They're coming
Begin to light we must ignite the creed to fight begin our night
They're coming
Wake up the dreamers we demand the need of rights
In the dead of night a hero sets his sights to warn of destruction
A call of arms begins the motion.
There is no good bye no second glances for in the midst
We, we see a glimpse
Of mass oppression coming to take our lives
They can't take our fight
We're living free of monarchy
Brothers take hands
It's our time to give this nation its only chance.
Not one step back
A true man will take a stand.
Liberty rings echoing through the streets the beginning of everything.
Take pride for this is the picture we must live by or die, or die
They're coming
Begin to light we must ignite we creed to fight begin our night
They're coming
Wake up the dreamers we demand the need of rights
How can we sleep at night?
Knowing that were hidden by our lack of devotion
Just stoic disposition what robotic guise.
Simply take time to remember our forefathers plight.
How could we make light of such a momentous fight?
Could we ever make ourselves right?
Don't stand for another moment, wasted.

Snakes in your mouth
Their tongues whisper a venomous lie
So well disguised
They deceive even you
They're not to blame
They're just part of this game
Where egos make the moves
And hearts always lose
[Chorus:]
Anger grows in me
Twisting my sense of reality
This sweet dream shattered
Beauty and bliss that could have been
Now – as you're weak and bleeding
Dwelling in your tomb of misery
I – still undefeated
Enjoy the spoils of my victories
Too late to see my divinity
With blood and with sweat
I've paid for my success
Even more dedication
I would've offered you
But you're a disease
A parasite I do not need
Gladly I leave you on
The withered killing field
[Chorus]
Now – as you're weak and bleeding
Ditching your soul in a rotten tomb
Sick, alone and needing
You hope I'd be there to comfort you
Your time for pity is overdue
[Chorus:]
Anger burns in me
Releasing me from this misery
One sweet dream shattered
But now I know who I'm meant to be
Force – it gathers in us
Leading us on to our destiny
With might now handed to us
We shine with joy, grace and unity
You just did not want to follow me
You – alone and needing
I – still undefeated
You lie weak, cold, alone and needing
Kiuas - Aftermath, I think it fits quite well. (Also, Chap, since you posted a bunch of Kamelot, I strongly encourage you to check out this band further. This song is on the extreme side for them.)
