JOHN WEST LYRICS

1. Soul Of The Beast


Cautious footsteps, watchful eyes
Life depends on caution
Every nerve aware, my Brother Bear

Hunter is hunted and so it goes
From my stand I've watched you
Mind to mind, one step behind

Step behind, it's always the same
You never can win if you don't play the game

Ancient forest, sun in the east
Colors of autumn, Soul of the Beast
Ancient spirit, provide the feast
Blood on my arrow is the Soul of the Beast
Soul of the Beast

I know these woods, each and every inch
Still, not as well as you, my friend
My worthy rival, you fight for survival

I have waited so many days
My inner thoughts for comfort
Won't give up now, I don't know how

I don't know how, it's always the same
I never can win if I don't play the game

Ancient forest, sun in the east
Colors of autumn, Soul of the Beast
Ancient spirit, provide the feast
Blood on my arrow is the Soul of the Beast

Ancient forest, sun in the east
Colors of autumn, Soul of the Beast
Ancient spirit, provide the feast
Blood on my arrow is the Soul of the Beast
Ancient forest, sun in the east
Colors of autumn, Soul of the Beast
Ancient spirit
Ancient forest
Ancient spirit
Soul of the Beast


2. When Worlds Collide


Crossed over to the spirit world
Was like walking through fire
Familiar faces all around me
Waiting to see me

We talk, but no one speaks
Shrouded in eerie, white bliss
This is what I have seen

When worlds collide - sound like thunder
When worlds collide - ocean of rain
When worlds collide

Walked amongst ghosts and men
I prefer the dark side
Specter, haunt me no longer
I am you now

We touch, but no one feels
Covered in Holy light
This is how it is

When worlds collide - sound like thunder
When worlds collide - ocean of rain
When worlds collide - sound like thunder
When worlds collide - ocean of rain

We talk, but no one speaks
Shrouded in eerie, white bliss
This is what I have seen

When worlds collide - sound like thunder
When worlds collide - ocean of rain
When worlds collide - sound like thunder
When worlds collide - ocean of rain

Ocean of rain

Worlds collide


3. Sleep Of The Dead


Anoint my body, say the words and lay me in my grave
Death was creeping for so long, there's nothing they could save

Returned to the Earth
The place of my birth

Wrap me in my funeral shroud, put coins upon my eyes
Burning sage will let your prayers ride smoke into the skies

Returned to the womb
Once vibrant, no entombed

The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down
The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down

Bury my body, reform my soul

Anoint my body, say the words and lay me in my grave
Death was creeping for so long, there's nothing they could save

Returned to the womb
Once vibrant, no entombed

The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down
The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down
The Dark Sleep of the Dead will press you down
The Dark Sleep of the Dead will pressure you down


4. Stand, Sentinel


For two hundred years I have watched the view from this exact spot
Once surrounded by my brothers, now I stand alone
One by one they have fallen, first to the fire, then by axe and saw
Machines have sped my loneliness... so much progress?

When you receive the mark of man, you know
You haven't long in this world, oh

Stand, sentinel, stand
Seen the progress of man, progress of time
For two hundred years, vision, my tears
Oh stand, sentinel, stand
Now I have the mark

Tired limbs stretched out towards the Sun
Will tomorrow's dawn be my last?
I can barely breathe
I can not feel extremities
Father Sun is but a glimpse
Or just a memory?

When you receive the mark of man, you know
You haven't long in this world, oh

Stand, sentinel, stand
Seen the progress of man, progress of time
For two hundred years, vision, my tears
Oh stand, sentinel, stand
Seen the changes of man, changes of mind
All of these years, my people, my kind, we will stand, stand

I have cradled babies in my arms, given shelter from the storm
Now I must rest eternal rest, join my brothers in the Earth
Now my life is but a flicker in the flame of life itself
Was it all for nothing? All for nothing?
Soon, I will... I will have my answer

Stand, sentinel, stand
Seen the progress of man, progress of time
For two hundred years, vision, my tears
Stand, sentinel, stand

We will stand, oh stand

Now I have the mark!

Never fall!
Never fall!
Never fall!
Never fall!


5. Life


Light - burn my tender eyes
Sound - let my ears be open now

Seems like ages since those loggers took my life
Now reborn, I feel my soul is dreaming

Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child
Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child

Spirits - dancing all around my grave
Memory - feeling like there's nothing there

And all the strangers faces that do now surround me
Feelings so confused within my mind

Naked, lost and cold, they put their arms around me
I feel compassion now for all mankind

Seems like ages since those loggers took my life
Now reborn, I feel my soul is screaming

Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child
Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child

Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child
Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child
Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child
Life, looking through the eyes of a newborn child

And all the strangers faces that do now surround me
Feelings so confused within my mind

Naked, lost and cold, they put their arms around me
I feel compassion now for all mankind

Life
I got to get out, I got to get out
I got to get out, I got to get out
I got to get out, I got to get out
I got to get out, I got to get out


6. Warrior Spirit


Smoky mist of dawn, rising slowly from Earth, so warm
Blood on leaves, glistens like so many jewels

Death is here...
One man's victory is another's defeat
Yet the spirit lives on and on
Cheating fate once more
To rise up again

Warrior Spirit

Do eyes of the night truly see all?
Or are lights and shades illusion?
Moonlight on steel, glistening like a shining star
Reality or madness? Living in fear

Death is near...
One man's victory is another's defeat
Yet the spirit lives on and on
Cheating fate once more
To rise up again, again

Warrior Spirit, the shadow of the night
Warrior Spirit, born of darkness, not the light
Warrior Spirit is a creature of the night
Warrior Spirit lives on, Warrior Spirit lives on
On and on, on and on, on and on

When the spirit cries out, does anyone hear?
Feel the mountain tremble and the ocean rise
When the wolf cries out, do you shed a tear?
As the mountain crumbles right before your eyes

Your death is here
One man's victory is another's defeat
Yet the spirit lives on and on
Cheating fate once more
To rise up again, again, again

Warrior Spirit, the shadow of the night
Warrior Spirit, born of darkness, not the light
Warrior Spirit is a creature of the night
Warrior Spirit lives on, Warrior Spirit lives on
On and on, on and on, on and on
On and on, on and on, on and on


7. Mystic Wings


You're moving closer, closer to my heart
If only in my dreams
We've been riding on, forever in the dark
Touched, but never seen

Dream lover, move closer
Mind vision, come real
Come closer to me
On Mystic Wings

Someone like you could love only me
Learning to fly - life's mystery
Someone like you could only love me
Passion can fly, passion can fly
On Mystic Wings

Lost forever, if only in my dreams
I never thought I'd find you
I've been holding on, so deep within my heart
Touched, but never feel

My phantom lover, so close now
Mind vision, come real
Come closer to me
On Mystic Wings

Someone like you could love only me
Learning to fly - life's mystery
Someone like you could only love me
Learning to fly - life's mystery
Passion can fly, passion can fly
On Mystic Wings

I've been holding on, if only in my dreams
Come closer to me

Someone like you could love only me
Learning to fly - life's mystery
Someone like you could love only me
Learning to fly - life's mystery
On Mystic Wings
On Mystic Wings


8. Love Is Pain


All these lies... don't think I can last another day
So much pain...like a needle pushing air into my veins

Darkness come my way
Take me from this place
Thoughts within my mind
Now they've started, slowly but surely, to unwind

Love is Pain, bound to fade away
Try in vain, to fly to yesterday

Live in fear...
To face another lonely night alone
Why am I...
Surrounded by a house, but not a home

Darkness come my way
Take me from this place
Thoughts within my mind
Now they've started, slowly but so surely, to unwind

Love is Pain, bound to fade away
Try in vain, to fly to yesterday
Would you rewind? Could you be kind?
Shouldn't you be mine? Can't you be?

So called love...
All you ever brought to me is pain
Back to Hell
I swear you put me through it once again

Love is Pain, bound to fade away
Try in vain, to fly to yesterday
Love is Pain, bound to fade away
Try in vain, to fly to yesterday


9. Earth Maker


Around Father Sun, the world it must turn
Come too close and the oceans will burn
The creator of all mankind
Looking down on pollution and crime

Will we fall on judgment day?
Is it too late to change our ways?

Feel his stare, look in his eyes
Are you only a taker?
Search your heart, use a good mind
All praise Earth Maker

The wind in the trees whispers your name
Does your head and your heart think the same?
The creator's calling to you
Do you know what your powers do?

Will you run on judgment day?
Is it too late to change our ways?

Feel his stare, look in his eyes
Are you only a taker?
Search your heart, use a good mind
All praise...

He will watch over me, and I shall not fall

Feel his stare, look in his eyes
Are you only a taker?
Search your heart, use a good mind
Earth Maker
Feel his stare, look in his eyes
Are you only a taker?
Search your heart, use a good mind
All praise Earth Maker


10. Soul To Soul


When does life become death, and death become life?
It's a fine line - one I can't see even if I squint my eyes

If the soul can rise up and live again
Why is it I just don't remember?

Feels like I've been here before
Looked in the window, but never opened the door
All of my visions have gone black
Now I'm trying to find my way back

To another life
In a time when the mysteries were told
To another life
In a world full of shadows, behold
I'm moving soul to soul
Soul to soul

When does art imitate life, and life become art?
It's a hard line and crossing over is my only desire

If I have walked this Earth before
Why is it I just can't remember

Feels like I've been here before
Peered in the window, but never opened the door
All of my visions fade black
Now I'm trying to find my way back

To another life
In a time when the mysteries were told
To another life
In a world full of shadows, behold
I'm moving soul to soul
Soul to soul

And now it feels like I've been here before
Looked in the window, but never opened the door
All of my visions have gone black
Now I'm trying to find my way back

To another life
In a time when the mysteries were told
To another life
In a world full of shadows, behold
I'm moving soul to soul
Soul to soul
