DRAGONFORCE LYRICS

1. Heroes Of Our Time

Lost in a dream, finally it seems,
Emptiness and everlasting madness,
See the sadness grow, watching as we know,
Long before our journey for the world,
Call for us, the power in all of us,
So far beyond the blackened sky tonight...
Glorious, forever more in us,
We are victorious, and so alive.

[Chorus]
We'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Free for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Starchaser...

Fly towards the storm, see the world reborn,
Feel the pain inside the voice of sorrow,
Cross the distant shores, find the open door,
Stand alone, in judgment for tomorrow.

Years of pain still haunt us all, we saw the last sunrise,
Take me home, in freedom, for a lifetime...
Pray now for the silence, and the last tears we'll cry
So glorious, this fire inside, united we stand.

[Chorus]
And we'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Free for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Starchaser...

Free from this world, here for the last time,
Oceans collide inside of us all,
Believe who we are,
The phoenix will guide us,
Freedom will rise once again.

Save us tonight, the last hope for all of us,
Light-years gone by, we're still holding on,
Save us tonight, a star shines in all of us,
Far beyond our lives, still our glory lives on.

[Chorus]
And we'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Free for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Starchaser...Starchaser...

Our kingdom come, we stand as one,
And we will live for always evermore...

2. The Fire Still Burns

Finally all the world will see,
Rise again before the endless silence,
Burn the soul before we'll all be free,
Light the path beneath a blackened, burning sky.

One final sacrifice, this night belongs to me,
Turn back before the dawn of winter,
So far away the cry set fallen angels free,
Through my mind tonight, our journey ever after.

Never ending solitude, this is your life to be,
So cold and dark, the voice of sadness,
Suffering in endless pain, the truth of all to be,
Crawling back to life through ever-blinding darkness.

Free falling, fates warning, find a life to hold on,
Souls stealers, true believers, rise now they are gone,
And as they ride away forsake the one to save us,
Winters mourning of a lost fallen world,
Pray now united in a lifetime alone,
Won't you wait for the silence so strong?
Wait for the dawn.

[Chorus:]
Tonight, falling like the rain insanity lives on,
Feel the shattered dreams, one thousand voices crying,
Raging endlessly they come, whoa,
And the morning light will hide the darker days gone by,
And the sun will shine again across the blazing skies,
Glorious eternally we'll rise above the world,
Marching on till victory we fight,
The fire still burns...

Looking back our passing lives, their memories to see,
Flick through the passages of silence,
Hidden by the sacrifice to set the demons free,
Now they understand reclaim the land relentless.

Fear calling, transforming, stand alone in our time,
Advocation, desolation, slay the vision divine,
And all the stars fall around the world tonight,
Silent forces from a past life return,
Pray for the silence in a world so alone,
Til' we touch the horizon beyond,
Fly through the storm.

[Chorus]

The tears in your eyes,
A lifetime of misery,
In silence we stand all alone for the fate of our own destiny,
A lifetime of lies,
One chance at this fantasy,
The judgement will pass for the cries of the world that has faded from me.

Whoa, oh oh oh,
Whoa, oh oh oh,
Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh,
Whoa, oh oh oh,
Whoa, oh oh oh,
Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh oh oh oh.

[Chorus]

3. Reasons To Live

Once again I'm here alone, my secret life awaits me,
Still a thousand miles away from a land of broken dreams,
Night falls and the screen is shining, force deception behind the lines,
Hours wasted aimlessly gone, time and time again.

[Pre-chorus:]
Try to understand, desperately lost with a dream in my hand,
Will you wait alone for me tonight?
Hold me, save me.

[Chorus:]
A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives,
One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive,
Cry for the day to return, life no one can understand,
We all face our fears in the world,
We all hold our place in the universe,
For eternity...

Hide the lines deceive myself, erase the past from my space,
Images of loneliness sent far across the land,
Once sure, but my eyes are blinded,
Frantic charge for a place to hide
Lost generations apart, an ancient life returns.

Kindness in her eyes, taken away by a man in disguise,
Won't you wait alone again tonight?
Save me, take me.

[Chorus]

[Pre-chorus]

A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives,
One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive,
Cry for the day to return, life no one can understand,

Our past lives return to us all.
Our memories will fly free forever.
So far from the cries of the world for eternity.

4. Heartbreak Armageddon

Highway of emptiness outside the burning world,
Rise again this quest for our salvation,
Running faster, the savage laughter, the daylight fades away,
Nothing left but the life we left behind,
Ever searching the hidden faces, the hatred grows inside,
Broken man and a family left destroyed.

Light years away, empty words between us,
So turn away and say goodbye for the last time tonight,
Still lost within the loneliness a lifetime ago,
Hanging on as we passed through the fields,
These pieces of our lives will lead the long journey home,
And the wounds never heal

[Chorus:]
So fly for the last time, and the fire burns within,
Silently we stand in a long forgotten wasteland,
Rise through the lost ages, hope they will bring,
Free forever more and the dream will never die.

Devastation, a lost connection, a beatdown man returns,
So confused and alone for one more time,
Crushed defeated, the fog surrounding, a prisoner trapped inside,
System down feel the veins erupt tonight.

Time after time, promises of freedom,
We'll leave the past behind and strike for the first time tonight,
Still mystified by lack of cravation they show,
After all of the trials we've been through,
These memories and empty words were all lost in vain,
And the scars never heal.

[Chorus 3x]

Whoa, oh, oh,
And the dream will never die.

5. The Last Journey Home

Strangers to reason, our bleeding hearts so cold,
Life brings a change in season, fear will blind the soul,
In the silence one moment alone,
Cast away scattered far on the wasteland.

Sever the soul from the forgotten sickness, escape this life,
Challenge the dream before the long departed a mindless rhyme,
Whoa, oh, oh,
Hear the burning thunder roar,
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhh.

Whoa, oh, oh,
Still lost in a fire storm,
Tonight we feel the past return.

Lost inside the dream, pass by the life we'll live forever,
Still the wasted time left burning below
One thousand shattered voices, lost inside in endless wonder,
Tonight her voice will take me home.

[Chorus:]
Shine glorious we run, we stare into the blackened sky,
Save the last command, the virtue blinding,
So far beyond the sun, still burning with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silent stares for our last journey home.

Paralysed, intensified mutation, frustration,
Everlasting lifetime in the underworld,
We'll travel endlessly, deluded, disjointed,
One man can't understand this sad misery.

Whoa, oh oh oh ohh,
Whoa, oh oh ohh,
Whoa, oh oh oh oh oh ohh.

They've taken my heart,
They've taken my soul,
And now we stand alone insanity.

In time we'll see the past unwind,
Alive, still wandering our fallen land,
One more time we stare into the blackened sky,
For tonight, in our hearts now we feel,
One last time see our destiny revealed.

[Chorus]

Shine glorious tonight, still blinded by the blackened sun,
Save the last command, forever rising,
So far beyond they come, still burning with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silent stares for our last journey home.

6. A Flame For Freedom

[Chorus:]
One dream in all of us still shining,
One star, the ever-lasting light,
So alone, so lost inside, to the end in paradise,
United, victorious, the hearts of our nation tonight.

In the dark December morning light,
Fall strong to the burning winds, the fires of Hell will forsake me,
Shattering the chains that ever bind us,
Suffering their pain eternally.

Four strong, smash the silence, carry on like before,
Fires burn, still we battle, lost so far away,
Storm with hell fire raging, sun shines down as they kneel,
Lost in times and long forgotten, gathering miles away.

Tears fall inside the dream, our last days gone by,
Still alive we feel the pain tonight,
Stars fall through blackened clouds, in dreams sadness reigns,
A twilight star in the thousand lights for me.

Ohhhhhhhhh.

[Chorus]

And still we save a breath for the world,
Life brings up for us all,
United, victorious, the hearts of our nation tonight.

One dream in all of us still shining,
One star, the ever lasting light...

[Chorus]

And still we save a breath for the world,
Life brings up for us all,
United, victorious, the hearts of our nation tonight.

United, victorious, the hearts of our nation tonight.

7. Inside The Winter Storm

Strangers they come with the rise of the sun,
To escape from this madness forever,
Rivers will dry, bringing holes in the sky,
As the empire is fading away.

Silently march now, where the lost souls run wild,
In a time long forgotten, forever,
Pain brings us sadness at the dawn of the world,
But this nightmare will still carry on.

Through the day we'll find a way, we're lost beneath the stars,
Faceless they fall now, and we all stand as one,
Long wasted tears, but a light forever shining,
One stand one last demand to end it all.

[Pre chorus:]
Outside the world in a fallen land, turn away from our despair,
We stand alone in a silent dream, lost within eternally,
Whoa, oh oh ohh,
Whoa, oh oh oh ohh,
Rise again and try to understand.

[Chorus:]
A light for the world will save us tonight,
Redemption still so far away,
Marching on inside of our loneliness,
Still searching for all that remains.

And time will pass me by,
But I'm not so far away,
We're the sons of the land, our lifeblood runs into the ocean,
Tomorrow we're gone, our souls rising up to the sun.

[Chorus]

It's just one wasted man in one wasted land,
Suffering, still burning, so alive,
It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Until the end of time,
Inside the winter storm.

[Pre chorus]

[Chorus]

It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Suffering so far, and so alive,
It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Until the end of time,
Inside the winter storm.

Inside the winter storm !

8. The Warrior Inside

Sonic fires bring mass devastation,
Manic search in sad desperation,
Jeopardise 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.

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 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.

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.

Blinded my eyes with your filtering mutation cast aside,
I'll still be waiting tomorrow,
Stand 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,
Can't regain this emptiness in time.

[Chorus]

See through the skies,
Far beyond the road tonight,
Here the sounds of freedom ring,
In a silent dream, and a million miles away.

See through the skies, far beyond our 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.

And the dawn of a new day will rise, a light for us all.

9. Strike Of The Ninja

[Special Edition Bonus Track]

Eternal temptation, their eyes to the sky
This nightmare is everywhere, my eyes open wide
Crash on through troubled waters, oceans collide
We stand alone until the end, we fight side by side

Standing strong together, marching forever on
Fire in the heavens, now that our time has come

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

The sky will turn black as nightfall appears
The hatred surrounding, they hide in great fear
The evil all around, the sound they will hear
Will not be for long now, the time it is near

Raising hell forever, still millenniums go by
Fire in the heavens, bleeding ears hear the cry

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

Standing strong together, marching forever on
Fire in the heavens, now that our time has come

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja tonight

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

With the ninja forever, tonight!

10. Scars Of Yesterday

[Special Edition Bonus Track]

Suffer the raging anger creeping below
Trapped in the circle, so helpless
Forces beyond
This is your last chance to die

I hear a thousand voices screaming my name
Dreams of a life forgotten now will be gone
Never to return again

Hide from the light, you feel so hypnotized
Filtered and disguised
Burning forever, try to remember
Sadness in her eyes

So many times now we've been here before
No more illusions behind the open door
Trapped within my fierce desire, resistance is futile
Screaming for your life, nowhere to hide
Tonight we cross the line, your innocence is mine

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
But is it all a waste of time?

Lost in a misery, the fatal demise
Forced to a living that no one can understand
Hiding behind all the lies

A long time in slavery, it cries out in vain
Lurking around the shadows until the end
Fearless in fatal disguise

Wake from the dream, the life you left behind
Time to understand
Lost in the laughter, life everafter
Trials of a broken man

And through this madness a new day will rise
We shall remember the pain she held inside
Fear the pain inside my heart, our sacrifice in vain
Screaming for your life, nowhere to hide
This everlasting strain, driving you insane

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
But is it all a waste of time?

Still lost in the universe, we cry for a new day to come
Break free from our loneliness, the last time
Pray tonight as we try to understand

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
I'm alive forever, my soul will ascend
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from this craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
Just a memory
Or is it all a waste of time?

11. E. P. M. (Extreme Power Metal)

[Japanese Bonus Track]

In a lifetime of decay
Sudden cry for yesterday,
When the world will see the end of eternity
Sacrifice before the dawn
Of a child soon to be born
Before the night too many tears we cried

In a long forgotten land
Through the silent raging pain
Of the price to pay that awaits for me
The end of all our destiny

Don't close your eyes tonight
For the lights beyond still shine towards a brighter day
The time has come for us tread blood across the sands
Carry on as the red rivers run

And through the wilderness we feel the pouring rain
In the silence ever searching on through the misery
And all the promises we made and cried in vain
Don't you take the time to realise the master of disguise?

Blind my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story

Far and wide forever on
Stand before the world alone we journey to the other side
Raise your hands to the sky
Through the night and through the day
Don't look back no time to pray
The battle rages on marching on and on

Don't cry for me tonight
For the lights beyond will guide me home tomorrow
The time will come for us the curse is growing strong
Carry on with the rise of the sun

So take me far away it's time to set me free
All my life I have been waiting but I could never see
Raising your hands to the sky
Turning your eyes to the sun
Pray for forgiveness
The power to save has gone for the last time

Blind my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story

Blind my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story
