Between the velvet lies
There’s a truth that’s hard as steel-yeah
The vision never dies
Life’s a never ending wheel
– Holy Diver
*
You’re just a picture – just an image caught in time
We’re a lie – you and I
We’re words without a rhyme
– Rainbow in the Dark
*
Hanging from the cobwebs in you mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I guess I never heard it, never heard it all
– Straight Through the Heart
*
We pray to someone
But when it’s said and done
It’s really all the same
With just a different name
– We Rock
*
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone’s screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
– Man on the Silver Mountain
*
Kneel and behold your new king
Digital dreams
And wonderful things to tease you
– Killing the Dragon
*
All the smiling faces
Promising the sun
Another way of breaking you down
– Feed My Head
*
If you listen to fools
The mob rules
– The Mob Rules
*
The world is full of kings and queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
– Heaven and Hell
