Lastly, a compilation was included, called "Metal God Essentials, Vol. 1," which not only had the fans' favorite Halford tunes, but also had new songs called "Forgotten Generation" and "Drop Out."

In The Morning
Halford Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A few more hours
I'll turn away and won't be found
All your dreaming
Your wish is falling
I'm going away to someplace
I'm searching, need some time
To, see what
I know what I want
And I can see it
I've been along this road before
I can't remember
I need an answer
And yesterday is over
Now, I'm
Chasing all the way the time
Ties, wounded memories
That tell what I feel
I lie awake and dreaming
Was I, calling out
I'm falling, in my dying garden
Take what you feel, when you're lonely
In the morning, when your waking
I will always be with you
The lyrics to Halford's song "In the Morning" seem to be describing a situation in which the singer needs to leave for a while to search for something, but is uncertain what it is they are looking for. They are perhaps running from something, as they mention needing to distance themselves from someone's dreaming and falling wishes. The use of the phrase "yesterday is over" suggests that the singer is looking for a fresh start or a new direction. The lyrics also hint at a sense of loneliness and uncertainty, with lines like "I lie awake and dreaming / Was I, calling out / I'm falling, in my dying garden / Take what you feel, when you're lonely."
Despite the uncertainty expressed throughout the song, the final line takes a hopeful turn. The singer reassures someone that they will always be with them in the morning when they wake up. This could be interpreted in a romantic context, with the singer promising their loyalty and support to their partner. Alternatively, it could be interpreted more broadly as a message of hope and assurance to anyone who may be feeling lost or lonely.
Overall, the lyrics to "In the Morning" capture a sense of searching and uncertainty, but ultimately end on a hopeful note of reassurance and promise.
Line by Line Meaning
I'll tell you something
I have something to reveal to you
A few more hours
It won't be too long from now
I'll turn away and won't be found
I'll depart and won't be around
All your dreaming
All of your hopes and aspirations
Your wish is falling
Your desire is diminishing
I'm going away to someplace
I'm leaving for a different location
I'm searching, need some time
I'm seeking and require time
To, see what
To understand what
I can find
I can discover
I know what I want
I am aware of what I desire
And I can see it
I can envision it
I've been along this road before
I have traversed this path previously
I can't remember
I cannot recollect
I need an answer
I require a response
And yesterday is over
Yesterday has concluded
Now, I'm
Presently, I am
Chasing all the way the time
Pursuing time constantly
Ties, wounded memories
Connections to agonizing recollections
That tell what I feel
Which convey my emotions
I lie awake and dreaming
I remain awake, envisioning
Was I, calling out
Did I cry out
I'm falling, in my dying garden
I'm descending in my withering oasis
Take what you feel, when you're lonely
Accept what you sense when you're alone
In the morning, when your waking
During the morning, when you rise
I will always be with you
I will perpetually be by your side
