TWELFTH GATE LYRICS

1. Mortal Coil


We are immortal, unstoppable force
Summoned by our maker
Powerless to intervene, hard to be indifferent
Focus on a mission

Are we falling?
Wrapped up in mortal coil

We never know until we go
Only do just what we're told
A spell of good to save a few
And work the clean up crew

Are we falling?
Wrapped up in mortal coil

Close to the beast, pass through the walls
Close at the scene, immortals meet
Dividing the spoils, with hearts of gold
Black in your soul, and passed over you
Picked from below

How can you separate the fear?
How can you not want vengeance
Can't wipe the tears

Farewell to the flesh, trumpets sound in triumph
The gates are gold as promised

Are we falling?
Wrapped up in mortal coil

Oh, we must fly; no time to break away
Bring 'em (to the gates)


2. Destre Brings


How can it be fair when the feeling is so strong?
With light regret we train and curb emotion
Will it ever change? Are the forces to remain?
Preventing us from full acceleration

No deal!
I won't give up, so turn me loose
I don't accept this failure

Plant your thoughts in someone else
There's nothing I can do for you
What's in our blood may not be in our soul
Desire brings the never ending thirst
Many planes of existence do we ride

No deal!
Souls are howling for us to join
It's not for me; I'll walk away

Desire brings the night to me
Desire brings the whole world
Desire brings the best and worst in me
Desire brings me home again

Summoned from the dead horizon
Lured to the valley of resignation
The force stays intact; integrity remains
I won't align, assume it's mine
Forbid the foraging of mental anguish

Desire brings the night to me
Desire brings the whole world
Desire brings the best and worst in me
To taste the nectar better late than never

How will it be sorted in the end?
Simple as closing our eyes?
Weighing the worthless deeds of our worth?
I ponder endless hoping for a clue
Something that brings me closer to the truth

Souls are calling to collect
Pulling in whose thirst is quenched
If the price is fair, then who's to judge?
Desire brings us never ending hope


3. Orpheus


Star in your time respected
You couldn't bring the past to life
Slipped through your hands again
Don't look back

And you mourn again
Who from us can feel your pain?
Sing a sweet song
To pass the day

Entrancing even the most harden
Convinced the highest ranking to do your bidding
Let us into the underworld to retrieve your only love
And defy the serpent's curse of death
The magic you possess

The different ways they said you died
I say you died of loneliness
Sad and alone
Sunrise to sunset

You touch a chord with me
Orpheus

A minstrel supreme, but a lonely human being
They never let you have it all in this world
Even you, with the magic of your song
Our lives are bitter sweet
The serpent's seen to that

Orpheus
You live in us all


4. Innocent


Your blood lust is your undoing
What makes you better men than them?
So protected; the best of everything
But those stains won't leave your shoes
The crumbling earth under your feet
Rumbling earth... protect the innocent

Making deep wounds
The loathing of you is so easy to do
Practice eternal hate
We don't cultivate, just give you the tools
Then watch it on TV

No one will stand and condemn
We'll keep it quiet because we're doing so good
But our future was sold
Has anyone noticed that the melting pot has boiled over?
Will someone lower the flame?

Innocent in the line of fire
Paid for by the stolen dollar
Innocent in the line of fire

You're guilty as sin
But the money keeps rolling in
Uneasy in my easy chair
I stare in disbelief

Oh will no one stand up, and stop this line of fire


5. Flames Of Anger


Cold blood, heartless
Boldly stole the shine of the sun
Flying devils
Once again to show their ugly heads

Wither away the thoughts we had
Fanning the flames
The fire rise

Towering rage through ire eyes
Cowardly evil
Rose the giant's night

Keep a watchful eye
From the roots the evil rise
It's a weed that never dies
Consumes the ones who will not defend

Proved to be the dark being
As I felt the breathing down my neck
Misguided angry fire in their eyes
We're here to extinguish the lies

Root out evil at its source
Root out evil's sorcery
It's a weed that never dies
Out of pain the anger rise
Draw the line

I understand the sadness in your eyes
When you brought me to the world
Having visited where evil flourished

Fanning the flames of our anger
Fanning the flames, turn them against you
Fanning the flames, turn them against you
Our toleration is our end

Catastrophe comes walking in
Fanning the flames, let's burn the lies
Root out evil at its source

It's a weed that never dies
Roots of evil


6. Waiting In Shadows


Hey now, got to try and relate
Mundane, the order of the day
Hey now, where's the will to thrill
Is this all for nothing?

Burn me out
Crashing now
Will the new day find the cured?

Burn me out
Ashes fall
Hard to be content with it all

Waiting in shadows
Happiness evading me
Longing forever
Waiting for the day

Don't wait for me to stroke your ideology
Same vision of a world we don't share
Simple joy may be the best medicine
The past is dead; it wasn't the future vision that we had

Maybe its not so bad having a hungry heart unfed
Is your collar better than mine?
It only looks better on the other side
Happiness is in the hunt they say

Waiting in shadows
Happiness evading me
Longing forever
Waiting for the day

Happiness is in the hunt they say
Still I try to do it the best way I can


7. Sugarcoated


Gloss over and disguise politically corrected lines
Not a matter of moral high ground

Say it like it is
Tell it like it is

Sugarcoated catchy lines
Makes it easy for you

It's hard to catch a spinning lie
But don't you think we ought to put it under a light
And watch the roaches scatter

Sugarcoated catchy lines
Makes it easy to do
But how will you feel when the term is out of style
And you're left all alone

Spin, and gloss, and twist away
The truth becomes a casualty
Selective conscious conditioning

They'll dance around the truth
Laughing all the way
Making up new moves
Take it to the bank

Say it like it is
Tell it like it is

Sugarcoated bleeding flesh
It's just your bait on a hook
What's casual about a casualty?
Explain this to me

Spin, and gloss, and twist away
The truth becomes a casualty

I have the right to choose what I want to say
For this I owe my gratitude
Thanks so much for having me

Softball censorship is way out of line
On the way, history revision
A matter of time, a matter of a crime

Take your bitter placebo to get you through your sugar-coated day


8. Wheel Of Life


Have you ever tried to understand?
Or followed with fear?
To greatly motivate, just to hesitate
But in your favor keep us, with purpose to guide

We've seen the picture wheel
Right before we pass through the light of love
And allowed another chance
Scarred in, scarred out
In the world you're all alone

Spinning, picture wheel we gaze upon
Spinning, characters in our life abound

Learn to live with hate
Or let it tear you up inside
Beyond the beauty lies
The beast we all despise

Made of fibs and fables
To this are you aligned?
The salvaging of time
Preservation of the mind

A taste of euphoria
Strong dose of reality
It's hardly worth...
You don't see the divine
Only the consequence of failure

Spinning
Say it, say it's meant to be
But I find it hard to see

Take it as a sign, not a trick of the mind
A vision clear, take another spin
Take another breath

Wheel of life
You're floating in your mind
Wheel of life
A warning to you this time

When you wake up from almost letting go
Third try, still in the game
We let you live and learn
But it makes no sense to me
A speck of dirt to a worm

The winners of the wheel get the chance to spin again
A lesson learned
Life is what you make it

Spinning, they say it's meant to be
Spinning, I find it hard to see
Spinning, they say it's meant to be


9. Bridge Of Uncertainty


You lost the color in your face
When I found you underground
Hanging with the dark crowd
The other side revealed

Hiding in evil's shadow with demons of desire
Is there no escape?
Is this who you want to be?
Come at least to the bridge of uncertainty

Two sides to everyone

And when the night yields to the dawn
We'll act like vampires who need the curtain drawn
And then we ask ourselves what have we become?
Which side will we take to the grave?
The other side?

Don't be the sacrifice, and lay across the ruins
Don't look upon its ugly face mirror back a past disgrace
Unveil the mystery; it's hideous, I know

Two sides of mystery

Will I hold your eyes again
In my eyes, we can never leave this place
Our destiny entwined

As we cross the bridge of uncertainty
You deliver me certainly
Our destiny entwined

Two sides
Together we cross to the other side


10. Malevolent Sky


Feeling alone tonight
The candle lights the way
Incense brings the spirits
Troubled heart will wave the calm
Fighting for position
Unseen to you

Just talking to the sky
Does anybody hear you?

It's going down tonight
They're nothing but amused
Watching a dancing flame
Seeing you drawn to it
Smell of burning wax
Cool breath and eerie vibes
Something's killed the flame

The light of your soul burns low
I think someone is listening

The night sky's awake from a heart that loses faith
Strange heaviness inside
Malevolent sky's awake
Breaking windows, shaking souls

The troubled heart loses faith
Coincidence of nature, anger, and your fear

Hell is full, and heaven's locked the gate
It only serves to provoke, and bring the swarm on you
Awaken malevolent sky

Will you believe?
The heaviness inside
Your very core's enslaved
Threw away your faith
Let darkness take its place
Still you won't believe

The sky has come to life
I think somebody's heard you

Hell is full, and heaven's locked the gate
It only serves to provoke, and bring the swarm on you
Awaken malevolent sky

Still you deny


11. Forgotten Names


This standing dream
I'm walking through the haze
Peaceful and amazed, I've given in
So much to do
I'm so far from through

The flower petals blow away
As I read these forgotten names
The cemetery bares their forgotten names
I had to turn away from their calls

Welcome death
Can you hear the silent screams?
I'm not the chosen one
I'm just a man who's wandering
Offering a prayer for a life to spare

Who will remember you?
And what were you like?
The cemetery bares their forgotten names
I had to run away from their screams

Forgotten names
I still see them in my sleep
They won't let me forget

They rule the night
So I'll take this flight

Drawn in by the fog
But now I'll head for the gate

Had to come to peace in my head
Or relive it every night

You and I are destined to be forgotten here
The spirit wind blows through the rows of forgotten souls
We'll carry on and on for you
Forever in memory

Welcome death
