The Burning Complete Lyrics

City of Fallen Angels Lyrics

[Chorus]
I'll leave it all behind, the future's still untold
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love can judge me now
This blood runs through my veins, mixed up and left for dead
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love, only love can judge me now
 
In the garden of Eden there's blood on the ground
Hiding like stealth, never making a sound
You wait for a moment, a moment that just never comes
 
 
And you say you're reliable as you read from the bible
But I got to leave, this means nothing to me
I want to see a faith in humanity born
 
[Chorus]
I'll leave it all behind, the future's still untold
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love can judge me now
This blood runs through my veins, mixed up and left for dead
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love, only love can judge me now
 
And when the silence gets too loud, there's an aching in your soul
I pray for you with all my might, you are my best friend
You say you're at peace right now and there could be no other
You are just like a brother, you are just like a brother to me
 
[Chorus]
I'll leave it all behind, the future's still untold
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love can judge me now
This blood runs through my veins, mixed up and left for dead
Don't let it pass me by, 'cause only love, only love can judge me now

Elysium Lyrics

[Pre-Chorus]
Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know
 
[Chorus]
All I havе witnessed in my life
Don't lеt forgiveness walk on by
Pay the price for the things we do
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe
 
Black clouds gather from the past
Release me from the stone I cast
Wonder stands in front of me now
I can see such beauty inside you
 
 
Only made of skin and blood
Hold on to the things we love
Walk the line, but walk it straight
Elevate yourself to new horizons
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know
 
[Chorus]
All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
 
[Chorus]
All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe
 
 
Don't forsake me now
Don't leave me on my own
Need you more than I can say
So afraid to feel this way

Lightning Lyrics

[Solo]
 
To reach so high!
Come talk to me
It's pretend, it's make believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over God
 
There's life in your eyes
Can your truth cut through these lies
You show me the way
I choose life over death
 
The innocent who have a past
I see no future that will last
May you shine, forever glow
May you reap what you sow
The future is for those who believe
In the beauty of their dreams
My ancestors long and gone
But you can see them in my eyes

Spit Fire Lyrics

[Chorus]
Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise
 
Where joined by fate, a bond by blood
You give me strength, can you feel my love
A flame will burn through mist and fog
A serenade I hear that siren song
 
 
I have so many dreams
Don't take them away from me
 
[Chorus]
Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise
 
And we were born to ride the storm
But some of us, we walk alone
Hear the sound, a distant song
Through wind and rain I walk alone
 
[Chorus]
Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new day will rise
 
[Chorus]
Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's blackness inside your eyes
And men behind mask stealing our thoughts
From the ashes a new day will rise
 
 
[Chorus]
Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise

Land of the Perfect People Lyrics

[Pre-Chorus]
Left in the wasteland, nobody knows where he came from
A girl all alone, a man from a far away land
That's how he come about
 
[Chorus 1]
They say: "Get out, get out
Don't come around here
Wе don't need your kind being around here
Don't carе if you're hungry
We don't care at all"
 
[Chorus 2]
"This is the land of the perfect people
You don't belong around here"
 
 
Life ain't simple
Life can be tough
When your face don't fit in
You spend your life on the run
You're not wanted anywhere
All you want in your life is somebody to care
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Left in the wasteland, nobody knows where he came from
A girl all alone, a man from a far away land
 
[Chorus]
They say: "Get out, get out
Don't come around here
We don't need your kind being around here
Don't care if you're hungry
We don't care at all"
 
[Chorus 2]
"This is the land of the perfect people
You don't belong around here"
 
You don't belong
You don't belong
You don't belong around here
You'd better run
 
 
Run, run, run away
Run, run, run away
Run away
 
[Chorus]
"Get out, get out
Don't come around here
We don't need your kind being around here
Don't care if you're hungry
We don't care at all"
 
[Chorus]
"Get out, get out
Don't come around here
We don't need your kind being around here
Don't care if you're hungry
We don't care at all"
 
[Chorus 2]
"This is the land of the perfect people
You don't belong around here"
"This is the land of the perfect people
And you don't belong around here"
