War of Kings

"War of Kings"

A promise on the edge of madness An oath amongst the world of men Gonna drive them into exile Or never let them breathe again On that night Under the raging northern sky The seeds of legend lie Slaughtered almost to a man The war of kings began In a land thrown into darkness An army would arise The heathens died laughing At the king's men heads bourne high On that night Under the raging northern sky The seeds of legend lie Slaughtered almost to a man The war of kings began The war of kings began

"Hole in My Pocket"

Hear the cry of the battle born God is working his ways tonight Way back we owned this road, yeah But it's a future I can live without One spark lit up this place Two sparks, baby, amazing grace Breakneck speed, can't read the signs You got me running clean out of time Let's all pretend We don't pretend It's not the end It doesn't get better than this Hole in my pocket Stone in my shoe Time keeps on winning What can you do I just can't stop it I'm blowin' a fuse Time keeps on winning What can you do Hey baby, how did we get here Always thought we were already there Spend my money to buy more time Now forever's kicking me around Hey listen, I'm not taking calls Ain't going back to nothing at all Against all odds and evidence I knew my sun was gonna rise again Let's all pretend We don't pretend It's not the end It never gets better than this Hole in my pocket Stone in my shoe Time keeps on winning What can you do I just can't stop it I'm blowin' a fuse Time keeps on winning What can you do

"The Second Day"

On the first day the writers claimed There's nothing here that can't be explained On the second day the rumors fly People talk about an unprecedented lie On the third day, well, where do I start The sorrow, the breaking of the human heart I just wanna scream out her name There's a place we just cannot reach There's a light we just cannot see There's a hope that won't give out It should be all we talk about There's a soul reaching out in fear No reply in the time we're here We won't forget those faces We fall to pieces On the fourth day the pressure will blow The world is someplace that we used to know On the fifth day no direction home Empty sky, hollow Earth, all is gone I just wanna scream out her name There's a place we just cannot reach There's a light we just cannot see There's a hope that won't give out It should be all we talk about There's a soul reaching out in fear No reply in the time we're here We won't forget those faces We fall to pieces On the second day the rumors fly People talk about an unprecedented lie There's a place we just cannot reach There's a light we just cannot see There's a hope that won't give out It should be all we talk about There's a soul reaching out in fear No reply in the time we're here We won't forget those faces We fall to pieces

"Praise You"

There's some shadows in a courtyard Dearly pictured in my mind Two young lovers moving slowly A desire they can't hide I wanna thank you I wanna thank you Let it be said I wanna praise you all over I wanna praise you all right From the first time I saw you I just gotta be in your mind There's a city, our city Brought us together in our time I was drifting, I look around me now And I know I did, I did something right I wanna praise you all over I wanna praise you all right From the first time I saw you I just gotta be in your mind I wanna praise you all over I wanna praise you just right From the first time I had you I just gotta be on your mind I wanna praise you, wanna praise you, wanna praise you All over, all over, all over From the first time I had you I just gotta be in your mind I just gotta be

"Nothin' to Ya"

Of all the streets, of all the days You just had to invade my space Of all the moves, of all my crazy moves Just had, it just had to be made on you Oh, c'est la vie If you swear that I mean nothin' to ya Hand on heart, no, I can't do it for ya But if you're lying I'll be coming for ya If you swear that I mean nothin' to ya Of all the lows, of all the highs I just had to, had to make 'em mine Of all the words, of all our fights It became the best years of my, the best years of my life Oh, c'est la vie If you swear that I mean nothin' to ya Hand on heart, no, I can't do it for ya But if you're lying I'll be coming for ya If you swear I mean nothin' to ya If you swear I mean nothin' to ya There's nothing I can do for ya If you're lying I'll be coming for ya If you swear that I mean nothin' to ya Hand on heart, no, I can't do it for ya But if you're lying I'll be coming for ya Can you swear I mean nothin' to ya I mean nothin' to ya

"California 405"

I know it's late but I've had enough Let's go for a drive, baby, shake it up The headlines cut so deep these days You give me that spark to light up the place It's like we're going nowhere With just enough light to see Now we're rollin' down California 405 The night is open wide Oh, how this world has changed But tonight we're free again Baby to whatever end Well, no one is foolin' anyone No exit signs on the road we're on Headin' out to nowhere With just enough light to see Now we're rollin' down California 405 The night is open wide Oh, how this world has changed But tonight we're free again Baby to whatever end

"Days of Rock 'N' Roll"

Somebody told me it's all the same now Somebody told me we've had our turn I gotta believe that time's still ours I gotta believe it's still ours to burn The light seems to be fading I'm crawling back into that hole Where the soul seems to awaken Them days of rock 'n' roll Days of rock 'n' roll Somebody told us to shake and shiver He left the building not long ago Somebody sold us down the river Full of scratches and bullet holes It comes raging out of nowhere Like some wreckage to behold We still drink out of the fountain Of them days of rock 'n' roll Days of rock 'n' roll Days of rock 'n' roll It comes raging out of nowhere Like some wreckage to behold We still drink out of the fountain Of them days, them days of rock 'n' roll Days of rock 'n' roll Days of rock 'n' roll

"Children of the Mind"

In a house of stories Build a temple in your name Live my whole existence Crawling back again Children of the mind No sun, no moon, no sign Stealing light, stealing time Children of the mind Children of the mind Carve your name in stone I'm howlin' at your feet I'll cave with my resistance Will be the life and death of me Children of the mind No sun, no moon, no sign Stealing light, stealing time Children of the mind Children of the mind, yeah Children of the mind

"Rainbow Bridge"

Like all the rivers we have flown together to the sea Like all the stars that have aligned to something heavenly Like all the forces of the dark we're creating below Nothing can touch the living hope the human spirit owns So we run across the rainbow bridge We're running for our lives and mistakes we made Until there's nothing to forgive We rage across, we rage across the rainbow bridge Just like we crossed so many lands just to be here now Well, we're still longing for a place we know nothing 'bout Hey So we run across the rainbow bridge We're running for our lives and mistakes we made Until there's nothing to forgive We run across, we rage across the rainbow bridge We rage across the rainbow bridge We're running for our lives and mistakes we made Until there's nothing to forgive We rage across, we rage across the rainbow bridge

"Angels (With Broken Hearts)"

We build our wings In so many ways We build our hope It's the last thing to fade And we build our love Please don't take it away Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts They watch us tear this world apart Oh no Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts For you, yeah We build our lives Hopefully the one that we choose We keep our faith When there's nothing left to lose And we give our hearts Please don't tear them apart Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts They watch us tear this world apart Oh no Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts For you Here's what they're saying Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts They watch us tear this world apart Out of the night Come these angels with their broken hearts They watch us tear this world apart Apart

"Light It Up"

I was circling 'round like a lost dog at night Sniffin' around for some sign of life Then Sammy sang and it felt so right It started up a fire that's never been put out 'Cause every star is a fading sun Let's light it up Every kid got to hit the ground and run Let's light it up Oh, light it up Now things began to change in my neighborhood The girls were looking pretty and the booze began to taste so good Every generation's gotta go ''round the bend Take a little trip and hopefully get back again 'Cause every star is a fading sun So come on,  light it up Every kid got to hit the ground and run Let's light it up 'Cause we want it, yeah, we want it We can have it, so let's have it Yeah, we want it, yeah, we want it We can have it, let's have it Let's have it Every star is a fading sun Hey, let's light it up Every kid got to hit the road and run Come on, let's light it up Let's light it up
