Outside In (2006)

Well since I met you
You haven't called me
I can't forget you
But you don't want me

You've got me pacin'
My heart is racin'
You really turned me
Outside In

My head is spinnin'
What can I do
So stop your grinnin'
What do I mean to you

Take me by the hand
Tell me I'm the one for you
Look me in the eyes
Show me what your love can do

(chorus x 4 )
Inside out
Outside In

Lady Liberty / United (May 2007)

Take heed Lady Liberty

And straighten up your crown

Can't you see the torch is

Quickly burning down

The Middle Eastern world is

Gathered in black mass

Holding us hostage with the oil we use for gas

Radical factions demanding

Holy War

Where are the truths we held

So strongly once before

The people ache for mercy crying

Help us please

But we will never stand

Until we get down on our knee's

Our Middle Western values tipping

On the scale

When will we learn to trust

The one that can not fail

(Chorus )

Unite

United

We stand

Unite

United

As one

Across the land

The Metal Drone (June 10 2006)

Impervious to pain

Twisted metal brain

Deflecting speeding bullets

Off his alloy frame

Liquid crystal eyes

Cut men down to size

With a turn of the head

Leaving them for dead

(Chorus )

Nothing can stand in the path, of Metal Drone

His eyes are filled with wrath, the Metal Drone

A monotone call

Seizes one and all

Paralyzed with fear

At the sounding of him near

Laser burning beams

Penetrate the screams

Armies retreat

Know one can defeat...

(Chorus)

Up From The Water ( 3-06-05 )

In the cold baptismal water

I released my final breath

But a hand reached down from heaven

And pulled me up from death

I was born anew, resurrected

To face a brand new day

And as I turned to look down river

I saw the "old man" drift away

He looked so sad and lonely

Like a ghost from days gone past

I'm sensing now a future

My soul set free at last

(chorus)

Cast off the old man

He'll have no hold on me

Put an end to perdition

Set this captive free

Looking forward with vision

I see a future bright as day

Glad for my decision

The past has washed away

In the warmth of daylight glowing

I drew my first new breath

Eternal life now flowing

I never shall know death

Holy Soldiers ( 3-2003 )

Holding against the darkness

Aiming towards the fight

Bringing peace to end the madness

Proud bearers of the light

Offering calm to stop the choas

Sacrificing some to save the whole

Though a man can kill the body

He cannot kill the soul

(chorus)

March now bravely holy soldiers

Til heaven makes for you a home

Carry the good news in your travels

Plant seeds of truth where you may roam

Engaging in the heated battle

Fiery arrows in the air

Explosions blast, machine guns rattle

Go in peace without a care

Knowing in whom you've trusted

In Him you can depend

He is Alpha and Omega

The beginning and the end

Master (8-2003)

Would it have helped the cause

Have helped your fight

If I had prayed into the night ?

I never dream't

I never knew

That when I slept, they'd come for you

Master of my soul

You taught me to feel

Showed me love

Caused me to heal

(chorus x 2)

How will I live

Can I forgive

When will I see

Your love for me ?

You told me once

I'd deny you thrice

Before I heard the rooster twice

Then awakened from my rest

I drew the sword and failed the test

Didn't turn the other cheek

The Spirit willing, the flesh was weak

And now I know without a doubt

Just what your grace is all about

(chorus)

Knightfall (July 30 2009)

Mighty men of valor

Seek out your destiny

For if blood holds no freedom

Then hope is lost to thee

Temper now thy swords

With fires glowing kiss

Sound the trumpets

Raise the shields

Let not thy arrows miss

(chorus)

Knightfall has come and blood is on the hand

The people without a king

A king without a land

Shrouded in thick darkness

A used up empty throne

Decaying there in barreness

The castle stands alone

The heroes all have fallen

Who will rise against the night

Another thrust for freedom

Another sworn to fight

(repeat chorus)

The Reaper (July 9th 2006)

On a dark moonless night

Upon a pale steed

Rides a creature of fright

To quench his burning need

He's a fierce hooded being

In pursuit of a mortal

A huntsman from the fiery portal

(chorus)

Reaper...riding the four winds

Reaper...taking lives again

Reaper...stealing your last breath

Reaper... the shadow of death

With a swing of his scythe

He causes men to die

Leaving behind

Those who ask why

Some on their feet

And some in the bed

He sends them to

The land of the dead

So watch over your shoulder

And behind you in the mirror

For today is one day closer

And the Reaper always near

Journey To Jupiter ( 2-2003 )

When all the planets aline

And gravity pulls my way

I'll be feeling fine

I'm blastin off today

Got my space suit on

Double checked all my gear

In an hour I'll be gone

Be back again next year

From the journey to Jupiter

And the countdown begins !

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 lift off !!

Well I circled the mass

There's lots of hydrogen gas

And a giant red spot

Where everything gets caught

I feel so small out here

Like a speck or a dot

But I have no fear

Cause I'm an astronaut

On the journey to Jupiter

I'm on the journey to Jupiter

Eight Legged Soul ( 8-2003 )

Swinging from a silken thread

The man with an eight legged soul

Senses pulsing through his head

Justice for his goal

High above a city street

On top of a towering highrise

Up where clouds and concrete meet

Waitng in disguise

(chorus)

Well he's a man that's radioactive

He's a hero through and through

He's both a human and arachnid

And he'll be dropping in on you

Swooping down from nowhere

Emerging from the night

When trouble calls he'll be there

Ready for a fight

Down beneath the amber glow

Of city lights secure

Springs the crawling costumed man

A hero brave and sure

(chorus)

Oceanic Travelers ( 2002 )

Oceanic travelers

Rise up from their cold home

Climbing towards the starry night

To feel the warm sea foam

Decendants from the dawn of time

Before the days of man

Displaying beauty so sublime

Image if you can

(chorus)

Oh I'm enticed by every motion

Held back by my own fear

Overwhelmed with pure emotion

When I feel her drawing near

Citizens of the tall kelp forest

Living in subdued light

Far below the ocean crest

But still an awesome sight

Swaying in the driving current

The force of nature grows

Savouring every saline moment

Aquatic treasures to disclose

(chorus)

Gravitate (2002)

The tide is arising

The hunters moon is full

Can't help but be affected

By gravitational pull

Spinning in it's orbit

The Earth begins to strain

My body feels the motion

Reacting chemicals in the brain

(chorus)

Gravitate to the moonlit sky

Respirate to the feeling in the air

Elevate your senses to a natural high

Appreciate the moment without a care

At times like this

I remember our first kiss

My emotions become full

As your love touches my soul

Together again in a soft embrace

A warm breeze in our hair

We watch the night as planets trace

Slowly through the air

Deceiver ( September 3 2009 )

Why are you so afraid little man

Can't you hold this country in your hand

Do you really think we buy your policies

Maybe you just like to spread those fallacies

Aunt Nancy's in the kitchen cooking again

It's your favorite dish

The one that gives your face an evil grin

Well we're not about to swallow your lies

Cause we can see behind your slick disguise

( chorus )

Deceiver

Enemy of the state

Deceiver

Controling human fate

Deceiver

A different flag unfurled

For today he fools America

But tomorrow he rules the world

Deceiver (whispered)

Solar Star (April 2 2007)

An Orbiting Angel circles earth in silent flight

Spread solar wings now

Collect the cosmic light

Drifting with a purpose

Sounding trumpets from afar

The end is near, repent, don't fear

Transmits the Solar Star

The message is relayed

But history has replayed

And the world grows darker still

To seek indulgence for it's fill

The man of sin wages war again

In the age old timeless tale

But I've read to the end

And I know who'll win

A sinful man will always fail

Dreaming Again (June 20 2006)

Eyes closed tight

Night vision in my head

Seeing without sight

Unconsciously led

Monochromatic images

Appear and fade in lunar light

No plan for wise direction

No navigator for flight

Drifting in an aimless sleep

Where mindlocked terrors roam

Praying there my soul to keep

Until I make it home

(chorus)

Dreaming again

Can't find the way

To make it back

I'm here to stay

Shake me now

Ease this mental pain

Help me to stop

Dreaming again

Calling from the darkness

An uttered mumbled tone

In a cry of desperation

Don't want to be alone

My body jolts

I gasp for air

Got to escape this shadow lair

I'm in too deep

Falling back to sleep

I find myself...

(chorus) repeat

Patriots Song ( 11-2002 )

Just heard it on the news

The documents are signed

Missiles ready to cruise

Allied forces aligned

International patriots

Heed the duty call

To stop another global threat

To make a tyrant fall

Scrambling in the still dark hour

Taking courage to the air

Heavily armed with fire power

To destroy his desert lair

(chorus)

Sing the heroes story

Salute their guts and glory

Sing the patriots song

It's a tribute to the strong

Shooting swiftly through the sky

Like meteors across the night

Hear the warriors battle cry

With engines burning bright

Wave after wave munitions are spent

Still the madman won't relent

Round after round buildings crash down

Forcing the terrorist underground

Deep beneath the shifting sand

Pondering his defeat

Sulking there with head in hand

A palace leveled to the street

With much gratitude and heartfelt thanks

Recognition and honor we send

To the protectors of the common peace

The ones sworn to defend

Alien Dream ( 2001 )

Once when I was a boy

In the middle of the night

My family awakened

To a beacon of fright

An intrusive light

Interrupted the night

It sliced through our home

Fearfully bright

In the following silence

As quite as a stone

A low hum in the distance

I found myself alone

They had taken my brothers

My mom and my dad

Abducted the only family I'd ever had

( chorus )

Was this a reality

Could things be as they seem ?

A twist in my mentality

Or a dark alien dream ?

As the invaders made preparations for flight

I stumbled through the glowing light

Unlocked the chambers where my family stood bound

Then slipped them away without a sound

With aliens unaware and hatch closed tight

They whirled away into the night

The enemy was defeated

Could things be what they seem ?

Evil had been cheated

In my dark alien dream
