Song lyrics
[edit]All lyrics written by Richard Warner.
- A life for a lyric
I've traveled these war lands deep
Raging the knights in shining armor
Surely death awaits the weak
I've sailed the viking vessels
Plunging the northern seas
Crossing the blue horizon
No land for the eye to see
For the eye to see
Raise your harp my friend
For the song that burns
In your heart
Sing of the heroes
And the days that time forgot
Sing of the days of the Earls
And the Kings and the Knights
That conquered great feats
For these are the things
That we all dream
But only your eyes have seen- The Gleeman
All songs written by Richard Warner & Thomas Youngblood, unless noted.
- We are playing with nature
Splitting the atom
Confusing religions
Killing the masses
We are not separate from what we destroy
Time has come for us to make the only choice- We Are Not Separate

Sail away, You'll find the promised land
In your hand, there is a New Millennium- Millennium
- There's a certain feeling you get at the moment you know you're the one
That sets the course of your own destiny
Controlled by you alone feel it rise inside your heart

- Rhydin is rising
Join us a new world is open
Rhydin is rising
Don't you know its a new kingdom
Its all there, its all there in your mind- Rhydin

- Dear Editor,
This is the Zodiac speaking.
I am back with you.
Tell Herb Caen I am here.
I have always been here.
That city pig, Toschi, is good, but I am both smarter and better.
He will get tired then leave me alone.
I am waiting for a good movie about me.
Who will play me?
I am now in control of all things.
Yours truly...- Dear Editor

- Necropolis
- The word "incubus" means "to lie on", and it was believed that any feeling in bed, such as a weight
pressing down on your chest, especially accompanied by nightmares, was a sure sign that an incubus had
attempted to have a nocturnal intercourse with you.
Given the religious fervor of the Middle Ages, it is not altogether surprising that the idea of a demon lover
was believed to account of this phenomenon.- Poetry for the Poisoned, Pt. I: Incubus

Your sorrow be gone
Show me how it feels to be alive
