[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

Sonic fires bring mass devastation

Manic search in sad desperation

Jeopardize the right to hide from a sad existence

Nothing left, still searching for something

Deep beneath the cries

Wait for the deafening silence

Fly forever more!


[Verse 2]

Crushed by the thought that you're all alone

Cravation in her eyes

I will be waiting tomorrow

Striving to understand

Wasting a life not meant to be

Twisted and so broken once again

And the promises we've cast away

Will shine a guiding light

Victim of your grief and denial


[Chorus]

Take my hand this one last time

Face the world before us; the warrior inside

In a lifetime of disaster it's a battle to the end

Final stand, my life must carry on

And forever, this time


[Verse 3]

Battered, beaten, forced to submission

Stricken by your fatal decision

Suddenly it's time to say your last goodbyes

Misery remains voluntary

All illusion gone

Break through the blistering madness

Free forever more


[Verse 4]

Blinding my eyes with your filtering

Mutation cast aside

I'll still be waiting tomorrow

Slave to a toxic man

Forced to a life of yesterday

Theatre of salvation, crushed and burned

Down this lonely road, recede the day

Our dreams are brushed aside

Can't regain this emptiness in time


[Chorus]

Take my hand this one last time!

Face the world before us; the warrior inside

In a lifetime of disaster it's a battle to the end

Final stand, my life must carry on

And forever, this time


[Guitar Solos]


[Bridge]

See through the skies

Far beyond the world tonight

Hear the sounds of freedom ring

In a silent dream

And a million miles away

See through the stars

Far beyond the world tonight

Hear the sounds of freedom ring

In a silent dream

And a million miles away

Reach for the stars

And live our lives forever free

In our hearts for a thousand years

And a thousand lifetimes before


[Outro]

And the dawn of a new day will rise

A light for us all
