EMERALD LADY Glass/Wolfe A mystical presence . . . she’s a magical prize You find yourself drawn to those emerald eyes They can see inside you . . . the secrets that you hide Window to your soul has been thrown open wide There’s no salvation . . . nowhere left to hide

When you least expect it . . . beneath the midnight moon Feel the vibe in the air . . . the end is coming soon

Surrender the night . . . promise of paradise Emerald Lady . . . she’s passion with a price

Vision of Venus . . . epitome of love Can’t see the evil hand inside the velvet glove Passion’s folly is now deception’s gain You know there is no pleasure . . . not without the pain Her body’s made for love . . . but should you be so bold To take her in your arms . . . danger will unfold Flirting with fate . . . the truth will soon be told

When you least expect it . . . beneath the midnight moon Feel the vibe in the air . . . the end is coming soon

Surrender the night . . . promise of paradise Emerald Lady . . . she’s passion with a price Surrender the night . . . you are fair game Emerald Lady . . . her love you’ll never tame

You ask “What happened to the girl that I once knew?” She is now dead, the murderer is you So this is now where it stands . . . you have the answer - the blood is on your hands

Wind is howling . . . you must heed her call She knows just what she wants . . . she’s gonna take it all Tried hard to warn you . . . you don’t seem to learn Drawn into her power . . . nowhere else to turn Caught in a deadly game . . . yet for her you yearn

When you least expect it . . . beneath the midnight moon Feel the vibe in the air . . . the end is coming soon

Surrender the night . . . promise of paradise Emerald Lady . . . she’s passion with a price Surrender the night . . . you are fair game Emerald Lady . . . her love you’ll never tame Surrender the night . . . you’ve lost all control Emerald Lady . . . owns you body and soul

RISE ABOVE Glass/Wolfe

Should have seen it coming from the inception The lies, the bullshit and all the deception I’m tired of you trying to bring me down Time to get out before I drown

I’m gonna turn the tables . . . pay back when I’m able

Chorus I will rise above adversity You can try, but you’ll never break me I will rise above it all I may stumble, but you’ll never see me fall

A little respect is all I ask from you Some compensation for all I do You take and you take but give nothing in return Just thinking about it really makes me burn

I’m gonna turn the tables . . . pay back when I’m able

*Chorus

I’ve seen the way you try to exert control By breaking my heart and destroying my soul I’m gonna show you that I will be strong Then you’ll know that you’re treating me wrong

I’m gonna turn the tables . . . pay back when I’m able

*Chorus (2X)

I will rise above Above . . .

EPISODE 1 - DESTINY Bright-eyed girl with so many dreams . . . things are not always what they seem Sacrificed for the alliance . . . destined to be the Queen of France Never away from home before . . . wed to a weekling and a bore Seven years and still a virgin . . . grand spending is your diversion

Sent away for the good of your country . . . naive child, future Queen of Tragedy Naive child . . . future Queen of Tragedy

EPISODE 2 - DISILLUSIONMENT Isolation, it feels so cruel . . . you find you are the source of ridicule The marriage has you in dispair . . . until the time you have an heir The nation, it is in proverty . . . while you are spending so lavishly Your spending, it breeds resentment . . . you are the scapegoat for their discontent

They see your life is one big party . . . your favorites prosper, Queen of Tragedy Avoiding all responsiblity . . . selfish existence, Queen of Tragedy

EPISODE 3 - TURMOIL A necklace purchased in your name . . . but no one sees you without blame Now things have swung out of control . . . the public demands your blood, your soul A failed escape, it seals your fate . . . the attempt was made much too late In your palace a prisoner . . . set to face the executioner

On the road to ruin but you don’t see . . . Madame Deficit, Queen of Tragedy No allies in a court full of enemies . . . hated foreigner, Queen of Tragedy The king is tried and they find him guilty . . . his last night’s with the Queen of Tragedy

EPISODE 4 - JUDGMENT You are so strong until the day . . . they come to take your son away They fill his head with lies so vile . . . that surface against you at your trial The speech you give moves all around . . . but death’s the verdict that’s handed down Now all alone, you face the truth . . . shadow of the blade looms over you

Sentenced to death, you get no sympathy . . . no love lost for the Queen of Tragedy To the scaffold, ill fated family . . . no escape for the Queen of Tragedy Trying to retain your strength and dignity . . . end is here for the Queen of Tragedy

In the end you met your destiny . . . forever known as the Queen of Tragedy

RUBICON Glass/Wolfe

In the shadows of yesterday’s dawn . . . a line in the sand has now been drawn Time for bargaining is long past . . . stakes are too high the dye has been cast

Time to prepare for the attack . . . it’s clear there can be no turning back At the river we’ll make our stand . . . feel our thunder across the land

Bound by honor to fight at dawn . . . ruthless ambition drives us on

Chorus Crossing the river, thousands strong . . . live or die, we’re marching on Crossing the river to meet our fate . . . vanquish those we’re told to hate

The army will go where they are led . . . they would die for the man at their head He can’t resist the reigns of power . . . he plans to make his rival cower

Soldiers miss home and family . . . but they’re bound by threads of destiny Hope to make it home alive . . . battle tests their will to survive

Bound by honor to fight at dawn . . . ruthless ambition drives us on

*Chorus

Winds of change signal the coming of war Soldiers of fortune take their place upon the shore

In a field littered with faceless souls . . . two generals wrestle for control For one, the battle’s fought in vain . . . the victor will never be the same

Onto the pages of history . . . will be recorded this victory To those still alive he makes a vow . . . nothing can stand in his way now

Bound by honor to fight at dawn . . . ruthless ambition drives us on

*Chorus

SECOND SIGHT Glass/Wolfe

Have you ever been lonely . . . in a crowded room? Have you ever had second sight . . . forshadowing of doom?

Sea of faces . . . seemingly benign I can’t find my way . . . give me a sign

Have you ever reached out your hand . . . to find there’s no one there? Have you ever asked yourself . . . “Why should I care”?

Have you ever been lonely . . . in a crowded place? Have you ever looked for kindness . . . and couldn’t find a trace?

Sea of faces . . . seemingly benign I can’t find my way . . . give me a sign Sea of faces . . . won’t look me in the eye

Have you ever looked at someone . . . wondered what they’re after? Do you find yourself questioning . . . even their laughter?

Sea of faces . . . seemingly benign I can’t find my way . . . give me a sign Sea of faces . . . seemingly benign . . . look me in the eye

Look me in the eye

REFLECTIONS Glass/Wolfe

There’s an emptiness inside my heart . . . your love once filled There’s no way to replace it . . . without you in the world I know you didn’t want to leave . . . didn’t have a choice Heaven’s called you home again . . . angels rejoice

Reflections of a time, seems so long ago Reflections of a time when I loved you so But now you’re out of reach . . . why did you have to go?

I gotta pick up the pieces . . . of my shattered life Try ‘n get beyond the pain . . . cuts like a knife

Reflections of a time, seems so long ago Reflections of a time when I loved you so But now you’re out of reach . . . why did you have to go? I need you so

There’s an emptiness inside my heart . . . your love once filled There’s no way to replace it . . . without you in the world I know it’s only a matter of time . . . my heart will mend But in the meantime . . . I can’t pretend

Reflections of a time, seems so long ago Reflections of a time when I loved you so Reflections . . . so long ago How to carry on . . . I don’t know

CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE Glass/Wolfe

Under the strain . . . I hide my pain Won’t let anyone hurt me again

Victim of crime . . . I’ve done my time And I’ll never be the same

Shots from all over I need to run for cover I’m caught in the crossfire

Once barely alive . . . used my will to survive Had to call upon my drive

You can turn your back . . fade into black And wait for help to arrive

Shots from all over I need to run for cover I’m caught in the crossfire Shots from all sides No place to run and hide I’m caught in the crossfire

(solo)

Shots from all over I need to run for cover I’m caught in the crossfire Shots from all sides No place to run and hide I’m caught in the crossfire Shots from all over I need to run for cover I’m caught in the crossfire

FREE TO FLY Glass / Wolfe

The bond is broken . . . what I thought was there Gone forever more . . . I no longer care

There’s no more to say except for goodbye I guess in the end . . . your price was too high

I still have my pride . . . I’m strong inside

The trust has died . . . it’s clear that you lied The trust has died . . . you’re free to fly

I’m bound by honor . . . to take care of you Above and beyond . . . what others do Sometimes it’s so hard . . . more than I can take Old habits die hard . . . they’re so hard to break

There’s no more to say except for goodbye I guess in the end . . . your price was too high

I still have my pride . . . I’m strong inside

The trust has died . . . it’ clear that you lied The trust has died . . . you’re free to fly

You’re trying to lay this . . . guilt trip on me But I’m not a fool . . . and will never be

Now I know the price your friendship has cost Now you feel the void . . . what you have lost

I still have my pride . . . I’m strong inside

The trust has died . . . it’s clear that you lied The trust has died . . you’re free to fly
