My Revival 08:13
I have often said, I could live forever if not for death. And I have often felt, my cards were pulled from the bottom when they were dealt. And in one dream I saw, a trip I took revealed before a fall. An argument from desire, I have had my feet held to the fire. Oh, leave me wanting. Oh, keep me haunting. Oh, leave me wanting. Oh, keep me haunting. All my life I sought, to live outside the law and not be caught. And in my ignorance, refusing any counsel to be taught. Sowing to the wind, a reaper of the whirlwind til the end. Reason is abandoned, this insanity I will defend. Oh, leave me wanting. Oh, keep me haunting. Oh, leave me wanting. Oh, keep me... I am the son who demands that which I am entitled. My head held high, I've been searching in vain for my rival. Riches to rags have been wasted in trade for survival. Fully expecting upon my return a reprisal. Silence your lips before raising dead issues, Clemency covering my former life, Blood shed in stead has now made a way, For My Revival. I will be met at the gallows by my accuser. Finger of scorn pointing me out to be the abuser. Beckon my witness to refute the charges against me. Face to the ground, I plead mercy, reveal my destiny. Silence your lips before raising dead issues, Clemency covering my former life, Blood shed in stead has now made a way, For My Revival. My Revival.

She first came to me in childhood dreams Knelt by my bedside and would softly sing She'd tell me strange secrets of things yet to pass Of sorrows to come sorrows that would last Wrapped tight in her velvet I truly could see And now just as then she comes and she sleeps She is perfect As the gates crash open all eyes turn to her Her presence electric with intent to burn The knowingly guilty in futility flee Her beauty destroys them to compose purity The horrible king who begs for her hand She cuts out his tongue and scorches his land She is perfect She can take all she wants She's given me more More than I hoped and prayed for As the palace is burning the world sings her praise Our eyes meet her lips mouth my name She is perfect I will lie on my death bed in wonder of her All others turned away I will not bear their words The door will creak open she'll float to my side With heavy sad eyes my tearful goodbyes I will taste her sweet kiss as her hands clasp my face She sweetly will sing "We will meet again" She is perfect

The time of hungry ghosts has come again They laid bare our souls and settled in It's come undone before it's begun We've had our time now let us move on Distant bodies feeling close within The dreamer or the dream wearing thin It's come undone before it's begun We've had our time now let us move on A black kite on a cold winter's day This is not a game I wish to play It's come undone before it's begun We've had our time now let us move on

Voices From Beyond And as i wander thru the dark, the darkness knows my name. I felt so far apart, the only comfort now is pain, comfort now is pain. And all these shadows in the night, the conflict and the fight. To walk between two worlds is driving me insane, driving me insane. And i think back onto that night, when the lost ones came to me. Spectres of pure light, here to torment me. Cast down from eternity. And in their wicked world outside, their judging eyes cut deep. Longing for the day of my eternal sleep. Voices from beyond, I can hear them calling. Whispers from the dawn of time. Voices from beyond, singing fear to lull me. Reveal all my sin, in rhyme. And as i live to bear the mark, the darkness calls my name. Enticement of the heart, to play this twisted game, with rules that always change. The spoils are laid before their feet, still the conquest incomplete. This merging of two worlds, leaves my soul estranged. Leaves my soul estranged. And now i turn and step outside, these walls of bitter pain. A move that drives the knife, and the blood comes down like rain. Voices from beyond, I can hear them calling. Whispers from the dawn of time. Voices from beyond, singing fear to lull me. Reveal all my sin, in rhyme.

Not ev'ry grave is a gate to death A stranger path may lead you here You're among friends You're among friends (don't worry) We're all here All waters flow on to the oceans To mingle salts with fresher tears You're among friends You're among friends (don't worry) We're all here Don't fear what's next, nothing will harm you Know in this world you're not alone You're among friends You're among friends (don't worry) We're all here
