SHADOWS OF STEEL LYRICS

1. Hawk And Lion

[The Hawk:]
So far away, deep in the night
I feel the spirits around me
How many times they'll try to take me
And I will fly to the day

[The Lion:]
Now the wind is blowing telling tales of winter
I know the feeling, will you keep me warm
Many leaves are falling and the time is waiting
Slow down lonely, the light is fading

[The Hawk:]
I know, my wings are broken
I know, I will be falling
I pray, my time has come to the end
And there's no answer

[The Hawk:]
Deep in my soul, I hear your call
I feel the whispers and voices
There is no way, life is a cruel game
I will get lost in the dark

[The Lion:]
Only you can hold the key
Of my heart and my dream
I'm a jester, I'm a king
See the world inside of me
Now the fall is getting near
The night is getting cold
Free your mind and close your eyes
We're gonna leave it

[Hawk and Lion:]
I know, Shadows are leaving
I know, Heroes are landing
My love, we'll fly as high as the sun
But there's no heaven

[The Hawk:]
There's a way to follow
I will come back to the light

[Heroes:]
Fly away and rise again

[The Lion:]
...and I will find you

[The Hawk:]
One day I will remember
One day I will forgive you

[The Lion:]
Day as Lions, you know that I'm goin' to
Climb the highest wave of the see

[The Hawk:]
I know, my wings are broken
I know, I will be falling
I pray, my time has come to the end
And there's no answer

[Hawk and Lion:]
I know, Shadows are leaving
I know, Heroes are landing
My love, we'll fly as high as the sun

2. Twilight

[The Lion:]
There was a time when I saw the light
I made a dream and I found a way
I don't remember, I'll never know
Why did I want to open that door
I was lost in the Shadows, oh no
I was lost in the Twilight of my world
No, I don't know why
I walked away so many miles
Deep in my soul I was calling your name
Crying alone I was losing my friends
I found myself down on my knees
I know the end was coming near
I was lost in the Shadows, oh no
I was lost in the Twilight of my world
I was lost in the Shadows, oh no
I was lost in the Twilight, oh no
I was lost in the Shadows, oh no
I was lost in the Twilight of my world

3. Goodbye

[Flute:]
He's crying alone
In to the night
Feeling so cold

[The Hawk:]
I was dreaming with my mind, you were on my side
Now you're gone and days are passing by
Please save me, don't leave me
So take me, I need your love

[The Lion:]
I don't know why Heroes are falling
And there's no time to say Goodbye
I see the flames are burning down to your land
Burning for evermore

[The Lion:]
Can you feel, I send you whispers in your dream
Can you feel...

[The Hawk:]
Now the time has come to pay, I will fade away
And I know it's just another tale
Don't save me, now leave me
Don't take me, I need to go

[The Hawk:]
I want to fly, Eagles are rising
And there's no time to say Goodbye
I see the light, Shadows are fading away
I hear you're calling

[The Lion:]
I don't know why Heroes are falling
And there's no time to say Goodbye
I see the flames are burning down to your land
Burning for evermore

4. Fly Away

[Heroes:]
Fly away, rise again
Fly away, soon or late
Fly away, play your Shadow
Smash the windows
Fly away...

[The Lion:]
Many voices, many faces
Many questions with no answers
Many windows with no pictures
Many doors are open now
I know the castles are burning
Burning, burning
I know the seasons are changing
Changing, changing
I know it's easier to hide myself
There in the corner of my room
But I can try again to look outside
And I can dream to fly away
Many stairways, many bridges
Many starlight's all around me
There's a room I will no visit
Now the story's over
I know the castles are burning
Burning, burning
I know the seasons are changing
Changing, changing

5. Destination Unknown

[Savage Grace cover]

Nations rise, nations fall by self - determination
People live
Cultures die, the scythe of progress reaps
Forevermore
Shattered lives, pave their way to ultimate
Salvation
The dark of heart feed their fires of passion
Burning madly for more war

[Chorus:]
And the fools take command, to decide how we
Live, how we die as they need, on the blind
Men lead
Destination unknown, who holds the key to
Find our destiny

[Lead Break]

[2nd Verse:]
As we race toward the edge of global
Self - destruction
Will it be our legacy, to leave this world a
Future without past
Dying lands, born of greed, swell with
Starving masses
The men whose deeds condemn them all, feed
Only their need destroying more

[Chorus]

[Lead Break]

[3rd Verse:]
The time to lie, the time to fear have left us
Without vision
To guide us now, we must somehow let our hearts'
Desire light our way

[Chorus]

6. Prelusion

[Exxplorer cover]

7. Run For Tomorrow

[Exxplorer cover]

People of the village gather round
Before the cross aflame, burns down
Hallowed be thy land and sea
The victims of their tyranny
We run with passion - run with might
We run from fear - run from fright

We're forced and chased from our home
We travelled far, to lands unknown
Our kingdom's rule has fallen apart
We've left our warriors with brave hearts
Men of steel with the razors edge
From their swords, many have bled
Try to escape - try to fight
Try to conquer - with all of our might

[Chorus:]
Run for tomorrow - towards the rays of the sun
Don't give up - the fights just begun
Run for tomorrow - don't turn your back, just run
Run for tomorrow - by the way of the stars
Follow it up, tomorrow is ours
Run for tomorrow, don't turn your back, just run

Our faulty rulers' days are done
We try to seek cover, but there is none
The days of old, the long days have passed
The sands of life, are fading fast
Words of prayer, hold us abound
A land of peace - we haven't found
Time and life, our soldiers foe
Run for tomorrow - and so we are told

[Chorus]

8. Painted Skies

[Crimson Glory cover]

When she's sad the world is lonely
Silver clouds are crying only
for the pain she feels
so deep inside

The love she thought would save her
has somehow now enslaved her
To a dream she though she wanted
to come true

Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free
In painted skies that shade the colors
of your dream
Only nightmares are real
Confusion conceals the only reason
for the feelings you can't hide

When she smiles the world it shines
But the silver clouds are only there
to hide the distant storm
that's coming soon

The love she let surround her
becomes the waves that drown her
in the sea of everchanging
warmth and cold

Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free
In painted skies that shade the colors
of your dream
Only nightmares are real
Confusion conceals the only reason
for the feelings you can't hide
You can fly

Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free
In painted skies that shade the colors
of your dream
When the nightmares ensue
All that you can do is paint your sky
another brighter shade of blue
Spread your wings you can glide
above the violent storms
that plague your life
You paint the picture blue or grey

Fly away

9. The Calling

[Agent Steel cover]

In every living thing in this planet is an aura.
The area that you are discussing now is the aura of this planet.
It is the Communicative Channel to which the
Million Council governs this planet.
Anyone going into the area when the Communicative Channel is open
do not disappear, but they are in the timeless void.
They are perfectly alive and well.
It is only area to which the Council can communicate with this planet.

10. Agents Of Steel

[Agent Steel cover]

Back in the days we first sighted
Their shields gleaming bright in the sky
The light that was brighter than fire
Forced cowards to run out of spite

Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel

Feel the day getting closer
They'll return for the masses to see
I shed a tear when they left us
My heart now bleeds for their coming

Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel

The signs prepare for their coming
Now you know that it's clear
You know that we'll be returning
Once more, but not for too long

Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
Masters of metal, agents of steel
