Life Cycles Lyrics
Dragon Spell
I'm still the king, of, the world,
I'll never falter, or squander my dreams, i've still got control, over my enemies,
They still beg me for mercy, show no mercy, show no mercy,
I've fought for this kingdom, i'll take hold of what is mine,
I'll be the lord of the universe, if you want me, i'm right here!
I'd give everything, everything that I had,
There's always a war within me, i'd never let it show,
I'll never let my family down, fight for what you stand for
I feel further than a thousand oceans, my thoughts are, eating at me now,
I have so much, riding on me, to be the man I was born to be,
This is a family, we won't crumble in the face of our enemies,
This is a family, we won't crumble in the face of our enemies,
This is a family, don't fuck with family!
We won't fall, I will not ever let this kingdom fall,
I'd give everything, everything that I had,
There's always a war within me, i'd never let it show,
I'll never let my family down, fight for what you stand for,
If you were me, would you stand strong, would you fold,
(My sacrifice, my sacrifice!)
I've never given up, for those I loved, back home,
(My sacrifice, my sacrifice!)
Your dreams have come to an end,
Because this was mine, and I won't give in,
Your dreams have come to an end,
Because this was mine, and I won't give in,
Your dreams have come, to, an end!
I'll never lose sight, in what I believe,
I'll fight for my friends, my family! we won't fall,
I'd give everything, everything that I had,
There's always a war within me, i'd never let it show,
I'll never let my family down, fight for what you stand for
If you were me, would you stand strong, would you fold,
(My sacrifice, my sacrifice!)
I've never given up, for those I loved, back home,
(My sacrifice, my sacrifice!)
I'm still the, king of the world, i'm still the, king of the world!
Wishmaster
(We're here to fight) we're here to die, we're here to save your life,
We're here to fight, we're here to die, we're here to save your life,
What do we say, when our backs are, up against the wall,
The empire remains, and it will, always, we've come from all over the world,
We are the ones who, stand as one (Side by side!)
If any man here, fear their demise, then we've already lost! bleh!
We're here to save, the world,
And above all else, we'll hunt the ones,
Who, seek to destroy it (We're here!)
You're not alone, can't be defeated,
We'll protect you, when all others fail!
Tell me now, what, would you give up,
My family, friends, for a brotherhood,
Who stands to gain if we survive,
You probably weren't born, just to give your life,
Welcome to my life, if you make it, through today, you might survive!
And above all else, we'll hunt the ones,
Who, seek to destroy it (We're here!)
You're not alone, can't be defeated,
We'll protect you, when all others fail,
I can't believe, the cost of what is right, reach for the light,
Know that we are here, we'll always survive
If you come, ill prepared to die, you've already, lost,
If you come here, and you give up, you've already, lost, lost the fight,
Welcome to my life, you might survive, you might survive!
And above all else, we'll hunt the ones,
Who, seek to destroy it (We're here!)
You're not alone, can't be defeated,
We'll protect you, when all others fail,
I can't believe, the cost of what is right, reach for the light,
Know that we are here, we'll always survive
You might survive, you might survive, welcome to my life,
You might survive, you might survive!
Entirety
You're all I have,
You're all I, have!
I can't decide, if I love it or hate it, now it's a part, of me,
Warmer now, I feel you within me (Whoa-oh-ohh) it keeps creeping deeper,
It's not something, you can prepare for, I tried to fight it off, kept pulling me in,
I think I found that, one in a million, and I can't breathe!
You're all I have, and I haven't trusted anyone,
Finding out, feeling isn't easy (You're all I have)
This is more than I deserve, I know, i've just gotta believe
You didn't seem to care, when I distanced myself,
So here's the real, me, you didn't seem to notice, when I looked away,
You wanted to show me, how to believe! (How to believe!)
You're all I have, and I haven't trusted anyone,
Finding out, feeling isn't easy (You're all I have)
This is more than I deserve, I know, i've just gotta believe
Feelings are a deadly thing,
When you fail to give yourself to something (Whoa-oh-ohh)
You may never know what it's like, to lose everything,
If I lost you, i'd lose, everything! (Whoa-oh-ohh)
Give yourself, and you'll start to believe,
That there was meaning, that you can trust what you see (Whoa-oh-ohh)
Give yourself, and you'll start to believe,
That there was meaning, that you can trust what you see, you're all I have!
You're all I have, and I haven't trusted anyone,
Finding out, feeling isn't easy (Whoa-oh-ohh)
This is more than I deserve, I know, i've just gotta believe (You're all I have)
You're all I have, this is more than I deserve (Whoa-oh-ohh)
You're all I have, feeling isn't easy, this is more than I deserve!
You're all I have, and I haven't trusted anyone,
Finding out, feeling isn't easy (You're all I have)
This is more than I deserve, I know, i've just gotta believe,
You're all I, have! (Whoa-oh-ohh)
For Your Health
I don't understand, why, but the view from here,
Is much different when, you're alone,
But the view from here, is all i've ever known, ever known!
I didn't know, if this was meant to be, perfect strangers, taking ahold of, me!
I was searching for the answers right in front of me!
I don't know, if this is meant to be, was it fate that, chose me to, lead!
Is the answer right in front, of me, I think this is, what completes me!
We are, still here (We are, right here!) so many have come and gone,
We are, still here, finding out what makes a man,
What makes a man, these patterns and these thoughts,
They seem to control me, control me!
I can't define what, keeps me going,
Alone in a crowd, but the lights, are glowing!
I keep hiding behind what's in front of me!
What is wrong, with me, am I driven to feel, this way!
Is the answer right in front, of me, I think this is, what completes me!
We are, still here (We are, right here!) so many have come and gone,
We are, still here, finding out what makes a man,
We are, still here (We are still here, ohh..) we are, still here
Pretend to, like those around me,
People smiling, secretly seething,
I pretend, I don't hear their voices,
As they betray, without boundaries!
We are, still here
We are, still here (We are, right here!) so many have come and gone,
We are, still here, finding out what makes a man,
We all know, what it means to come home (Come home) we are, right here,
We all know, what it means to come home (Come home) we are, right here,
We are still here, we are still here!
Bar Fight
Am I still a burden to you now, am I still a burden,
Am I still a burden to you now, fading away,
From sight and sound, what will you say,
When they take me away, what will you say,
You should have listened,
You should have been more careful,
Your words forced love to crumble,
You should have been more careful!
Now you'll live with regret, for the rest of your life,
Gave up, when you should have stayed,
Now you'll live with regret, for the rest of your life,
Gave up, when you should have stayed, this is goodbye, goodbye!
It's so simple, when I tried to explain, you didn't believe,
It's so simple, it's so simple,
Oh why, do, people run, let's not live life this way,
Let's not live life this way
What was the purpose, of your, destruction,
Will you sleep, sound at night,
I kept begging, for the answers,
You could not seem to reply,
You could have saved a life!
Now you'll live with regret, for the rest of your life,
Gave up, when you should have stayed,
Now you'll live with regret, for the rest of your life,
Gave up, when you should, have, stayed!
It's so simple, when I tried to explain, you didn't believe,
It's so simple, it's so simple,
Oh why, do, people run, let's not live life this way,
Let's not live life this way
How could you, be so naive,
Not even death, could save you from, me,
Not even death, could save you, from me,
I tried and tried, to show you the light,
You could have saved, a, life!
It's so simple, when I tried to explain, you didn't believe, it's so simple,
Oh why, do, people run, let's not live life this way,
Let's not live life this way,
Oh why, do, people run, let's not live life this way,
I just wanted you to stay,
It's so simple, when I tried to explain, you didn't believe,
It's so simple, it's so simple,
Oh why, do, people run, let's not live life this way
Life Cycles
I'd rather die, for what I believe, than live a life without meaning,
I'd rather die, for what I believe, than live a life without meaning,
I'd rather die, for what I believe, than live a life without meaning,
I'd rather die, for what I believe, than live a life without meaning
Ohh! and now, that i'm older, and now that i'm older,
I'm finding out how, what it means, to start over, well, it's never gonna be that easy,
I've searched and searched, but the searchlights have left me,
I've tried to find a way, I swear i've tried, all I have left is you by my side!
So please take the time, to get inside my mind, i've longed for the lights,
I've stayed awake, stayed awake, through the nights, what if this is all I have,
What if this, is all, that's left, what if this is all that's left, all that's left!
And now, that i'm older, and now that i'm older,
I'm finding out how, what it means, to start over, I never thought I would,
I'm finding out how, what it means, to start over,
Now that i'm older, i'm finding out how, what it means, to start over,
So can you feel it now, beneath the surface where the shadows dwell,
You can't hide from the path, you chose,
So take it in, take it in, all the burdens of the world!
I never thought, i'd end up this way,
I never thought, I could fall so far away, so far away!
And now, that i'm older, and now that i'm older,
I'm finding out how, what it means, to start over, I never thought I would,
I'm finding out how, what it means, to start over,
Now that i'm older, i'm finding out how, what it means, to start over
I'm starting, over, i'm starting, over,
I'd rather die, for what I believe, than live a life without meaning, meaning, oh!
I'm starting over!
Evolution
I'm back for more, the stories ready for it's final twist,
Ready for it's final twist, I finally see what it means,
To cut you out, from the peace i've lived without!
I've tried to see this through, so many times before,
But you've always had a way, of reeling me back, back for more,
Back for more, of your fucking, deceiving eyes,
I can't describe how much I despised my life,
I can't explain how much, I wished you'd fucking, die,
Wished you'd fucking, die!
I wanna know what you're thinking,
When you find yourself alone,
Do you even know, what it means, to be loved
I'm back for more, I wanna tear you apart,
I want to see you, fall to the floor,
I wanna watch as you reach, out your hand for mercy,
And then you'll, finally breathe no more,
Breathe no more!
Tell me, what the hell were you thinking,
Realize at best, you're disgusting!
I wanna know what you're thinking,
When you find yourself alone,
Do you even know, what it means, to be loved,
I never thought that i'd find a way to say to you, I couldn't take anymore,
I'd become something I hated to face everyday, I couldn't take anymore
Can't take anymore,
I'm not me, anymore, can't take anymore,
If you want me, drag me to hell, drag me to hell,
If you have the chance, slash your wrists!
I do believe, you love the misery,
I wanna know what you're thinking,
When you find yourself alone,
Do you even know, what it means, to be loved,
I never thought that i'd find a way to say to you, I couldn't take anymore,
I'd become something I hated to face everyday, I couldn't take anymore
I'm back for more, i'm back for more,
I'm back for more! (I'm back for more)
Hidden Lakes
You may not, make it home, tonight, you may not, last another, fight,
You may not, make it home, tonight, when you meet your end,
Walk towards the light, walk towards the light,
Together, together, we'll always be,
In life and death I will, always have peace,
I believe you're here with me, you're here, with me (With me..)
Knowing you found the way, before the end, has allowed me to live!
Sometimes, you'll think of me and say,
I miss you, the stories you'd tell me,
You'll wish we had more time, you got to say, goodbye,
Don't forget, don't forget, what I told you,
You gotta live, gotta live like I, showed you,
I'm proud of who you are, it's not too late, it's not too late
Sometimes I wonder, if you're looking down,
Have I strayed too far, because i'm longing!
To find the truth i've always known, show the way,
The way to you, I have so much I need to say, what, would you say,
Knowing you found the way, before the end, has allowed me to live!
Sometimes, you'll think of me and say,
I miss you, the stories you'd tell me,
You'll wish we had more time, you got to say, goodbye,
Don't forget, don't forget, what I told you,
You gotta live, gotta live like I, showed you,
I'm proud of who you are, it's not too late, it's not too late
If you're still there, pick me up, empower, me, to stand alone,
I'm coming home, i'm coming home, I wonder if, you'll be, there!
(I miss you, I wonder if you're listening, watching,
Your memory will never fade, you'll live in me, you'll live through me)
You'll live, through, me!
Sometimes, you'll think of me and say,
I miss you, the stories you'd tell me,
You'll wish we had more time, you got to say, goodbye,
Don't forget, don't forget, what I told you,
You gotta live, gotta live like I, showed you,
I'm proud of who you are, it's not too late, it's not too late, it's not too late
Ambitionary
How much further must I go before, I can escape my past, ohhh!
I wish I could have lived, without regrets,
But i've made, my mistakes, so many times,
Where do you go when the darkness finds you,
All I want is to see better days,
And have my past, washed away, all I want is better, days!
But where do I go (But where do I go)
I need a place, to call my own, where can we find hope,
(Where can we find hope) I need you, to show me the road,
Life shouldn't be this hard, not a reminder, of how much you've failed,
Remind yourself (Remind yourself!) you've come this far, you've come so far,
Remind yourself (Remind yourself!) you've come this far, you've come so far!
But where do I go (But where do I go)
I need a place, to call my own, where can we find hope,
(Where can we find hope) I need you, to show me the road,
But where do I go (But where do I go)
I need a place, to call my own, where can we find hope,
(Where can we find hope) I need you, to show me the road
Why weren't you there, for me,
Show me where, to go, show me anything, give me everything,
Show me where, to go, show me anything, give me everything,
I keep wanting more and more, but I can't see, can't start alone!
But where do I go (But where do I go)
But where do I go (But where do I go)
I need a place, to call my own, where can we find hope,
(Where can we find hope) I need you, to show me the road (Ohh!)
But where do I go (But where do I go)
I need a place, to call my own, where can we find hope,
(Where can we find hope) I need you, to show me the road,
Wanted you to, show me the road!
Live A Lie
I won't live a lie, I don't hide (I don't hide!)
I won't let you pull, me down, you won't pull me down,
I'll be who, I am, and I will, I will live, i'm alive!
If you think i'll, break, because you think i'm the same,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
You can't keep me this way, I will, escape,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
Fear will never, conquer me, it will guide, my way,
I welcome this day (Welcome me this way)
Fear will never, overcome me
Finally, you begin to see, I was built to be more,
Never will I, settle for your worth,
You can't trust what you know, this is just the beginning,
I'm, right, here, you can't deter me,
I'm, right, here, you won't escape me,
I'm, right, here, you'll never find, your way out,
This is me, this is me!
If you think i'll, break, because you think i'm the same,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
You can't keep me this way, I will, escape,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
Fear will never, conquer me, it will guide, my way,
I welcome this day (Welcome me this way)
Fear will never, overcome me
So many times (So many times!) i've laid by the wayside,
While I let them, tear at me (Tear at me!) it's my time, to believe,
If you ever, believed in something, it's time you believed in me,
If you think i'll break, because you think i'm the same, heh,
I won't live a lie!
If you think i'll, break, because you think i'm the same,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
You can't keep me this way, I will, escape,
(I won't live a lie, I won't live a lie!)
Fear will never, conquer me, it will guide, my way (It will guide, my way)
I welcome this day (Welcome me this way)
Fear will never, overcome me
Fear won't guide, my way, this is who, I am, I won't live a lie!
Belong
(I want to belong, I want to belong) I want to belong! ohhhh!
I've been searching, for far too long, when I feel i've reached my destination,
I can't, control these feelings, I just, wanna stop reaching!
Illuminate the path before me, so I can finally find my way,
I've been dying, to stop wandering, I just want to know my place,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough,
We'll find a better way, I just wanna belong,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough
Everyday I begin to hate this more, clinging on to a world so worn,
I know this feeling, is feeling too familiar, carry on,
Do you know when you've seen it all,
The world around you, doesn't make, sense, at all,
You get lost in your progress!
Illuminate the path before me, so I can finally find my way,
I've been dying, to stop wandering, I just want to know my place,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough,
We'll find a better way, I just wanna belong,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough,
(I don't know if, i'm, strong enough)
Here we go, here we go, let's take this life, and let's start living,
Here we go, here we go, let's take this life, and let's start living, here we go,
Let's take this life, let's start living, start living,
Let's take this life, let's start living, start living!
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough,
We'll find a better way, I just wanna belong,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough,
We'll find a better way, I just wanna belong,
I've searched, for far too long, I can't, control these feelings,
I found, my destination, I need, to stop reaching,
Don't we all, just wanna belong, I don't know if, i'm, strong enough
Room 126
There's no sign, we'll survive, there's no sign, we'll survive,
Let me out, they've trapped me here and i'll waste away,
While you figure this out, this room won't hold for long,
The world that we knew, has come and gone,
If we can't win, this will be the end,
The world that we knew, has come and gone,
If we can't win, this will be the end!
I never knew, I never knew,
That this could happen to me, I never wanted this,
That something I read about, was more than a story,
I can feel this taking ahold, of me (Will we survive!)
If we stop this now, there's a chance to break away
This, is our chance to break away, break away,
This, is our chance to break away, break away,
They keep circling around and round these walls,
Their faces are cold and lifeless, as they stare, back at me,
Their only thought is to devour, me, this is our chance, can we escape!
I never knew! I never knew, I never knew,
That this could happen to me, I never wanted this,
That something I read about, was more than a story,
I can feel this taking ahold, of me (Will we survive!)
If we stop this now, there's a chance to break away (Chance to break away..)
I've never felt, the fear of death, until it reached, out for me,
I've never felt the fear, of, death, fear, of, death,
I've never felt, the, fear, the fear of death!
I never thought that this could happen (This can't be real)
That something I read was more than a story,
I can feel this taking ahold, of me (Will we survive!)
If we stop this now, there's a chance to break away,
There's a chance to break away, there's a chance to break away,
There's a chance to, break,
To break away, I never felt the fear, of, death!
Astral Plane
And I have been here before, I don't understand how i've returned,
I have seen where this takes me, I didn't choose, this path,
Take, me, home, i've found the road,
Take, me, home, take, me home, i've found my home
Take me, to a better place, where i'm who I was born to be,
This wasn't what I envisioned, i'm not who, i'm supposed to be!
I've searched and searched, i've laid awake at night,
I've walked through the darkness, i've ran to the light, i've ran, to, the light!
And there was nothing there, but questions I had,
With answers I couldn't find, have I lost my mind,
Is this all there is left to life, is this all there is, is this it,
Is this all there is left to life, take, me, home
The Conscience
I'm not the man, I used to be, but you won't stop,
You won't stop, until you bury me,
I'm done, I couldn't take very much,
You changed your mind, through every pass,
It's my time, to go, I want to get out of here,
I want to take you with me, when we're done, don't forget me,
Let me think light of the world, but not your throne!
I can see, you're thinking of me,
The life that i've lived, but it's not me (It's not me)
I've made mistakes, i've paid the price,
Forget my past, before I change, my, mind
I can't say, what motivates me, but I know, i'll find a way,
It's time you've learned (It's time you've learned!)
What I deserve (What I deserve!)
It's time you've learned, look down the barrel,
When did you decide, to take, and to take, but never provide,
What, have you done, with your life,
But judge and pretend, you're better than me!
I can see, you're thinking of me,
The life that i've lived, but it's not me (It's not me)
I've made mistakes, i've paid the price,
Forget my past, before I change, my, mind,
I've made mistakes, paid the price,
Forget my past, before I change my mind
Suffocating by the problems, in your life,
Let me take off the noose,
You've wrapped around your throat, let me open your mind,
I'm here to end, your, life, open your mind, bleh!
I can see, what you're thinking of me,
The life that i've lived, but it's not me
I can see, you're thinking of me,
The life that i've lived, but it's not me (But it's not me!)
I've made mistakes, i've paid the price,
Forget my past, before I change, my, mind,
I've made mistakes, paid the price (I've paid the price!)
Forget my past, before I, before I change my mind,
(Change my mind, change my mind, change my mind, change my mind!)
Smoke Monster
The storm is coming, run, it will swallow, you, whole, and crush your soul,
Tell me, what you feel right now, you can't escape, it's the end of this town,
Tell me, what you feel right now, you can't escape, it's the end of this town,
It will swallow you whole, run for your life, it will swallow you whole!
You could never be replaced,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending!
I'm ready, to die, the wave is crashing, around, me,
Your soul leaves your body,
I know you couldn't make, it home tonight,
For fear we, come spilling this, all there is will never be again!
You could never be replaced,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending!
I'm not the one, who will lie in, this casket,
This prison was built, for, you,
This prison was built, for, you,
You'll be consumed when they crush you!
You could never be replaced,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending,
It was hard to see you go away (I can't save you!)
I couldn't save, couldn't save anyone,
Fear for your life, fear for the ending, you'll be washed, away, away..
