Vital Remains Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.The Trooper

Lyricist:Stephen Percy Harris

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back

The bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death

The horse, he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We won't live to fight another day

We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below

And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan


2.Dethroned Emperor

Lyricist:Thomas Gabriel Fischer

Yeah, hey
See the portal, the gate of madness
Locked forever in a veil of shame

Deny extraction, thirst for disgrace
Light of the day, shadows from beyond
Scaffolds of steel, the throne has gone

Dethroned emperor, emperor, emperor
Dethroned emperor, emperor, emperor

The foot of the stairs, dimension in might
The king just sits, his eyes are glass

Growing of the small, the laughters fall
Can you deny remaining cries?
Descent of the lords, into the trap
Existence and hate, the unseen gate

Dethroned emperor, emperor, emperor
Dethroned emperor, emperor


3.Eastern Journey

Lyricist:Arthey John Raymond, Wagstaff John Lewis

Misery can't stop the pain I feel inside
Empty, my soul yearns for something I just can't find
Gathering sights within my mind
Contemplating thoughts I left behind
Wondering, wondering why I am alive

Beckoning, raising my arms, hear my cry
Pity me, pity me not, I will survive
Gathering sights within my mind
Contemplating thoughts I left behind
Reality torturing my soul I don't know why

Whispering voices talking inside my head
Calling me, taunting me, wishing I were dead
Gotta get them out, cast the voices out
Terminate the sounds, exterminate disturbing sound out
Gripping on the life, taking on the reality
Holding on with might, relying on my sanity

Sanity, searching for my mind blackened with hate
Justify shadowing colors, sound that cry
Gathering sights within my mind
Contemplating thoughts I left behind
Wondering, wondering why I am alive

Immersing in thought, tranquil in silence
Underlying secrets, locked in time
Truth to existence lies within myself
Motionless in wonder, taking in all that's clear

Be gone, fade away, can't blind my eyes
Be gone, fade away, I know the truth
Be gone, fade away, can't blind my eyes
Searching for meaning deep inside
Mindless journeys, forever ride

Be gone, fade away, can't blind my eyes
Be gone, fade away, I know the truth
Searching for meaning deep inside
Mindless journeys, forever ride

Misery can't stop the pain I feel inside
Empty, my soul yearns for something I just can't find
Gathering sights within my mind
Contemplating thoughts I left behind
Wondering, wondering why I am alive

Beckoning, raising my arms, hear my cry
Pity me, pity me not, I will survive
Gathering sights within my mind
Contemplating thoughts I left behind
Reality torturing my soul I don't know why

Prisms of colors, I don't understand
Floating in patterns, the skies of clad
Envisioned in my thoughts together as I stand
Motionless in wonder taking all that's clear

Be gone, fade away, can't blind my eyes
Be gone, fade away, I know the truth
Be gone fade away, can't blind my eyes
Searching for meaning deep inside
Mindless journeys, forever ride

Be gone, fade away, can't blind my eyes
Be gone, fade away, I know the truth
Searching for meaning deep inside
Mindless journeys, forever ride
