Queensryche - Rage For Order lyrics

What? You say you're through with me I'm not through with you We've had what others might call love You say it's over now What's done, what's through? You can't stay away, you need me I need you When the fire starts the pain's too much For your mind You need attention, what's good is only mine I can cure the hunger that burns in your heart Just come to me I'll take you home We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows You say you don't feel safe alone tonight Cause you feel the pressure building in your head Our secret's safe for one more night But when the morning comes remember I'll be with you We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows One day you'll be with me If only you believe... As you awoke this morning And opened up your eyes Did you notice the tear-stains Lining your face were mine Don't you wonder, can't you see What's happening to our lives I can't keep living this masquerade When my lonely eyes see only your face at night I only see in infrared I can't dream anymore Can't you see I need, too I can't stand the pain You've gathered all my secrets And I don't know who I am I even feel alone when you're near 'cause you'll never understand When we first met I must have seemed A million miles away It's strange how our lives have touched But the time is right I'll leave tonight Don't look in my eyes 'Cause you've never seen them so black I only see in infrared I can't dream anymore Can't you see I need to I can't stand the pain Cries from the aisles The tolling of the judgement bell Eyes watched the violence The absence of those who have Seen, marks the faith of the spell Cold is the viper Stalking the night for the heat It must find Time is the promise Delivered with stunning consistency Line after line, time after time The innocent victim awaits... Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Voices are calling me back Back to the day Footsteps had followed Me faster... listen Screams from a new love The pa**ion was burning, it singed in a stare Free under the night sun The fear of the hunger Will always be there in my mind Time after time the morning Will close a new page Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Follow the impulse you have I'll show you the way Forget what you've learned in the past now Listen and... I like to look at shadows sweating on the wall I get excited when I hear footsteps in the hall Outside your balcony I have a room with a view And I'm watching you I dial your telephone each and every afternoon I wait by your door till you're asleep at night And when you're alone I know when you Turn out the light I'm gonna get close to you Oh-Oh so close to you I'm gonna get close to you I'm gonna get close You fumble for your keys I'm six or seven steps behind you I'm so close to you Are you terrified of me? What do I know about you How did I find out? You think I'm a fool or maybe some kind of lunatic Say I'm wasting my time but I know what to do with it It's as plain as black and white I'm gonna get close to you Oh-Oh so close to you I'm gonna get close to you Oh so close If you knew my infinite charm There'd be no reason to be so alarmed Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right Maybe I'm some kind of lunatic You say I'm wasting all of my time But I know what to do with it It is plain as black and white I'm gonna get close to you Oh-Oh so close to you I'm gonna get close to you I'm like a hungry Criminal And your protection is minimal So minimal Wait for me I'll understand I just need time to comprehend your changes There's always been these changes in you I remember that there was a time when Fears we had we left behind and we danced But it seems the more we learn We learn that it's Over, over It's dangerous this game we play You're k**ing me with words Forget if you can The way you moved when our hands touched You forced me to force you Do you remember the dreams The nightmares we shared? The poison of love so pure it's deceiving And deceit is all we have it's got to be over Over, over It's dangerous this game we play You're k**ing me with words Over, over Too late to take a chance again it's over Now the wireless in my hand is ringing The distance of our lives keeps spreading The pounding of my heart, I'm not listening Your voice from far away is screaming it's over Over, over Too late to take a chance again It's over Over, over It's dangerous this game we play You're k**ing me, k**ing me Over, over You're too late to take a chance again It's over It's lonely in the field That we send our fighters to wander They leave with minds of steel It's their training solution We've programmed the way It leads us to order There's no turning back A Surgical Strike We've taught them not to feel Performance is their task A Surgical Strike Its time is arriving now for you The plan for the day Will be swift as the lightning they harness The atom display is not mindless illusion At master control, a**essment will not Be by humans-There's no turning back A Surgical Strike We've taught them not to feel Performance is their task A Surgical Strike Its time is arriving now for you Reach for a new horizon Setting sights on a circuit scream Hail the new arrival on Static signs from a distant wanderer Fill the air nights are never seen Face the electric time shock now No it's not a dream anymore I will light the way for us to find Order of a new kind Join us on the stay the road is mine Poets line in a rhyme of silence Gathered from the winter air Warms the children's eyes they see The time is near for the signs I can hear the chimes Ringing for you for me I can see your eyes Your hands joining with me I can feel its time Come together hold the light Keep the flame we can't let this world remain The same I can hear the chimes Ringing for you for me I can see your eyes Your hands joining with me I can feel it's time It's time for the world to hear Neue Regel is here LEAD ME- the leftist cry as the right subsides HEAR ME- the media mouth is open wide SAVE ME- success is our hunger we need to feed FREE ME- we will not lose to their anarchy! We are your leaders- We are rebellion! Aural supremists We are rebellion! We are future! SHOW ME- the wave of eighties is #3 PRAISE ME- our religion is technology CHANGE ME- alterations for the stigmatized HELP ME - for the cause. Would you cross that line? We are rebellion! Chemical youth scream We are rebellion If we don't stand together We stand to lose the future Peace won't last forever Who will be the martyr you or me? We can be the future You and I the leaders, Help me! If we don't stand together We stand to lose the future We are the last hope...but there's danger It was November 4th I last held your hand It seemed our time would last forever You said don't ever leave I thought you'd never go I wish I could just remember your name... You're just a memory now Like all the ones before But with your pain I've had to suffer Your eyes alight with flame As the picture burns I hear the screams from long ago They cry remember, blood-red streaks on Velvet throats at night The streetlights fanned our trail of fame Through London London The memories will never leave me London London All I see is you London London The cries in the night Keep bringing me to London London Calling out to me Oh there's some things in life I could never face The worst is being alone Sometimes I wish I could have taken your Place my love You know I don't want to live forever Oh let me see you standing in the Shadows once again We'll walk the streets like long ago in London London The fire in your eyes will be bringing me to London London All I need is you The cries in the night keep ringing on in London London Calling out to you I am the beat of your pulse The computer word made flesh We are one you and I We are versions of the same When you can see what I feel Don't turn your back on me Or you might find that your dreams Are only program cards Your mind is open for me Open for intake of all propaganda Your Eyes see now what to see My eyes see only the programs you give me I'll teach you to laugh and to cry They're really the same you'll see All of the why's in your life Are under my control Feed me more lines I will try to tell you all I can Before the light you must know what lies Behind my screams I can't tell you all I know Am I the son that you've always been wanting There's more to me than what shows Are you my father The one that was promised Hush now, I'll give all you need to know And pre-live your dreams for you You're a good boy Freedom belongs only to those Without video screens For eyes and mouth You have no voice To be heard my son No one can hear when you're Screaming in Digital I'm not your slave You can't control my emotions No Father, please let me keep learning Can't you see I'm human Can't you tell I'm not your slave Oh Father no Please don't keep me from dreaming Oh can't someone hear There's a cold wind out tonight The chill of distant eyes An orbit survey finds...your mind I will remember You will remember The star that came tonight... There's a thought that fills your mind A vision of time When knowledge was confined And then we wonder how machines Can steal each other's dreams From points that are unseen...It's real I will remember You will remember The star that came tonight When you gaze at the evening sky And you're reaching out with your mind You might see the nation's eyes Don't hide...It's you I will remember You will remember The star that came tonight Oh can't you see the light Of the knowing star
