SILENT FORCE LYRICS

1. Man & Machine

When I'm driving down the road
I want to feel the speed
I push my machine to the max,
This is what I need
My fingers gripping, grip so tight,
My foot is to the floor
My blood is racing through my veins,
This is my reward

Test my fate by living on the edge (on the edge)
And if I die I die just like so many others

[Chorus]
Man and machine -
I can't hide my need for speed, I'm the man
Man and machine -
And I'll try fast as can be

My heart is beating with such might
I feel it might explode
Throwing caution to the wind
It flattens down the road
The sirens screaming, scream so loud,
I laugh and sing along
The engine makes a noise so sweet,
As sweet as any sound

I feel my hair is standing on its edge (on its edge)
I lose control just around the bend

[Chorus]

Tires squealing, ripping metal,
It's over in seconds,
It was so orchestral
My body now is beaten and battered,
As fast as it could be
Was all that had mattered

[Solo]

Man and machine -
I can't hide my need for speed, I'm the man
Man and machine -
If I die don't cry for me, I'm the man
Man and machine -
Oh, we're as one, man and machine

Man and machine...

2. Walk The Earth

If somehow I find the words
Saying what I feel inside right now
It's quiet, no sound
My voice seems to become silent somehow

If we're alone and then you ask me
Am I honest with myself I'll tell you "no"
Do you believe in ever after?
I struggle with the answers I can't show

If I look into the mirror I have to turn away
I fool the disconnected
I'm the man I cannot face
I've lived amongst expansion
Under no uncertain terms
It's finally catching me somehow
Oh will I ever learn

And now it seems my days are numbered
My fate is closing in on me I know
Do you think that I am shallow?
Will I kneel before the beast that lies below

[Chorus]
I walk the earth,
Image of my world
Come feel the noise,
It's through a voice unheard
I walk the earth
I've fallen far from grace
Come feel the noise,
My shell's an empty space
I walk the earth

Oh, hanging on the balance,
It's the path that I have led
Keeps them all believing
This is know that I have said
Uncertain is the outcome,
It appears it's not all lost
This is what I've chosen
Most of the time it plays out wrong

If we're alone that's when I'll ask you
Are you honest with yourself you'll tell me "no"
And you believe in ever after
I know the answer now just say it's so

[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Chorus]

I walk the earth...

3. Point Of No Return

4. In From The Dark

A place there was light
A place that was free from the dark
A place that would show; all that was hidden in time
An idea so real an idea of what to say
Idea thats placing us all in the path from which we are stray

[PRE CHORUS]
We cannot be what we are with no one to tell us how
We cannot be what we are with no one to tell us where we are.
Oh tell us where we are

[CHORUS]
In from the dark in from the cold outside in from the dark ill step into the light
In from the dark!

[VERSE]
A new day is breaking
The hazing that lives on the street
This is my chance to end a chance to end all the tears that I weep
Have I forgotten? forgotten to tell it again
As I was watching myself from the mirror of defeat I got lost in the head

[PRE CHORUS]
In from the dark in from the cold outside in from the dark ill step into the light
In from the dark!

[CHORUS]
In from the dark in from the cold outside
In from the dark I'll step into the light
In from the dark!

[SOLO]

[CHORUS]
In from the dark in from the cold outside
In from the dark I'll step into the light

In from the dark in from the cold outside
In from the dark I'll step into the light

In from the dark
(in from dark!)
In from the cold outside
(in from the cold!)
In from the dark I'll step into the light
(step into the light, into the light!)

5. The King Of Fools

It happens to the best,
This he cannot change
But most of all was
His intentions weren't that strange
He says he's only human, no one ever knows
It's what he means to say
At night before he starts the show

He can't change his past, no one ever can
Tomorrow no one knows his name
He thinks he is the man

[Chorus:]
He's the king of fools
The master of one
As he stands there all alone
He's the king of fools
The master of one
He's not a man of virtue,
He's not a man at all

He sets a bad example
Does he think he's right?
Trying to escape his past
He isn't worth the fight
The devil made him do it!
This is what he says
Always doing stupid things
Is how he makes his way

He can't change his past, no one ever can
Tomorrow no one knows his name
He thinks he is the man

[Chorus]

He can't wait, he's in a fog
His mind is almost gone, is he afraid?
Oh, does he know just what it is that's wrong

[Chorus]

6. The Child Within

7. Goodbye My Ghost

8. Save Me From Myself

I'm talking to myself at times the words aren't clear
Another voice will say to me what I wish not to fear
That's why I try to make believe, the future no mistakes
The edge of burning wasted fire, the warmth there is no trace

How did it finally come to this?
How did I wish us figure of shadows?
I've opened the door to show a secret deep within

Someone save me from myself
Someone save me from the darkness that's within
Someone save me from myself
And with the darkness so profound, will I survive?

This is the fight I wish would end
I know it's up to me
And finally I would be content
The changes no more I would see
This is the man that I would be
Forever till the end
Why am I digging in so deep?
Will I ever be my own friend?

Why did it finally come to this?
Why did I wish us figure of shadows?
I've opened the door to show a secret deep within

Someone save me from myself
Someone save me from the darkness that's within
Someone save me from myself
And with the darkness so profound, will I survive?

I feel my days are numbers
It is a number you can't change
When is my day of reckoning?
You have to wait like all the rest
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
You are the one they always blame
How can I save my dignity?
Someone to save me from myself

Someone save me from myself
Someone save me from the darkness that's within
Someone save me from myself
And with the darkness so profound, will I survive?

Will I survive?

9. My Independence Day

10. Blind Leading The Blind

He sees the two in the corner, not easy to explain
What the other is thinking, you know it's always in vein

Don't you know that when the other wrong
Someone always tells them so

And that it doesn't matter
What they're trying to say

The blind leading the blind
No wonder nothing else gets done
They're in each other's way

They always seem to be leaders a political mess
When all the votes have been counted
Oh, there's one that's thumping his chest

Don't you know the winner walks away
The loser somehow gets to play

The blind leading the blind
No wonder nothing else gets done
They're in each other's way
The blind leading the blind
It's a reason there's so many dead
They're dying everyday

We all stand here, opinions in our minds
They're tying up our hands and cover up our eyes
We shake our heads dismayed when they play that song
Then they drape the flag upon the caskets when they fall

It's no wonder nothing else gets done
They're in each other's
In each other's way!

11. Running Through The Fire

I find that all it takes,
A strike to start the fire,
I find that all it takes is just a strike to start the fire
I stand there mesmerized,
Right before his eyes
I stand there mesmerized by all the beauty and the death,
Beauty and the death

[Chorus:]
We are running through the fire
As it's lighting up the sky
We are running through the fire
Please don't ask me why

If I died within,
Within your arms
If I died within your arms
I don't think I would care
Oh, will I wait until,
Until the ash on earth
Will I wait until the ash on earth
Will crush my stare, my stare...

[Chorus]

Side by side we fight till the end
An alliance we have to defend
Side by side we fight till the end
An alliance we have to defend

[Chorus]

12. Picture Of A Shadow
