QUEENSRYCHE LYRICS

1. Arrow Of Time


[Wilton, Jackson, La Torre]

What will you do when its right upon you like a ring of fire
Why ask why no need to justify who really cares anyway
Ethical tragedy rabid humanity learn from the past so they say

Now is the time to make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight you can’t run, you can’t run from yourself

One reason to survive with a thousand ways to die when you’re living on the wire
Reaching the threshold near system overload caught on the red eye again

Now is the time to make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight you can’t run, you can’t run from yourself

Close your eyes, and hear the voices in your head
Grand disguise this mass confusion revered illusion

Some grid the mast on their final descent into the darkness below
Other will fight, kick and crawl their way out, there is no heaven below

Now is the time to make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight you can’t run, you can’t run from yourself

(FIGHT) You can’t run
(FIGHT) From the arrow of time


2. Guardian


[Wilton, Rockenfield, La Torre]

Man down into the darkness they hunt you tracking blood upon the streets
Security is breached political elite who’s the savior when the martyr knows your name

GUARDIAN

Pixels of light infrared from the sight that shed upon you
Facing the enemy fascist supremacy fight to live another day

It’s time to rise up, united, we stand divided we fall, evolution calling

Insurrection this time were playing for keeps
Arming police like the military its obscene and they’re stalking the streets


It’s time to rise up, united, we stand divided we fall, evolution calling

Torn inside we’ve fallen to another side
Are we so cold and out of love
Keep on trying hold the child
Faces crying changing times

It’s time to rise up, united, we stand divided we fall, evolution calling


3. Hellfire


[Wilton, La Torre]

Lock down what do we make of this madness it’s a world gone mad
Shot down identity unknown mistaken for the enemy
Artillery placed in the hands of a few psychosomatic rebellion
Collateral damage here comes the shrapnel again piercing screams in my head

Blackened shattered remains a season of change
Anger and fear fuel the fire

Blinded blind to the eyes of the world under a jaded sky
Rapture heaven of hellfire we are fractured again
Silenced from the underground
Robbing the blind and steal from the dead

Blackened shattered remains a season of change
Anger and fear fuel the fire
Hellfire

Blackened shattered remains a season of change
Anger and fear fuel the fire
Tragic, loss and despair no rhyme or reason
Blackened shattered remains black are the souls that tear down humanity
What will you do when they come for you
They’re closing in, they’re coming, fight for your life


4. Toxic Remedy


[Wilton, Rockenfield, La Torre]

What symbol would you choose to decorate your final breath
You contemplate then choose the misery that serves you best
It’s too late to realize you can’t dismiss your past

So look around the time is now it’s time to beware
A liquid toxic remedy it’s time to beware time to beware

Every breath you take might be the last you’ll get
Looking back do you see sad eyes like who you are drowning in regret

Look around the time is now it’s time to beware
A liquid toxic remedy it’s time to beware

Melting faces upside down confinement is your friend
Solitude that's ever found forgive me father I live in sin

It’s too late to realize you can’t dismiss your past
So look around the time is now it’s time to beware
A liquid toxic remedy it’s time to beware


5. Selfish Lives


[Wilton, Rockenfield, La Torre]

Silence what’s that you speak reform the rights til they’re tired and weak
Suppress the information
Confine the skeptics segregation
Strangers passing by tunnel vision under the eye in the sky
Who do you trust it’s on the currency man
What is so hard don’t you understand

Selfish lives gone are the days of familiar smiles
Will we ever find our way

Do you wanna be a slave to the system full metal jacket the only position
Pick em of as easy as one, two, three
Time to amend the ideology

Selfish lives gone are the days of familiar smiles
Will we ever find our way
Selfish times a parasite of the satellites
Are we better of today

What’s your wavelength it is not a hard drive
Come to life inside yourself now

Selfish lives gone are the days of familiar smiles
Will we ever find our way
Selfish times a parasite of the satellites


6. Eye9


[Jackson]

Running out of time nowhere to go
I’ve been searching blind through these hollow walls

Escape these boundaries hanging by a thread
Breathe through the cracks of this tunnel you’ll find appeared to be here all along

Lost in the labyrinth of life stuck in the middle of the truth
Crawl through the walls of this passage you’ll find the state of your mind

There’s nothing left there’s nothing left for you where am I

Thumbing through these pages patterns shifting slowly moving
This consecrated ground that I stand a misunderstanding a misunderstanding

Lost in the labyrinth of life stuck in the middle of the truth
Crawl through the walls of this passage you’ll find the state of your mind

Running out of time

Lost in the labyrinth of life stuck in the middle of the truth
Crawl through the walls of this passage you’ll find the state of your mind

There’s nothing left
Eye nine


7. Bulletproof


[Rockenfield, Lundgren, Jackson, La Torre]

How many times must we try
Lost in the gaze of your watering eyes
How many times have we questioned all we’ve ever known
I stood right by your side but my love was not enough

Now you’re aiming there’s no use in waiting
You know the triggers right in front of you so pull it out now and make a move I’m bulletproof

The cleanse of surrender has freed me no longer victim of change
With secrets inside the cosmos is watching your every move
I’m still in your sights mo matter how much I try

Now you’re aiming there’s no use in waiting
You know the triggers right in front of you so pull it out now and make a move I’m bulletproof
As day bleeds to night I’m still in your sight
You know the triggers right in front of you so pull it out now and make a move I’m bulletproof

Now you’re aiming there’s no use in waiting
You know the triggers right in front of you so pull it out now and make a move I’m bulletproof

And now who’s to blame life is give and take
Searching for that special break
Only finding it was never there


8. Hourglass


[Wilton, Rockenfield, La Torre]

The metronome of rain on the rooftop
Velvet draped across the floor
Was a time when we measured but never up to our fathers
The sorrow cuts and as I stare at the blade you’ve reached the dark we fear

Locked stitches in time nothing can break apart our seams
You were humble and kind pondering times as I sit in a shrine never meant to be

Rebuilding a passion that never saw a highway
How many more miles would you bare my friend
Like a jab to the throat surrealism silenced the voice but what is left to say
And all I can think is thank you for your time as I reflect with pain

Locked stitches in time nothing can break apart our seams
You were humble and kind pondering times as I sit in a shrine never meant to be

Spiraling the hourglass

You have loved you have seen through the darkest nights that steal your dreams
You have gone slipped away
Only time will help to ease the pain

Spiraling the hourglass


9. Just Us


[Wilton, La Torre]

What could I say to you there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
We’ve travelled so far now it’s just us once again
Pictures appeared from the dark
Of days long ago when we made a start
Like a gift to a stranger bring a smile to the face
You’re my solitude my serenity with an angels face
Hearing the sound of a cry peacefully sleep to a lullaby

A silent movie scene a capsule in time
The days when we were young all we had was time
We’ll ride this train all the way to the heavens
Just you and me hand in hand
My mothers voice calling out to me from the other side patiently
Slip inside my dream carry me away

Time goes by no matter what you say or do I still love you
Time goes by but with you now the days get longer

Reflections of time they’re yours and mine
The things that used to be still remains so fine
Is the face of a child your calm embrace
You’re my shining star of the darkest nights a saving grace
Seeing the sings of the times forever is now there’s no rewind

Slip inside my dream carry me away
Time goes by no matter what you say or do I still love you
Time goes by but with you now the days get longer


10. All There Was


[Rockenfield, Lundgren, La Torre]

I I am the one that’s been keeping you alive
Who am I to even try caught in the middle again
Sacrifice I give and I give and you take
Paid the price needles to say it was never enough

Lift lifting the veil revealing the mask in disguise
For you are the star no one can see a comical tragedy

Sacrifice I give and I give and you take
Paid the price needles to say it was never enough

With hope I’ll find a way
No turning back it’s to late
With love and hope you can find a way
Time will reveal who’s left and who’s dying alone


11. The Aftermath


[Queensrÿche]

The clock on the wall the only face of truth
Stoke the fire, hide what remains
No more lies a crime of passion
Bloodstained smiles the violence now silence alas
Muffled cries resemble once moans of lust


12. Condition Hüman


[Wilton, Jackson, Lundgren, La Torre]

Do we ever stop and wonder whats around us
Do we take for granted what some may dream to have
Broken words of yesterday feels like I'm standing still
Promises don't mean a thing like a hunt without the kill

Do we ever take the time to see what comes and what goes by
Do we ever stop to see just who we'll leave behind who are you leaving behind
Broken words of yesterday feels like I'm standing still
Promises don't mean a thing like a hunt without the kill

As the wise man waits the widow prays searching remnants of yesterday
and the shadow cry when darkness fades we try to understand under moonlit skies

Welcome to a generation divided unity of man
Disconnected circuitry pull the trigger on demand
No remorse they have no sense of apathy
Critical mass on it's way who is searching for the truth
Desensitize the innocence quick to medicate the youth

As the wise man waits the widow prays searching remnants of yesterday
and the shadow cry when darkness fades we try to understand under moonlit skies

A chapade in broken frames gather pieces from the past
shape the species over time moralities collapse
Millennia of holy wars suppress the meek and mild
Profits of the corporate whores who will teach the child
Illusions cast in complex forms death creates new life
No reception tonight

Welcome to a generation
We are all condition hüman
No remorse they have no sense of apathy
