I. The Crimson Sunrise
3
(Instrumental)
4
II. Innocence
5
I remember a time
6
My frail, virgin mind
7
watched the crimson sunrise
8
Imagined what it might find
9
Life was filled with wonder
10
I felt the warm wind blow
11
I must explore the boundaries
12
Transcend the depth of winter's snow
13
Innocence caressing me
14
I never felt so young before
15
There was so much life in me
16
Still I longed to search for more
17
But those days are gone now
18
Changed like a leaf on a tree
19
Blown away forever
20
into the cool autumn breeze
21
The snow has now fallen
22
and my sun's not so bright
23
I struggle to hold on
24
with the last of my might
25
In my den of inequity
26
viciousness and subtlety
27
struggle to ease the pain
28
struggle to find the sane
29
Ignorance surrounding me
30
I've never been so filled with fear
31
All my life's been drained from me
32
The end is drawing near....
33
III. Carpe Diem
34
'Carpe diem, seize the day'
35
I'll always remember
36
The chill of November
37
The news of the fall
38
The sounds in the hall
39
The clock on the wall ticking away
40
'Seize the Day'
41
I heard him say
42
Life will not always be this way
43
Look around
44
Hear the sounds
45
Cherish your life while you're still around
46
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
47
Old Time is still a-flying;
48
And this same flower that smiles today,
49
Tomorrow will be dying."
50
We can learn from the past
51
But those days are gone
52
We can hope for the future
53
But there may not be one
54
The words stuck in my mind
55
alive from what I've learned
56
I have to seize the day
57
To home I returned
58
Preparing for her flight
59
I held with all my might
60
Fearing my deepest fright
61
She walked into the night
62
She turned for one last look
63
She looked me in the eye
64
I said, 'I Love You...Good-bye'
65
"It's the most awful thing you'll
66
ever hear."
67
"If you're lying to me..."
68
"Oh, you dearly love her."
69
"...just have to leave... all our lives."
70
"Seize the day!"
71
"Something happened.
72
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may."
73
"She was killed."
74
IV. The Darkest of Winters
75
(Instrumental)
76
V. Another World
77
So far or so it seems
78
All is lost with nothing fulfilled
79
Off the pages and a T.V. screen
80
Another world where nothing's true
81
Tripping through the life fantastic
82
Lose a step and never get up
83
Left alone with a cold blank stare
84
I feel like giving up
85
I was blinded by a paradise
86
Utopia high in the sky
87
A dream that only drowned me
88
Deep in sorrow, wondering why
89
Oh come let us adore him
90
Abuse and then ignore him
91
No matter what, don't let him be
92
Let's feed upon his misery
93
Then string him up for all the world to see
94
I'm sick of all you hypocrites
95
holding me at bay
96
And I don't need your sympathy
97
to get me through the day
98
Seasons change and so can I
99
Hold on Boy, No time to cry
100
Untie these strings, I'm climbing down
101
I won't let them push me away
102
Oh come let us adore him
103
Abuse and then ignore him
104
No matter what, don't let him be
105
Let's feed upon his misery
106
Now it's time for them to deal with me
107
VI. The Inevitable Summer
108
(Instrumental)
109
VII. The Crimson Sunset
110
I'm much wiser now
111
A lifetime of memories
112
run through my head
113
They taught me how
114
for better or worse, alive or dead
115
I realize there's no turning back
116
Life goes on the offbeaten track
117
I sit down with my son
118
Set to see the Crimson Sunset
119
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
120
Many years have come and gone
121
I've lived my life, but now must move on
122
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
123
He is my only one
124
Now that my time has come
125
Now that my life is done
126
We look into the sun
127
'Seize the day and don't you cry,
128
Now it's time to say good-bye
129
Even though I'll be gone,
130
I will live on, live on.'
