Coming On 03:59
lyrics

COMING ON Shine, the blackest night The colours fading into black dehumanized Hide, here comes the sun Intensified and burning down before my eyes (Before me) Now I know the truth Now I smell the fear Now I taste the lies The end is Chorus: Coming On Now I’m so awake that I never sleep And I’m holding on Tomorrow is today Shining strong Like a searchlight in the darkest night Coming On Coming On Together, Heart and Mind The ancient story comes alive Wrinkled in time It’s going down The time is now To come together crystallize And come alive (Before me) Now I know the truth There’s no more fear Goodbye to lies The end is Coming On Chorus Now I know the truth There’s no more fear No more lies Come on

TORCH OF ROCK AND ROLL When I was just 13 When rock and roll was king That’s when I joined The Kiss Army Destroyer in my hand The cover dark and glam It a lit a flame inside of me I wanna feel the lights I wanna feel the flames Oh yeah, burning burning oh The Torch of Rock and Roll Hold it high, heal your soul I turned 24 Paul Stanley at my door Record deal and dreams come true But then the end did come And Grunge was number one The flame went dim But stayed alive And now I see the light And now I feel the flames Oh yeah, burning burning oh Chorus: The Torch of Rock and Roll Hold it high, heal your soul Let the fire take control The Torch of Rock and Roll I’ll never stop until I die (Keep it burning) Don’t even ask the reasons why (Keep it burning) This fire deep inside It’s what keeps me alive I raise my torch up to the sky Chorus

So High 03:47

SO HIGH Want to believe I wanna know I wanna breathe and let it go We were sent here to remember how to fly Chorus: But we get so high Then fall so low I feel you here I feel your ghost Can’t close my eyes Don’t wanna see I wanna run But can’t break free Standing at the edge of sanity Chorus Searching for the answers But the more I learn the less I know Drowning in the reasons On my knees the river flows Chorus I wanna know

DISRUPTOR I am awake in this place All is upside down Nothing is never the same All I believe is deleted completely I am the only to blame No fear I am able though I am unstable I move in a different way Reality wild like a demon of reason My logic will wash you away Wash you away Disruptor Come on and climb on This juggernaut word and song Making the Rock Great Again Standing divided In shadows of giants Dancing so close to the flame Hold on Disruptor Hold on Reality ruptured the truth deconstructed....again Into the madness The joy and the sadness Never will I be the same My fist in the air l am warrior savage sage Making the Rock Great Again Disruptor DISRUPTOR!

BURDEN All it would take Just let it go I pay the price I know Under my skin I fall apart All that you’ve been alone Hold it up high Here in my sky I give you this burden The end Into the dawn God is so tired Harsh light of day Alive Come to me now Please understand Your fear is for nothing go on All that I am Ego and all I give you this burden The end Hold it up high Here in my sky I give you this b

MASTER OF REALITY I am observer to what is A life incomplete Dying to be the hero In my dreams I am free Let go, I’m falling high Enter the calling, come touch the sky Chorus: Bending to my will I am this Grateful humble master Of reality Sifting through the ashes Of a life built on pain Like a phoenix from the ashes rise once again Let go Im falling high Enter the calling, Come touch the sky Chorus

Darker Side Of Me 03:53
lyrics

DARKER SIDE OF ME There’s a place I sometimes go Where it’s raining mist and cold Far away from peaceful light and warm But I hold it, I embrace Dark clouds, shadows cross my face Viking anger and a lust for more And you reflect that part of me And in your eyes I see The darker side of me I let it go, I have no fear The darker side is always near It walks beside me like a sullen friend A place to go release my pain To hold it in would be insane Kiss the morning but embrace the night You reflect that part of me And in your eyes I see Falling, I’m falling Falling to the night Falling, I’m falling Falling to the night

My Garden 04:08

MY GARDEN My garden was a place where the flowers grew But it’s choked with weeds since I learned the truth The wind blew warm and the rain was kind But the seasons have changed here in my mind Oh, don’t let the sun burn down on me Oh, The garden in my mind So I called The Gardner to come on in He said “Your problems started with the seeds of Sin” He cleaned my garden He was fast and cheap but now the weeds are back and their roots run deep Oh, don’t let the sun burn down on me Oh, the garden in my mind Oh, look in my eyes and you will see Oh, the garden in my mind This is my garden Stay out of my garden My garden grows things that I must hide Just do me a favour Don’t come inside Stay out of my garden! Please.

KICKIN STONES Smart enough to let it go But I don’t care ‘Cause I don’t know How it feels on the inside To the end to this lovers dream All is dead Silent screams Can you see it on the outside In the bottle peace of my mind Goin’ down but I’m not the kind Trying to get control who gives a damn I am I am no I can’t hide Laughing crying suicide Trying to get control who gives damn Chorus: Down the road Kickin’ stones Kickin’ them all the way Rowboat sunrise on the lake I could swear I felt it shake I could use a little shaking right now Say I’m a fool you can kiss my past I’m living now and I’m living fast I am the legend in my mind I am I am whatever man An easy little problem to have I am I am no I can’t hide Laughing crying suicide Don’t wanna face it on my own No not today Chorus

When This Is Over 03:16

WHEN THIS IS OVER This killer comes to test our will Swallowed by fear the world stands still I feel a storm that’s coming I’m so alive When this is over We will be stronger Human disease from outside in We pay the price unconscious sin The universe is calling will we arise? Arise When this is over We will be stronger Than ever before

about

This is the third album forged by hard rock/metal titans from Vancouver, Canada during the COVID 19 pandemic.
A legacy approach was taken in it's creation, as not only does it include songs that tell the story of deep motivation and purpose that burns within, but it tells the story of how the flame was lit.
Though many of the songs were written recently, there are also songs included here that were created in the pre-grunge era.
Specific equipment, and some of the original players from that time, were employed on the record to truly capture the raw rock authenticity that was experienced then.
The past and present have intersected.
This record is an auto biography of sorts and a tribute to those that have been lost...then and now.
The grand, epic approach to songwriting of a simpler time has intersected with a yearning hunger for music to truly believe in during this complicated and tumultuous moment in history.
Here the "Torch Of Rock And Roll"burns brighter than ever before. A beacon of hope rising above the waves of darkness.

Feel The Fire. Keep it Burning.
