with every step you take my heart begins to ache My only weakness is longing for you With every chance that slips between my fingertips but you've got defenses that I will break through Don't start behaving Like I don't know how to feed your craving you've got a battle, and that battle is me Fighting for Love Fighting for love and when the weight of the world's got you down You're fighting for love Fighting for Love Fighting for love and when the fear is always around You're fighting for love I feel your racing heart although we're miles apart I will keep chasing you till the end I almost see your face and feel your sweet embrace is this so hard for you to comprehend? Don't start behaving Like I don't know how to feed your craving you've got a battle, and that battle is me I will follow the beat of your heart even though we are miles apart On your love is what I depend and your honor is what I defend

Another chapter ends as the streetlights meet the dusk I never hung my hat for too long; I never found someone to trust Just another empty road to a town I couldn’t name Just a step ahead of loneliness, just a mile ahead of pain Then I met you… And I knew just what you wanted me to do Let’s steal away tonight on a chase for something new One more time Cross the line Make you mine and I will be there by your side Every time Cross that line Make you mine and on forever we will ride, by my side I saw your amber eyes calling out for something more And your long and listless legs that yearned to bolt right out that door Ready to burn away the roots that hold you down To give a fond farewell to no one; to make a break and ditch this town When I met you… Well I knew just what you wanted me to do We ride the line tonight on a chase for something new

There’s a crowd at the edge of the void, pushing together And the guards to make sure that no man interferes And I, alone, overlooking the nether And I, alone, my anger choking back tears Watch it go, fall into the shadow My soul/toil a sacrifice to the blackened maw below And all I know, swallowed into the shadow Just an offering to the void; Just another stone to throw Calloused hands guide chisel on stone for what feels like a lifetime And the inlays carefully cloaked with silver and gold And the mob that gathers outside, voracious with gall All the while, they’re building the pile, awaiting the fall
4.
Who is this, that I see before my eyes? In the mist where the darkness never dies A soul without a shell to call my home, will I wander evermore? Forever lost in the fog of war The chill of death will overtake me Inside the haze my sanity begins to slip Although the battle’s just a memory The memory will not release me from its grip I was there when it all came crashing down A fatal charge when our blood baptised the ground And where are all the souls who died that day, did they all just fade away? Am I the only one who’s cursed to stay? Where is the heaven that was promised To all the men who were prepared to die that day? Although my time is clearly over The god of battle has commanded me to stay Chained to this haze in memory’s maze still I wander There is no chance for peace, wait for release

There are fables, I’m told, of a Curse’d tomb of memory - some make-believe Yet the air’s turning cold, and I swear I hear them Calling me… Heavy haze steals my breath, the passage out I cannot see Screaming, searching, My heart is racing, Trapped in a never-ending memory Hear the echoes of war Resounding forevermore Hold on, don’t you fold to the desolate cold Escaping this maze Breaking free from the haze “Remain!” Demands the phantom refrain Illumination fading My sanity degrading The phantom hand reaching for my chest Miasma chokes my breathing Deaf from eternal screaming The grief of souls never laid to rest Screaming, searching Consciousness breaking Trapped in a horror that no man should see Hear the echoes of war Resounding forevermore Enslaved and controlled by the desolate cold No escaping this maze Disappear in the haze Remain I am forever enchained

Where are my manners? We haven’t been introduced! I seem to have compelled the dungeon guard to cut us loose And what a splendid party! You’re having so much fun! It seems we made it right on time; the ball has just begun No need to make a racket, and please stay in your seats I promise to be swift; you see my men are quite discreet Just a tiny favor, I don’t mean to be bold But empty out your pockets ‘cause we’re taking all your gold! Hush dear, for there is no reason to fear If you’ll lend me your jewels and follow my rules Soon we will all disappear Last night we slept in chains Tonight we drink champagne! Sing to our fame! Remember our name! We are the Brothers of Cain! Now I know just what you’re thinking, let’s cut right to the chase For if you take that sword out I will shoot you in the face! There’s no need to be violent, no, that simply will not do! Let’s all just keep our heads or else I’ll steal your women too! We’re having such a blast! The time has quickly passed I’d love to stay and party but I fear we’re fading fast That lightly guarded galleon in the harbor should suffice So thank you all, ‘twas quite a ball, and now we say goodnight! Hush dear, you’ll notice I’m quite cavalier Ask your man to sit still until I’ve had my fill Of most of his flagon of beer Last night we slept in chains Tonight we toast our fame! Remember our name, I’ll say it again, We are the Brothers of Cain! Tonight you’re bound and gagged, Now raise the blackened flag! Sing to our fame! Remember our name! We are the brothers of cain!

In the dragon's den he found the ring of magic fire and everything he touched was consumed with his desire flammable or not the curse incinerates at will with a hunger unrestrained the firestorm an evil conflagration the burning steel will break the seal Woah, with the chains on fire and the fires of metal will burn Woah, with the chains on fire / we're the chains on fire we're fighting our way with the chains on fire As his power grew the many kings tried to obtain the secret of his blaze to expand their own domain with resounding force the curse imprisoned now by chains the warriors believed the firestorm the embers of cremation the burning chains all that remains Woah, with the chains on fire and the fires of metal will burn Woah, with the chains on fire / we're the chains on fire we're fighting our way with the chains on fire

It's alright There comes a time Got no patience to search For peace of mind Layin' low Want to take it slow No more hiding or Disguising truths I've sold Everyday it's something Hits me all so cold Find me sittin' by myself No excuses, then I know It's okay Had a bad day Hands are bruised from Breaking rocks all day Drained and blue I bleed for you You think it's funny, well You're drowning in it too Everyday it's something Hits me all so cold Find me sittin' by myself No excuses, then I know Yeah, it's fine We'll walk down the line Leave our rain, a cold Trade for warm sunshine You my friend I will defend And if we change, well I Love you anyway Everyday it's something Hits me all so cold Find me sittin' by myself No excuses, then I know

De la penumbra y tinieblas nació Santuario sólo en nombre es Sirvientes del mal liberó y convocó No habrá quien apague su furor. De su prisión de piedra escapó, Controló al rey, su reino arruinó Fuerzas del mal En la profundidad Del sombrío abismo entran a nuestro hogar Un mal renacido ahora tiene el control Dios de destrucción, sus almas robó Descenso a las sombras; aldeanos raptó Sus almas manchó y consumió El Diablo, demonio, ángel de perdición Su justo castigo obtendrá. De su prisión de piedra escapó, Controló al rey, su reino arruinó Fuerzas del mal En la profundidad Del sombrío abismo entran a nuestro hogar Un mal renacido ahora tiene el control Dios de destrucción, sus almas robó Fuerzas del mal En la profundidad Del sombrío abismo entran a nuestro hogar Un mal renacido ahora tiene el control Dios de destrucción, sus almas robó

I follow the Moskva Down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change An August summer night Soldiers passing by Listening to the wind of change The world is closing in Did you ever think That we could be so close, like brothers The future's in the air I can feel it everywhere Blowing with the wind of change Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away) In the wind of change Walking down the street Distant memories Are buried in the past forever I follow the Moskva Down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams) With you and me Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night (the glory night) Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away) In the wind of change (the wind of change) The wind of change Blows straight into the face of time Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell For peace of mind Let your balalaika sing What my guitar wants to say Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams) With you and me (with you and me) Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away) In the wind of change (in the wind of change)

The Road 04:45
Under the glow of the city lights Contemplating the sacrifice I lost my days but I kept my nights My thoughts alone in my head Locked and loaded, ready for the prowl It's cougar season, the time is right This wolf is ready to howl No one ever said the road was easy No one else can tell me how to live my life I'd rather take my chances with the wasteland Than put up day to day with all this strife Friday or Monday it's all the same Forgot how long I been playing my game Everyone trying to pass the blame No one stepping up I will stand and fight For what I feel is right I've got an appetite For standing in the spotlight No one ever said the road was easy You've gotta pay the toll when you hit the wall Every night they try and push you higher But all they wanna do is watch you fall Fall, up against a wall Thought you'd give it your all But now you're forced to crawl No one ever said the road was easy No one else can tell me how to live my life I'd rather take my chances with the wasteland Than put up day to day with all this strife No one ever said the road was easy You've gotta pay the toll when you hit the wall Every night they try to push you higher But all they wanna do is watch you fall

about

Lords of the Trident Madison, Wisconsin

Lords of the Trident is the most METAL band on earth. Their metal's so pure that only diamonds can scratch it, and usually the diamonds are the ones that end up getting hurt in the end. Their amps are so loud, Manowar knocked on their door and asked them to "please turn down". ... more
