ONWARD LYRICS

1. The Kindness Of Strangers

Hello!!
as you take a step back out of fear
it's just a primal reaction
Wait!!
through the eyes of suspicious is clear
why is it you don't trust me?

Gaze on a smile
that is sweet and so haunting
fixed on a feeling
so wrong and attracting
Temptation rising, paralyzing,
I won't do you harm

Gray is the hand!!
Of an elderly figure,
shaking and frail
a façade of soul darkness
Weak is the eye!!
To the passion of evil
here we both stand
we are two perfect strangers
Into my mind!!
Is the realm you shall ever discover
my truth or my unholy purpose
Please take my hand!!
Take a chance for the first time
have no fear to the kindness of strangers

Good-bye!!
I see that you are preparing to leave
is it with or without me?
Go!! - to walk alone can be paradise
that in time you will fall from

Witness a tear
that can make you so happy
a safe distance
that could leave you so empty
Logistics rising, sterilizing
it will do you harm

Strong is the hand!!
Of a young fighting soldier
clear minded strong
a detractor of frailness
Strong is the eye!!
To the passion of evil
nothing will change
we are still perfect strangers
Out of my mind!!
Is the place you will take me
to find all the lies
and discover true sadness
Let go of my hand!!
Isolation now beckons
fear I'll have
to the kindness of strangers

Together we shall be
side by side we'll always walk alone

[SOLO]

2. Onward

Onward I walk,
alone and abandoned

Feeling the wind and the icy cold rain
Feeling each step, destiny hidden
All to aware of the fear and the pain
Feeling the sting of true betrayal
now I have no one to trust but myself
I am now one, no more believer
yet there is still wind to fill my sail

A paradise I seek shall be found
The only one I'll know
I challenge failure to cut me down
'cause it's Onward I shall go
My power strength shall never die
as long as I stay alive
One word shall always be by my side
Ever moving Onward!!!!

Battles I've won,
the war I have los
My blood and my tears
they are equally spilled
The risk I shall take,
the feel of the cost
the prophecies of shattered dreams
now fulfilled
The specters they watch,
I can hear them laugh
yet I will impale onto their doubting eyes
Victory due one of these days
revenge will silently
come all in due time

Onward on - never underestimate my force of will
Onward on - never I will hesitate to know
that I will fight!!

[SOLO]

Onward I walk, with each step now close
but closer to something that might not be there
Using the rage, feeling the hunger
the book that I read always has a new page
Come strike me down, take all that you need
Resilience is my newfound weapon of choice
Again I will rise, one day I will win
as long as I sing Onward cry from my voice!!

3. The Waterfall Enchantress

A crystal river is flowing
and falling below
Fact or fiction
I've heard the tale
of death lady's cove
Many men come here
to seek the enchantress divine
lured by her power to heal saddened,
heartbroken minds
She stands behind the falls
that crush the bodies onto jagged lime
Blood mixed with water a crimson stream
now washes through mine

I can hear her song, a haunted melody
I can now see her face, unequaled beauty

Legend does say
a fearless heart
will cross the falls unharmed
But who doth have
a fearless heart that's also broken

A warrior am I who's fought
not wars of swords and armor
The thirst of loneliness
I've tried to quench for all my life

Moving closer I gaze
onto healing emerald eyes
Song of solace breathes
through the lips of soothing red wine
Long flowing hair blows
through whispers of wind from my dreams
Two arms that will embrace and hands
that will caress my longing face

Her voice now calls me clear
my fear's abandoned
Lustful were other men
whose souls have fallen

Can't see the spray
that whips my face
and robs the air I breathe
Thunder falls,
such power that it dwarfs my body

Yet I continue on
even if it means that I will drown
to know that I have felt
the hope she gives forever moving

Moving on and on
To what ending? I still hear her song
Under or through the waterfall
I now shall go

[SOLO]

Behind me water falls
my body is left behind
My soul now in her arms
enchanted I'll remain
on, on forever on...forever enchanted

4. The Last Sunset

5 scores and 3 years my life's seen
My minds last command is read to me
No angel of death will take me away
my fear's washing away

So still while I'll rest
gaze upon the last sunset
Feel no cold, and I still see
no fabled guiding light

My life's before my eyes
I'm ready now
My blood will flow its final round
Onward to death the only way
I'm not afraid

Last smile, last pure breath
fade with the last sunset
I shall go to a place
that I remember long ago

Soft endorphins soothe my mind
dancing shadows play
as I die.

[SOLO]

Never departed or saw my body from above
a ghost I would not be
No memories of heaven or hell
or of the Guff final passing

Open my new eyes
gaze upon the first sunrise
For now I'll forget
the day I'll see the last sunset

It's unending, all connecting
never pausing, so relenting
Lives uncounted, days unnumbered
different bodies we live forever

5. Absolution Mine

Scared, oh where of body disappeared
kidnapped of my mate
without a trace
(no case)
Tried to find,
until I lost my mind
What crypt found on this earth
would hold your place?
(I am)
Lost of cause
not knowing where you are
or more important
dead or you alive
(I need)
To know the fact,
final answer if you will
If I only could sleep now
once again

Absolution
here I am at the end
Absolution
realized finalized
Absolution
without a sound, you are found
Absolution
seek my peace of mind

But wait, too late
Unfinished still I feel
Revenge is my own way
to feed my rage
(I have)
Found the clown
who toys with evil thoughts
Good deeds were things
that he lost long ago
(here I)
hide with time,
patience is on my side
When sleep will gall of then
I shall now strike
[repeat]
Life you took,
the method you will share
and absolutely you will say
good-bye!

Absolution
once again at the end
Absolution
realized finalized
Absolution
all is said, now you're dead
Absolution
found my peace of mind

Final, finne, over, ending
all my past thoughts gone
Good does it feel
when your mind can heal
and life can now move on
I feel satisfied
Absolution mine!!

[SOLO]

Absolution mine!
Absolution mine!!

6. Witches Winter Eternal

Snow on Easter
cold is this morning gray
Frozen noontime
no flowers will bloom today
I hear laughing
Over her land of endless white
I am hungry
She'll feed a cold dish tonight

Her white winter eternal
cursed in stone
of the lion's silent roar
Icy winter eternal
warmth of springtime
caught in nevermore

Together
we'll stand forever in stone
The world is mine
in frozen time
Whenever you dream of summer
too late
Open your eyes
to a northern frigid sky

Iron cauldron
boils of Antarctic brew
Frozen nighttime
her fire burns only blue
For she enjoys it
Her tit is the metaphor
One can wonder
will this be forevermore?

Wind filled winter eternal
cursed in stone
is the sand time warrior
Witches winter eternal
dreams of summer
lost in nevermore

[Repeat chorus]

[SOLO]

[Repeat chorus]

7. Storm Coming Soon

change in wind course
blowing to northeast
the wrath of sky unseen
but when the birds stop singing
crickets quiet its kind days quarantine
The wind's kiss is getting wetter
darkening, the truth of leaves now lie
Even though the air's electric,
so eclectic
I choose not to hide

It's time to cleanse the land again
so red was the morning sky
The endless clouds look so fed
The strongest elements collide
Welcome to nature's greatest show
by the eye of the morning moon
With a twisted smile I now know...
storm coming soon!

Humble branches bow and face the other way
the sky's now evil green
Electric claw of lightning, applaud
power so unseen

One with the storm I here will stand
so red was the morning sky
On a higher plane I will command
The strongest elements collide
To see the center of it all
by the eye of the morning moon
Wisdom I'll find or I shall fall
storm coming...soon
From the red of the morning sky
by the eye of the morning moon
storm coming soon

I feel sheltered yet I'm still outside
Now I enter onto the unknown inside

[SOLO]

One day you'll know...
By the red of the afternoon
by the light of the evening moon
midnight coming soon

8. The Lost Side Of The World

The sun has set, the sky so red
harmless clouds are drifting high and pale
The moon so bright will make the night
only as black as a widows vale
Some stars will live,
some stars will fall
Northern lights will dance
to no sound at all

Yet I hear song, of winter's wind
Through trees so long...dark whisper

The rest will sleep,
their dreams they'll keep
I'll stay awake to sensitize the night
I can hear such sounds
no one else can hear
life it is so mystical
it's just that they have gotten used to it
Wolf's tears have fallen down
remember me of lost saddened memories found

Still awake. Alone I'll take
Into my mind my midnight's kind
Day only hides the sounds
that play within the dark
embrace your fears so near
When you know that there's no one else
around for miles,
your conscious will be clear

I have found the (sacred)
lost (secret) side (love)
of the world...
laced in true mystery

I live in the (never)
lost (ending) side (time)
forever here I shall stay...
