That's Electric Wizard. I only know because my brother is a complete fan of theirs and won't shut-up about it. I personally find their music annoying with an excess of signal bleed. I couldn't tell you the name of the song, however.

 

 (keep forgetting my new lyric):

Watch it now
The eagle in the sky
How he dancin' one and only
You - lose yourself
No not for pity's sake

THE STRAWBS -  LAY A LITTLE LIGHT ON ME 

Well, try this (that would be easy):

Now we're cruising above the horizon
Never knowing if we will return
In a moment we'll rain down destruction
And we'll justify all that we burn

It must be GENESIS - Guide Vocal (from "Duke" album)

Try this:

There's a thief on a
summer's night
across an ocean
who sees another life
fading away

Steve Hackett - Icarus Ascending

"No puppet, no liar, won't bend my lips to wire - No
Don't pressurize me so
Don't gamble, with my life, or you won't live to do it twice
Oh take some good advice from me
And let the wires rock"
"Without prog, life would be a mistake."

The Doors ... Petition the Lord with Prayer

How about this one:

Tell me things that our forefathers have tried
I'll tell you there's nothing in life to touch the birth of a child,
I want these words to linger on and on for I was there beside my loved one

Jon Anderson's Animation was one of my first progressive songs. But about the Doors song I asked: album is Soft Parade but does it have a song called Petition the Lord With Prayer? I'm not quite sure about the song title but I guess it's 'Soft Parade' -? (By the way, my LP copy of Soft Parade is half Doors, half Tim Buckley's Happy/Sad! At first listening I thought it was Jim Morrison singing, only the musical style made me wonder if there's a mistake. But a nice introduction to a great troubadour.)

Hmmm... What about this: "their children kneel in Jesus 'til they learn the prize of nails, whilst all around our Mother Earth waits balanced on the scales"

I stand corrected, Matti. The Doors track is indeed The Soft Parade.

And your next lyric has my really stumped.
