RING OF FIRE LYRICS

1. My Déjà Vu

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Viltalij Kuprij]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Vitalij Kuprij Music]

My déjà vu
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong

My déjà vu
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong

My déjà vu
There is no one like you
What can I do
Now that you’re gone

There is no time
There is no space
In the land of nevermore
The midnite sky goes on forever
A sea without a shore

Strange memories
Calling to me
Speaking in my own words
I start to remember, the feeling returns

There is a princess behind a golden door
It’s so familiar, like I’ve been here before

I’ll follow my dream
It’s my destiny to bring you back with me

My déjà vu
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong

My déjà vu
There is no one like you
What can I do
Now that you’re gone

Just out of reach
Like sand on the beach
The waves keep reaching for more
Eternal flame, in stormy weather
Keeps burning like before

Out of the blue
Visions of you
Come crashing into my brain
So hard to recover, it drives me insane

There is a princess behind a golden door
I know the feeling, like I’ve been here before

I’ll follow my dream
It’s my fantasy to bring you back with me

My déjà vu
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong

My déjà vu
There is no one like you
What can I do
Now that you’re gone

I’ll follow my dream
It’s my fantasy to bring you back with me

My déjà vu
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong

My déjà vu
There is no one like you
What can I do
Now that you’re gone

My déjà vu
(My déjà vu)
I still remember you
My dream come true
A feeling so strong
(A feeling so strong)

My déjà vu
There is no one like you
(What can I do)
What can I do
Now that you’re gone
(Oooh no!)

2. Dreamtower

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

Deep in the night you awaken
To a feeling so alone
Don’t know which path you have taken
Your surroundings so unknown

Are you still sleeping
This can’t be reality
Your bed is floating on clouds on the open sea

Now, finally
You can see
That you are

Dreaming inside a dreamtower
The dream within a dream
Dreaming inside a dreamtower
Nothing is what it seems

How many doors must you open
‘Til you find the (one) to escape
All your words remain unspoken
Memories have been erased

Are you still sleeping
This can’t be reality
All (movements) frozen
Now you have been chosen

To be
Finally
In the place that you are

Dreaming inside a dreamtower
The dream within a dream
Dreaming inside a dreamtower
Nothing is what it seems

Suddenly elucidated
And your dreams have all gone away
Everything so complicated
It’s so hard to ascertain

Are you still sleeping
This can’t be reality
Look out your windowpane
Now you are floating in space

Once again
You can see that you are

Dreaming inside a dreamtower
The dream within a dream
Dreaming inside a dreamtower
Nothing is what it seems
(No!)

Dreaming inside a dreamtower
The dream within a dream
Dreaming inside a dreamtower
Nothing is what it seems

(Dreaming that dream within a dream in Dreamtower
Dreaming that dream within a dream in Dreamtower)

3. The Pharoah's Curse

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Viltalij Kuprij]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Vitalij Kuprij Music]

For ten thousand years undisturbed
Under the earth
The treasures of mighty kings
Strange happenings

The knowledge of ancient earth
Riddles of antiquity
Frozen in time
Manage to survive

The children of the sun
Awakened and disturbed
Can’t be reversed

The strangers thought they never
Find themselves forever
Haunted by the Pharaoh’s curse

In perfect alignment and size
Pyramids of the Nile
Mirroring distant stars
Strange counterparts

The knowledge of ancient earth
Riddles of antiquity
Frozen in time
Manage to survive

The children of the sun
Awakened and disturbed
Can’t be reversed

The raiders thought they never
Find themselves forever
Haunted by the Pharaoh’s curse

The children of the sun
Awakened and disturbed
Can’t be reversed

The raiders thought they never
Find themselves forever
Haunted by the Pharaoh’s curse

(Nooo!)

4. Refugee Of The Free

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

Apocalypse liberty
Resolute enemy
Always demands another sacrifice

Said to illuminate
Another world create
Only the innocent will pay the price

Public absentee
From reality
Propaganda to believe

No one is willing to trace the trajectory
Of systems of treachery
Aimed right at you and me

Evolution
Coming down on me
Revolution
Refuge of the free

TV mentality
Intelligence mockery
Daily destruction feeds the appetite

Total apathy
Perfect strategy
Counting the numbers like a game

Behind the scenes partners pretending to disagree
Forcing distraction from their real anarchy

Evolution

Coming down on me
Revolution
Refuge of the free

Infomachinery
Hypocrite prophecy
Goes from illusion to insanity

Public absentee
From reality
Propaganda to believe

No one is willing to trace the trajectory
Of systems of treachery
Aimed right at you and me

Evolution
Coming down on me
Revolution
Refuge of the free

5. Blue Sky

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

I wake up and wonder
How many days are gone
I look out my window
The blue sky goes on and on

Now my mind goes round and around
Feeling like I’m lost and found
Life is just a mystery
Guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be

No way to know by now
The happy ending
I’ve got to find somehow

Every time I remember
I get captured by the memory of you
Suddenly I can’t go on

I’ve traveled so far now
But you’re all I think about
Remember the last lime
We just tried to talk it out

Life is just a mystery
Guess that’s the way it’s supposed to be

No way to know by now
The happy ending
I’ve got to find somehow

Every time I remember
I get captured by the memory of you
Suddenly I can’t go on

No way to know by now
The happy ending
I’ve got to find somehow

Every time I remember
I get captured by the memory of you
Suddenly I can’t go on

6. Laputa

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

Archipelagic
Counter attraction tactics
Science and magic
In Laputa

Abstracts nomadic
Blood line aristocratic
Something so tragic
In Laputa

The music of spheres resounds
In a symphony of sound
A floating cloud domicile
Laputa, celestial isle

Phantasmagoric
Kaleidoscopic stories
Time metamorphic
In Laputa

Kingdom exotic
Citizens aeronautic
Victims of logic
In Laputa

Just watching the world below
With knowledge nobody knows
Our destiny intertwined
Laputa is yours and mine

The music of spheres resounds
In a symphony of sound
A floating cloud domicile
Laputa, celestial isle

Just watching the world below
With knowledge nobody knows
Our destiny intertwined
Laputa is yours and mine

(Laputa, celestial isle)

7. Until The End Of Time

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Viltalij Kuprij]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Vitalij Kuprij Music]

On a journey celestial
To a planet forbidden
All alone on a mission of hope
That’s where I found you

Now forever you cast your spell of love on me
And I will love you ‘til the end of time
Forever mine
Until the brightest stars fall from the sky

When galaxies die
I’ll stand by
Our love will still survive

Whatever it takes
I’ll dedicate
Into infinity

Until the end of time

I was lost in a shadowland
‘Til I saw your light shining
Mesmerizing my mind with your thoughts
You were so beautiful

Now forever you, cast your spell of love on me
I will love you ‘til the end of time
Forever mine
Until the brightest stars fall from the sky

When galaxies die
I’ll stand by
Our love will still survive

Whatever it takes
I’ll dedicate
Into infinity

When galaxies die
I’ll stand by
Our love will still survive

Whatever it takes
I’ll dedicate
Into infinity

Until the end of time
Until the end of time

8. System Utopia

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Virgil Donati and Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Gildon Music BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

On the sea of clouds
On the shores of heaven
From the north to the south
To the portals of time

On a desert isle
On a untouched mountain
On a river wild
Searching for the sublime

An imaginary state
So hard to create

System Utopia
Crystal domain

The simplicity
Of a single vision
An eternity
That is one of a kind

An imaginary state
So hard to create

System Utopia
Crystal domain

An imaginary state
So hard to create
System Utopia
Crystal domain

System Utopia
Home on the range

9. Ghost Of America

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Tony MacAlpine]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Eyes on the Prize BMI]

From the deserts to the oceanside
From the mountains to the plains
From two thousand years of peaceful life
To only strife and pain

Came to move them from ancestral homes
Bringing howling winds of war
To see the endless sky and earth below
Nevermore

Death and destruction
Came rolling from all directions
Then came the deal makers
Selling their lies

A forgotten people
Forced to wander the earth

Never respected
Only (neglected)
Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor
Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated
Never defeated
Theirs is the ghost of America

Many generations had come and gone
But their land was never changed
Life in harmony with nature reigned
Until the white men came

Until they said this is our promised land
It's our eminent domain
Let's destroy all traces of the past
Let nothing remain

Death and destruction
Came rolling from all directions
Then came the deal makers
Selling their lies

A forgotten people
Forced to wander the earth

Never respected
Only rejected
Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor
Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated
Never defeated
Theirs is the ghost of America

Death and destruction
Came rolling from all directions
Then came the deal makers
Selling their lies

A forgotten people
Forced to wander the earth

Never respected
Only rejected
Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor
Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated
Never defeated
Theirs is the ghost of America

10. Invisible Man

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Virgil Donati]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Gildon Music BMI]

Under the cover of darkness I sleep
In an empty street
With the collection of memories to keep
There is no one to meet

People pointing their face to the sky
Never wondering why

A unique specialty
Turns to madness

They don’t understand
Nobody can
Don’t know who I am
Invisible man

A small grain of sand
I reach out my hand
Invisible man

I try to tell them but no one can see
What is happening to me
Everything coming apart at the seams
But at least I am free

Sometimes I feel like I don’t want to try
But I’m too lonely to die

A unique specialty
Filled with sadness

They don’t understand
Nobody can
Don’t know who I am
Invisible man

A small grain of sand
I reach out my hand
Invisible man

They don’t understand
Nobody can
Don’t know who I am
Invisible man

A small grain of sand
I reach out my hand
Invisible man

They don’t understand
Nobody can
Don’t know who I am
Invisible man

A small grain of sand
I reach out my hand
Invisible man

11. Make Believe

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Viltalij Kuprij]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Vitalij Kuprij Music]

Yesterday
Seems like a long time ago
I found out
What I still don’t know

Please don’t say things will never be the same
Just for today

Let’s just make believe that we’re in love again
Any fool could see we’re more than only friends
Let’s just make believe we’re sorry and pretend
Instead of going our separate ways
Let’s make believe

I won’t mind
If the sun doesn’t shine
A day without you is just a waste of time

We’ve come too far to throw it all away
Just for today

Let’s just make believe that we’re in love again
Any fool could see we’re more than only friends
Let’s just make believe we’re sorry and pretend
Instead of going our separate ways
Let’s make believe

Oooh...

Let’s stay together once again
Until forever

Just take my hand
You’ll understand
All that I am

I want you back with me
Why can’t you see
How it could be

Let’s just make believe that we’re in love again
Any fool could see we’re more than only friends
Let’s just make believe we’re sorry and pretend
Instead of going our separate ways
Let’s make believe
(That we’re in love again)
Let’s make believe

(Let’s just make believe we’re sorry and pretend
Instead of going our separate...)

12. Murder By Numbers

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Virjil Donati]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Gildon Music BMI]

The silicon city
Would like to welcome you in
But there is no pity
And no one is your friend
Be careful how you connect

Data combines in so many ways
So many numbers get out of place
Digital crime can happen to you
Your numbers taken by somebody new

Just when you think no one’s watching you
And all your systems are safe
A warning light means it’s already too late

Now your computer won’t understand
Anything you try to say
An empty screen
No way to communicate

Now you are nobody
Your life has been taken away
Now you just keep falling
Like you’re a victim of fate
Every system is failing you

Run out of water, run out of food
It’s hard to breathe, it doesn’t look good
Losing your senses, losing your mind
Silence so loud is your lullaby

Just when you think no one’s watching you
And all your systems are safe
A warning light means it’s already too late

Just when you think no one’s watching you
And all your systems are safe
A warning light means it’s already too late

Now your computer won’t understand
Anything you try to say
An empty screen
No way to communicate

13. Undone

[Bonus for Europe]

[Lyrics and Melodies by Mark Boals / Music by Viltalij Kuprij]
[2002 Boalsongs BMI / Vitalij Kuprij Music]

In a dark world
You’ve been waiting so long
Now the feeling is so strong

Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
Never surrender
Just keep fighting to survive

Try to break free
And someday you’ll see
The true light of liberty
Like the rising of the sun
Shining on everyone

Run
The race has begun
Run
It’s time to become
Undone

Like a time bomb
Slowly ticking away
Silently comes the rampage

Written in blood
All over the world
(There’s) no peace
Until justice has been unfurled

Has to be all
Or nothing at all
Until the last drop falls
‘Til the world becomes as one
‘Til darkness is overcome

Run
The race has begun
Run
It’s time to become
Undone

Try to break free
And someday you’ll see
The true light of liberty
Like the rising of the sun
Shining on everyone

Has to be all
Or nothing at all
Until the last drop falls
‘Til the world becomes as one
‘Til darkness is overcome

(You get your) run
The race has begun
Run
(Now your) time has come
Run
It’s time to become
Undone
