Six in the Grave
04:19
|
|||
Trees tumbling down, falling to the ground,
You forced them to bow with the weight of your crown
Seas upside down, pouring through your town
Crippled and drowned in the furious sound
But I recall the old summer days, when love and life were always the same
Now that you're falling there's no use in calling me
You're just the anchor that's pulling me down
My head is ringing the songs we were singing are silently fading away
I think he's going insane drying his books in the rain
I'll keep on traveling you'll be unraveling burning your bridges away
When will he ever behave? Not 'til he's six in the grave
I sail you dreadful seas above the fallen trees
but all who remain here now have your disease
My head is ringing the songs we were singing are silently fading away
I think he's going insane drying his books in the rain
I'll keep on traveling you'll be unraveling burning your bridges away
When will he ever behave? Not 'til he's six in the grave

This Is Blythe

I seek the grave, my mortal form, I am enslaved
I am enslaved, I seek the grave
Time comes to pass, a forming star, a blade of grass
A dying star, time comes to pass
I've seen wonders walk in hidden places, valleys stopped in time
Still I can't find no peace of mind
I've set out and wandered aimlessly, across the barren land
Yet all i touch still turns to sand
I am lost, forgotten things i once enjoyed
I took a life to fill the the void
I am Lost, they said to kill was not a sin
Heed my word, take advice not from the djinn
Misfortune stains these hands of mine, 2000 years ago
I took the deadric head, but now the curse lies on mine own
I wanted more, but i was only passing through
I knew without the head I'd have no tomb
And finally beneath the mountain, ages came and passed
I found the deadric head, deep in the caverns vast
Returning to Kiara's hollow and setting it upon,
The pedestal where it once lay, i turn to greet the dawn
This is blythe, at last i feel the wind again
And i can hear them calling, across the silver sea
I will arrive, I'm sure i found the path again
The seabirds sing omega, let the final tide take me

Highlander 40
05:04

She pulled her eyes from the road and flew to the sun which was doomed to explode
When her feet left the ground it was all but illusion for nothing was found
Woah! Nothing will ever be found while keeping your head in the clouds
Here comes foul weather come back to the ground
She said goodbye to the Moon. She spoke to her softly and whistled a tune
And spread her wings like a dove but her eyes turned to silver when she fell from above
Woah! Nothing will ever be found while keeping your head in the clouds
Here comes foul weather come back to the ground
Alice you're going too soon. Come back to this place, return from the tomb
Alice you're going too fast. Come back to this place, return to the past
I was sailing at sea when she floated by and she called out to me
Then we pulled of our clothes we flew to the sun which was doomed to explode
Woah! Nothing will ever be found while keeping your head in the clouds
Here comes foul weather come back to the ground

Fox on the Run
03:26
|

She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love that that poor boy could give her
And left my to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox (like a fox) on the run
Now everybody knows the reason for the fall
when woman tempted man down in paradise hall
That woman tempted me, and took me for a ride
And like a lonely fox i need a place to hide
Well pour a glass of wine to fortify the soul
We'll talk about the world and the friends we used to know
I see a string of girls, they put me on the floor
The game is nearly over the hounds are at my door

The River
04:38
|
|||
Sometimes in life seems nothing’s gonna change,
Other days feels like nothing’s gonna stay the same.
With so little time to go through so many memories,
There’s always one feeling that’ll bring me back home.
Once It cries out, the song of Two Rivers,
In ripples of those days that have long passed on,
The banks of my brethren- warm, welcome, and lazy,
Come home to the river... to remember once more.
Seeds of hope fan out into the sea,
The many waves divide,rushing onward as one.
Holding to a dream the rivers are telling,
It moved me, it still changes me,
Carry me on.
Life’s moments are driftwood, built up down river
Pooling the currents that run from the tor
No matter how strong or faithful,they won’t hold forever
Break free and the river remembers once more
Sometimes in life seems nothing’s gonna change,
Other days feels like nothing’s gonna stay the same.
With so little time to go through so many memories,
There’s always one feeling that’ll bring me back home.

Finally Free
04:14
|

Malcolm set fire to the Veil,
And it spiraled in circles
Into the Sea of the Endless Night.
The air began to rumble
And howl in fury;
The earth was shaking like a rocket taking flight.
And I clearly heard the call of the open sky,
A cold hard wind tumblin' 'tween the black and white.
Stone walls crumbled into rubble,
As the wild wind thundered,
The fire grew and drove us to the islands edge,
And we leapt out over the rocks,
From 12 stories high;
It was the only chance we had left.
And as I hung in the air, a stone between the sea and sky,
That cold hard wind for a moment helped me fly.
I could feel the heavens growing,
Outside of the rusted walls.
Though we might not make it back, or be found,
I'll never touch the ground;
We are Finally Free
And I'd stop to take a breath,
But that cold iron curse
Would surely swallow me up in regret.
And I feel like that hound's
Always right round the corner,
But he ain't brought me down yet.
And so I'll live on the run, maybe for the rest of my life,
Each day one more day, each night one last night...
I can feel the heavens glowing,
Outside of This Little Round World.
Until the dust from the past settles down,
I'll never touch the ground;
We are Finally Free.

Mithrandir
04:11
|
|||
So long! Until we meet again I'll sing your song
By the light of the moon I will find my way home
Hold on, the riders cross the Brandywine at dawn
And i must be away before the morning.
I'll be on my way and you will softly say to me
Our love is true and i will come back for you
Goodbye! I see a lot of sorrow in your eye
But the shape of a smile is softly growing
Fair thee well I love you more than words will ever tell
And i know that you feel the same about me
I'll be on my way and you will softly say to me
Our love is true and i will come back for you

Down the Line

Down the line so many times tryin' to chase that dream of mine,
Down the line so many times searching for that gold mine
Down the line so many times tryin' to chase that dream of mine
Down the line so many times searching for that gold
Grampa said when he was young, he went looking for the very same one
Now he's old he's lost his love, making moonshine in the tub
Told me boy you'll be just fine, don't chase that dream don't find that mine
What really matters ain't hard to find, pass me that jar of moon shine
Preacher told me best do right, devil come to get you in the middle of the night
Drunk on shine thought right was left, devil come to put me to the test
Asked me boy what'd make you sing? A box of gold, a diamond ring?
Sorry Lord but here's thing, I traded my soul for white lightning
Now I look back have i come far? Ain't got no job, no wife, no car
Lost my life, I've lost my love, making moonshine in the tub
Down the line so many times tryin' to chase that dream of mine
Down the line so many times searching for that gold (mine)
