IRON MAN LYRICS

1. Burn The Sky

Break down the walls, which hide my destiny
Earthly prisons, and chains that bind the sea
Titan mountains, shattered dreams vast and far
Guard the only window, gateway to the stars

Elemental boundaries-Earth,Water,Wind,and fire
The eternal heavens, to which there is none higher
The surreal horizon, which Icarus tried to fly
Never to burn my wings, for I shall burn the sky...

[Chorus:]
Can you get the fire burning?.. Will you try?
Will you be a mindless soul, or will you burn the sky

Passion and possessions, are restrictions of the mind
What I am searching for, and what I leave behind
So we sit, and only take what's given
Never to dream beyond, or ask for what is hidden

[Chorus:]
Sweltering heat of roaring passion... grow with time
Will you cower at imminent end... or will you burn the sky

So many times we're told, that it can't be achieved
Forced-fed and brainwashed, to things we should believe
Chained with emotions, bound to a false reality
No vision of what lies beyond, a hazard fantasy
No passion to press onward, thriving for supremacy
Sparking life of creative minds, the key to immortality

Never shall I believe, restrictions other say
Smashing through these walls, and obstacles in my way
Cursing my soul, for ideas that passed me by
Grabbing the reigns of my dreams, it's time to burn the sky

[Chorus:]
Feed the savage flames... or commit deicide
Will you become a God like me, and start to burn the sky

2. Run From The Light

As we are told, to enter heaven's divine
Repent and rapture, you must go into the light
Stray from a beaten path, remorse for all your sins
Icons at the gates, will surely let you in

[Chorus:]
Caution deception, that burns so bright
Heed thy warning, and run from the light

Cowering in darkness, when death brings us the end
Awaiting the afterlife, one's faith does pretend
Merciful and righteous, you'll reap the great rewards
Immortal in bliss, Reign eternal forever more

[Chorus:]
Caution deception, that burns so bright
Heed thy warning, and run from the light
Welcomed temptations, you now must fight
Saving your soul, run from the light

Such a surprise, when you think you've saved your soul
Such a demise, after death you realize there is no goal
Striving for the now, gleaming future glows so ever bright
Preservation of one's self, for this is the only light

If we are to suffer, when choosing what is right
Then why so easy, to always find the light
Living hell on Earth, to gain a holy desire
Forewarned that light, is also caused by fire

[Chorus:]
Run from the light ...run from the light... run from the light

3. Curse The Ages (Curse Me)

Curse the ages, time spent on this earth
All False hopes, since the day of my birth
Curse the reasons, what should and shouldn't be
And all that is divine, the one who's cursed is me

Stubborn, like a mountain side
In you, I won't confide
knock down, merits you earn
Cast out, lazy will to learn
Imprisoned, like brain to skull
Implode, no self control
never see, pitfalls under feet
Won't accept, the goodness cursed on thee

Curse the patterns, showing cause for alarm
And the souls, that have always done me harm
Curse conditions, that molded minds this way
The cries and screams, unheard for another day

Why search for things untrue
Only one cursed is wretched you
Cursing others, and placing blame
You're the one, who lives in shame

Won't Stand up, and get in line
Narrow Minded for the asinine
Your self army, is only one strong
Lonely life, for you is too long

Stubborn, like a mountain side
In you, I won't confide
knock down, merits you earn
Cast out, lazy will to learn... [overlapped by "CURSE THE AGES..CURSE ME"]

[Lead]

Imprisoned, like brain to skull
Implode, no self control
never see, pitfalls under feet
Won't accept, the goodness cursed on thee ... [overlapped by "CURSE THE AGES..CURSE ME"]

4. Sodden With Sin

Stay away from the 7 deadly
They'll surely lead you astray
Don't mind the fact that man commits them, each and every day
Why is every great indulgence
Considered evil taboos
Restricting all of man's pleasures, a souls redemption he shall loose

[Chorus:]
Endulging, never languishin'
Exploit emotions within
Bearing sinister grin
SODDEN WITH SIN

Straight narrow minds that follow
These strict rules to obey
Fearing God; cardinal virtues, the soul is the highest price to pay
Committing 7 deadly sins
Ordaining the heavenly virtues
Damnation awaits the masses, for the actions that we now choose

[Chorus]

Pride in everything that you do
Envy others who have more than you
Greedy for earthly treasures, angry for not obtaining these pleasures
Lust the love that never gives back
Gluttonous soul, now turns to black
Man is sloth now accepting his fate, sodden with sin; it's too late

[Chorus]

5. Blind-sighted Forward Spiral

Full throttle, accepting my fate
Any unknown horrors to come
'Cause for me, grandeur awaits
Accepting all, won't settle for some
Never watching where I walk
My life's always been a coin toss
Dead dreams, outlined in chalk
Less regrets, for things that I've lost

[Chorus:]
I'm on a blind-sighted forward spiral
I'm on a blind-sighted forward spiral

Won't take no, for an answer
Blazing fire coursing through my veins
Scarring past, looms like a cancer
Razor blades slicing through my brain
Pressing onward, no time to look back
Not realizing, any misguided turns
Assimilation, for things I lack
Surviving pain, the only way I learn

[Chorus]

Absurd passions, engine fed by steam
Spirit charged, solar powered might
Many times, lead a solo team
Chasing taboos, clear conscience I fight
Skin weathered, my frame so weak
Heart is empty, perished soul shall burn
Blind-sighted, yet still I shall seek
Forward spiral, I shall never return

6. Days Of Olde

7. I Have Returned

They claimed I was gone, condemned and convicted
Ostracized, fate sealed tight
Resurrection the wise predicted
Overseen all Mankind, false idols pretended
Worship one, his only son
My Earthly reign never ended

Once Man was strong, the meek were protected
Now saturnine, sullen life
My teachings they rejected
Thy throne awaits for me, foretold by the profit
My rebirth, reclaim the Earth
And the universe that surrounds it

[Chorus]
The time has come to choose, wrong or right!
Will it be EVIL or DIVINE
Blackened darkness, Holy light
Chaotic fury, passive benign
...I Have Returned

I laugh as I cry, watching Man's demise
One and all, see them fall
Cutting their plights down to size
It's Man's right to choose, unbeknownst by me
To seek delight, or careless fight
Their own masters of their destiny

[Chorus]
[Lead]
[Chorus]

Your future lies with me, gates gold and pearl
Angelic choir, Holy desire
Where peace and love are eternal
Armies rise from the sea, 7 crowned headed whore
Creating war, on every shore
Until Man exists no more... I have returned... I have returned

8. Gomorrah Gold

It's not wrong, if it's not right for you
It's my life, to do what I choose
At the end, if it seems was a mistake
It's still my right, to choose a path to take
Be my friend, share same goals as me
Or thorn in side, my true enemy
One's respect, calculated by my trust
Ordained morals, soon annulled by my lust

[Chorus:]
Seeking many bountiful dreams
Cornucopia of lustful schemes
Life is for the taking, Gomorrah Gold
And when things seem to end
You're at loss, not me my friend
I've sought the pleasures in Gomorrah Gold

What I seek, many others have sought before
Gomorrah Gold, a satisfied spirit yet wanting more
Revel in excess, smothering crest of my desire
Hoarding stash, needs and wants that I acquire
Show no shame, scornful fingers directed my way
Come along, the time is now, live for today
Gomorrah Gold, a primal instinct in everyday life
Victorious mind, vanity surely beats pain and strife

[Chorus:]
Void both time and space
my existence soon erased
Lived a pleasured life with Gomorrah Gold
When my time is done
I'll be judged by no one
Thine is forever, Gomorrah Gold

Now you know, just exactly how I feel
Live my life, cherish only what is real
Love thy own, not deterred by mortal things
Answer to none, won't be judged 'cause I am king

9. Fallen Angel

On the day, I believed my life would change
When you descended unto me
Thought you to be, a gift from above
Oh how I was deceived

I can't believe, I loved something evil
You were once my guiding light
Spoken actions, that promised only lies
Devil creature with angel's hide

[Chorus:]
You crowned me king, and to my surprise
Pulled the world from under me
You fell from the heavens to become my demise
You're my fallen angel

Promised eternal life, caring from the heart
Why was I too blind to see
Now I'm salvaging my world fallen apart
From the arrows you Aim ed at Mee

Time now has healed, most of my scars
But the pain still dwells within
Arriving unto me, an angelic entity
Departing a demons lust for sin

10. Among The Filth And Slime

Breeding in the dust and grime, spawned since the dawn of time
Lusting hunger for gold and power, life around turns bitter sour
Practice the laws that they preach
Life sucking social leech
Twisting the laws that they make
So easily choose, the ones they break
Attorneys, politicians, and clergy, all decide what's right for me
Their flesh is bought so easily, all hail, praise the god money

[Chorus:]
I can't believe, what fools we are
Allowing them to reign, this long so far
Their true nature, will show with time
As for now we live among ... the filth and slime

Poisoned breath with restricting hold,
Forcing lives into a mold
Made to play their corrupt game, only ourselves we can blame
Delusional talk can surely deceive
Make you think what they believe
Altered words, supreme command
Iron fisted heavy hand
Attorneys, politicians, and clergy, all decide what's right for me
Their flesh is bought so easily, all hail, praise the god money

[Chorus]

Creating more of their kind,
Spreading their diseased crazed minds
Masking lies with fantasy, choking truth becomes reality
Spewing forth their lusting brain
Considered genius, now quite insane
Loathing stench of their hide
Scum and villainy, you must abide
Attorneys, politicians, and clergy, all decide what's right for me
Their flesh is bought so easily, all hail, praise the god money

[Chorus]
