"A Tempting Offer" lyrics
"A Tempting Offer"
[Daryus:]
Trustful boy
Unaware who's watching
Open the door
I am right behind you
Don't resist me, child
There's no use in fighting
We'll be here a while
Do you recognize me?
Look into my eyes
I'm the face of freedom
When Daddy does arrive
He's in for a surprise
[Arhys:]
How dare you step inside my home?
[Daryus:]
His life is in my hands
[Arhys:]
You monster, leave my son alone!
[Daryus:]
You do know who I am
Your love for him is strong
[Arhys:]
He's just a boy
He's done no wrong
This fight's not his to lose
I have everything you want
[Daryus:]
Your next decision
Will decide his fate
So listen to the words I have to say
Give up The Chosen One
And you will guarantee your son
Lives the life you never had
Wealth and prosperity
Beyond what you have ever seen
And, best of all, Xander will be free
He'll never want again
It's such an easy choice
Just think about your son
And I won't have to stand
In Faythe's dark shadow anymore
I am through with being pushed aside
Tired of fighting for my father's pride
Take the evening to decide
Thanks to Emylia Hawke for correcting these lyrics.

Ayreon - "The Day That The World Breaks Down" A silence so deafening
As the stillness surrounds us
A rush of fear is surging through our veins
A shadow so menacing
Darkens our horizon
What have we done?
Is this the end
When death descends?...
Kamelot - "Karma" I am a king of honor
Gold and glory
But every king must also die
Have I been just and righteous
What is glory
I know I've torn and taken life
And here I stand
A small and simple man
Who will trade...

I fantasised about soaring with golden wings

Hypnotized by the cockroach and it's promise

Maybe you have heard about
Black widow spider is on the wall
Weaving a silken web
Patiently works her thread
Quiet she lies there waiting
For your time to fall
I was fooled...

A snake-tongued devil by your side
