SAXON LYRICS

1. Gothic Dreams

[Instrumental]

2. Unleash The Beast

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

Danger inside deep in your mind
Beware of the Beast that's within you
In towers of stone he walks alone
Close to the edge of your dreams

Shrouded in time the end of your line
The curse of the past walks among you
In temples of gold the myth will unfold
Your destiny waits there for you

Unleash the Beast
The time has come
Feel the fire in your soul
It's time
Unleash the Beast

In pages of old when fables were told
Of a time when the beast was among you
In dark gothic rooms you search for the runes
To break from the spell that still binds you

Deep in the mist you just can't resist
To follow the path that will free you
Like grains of sand that slip through your hand
The end of the curse still eludes you

Unleash the Beast
The time has come
Feel the fire in your soul
It's time
Unleash the Beast

Unleash the Beast
The time has come
Feel the fire in your soul
It's time
Unleash the Beast
Unleash the Beast

Danger inside deep in your mind
Beware of the Beast that's within you
In towers of stone he walks alone
Close to the edge of your dreams

Unleash the Beast
The time has come
Feel the fire in your soul
It's time

Unleash the Beast
The time has come
Feel the fire in your soul
It's time
Time

Unleash the Beast

3. Terminal Velocity

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

Get your kicks in the edge of the sky
Twenty miles up from the borderline
Feel the rush as your body drops through the air
Take a step right into space
Take the blast right in your face
Ya tumbling down, down towards the ground

Time has come, paid your dues
Take a chance, light the fuse
Step right up, stand in line
In thirty seconds time
Your at terminal velocity
Terminal velocity

Adrenaline rush on a maximum high
Thirty thousand feet to the end of the line
Ya screaming down towards the world below
Push yourself out dive into air
Take a leap the devil may care
Ya ride the wind across the open sky

Time has come, paid your dues
Take a chance, light the fuse
Step right up, stand in line
In thirty seconds time
Your at terminal velocity
At terminal velocity

Terminal velocity

Time has come, paid your dues
Take a chance, light the fuse
Step right up, stand in line
In thirty seconds time
Your at terminal velocity
Terminal velocity

Get your kicks in the edge of the sky
Twenty miles up from the borderline
Feel the rush as your body drops through the air
Take a step right into space
Take the blast right in your face
Ya tumbling down, down towards the ground

Time has come, paid your dues
Take a chance, light the fuse
Step right up, stand in line
In thirty seconds time
Your at terminal velocity
At terminal velocity

Terminal velocity
Terminal velocity

4. Circle Of Light

[Byford/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

You're far outside your body now
Looking down you see yourself below
Standing on the precipice
You could be leaving soon
The life you know
Waiting for your guardian
To take you up towards the astro plane

Follow me walking to the circle of light
Follow me this could be the end of your life
Follow me

Floating there above yourself
You watch the doctors try to save your life
Will you live or will you die
Your fate depends upon the surgeon's knife
Detached from all reality
You let yourself be pulled towards the light

Follow me walking to the circle of light
Follow me this could be the end of your life
Follow me, follow me, follow me

You listen to the voices now
They tell you that its not your time to leave
Then suddenly you feel the pain
Your body jerks and you begin to breathe
Through the haze you see the knife
Will this be the one to take your life

Follow me walking to the circle of light
Follow me this could be the end of your life

Follow me walking to the circle of light
Follow me this could be the end of your life

5. The Thin Red Line

[Byford/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

You'd better sleep with your rifle
Keep your powder dry
You'll be fighting for your country
See the colours fly
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You're the men from Harloch
You'll be standing proud
You're the Queen's light infantry
Sing out loud
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You came for the glory
To fight and to die
You stood in the thin red line
Remember the heroes
When stories are told
They died in the thin red line
In the thin red line

Stand steady in the ranks boys
You gotta hold your fire
We'll show 'em what we're made of
When they hit the wire
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You'll be thinking of your loved ones
That you left back there
Then the sound of the bugle
Cuts the cool night air
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You came for the glory
To fight and to die
You stood in the thin red line
Remember the heroes
When stories are told
They died in the thin red line
In the thin red line

Now you lay with your comrades
Far across the sea
Where you're fighting for the Empire
Did you die for me
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You'd better sleep with your rifle
Keep your powder dry
You'll be fighting for your country
See the colours fly
They'll be coming in the morning boys
You gotta hold the line

You came for the glory
To fight and to die
You stood in the thin red line
Remember the heroes (remember the heroes)
When stories are told
They died in the thin red line

You came for the glory (you came for the glory)
To fight and to die
You stood in the thin red line
Remember the heroes (remember the heroes)
When stories are told
They died in the thin red line
In the thin red line

6. Ministry Of Fools

[Byford/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

Your talking on the TV every single day
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
Deny responsibility find someone to blame
When it comes right down to it
You're all the fucking same

We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools

We listen to your promises they're just a pack of lies
Maneuvering your followers to draw the battle lines
You don't admit to anything you think you'll never fall
But come the revolution you'll be first against the wall

We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools

Your talking on the TV every single day
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
We listen to your promises they're just a pack of lies
Maneuvering your followers you draw your battle lines

We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools

We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening (we're not listening)
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry
We're not listening
We're not listening, ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry of fools

7. The Preacher

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

Would you let this stranger take your hand
Do you think he sees the promised land
Holy fire, holy water

Anoint the faithful break the sacred bread
Will the message get inside your head
Let the Preacher take your hand

Come and stand among the chosen few, oh, oh, oh
Let the Preacher lay his hands on you, woah, oh, oh

Fire and brimstone send you straight to hell
Gather round beneath the mission bell
Holy fire, holy water

Come and stand among the chosen few, oh, oh, oh
Let the Preacher lay his hands on you, woah, oh, oh

See the mighty how they fall from grace
Bring the shame upon this chosen place
Let the healer take your hand

Come and stand among the chosen few, oh, oh, oh
Let the Preacher lay his hands on you, oh, oh, oh

Come and stand among the chosen few, oh, oh, oh
Let the healer lay his hands on you, oh, oh, oh

8. Bloodletter

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

You never see him out in the sunlight
He's waiting for the shadows to fall
Moving under cover of darkness
Searching for a victim to maul
Lock up your doors so tightly
Keep all your windows shut
'Cause on this night the blood will flow
Flow before the dawn

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter

Roaming in the valley of darkness
Never moving far from the grave
Waiting at the edge of your nightmare
Seeking out the blood that he craves
So if your hear a tap on your window
You know that your time has come
On this night the blood will flow
Flow before the dawn

In the night wrap up tight
Vampires bite
Bloodletter, bloodletter

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Scream in the night
Keep out of sight

You never see him out in the sunlight
He's waiting for the shadows to fall
Moving under cover of darkness
Searching for a victim to maul
Lock up your doors so tightly
Keep all your windows shut
'Cause on this night the blood will flow
Flow before the dawn

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Bloodletter

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

In the night wrap up tight
Vampire strikes
Bloodletter, bloodletter

Bloodletter
Bloodletter
Bloodletter
Bloodletter

9. Cut Out The Disease

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

You make your living from backstabbing
You're just a snake in hand made boots
You slither round like something slimy
Nothing's ever what it seems

Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit
Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit

You circle around just like a vulture
You're waiting for your piece of meat
Beneath your charm there's something hiding
The way you spin your vicious web

Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit
Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit

We did it all - we did it all for you
Did it all - we did it all for you

Once, you were our friend
But you betrayed us in the end

Confrontation was your weakness
Evil lies behind that smile
You slither round like something slimy
You're just a snake in handmade boots

Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit
Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit

Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit
Cut out the disease
The lies and deceit

Once, you were our friend
But you betrayed us in the end

10. Absent Friends (Song For J.J.)

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter/Glockler]

You went in the morning
We didn't say good-bye
The friends that you left here
Wonder why, wonder why

I wish I could see you
Just for a day
Tell you we missed you
And ask you to stay
Ask you to stay

To absent friends
This one's for you
This one's for you
To absent friends
This one's for you
This one's for you

You went without warning
We didn't even know
Just like the good ones
It was your turn to go
Your turn to go

To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you (this one's for you)
This one's for you
To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you (this one's for you)
This one's for you

When we're together
You stand by our side
We'll raise our glasses
And toast you tonight
Toast you tonight

You went in the morning
We didn't say good-bye
The friends that you left here
Wonder why, wonder why

I wish I could see you
Just for a day
Tell you we missed you
And ask you to stay
Ask you to stay

To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you (this one's for you)
This one's for you
To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you (this one's for you)
This one's for you
To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you (this one's for you)
This one's for you
To absent friends (to absent friends)
This one's for you
This one's for you
This one's for you

11. All Hell Breaking Loose

[Byford/Quinn/Scarratt/Carter]

Dark clouds gather in the east
Calm before the storm
The devil sends his messenger
Hurricane is born
Lightning cracks across the sky
The tempest has begun
Raging forces take control
Destruction soon will come

Tearing up smashing down rolling on and on
Smashing through getting close
The time to run has gone
Twist and turn on its path
Crashing through your valley
This is nature's killing ground
You're in tornado alley

All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection
All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection

Turn your heads towards the sky
Pray for your salvation
You can't stop this mighty force
It's not of your creation
Death and chaos all around
This is not a dream
Caught inside the deafening roar
No one hears your scream

Tearing up smashing down rolling on and on
Smashing through getting close
The time to run has gone
Twist and turn on its path
Crashing through your valley
This is nature's killing ground
You're in tornado alley

All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection
All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection

Lightning cracks across the sky
The tempest has begun
Raging forces high above
Nowhere left to run
Dark clouds gather in the east
The calm before the storm
The devil sends his messenger
Hurricane is born

Tearing up smashing down rolling on and on
Smashing through getting close
The time to run has gone
Twist and turn on its path
Crashing through your valley
This is nature's killing ground
You're in tornado alley

All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection
All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
Screaming down across the sky
There is no protection, protection, protection

All hell breaking loose coming in your direction
All hell breaking loose
