Total Eclipse
(Harris/Murray/Burr)
Cold as steel the darkness waits,
it's hour will come
A cry of fear for the chosen
worshipping the sun
Mother natures black revenge
on those who waste her life
War babies in the garden of Eden
shall turn our ashes to ice
Sunrise is gone, freezing up the fires
Sunrise is gone, numbing all desires
Sunrise is gone, Sunrise is gone
Around the world the people stop
with terror-stricken eyes
A shadow cast upon them all
to crush them like a fly
In the icy rain and whiplashed seas
there's nowhere left to run
The hammer blows of winter fall
like a hurricane
Around the world the nations wait
for some wise words from their leading light
You know it's not only madmen
who listen to fools
"Is this the end" the millions cried
clutching their riches as they died
Those who survive must weather the storm
Gone are the days when man looked down
They've taken away his sacred crown
To be so free, it took so long
It's not the journeys end, it's just begun
