Thin hung the web like a trap in a cage,
The fox lay asleep in his lair.
Fang's frantic paws told the tale of his sin,
Far off the chase shrieked revenge.
   Outcast he trespassed where no wolf may tread,
   The last sacred haunt of the dead.
   He learnt of a truth which only one wolk may know,
   The sceptre and crown of a king.
   Howling for blood, One-eye leads on the pack,
   Plunging through forest and snowstorm.

Steep rose the ridge, ghostly peaks climbed the sky,
Fang sped through jungles of ice.
Hard on his tail, One-eye drew from the pack -
An old hero conquered by none.
   Steep, far too steep, grew the pathway ahead,
   Descent was the only escape.
   A wolf never flees in the face of his foe,
   Fang knew the price he would pay -
   One-eye stood before him
   With the crown upon his head,
   Sceptre raised to deal the deadly blow.

Fang, son of Great Fang, the traitor we seek,
The laws of the brethren say this:
That only the king sees the crown of the gods,
And he, the usurper, must die.
   Snarling he tore at the throat of his foe,
   But Fang fought the herd in vain.
   Dawn saw the white mountain tinted with red -
   Never would the crown leave again.
   One-eye his the crown and with laurels on his head
   Returned amongst the tribe and dwelt in peace.

Standing in a forest gazing at the sun
   looking at the trees but there's not even one
See a rippling stream that smiles and then goes by
   run to feel its comfort but the water's dry.

I see her face and run to take her hand
Whey she's never there I don't understand
The trumpets sound my whole world crumbles down

Visions of angels all around
   dance in the sky
Leaving me here
   forever goodbye.

As the leaves will crumble so will fall my love
   for the fgragile beauty of our lives must fade
Though I once remember echoes of my youth
   now I sense no past, no love that ends in love

Take this dream the stars have filled with light
As the blossom glides like snowflakes from the trees
In vengeance to a god no-one can reach.

Visions of angels all around
   dance in the sky
Leaving me here
   forever goodbye.

Ice is moving and world's begun to freeze
   see the sunlight stopped and deadened by the breeze
Minds are empty bodies mor insensitive
   some believe that when they die they really live

I believe there never is an end
God gave up this world its people long ago
Why she's never there I still don't understand

Visions of angels all around
   dance in the sky
Leaving me here
   forever goodbye.

Here today the red sky tells his tale,
   but the only listening eyes are mine
There is peace amongst the hills,
   and the night will cover all my pride.
Blest are they who smile from bodies free,
   seems to me like any other crowd
   who are waiting to be saved.

Wait, there is still time for washing in the pool,
   wash away the past.
Moon, my long-lost friend is smiling from above,
   smiling at my tears.
Come we'll the path to take us to my home,
   keep outside the night.
The ice-cold knife has come to decorate the dead,
   somehow.

And each will find a home,
And there will still be time,
   for loving my friend
   - You are there -
And I will wait for ever, beside the silent mirror
And fish for bitter minnows amongst the weeds
                              and slimy water.

I want to sit down
I want to take a drink of water.
I want a drink - I want a drink,
To take all the dust and the dirt from my throat,
To wash out the filth that is deep in my guts.

THEN LET US DRINK - THEN LET US SMILE
- THEN LET US GO.

See my hand is trembling
   touching all that's real
Once it stroked love's body
   now it claws the past.

   The scent of a flower,
   The colours of the morning,
   Friends to believe in,
   Tears soon forgotten,
   See how the rain drives away, another day.

If a leave as fallen,
   does the tree lie broken?
If we draw some water,
   does the well run dry?

   The sigh of a mother,
   The screaming of lovers,
   Like two angry tigers,
   They tear at each other,
   See how for him lifetime's fears disappear.

Once Jesus suffered,
   Heaven could not see him.
Now my ship is sinking,
   The captain stands alone.

   A pawn on the chessboard,
   A false move by God will now destroy me,
   But wait, on the horizon,
   A new dawn seems to be rising,
   Never to recall this passerby, born to die.

Tell me my life is about to begin
   Tell me that I am a hero,
Promise me all of your violent dreams
   Light up your body with anger.
Now, in this ugly world
   it is time to destroy this evil.
Now, when I give the word
   are you ready to fight for your freedom?
Now -

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
   We must strike at the lies
   That have spread like disease through our minds.
Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest
   And we'll spread out our kindness
   To all who our love now deserve.
Some of you are going to die -
   Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide.

I'll give you the names of those you must kill,
   All must die with their children.
Carry their heads to the palace of old,
   Have them on stakes let the blood flow.
Now, in this hate-filled world
   we must break all the chains that have bound us.
Now, the crusade has begun
   we shall make this a land fit for heroes.

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
   We are only wanting freedom.
Some of you are going to die,
   Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide.
