Theatre of the Damned

The doors are closed and locked down, the actors have gone home, Players from an era, return to claim their own, Voices in the darkness, noises on the stage, Lights like dancing pin-points, from a by-gone age. This Theatre will always be, part of you and part of me, Join me there and you will see, supernatural entity, They're waiting there for me, Theatre of the Damned. I feel them all around me, in the fabric of the walls, I see them and I hear them, they walk about these halls, The stage is set and ready, to enact their ghostly play, To an audience of no-one, and never seen by day. This Theatre will always be, part of you and part of me, Join me there and you will see, supernatural entity, They're waiting there for me, Theatre of the Damned. They took me and I stayed here, I'll never leave this place, We're gone before the morning, gone without a trace, Then the old Caretaker, when he came to look around, Lying 'neath the trapdoor, my body it was found. This Theatre will always be, part of you and part of me, Join me there and you will see, supernatural entity, They're waiting there for me, Theatre of the Damned.

His greatest work, his Opera, his heart and soul, Was stolen by, the one he thought, would cast the role, Insane with hate and anger, burned the Print-Shop to the ground, Badly burned, he fled to safety, hidden deep below the ground. Searching for The Phantom, Ghost-like in the hall, Waiting for The Phantom, to arrive at the curtain call. His music played, that haunting sound, had reached his ears, Angelic voice, she sang his words, so he drew near, He watched her as she faltered, he vowed he'd put that right, The Phantom of the Opera, filled them all with dread that night. Searching for The Phantom, Ghost-like in the hall, Waiting for The Phantom, to arrive at the curtain call. He made her sing, without a rest, in fear and Hell, Until she sang so perfectly, he'd taught her well, He watched her whole performance, full of pride he turned to go, He slipped and fell in silence, down to the stage below. Lifeless, lies The Phantom, Lying there, after the fall, Gazing at The Phantom, A broken man, not a ghost at all.

It's hard to believe, I didn't see this coming, You're Devil's Spawn, in a Saint's disguise, Look at you now, you're taking control, You think you're so high, but I see you falling. Look at the World, Son of Satan, It's not yours to take, cos I am in your way. You're a silver-tongued serpent, with eyes of fire, The strength of a demon, and a head full of lies, You strike at my heart, your eyes are ablaze, You're wanting it all, but you have nothing. Look at the World, Son of Satan, It's not yours to take, cos I am in your way. You strike at my heart, your eyes are ablaze, You think you're so high, but I see you falling. Look at the World, Son of Satan, It's not yours to take, cos I am in your way. Look at the World, Son of Satan, It's not yours to take, cos I am in your way.

My life is full of danger, all the World's my stage, I am their eyes, surprise is my way of life, I won't stop 'til I'm done, I get to know their secrets, the things they try to hide, Tap the phone, alone make good my escape, I won't rest until I've won. Carry no passengers, don't take no prisoners, No-one can tell me, which way to go. So now I've come to see you, my mission's reached the end, Won't change my mind, I'll find the things that I need Silence won't take my voice, You've pushed me to the limit, you tell me I can't go, I won't be filed, indexed, briefed or debriefed, I'm still free to make my choice. Carry no passengers, don't take no prisoners, No-one can tell me, which way to go. I think it's time to walk away, I'll live to fight another day, Don't stand in my way, I won't do it any more, What did I ever do this for, My life is my own. I won't do it any more - I resign!

In the Occult Shop window, was the guitar he wanted to own, They said it belonged to a "Legend", he bought it and he took it home, It took control of his fingers, when he played it, it gave him a scare, He took it back where he bought it, the shop was no longer there. Possession could be nine-tenths of its law, The Spirit of the Legend is immortal, The soul inside the guitar, will go on, on and on. He played the guitar like a Demon, it filled an insatiable need, He couldn't stop for an instant, playing till his fingers bleed, No time for sleeping and eating, he knew that something was wrong, He was playing the guitar, but who was writing the songs? Possession could be nine-tenths of its law, The Spirit of the Legend is immortal, The soul inside the guitar, will go on, on and on. His body and mind were both broken, insane, they locked him inside, They gave the guitar to a stranger, they said it was gone and he cried, In the Occult Shop window, the guitar was back on display, Another kid came and saw it, he bought it and took it away. Possession could be nine-tenths of its law, The Spirit of the Legend is immortal, The soul inside the guitar, will go on, on and on.

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

In the morning they found him there, he'd passed in the night, No-one there to hold his hand, he's alone, His room is filled with memories, echoes of his life, Will he be remembered, he's gone. He looks down: he sees himself, lying there and wonders at the sight, He looks again: he knows it's time, For him to go and that will make it right, Into the Light, Into the Light. At the graveside no-one there, who will shed a tear? The Priest will speak his words aloud, to God, His mind is full of broken dreams: he will take them on, To the ones that passed before, his time. He looks down: he sees himself, lying there and wonders at the sight, He looks again: he knows it's time, For him to go and that will make it right, Into the Light, Into the Light. I am the Resurrection and the Life said the Lord, He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live, And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die, We commend to Almighty God, our brother James, And we commit his body to the ground, Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, The Lord bless him and keep him, The Lord lift up His countenance upon him and give him peace! He looks down: he sees himself, lying there and wonders at the sight, He looks again: he knows it's time, For him to go and that will make it right, Into the Light, Into the Light, He will go on... Into the Light!

You know, I want to tell you something, I think that it is something, You really ought to know, The secret, behind your eyes is shining, The Pact that you are signing, with the Gatherer of Souls. Your heart's desire is what you'll earn, He'll take your soul down in return. He takes you to, those Tortured Souls, Hell burns all, those Tortured Souls. Satan, is sitting there, he's smiling, And you will see him smiling, before he turns to go, The screaming, becomes the words he's spoken, The Lost have all been broken, by the Gatherer of Souls. Your heart's desire is what you'll earn, He'll take your soul down in return. He takes you to, those Tortured Souls, Hell burns all, those Tortured Souls. You will be with, those Tortured Souls, Eternally, with those Tortured Souls.

My love for you will never end, I love you more each day, Sometimes I may not say enough, the words that I should say, Please don't feel that you're alone, I'm always there for you, To keep you safe and happy, and say that I love you. We share a life, it's come what may, Look at us now, is what we say. Together we are strong, I'm nothing without you, Our love will last forever. We've shared the good and the bad, but that's the test of time, It makes me feel so happy, to know that you are mine, We watch the years go flowing by, together we'll grow old, You are my special lady, if I may be so bold. We share a love, come take my hand, Give me your heart, I am your man. You took the man I was, and made me what I am, And showed me what I could be. Together we are strong, I'm nothing without you, Our love will last forever.

Darkness is the shroud that he wears, Always taking care in the shadows, Searching like a thief in the night, Black hearts learn the meaning of fear. Night Wing comes down, and looks around, he'll be there, He makes them pay, it's his way, he will care. He keeps the peace, he's the voice of the Law, No need to fear, if you've nothing to hide. Always just ahead of the Law, His enemies are all law-breakers, Captured at the scene of their crime, He leaves them for the Law to arrive. Night Wing comes down, and looks around, he'll be there, He makes them pay, it's his way, he will care. He keeps the peace, he's the voice of the Law, No need to fear, if you've nothing to hide. Night Wing comes down, and looks around, he'll be there, He makes them pay, it's his way, he will care. He keeps the peace, he's the voice of the Law, No need to fear, if you've nothing to hide.

Fire! It’s a holocaust coming from the East, A great angry bird, spreading its word, And we’re gonna be its feast, The sky will be red and the ground will shake, The day of Judgement has come, Armageddon has arrived. CHORUS Who will balance my life against yours? Who will hold my soul in his hand? Who will deliver me to the Devil? Who can rid the Earth of this evil? The World is in the bloody hands of Fate, Warheads burn, they can’t return, The hour is too late, The Sands of Time are running dry, The bird is in full flight, Armageddon has arrived. CHORUS Marching, marching, off to war we go, Leading, leading, our bloody seeds to sow, Onward, onward, life is bloody fine, Marching, marching, We haven’t got much time, Atomic rain falls from the sky, To wash blood from the land, Frightened children are praying, The sky is red with the Fires of Hell, Destiny is stillborn, Destiny is stillborn. Frightened children, They’re scared to Hell, They’ve heard the tolling of The Great Black Bell, They’re so scared, They’re scared to Hell. Frightened children, They’re scared to Hell, They’ve heard that Satan has a tale to tell, They’re so scared, They’re scared to Hell. Fire!

Let us have peace, let us have life, Let us escape the cruel night. Let us have time, let the sun shine, Let us beware the deadly sign. The day is coming, armageddon's near, Inferno's coming, can we survive the blitzkrieg. The blitzkrieg, the blitzkrieg. Save us from fate, save us from hate, Save ourselves before it's too late. Come to our need, hear our plea, Save ourselves before the earth bleeds. The day is dawning, the time is near, Aliens calling, can we survive the blitzkrieg.
