"Seventh Wave"

"Seventh Wave"


O Earth, what changes hast thou seen!
There where the long street roars, hath been
The stillness of the central sea

The hills are shadows, and they flow
From form to form, and nothing stands
Like clouds they shape themselves and go

Running away, running away
Running away forever
It was her only chance of finding home
Running away, running away
Running away together
With only thoughts of finding home

I'll wait for the Ocean to rise up
And meet me, as it rose up before
(I'll know the time...)
I'll wait for the Ocean to rise up
And greet me, as it rose up before
(I'll know the year...)

Because you're never alone
Even when you're alone
You're never alone
Watch the seventh wave

Running away, running away
Running into the weather
With only thoughts of finding home
Running away, running away
Running away forever
I realize I'm on my own

On my way pass it on
On my way pass it on

I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And meet me as it rose up before
(I'll know the time...)
I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And greet me as it rose up before

We're never alone
Even when we're alone
We're never alone... watch the ocean

"Silent Militia"

"Silent Militia"


Silent Militia!
Soon we will fly
All these fears collide
Say you wanna feel it? you better step up
So you wanna be it? you are a piece of me
Feel it? you'll wanna step up
All you are is all that is me, and I will say it again
Silent Militia!
All for the thrill of the kill of
The world's only haunted sacred now
Do you believe we'll make it alright?
Whoa yeah!
If we believe, will we make it alright?
Whoa yeah!
Do you think we should?
Would you if you could?
So you wanna feel it? you better step up
So you wanna be it? you are a piece of me
Feel it? you'll wanna step up
All you are is all that is me, and I will say it again
All for the thrill of the kill of
The world's oldest haunted sacred cow
Do you believe we'll make it alright?
Whoa yeah!
If we believe, will we make it alright?
Whoa yeah!
Will you feel alright, will you feel alright will you feel alright when you're gone?
Will you feel alright, will you be alright will you feel alright when you're gone?
Fire away! Fire away! Fire away! Fire away!

"Sinner"
(originally by Judas Priest)

"Sinner"
(originally by Judas Priest)



Sinner rider, rides in with the storm
The devil rides beside him
The devil is his god, God help you mourn
Do you, do you hear it, do you hear the thunder
Deafen every living thing about
Can you, can you see it, can you
See the mountains darken yonder
Black sun rising, time is running out

Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

His steed of fury,
Eyes of fire and mane ablaze
Demonic vultures stalking
Drawn by the smell of war and pain
He roams the starways
Searching for the carcasses of war
But if it's hungry then its very presence
Disrupts the calm into the storm

Curse and damn you all you'll fall by the hand of the
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

God of the Devils, God of the Devils
Won't you help them pray
God of the Devils, God of the Devils
Is there no other way

Can't you hear their souls calling out in their plight
Can't you see their blood is boiling setting them alight

Thirty years now sleeping, so sound
War raises its head, and looks slowly around
The Sinner is near, sensing the fear
And the beast will start movin' around

Can't you see their souls calling out in their brain
Can't you hear their blood is boiling setting them alight

...Sinner, Sinner, Sinner, Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!
Sinner!

Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the
Curse and damn you all you fall by the hand of the
Sinner!

"Sit In The Mountain"

"Sit In The Mountain"


What have we done everybody?

I know why and where the water flows
But I, I don't remember anything at all
I sit in the mountain, sit in the mountain, alone
Sit in the mountain, I know, I know
'Cause I've been there before

Stay a while, and let the feelings go
Stay... stay... don't remember anything today
Sit in the mountain, sit in the mountain alone
Sit in the mountain, I know, I know
'Cause I've been there before

And they say you're out of your mind
And everything is just fine
You say you don't want to use me
So lose me, lose me

I sit in the mountain, sit in the mountain, alone
Sit in the mountain, I know, I know
'Cause we've been there before

Stay... stay... stay...

"Sky Blue"

"Sky Blue"


I thought you might have wanted my heart
You taste it, I fall and writhe
In my life I've gone over, you were right
In my life this will never go away

Do what you want to, all will haunt you
All is water, all I wanted
You have got to, not want to...got to
All is water, all is life!

Down on my own
The paralyzing friction was love again
Set on my own
The wheels are now ready to roll

And I know you're sleeping tonight
And I hope you're dreaming of light
I thought you might have wanted my high
You taste it, I fall and writhe

In my life I've gone over, you were right
In my life this will never go away

Down on my own
I'm paralyzed, afflicted by love and death
Set on my own
The muse is not ready to roll

And I know you're sleeping tonight
And I hope you're dreaming of light

Have you found a way?
'Cause you and I remain
And, oh, my god, it's too late to pray

Say the word!

Down on my own
I'm paralyzed, afflicted by love and death
Set on my own
The muse is now ready to roll

And I know you're sleeping tonight (I have a fight and I have a right of way)
And I hope you're dreaming of light (I have a fight and I have a right of way)
And I know you're sleeping tonight (I have a fight and I have a right of way)
And I hope you're dreaming of me

If I knew your words, in through your mind, silently

"Slow Me Down"

"Slow Me Down"


It's so easy when you call
I was waiting by the phone
Knowing that you're all alone
And I ask you when you call
"But will you wait for me?"
Will you wait for me?

'Cause in a while I'll never look behind
Even when I'll nearly lose my mind
So when the devil wins that toss
Will we be making it across?
Hang on...
Want it, need it
My want is found and feeding
Hanging around with a girl
'Cause I want it, need it
So bad I can hardly breathe but it slows me down
And through all we bear the scars
On the soul, through the stars
Alone...
Forever we roam
And you ask me when you call
"But will you wait for me?"
I will wait for you!

'Cause in a while I'll never look behind
Even when I'll nearly lose my mind
So when the devil wins that toss
Will they be making it a cross?
Hang on...
Want it, need it
My want is found and feeding
Hanging around with a girl
'Cause I want it, need it
So bad I can hardly breathe but it slows me down
Feel it in my mind and soul
Feel it in my constant lies
Feel it now, feel it go away... oh yeah!
I wanna go, where nobody's gone
While hanging around with that girl
'Cause nobody knows where the river flows now
You've slowed me, slowed me, slowed me down
Down!

"Solar Winds"


[Narrator:]
Now, being hailed as the ultimate 4th dimensional guitar hero, Ziltoid feels confident in his complete victory
But, Captain Spectacular has seen through Ziltoid's façade and now sets out to expose Ziltoid for what he really is...a nerd
A nerd...

We now join Captain Spectacular as he introspectively gazes out of his starship window, on his way to find the fifth dimensional nebulo 9

Did you know that time
Is not a straight line?
Everything that you learn
Now it's gone
Gone away
You take your time
If you choose
You'll burn...
Everything that you were
Now it's gone
Gone away
Yeah it's gone
Gone away

Yeah it's gone
Gone away
Gone!
And the world is gone!
And we find theirs no-one that's
Waiting for the light to come
And we are on our own
And we find theirs no-one that's
Waiting for the light to call
Now you're on your own
And You we find theirs no-one that's
Waiting for the light to call

[Captain Spectacular:]
I must rise! I must find a way! For this...Ziltoid will surely pay!
My fellow humans! I, Captain Spectacular, hereby give my good word!

Yeah it's gone, gone away
Yeah it's gone, gone away
Yeah it's gone, gone

Solar wind blows
Through my eye and control mind
Solar wind blows
Through my eye and control my mind
Say it again!
Say it again!
Words are used for weapons!
Say it again, and again and again and again and again and again!
Don't let her down
You've led her into my world!
Hey, you'll never learn
You've led her into my mind
Through your soul
Your solar winds blowing cold
You've never learned
You've led her into my world
Solar workings of your door
The solar wind
The solar winds blowing cold

[Ziltoidian:] Commander Ziltoid, Permission to speak!
[Ziltoid:] Granted...
[Ziltoidian:] It appears as if Captain Spectacular and the remaining humans have set a course to the benevolent hive mine 9!
[Ziltoid:] Indeed...

Comfort me; you know I'm right
Come to me into the night
Knowing we are right behind
The solar wind the solar winds blowing cold!
(Solar winds, solar winds blowing cold)

[Ziltoidian:] Commander Ziltoid the humans are no longer on our radar!
[Ziltoid:] What! Curses they must have jumped into hyperdrive. Phooey! Indeed, phooey! Until we meet again commander...

"Soul Driven"

"Soul Driven"


Now that the love is gone
What's still holding on?
If all that was said was true
What's still holding you?
If ever, you need someone there
Who's been there for ever
And ever, will waken the dawn
Awaken the dawn for you

Please don't hesitate to call
Please don't hesitate at all
Please don't hesitate to call
Please don't hesitate at all

(So many words, which ones do you say?)

Sing maute dingas!
(Everyone who knows and everyone who noticed
Anyone who noticed anyone who knows it)

Soul driven!
Devil
Nature
Cadillac
Jesus
Allah
Krishna
Buddha
God

The birth has occurred and the time has begun, it's the end of this age and the
Preparations must begin for a new time that takes so much work and will hurt in the
Beginning, change always does, and know strength is not something you buy or sell
Through aggression and fear. Only love and acceptance of faith will convince you
That you're not alone and exist among friends so have patience

Don't give in
Don't give in
Have patience

It's time
(Is this what you want? Are you happy with what we've
Become? Is this the way you want to live?)

You have a decision to make
Bodywash! Home everybody e-a
Everybody knows, it's very good now... home... home...

"Stagnant"

"Stagnant"


Summer's here, the sunlight greets the day
The winter's gone, there's no more rain today
And if I could, I'm sure that I would take your pain away
So ain't it funny how, after trying to find my way home
I'm in the middle now and I won't get lost again

'Cause in the winter time, when everything is grey
And in the summer time, into the month of May
I get a feeling that it's all so temporary
And that's the feeling that can take my blues away, hey-uh

Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head, wuh-uh-uh-uh
Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head now, my head now...

It's beautiful, the way it's meant to be
Beautiful, but it "don't do shit" for me, yeah!
So peel away a little skin and choke upon the bone
So ain't it funny how, after trying to find my way home
I'm in the middle now, and I won't get lost again

Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head, wuh-uh-uh-uh
Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head now, my head now

But you don't know, how or when it's gonna go

Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head, wuh-uh-uh-uh
Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head now, my head now

Tired of the way that I'm feeling every day
And I feel it in my head now, my head now

[Spoken in reverse:]
(Well ladies and gentlemen, it looks like we're at the end of another one
Keep slowly down the magnifying hills and keep your mind on the matter
Fly for now!)

But you don't know...

Right I'm good
OK
And my foot is so asleep
Is it?
Yep
