"Siege Of Baghdad" lyrics
"Siege Of Baghdad"
Burning the sands alight way into the air
Dark black clouds obscure the sky a twilight of despair
And Babylon is overrun by armies of the lord
Who cleanse their souls in holy wars and sing in praise of sword
The mighty cross of Jerusalem the crescent moon of troy
Saracens and noblemen a sport they all enjoy
Churning black, the seas awash environmental doom
Oil wells are set alight obscure a darkling moon
Euphrates valleys overrun by armies of the west
Sent by god to claim their prize a black gold treasure chest
The mighty cross of Jerusalem the crescent moon of troy
Saracens and noblemen a sport they all enjoy
From the cradle of civilization springs the mother of all wars
A u.n. team of investigation the breaking of all human laws
We will never finish what we started and break the tyrants rule
Just like all those old time crusaders we're the only fools
Evil takes what evil needs and there ain't no middle way
Just like all those christian martyrs we're the ones who'll pay
Join the new crusade

Fates Warning - "Through Different Eyes" We're walking within a shadow
Where echoes of different times resound
Looking for memories to relive
In yesterdays that can't be found.
Through different eyes
We keep looking for what we lack....

Dr. Blair, Dr. Blair, Dr. J. Hamilton, Dr. J Hamilton
All alone now
Except for the memories
Of what we had and what we knew
Everytime I try to leave it behind...
Spock's Beard - "Ghosts Of Autumn" Listen to the whisper of the rain
Voices in the mist
Beyond your window
And you remember
Days of love she spun a web of chains
That wrapped around your heart
And when you held her
You held forever...
Darkwater - "A Fools Utopia" When night and day unite
And dreams turn to dust
Another day to be
Consumed in tragedy
Calamity
You're set up to be free
But the mirror lies to you
Wafting every fear within me
Downing inside
Fatal...
The Pineapple Thief - "Nothing At Best" Yeah, it was me
I give you nothing at best to hold on to
You said you had enough?
So you said? So you said...
It's never felt so right
But I am telling you to run for your life
Just stay with me...
