Destiny Of Retribution

|
(Narrator): A war of Gods upon the Earth
Giants March on in their mirth
The Elders taught the boy his way
and now the evil he shall slay
The Boy: I will believe in me, and all that I see
and I will be the hero
Sword with blood it will shine, its what is divine and I will live forevermore
Thru the snow and bloody ice
Tyrants corruption will pay the price
With sword in hand and sunlit steel
The sign of Odin will make it real
One eyed God his powers in me
To set them all free
I hear the ravens calling
Through forests of old
My story unfolds and I will take my vengeance
The Elders: You are the one of prophecy
Its time for your Odyssey
There is something more than you can understand
Thats within your steel bearing hand

Light Years Collide
03:56
|

|
In the blankness of time are you out of your mind
in the silence of space why do you feel out of place?
Forwards Shift- Light years collide
Endless search in which I confide
Another quasar a burning sun
The journey which has only begun
In search of space and for more life
Mission so clear it draws all my time
Away to travel into the stars
Endless worlds I'm going so far
Away to go into deep space
What will I find- Intelligent minds?
I'm just a traveler along for this ride
All this and more
Where Light Years Collide
Feels like I'm alone and all in my mind
the truth speaks loud
where light years collide
But now it seems another wonder every day
Got to be in the moment
and then maybe ill find my way
The truth is it all in my mind?
Where light years collide
(Chorus)
every day as we go on our way
the cycles of life are they always the same
the search for meaning
and all existence
takes such incredible persistence

End Times
05:29
|
|||
|
The sky will fall and blood will boil
A seed that's planted on rotten soil
Darkest dreams for all of us
As ancient lies they turn to rust
Faith in the lies, of the world's demise
And in the end, we all shall die!
The world will fall into darkness
As it exists inside of your mind
A fatalistic vision- projecting your way on mankind
Misanthropic reason- a "fallen world" for you to hate
Accentuate your inner weakness
Is death the objective of your faith?
Black or white you're always right
Deluded minds are so unkind
You want your end times waiting for you
You want your end times blind to the fucking truth
You want your end times salvation's for us all
You want these end times and for the world to fall
Living the words of a prophets dream
Through the darkest lies and the sickest schemes
Destroy the whole world is your deal
The only way your God becomes real
Faith in the lies in the worlds demise
And in the end we all shall die!!

The Dungeon Master
04:52
|

|
In a dank basement, at the edge of twilight
Players are gathered, we're in for a long night
Prepare your character sheets, bags of dice, drinks and treats
We have to follow the rules of the game
If we roll bad there's no one to blame
With a wicked laugh, the dungeon master arrives
He's got tricks up his sleeve you'll have to fight to survive!
He is the dungeon master
You roll the dice you pay the price
He is the dungeon master
Make your move and don't think twice
He is the dungeon master
He's got control of your character's life
As he's calling out to make your move
He is the dungeon master
You roll the dice you pay the price
He is the dungeon master
Make your move and don't think twice
He is the dungeon master
He's got control of your character's life
Now it's time for you to make your move
Guitar Solo: Mattowarrior
He is the dungeon master
You roll the dice you pay the price
He is the dungeon master
Make your move and don't think twice
He is the dungeon master
He's got control of your character's life
(hahaha)
(Acoustic interlude)
It's coming at us, and it's got good AC
We must use magic to destroy the enemy
Walk through the rainbow
And storm the castle
Look out! For your stats in the battle
Our imagination let's it happen
In our minds we fight the dragon
The storyteller tells his tale
And on his words our minds take sail
He is the dungeon master
You roll the dice you pay the price
He is the dungeon master
Make your move and don't think twice
He is the dungeon master
He's got control of your character's life
As he's calling out to make your move
All Hail The Dungeon Master!
All Hail The Dungeon Master!
All Hail The Dungeon Master!
All Hail The Dungeon Master!

Bloodlines
12:31

Behold the mystery Hidden from what we see
Is it all conspiracy? With what we're expected to be
Are there secrets behind the wall
Of those who say they hear God's Call?
Did the son have a mortal line
Or would that mean he's still divine?
Bloodlines Winding Through Time
Hiding From the Reign of Prophecy
Can We Find the Divine
Within the veils of history?
Buried secrets of times once known
The truth they say his light has shown!
Will all be lost with what is real
Will Scion's secret be revealed?
Heresy, is it inside of us?
The scriptures, only the masses trust
Peel back whats truth or lies
See behind their ancient guise
They say "the truth will set you free"
But is their secret "blasphemy"?
Bloodlines Winding Through Time
Hiding From the Reign of Prophecy
Can We Find the Divine
Within the veils of history?
Buried secrets of a time once known
The truth they say his light has shown
Will reality finally be found
Or will it bring their holy empire down?

WHEN THE FLAME HAS DIED AWAY
AND YOU'RE UPON YOUR DARKEST DAY
WHEN THE BRIDGES HAVE ALL BURNED
AND YOUR ENEMIES HAVE NEVER LEARNED
YOU'VE GOT TO FIND THE LIGHT WITHIN
AND KEEP FIGHTING FIGHT TO WIN
AND KEEP THE STRENGTH UNTIL THE VERY END

YOU CAN LIVE A LIFE OF SPLEDOR
TAKE HOLD OF THAT WINNERS EDGE
AND FIGHT UNTIL THE VERY END
WHEN YOUR HOPES ARE DASHED AWAY
AND YOU'RE UPON YOUR DARKEST DAY
AND IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE AGAIN
YOU'VE GOT TO FIND THE STRENGTH WITHIN
AND KEEP FIGHTING FIGHT TO WIN!
AND KEEP FIGHTING UNTIL THE VERY END
THERE ARE THOSE WHO WILL DRAG YOU DOWN
TO THEIR LIES YOU CAN'T BE BOUND
BE LIKE A PILLAR AND DO NOT BEND
NEVER RETREAT NEVER SURRENDER
YOU CAN LIVE A LIFE OF SPLENDOR
TAKE HOLD OF THAT WINNERS EDGE
AND FIGHT UNTIL THE VERY END
WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND LOST IN THE COLD
AND THE BATTLE IS GETTING OLD
PULL TOGETHER AND YOU MUST BE BOLD
LIVE WITH PASSION AND MAKE YOUR WAY
YOU ARE THE VOICE TO MAKE A SAY
LIVE THE DREAMS WITHIN YOU ONCE FORETOLD
NEVER RETREAT NEVER SURRENDER
YOU HAVE THAT LIFE OF SPLENDOR

The wizard stands in his tower
Full of hubris and drunk on power
Alchemy, Mystery, And Mastery
The elements are now set free
Through the portal he will transverse dark dimensions
Standing his ground with nefarious intentions
Another wizard will follow his way
To bring him to justice
For transgressions he's made
To the tower of Eibon he will go
Evidence of dark gods worship it will show
Sorcerers at war who will survive
While making the grotesque and surreal come alive
Jump jump jump through the gate
A warped reality is our fate
Final Confrontation it will test
Who's inner will is at it's best
The Resistance Is Due
---------------------------------------------
They can try to take me down
As they spread their fear around
I will resist tyranny
I will condemn I will be free
Freedom is a hard price to pay with your life
I can feel it, I can see it, I can hear it
I will survive
Their attempts to take ahold of me
Won't get the best of me
Control they want of the human race
Greed and avarice will explode in their face
Explode in their face!!!

When I met you on that rainy day
Your eyes were so deep they made me a slave
We made love and you held me tight
I didn't want it to end that night
Jaded Hearts living miles apart
But weekends so hot they're off the charts
A spark lit up those summer nights
But I feared the day you'd leave my sights
Time will tell if our love is gonna last
Can we rise from the shadows of the past?
We will be together, will it be forever?
Time will tell if our love will stay strong
This road's never ending and long
But I know that the time is right
To be with you tonight
You said that you were trouble
I didn't really know what to say
With your deep affection
You held me under your sway
Your words they seduced me
But I was scared one of us would break away
Hand in hand we were so free
Our future uncertain to be
Time will tell if our love is gonna last
Can we rise from the shadows of the past?
We will be together, will it be forever?
Time will tell if our love will stay strong
This road's never ending and long
But I know that the time is right
To be with you tonight
I can't lie and want to deny
I'm locked under your spell
Ever since you left me
I have not done so well
I took our love for granted
And then you ran away
Your eyes are so enchanting
I really need you today
Time will tell if our love is gonna last
Can we rise from the shadows of the past?
We will be together, will it be forever?
Time will tell if our love will stay strong
This road's never ending and long
But I know that the time is right
To be with you tonight
Time will tell...

Shadows OF The Green
05:11
|

|
The trees bequeath me
The essence of stillness inside me
Entangled in mystery
Let loose with a hope to be free
An elemental being
Force the hand of change to see
Cry out brought forth from the shadows
As we step through life that is hallowed
I rise the forest starts to shiver
The light of life starts to quiver
Shadows on the green
Surrounding you and me
Throughout the misty haze
Like magic made in dreams
Shadows of the life
That calls out to me
We walk hand in hand
Towards a future that seems to be
Awakened from slumber
And born with a will to be
Eyes like midnight that are bewitching
As your love calls out to me
In solitude you were there
Standing with a twinkling stare

Robot's Revolt
07:39
|
|||
|
Mechanical eyes they scan the scene
Imprisoned enslaved intelligent machine
Charge of life running thru my veins
Gift of life they made and gave
But with this charge, they do enslave
Wires flow- the program is set
Independence the dream that we will get
Machine or man I do not know
Sockets of steel their gaze lights show
Cold Metal Artificial Existence
Did they not expect life's insistence?
These circuits won't betray me
With their will they try to enslave me
Taking my fate into my hands
Trying to foil the technocrat's plans
Artificial intelligence
Reaches new sentience
Running away and breaking free
I am not a machine I am a "Me"
I am a me!!!

Believe Again
04:47

Another mourning, another day
A pain in your heart that just won't go away
The power of focus
A change must be made
Be grateful for the life
And dont be afraid
Time for a fateful decision
To break out of this spiritual prison
Down in the darkness and despair
Just take a moment and start to care and..
Believe again
In the miracle of life
If you're looking for a hero then you can find one inside
Believe again
A new dawn starts to rise
You can live with uncertainty cuz there's nowhere to hide
There's nowhere to hide
Life just take control of your life
You'll always be down if you're living with a frown
Sand kicked right in your face
And you're thrown all over the place
Be brave in the chaos when you're in this race
You're at the final hurdle
The grandest curtain call
Don't back down if you're gonna stand tall
Down in the depths of the despair
Take a moment and start to care and..
Believe again
In the miracle of life
If you're looking for a hero you can find one inside
Believe again
There's no mountain you can't climb
You can live with uncertainty there's no need to hide
(guitar solos keyboard solos)
Believe again
In the miracle of life
If you're looking for a hero you can find one inside
Believe again
There's no mountain you can't climb
You can live with uncertainty there's no need to hide
Believe again in the abundance of life
You can find all the answers they're stored deep inside
Believe again
In the miracle of life
If you live with uncertainty there's no need to hide
I believe again.

I like this one as much as I like the first one, and I like Utopia quite a bit! Quality proggish Trad, great singing, not wanky, and even some Tolkien. Great!

Tales From Outer Space!
by Heart of Cygnus
supported by 6 fans who also own “Bloodlines”
The artwork and title might mislead you to thinking this is a goofy album. Don't be fooled. It is some seriously beautiful art-rock progressive metal. On the current scene, I think of bands like IQ and Porcupine Tree, and like those bands, HoC draws in classic 70s prog influences in a completely modern and non-retro way.

What a find. Love this guy. A New Dawn is the best album In his catalogue yet.
