Lyrics by: Geoff Tate and Chris DeGarmo
Most of this is
memory now
I've gone too far to turn back now
I'm not quite what I thought I was
but
Then again I'm maybe more
The blood-words promised, I've spoken
Releasing the
names from the circle
Maybe I can leave here now and, o
Transcend the
boundaries
For now I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand transition
The
future is but past forgotten
On the road to madness
Times measure rusts as it
crawls
I see its face in the looking glass - stop
This screaming laughter hides, the pain
of its reality
Black, the door was locked I opened
And now I've paid that price ten-fold
over
Knowledge - was it worth such torment, oh
To see the far side of
shadow
And still I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand transition
I'm a
fool in search of wisdom
And I'm on the road to madness
Yes, I'm on the road to
madness
I'm awaiting endlessly
Pounding rhythms echo me
Won't you take me
somewhere far beyond the void
And still I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand
transition
Maybe one day, oh I'll meet you, and we'll
Walk the roads to madness
Yes,
we're on the road to madness
Oh, I think they've come to take me
I hear the voice,
but there's no-one to see
I can't scream, too late it's time
Stay on the course to
pass
You'll never find the answer
To a place where darkened angels seemed lost and never
found
Scream to see the light of
Forming figures fast behind you
Lay the past in the
wind to spin
And your fate will sail beyond the open plains
Sail with angels
onward
Live or die for the chosen one said
Saber sights cast a spell behind you
And
they lock in all around
Free the scene insider
Never looking back to find
why
Ride a course till the end of time
And you'll stand atop the gate
Laying waste in
a path recited
Fighting force won't avenge the guided black wing
Oh, electric might poses
fright inside me
Seeing light at the end of sight reminds me
I've passed
away
Take Hold of the Flame
Geoff Tate, Chris DeGarmo
We see the
light of those who find
A world has passed them by
To late to save a dream that's growing
cold
We realize that fate must hide its face
>From those who try
To see the distant
signs of unforetold
Oh... oh, take hold
>From a haze came a rage of
thunder
Distant signs of darkness on the way
Fading cries scream of pain and
hunger
But in the night the light will guide your way
So take hold of the
flame
Don't you see life's a game
So take hold of the flame
You've got nothing to
lose, but everything to gain
Ride, to a place beyond our time
Reach, for the edges
of your mind, and you are there
See, that the light will find its way
Back to a place
where it will stay, make it stay
Throw down the chains of oppression that bind
you
With the air of freedom the flame grows bright
We are the strong, the youth
united
We are one, we are children of the light
So take hold of the flame
Don't
you see life's a game
So take hold of the flame
You've got nothing to lose, but everything
to gain
Take Hold of the Flame
