The Betrayed - The Guardian

As the bright sun slowly sinks, at the end of another day
I turn for home, but I can't find my way.
Lost in a jungle of ignorance and hate.
Somebow this darkness tells me I'm too late.

Then on the breeze, I hear you voice and it say.

Chorus
"Oh whistle and I'll come to you my lad,
I'm here for you when thing seems so bad.
I will watch over, I am at you side,
In your darkest days I will gently guide".

I've fought this fight 'til I can't fight no more,
So desolate I can no longer understand
I feel so isolated like I'm standging alone,
Rejected for casting the first stone.

Chorus
As time slips away, night turns to day,
Surely there must be some other way.
All I've every done without ever wanting glory,
But I have reached the last page of this story.

Chorus

But flicking somewhere in the back of my mind
Are seeds of redemption unchalenged, unsigned
There on the wind maybe I heard your words,
So I turn and rise up and gather my sword.

Chorus

The Betrayed - Rain down on me

I feel the drop lets soaking my skinn,
Feel the blood pumping from within
Standing out in the pouring rain
Purging my boy, the Gods steal my pain

Chorus:
Rain, raine down on me
Blood of the Gods, set me free



The wounds heal but the memory remains
The rain it cleanses, but the blood it staind
In my mind there's a glorious vision
OF an empire built when the phoenix has risen

Chorus

Some run and hide when the storm breaksThe thunder roars and the lighting sakes
Why I seel affinity to the pouring rain
It's something U just can't explain

Chors
Bleed with me, cry with the Gods,
See it out against all odds
Feel this power of natures ways
It's coming soon so cout the days

The Betrayed - Mr. Media

Have you turned on you TV, lately
Or listen to the radio?
Always the same media friendly,
Oh, what a way to go.
Just like the blind leading the blind,
You're gonna follow just lie sheep.
While you believe them and their kind,
They ain't losing any sleep

Chorus
Newspaper, television or radio,
It's all just a one ma show,
What you can hear, what you can see,
It's their master plan, believe me

The electric tube in the corner
Is spewing out those media lies
So listen up I'm trying to warn ya,
Before too many brain cells die.
So don't listen to the bullshit
It's just part of the plan
To brainwash you to believe it
Keep you in the palm of their hands

Chorus

Come on boy wake yourself up,
See through these media lies.
What do I have to say to you,
To open up your eyes
This is the last wake up call,
This time it's do or die.
Come on now it's stand or fall,
And here is the reason why.

The Betrayed - I'm own my man

You people think you understand me
Think you know what makes tick
Well I tell you, you have no idea
And people like you make me sick

Chorus
I'm my own man
So you say you can read me like a book,
And know what's written on the next page
Do you know why I won't give you a second look

You motherfuckers make me spit with rage.

Chorus

What makes you think that you understand me,
And can secon guess my every move.
Well you're just gonna have to wait and see,
'cause to you I got nothing to prove.

Chorus

So don't think that you'll every work it out,
No don't you ever take me for a fool
You've never ever know what I'm all about,
Protect, strike out, protect is my number one rule

The Betrayed - I will bleed for you

Well I see you all around me,
I see apathy in your eyes
Knowing not what it means to be free
Watching as the white flame dies
It means nothing to you,
Pride is an unknown trait
Tell me what are you gonnda do?
Run and hide of face the hate?

Chorus:
To every man who doesn't dream, I am the dreamer
To every man who doesn't believe, I'm the believer
To every man who doesn't recieve, I'm the receiver
To every man who refuse to bleed, I will bleed for you

So you're walking roun in circles
Burying your head in the sand
Watching but not caring
While they rape your land
Turning your face to the wall
Living in a second class world
While the valiant stand and fall.You just do as you're told

Chorus

Tell me how do you live with yourself,
Hang your head in shame
have no pride in your heritage
Or no pride in your name
I am glad that I am not like you
And know my children are proud of me
Fir while yours have to suffer too,
Mine know I will always foight to be free

Chorus

The Betrayed - The warrior peace, the warrior death

Calling to me in the heat of the night
Voices of the fallen, those who fell in flight
They spur me on, the wind beneath my wings.
Showing me the way and the gory in brings.

Chorus

The crystal vision, when I close my eyes,
Is the warrior peace as the warrior ies.
He's fought for this moment with every breath
It's the warrior peace, it's the warrior death.

At night I ride with the gohsts of glories past,
Like the heroes of Stalingrad, heroes to the last.
Men who died with honour, men who died with pride.
Men who dies as brothers die, side by side.

Chorus

I close me eyes again and I see my own face,
And all around me burning wreaths are in place
Yet I feel no regret and I feel no fear,
I know me greatest triumph is finally here.

Chorus
