"ASHES OF EDEN" ALBUM LYRICS: STORM WARNING (Music & Lyrics : Erik Cameron) In the Valley of the Wind The lonely dead will rise again A child's soul risen to the storm And in the clouds she was reborn The voices of their dead are carried On the wind that blows And now they've returned for your soul Storm Warning Storm Warning A spirit much too young to leave Now rides the storm forever free By your window whispered pleas Come leave the flesh and run with me Open the door and she'll take you away And with her forever you'll stay Storm Warning Storm Warning Run with the thunder And sail past the stars With your own wings it's never too far Storm Warning Storm Warning CRYSTAL SKY (Music: E. and Chris Cameron, Lyrics: Andy Dracons Giardina) Our green Mother embraced by the sky In eternal foresight of what the future holds He is the Adversary to be overcome by the Ace The secret is to make the two into one On the blue horizon a new star is born Above the skies of this battlezone Kali Yuga approaching the end The end is approaching and it's coming to stay I see the Angel of fire Riding up the spiral Into the eye of the moon Towards the Crystal Sky And the world keeps on burning away To pierce through the veil that separates the worlds With the blade of transparency, the Third Eye is opening I see the Unifying One, of the four heads and scarlet wings Great Angel of Judgment and Binder of Dragons On the blue horizon a new star is born Above the skies of this battlezone Son of man I ask of you powerful visions To see us across this abyss of lies See all the Angels of fire Riding up the spiral Watching the world fade away Into the Crystal Sky Moving into a new dimension I see the Angel of fire Riding up the spiral Into the eye of the moon Towards the Crystal Sky And the world keeps on burning away See all the Angels of fire Riding up the spiral Watching the world fade away Into the Crystal Sky Moving into a new dimension FROZEN IN TIME (Music: E. and C. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) Red Dragon rising stands guard at the gates Enthroned in a palace of crystals The lies that are buried where the road never ends At the beginning of time He who is to come again is the Keeper of the Way Eyes of the Sphynx are the wings of tomorrow Ride the wings of the future Ride the wings of tomorrow Keep your heads low in case the sky should fall on our heads Tower of death hovers ahead, over yonder Who will be the one to avenge the name When we have to descend into Hades Death in Hell is resurrection unto life And frozen in time we are waiting Doors of time are opening in the gloom of the day Chained to the aeons the Angel is trying to break free And what were you doing with the Guardian of the Grail? Riding the waves of time? Ride the wings of the future Ride the wings of tomorrow Keep your heads low in case the sky should fall on our heads Tower of death hovers ahead, over yonder Who will be the one to avenge the name We will have to descend into Hades Death in Hell is resurrection unto life And frozen in time we are waiting Let me be the One to avenge the name When we have to descend into Hades Death in Hell for resurrection unto life And frozen in time we are waiting TEARS OF THE WORLD (Lacrimae Mundi) (Music: E. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) There is a light at the end of the tunnel It's just a dragon that is waiting to strike No pleas for mercy to be heard today Angel of the Dark is watching every move we make There are those who will let you in Bury the word and the hour until you've seen Awaiting the seventh glow in the 13th hour Man still walks in fear down this street of broken dreams Tears of woe are falling down The tears of the world Solitude is just a song and you are never really alone The sadness of the world Is screaming out my name Tearing through the open wounds and the eyes of the unborn Tears of woe are falling down The tears of the world Solitude is just a tune and you are never really alone The sadness of the world Is screaming out my name Tearing through the open wounds and the eyes of the unborn Angel of Darkness Contemplates the night Set to destroy The bringers of light Lacrimae Mundi Falling like rain HEAVEN ON THEIR MINDS (Music & Lyrics: Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice, from the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar") IN REMEMBRANCE (9/11/01) (Music: E. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) Even a King is not indestructible after all Always paid heed to the warnings But one dark night The philosopher magician yielded To the red eye of the dragon Watch his spirit rise with the whirlwind Wisdom rides on brave wings of remembrance And we are all sworn to the quest White halls of splendor and statues of gold Fading away into haze The philosopher magician yielded To the red eye of the dragon And these castles can't endure the shock Ancient statues gazing out toward distant horizons The spirit always strives to reach higher Wisdom rides on brave wings of remembrance And we are all sworn to the quest White halls of splendor and statues of gold Memories starting to fade Away We are calling you back through the veils of the Ages To be by our side once again Justice rides on cold winds of rebellion And we are all born in the whirlwind Why won't you join us to seek what was lost I tell you the end is not far For some it's the sweet taste of vengeance on the rocks that kills For others the desire to do it again And again AGAIN THE GATEKEEPER (Music: E. & C. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) For the keepers of time now the well has run dry and the hour glass shattered to pieces In the void are the faceless expressions of fear That will chase you into your next lifetime Some will say That there is no time To keep the ball rolling But even when you've lost the game You can still pick yourself up for another round Opener of the gates Is standing alone Watching in the Shadows In the hour of darkness where evil awaits The guardian of the threshold sent to keep the course Avatar of the piscean age moving into Aquarius The Way of the Father traversed by the Spirit The secret well hidden in just retribution Some will say That there is no time To keep the ball rolling But even when you've lost the game You can still pick yourself up for another round The Opener of the gates Is standing alone Watching in the Shadows As the hour of darkness approaches the end The guardian of the threshold sent to keep the course The opening of the way for these burning souls Some will say That there is no time To keep the ball rolling But even when you've lost the game You can still pick yourself up for another round Opener of the gates Is standing alone He's watching in the Shadows In the hour of darkness where evil awaits The guardian of the threshold sent to keep the course Avatar of the piscean age has entered Aquarius SHADOW OF THE SUN (Music: E. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) Burning bright upon my eyes The vision in black Came here to show me the way to the past In doubt I cleanse my mind Anyway I can I don't believe in the words of the serpents Keep away from me, I have found my peace In the shadow of the sun where the birds will sing Ruby star breaks out the dawn As the shadows fall Some distant planet where life still grows In the darkness I close my eyes waiting for the sun Red Giant lives on giving life to ALL So keep away from me cause I have found my peace In the shadow of the sun where the children never sleep Dreams of hope crumble into dust As you walk tomorrow's footsteps But you can't let it drag you down You' re always waiting for someone to give you a chance And some are needed to spur man on To be redeemed at the end of the road No more doubts I've freed my mind From your wall of lies Never took for granted a word you said So keep away from me and the place I live It's the shadow of the sun where the birds always sing Don't waste your time with the lies that you tell yourself You'll never return to your land of dreams And you can't let it drag you down You're always waiting for someone to give you a chance WINDS OF WAR (Music: E. Cameron, Lyrics: A. Dracons Giardina) Consecrated to the sun and rising with the wind Conquering the tide of fear we were born to be alive On the way back to the center we'll stop for nobody If you want to live forever better find something to do You can tell me that there's nothing left In this world to make your own And the winds keep blowing, the winds of war So tell me where are we to go? Those who remember the oath Are waiting for the tide to turn And he who knows the secrets of the void Will be the one to laugh in the face of death But you can't tell me That there's nothing wrong to call this world your own While the winds keep blowing, the winds of war Where do you want us to go? And you can tell me That there's nothing left To call this world your own Still the winds keep blowing, the winds of war Now reap all the seeds that you've sown But you can't tell me that there's nothing going on In this world to make your own While the winds keep blowing, the winds of war When will you leave us alone ?????
