ELOY Lyrics for Destination:
CD: Destination:
1
Sudden vibes awaken deep inside
Words and sounds that
Echo in the night
It's like an animal
it's aboriginal
So unemotional
it's taking over all your senses
Refrain
Don't be afraid
(for) you must obey
the tug of the call of the wild
don't hesitate
no chance to escape
follow the call of the wild
it's something you can't deny
it's ruling all your senses
Deep down you know
how to enjoy
feeling the call of the wild
Br.
Open the door of the cage
that's been holding you prisoner
and living a lie
and silence follows your cry
2.
Pungent is the danger in the air
Vibrant notions reach
from everywhere
it feels so natural
So very physical
a little virginal
at last you're tearing
down all fences
Br.
Now that you're sharing
the cradle of wisdom
and daring to reach for the skies
a silence follows your cry
...........................................................
Racing Shadows
There's nowhere left to hide
from the fatman and his lies
a TV-puppet-politician
He thinks his words so fine
great, important, and divine
a 20th century magician
in reality he's nothing but a shark
He appears to be a shadow in the dark
He's making rules and laws
to satisfy his greedy paws
He's got this art down to perfection
Ideals improvised
what's good for him is legalised
for he's the leader of the nation
but a dog that bites
will seldom ever bark
all his slogans fade to nothingness
for he is but a shadow in the dark
Every step they take
Every move they make
Everything is fake
just an illusion
madmen rise and fall
many heads may roll
but they don't care at all
and sow confusion
Their perverted schemes
are reaching their peak
insanity reigns
Simple parasites,
they feed off the weak
possessing their brains
undercover of the titles they hold
that makes them so bold
Another blindman trips and falls
and deaf men cannot hear at all
they smile towards
their self destruction
yes-men nod and bow their heads
could own their own minds but instead
they're just like puppets of corruption
and thwey play their game while corpses
pave their way
and they'll force a smile
until the day the racing shadows
finally fade away
There's fire burning in our hearts
it throws a light upon their dubious talk
Let the fire burn
to disclose all their lies
let them plat their games
but be true to yourself
and the flames will rage
until the day
the racing shadows finally fade away
...........................................................
Destination
1
Since ancient history
it's been a mystery
why we can't escape
from the force
of our destination
2
We turn another key
but still we fail to see
every move we make
is a part
of our destination
Br.
While you're convinced that
you're the one who's in control
fate has predefined
if you will reach your goal
you're heading on a course that
you can't change at all
Refrain
Go ahead and set your spirit free
find your harmony and let it be
all emotions are unleashed
inside your heart
Listen to your secret
dreams inside
Let your deepest senses
be your guide
Trust your destiny: you're walking
hand in hand
for there is no road
the road appears
which ever way you go
3
Too many questions cry
too many answers lie
You can't understand
that you're called
to your destination
4
The power you set free
can't break the mystery
You are not aware
what you choose
is your destination
Br
You always wonder what you'll be
and who you are
Secrets unexplained
life seems so bizarre...ah!
and every turn you
make your fate
calls from afar
Refrain
Br.
All the times when you
have doubts inside
that try stop you climbing higher
disregard the whispers
in your mind
they're just lying
Refrain
...........................................................
Prisoner In Mind
1
Information that unwinds
take control of your blinded mind
hypnotised & mesmerised
leave the world behind
Pre Chorus
Your life is banned by the screen
demanded by the machine
unaware of it's might
visual animation:
a surrogate delight
Chorus
Insane, in vain
flipping like a pin-ball
in a crazy game
so blind, no mind
stepping out of line
2
The dreams you left alone
have long ago turned to stone
'coz the idol you adore
has no flesh nor bone
Pre Chorus
Beware you prisoner in mind
Your ruler creeps from behind
and you won't notice at all
his slow manipulation
at last'll make you fall
Chorus
Insane, in vain
flipping like a pin-ball
in a crazy game
so blind, no mind
tripping in the shadows
stepping out of line
...........................................................
Silent Revolution
1
An inaudible sound
in the midst of the night
breaks the silence of dreams
announcing a revolution
2
Anger and hatred
against the oppressor
are ruling your spirit
that's crying for absolution
Ready to break
through the barricades
you slowly become
like a renegade
on the run
3
Consciousness grows
like a great wheel on fire
deep inside rebel minds
denying all regulations
4
Hovering over
the weeds of society
as the sirens are wailing
the onset of revelations
Over the ages the
seed's been sown
how germinating
rebellion's grown
everywhere
The silent majority runs amok
you suddenly feel
an electric shock
in the air
Oceans of minds
lost in the maze of our times
Now gather round
ready to reunite
reunite
Unexpectedly
growing steadily
in the shadows of secrecy
there's a power source
emanating force
in a gale of resistance
all around
Now your blood boils inside
feel your pulse running fast
there's no way to delay
the moment of resolution
Push aside all the fears
and ignore all the rules
we're approaching the start of
the countdown of revolution
Kids
We are the future race
it's our rightful place
to make all the changes
we know to be due
a better new world is at hand
Can you remember when
you were much younger then
you looked at the world
through your innocent eyes
and life was a game you played
Answer
Yes I remember well:
I was so bold and no,
nobody's fool
but they corrected that
in the days I spent in school
Kids
Look at the mess you made
We're in an awful state
It wasn't your right to
destroy our world
a foolish and terrible crime
We're gonna take control
We're gonna change it all
We need no permission
to do what is right
the future is in our hands
...........................................................
Fire & Ice
The values you believe in
the dreams you're living for
once more are shattered by thunder
distorted pictures appear
steered by an evil force
that's slowly dragging you under
a living nightmare wakes
you in the night
you feel the ground crumbling
under your feet
you feel a cold sweat
running down your spine
it leaves you searching
for a secret retreat
Each time you climb a mountain
you see the world below
it's chaos tears you asunder
you try to keep your balance
you try to stay in tune
it leaves you no time to wonder
vibrating senses shaking you inside
a timeless moment spent
recalling your dream
Lost in confusion running in the dark
you see your road is coming
back into sight
Now your vision is clear
all your doubts dissappear
and you're asking yourself
is this heaven or hell
Like a storm in the night
all emotions alight
and you try to disguise
you feel the fire and ice
Reaching out for your aim
Yet a pawn in the game
while you try to rebel
against heaven and hell
(all?)(in) the moments of strife
on the tight-rope of life
and your spirit still cries
torn between fire and ice
In a labyrinth of nightmares
you run an endless race
down a tunnel with no end
while you're running in the darkness
your heart is pounding faster
you discover a light
shining so bright
shining bright up ahead
...........................................................
Eclipse Of Mankind
Wasted tears of sadness fall
on an acid ground
there's no vision left to realise
self destruction all around
We ignored the danger
all warnings left unheard
to return it's too late
bound to our fate
we feel like a flightless bird
There's no hope, no future
all (our) (true) values slain
meanless words to disperse our fear
empty promises drown in pain
All honest feeling
are caught in chains
we believed all the lies
now pay the price
despair flowing through our reins
In a world of madness
ruled by war and crime
where violence cries
for more sacrifice
quite at home in perverted rhymes
We pray for rescue
but all in vain
no tomorrow for change
for the future is now
as only little time remains
Vanity and pride
brought blindness in strife
true values held in hide
still burning inside
captured in the claws of fear we enter
the eclipse of mankind
