Lyrics:
Black Blade-Blue Öyster Cult
I have this feeling that my luck is none too good
This sword here at my side don't act the way it should
Keeps calling me its master, but I feel like its slave
Hauling me faster and faster to an early, early grave
And it howls, it howls like hell
I'm told it's my duty to fight against the law
That wizardry's my trade and I was born to wade through gore
I just want to be a lover, not a red-eyed screaming ghoul
I wish it'd picked another to be its killing tool
Black blade! Black blade!
Forged a billion years ago
Black blade! Black blade!
Killing so its power can grow
There's death from the beginning to the end of time
And I'm the cosmic champion and I hold a mystic sign
And the whole world's dying and the burdens mine
And the black sword keeps on killing 'til the end of time
Black blade! Black blade!
Bringing chaos to the world we know
Black blade! Black blade!
And its using me to kill my friends
Black blade! Black blade!
Getting stronger so the world will end
Black blade! Black blade!
Forcing my mind to bend and bend
The black blade
Forged a million billion years ago
My cosmic sword goes on for eternity
Carving out destiny
Bringing in the lords of chaos
Bringing up the beasts of Hades
Sucking out the souls of heroes
Laying waste to knights and ladies
My master is my slave
Ha ha ah ha ah ha!

Monsters-Blue Öyster Cult
Keep going getting higher
New worlds waiting in the sky
To escape the feasting and the hunger
Not the monsters in our minds
We got our hands on this ship
And stowed away into the night
The four of us and Pasha dear
She to steer and we to fight
Federal rules and regulations
No more laughter left on earth
Outer space our one salvation
May god help us in our search
We went so fast that we grew younger
Put this ship on cruise control!
We all did our best with Pasha
But not as good as good ol' Joe
Love never should have entered
It was never in the plan
We were finally going to have her
And let Joe be damned
Monsters, monsters, monsters in the night
Monsters, monsters, monsters in black and white
Monsters, monsters, monsters out of control
Monsters, monsters, monsters when you're alone
Monsters, monsters, monsters feeding on themselves
Monsters, monsters on the road to hell
Joe awoke from a stupor
It was clear something was wrong
He rushed in and found us with her
And in his rage he aimed his gun
One shot and it was over
Pasha smiled and then was gone

Spellbound-Siouxsie and the Banshees
From the cradle bars
Comes a beckoning voice
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
And don't forget when your elders forget
To say their prayers
Take them by the legs
And throw them down the stairs
When you think your toys
Have gone berserk
And it's an illusion
You cannot shirk
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Entranced
Entranced
Tranced, tranced, tranced

Shield-Deep Purple
Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream
While the children play in the field
Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life
But how strong is the shield?
Can peace be found on the carpet above ground
Where sky is forever blue
So let it pass baby now, the slow and riding cloud
Which may take me from you
Many things a man can lose
His self, his rights, his views
But never his heart or his love
So take this hand of mine and climb baby, climb
To the hill up above
Now you can play a queen on the hill built on a dream
While our children play in the field
I can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better life
And trust in the strength of the shield
So trust in you love, and Lucy of above
And let light pass like a wheel
Don't take the chance of life's hectic dance
Kiss the strength of the shield
The seeker will be found by the looker on the ground
And to his wish he will yield
Fate will have it's word, of course And time will change its course
And hold the strength of the shield

The Temple of the King-Rainbow
One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell
One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to ring
Meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the circle he stands
Searching, seeking
With just one touch of his trembling hand
The answer will be found
Daylight waits while the old man sings
Heaven help me
And then like the rush of a thousand wings
It shines upon the one
And the day had just begun
One day in the year of the fox came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell
One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to sing
It meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the people he stands
Seeing, feeling
With just a wave of a strong right hand
He's gone
To the temple of the king
Far from the circle at the edge of the world
He's hoping, wondering
Thinking back from the stories he's heard
Of what he's going to see
There in middle of the circle it lies
Heaven help me
Then all could see by the shine in his eyes
The answer had been found
Back with the people in the circle he stands
Giving, feeling
With just one touch of a strong right hand
They know
Of the temple and the king

Explosivo-Tenacious D
Climb upon my faithful steed,
Then we gonna ride,
Gonna smoke some weed.
Climb upon my big-ass steed,
And ride, ride, ride.
Weeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee,
What's the name of the song,
Explosivo!
Don't know what it's about,
But it's good to go.
What's the name of my girlfriend
I don't know,
But she's built like the shit
And she's good to go, go,
She's good to go,
She's good to go.
We are fuelled by Satan,
Yes we're schooled by Satan.
Fueled by Satan!
Writin' those tasty riffs
Just as fast as we can.
Schooled by Satan!
We were the inventors
Of the cosmic astral code.
We've come to blow you away,
We've come to blow your nose.
We've come to fuckin' blow,
We've come to blow the show.
We've come to fuckin' blow,
You know it, you know it!
Weeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee,
What's the name of the song,
Explosivo!
Don't know what it's about
But it's good to riddle-ah!
I am not one of you. I come from an ancient time.
I am known as The Kicker of Elves. I am also known as The Angel Crusher!
Explosivo.

A Horse Called Golgotha-Baroness
Call the boy
He's down the hallow
Cull the tide
Distill the rye
Now it's time for medication
Stallions on the eiderdown
The stained horizon
Ablaze with revolvers
Stampedes and bridles
Exorcise the family demons
Stallions on the eiderdown
The stained horizon
Of the dark rein and rider
The steed named Golgotha

Ogre Battle-Queen
Aaaahhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
Now, once upon a time, an old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone and the soup is cold on your table
And if the black crow flies to find a new destination
That is the sign
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
He gives a great big cry and he can swallow up the ocean
With a mighty tongue, he catches flies and the palm of his hand incredible size
One great big eye has to focus in your direction
Now the battle is on, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
The ogre men are still inside, the two-way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down right out of sight
You can't see in, but they can see out
"Ooh, keep a lookout"
The ogre men are coming out from the two-way mirror mountain
They're running up behind, and they're coming all about
Can't go east, 'cause you gotta go south
Ogre men are going home
The great big fight is over
Bugle blow, let trumpet cry
Ogre battle lives forevermore, oh-oh-oh
You can come along
You can come along
Come to ogre battle
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh

Thoughts for Naught-Gong
If you want to fly,
If you want to become a star
A superhero
You could try the ascension of the great pyramid of life
Counting again and again from one to nine
Approaching and pushing away infinity, o sweet absurdity!
But if you prefer that old silly number zero
You'll become a master of doing nothing, being nothing

Keys to the Castle-Thee Oh Sees
Artist: Thee Oh Sees
Album: Orc
This parade of candied people
Turns the bend in castle's steeple
Flood the tower with your body
Fling yourselves from upper belfry
Let's witness the whole occasion
Piles of bodies fill the garden
Smash the hedgerow with their plummet
Stop with panic, ugly banquet
Floating in the vile moat yeah
Crack their skulls upon the cobbles
Ringing home their lemming's message
Where Owls Know My Name
Where Owls Know My Name-Rivers of Nihil
And then I wished you away
I lost those memories
Of the days we weren't
Forsaken. Why don't we
Just relax our eyes
And fall into a dream
Let it take my mind
Where owls know my name
And it gets colder every day
Lost in eternity's grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we've built
It's breaking down
Still running away from it
You're still dreaming
Still hoping that there's something that may be worth seeking
You've wasted all that you have been given
Still hoping to find a way to make life worth living
Lost in eternity's grasp
We'll find no way to weather the storm
This mentality that we built
Is breaking down
All the same
Every path you take
You remain
Trapped within your shame
Go away far away
Separate from the shame
Lost in eternity's grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we've built
It's breaking down
I brought myself to this place
Where only owls would know me
This reality that I've built
Is an empty space
Where Dragons Dwell-Gojira
A deep voice is rising from the heart of the mountain
Vibrations of the stone I can hear in my heart
The call of instinct, the flight of the powerful
I hunger for it, it just keeps me alive
I met the dragon in a cave by the mountain
Now I bring the evidence the beast is alive
This ageless army will strike in the morning
And then a star will rise and shine in the sky
But I grow impatient, cannot stand the wait
And I start to dig within me this tunnel to I
In this region of me, a great dragon is lying
On the wealth of a mighty world, my own world inside
I saw, I saw monsters
And I, and I started, started to dig within
When I, when I turn my
Turn my back on them, they devour me
In this region of
Me, a dragon is lying there awake
Monster, monster kings, do
Do not scorn them, but do not fear them, no
Muster, muster thy army, army
Dragons are the myth alive
In the heart of men

Sorceress-Opeth
I am a sinner and I worship evil
Blood is thinner, but you will never know
Can you confess that you thrive in chaos
You're a sorceress, and your eye is on the lost
But you're dying
It's in your eyes
You're a charlatan, you get everything you wish
You're a harlot, carry poison in your kiss
Beg forgiveness, with a dagger in your hand
Sow your death seed and reap the dying lands
But you're crying
It's only vice
Empty vessel drained of hope
And none the lesser at the end of a rope
Have you ever hated like I?
Know I still awaited the absence of lies
Watch your eager tongue
Attack me from behind
Riddle whispers, bleak futile control
Like a twin sister adapting to a role
You're a murderer, bloodlust increase
You're a harvester, come close to spread disease
And you're hiding
I hear you cry

The Enchanter-Robert Plant & The Strange Sensation
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for me
She's leading the man who's beating the drum
Love is all around her on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round the air
She's lost in conversation with the birds of the air
She's trading information in a world without fear
She's fixing up a potion made of laughter and love
And I will follow the enchanter on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round, round
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
She's studying the planets and she's searching for signs
Her eyes promise mystery and her treasure to find
She's mixing my emotions it's so easily done
In a league with the enchanter on the road to the sun
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
It's so very easily done
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for free
She's leading the man who's beating the drum
And love is all around her on the road to the sun

Rainbow Demon-Uriah Heep
There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire
Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day
Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun

The Sails of Charon-Scorpions
Dark night, there is no light
In the realm of the black magic man
Soul's flight into the cold blight
Of the destroyer's magic land
Poor man, whose spirits are stronger
They're the ones who will reign
You're struggles are in vain
Blind man, you're suckin' your own blood
Soon black magic's dying
You'd better start crying
Blind man, you're suckin' your own blood
Soon black magic's dying
You'd better start crying
Throw out your evil desire
The dark king's kingdom is
Made out of mire
Throw out your evil desire
The dark king's kingdom is
Made out of mire
Keep on for the kingdom of light
There is no darkness, there is no night

The Sails of Charon lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group
Rush, "Xanadu"
"To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honey dew
And drink the milk of paradise...."
I had heard the whispered tales
Of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book. I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops
Of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost--Xanadu
Xanadu--To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
A thousand years have come and gone
But Time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in the everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end
Weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost--Xanadu
Xanadu--held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise

It sends you spinning
You have no choice
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
And don't forget when your elders forget
To say their prayers
Take them by the legs
And throw them down the stairs
When you think your toys
Have gone berserk
And it's an illusion
You cannot shirk
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound, oh, oh, oh
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Spellbound
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Entranced
Entranced
Tranced, tranced, tranced

Shield-Deep Purple
Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream
While the children play in the field
Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life
But how strong is the shield?
Can peace be found on the carpet above ground
Where sky is forever blue
So let it pass baby now, the slow and riding cloud
Which may take me from you
Many things a man can lose
His self, his rights, his views
But never his heart or his love
So take this hand of mine and climb baby, climb
To the hill up above
Now you can play a queen on the hill built on a dream
While our children play in the field
I can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better life
And trust in the strength of the shield
So trust in you love, and Lucy of above
And let light pass like a wheel
Don't take the chance of life's hectic dance
Kiss the strength of the shield
The seeker will be found by the looker on the ground
And to his wish he will yield
Fate will have it's word, of course And time will change its course
And hold the strength of the shield

The Temple of the King-Rainbow
One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell
One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to ring
Meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the circle he stands
Searching, seeking
With just one touch of his trembling hand
The answer will be found
Daylight waits while the old man sings
Heaven help me
And then like the rush of a thousand wings
It shines upon the one
And the day had just begun
One day in the year of the fox came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell
One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to sing
It meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king
There in the middle of the people he stands
Seeing, feeling
With just a wave of a strong right hand
He's gone
To the temple of the king
Far from the circle at the edge of the world
He's hoping, wondering
Thinking back from the stories he's heard
Of what he's going to see
There in middle of the circle it lies
Heaven help me
Then all could see by the shine in his eyes
The answer had been found
Back with the people in the circle he stands
Giving, feeling
With just one touch of a strong right hand
They know
Of the temple and the king

Explosivo-Tenacious D
Climb upon my faithful steed,
Then we gonna ride,
Gonna smoke some weed.
Climb upon my big-ass steed,
And ride, ride, ride.
Weeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee,
What's the name of the song,
Explosivo!
Don't know what it's about,
But it's good to go.
What's the name of my girlfriend
I don't know,
But she's built like the shit
And she's good to go, go,
She's good to go,
She's good to go.
We are fuelled by Satan,
Yes we're schooled by Satan.
Fueled by Satan!
Writin' those tasty riffs
Just as fast as we can.
Schooled by Satan!
We were the inventors
Of the cosmic astral code.
We've come to blow you away,
We've come to blow your nose.
We've come to fuckin' blow,
We've come to blow the show.
We've come to fuckin' blow,
You know it, you know it!
Weeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eee-eee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee-eeeee,
What's the name of the song,
Explosivo!
Don't know what it's about
But it's good to riddle-ah!
I am not one of you. I come from an ancient time.
I am known as The Kicker of Elves. I am also known as The Angel Crusher!

A Horse Called Golgotha-Baroness
Call the boy
He's down the hallow
Cull the tide
Distill the rye
Now it's time for medication
Stallions on the eiderdown
The stained horizon
Ablaze with revolvers
Stampedes and bridles
Exorcise the family demons
Stallions on the eiderdown
The stained horizon
Of the dark rein and rider
The steed named Golgotha

Ogre Battle-Queen
Aaaahhh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
Now, once upon a time, an old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone and the soup is cold on your table
And if the black crow flies to find a new destination
That is the sign
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
He gives a great big cry and he can swallow up the ocean
With a mighty tongue, he catches flies and the palm of his hand incredible size
One great big eye has to focus in your direction
Now the battle is on, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to the ogre battle fight
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh
The ogre men are still inside, the two-way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down right out of sight
You can't see in, but they can see out
"Ooh, keep a lookout"
The ogre men are coming out from the two-way mirror mountain
They're running up behind, and they're coming all about
Can't go east, 'cause you gotta go south
Ogre men are going home
The great big fight is over
Bugle blow, let trumpet cry
Ogre battle lives forevermore, oh-oh-oh
You can come along
You can come along
Come to ogre battle
Ah, ah, ah, ah, aaahhh

Thoughts for Naught-Gong
If you want to fly,
If you want to become a star
A superhero
You could try the ascension of the great pyramid of life
Counting again and again from one to nine
Approaching and pushing away infinity, o sweet absurdity!
But if you prefer that old silly number zero
You'll become a master of doing nothing, being nothing

Keys to the Castle-Thee Oh Sees
Artist: Thee Oh Sees
Album: Orc
This parade of candied people
Turns the bend in castle's steeple
Flood the tower with your body
Fling yourselves from upper belfry
Let's witness the whole occasion
Piles of bodies fill the garden
Smash the hedgerow with their plummet
Stop with panic, ugly banquet
Floating in the vile moat yeah
Crack their skulls upon the cobbles
Ringing home their lemming's message
Where Owls Know My Name
Where Owls Know My Name-Rivers of Nihil
And then I wished you away
I lost those memories
Of the days we weren't
Forsaken. Why don't we
Just relax our eyes
And fall into a dream
Let it take my mind
Where owls know my name
And it gets colder every day
Lost in eternity's grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we've built
It's breaking down
Still running away from it
You're still dreaming
Still hoping that there's something that may be worth seeking
You've wasted all that you have been given
Still hoping to find a way to make life worth living
Lost in eternity's grasp
We'll find no way to weather the storm
This mentality that we built
Is breaking down
All the same
Every path you take
You remain
Trapped within your shame
Go away far away
Separate from the shame
Lost in eternity's grasp
Withdrawing further from what we have known
This mentality that we've built
It's breaking down
I brought myself to this place
Where only owls would know me
This reality that I've built
Is an empty space
Where Dragons Dwell-Gojira
A deep voice is rising from the heart of the mountain
Vibrations of the stone I can hear in my heart
The call of instinct, the flight of the powerful
I hunger for it, it just keeps me alive
I met the dragon in a cave by the mountain
Now I bring the evidence the beast is alive
This ageless army will strike in the morning
And then a star will rise and shine in the sky
But I grow impatient, cannot stand the wait
And I start to dig within me this tunnel to I
In this region of me, a great dragon is lying
On the wealth of a mighty world, my own world inside
I saw, I saw monsters
And I, and I started, started to dig within
When I, when I turn my
Turn my back on them, they devour me
In this region of
Me, a dragon is lying there awake
Monster, monster kings, do
Do not scorn them, but do not fear them, no
Muster, muster thy army, army
Dragons are the myth alive
In the heart of men

Sorceress-Opeth
I am a sinner and I worship evil
Blood is thinner, but you will never know
Can you confess that you thrive in chaos
You're a sorceress, and your eye is on the lost
But you're dying
It's in your eyes
You're a charlatan, you get everything you wish
You're a harlot, carry poison in your kiss
Beg forgiveness, with a dagger in your hand
Sow your death seed and reap the dying lands
But you're crying
It's only vice
Empty vessel drained of hope
And none the lesser at the end of a rope
Have you ever hated like I?
Know I still awaited the absence of lies
Watch your eager tongue
Attack me from behind
Riddle whispers, bleak futile control
Like a twin sister adapting to a role
You're a murderer, bloodlust increase
You're a harvester, come close to spread disease
And you're hiding
I hear you cry

The Enchanter-Robert Plant & The Strange Sensation
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for me
She's leading the man who's beating the drum
Love is all around her on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round the air
She's lost in conversation with the birds of the air
She's trading information in a world without fear
She's fixing up a potion made of laughter and love
And I will follow the enchanter on the road to the sun
Round, round, moving me round
Round, round, round
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
She's studying the planets and she's searching for signs
Her eyes promise mystery and her treasure to find
She's mixing my emotions it's so easily done
In a league with the enchanter on the road to the sun
Oh that the stars will light my way
Oh as my tides dance the ebb and sway
It's so very easily done
She moves through the mountains and down to the sea
She sings in celebration with her piper for free
She's leading the man who's beating the drum
And love is all around her on the road to the sun

Rainbow Demon-Uriah Heep
There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire
Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day
Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun

The Sails of Charon-Scorpions
Dark night, there is no light
In the realm of the black magic man
Soul's flight into the cold blight
Of the destroyer's magic land
Poor man, whose spirits are stronger
They're the ones who will reign
You're struggles are in vain
Blind man, you're suckin' your own blood
Soon black magic's dying
You'd better start crying
Blind man, you're suckin' your own blood
Soon black magic's dying
You'd better start crying
Throw out your evil desire
The dark king's kingdom is
Made out of mire
Throw out your evil desire
The dark king's kingdom is
Made out of mire
Keep on for the kingdom of light
There is no darkness, there is no night

Rush, "Xanadu"
"To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honey dew
And drink the milk of paradise...."
I had heard the whispered tales
Of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book. I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops
Of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost--Xanadu
Xanadu--To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
A thousand years have come and gone
But Time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in the everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end
Weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost--Xanadu
Xanadu--held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
