SEVENTH WONDER LYRICS

1. Arrival


[Instrumental]



2. The Everones


Descending through the bleeding skyline
All draped in angel white
United nations made of fallen men
Come witness who we are
In times of human absolution
Deceiving chaos and confusion
It's time to wipe it clean

One chance to live
Your choice to die
In a perfect state of denial
You destroy and defile
This is the end

We've watched you since the dawn of time
And with every moment gone by
A million suns fade and die
This is the end

Forever and a day we're watching
Exalted ancient halls
Rarely intervening but today
It's time to show you what you are

And for your wicked contribution
There can be only one solution
Now take your final bow

One chance to live
Your choice to die
In a perfect state of denial
You destroy and defile
This is the end

We've watched you since the dawn of time
And with every moment gone by
A million suns fade and die
This is the end


3. Dream Machines


What is this reaction
From the dark side of the moon?
Who are they to challenge
A society in bloom?
Will they start a fire
And delete us from the world?
What is this reaction?

Can you feel it go boom,
Breaking out of your chest?
This hour is not our time to die
Can you hear it beating under your skin?
Our past is like a map of where we've never been

We keep pumping like machines
We are the immortals
We go up, up, up and we're living the dream
We're the immortal men, we're dream machines
Interaction of the very last degree
And no matter what they say
This is our legacy

All across the nations
Living loud and living free
Dire accusations
Of your inner enemy
You bring allegations
That don't apply to me
Just to start the fire

Oh can you see, can you see our future now?
I can't believe this rejection
I can't accept that our end has come...
What caused this complete confusion?
I never knew anything we couldn't fight
And I don't see our imperfections
I just believe if we can live through this
We'll stop future mass intrusions

Can we win this war?
To send them flying off our dying shores

Interaction of the very last degree
But no matter what they say
We salute our legacy
We didn't come this far to fail,
No, humanity will prevail


4. Against The Grain


Stop pretending like you know it all!
From the top of my lungs I'm begging you all,
Please stop!
Because even though I am just a child,

Still I see this isn't real
A computer could never love,
A machine could never feel
Live a life, or live a dream?

One girl against them all,
Just one to break the mold
And one voice you could hear a needle fall

Like an island lost in a stream
It's a nightmare that you call a dream
'Cause you were raised to be honest
Now look at yourself,
Can you righteously stand to defend your truth?

From a slumber the world awoke
From the top of her lungs
With tears in her eyes she spoke
'Cause that was all she knew how to

Words of fire stay cold
Does it matter if you win the world
If to win you've lost your soul?
Live a life or live a dream

One girl against them all,
Just one to break the mold
And one voice you could hear a needle fall

Like an island lost in a stream
It's a nightmare that you call a dream
'Cause you were raised to be honest
Now look at you defending your ways, your choice, your truth?

When our vision was blurred, and our hearts lead astray
She opened our eyes for us
We must gather the greatest of minds we can find
There must be a way to survive

One girl against them all,
Lo and behold

Like an island lost in a stream
It's a nightmare that you call a dream
'Cause you were raised to be honest
Now look at you defending your ways, your choice, your truth?


5. Victorious


One man to sail the oceans,
One man to leave the ground behind
Deep down we strive to be more than we are
Tamed the fire and the world was ours

We build it up, reaching for the heavens
A pile of stone to stand the test of time
We brought light to shame the sun
And we always found a way

And I don't care if you don't care
Because our dreams have always taken us where
Amazing fantasies become today's realities

We will be victorious
In the blink of an eye we ascend to the sky
We'll be glorious, victorious we rise
'Cause we're gonna be and won't stop 'til we are victorious

One man to split the atom,
One man to tread another world
Inside we know that we have what it takes
Faster, stronger, higher than before

The spoken word, the ink on paper
Astounding beauty for the eyes and ears
All this, when we stand together
When we stand as one

I don't care if you don't care
Because our dreams have always taken us where
Amazing fantasies become today's realities

We will be victorious
In the blink of an eye we ascend to the sky
We'll be glorious, victorious and somehow
We'll rise to the challenge

But fading are our smiles
Confidence is fleeting
Embrace this plight, and yield before the fire
Understand, this time we cannot make it alone
Our failure is forever
Through the wind and rain
Pushing through the masses
Went against the grain
As she opened up our eyes for us to see
Crying out, an angel to reveal her mystery
A savior in the dark,
I know she can sway their minds
I promise, she will never let us down,
Of course she will defend our way of life

Here we stand before the world
The solution is simple, the answer is her!
We'll send one of us, for all of us
And the truth in her voice will be heard

We will be victorious
In the blink of an eye she'll be sent to the sky
We'll be glorious, victorious we rise
Yes we're gonna be victorious!


6. Farewell (Part 1: Tiara's Song)


Did you hear what they said?
Is it true, there's a way out?
I put my trust in her
Like a true believer
And with the truth in her heart
She's the one, our last defense
Her innocence will make the Everones believe her

And even if the girl returns unharmed
I don't want you to be alarmed
Even if she did, we'd still feel your fear
And even if our hearts keep beating like machines
Believe me, we still feel your pain

(This is farewell)
Farewell, Tiara, this song is yours
From Sahara to the seven seas it soars
A million voices stand and sing this chorus
Oh, Tiara, saviour of our dying shores

Tonight is the night
We celebrate a new beginning
Brother, raise your glass
So, Tiara, our one and only hope
Here's to you

Prepare for the worst
Wish for the best
Will she do it?
Leave it all behind for the stranger and the liar
And I just can't see
For the life of me
What inhumanity
Could make the Everones deny her

If your daughter would commit and not fulfill
I'm not saying she will but still
Even if she did we'd still feel your fear
And even if our hearts keep beating like a drum
Believe me, we still feel your pain
(We still feel your pain)

(This is farewell)
Farewell, Tiara, this song is yours
From Sahara to the seven seas it soars
A million voices stand and sing this chorus
Oh, Tiara, saviour of our dying shores

Tonight is the night
We celebrate a new beginning
Brother, raise your glass
For Tiara, our one and only hope
Because of you

We will be victorious, victorious we rise
Glorious, victorious
We stand to win this fight
You will be victorious
Victorious we rise
Glorious, victorious
We stand to win this fight

With you, Tiara, we crown the skies
Unlike Aniara you won't fly to your demise
And we'll come home
And welcome home when you have won this war
From the valleys to the mountains it will roar

(This is farewell)
Farewell, Tiara, this song is yours
From Sahara to the seven seas it soars
A million voices stand and sing this chorus
Oh, Tiara, saviour of our dying shores!

Tonight is the night
We celebrate a new beginning
Brother, raise your glass
So, Tiara, our one and only hope
Here's to you


7. Farewell (Part 2: Goodnight)


When I grew up there was
Not a single thing
That would make me feel whole
Then you arrived
Seven pounds of beautiful
And I knew that there was love in this world

But now I break and I cave. I crumble inside,
But I won't let it show in my voice
Because what kind of life would this be
If you're not here with me?
How could I ever live without you?

So goodnight but not goodbye
Close your eyes and learn to fly
You can if you try
Be the bravest astronaut the world has ever seen
Now take off
Into a dream…

I always thought I would
Walk you down the aisle
I see my life there inside your eyes
And I'd always be there to catch you when you fall
I can't bear that I have to let go

And so I break and I cave. I crumble inside
But I won't left it show in my face
Because the tomorrow I see,
Without you here with me,
Is a future where I don't want to be

So goodnight this is not goodbye
Close your eyes and learn to fly...


8. Farewell (Part 3: Beyond Today)


I can hear them through the windows singing out my name
They all laugh and sound so happy. Why so happy? I don't know
If I fail, if I don't make it, will their song remain the same?
Or will the echoes fade to make these streets all silence once again?

They say I'm the one, but what if I'm not the one
Who can save us from the end of the word?
Even though I must go, it's important to know,
I am scared but I won't let it show
What if I, if I'll never do what I did in my
Dreams so many times, I wonder will I ever say

Hey, if you tell me yours, I'll tell you mine
A perfect stranger in a ticket line
Just like in the movies, will he put his hand in mine?
And will I ever dance prom night away,
And throw my hat up high on graduation day
I think it's safe to say the best is yet to come
There somewhere beyond today

I can hear her in the kitchen, crying out my name
And how it breaks her heart, this brand-new start
Will tear all she knows apart
I can hear him in the hallway falling to his knees
And the always strong and silent one is not silent anymore

They say I'm the one, but what if I'm not the one
Who can save us at the edge of the word?
Even though I must go, it's important to know, but…

...if you tell me yours, I'll tell you mine
A perfect stranger in a ticket line
Just like in the movies, will he put his hand in mine?
And will I ever dance prom night away,
And throw my hat up high on graduation day
I think it's safe to say the best is yet to come

Will someone ask my dad for his daughter's hand?
To make her princess of the promised land
Just like in the movies, will I feel those butterflies?
Will I grow up to make my mother proud?
Despite my rebel years when I was way too loud
I think it's safe to say the best is yet to come
There somewhere beyond today
There somewhere beyond today


9. The Truth


With the weight of our world on my back
I am travelling far off the beaten track
And whenever I'm homesick and
I wonder if I am brave enough
I remind myself that I have to stay tough

I'm getting closer as I'm further away
I was chosen to plead for another day
Yes I was the one to make them notice,
And the one to make them see
I don't understand why it had to be me

Yet here I stand
In a faraway land
Not knowing if I'll ever see them again
I bring a symbol of peace
I just hope they will take it off my hands
Now I stand at the gates, let me in

In these eternal sacred halls
It's decided who lives and who falls
Never before have we faltered,
Unmarred our truth
Yet here you stand
Young child
So speak

I speak before you today
I can't say what they want me to say
Because I was raised to be honest and true to myself
These are my words
My choice
My truth


10. By The Light Of The Funeral Pyres


Revelation, castigation
Raining sinful shadows screaming, down from above
Pending death on the horizon
Today betrayal damned us all

I don't care what they say,
My darling Tiara returned from the skies today
But forever is fading away, hear them…

Fight, fight for your life
A kingdom's burning
Run, run chaos arise
By the light of the funeral pyres
Mourning tears from the masses,
Drowning the sound of the sorrows that paint the night

As we're dying, as we're trying
Primal instincts taking over us like a drug
Now that nothing really matters
And nothing more is left to lose

Dry your tears honey, do
For the moment with you, I would trade all the moments I knew
Don't cry little one, here they come -hear them

Fight, fight for your life
A kingdom's burning
Run, run chaos arise
By the light of the funeral pyres
Mourning tears from the masses,
Drowning the sound of the horrors that paint the night

Can you hear them fight, fight for your life
A kingdom's burning
Run, run chaos arise
By the light of the funeral pyres
Mourning tears from the masses,
As her song will echo no more


11. Damnation Below


We behold the world and forever
Gauging good and evil in the afterlife
Would you reconcile and turn away
Or would you bite the bullet, bleed for what is right?

A step through space and time for this is the hour
No tears left to wipe in the aftermath
We bring an end to fallen men and empires
For the greater good of all, with somber minds we let the hammer fall

With the weight of her own world upon her back she came alone
Not knowing if she'd ever come back home
She was sent away far off the beaten track, sent to atone
Not only did she do it, no she did it on her own

One final stare into the barrel of a gun
This is the end
Once again the bleeding skyline torn asunder
Damnation below the suns
Behold the everones

We acknowledge that a girl lit a fire
Single candle in a sea of black
Could it be the flower piercing the mire?
There was truth in her worlds, could there still be hope for planet earth?

Because she was sent away far off the beaten track, sent to atone
Not only did she do it, no she did it on her own

One final stare into the barrel of a gun
This is the end
Once again the bleeding skyline torn asunder
Damnation below the suns
Behold the harm you've done


12. Procession


Now that the smoke has cleared, we see
How we carry on sins on our sleeves

By our hands made eternal
We sealed our fate

Just to see
Her truth
Too late


13. Exhale


No deliverance!

Now we land in smoke and ruins
Surrendering, the people arrive, giving in
In the light of understanding
Lies another chance to make it right

When the wind roars in your face you know
It's the storm before the calm
Because darkness is blinding right before the dawn

As you rise from the ashes remember tomorrow
We're taking off to the skies
Awoken remorse saw the firelight fade in her eyes
In the unselfish sacrifice true redemption lies
And the world exhaled

Here we stand in broken ruins
A people lost without anything left to lose
All we need to keep believe
Is a hand there in the cold dark night

When the wind roars in your face you know
It's the storm before the calm
Because darkness will blind you right before the dawn

Brother tell me I'm mad… but did her hand just move
Sister, did you see it too?
I would trade my last heartbeat for that to be the truth

As you rise from the ashes remember tomorrow
We're taking off to the skies
Awoken remorse saw the firelight fade in her eyes
In the unselfish sacrifice true redemption lies

...and the world exhaled
