Return Of The Tyrant EP
09:44
|

"There was a ship. Cursed, with black sails and crewed by the damned… or so the legend says. Scores of souls were lost, sent down below to Davey Jones. Then one day, it vanished… as if the ship was swallowed up by the sea itself. It’s said that on moonless nights the cursed ship returns to torment the waves, with its crew of the damned and its captain with a heart of pure black. Every sailor knows the legend and the name: Tarranno Del Mar… Tyrant Of The Sea."
Sailing through the gates of hell
Ten score years in wait, it served him well
Cast in shackles, a madman betrayed
Fed the anger that’s burning inside of him
Broken chains, now he takes to the waves again
The tyrant’s rage
Talons reach toward the sky
Pitch the banner black and raise it high
Cut-throat, insane, lost souls of the damned
Cursed eternal, the captain and crew with him
Rule the seas, the legend revived again
The tyrant’s reign
CHORUS:
What secrets lie below the cold grey waters?
Moonless nights we rise
The tyrant rides again
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to turn
When the time has now come
The tyrant will rise again
SOLO: LT / MARK / LT / MARK
The seeds of death for all are sown
Dragged below the waves to Davey Jones
Torn asunder and plundered their gold
Shown no mercy, the Tyrant dispatches them
Trim the sails, new conquests await the rage
Of the Tyrant’s blade
REPEAT CHORUS

A bad place, a dark space
The lines that weather my face
I stand alone before the storm
Walk with me and you’ll see
The flame that burns within me
A fire so cold to keep us so warm
You see the darkness in my eyes
The seed of life inside me dies
A search for the truth, to find a reason why
A voice cries out in pain in the night…
CHORUS:
Riding the storm wind
And facing the demons inside
A thousand sins behind my eyes
A cry from the blackness
Alone with the darkness inside
Forever will I walk against the wind…
No rhyme and no reason
My world betrayed by treason
I stumble blind, what’s going on?
Can’t see the road that lies beyond
A need to feel where I belong
When everywhere I turn seems to guide me wrong
Running through the night for so long…
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: MARK / LT / MARK

Rain (Unplugged)
05:20
|
|||
Darkness closes in
And I turn and face the storm
Midnight in the rain
Like a thousand times before
Oh… I feel the sorrow coming, world succumbing
Oh… I feel the sadness tear me away
CHORUS:
The rain keeps falling down on me
Of pain and life unwound to be
The rain keeps falling down on me
And darkness all around
As the rain falls down
Falls down on me…
A feeling of an empty life
Of broken heart, of broken dream
So tear the sonnet from my soul
Silent words unseen
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: LT / MARK / LT
REPEAT CHORUS

100 Reasons (Unplugged)
04:38
|

The future’s bright I tell you
Another perfect day
All our baggage packed we climb
Aboard this sinking ship
And so we sail…
Takes a second to say hello
And forever to say goodbye
Turn the cheek of a blind denial
Into another lie
PRE-CHORUS:
Oh, playing out this masquerade
Hold on to the dream
How long can we travel down this road we made?
Go on alone and leave me far behind
CHORUS:
I tell myself we’re all okay
(I can) think of a hundred different reasons
For me to make you stay
I leave you now and go my way
To find a change of season
To help me get my feet back on the ground
Inside it’s so frustrating
A heart wrapped in golden chain
Always searching for the rainbow
Always waiting in the rain
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS

Paradise (Unplugged)
05:29
|
|||
I felt so weak, all hope was gone
My skin blistered slowly away
Gangrene and Smallpox – no life left inside of me
The pain that I felt was unreal…
PRE-CHORUS:
I make my last stand as success comes my way
My bones gain their strength, nothing stands in my way
The final encounter decides who will win
Desire to live will survive…
CHORUS:
Running away to paradise – victory in my sights
Running away to paradise – the gods are on my side
My body aching – scarred, torn and wretched
Forced to go on through the pain
Was it will that revived me, brought life back inside of me
With blood flowing fast though my veins…
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS and CHORUS
SOLO: MARK
REPEAT CHORUS x 2

Vision born of dream-like lucid flames
Crimson light mastered by faceless names
Burning passion or a timeless force
Voices speak of shadows rising forth
PRE-CHORUS:
Once were dreaming
Now are living
Feel the rain begin to pour
Hear the wind lift off and soar
CHORUS:
Eternal storm
Restless souls
Eternal storm
Restless souls embrace the dying dawn
Nightmares destroying mortality
Creating dreamscape reality
Lost and forgotten our spirit sought
Forced upon us ways of lifeless thought
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: MARK

New Horizons (Unplugged)
05:40
|
|||
Another city passes in the darkness
Another country come and gone
And on this never ending road I wander
Seems like I’m always on the run
CHORUS 1:
So long ago
I chose this lonely road
To follow new horizons
So far to roam
A million miles from home
So many more to go…
In another life I could have been the everyman
Another tale untold for me
Cursed by the gypsy’s kiss and driven onward
To reap the winds, forever free
CHORUS 2:
So long ago
I chose this lonely road
To follow new horizons
So far to roam
But one thing I know
One day I’ll find that road
That takes me home
Solo: LT / MARK
Another plane, another train
Another thousand miles of road
And one more day, I’ll find my way
Home to you…
Now I sit here waiting in the darkness
My thoughts a million miles away
Of all the things I’ve done, all the sights and wonder
Not one thing could make me stay (one more day)
REPEAT CHORUS 2
SOLO: MARK
