DAWNBRINGER LYRICS

1. Alien

Every night
An echo in the wind
From the voices in the distance
Every night
They're calling me to them
Will this never end
Same old song again

I don't know where I belong
Everything I do is wrong
And I don't know if I can carry on

Every night
The fire on the shore
See glowing in the distance
Every night
It burns forevermore
Leads me through the dark
Right back to the start

I don't know where I belong
Everything I do is wrong
And I don't know if I can carry on

[Solo: Bill/Chris]

2. The Burning Of Home

Hide your sons
War has come
All as one
We are done

The horrors are nearing
It's a thousand to one
There is no justice in what has begun

Flames will rise
Fill the skies
Terrified
All of us die

The end is approaching
And none will survive
Take off your armor
Fall on your knife
Fall on your own knife
And run from your life

3. Nobody There

In better times
With peace of mind
You came to feed
On what I bleed

Lonely in the night
Lonely in the night

Then morning came
And so did they
This empty room
Your sorry truth

Look behind your eyes
Look behind your eyes

There's nobody there
Who will you run to?
When there's nobody there
There's nobody there
Who will you run to?
When there's nobody there

You found my tracks
Came crawling back
Some fragile child
Lost in the wild

Forty days and nights
Forty days and nights

You kept the pace
And found this place
The lights are on
But I'm long gone

There's nobody there
Who will you run to?
When there's nobody there
There's nobody there
Who will you run to?
When there's nobody there

Change is bound to come
You will die alone
And I will in solitude

4. Xiphias

A traveling hunter
From a family of one
Swimming to the surface
At the setting of suns
In the cold of the moment
All the need is the same
Feed the fire that warms the eyes and brain

Keep strong your defenses
Chasing dangerous prey
Faster than the shooting shark
With a bone for a blade
Yet even when swallowed
Could still tear you up good
If that won't work a trace of mercury should

We will not survive
For I am trapped inside
I have heard those waves before
I must row this ghost to shore

All the people of heaven
And the powers that be
Gather round the altar
From the giants at sea
And nobody's leaving
Til the conscience is fed
And still no plans to walk on land instead

We will not see his face again
He will not come this way again
We will never be safe again
Up from the sea
Then never seen again

5. Hands Of Death

Lost again
Empty house
Up the stairs
Don't turn around
Down the hall
Find the door
I know this place
I've been here before

I'm not afraid to face the faithful
When the hands of death are mine
This is the one that we braced for
Staring down the ends of time

Hear a noise
In the dark
Whisper voice
Still beating heart
Little one
Left alive
One tiny grave
With them all inside

I know the fire awaits me
Because the chill is gone
I know the light shall take me
Upon the coming dawn

6. One-Eyed Sister

Their graves are shallow, their numbers unknown
One day we'll find them all safe in their homes
After the madness, she lies with them now
And all of the sorrows who rest in the ground
Who rest in the ground

I turned my back again
She saw the horror of the blade
Then she bled everywhere
And I'm the one to blame

I called the ambulance
Sure is coming slow
At least she can't see me now
And she must never know

She's not coming back
She'll be living in a bed
Hospital corridors
And the hollows of her head

One-eyed sister [8x]

7. Damn You

On a restless night
As you're searching for the light
Was it just a dream you had?

Or am I really there
Just floating in the air?
Does it end this way?
Have I come back to say?

Damn you
Damn you all
Damn you
Damn you all

Now that I am here
And my purposes are clear
I'm looking right at you

This is no nightmare
Your prayers are not prayers
Are you now prepared to greet the ghosts of hell

Damn you
Damn you all
Damn you
Damn you all

Damn you
Damn you all
Damn you
Damn you all

8. Not Your Night

Whenever you hear my whisper
You will know that I am there
You may never see my face again
Yet you'll see me everywhere

Whenever you see my shadow
Cast darkness on your heart
You're ready to hear the truth again
From the voices in the dark

Who's gonna swallow?
Who's gonna choke?
No one to follow
Lost in smoke

You won't miss it
You won't fight
What it comes down to
Not your night

9. Funeral Child

In the moonlight
Your curse arrives
You will pay tonight
Through the cracks in your skull

I can see you now
I'm in your bed
Raise the hammer now
And aim for your head

You're still alive

No!
Oh no!
What have I done?
No!
Oh please God no!
No!

Turn your face away
Don't look at me
Turn your face away
Lie silently

10. Crawling Off To Die

Crawling off to die
Crawling off to die
Crawling off to die
Crawling off to die
