MERCURY RISING LYRICS

1. Upon Deaf Ears


Blinded you shelter me from reality
Hanging on never wrong crucifying me
Altars smoke blackened through the years
Never washed by tears frozen there With my despair for your security
Once more the drama begins in passion play rivals don't win
Feel the weaker of the two where the skin is thin the pain shows through
The pain shows through Shadows once denied reveal anger and selfish pride
Your emotions on parade at my expense tedious charade
Awakened, as if I was never there in your greedy care
Out from hell Azrael calmly pulls my soul
Risen, from a sunken fate reanimate
Ancient vow helpless now stripped of its control control
I won't drink violence you demand Fool's message falls from nervous hands
Clearing skies give way (hear my suicide)
The spirit and the bride said come and I betrayed
The stone now rolled away (it took my will)
I found the miracle within tedious charades
[Solo: Dolliver]
[Solo: Goldsmith]


2. Light To Grow


Constantly I find myself searching for answers
Only to learn I didn't really want to know
But now and then upon a circumstance
There waits discovery enlightenment we all need light to grow
Walking empty streets at night silhouette in moonlight
Petitioning revelation to bring life's frustration down
Discovery revelation
Enlightenment to end frustration
Suddenly I seem so small in my surroundings
An iota of something so much more
Eons will erase a man no matter what his victories
Light breaks through a newly opened door
To realize I'm just a man helpless in a master plan
Knowledge an open door
Infinity a slave no more
Discovery I must know
Offer me light to grow
Supply me the power to make it so
Supply me with light to grow
Out from life's undertow
Nourish me with light to grow
Possibilities expanding all around me
Even in the depths of my despair
Fight to gain dominion over feelings that surround me
Enter reality they vanish in thin air
Constantly I find myself searching for answers
Only to learn I didn't really want to know
But now and then upon a circumstance
There waits discovery enlightenment we all need light to grow


3. Halfway To Forever


Before the ancient cultures the first birth of a sun
Through decades generations and eons yet to come
In a time when there was nothing there still existed time
And when the human race is done it will leave us all behind
The days we judge by hours the years we judge by days
But looking at eternity there's so many different ways
To some it means religion to some just an idea
Some men can't see past today but to me it's coming clear
[Chorus:]
Alpha and omega except for eternity
What you thought unreal has finally come to be
Never say never because you might have to see
Halfway to forever is where we will always be
When you think in terms of what's to come and what has gone before
Are you bound by your own lifetime or is there something more
The only guarantee in life is a lifetime guarantee
All the world's a stage an when the show's done we'll still be....
Just a tiny atom in a never ending sea
The most a single life could ever be
And when this world is gone for the worse or for the better
We'll still be only halfway to forever
[Solo: Dolliver]
[Solo: Goldsmith]
With a dream of immortality each man completes his tasks
To conquer what is infinite he knows not what he asks
To step across the border that defines the age of man
Yet that is just a tiny grid in an endless master plan


4. Minute Man


Look in the glass at the universal ice
Through it I pass at the speed of light
I walk the decades ten at a step or make the moment freeze in my grip
I breathe the centuries
I bend your destinies
I bind reality
I am galactic energy
I sing the song of Saturn's rings
I tightwalk on cosmic strings
I wrote the music Venus sings
I handed Mercury his wings
I am the reason seasons turn and why the lakes in hell still burn
I am forever...
I am the minute man
[Solo: Dolliver]
[Solo: Goldsmith]
I build the empires
I appoint the lords
I set the standards
I swing the swords
I paint the shadows behind the doors
I chose the heroes
I pay the whores
I bare within my mind treasures you'll never find
I govern space and time
I watch the world through ancient eyes I sing the song of Saturn's rings
I tightwalk on cosmic strings
I wrote the music venus signs
I handed Mercury his wings
And I'm the reason seasons turn and why the lakes in hell still burns
I am forever...
I am the minute man


5. Zeros And Ones


Coincide
Subdivide, technical wars
Formulate
Calculate industries whores
Little faults in the system
Always reducing men to their ranks in a time of no choosing
Balance is gone assiduity
Resplendent drone deranged machine
See what I mean
Monochrome skies paint future scenes of a corporate scheme
Graft display turn away the poor and the weak
Always there they don't care bow down at their feet
Sinews of war and all the redemption go up in smoke
There's been no reflection grinding their gears a prosaic aim
So when you look what do you see vulgarity
Monochrome skies paint future scenes of a corporate scheme
Hidden orbs focus in on me impart neuroticy
To a liquid mind all they find is a piece of time
Confounding what's left of me Modern medicine a form of strategy
Designed to ensure our purity
Endeavor for immortality
Zeros and ones defining me
Dollar signs are everywhere
Incorporated stare a lighthouse for the blind
Meiropol is standing by to quench the truthful lie
Computer serving mind
Silent loudness now speaks to me imprinted echoes ring endlessly
Emotion stripped down to the core
An impulse nothing more inside our empty selves
Sex is sterile now alone now anyone can own a piece of someone else
Predictability is comforting
Vapid gray this future seen
[Solo: Goldsmith]
Zeros and ones are all that we are
Sins of the thinking machine have brought us this far
Human error replaced by efficiency
A permanent program raping mortality
When man is reduced to a number sums and equations defined
Replaced by zeros and ones he'll be left behind
[Solo: Dolliver]


6. It's War


In secret rooms with whispered words they spoke of changes
A new world order free of fault to span the ages
A perfect plan in a perfect world the perfect fantasy
And I know that next that it's me
An unfinished fight is a thief in the night
That returns to tear out your heart
Ashes to ashes dust to dust enemy armor left to rust
One strike is all that it takes One strike an enemy makes
One strike bringer of changes suffer the pain cause it's war
An upper echelon power grip money's talking
In the streets it has turned its back a nightmare stalking
The scales of justice work for some and let the rest go free
As the blood runs through your hands I know that next it's me
One strike is all that it takes
One strike an enemy makes
One strike bringer of changes suffer the pain cause it's war
[Solo: Dolliver]
[Solo: Goldsmith]
In churches built for worship the altars are empty
To finance a minority rule the offerings are plenty
A perfect plan in a perfect world perfect hipocrisy
And I know next that it's me
One strike is all that it takes
One strike an enemy makes
One strike bringer of changes suffer the pain cause it's war


7. Prayer


Endless is the road I walk merciless is time
Frustrations black and white contentment less defined
Bravery through confidence humility with pride I can face tomorrow if supplied
This course was set at your decree surely you must have a plan for me
This prayer I give to you tonight Lead and direct me with your guiding light
Instill me with the power to smile even as
I push myself to walk the extra mile
Fuel me with desire like phoenix to rise from a fire
I offer up but what I am another lost and lonely lamb


8. Where Fear Ends


I've felt the deadly grip of compromise
And fought to keep conviction burning in my eyes
Surrender perseverance doesn't recognize
And with the light of each new day I'll find my way
Beneath the pulsing beat of neon heat and city streets
Or on a mountain side under moonlit sky with stars on high
The answer lies not so much in where you are
But destination and what you'll find
Into the fire some would throw their lives
And hope that with security and fear subsides
Dreams and ambitions they would choose to hide
A disregarded spirit leaves them empty inside
Inside of every man a master plan the high command
Truth to one's self is shelter from the storm and keeps the sin unborn
The greatest truth I've ever known has been where truth begins where fear ends
How sad a man could lose his destiny to the powers that be in this world
For just outside this lifetime is a higher call stand or fall
Victory is more than just security
Affluency has no jurisdiction over death
Victorious the man who stands his ground and won't go down
But offers to the cause his every breath
I've felt the deadly grip of compromise
And fought to keep conviction burning in my eyes
Surrender perserverence doesn't recognize
And with the light of each new day
I'll find my way
I've seen the empty eyes, believing lies hypnotized
I stand uncompromised and await the new sunrise
The greatest truth
I've ever known has been where truth begins is where fear ends
Victory is more than just security
Affluency has no jurisdiction over death
Victorious the man who stands his ground and won't go down
But offers to the cause his every breath
