I wake in sweat you've come to steal my life away Some strange electric glow of artificial day The power breakers close, the grid of darkness falls Shining gleaming black as night, burning all the light What do you want from me? I sense your mastery... There's something you won't ever find So have your way with me, this prisoner is never free Rip me up, leave me behind..... Are you the truth to sit in judgement on my sins Evil laser gadgets come to penetrate my skin The hanging judge is open and I'm damned before his eyes Another genesis that failed - how many more have tried? What do you want from me? I sense your mastery... There's something you won't ever find So have your way with me, this prisoner is never free Rip me up, leave me behind..... And so the story goes I dreamt this long ago Highways hidden in the sands reveal the truths I know They took my worthless heart and spat it through their eyes Abduction means the end for me, a million years of misery... What do you want from me? I sense your mastery... There's something you won't ever find So have your way with me, this soldier's lost his victory Rip me up, leave me behind.....

We ride the cosmic streams of time We are the fools you came to trust We blind the eyes of history We tear ourselves down from your cross Half lives... We live again..... Half lives........... Now we are one........... We're the Soul Intruders In the whirling void of night We're the Soul Intruders And we're crying for the light We're the Soul Intruders With no life of our own I'm a sole survivor, but who sits on my throne? Solar winds have taken hold Blowing us where we do not know Existence silent and unknown Father son and viral host Half lives Eat but never kill Half lives We live as well........ We're the Soul Intruders In the whirling void of night We're the Soul Intruders And we're crying for the light We're the Soul Intruders With no life of our own I'm a sole survivor, but who sits on my throne?

Blood brothers of angels now hear us, We earthbound your offspring, don't fear us God willing, we'll raise up, be near you So open, your arms now, and take us So we're breathing our dreams, like the Icarus of old The plans we made for the bold In the blue eyed beyond, there is nowhere to hide There is no going back now As the wind whips over the hillside 20 knots over Kill Devil Hill Steady wind blows over the sands 20 knots over Kill Devil Hill As the breeze whips straight as an arrow Let her go over Kill Devil Hill Gasoline and wind in the wires Kill Devil Hill and the way to the stars We stand on this seashore and wonder What madness, what secrets, we plunder All failure we learn from, discovery The wreckage of heaven lies on the sand First chances abandoned With wood string and wire we can barely control our desire For destiny's arrows........ As the wind whips over the hillside 20 knots over Kill Devil Hill Steady wind blows over the sands 20 knots over Kill Devil Hill As the breeze whips straight as an arrow Let her go over Kill Devil Hill Gasoline and wind in the wires Kill Devil Hill and the way to the stars There are no secrets, only our dreams There are no secrets, only our dreams There are no secrets, only our dreams There are no secrets, only our dreams

Distant earthrise long ago Lingers at the borders of our minds Mysteries spinning in the dark In the frozen emptiness of time We were lost and we never knew Who we were and what we left behind Living half lives we were blind To the new frontiers that opened up our eyes To find our minds were spinning Souls entwined in a spiral dance The ancient ways have found us, again To give us one last chance Living in this place, staring into space we find We might share the corners of our lives Infinity runs deep, eternity that we can't keep Melting through the frozen wastes of time So we go and will not return To navigate the seas of the sun Our children will go on and on To navigate the seas of the sun So we go and will not return To navigate the seas of the sun Our children will go on and on To navigate the seas of the sun We can't go on tomorrow, living death by gravity Couldn't stand it anymore We sail our ships to distant shores Purple gold and blue Living colors every hue Flowers in the garden of the gods No one can ever know If you never saw them grow This darkness, is really full of light Well beyond the earth Beyond all things that gave us birth We'll navigate the seas of the sun If god is throwing dice And Einstein doesn't mind the chance We'll navigate the seas of the sun Infinity runs deep, eternity that we can't keep We'll navigate the seas of the sun Flowers of our souls, purple blue and gold we find To navigate the seas of the sun So we know who we are even in this frozen waste We'll navigate the seas of the sun Living in this place, staring into space we find We'll navigate the seas of the sun Well beyond the earth Beyond all things that gave us birth We'll navigate the seas of the sun If Einstein is throwing dice And god doesn't mind the chance We'll navigate the seas of the sun Flowers of our souls, purple blue and gold we find To navigate the seas of the sun And who we were before Eternity that we can't keep We'll navigate the seas of the sun

Break the bread and drink the wine Seize the chalice, suck the poison vine There is frost, in every sunbeam Water flows, from the earth to sky Looking down on every rose Nothing moves the wheel of heaven turns As our fingers leave their trace We are gods in a world we dared embrace Now we're lost, you can't disguise, the river of no return Now it's gone, you realize, the river of no return Glowing embers of our ancient lives We struggle hard, we live to turn the tide Living longer in the astral waste We stare each other, we look death in the face All my life, in front of you Lonely secrets hidden from your view Now we orbit a different sun For eternity, doomed to tell no one Now we're lost, you can't disguise, the river of no return Now it's gone, you realize, the river of no return Now I'm truly all alone Canyon walls and the river of no return I'm amazed at what I am I never knew, the feelings I ignored Now we're lost, you can't disguise, the river of no return Now it's done, we realize, the river of no return And the anguish drives me on, I wish I could return All the love, that washed away Down the river of no return

Is this a citadel, is this a prison cell? Who sits at my right hand, who's watching me now? Who made us live this way, when do I get my say Automation turns us into human beings now Tripping over faces, humanity has fallen Huddled into doorways on the streets at dawn The power of the sun, keeps us moving on Spinning ever faster The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls Already in the past Every dawn arrives, the gathering of the tribes Shattered waves of people breaking over city walls Never out of touch, but always on your own Trapped inside the logic of your own communication zone What deals have been done, who's under the gun Stay one step ahead of the next in line The power of the sun, it keeps us moving on Spinning ever faster The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls Already in the past The cameras never lie, the ghost of you and I, already in the past Inside a picture frame, we'll vanish once again Now the dawn is coming fast... The power of the sun, it keeps us moving on Spinning ever faster The city never sleeps, the echoes of the footfalls Already in the past

You wanna know where legends live? At the rainbows end I'll be there, There's a place in innerspace..... That's where I'll get to you I'm not the shy retiring kind I'm like a supernova for the blind I used to sit at God's right hand But I quit that show yo do my one night Stands.... Coming outta nowhere I'm a Godhead rider..... You won't see my face no more My machine has left the floor Leave my rivals in the dirt I've seen your world and I got the shirt..... Before I leave and go my way I loved it but I couldn't stay There's nothing left for you to feel Just remember me..... You might see me in Tokyo To the rings of Saturn hey.....Let's go And you can trip all the lights with me But your one time chance is never free....... I'll see you baby once again Maybe 3 score years and ten...... I'll be driving a different ship That's when I'll take you down, for your final Trip............ Coming outta nowhere I'm a Godhead rider..... You won't see my face no more My machine has left the floor Leave my rivals in the dirt I've seen your world and I got the shirt..... Before I leave and go my way I loved it but I couldn't stay There's nothing left for you to feel Just remember me..... Coming outta nowhere I'm a Godhead rider..... Coming outta nowhere I'm a Godhead rider..... You won't see my face no more My machine has left the floor Leave my rivals in the dirt I've seen your world and I got the shirt..... Before I leave and go my way I loved it but I couldn't stay There's nothing left for you to feel Just remember me.....

Smoking, resting on its grave, The carcass rusting where it lies, No more truth, no honest games, The serpent writhes within us all, Lava streams of molten flesh, Into their mountain homes retire, Now sleeping eyes of death awake, Your drug of choice, truth or lie, I believe, you and me, I believe, evil, I believe, you will see, I believe, evil, What does not kill it, Makes it strong, The carcass stirs it will not die, It feeds on you, It feeds on me, I know his name..........you know mine too, I believe, you and me, I believe, evil, I believe, you will see, I believe, evil, I believe, you and me, I believe, evil, I believe, you will see, I believe, evil,

When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning or in rain? When the hurly-burly's done When the battles lost not won A tyranny of souls, that love has lost A tyranny of souls, a Pentecost Speak in tongues of fire Inflaming our desires, watching as we die... Who rips the child out from the womb? Who raised the dagger who plays the tune? At the crack of doom on Judgment Day No ocean could wash my sins away A tyranny of souls, that love has lost A tyranny of souls, a Pentecost Speak in tongues of fire Inflaming our desires, watching as we die on our own cross A tyranny of souls We are the black space, we are the black light We shine where no others dare Killing my head with the neon, suffering my fate for no reason No is a relative stranger to my life Deeds of the faithful, seeds of betrayal Hammer the nail into my hand, anger is ruler in my land I am the killer of weakness in my head We are the black light We are the black space A tyranny of souls, that love has lost A tyranny of souls, a Pentecost Speak in tongues of fire Inflaming our desires, watching as we die on our own cross A tyranny of souls, that love has lost A tyranny of souls, a Pentecost Speak in tongues of fire Inflaming our desires, watching as we die
