Over the Wall Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been a prisoner
Trapped in by fear
Ordered for the rest of my life
Condemned in a jail cell
Ain't seen life in years
Escape is the only way out
[Chorus]
Restart my life or self destruction
To climb this wall of dark construction
Holding the quest for freedom
That beckons me
[Verse 2]
My sanity is all but gone
My patience is growing very weak
I need to get a hold of myself
I stare at the wall
For the right time to come
Escape must occur on this night
[Chorus]
Restart my life or self destruction
To climb this wall of dark construction
Holding the quest for freedom
That beckons me
[Verse 3]
Stand in my way
And I'll run you straight through
There's no one to stop me now
For I'm on the loose
And I'm ready to start
Torture and hell on this town
[Bridge]
Over the wall
[Verse 4]
The search will not stop
And the hounds will not rest
Till I am back in my cell
For if I am caught, I will try it again
Over the wall I will go, I will go
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Restart my life or self destruction
To climb this wall of dark construction
Holding the quest for freedom
That beckons me
[Outro]
Over the wall
Burnt Offerings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Summoned to the house of séance
To play the evil tarot cards
To find out what our fate will bring us
Before the war
Approaching now the hour of Tiamat
Evil feeling in the air
The chosen waits impatiently
[Chorus 1]
To find the rituals of power
Come out of the fire
Making the legacy known
Predicted by the past
Takes its toll at last
Not knowing when it strikes
[Verse 2]
The endless feuding shows its fate
The people are all shocked with fright
They know the end is coming near
It's time to fight
The revolution holds on strong
The armies have all met their match
Entire world up in arms
[Chorus 2]
Destruction sees the spirits of anger
Come up from the gallows
Conjured, my demons appear
Summoned to my cast, prey this deadly mass
Taken by the fire, you fall
[Verse 3]
The world became a vast wasteland
Survivors turned to cannibals
Killing everything in sight
Warfare tonight
The armies are all closing in
The population's getting small
The feelings are as cold as ice
Survival names its price
[Bridge]
Starting to burn
The rape and the violence grows high
A kingdom will rise
To rule with contempt
They will surprise
Kill and repent
The weakness in armies
Won't die!
Won't die!
Won't die!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Leaving now the house of séance
Speculating destiny
Wonder if the cards were true
We'll wait to find out, and we'll wait to see!
Do or Die Lyrics
9 ContributorsDo or Die LyricsLiving my life on borrowed time
Watching my dreams disappear
My fists slowly clench
As my mind seeks control
My body trembles in fear
Life was looking up for me
When I left home
Seems like yesterday
Now I'll never go back there again
Here is where I'll stay
Nobody can hear you scream or shout
Once you're in you won't come out
You will never see the light of day
I'm the hunter you're my prey!
Watching the clash between
The forces below
From up in the planes we're flying
Survivors are taken as prisoners of war
The others are slowly dying
I shiver as we strap on our parachutes
We line up to jump out the door
We're already here and there's no turning back
I fall to scene of the war
Nobody can hear you scream or shout
Once you're in you won't come out
You will never see the light of day
I'm the hunter you're my prey!
You can see me
Flying right over you head
Try to stop me
You can't cause your armies are dead
To cross blood red
Trenches of the dead below
Do or die
Hell's the place you'll go
Living my life on borrowed time
Watching my dreams disappear
My fists slowly clench
As my mind seeks control
My body trembles in fear
Life was looking up for me
When I left home
Seems like yesterday
Now I'll never go back there again
Here is where I'll stay
Nobody can hear you scream or shout
Once you're in you won't come out
You will never see the light of day
I'm the hunter you're my prey!
