The Elder
Just A Boy
( Stanley,
Ezrin )
Who steers
the ship through the stormy sea
If hope is lost then so are we
While some
eyes search for one to guide us
Some are staring at me
But I'm no
hero, though I wish I could be
For I am just a boy, too young to be sailing
I am just a boy and my future is unveiling
And I'm so frightened of failing
While some
eyes search for one to guide us
Some are staring at me
But I'm no
hero, though I wish I could be
I am just a boy, too young to be sailing
I am just a boy and my future is unveiling
And I'm so frightened of failing
Odyssey
( Powers )
From a far
off galaxy, I hear you calling me
We are on an odyssey
Through the realms of time and space
In that enchanted place
You and I come face to face
Once upon
not yet, long ago someday
Countless times we've met, met along the way
Through
the luminescent night
On beams of neon light
You and I in wing-ged flight
As we cross the starry sea, powered by what we see
Now and then, the victory
There's a
child in a sundress, looking at a rainy sky
There's a place in the desert, where an ocean once danced by
There's a song in the silence, weaving in and out of time
We are notes in the music, searching for remembered rhyme
On a
mountain high somewhere
Where only heroes dare
Stand the stallion and the mare
We have been and we shall be each other's destiny
One another's odyssey
We've met
along the way
Met along the way
Only You
( Simmons
)
Only you
have the answers
But the questions you have to find
Only you know the secrets
But the truth lies deep in your mind
Only you
are the answer
You turn the night into day, yeah, yeah, yeah
Only you are the manchild
You are the light and you are the way
Tell me
the secrets, I wanna know
Tell me the secrets, I wanna know
Only you
Only you
are the manchild
You are the light and you are the way
I can't
believe this is true
Why do I listen to you
If I am all that you say
Why am I still so afraid
Only you,
only you
Only you
In every
age, in every time
A hero is born, as if by a grand design
Under The
Rose
( Simmons,
Carr )
Though you
may be pure of heart and free of sin
And though you have been chosen to begin
And yet you must be worthy of the prophecy
But seek and you shall find your destiny
Loneliness
will haunt you, will you sacrifice
Do you take the oath, will you live yourlife
Under the rose
The more
you hurt the less you feel the pain
And the more you change, the more you stay the same
But now before you lies the quest at hand
And from this boy you may become a man
Do you
understand, will you sacrifice
Do you take the oath, will you live your life
Under the rose
Dark Light
( Simmons,
Frehley, Fig, Reed )
Look out,
'cause there's something wrong
And you don't know what it is
Watch out, or it's Sodom and Gommorah
The malevolent order
Right now, before it's much too late, before it's much too late
A dark
light, a darkness never ending
A dark light, the devil gets his due
A dark night, is everywhere descending
A dark light, is coming for you
Now look
up, well the skies are black
And they're getting darker all the time
Watch out, for the things that you believe in
You're gonna be attacked, and you won't know what it is
Wise up, you better watch your step, you better watch your step
A dark
light, a darkness never ending
A dark light, of perversion and hate
A dark night, is everywhere descending
A dark light, there's no time to wait
Look out,
for the death of love
There will be no more love
Watch out, it's yourself that you are fooling
Who do you think you're fooling
Shout it out, it's a terrible thing, such a terrible thing
A dark
light, a darkness never ending
A dark light, the sun is turning cool
A dark night, is everywhere descending
A dark light, is shining at you
Dark light,
dark light
Is shining at you, dark light
A World
Without Heroes
( Simmons,
Stanley, Ezrin, Reed )
A world
without heroes
Is like a world without sun
You can't look up to anyone
Without heroes
And a
world without heroes
Is like a never ending race
Is like a time without a place
A pointless thing devoid of grace
Where you
don't know what you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why you don't know
In a world without heroes
In a world
without dreams
Things are no more than they seem
And a world without heroes
Is like a bird without wings
Or a bell that never rings
Just a sad and useless thing
Where you
don't know what you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why you don't know
In a world
without heroes
There's nothing to be
It's no place for me
The Oath
( Stanley,
Ezrin, Powers )
Like a
blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire-bright to the night I take
I fear not
Now compelled by something I cannot see
I go forth surrendering to history
Your glory, I swear I ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be
Through a
dream I have a come to an ancient door
Lost in the mist
I have been there a hundred times or more
Pounding my fists
Now inside, the fire of the ancient burns
A boy goes in and suddenly a man returns
I gave my
word and gained a key
I gave my heart and I set it free
There's no turning back from this odyssey
Because I feel so alive suddenly
And I wonder, is this really me
Like a
blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire-bright to the night I take
I fear not
Now compelled by something I cannot see
I go forth surrendering to history
Mr.
Blackwell
( Simmons,
Reed )
I never
said I was more than I am
Do what I want, I don't give a damn
You're all so weak you know it makes me ill
Don't like you now and probably never will
You cheat
and lie, and wonder why
You can't sleep at night
You're not
well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
Why don't you go to hell
I am a
sinner who just loves to sin
I am a fighter who just loves to win
I am the truth about this crummy hole
There's nothing here that can't be bought or sold
You're
cold and mean and in between
You're rotten to the core
You're a
victim, a real disgrace
You should be banished from the human race
We'll
drink to sorrow then we'll drink to waste
We'll drink a toast to the inhumanrace
Here's to the world and the times we're in
Here's to the kid a real man among men
You're
cold and mean, and in between
You're rotten to the core
I
( Simmons,
Ezrin )
I was so
frightened
I almost ran away
I didn't know that I could do
Anything I needed to
And then a
bolt of lightning
Hit me on my head
Then I began to see
I just needed to believe in me
Then I, I
believe in me
Oh, oh, and I, I believe in something more
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
Oh, oh, and I, I believe in me
Ooh yes, then I, I believe in something more
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
Listen,
they said I didn't stand a chance
I wouldn't win no way
But I've got news for you
There's nothing I can't do
Ain't no
pretending
Ain't no make believe
But I've got to be the one
I gotta do what must be done
Then I, I
believe in me
Oh, oh, and I, I believe in something more
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
Well you know that I, I believe in me
Ooh yes, then I, I believe in something more
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
I believe in me, yes, I believe in me, yeah
I don't
need no money
I don't need no fame, no
I just need to believe in me
And I know most definitely
Don't need
to get wasted
It only holds me down
I just need a will of my own
And the balls to stand alone
'Cause I,
I believe in me
Oh, oh, and I, I believe in something more
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
Oh, ooh, ooh, and I, I believe in me (you feel it too don't you)
I believe in something more (yeah, come on)
Than you can understand, yes, I believe in me
Well do
you really, yes, I believe in me
Do you, do you, yes, I believe in me
I wanna rock 'n' roll, yes, I believe in me
