Traitor 06:15
Order called Welcome to this court room today We're sentencing this soul here today He's on trial for heresy we say His life must end to fix the human race This traitor walks among us Spreading all his lies This traitor walks among us Spreading all those lies He speaks out at orders that we've lain He can't control his tongue he's insane This courtroom will sentence him today This can't go on he has got to die This traitor walks among us Spreading all his lies This traitor walks among us We'll sentence him to die Now I've got one more chance for you to take You've the chance to save yourself, know what's at stake I know what you've done but I can not control Stand by my side and we will throw this all away Where's your loyalty lie? There's a place right by my side Where's your loyalty lie? There's a place right by my side This traitor walks among us Spreading all his lies This traitor walks among us We've sentenced him to die

The Gunslinger walks through the sands in to the dawn A silhouette carved out of stone rises above The Dark Tower waits The things I forsake I can't take the blame for the things I've done I can't walk away This thing is unchained I don't want to be so far away The Crimson King, eater of worlds, atop his throne Devising Discordia to remake the world The Dark Tower waits The things I forsake I can't take the blame for the things I've done I can't walk away This thing is unchained I don't want to be so far away

A big mistake led to their fate A world unknown, a tale untold Out from the darkness in to the light See the darkness calling Surrounding dead there is no escape Step inside of the Shadow of Dead Mountain Where the evil came to be (Out from the darkness in to the light) Shadow of Dead Mountain Still a mystery to this day Expedition trail, the final nail Compelling force, death or a curse? Out from the darkness in to the light See the darkness calling Surrounding dead there is no escape Step inside of the Shadow of Dead Mountain Where the evil came to be (Out from the darkness in to the light) Shadow of Dead Mountain Still a mystery to this day

Say my name, taste of fear becoming Go insane, seas of blood are falling Say my name, wings of death before thee Call my name, taste of fear Scream my name, taste of fear becoming Go insane, say my name Say my name, look to the sky that's falling Call my name, call in vein Scream my name, hand of death befalls thee Call my name, scream in pain Scream my name, end of the world before thee Scream my name, taste the fear

Locked away and thrown away the key my foresight's all that I've seen Life's restriction, no fame or addiction a prophet or madness is me Otherwise blinded, but not absent minded the visions are all I can see Terror, destruction, gore and seduction is this what is going to be? Circling madness I see visions around me All I can see is what I don't want to be Screaming within, I can't take any more Shackled in chains, my body is estranged my mind is all that is free In darkness comes fire, free pass for a liar a puppet master pulling the strings A fight for resources, no cars and no horses I see a shell of what used to be A future depiction, is all of this fiction? What the hell does all of this mean? Circling madness I see visions around me All I can see is what I don't want to be Screaming within, I can't take any more My eyes are blazing but none of it's fading, return me to the blackness I seek Horror, sickness, plaguing the weakest, the rotting of the corpses to be Excuse is religion for destroying a region using fear to meet their own needs No wonder I'm in here, no witness to my fear I hope this is some madness in me Circling madness I see visions around me All I can see is what I don't want to be Screaming within, I can't take any more Returning darkness, no more visions to bind me All I can see is blindness stricken to me Peaceful within, I couldn't take any more

Terror awakens the hatred and anger of man The streets running red with the blood of the dead Maniacal ideals are taking their toll Retaliation, the countdown has begun Horrify, Terrify, Genocide, Sacrifice The media frenzies, a social regime Tongues lashing wildly, they spread the disease Censor the weak as they cry with their pleas The real question is, what have we become? Horrify, Terrify, Genocide, Sacrifice Wild fires ravage the world, ignorance seems like bliss The hunt for the game, for sport turned to fame Death and destruction, we leave in our wake Extinction a crime, when is it our time? Horrify, Terrify, Genocide, Sacrifice Horrify the world with actions beyond belief Proving we are set to destroy ourselves We are setting the tide for our young to follow See our sons and daughters dying since birth Governments rise and fall, the innocent doomed to fail Money plays the power game, a devil's toy for sale Fight for a country, thrown away for another day Humanities bind is the evil within Where will we end up when we start to get down the line? The tyranny of greed, and lust to succeed We must pick ourselves up there's good in us all Can we all change before we all fall?

May of '37, the craft it soars Second year of flight, to their delight Boston on the morn' of what we won't soon forget Headwinds slow the flight for landing at Lakehurst before night, they set a course for Manhattan's skies, unaware of what's soon to come See the flames start rising From the pride of the skies As it joins the R101 on the page See the tears from crying Oh the humanity This is how the end of an era came to be Seven of the night, a flying moor to the mooring mast, its final plight Standard procedure before the ending unfolds Igniting of gas the airship became engulfed in flames, a shell remains End of airship flight was decided after this night See the flames start rising From the pride of the skies As it joins the R101 on the page See the tears from crying Oh the humanity This is how the end of an era came to be
