Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall? It’s the time that every Santa has a ball Does he ride a red-nosed reindeer? Does a ton-up on his sleigh? Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is, Merry Christmas Everybody’s having fun Look to the future now It’s only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive? Are you sure you’ve got the room to spare inside? Does your granny always tell you That the old songs are the best? Then she’s up and rock-‘n’-rolling with the rest
So here it is, Merry Christmas Everybody’s having fun Look to the future now It’s only just begun
What will your daddy do when he sees your momma kissing Santa Claus?
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall? Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall? Do you ride on down the hillside In a buggy you have made? When you land upon your head then you’ve been slayed
So here it is, Merry Christmas Everybody’s having fun Look to the future now It’s only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas Everybody’s having fun Look to the future now It’s only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas Everybody’s having fun (It’s Christmas!) Look to the future now It’s only just begun

Like a wheel I keep on turning Straight ahead, it’s got me burning The melody — the dignity, Something is speaking to me Night is cold and my soul is battered Not afraid for the first time now that I realize We coincide, I’ll never belong to the tribe And a song is calling me to this ship of fools
[Chorus:] Been dying for a sign when faith has been on the line When you find your love on wasted grounds You’re taking to the sound, it’s shelter from the rain
No return from the way I’ve chosen, Cast away – chasing rainbows – condemn the lie And how could I make god believe I’m blind? We create by intuition, call it fate — the tounge of angels in our soul Feel it resound and carry you over the grind All that’s left is a song giving shelter from the rain
[Chorus]
It’s a dark and stormy night, Ain’t it funny what it takes to read the signs? But I’m always there, I am the footprints to your right Man overlooks when riding high, young and blind In your darkest lonely night, heed a voice to take you higher Take you higher As you stumble through the ruins, let the spirit take you higher, and a soul

What if I would script a dream? And if I’d let you in? I’d be your door out of a stark truth…
Leave a stark reality An arrant giveness I’d make you fall to be there for you
Let Morpheus commit his spark To a stray soul wandering Errant in the dark
Chase your dream! If you don’t mind don’t be astounded By the things they make you do For amusement’s sake Chase your dream! When all comes breaking down around it What a day for a pastel dream That’s coming to life…
Beautiful in colour United in their creed Reasonable people dreaming ordinary dreams
Rise above confusion And leverage the weak Dive into the shuffle And then tap into the freak show
And Morpheus commits his spark To a plain soul wandering, errant in the dark
Chase your dream! If you don’t mind don’t be astounded By the things they make you do For amusement’s sake Chase your dream! When all comes breaking down around it What a day for a pastel dream That’s coming to life…
May it charm the living May it ease misgiving Intoxicating, dazing Rapture of the shallow Dazed and captured
Say you wanna be now Sneak into their dream now Suck up to their love You’re the master of their freakshow Give into temptation Seek and bring salvation Mine now, Suburbia! Tomorrow it’s the nation
Wait for a savior Rising from the tranquil sea The book of shallows Bringing forth a common dream
Going with the grain Numb the pain We are common sense Knock them down a peg Make them beg for deliverance Rapture of the deep, they believe Take a deep bow Give them what they need now Mingle with the creep show
Going with the grain Numb the pain We are common sense Knock them down a peg Make them beg for deliverance Rapture of the deep, they believe Take a deep bow Give them what they need now Mingle with the creep show
Wait for a savior Rising from the tranquil sea The book of shallows Bringing forth a common dream
Let Morpheus commit his spark To a stray soul wandering in the dark
Chase your dream! If you don’t mind don’t be astounded By the things they make you do For amusement’s sake
Chase your dream When all comes breaking down around it What a day for a pastel dream That’s goin’ to plan
Chase your dream! If you don’t mind don’t be astounded By the things they make you do For amusement’s sake
Chase your dream When all comes breaking down around it What a day for a pastel dream That’s goin’ to plan What a day for a pastel dream That’s goin’ to plan

Now you all know The bards and their songs When hours have gone by I’ll close my eyes In a world far away We may meet again But now hear my song About the dawn of the night Let’s sing the bards’ song
Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards’ songs will remain Tomorrow will take it away The fear of today It will be gone Due to our magic songs
There’s only one song Left in my mind Tales of a brave man Who lived far from here Now the bard songs are over And it’s time to leave No one should ask you for the name Of the one Who tells the story
Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards’ songs will remain Tomorrow all will be known And you’re not alone So don’t be afraid In the dark and cold ‘Cause the bards’ songs will remain They all will remain
In my thoughts and in my dreams They’re always in my mind These songs of hobbits, dwarfs and men And elves Come close your eyes You can see them too

I am god The only one I will bring back Freedom to your heart You won’t believe That blind can’t see No one else before me ever knew The way to paradise For another bloody crime I shall return
I am your light on through the night
Why am I born Will I fail to rise again Another Crucifixion for Another holy war Can’t stop what’s going on [Repeat]
Sooner or later you must understand My words bring freedom And rescue for man What else, To call me your Messiah Oh, I wish there could be another way Cross and nails are already prepared
My sell out Waits till I’m crucified I will die before my vision ends
Why am I born Will I fail to rise again Another Crucifixion for Another holy war Can’t stop what’s going on
Wait for the dawn To take me away What will be if I fail Another golden calve Never, never ending Pain and agony Hit me, nail me make me god
Why am I born Will I fail to rise again Another Crucifixion for Another holy war Can’t stop what’s going on [Repeat]
