Legends

Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world Life was an emotional knife It cut the flesh, it hit the bone It made reality a web of lies Life was a perpetual high Up on the wire without a net He couldn't balance so he took a dive When Vegas called he got the message far away They begged this worn out king to play The mighty fall, inside the measure of the day It's pitiful, it's all in vain Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world Life and its unbearable fire The night his mother passed away He poured his soul into her funeral pyre Life, through unforgettable eyes For though he tried to face the dark He lost the battle but he never dies He had it all somehow he let it slip away Much of his death is unexplained Now just a memory shines out beyond the grave Remembers all that now remains Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world Lingers on in the world... oh! (Guitar Solo) Oh! (Keyboard Solo) Oh, no! No! No! No! Oh! - Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done... oh!

Listen to the sound of the wind in the trees Falling down below like a lost melody Echoes that resound in the depths of my soul, beckon the blood to flow Listen to the cries of the wind in the eaves Every nerve exposed, only one remedy Deep within the vaults of the castle I roam and wait for the light to go I'm burnin' like a fire in the dark tonight Yeah, she put the knife through my tender heart Pyres in the dark tonight as I bleed... All I need is shelter from the night The love I buried deep within her eyes had passed and gone All I need is shelter from the light The quest within for peace, a thousand years, with a love to last eternity Listen to the sounds of a frost covered dream Children of the night whisper softly to me Caught against the white Transylvanian snow, calling me down below Listen to the sighs you were scared to believe Haunted by the ghost that my love never sees Searching every night that some day she might know, just how the feeling grows I'm burnin' like a fire in the dark tonight Yeah, she put the knife through my tender heart Pyres in the dark tonight, as I bleed... All I need is shelter from the night The love I buried deep within her eyes had passed and gone All I need is shelter from the light The quest within for peace, a thousand years, with a love to last eternity Yeah! All I need is shelter from the night The love I buried deep within her eyes had passed and gone All I need is shelter from the light The quest within for peace, a thousand years, with a love to last eternity All I need is shelter from the night The love I buried deep within her eyes had passed and gone All I need is shelter from the light The quest within for peace, a thousand years, with a love to last eternity Shelter from the night...

We fly the flag of freedom, we swore to crush all tyranny They speak their words of treason, we silence all such villainy History shall honour, we the brave Born to fight as heroes not be slaves, we do or die Destiny, take not these words in vein Men will curse they were not here this day to testify Sunrise! Sunrise! Clawing back its timeless reach Scores the black horizon, sleepless sunrise Paws the light in skyward breach Cuts the night in silence, seize the day The dawning sunlight carries a ray of hope to every man Across the fields and valleys to where a hundred thousand stand Crispin's day will live forever more Brave were those who fell at Agincourt, the dearly loved This shall be remembered as the place Few defeated many by the grace of god above Sunrise!

Just like a celluloid dream she burnt on acetate Stealing every last scene just smouldering away Tonight the radio said that now you've passed and gone As something deep inside breaks, your memory lingers on The face of the century, this cruel, twisted destiny A fatal intensity that crossed beyond control For what it appears to be is life taken needlessly Oh, but how much you mean to me, god only knows Tender is the night, I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream with nothing to say Tendrils of light covered whimsical vanity, render the white to grey Tender is the night and soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme of tears in the rain Slender is the knife on the wings of insanity, taking your life away They made a suicide claim with no one else to blame I know you must have cried out for help that never came On just how many broken dreams you built your life upon Remains a mystery and now your suffering has gone The face of the century, this beautiful entity A fatal intensity that crossed beyond control For what it appears to be is life taken needlessly Oh, but how much you mean to me, god only knows Tender is the night, I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream with nothing to say Tendrils of light covered whimsical vanity, render the white to grey Tender is the night and soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme of tears in the rain Slender is the knife on the wings of insanity, taking your life away As cruel as love is The face of the century, this cruel, twisted destiny A fatal intensity that crossed beyond control For what it appears to be is life taken needlessly Oh, but how much you mean to me, god only knows Tender is the night, I'm lost on the interstate Tender is the dream with nothing to say Tendrils of light covered whimsical vanity, render the white to grey Tender is the night and soft is the tourniquet Tender is the theme of tears in the rain Slender is the knife on the wings of insanity, taking your life away As cruel as love is

The light has gone Now it fades as just a memory and the shadows run From the petrified muses I gazed upon In pain, in such an anguish, frozen lives undone By the Gorgon Medusa, the soulless one, sealed their fate This silent throng So ordained by destiny, are now the 'lifeless ones' In the name of her sisters, revenge has come She slays with such an anger, serpent-headed one She's the last of the titans, her will be done, oh, feel the rage Caught in the mirrored reflection, I see her Shielding my eyes from the deadliest gaze Many have come where rock remains, testament here to medusa There is a way only now do I see it Lifeless grotesques of the galleried slain Carelessly met their end this way, playing a part in medusa's game She draws me on Dare to look upon my face, you fool, your time has come I'm the terror no darkness can shield you from Prepare to meet your maker mortal, turn to stone Let the shield be my eyes, soak my blade in blood, oh, into the fray Caught in the mirrored reflection, I see her Shielding my eyes from the deadliest gaze Many have come where rock remains, testament here to medusa There is a way only now do I see it Lifeless grotesques of the galleried slain It doesn't have to end this way, breaking the rules of Medusa's game

A golden silence reigned against the din Jason spoke of many things The seas of anguish, the lands of mystery That none before had ever seen At the edge of the world, earth shaking boulders Fall from the sky like a storm cloud of rain As the saga unfolds, fate stirs the cauldron Talos awaits until then, when... Drawn by the fleece of gold Legends and stories told, oh, of the Hydra Ground by these teeth of stone Destiny calling home, oh, to the Hydra He tore like canvas, as echoes from within Cursed the ropes that cut his skin He turned the Argo's, prow into the wind And laid a course for Talasyn For Athena looked down, over their shoulders Gentle protector and guardian of fate To a strange land they came, voyage weary soldiers Finding themselves face to fate Oh, drawn by the fleece of gold Legends and stories told, oh, of the Hydra Ground by these teeth of stone Destiny calling home, oh, to the Hydra At the edge of the world, earth shaking boulders Fall from the sky like a storm cloud of rain As the saga unfolds, fate stirs the cauldron Talos awaits until then Drawn by the fleece of gold Legends and stories told, oh, of the Hydra Ground by these teeth of stone Destiny calling home, oh, to the Hydra Drawn by the fleece of gold Legends and stories told, oh, of the Hydra Ground by these teeth of stone Destiny calling home, oh, to the Hydra Oh - to the Hydra!

Were the last of your tears drops in the ocean Do the dreams you conceal, guide the way? Is a past full of fear, bound by emotions? Till a time when the sun might turn those winter skies to summer nights How the last hundred years passed in a moment How the sepia scenes fade to grey Was the great lovers' dream crowned by devotion? As they climbed on a comet's tail across the sky that never dies For tonight is a beautiful night for love You and I, like the stars, collide together What a night, what a beautiful night for love Catch the moon as it falls into your hands, like precious sand From the rain battered hills Oh, I heard you calling on the mist covered fields, where we lay Then at last you appeared, caught for a moment For the light that I held for you through endless night, still burns bright For tonight is a beautiful night for love You and I, like the stars, collide together What a night, what a beautiful night for love Catch the moon as it falls into your hands, like precious sand Those summer nights Burning bright For tonight is a beautiful night for love You and I, like the stars, collide together What a night, what a beautiful night for love Catch the moon as it falls into your hands, like precious sand You're beautiful, you're beautiful tonight

Outside the moon is playing on star-like timpani I feel the gloom embracing this twilight symphony And still the brightest comet pales in the light from your eyes My love, I stand before you, transformed in masquerade I have become this creature, maimed by a twist of fate The opera house was burning, they thought I'd died, I survived! Darling sleep, be at peace with your dreams tonight Let their bittersweet threads weave the music of light Too late, this taste for romance, refrains of wasted hope Too late, too late, to take this starring role Betrayed, these faithless omens, berate this cameo Too late, too late, this face is scarred enough There can be no escaping, how can I set you free? I pray that your forgiveness might find its way to me See through this apparition, come look behind this disguise My Christine, you are more than my world could mean You've become my obsession, my reason, my life Too late, this taste for romance, refrains of wasted hope Too late, too late, to take this starring role Betrayed, these faithless omens, berate this cameo Too late, too late, this face is scarred enough Too late, this taste for romance, refrains of wasted hope Too late, too late, to take this starring role Betrayed, these faithless omens, berate this cameo Too late, too late, this face is scarred enough Too late, this taste for romance, refrains of wasted hope Too late, too late, to take this starring role Betrayed, these faithless omens, berate this cameo Too late, too late, this face is scarred enough Too late! - Too late!

Out in the streets, where the rumours flew The Second Coming of "you know who" But still they doubt as they stare at the face to believe Deep in the woods, long after dark Falling through the stratosphere, shining like a star They shoot to kill, for the questions come later, you see Oh, their god is logic in which nothing is divisible They stone the fake as he performs another miracle Lying in the gutter with his life-blood spilling again Oh, it's a world growing colder Life is a twin bladed knife Oh, every child born a soldier Fights, but is blind to see... the light Beneath the surface lurks a nightmare or two So dies a whale that broke the golden rule She trusted man, in return she's torn from the sea Treasure the loch secretly keeps Rises from its peaceful primeval depth sleep, yeah! Two thousand years to a circus cage tragedy Oh, are we laboratory torturers of innocence Or are we circumstantial victims of our own pretence Killers of a world, systematically eaten away Oh, it's a world growing colder Life is a twin bladed knife Oh, every child born a soldier Fights, but is blind to see... the light Children of night are the dreamers, carried away on a merciful sleep Let them slumber on, for tomorrow comes the day, yeah! Unwanted life is the reason, dawn and the gun finds them dead on the streets Naked in the sun, now the pain has gone away Oh, but I don't understand why only man brings suffering of this kind Are we so blind, we can't see the light? Oh! - Oh! - Yeah! Oh! - Oh! - Oh! It's not too late, we could break down the fear But choose indifference as the end draws near Not long to wait, the "piece de resistance" is here Chemical bombs, ashes to dust Every living creature dies, buildings ain't touched, no! It's not abuse, they were never developed to use I said a pointless civil war, a terrorist without a cause It's been so long that he's forgotten what he's fighting for Everybody screams, only no one's listening again Oh, it's a world growing colder Life is a twin bladed knife Oh, every child born a soldier Fights, but is blind to see Oh, it's a world on his shoulders Now better run for your life Oh, it's a frightful disclosure Search in your hearts to see... the light See the light!

Now the grain fields are fallow, as the dawn weaves her spell Threads of gold light, this sceptred of realms For the plough blades were shallow where the last blossom fell When the wind blows it whispers "farewell" There's a place where the mighty honour justice and peace This homeland where the heart is, 'decries not the beast' Where the green fields and valleys meet the wide open seas This proud land where the heart is, defines them to me Can a man's life be measured by the good he embraced? Are the years just the lines on his face? Must the seasons be treasured as we slowly decay When the love in a heart never fades There's a place where the mighty honour justice and peace This homeland where the heart is, 'decries not the beast' Where the green fields and valleys meet the wide open seas This proud land where the heart is, defines them to me (Guitar Solo) There's a place where the mighty honour justice and peace This homeland where the heart is, 'decries not the beast' Where the green fields and valleys meet the wide open seas This proud land where the heart is, defines them to me There's a place where the mighty honour justice and peace This homeland where the heart is, 'decries not the beast' Where the green fields and valleys meet the wide open seas
