Going under, there’s no time to be afraid
Ever wondered how we came to be this way?
Going under, only tunnels light the way
No more laughter, only devastation there.
All around us, the distress we caused to Earth
We sought power, all we found was our disgrace.
Calling all the stations left
Calling all stations.
Going under, there’s a city worth our pain
Fresh air, water; we must move and make our way.
3. Let’s follow Richie!
Dave
Everyday tunnels threat to pose a new danger
We escape, we prevail, survival essential.
Our Earth was at stake, we paid no attention
Underground now we dwell, relying on strangers.
And you know that in a single day,
Although Richie helps, all the monsters just come along.
And you know that even though he cares,
As he leads the way all the monsters just come along.
And you see that in the face of death
even when we’re safe, all the monsters just come along.
And you feel that even when you cave
When you lose all faith, all the monsters just come along, come along, come along.
All the air reeks of flesh and lights are prudential.
Blood runs red and they smell our fear when we face ‘em.
And you know that in a single day,
Although Richie helps, all the monsters just come along.
And you know that even though he cares,
As he leads the way all the monsters just come along, come along, come along, come along.
And you know that in a single day,
Although Richie helps, all the monsters just come along.
And you know that even though he cares,
when we lose our way all the monsters just come along, come along...
...in the face of death
Even when we’re safe, all the monsters just come along.
And you feel that even when you cave
When you lose all faith, all the monsters just come along, come along, come along.

5. Plight
Alistair
There is nothing left to do
There’s something in the air.
And there’s nothing I can see,
The wraiths’ll still be there.
No one can see the surface
No one is sane.
And now I’m waiting for the rain.
There is nothing left to do
The wraiths control the air.
We could try but it will be
Impossible to stay.
I see the lights approaching
I see the gate
In Bálad we’ll be free again.
There is nothing left to do
There’s something in the air.
And we’re longing to be safe
The atmosphere is dead.
We’re there!
6. Rush to the gates
Brad
This time a little for me
This time we stand or fall.
This time we see the morning
Next time I’ll save your soul
Thousands of people strolling
They feel so safe and warm;
Food is abundant, plenty
But they don’t know what’s wrong.
You know it’s time to (maybe try to)
Fight and to stay alive,
Every single fight is a war.
If you’re protecting (maybe you should)
Come and give us a hand,
Surely we can use you some more.
All city guards are yelling
“No one must stay at home”
Women and children praying
They know here comes the foe.
You know it’s time to (maybe try to)
Fight and to stay alive,
Every single fight is a war.
If you’re protecting (maybe you should)
Come and give us a hand,
Surely we can use you some more.
You know it's time (maybe try to)
Rush to the gates at once
Never have we seen such a foe.
The sun is shining (now it's time to)
End with a battle cry
Our enemy is no more.
7. Elusive Victory (instrumental)
8. Some thinking
Brad
All this time we just didn't realise
Something's wrong, and nothing's right
There is nothing left to do // There is nothing left to do
Ahh... // There's something in the air
And there's nothing I can see // And there's nothing I can see
Ahh... // Our time will nearly end
//
// Now everyone is dying
// And that's a shame
// Yet we must fight tonight again.
Dave
There is nothing left to do // There is nothing left to do
Ahh... // There's something in the air
And the day we came to realise // And the day we came to realise
Ahh... // It was too late.
9. Too Late (our reckless behaviour brought this)
Brad
Now it's time to find the answers delayed
We must go back to times when we failed
To see why we destroyed our faith
A flashback is the perfect way!!
I bought Fantastic Freak Show then after listening to about half of it I bought their entire discography. Don't make my mistake, just buy the discography first, you won't regret it. These guys are incredible, one of the best Psy-Rock bands I've heard. On top of that, these are almost all 24/48 and 24/96 recordings so their collection price is an amazing bargain. I have no clue how I missed these guys until now but I have a bunch of listening to do right now. :-) Dean Kimball
