AVALON
Sully Erna – Laurie Cabot

A veil of sparkling white soothes and bathes me in the light
It fills me with the suns and visions of the ancient ones

Descend to me, and soothe my disarray
And so it’s done – Hear my words Avalon

Fields are swaying like dancers in the moonlight
Rivers filled with dreams – Unbroken and still promising

Descend to me, and soothe my disarray
And so it’s done – Hear my words Avalon

Warm inside – Open the way in
Float into the night – Embrace what’s to be
Avalon

7 YEARS
Sully Erna, Lisa Guyer, Tim Thereault

If there was no tomorrow, would you still remain the same?
Or live your life so shallow, and take it for granted everyday?
So take away tomorrow, and tell me again why we blame
Why we waste all our time with bullshit and pride
When time may not wait another day

So again, years go by and so many tears I cry
Now that we’re through, I’ll still honor you
And harmlessly swallow my pride

It’s time to fall away, it’s time to separate and maybe we’ll be alright
It’s time to fall away, and baby maybe we’ll be alright

Life is but the memories we’ve created
For others to remember you and celebrate our life

If all that we are, is all that we’ve been
These bridges were built in vane
Can we get to that place with dignity and grace
And live with all that remains?

It’s time to fall away, it’s time to separate and maybe we’ll be alright
It’s time to fall away, and baby maybe we’ll be alright

Life is but the memories we’ve created
For others to remember you in your life
Life is but the memories we’ve created
It’s time to fall away, It’s to separate and fly…

Seven years gone by
For seven years I’ve tried to make it,
but how long can I take it?
It’s time to fly – Seven years gone by

If there was no tomorrow would you still retain all your hate?
Or live your life with no one to spite, and free your spirit again

It’s time to fall away, it’s time to separate and maybe we’ll be alright
It’s time to fall away, and baby maybe we’ll be alright

Life is but the memories we’ve created
For others to remember you in your life
Life is but the memories we’ve created
It’s time to fall away, It’s to separate and fly…

Seven years gone by
For seven years I’ve tried to make it,
but how long can I take it?
It’s time to fly – Seven years gone by

BROKEN ROAD
Sully Erna

How many ways can you break my spirit down, again

I don’t know if I can say I’ve lived through everything
But I’ve walked this earth alone with bare feet broken in the snow
And my father said to me,
“It never seems to be a simple walk down an icy cold broken road”

Disgraced and ashamed – Afraid to walk the line again
Controlled for too many years but never once forgiven for my sins
And I never thought I’d say that I’m weaker today than I was yesterday, old man
But I’ll fight as I always fight with what’s inside of me
This warrior spirit inside of me!

I don’t know if I can say I’ve lived through everything
But I’ve walked this earth alone with bare feet broken in the snow
And my father said to me,
“It never seems to be a simple walk down an icy cold broken road”

Time after time – A man who couldn’t be a man
I’m alone but I’m alive - Been taught to believe what’s meant to be, will be.

SINNER’S PRAYER
Sully Erna

To love the right, yet do so wrong
To be the weak, yet burn to be so strong
Go rider – Although your ride has been through lies
Go rider – See your soul through the devil’s eyes

If I could live my life again
Would I live that life in sin?
Go rider – Go right into the night
Go rider – Now see your soul through a woman’s eyes

I am sinner – Hold my prayers up to the sun
I am sinner – Heavens closed for what I’ve done

What have I done?

I am sinner – Hold my prayers up to the sun
I am sinner – Heavens closed for what I’ve done

MY LIGHT
Sully Erna, Chris Lester

Here I am, what a nice place to be
I never thought I’d see the skies separate for me
And here I am, what a nice surprise
If only I had known what life was like on this side

You always bring me light, and you help me find my way
A gentle kiss goodnight is the innocence I crave

Here I am, humbled and amazed
This beautiful little miracle of life was gifted to me
And here I am, I never thought I’d say
If ever I could live my life again, I’d live it your way

You’ve always brought me life, and you’ve helped me find my way
A simple kiss goodnight is the innocence I crave
I’ll never waste your time, I’ll never cause you pain
I’ll love you all my life, I’ll love you everyday

Under the light you shine on me, I promise I will be there for you baby
I’d never wanna leave you anyway, you’ve become My Light
I cross my heart that’s in your hands, with hope that you’ll always be my best friend
I promise I will be there ‘til the end, you’ve become My Light

THE RISE
Sully Erna, Lisa Guyer, Tim Thereault, Chris Decato

Breathe deep - Bracing and strong - Coming alive
Take back all that is lost – Honor your pride
Generation!

Time stops – Silence is now – Moving around
Hands Raised – Fading to black – Fall to the ground

From within, you’ll begin to feel the rise!

Breathe Deep – Wind down – Reach back – Hear the sound – You will see

From within, you’ll begin to feel the rise!

That which is like, unto itself is drawn

UNTIL THEN… (featuring Irina Chirkova)
Sully Erna

Lye awake and watching you run through my head
I’m alone again, but not for long my friend
We face another day, and distance has come and taken you far away again
But I’ll see you soon my friend, and then I’ll sing you my song

I can’t go home alone again
No I can’t my friend, until then…

Eyes I recognize, taking me back – familiar to me from some other time
Or maybe another life
Remember our times and know who I am
The memory stays until we can breathe as one again
And I’m coming back my friend, and then I’ll sing you my song

Oh yeah – And I can’t go home alone again
No I can’t go home all alone again
No I can’t go home all alone again
No I can’t my friend, until then…

THE DEPARTED
Sully Erna, Lisa Guyer, Niall Gregory

To think beyond what you could think - And feel beyond what you can feel
To see beyond what can be seen - And be beyond what we believe, oh yeah

I know you know something - So many miles and miles away

In separation we come together
It never ends - change has just become
Believing as we release the departed

To know what no one else could know - A way into the unexplained, oh yeah
Redeem my soul into my body - And to think my souls been damned again and again and again

I know you know something - So many miles and miles away
Why can’t we do better? - As the line between begins to fade

In separation we come together
It never ends - change has just become
Believing as we release the departed

Trying to be higher than I am - Trying to see beyond what I can

EYES OF A CHILD
Sully Erna, Ryan Starr

Light the flame – Hands are turning away
Restless souls are crying to release them from the pain
They can’t take the pain

Time’s so wasted – It wastes away
Ressurect me Jesus Christ, I’m so lonely for you
Hear the children cry, but one by one they die
Can’t you help them? Look what we’ve done to ourselves

The eyes of a fallen child
Taking away the innocence of life
Deliver me – Deliver me out from this pain
And I will live through you again, through the eyes of a child

Down pouring rain – But death comes a shame we look away
And feel the stains of blood-soaked tears made from their fears
Helpless ones – All alone – Why don’t we stand by their side?

The eyes of a fallen child
Taking away the innocence of life
Deliver me – Deliver me out from this pain
And I will live through you again, through the eyes of a child
