Through the door a blinding light
A cool breeze a sudden fright
A hidden room a sterile grip
A nightmare a bad trip
They’ve got me trapped I must get free
They’ve picked apart my memories
The smell of bleach a sterile room
Into my flesh away they peel
A stellar lab a high tech ship
They’ve got me trapped within their grip
I must escape I must get out
But I’m being watch without a doubt
They’ve got me here against my will
Have they seen enough have they had their fill
Probing deep inside my mind
I still don’t know what they hope to find
I want to yell I have to scream
I want to end this horrid dream
Why me what do they want
What have I done to earn this haunt
These gray ghouls from the stars
Have been watching us from afar
They here under the knife
They won’t be done without my life
Through the door a blackened room
A warm breeze a stuffy tomb
Back on earth in the woods
Without a thought alone I stood
I don’t know what has happened here
The scars seem gone but I swear they’re here

Brew
The witches gathered around the pot
Dressed all in black a gothic lot
Stirring with care their purple stew
Bringing to a boil their wicked brew
And when they sense their spell is done
They’ll set it lose and have some fun
At night by the crypt it’ll happen quick
An unsuspecting town now in their grip
Creaking groaning the living dead
Leaving the town filled with dread
Try as they will they can’t get free
The witches watch and cackle with glee
An ancient hex sealed away
Broken open the end of days
Restless souls unearthed to feed
They move around but they don’t bleed
An army of bones sent to kill
Soulless husks devoid of will
They crowd the streets in search of food
The smell of death aids the wretched mood
[Chorus]
The moon above casts a pale blue light
As the people bellow run in fright
The task at hand is nearly done
But the reign of death has just begun
For the last few folks theirs no escape
The last survivors accept their fate
The sun comes up the town is bare
No evidence of what happened there
Empty barren the town is dead
But standing here I’m filled with dread
With the spell on the loose no one’s free
The witches know and they cackle with glee
Creaking groaning the living dead
Leaving the town filled with dread
Try as they did they couldn’t get free
The witches watched and cackled with glee

Flip the switch a surge of might
Turning gears my inner light
A man machine a metal being
Iron hands devoid of feeling
100 years frozen still
Left to rust against my will
A century lost to me
Left alone they left me be
In my crypt I’ve turned to ice
But now they’ll know I’ve risen twice
100 years frozen still
Left to rust against my will
100 years out of the light
Time at last to renew the fight

Far above, far away
But close enough, I have to stay
Beneath my reach, the Earth below
But I feel the pull, I can’t go
I’m stuck, in a rut, and I can’t touch the ground
I’m pinned, to this spot, going round and round
Through good, and bad, you’re all that I’ve had
Without your grasp, I doubt I could last
I know you well, but I know you can’t tell
I know what’s wrong, but I’m just not that strong
[Chorus]
I know full well, but I try not to dwell
I’ll take a peek, and remember I am weak
It’s a pain to care, when all I do is stare
But I need to know, I want to see you grow
[Chorus]
I’ll wait and watch, you’ll be in my thoughts
But I can’t help but feel, this isn’t quite real
I want to be, just want you need
But I’m stuck up here, too far but so near
