1. FALLING DOWN

Domes of crystal spires of light reach out
We’re aspirational creatures there’s no doubt
Living in our brutal cities, nurture an inhuman race
Perish the weak, only the strong will last the pace
The sick and hungry all cry out
But nobody cares to hear them shout..

Our world is falling down
Spinning round
Falling down…
We're out of control we’re falling down
Spinning round falling down….

Smack a child and hope that it will learn
Close your minds again, and we will burn
Arrogance can make us crazy, science is a blinding light
Open your eyes listen to your heart to know what’s right
The dark dictators parade their might
Listen to your heart to know what’s right

Our world is falling down
Spinning round
Falling down…
We're out of control we’re falling down
Spinning round falling down….

Now the lunatics rise again


2. CRASH AND BURN

Talk all we do is talk
All we do is scream, scream

Peace, we dream of peace
But it’s impossible

Learn, we never seem to learn
How can we always get it so wrong

We’re living in hope
One day we’ll all join as one….

Five miles high in a sanctuary sky
The shakers and movers conduct their manoeuvres
Like Gods on Olympus so safe in this place….
The dove hunts the eagle

Unseen, up on high, from an alien sky
Like a flash of blue lightning
A power that is frightening
To cut off his head with just one single blow……….
The dove takes the eagle


3. SOMETHING IN THE DEEP

Somewhere in the dark, lies the my heart
Somewhere in the deep I will find the answer

Somewhere in the darkness, I rest but cannot sleep
Somewhere in the deep… lies my power

Somewhere up above, they’ve forgotten how to love
Somehow up above, I must guide them

Somewhere in my dreams, many futures I have seen
Somewhere far away, they are watching…


4. MONSTER

I hear no music on the radio
Switch on my Tv there's nothing left amuses me
Can’t find a movie or a comedy show
No sound of laughter no happy ever after
I see them talking but don’t hear what they say
They're all sounding crazy it truly starts to faze me
It's just outrageous their hate appears contageous
They take it the wire, they take it the wire….

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming
I fear a monster… I hear a monster coming
I see the soldiers as they’re boarding their plane
They smile and they’re taunting, a bravery that’s haunting
Broken mothers fear they come home again
Wrapped up in a flag, huh

Tin pot dictators chase their own atom bomb
While this planet is melting and no one cares for helping
We argue over nothing my head is really hurting
They take it to the wire, take it the to wire….

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming
I fear a monster… I hear a monster coming

I am just an ordinary guy
The world's gone crazy I couldn’t tell you why
I hear no music just distant angry voices
Fear in the air, panic everywhere
It tears my soul apart, the hatred and lies
I see my friends, despair in their eyes
Something tells me the end has begun
A monster's coming there's no place to run

Run

I feel a monster… I feel a monster coming
I hear a monster… I fear a monster’s coming
I feel a monster… I fear a monster coming
I see a monster… I see a monster coming………


5. THE ALIEN MESSIAH

Hear me, see me, as I step on to your stage
I talk to every one of you so I subdue your rage
Your leaders have failed you
Your world sits on the edge
Here and now before you, I make this solemn pledge

Follow me (and the crowd went wild)
Come to me (man woman and child)
Trust in me (all the world go wild)
And you will see .......come here from a time and place
Where leaders proved their might
No question from their people of their wisdom and their sight
I offer you direction you have never seen before
Realise your destiny and open up your door

Follow me (and the crowd went wild)
Come to me......... ( man woman and child)
Trust in me........ ( all the world go wild)
And you will see ........

I promise you a golden age prosperity and power
Where peace prevails and nothing fails
Your finest hour

"I'm sorry, I don't want to be your Emperor. That is not my purpose. I don't want to rule or conquer you
We seeded this planet millennia ago in the hope that the you would flourish and produce a world of culture and enlightenment.

We want to help you, That is the Atlantean way
We want you to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's misery

We don't want you to hate and despise one another
In this world there is room for everyone and your good Earth is rich and can provide for everyone

Your way of life could be free and beautiful, but you have lost your way
Greed, has poisoned your souls, has infected your world with hate, has dragged you into misery and bloodshed
You have developed technology, but have lost sight of why
Technology that created abundance has left you in want

Your knowledge has made you cynical not wise, your cleverness is hard and unkind
You think too much and care too little
More than technology, you need humanity
More than cleverness, you need compassion
Without these qualities, your lives will end violently, and all will be lost "

Follow me (and the crowd went wild)
Come to me......... ( man woman and child)
Trust in me........ ( all the world go wild)
And you will see ........


6. XXV PART 1 : TWENTYFIVE GOOD HONEST MEN

Cling on to life, cling on to hope
Cling to your future on the end of a burning rope
Should you choose to light the fuse
And ignore that for which I labour
I’ll see you burning bright
In the night sky of your neighbours

Is this the final act of your sad and sorry play
You took our gift of Paradise and you threw it all awa
Like a mini supernova you'll be over in a flash
Turn your history, your culture and your children into ash….

Twenty five true honest men
To rule your world with wisdom
We can all begin again
Give me Twenty Five, good honest men
We've saved your world before
We can save you once again…

I am no God, I am just a man
But your reticence to listen, calls for a totally different plan
I have a mission to judge you,
From a higher intellectual plain
To decide if you are worthy, if your existence will remain

You must cease the endless bickering and find a different way
If you fail to heed these warnings, I will sweep you all away
You have twenty five short hours to comply with all I say
Any semblance of a failure and this will be your final day

Give me Twenty Five true honest men
None can corrupt or interrupt
In pursuance of this plan

Just Twenty Five to dedicate their lives
To lead you, to guide you, to a future filled with light


7. YOUNG GOD

I listen to your weasel words
At times you’re sounding quite absurd
Humanity, compassionate deeds
Slave to all your peoples needs
Liars!

We’ve watched your progress throughout time
We sent so many warning signs
You were the children of the gods
But you have failed us against all odds
Failures!

There will be no more romances,
There will be no second chances
I will hear no plea of mitigation
I will destroy you nation by nation

You were to be special you were chosen
Now here you are this world is broken
Planet earth was to be eden
But now this world is sick and bleeding

I condemn your arrogance
I blame your procrastination
The Twenty Five are now in place
End of negotiation


8. SACRIFICE

Could it really be that we all face the end of the world
The Human race no more

Are we ready to sit back and wait
For one mad man to seal the fate no more

Our families are paralysed with fear
Men of the world our time is near
As all we are comes to this final hour
We’ll fight for our children
That they might survive

Is there any kind of sacrifice
That you’d accept to pay the price to survive

Is there anything you’d contemplate
To change your mind about the fate of mankind

Massive war machines are moving in
This is a war we cannot win
And as humanity makes the final stand
We’ll fight for our children that they might survive

We must fight survive
Side by side
We must fight
Fight to survive
We must fight
Fight


9. BLACKWOOD

(Instrumental)


10. VIOLET SKY

What would you do if this was the end of the world
Would you hold on to me so tightly like the first time we met
I want to tell you how much my heart wants to sing
If this is the end of all time I would not change a thing

Won’t you take my hand, climb up the highest hill
We’ll sit there side by side watching the end of the world
We’ll watch the cities burn, we’ll watch the seas run dry
Make love for the last time, under a violet sky

What would we do if this was the end of the world
Would you run for your life, try to survive, would we want to know why
No! In our last moment, I need to feel your love
As I kiss you goodbye, a sapphire explodes in a violet sky

We’ll watch the deserts burn, watch the river run dry
See the cities fall, under a violet sky
And when the moment comes
I will hold you near,
Look into my eyes
We will feel no fear…….


11. XXV PART 2 : THE UNMAKERS AWAKE

All that you are
All you have done
Will now unravel
The countdown has begun
Take one last look
At all your mistakes
All of your triumphs
Now seem out of place
For this is my mission and your destiny
So lift up your eyes and look to the sea

The Unmakers awake
