THE HUNT IS ON
Lyrics by Fred Morg
Ear drums bleed - The creature crashes down
Dragging its victims, prolonging their suffering
Weary-eyed - Torture throughout the night
Heads pound from earaches, From braving the deafening tide
ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WAVES
PUMMELED BY SOUND
AND FROM THIS MOMENT NOW
THE HUNT IS ON
Listening - Is not an option but
Rather a toll paid, Amongst the surviving
You'll pay too - Witness the onslaught
Watch as your loved ones, Kneel as it runs them through
ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WAVES
PUMMELED BY SOUND
AND FROM THIS MOMENT NOW
THE HUNT IS ON
OUT TO GET YA! ……….. COMIN FOR YA!
RUN!!
MONSTERS OF SOUND - SCREAMING OUT LOUD
MONSTERS OF SOUND - CRUSHING THE CROWD
Soaring through the smog-poisoned air - Capturing prey through its icy stare...
Terror rise and bring forth the day - When all bow and send praise its way...
Terror rise and bring forth the day - When all bow and send praise its way...
Ear drums bleed - The creature crashes down
Dragging its victims, prolonging their suffering
Weary-eyed - Torture throughout the night
Heads pound from earaches, From braving the deafening tide
ASSAULT WITH DEADLY WAVES
PUMMELED BY SOUND
AND FROM THIS MOMENT NOW
THE HUNT IS ON
RUN!!
MONSTERS OF SOUND - SCREAMING OUT LOUD
MONSTERS OF SOUND - CRUSHING THE CROWD

LIFE IS SUFFERING
Lyrics by Fred Morg
Live to suffer life's unforeseen pain in everything
And live beyond the shadows of a doubt
Live to suffer the worst of days, crushed in every way
And leave behind shattered bits of pride
No finding joy without some sadness
Dark is just a growing lack of light
World - a well-lit stage set for the broken
Find solace in the dead of night
Find solace in the dead of night
LIFE IS SUFFERING...PEACE IN DISARRAY
Life's passion comes from lack of knowing
What to expect from day to day
Along with life comes sudden chance of heartbreak
Freewill cuts puppets from their strings
Freewill cuts puppets from their strings
LIFE IS SUFFERING… CALM WITHIN THE STORM
No one ever… promised you
No bad things… would come to you
Long and hard we fear the worst, just to find a world of hurt
Expectations raised up high; desperation to the sky
WE - SCRATCH AT THE WALLS - WAIT FOR THE FALLS - SUFFER IT ALL
You can't make it better - just accept to suffer on
WE HOPE, WE DREAM, WE LIVE, WE SUFFER….ALONE
WE HOPE, WE DREAM, WE LIVE, WE SUFFER….ALONE
Life's passion comes from lack of knowing
What to expect from day to day
Along with life comes sudden chance of heartbreak
Freewill cuts puppets from their strings
Freewill cuts puppets from their strings
LIFE IS SUFFERING...CALM WITHIN THE STORM
WE BRAVE THE STORM.

RIDE ON
Lyrics by Bill Dixon
From just a boy to now a man
He's traveled all across the land
He's seen the good, he's seen the bad
He's seen a glimpse of what he could've had
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
From the mountains to the valleys
From the oceans to the streams
From the city to the country
To all the wonders he has yet to see
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
Far from the past behind him, and onwards towards the sun
Loud pipes drown out the demons that haunt him
A ghost of the places, now far behind
All he leaves are memories, a picture in a mind
Each day like the next, He has little sense of time
He knows one purpose, get on that bike and ride
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
RIDE ON - RIDE TO THE END
On through the night he rides
This is his battle cry
It's a way of life
Get on that bike and ride...

SAMSARA
Lyrics by Fred Morg
SAMSARA
Living and lying
SAMSARA
Dying and crying
The proof you're looking for
Is not worth searching for
You make the bed in which you're lying
KARMA'S WEIGHING DOWN YOUR LIVES
SOULS KEEP SEARCHING FOR WHAT'S RIGHT
SAMSARA
Living and dying
SAMSARA
Lying in waiting
The proof you're searching for
Is time you're wasting so
Improve this life in which you're living
KARMA'S WEIGHING DOWN YOUR LIVES
SOULS KEEP SEARCHING FOR THE BRIGHT SIDE
Footprints left behind by wounded souls,
Leave behind the scars of blissful worlds,
Still time left to shift and make amends,
Before good deeds meet their final ends
THIS LIFE COULD RUIN THE NEXT…..CAREFUL WHERE YOU CHOOSE TO TREAD
CYCLES OF LIFE LEAVE THEIR MARK…...LEAVING MANKIND IN THE DARK
SAMSARA
Living and lying
SAMSARA
Dying and crying
The proof you're looking for
Is not worth searching for
You make the bed in which you're lying
KARMA'S WEIGHING DOWN YOUR LIVES
SOULS KEEP SEARCHING FOR WHAT'S RIGHT
KARMA'S WEIGHING DOWN YOUR LIVES
SOUL'S STILL SEARCHING FOR IT

GRASP AT THE SKY
Lyrics by Fred Morg
Master of words already spoken
Leader down paths already taken
Wait - live like a heathen
Saving yourself right at the end
Cowardly self-indulgence
Living a life led to regress
Shameless hoarding of pity
Catapult through the world alone
GRASP AT THE SKY
CUZ YOU NEVER REALIZE ALL THE STRENGTH YOU HAVE TRAPPED INSIDE
WASTING AWAY TIL THEY SAVE YOU
GRASP AT THE SKY
MAYBE GODS WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE- SINCE YOU THREW AWAY THE WILL TO TRY
PRAYING "RESCUE MY SOUL”
(Soul-)starved, desperate for healing
Still much too proud to acknowledge
Climb - stomping on others
Beg for forgiveness but not from them
Steam-powered self and transgression - throw aside hollowed shells of pride
Replace with endless compassion
Master of shifting deflection - rotting entrails trapped inside
Replace with endless compassion
Take time, rectify
Master of words already spoken
Leader down paths already taken
Wait - live like a heathen
Saving yourself right at the end
GRASP AT THE SKY
CUZ YOU NEVER REALIZE ALL THE STRENGTH YOU HAVE TRAPPED INSIDE
WASTING AWAY TIL THEY SAVE YOU
GRASP AT THE SKY
MAYBE GODS WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE- SINCE YOU THREW AWAY THE WILL TO TRY
PRAYING "RESCUE MY SOUL"

LYDIA
Lyrics by Fred Morg
The quest for currency is brutal - Turns men into beasts
They clutch belongings in their talons - On others' weaknesses they feast
From its inception man has lusted - Lures man into snares
The center pillar of existence - For what else does he even care?
GREED TORN AND BLINDLY KILLING FOR
THE PROPHECY
SO SAYETH THE ANCIENT CURSE OF
BLOOD-STAINED COINS OF LYDIA
We butcher flesh in honor of it - Fed off the sickness
We put ourselves in danger for it - Cannibals devouring emptiness
And cursed by want, it takes us over - Strike blind the true needs
By forging evil from the alloy - The seeds of self-indulgent deeds
GREED TORN AND BLINDLY KILLING FOR
THE PROPHECY
SO SAYETH THE ANCIENT CURSE OF
BLOOD-STAINED COINS OF LYDIA
Money - Rules the kingdom - Power
Awarded to the wealthy - Never has time changed this
We struggle on - and fight for next to none
Steady rivers flowing through mountains of shame and deceit
Envy swimming upstream
Some want it so badly they start to fray
Civilizations left to decay
So what has currency shown us? - The faces underneath
The lack of trust has taken over - Fuel for the raging flames of greed
So in this moment man must challenge his pride to shut down
All that these coins can ever offer - More weight to crush you to the ground
GREED TORN AND BLINDLY KILLING FOR
THE PROPHECY
SO SAYETH THE ANCIENT CURSE OF
BLOOD-STAINED COINS OF LYDIA
Money - Rules the kingdom - Power
Awarded to the wealthy - Never has time changed this
We struggle on - and fight for next to none

SAVE ME
Lyrics by Bill Dixon
Wake up in the morning and your head is spinnin' 'round
No recollection of the night before
Get yourself together with a little hair of the dog
Shower and a shave and you're out the door
THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE COME TO KNOW AS LIVING
DYING JUST A BIT MORE EVERY DAY
CALLING OUT BUT NOBODY IS LISTENING
SOMEBODY SAVE ME
Spending more and more for you to be yourself
What worked before isn't helping now
Caught in a downward spiral out of control
Bringing yourself further and further down
THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE COME TO KNOW AS LIVING
DYING JUST A BIT MORE EVERY DAY
CALLING OUT BUT NOBODY IS LISTENING
SOMEBODY SAVE ME
Light turns to darkness, pleasure to pain
Can't stop the walls from closing in
You're in a nightmare, you can't awake
You'd rather die than fight to live
Somebody save me
It's almost over now, you've reached the end
Taking you down from the inside
Your body's too weak, your mind is blown
And now there's nowhere left to hide
...Chains that hold you- like a force it owns you
And you'll never climb out- of this hole you've dug around you
Hope has faded- all you do is wait now
For the end- that surely comes to you
WAKE UP

NIGHTMARE
Lyrics by Bill Dixon
Don't close your eyes - don't fall asleep
Your nightmare is calling to you
Safe in the light - so you want to believe
Let down your guard and it's in
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run to
Can't get away from your mind
Your demons are laughing, they're calling for you
Only a matter of time
SCREAM - IF IT HELPS YOU TO DEAL WITH THE PAIN
FIGHT - IF YOU THINK IT'LL GET YOU SOMEWHERE
CRY - WHEN ALL ELSE SEEMS TO HAVE FAILED
AND WELCOME TO YOUR NIGHTMARE
Shadows around you - voices you hear
Change your reality
A moment of weakness - a slight touch of doubt
Is all that the evil will need
All that you though you knew, gone forever
When it takes control
Nothing can stop it, it won't go away
Waiting to take hold
SCREAM - IF IT HELPS YOU TO DEAL WITH THE PAIN
FIGHT - IF YOU THINK IT'LL GET YOU SOMEWHERE
CRY - WHEN ALL ELSE SEEMS TO HAVE FAILED
AND WELCOME TO YOUR NIGHTMARE
Don't close your eyes - don't fall asleep
Your nightmare is calling to you
Safe in the light - so you want to believe
Let down your guard and it's in
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run to
Can't get away from your mind
Your demons are laughing, they're calling for you
Only a matter of time
SCREAM - IF IT HELPS YOU TO DEAL WITH THE PAIN
FIGHT - IF YOU THINK IT'LL GET YOU SOMEWHERE
CRY - WHEN ALL ELSE SEEMS TO HAVE FAILED
AND WELCOME TO YOUR NIGHTMARE
