II. Ride The Lightning
Lift - Lift me high Teach me why I've been born in a world of pain So confused in a masquerade Some give a smile while they hold a blade So I rain - so far away Night turned to desolation days Raining down - so out of phase Then came the silver lightning days
High as the winds of yesterday As the mountains melt away While we're walking on a wire Lost in a world that's worlds away We will ride the lightning day As we set our souls on fire Ride it out Ride the lightning
Race - Race the sky Wind me up Get all cranked on the world stage That north wind buzzin' by Find yourself in a corporate high But you're crackin' up Breaking down Your best friends have all left you now There's no stance left to take Maybe it was all just a big mistake
High as the winds of yesterday As the mountains melt away While we're walking on a wire Lost in a world that's worlds away We will ride the lightning day As we set our souls on fire Let's ride it out Ride the lightning
III. Black Gold
There is no place too hot To mine the blackest gold You gave her birth And now you watch her growing old If life is leaving tomorrow We'll turn our backs to all sorrow And in a dancing ghost town That's the end of story
You watch the crops keep dying And people pray for rain Seeing all the blood and blackness Running in her veins In desert towns lies the panic The piercing sun beats satanic And still we're drowning in a flood That sees no end
The river flows - Black as gold That river glows - Taint your soul (repeat x1)
And so the king of karma lost his only son You haven't lived in full Until you've tried that once The sacrifice is just massive The hurt is fast and aggressive If you unearth the darkness You must pay the price!
The river flows - Black as gold That river glows - Taint your soul (repeat x1)

Many days I've wondered far and wide It's just me and my pride This planet's so wide and there's nowhere to hide From myself
And many moons I've gazed on High and low While I'm searching my soul This land is so vast yet I still see my past In myself
As I look to the sky in wonder At this mystical map that we're under
What should I do now and where do I find how To find myself define myself
As I walk this road will I ever Find that solution to my resolution And as I take each step will there be that Real comprehension of my redemption
What should I do now and where do I find how To find myself Define myself...
V. Desolation Days
High on a hill there sits a man Who is watching himself Wondering what is the truth he lives inside Breaking asunder His castle melts into sand He sits in the wreckage he made with his Own hands
Out of the cry of every pain From the realm of doubt and shame Where we sink in dust and mire There in our desolation days Where the heart sick human race Seeks to fill its own desires We can ride it out Ride the lightning
Where are you now? Are you just grasping for gold rings while you can Hoping to make it into fulfillment land But it's never coming Not that way my friend But there is still time You can change your life again
Out of the cry of every pain From the realm of doubt and shame That's where God will life us higher There in our desolation days From the well of wisdom's place We will drink our true desire And all will be made right Just ride the lightning
VII. Ride The Lightning (Reprise)
High as the winds of yesterday As our fear is washed away We'll be walking through the fire There on the mountain we will sing As His life fills everything We will live our true desire Let's ride it out Ride the lightning
