"A Fortune In Lies" lyrics
"A Fortune In Lies"
For the first time in a long time
Everything was right in my world
And then I woke up
I can remember when in the unity of our five-day sessions
Not even once did we hear the siren song
What kind of imagination, asleep in some lyrical coma
Who's vain futile memory could have been so wrong?
You can make a fortune in lies
You can keep a giant alive
You can ride the red
Until everybody smiles
A trifling euphoria was such an untimely religion
Maybe your life can explain the reason for my indecision
Here is a poor man, the heart of this monster creation
He said we both will be heroes and I was led into temptation
You can make a fortune in lies
You can keep a giant alive
You can ride the red
Until everybody smiles
Can you show me your gold and your silver?
A hero in frozen water
Now you've made a fortune in lies
And you kept a giant alive
You rode the red, you rode the red!

Too hot, too greedy
How could you leave me?
When I needed to possess you
I hated you, I loved you too......

All inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some...
Paradise Lost - "Hallowed Land" You'd love to be so far away
It's not a long way to go, it's gonna end in your pain
Greet open handed stranger
Create the turmoil, you're not sane

So...
Yngwie Malmsteen - "Rising Force" Out of the darkness, the voices are calling
Riding the wings of a song
The fury is screaming and Heaven is falling
I feel it coming on strong
The lightning, strikes cracking the night
It feels like...
Queensryche - "Queen Of The Reich" In the dead of night
She'll come and take you away
Searing beams of light and thunder
Over blackened plains
She will find her way
Flying high through the night
She will hide your fate
As she takes...
