Did Steve write the lyrics for BRITISH LION?

british lion - Elysium

All the years gone to waste
Are nothing to the tears I taste?
We all need a friend to guide us
Life is hell when you're alone

A river running from your eyes
We're all searching for a prize
Caught between a life's addiction
Bordering a crucifixion

Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Pay the price for the things we do
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe

Black clouds gather from the past
Release me from the stone I cast
Wonder stands in front of me now
I can see such beauty inside you

Only made of skin and blood
Hold on to the things we love
Walk the line, but walk it straight
Elevate yourself to new horizons

Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe

Don't forsake me now
Don't leave me on my own
Need you more than I can say
So afraid to feel this way
 
In Greek mythology, the Elysian Fields were called the afterlife dwellings for the souls of heroes and virtuous people.
 
British lion - Native son

Don't be afraid to walk in the footprints
Where others have failed
Strangers surround you, taunt and betray you
Bring you down
These are the free words
These are the true words I give to you
Just walk in the footprints
Don't be afraid to stand your ground, my son
 
British lion - Spit fire


We used to run through golden fields
That sway like oceans on the morning breeze
And I would stand there looking up
Relive the stories how things used to be

Burning dark fires in the clouds
Thunder can't mistake that sound

You feel the dream, you live the pain
A never-ending fire in our veins
Been here before, open the door
The one that takes me back, to where you lie

Father, had so many dreams,
They took them away from him

Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise

Where joined by fate, a bond by blood
You give me strength, can you feel my love
A flame will burn through mist and fog
A serenade I hear that siren song

I have so many dreams
Don't take them away from me

Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise

And we were born to ride the storm
But some of us, we walk alone
Hear the sound, a distant song
Through wind and rain, I walk alone

Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new day will rise

Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's blackness inside your eyes
And men behind mask stealing our thoughts
From the ashes a new day will rise

Look away, look away, away from the storm
There's a sadness in your eyes
Look away, look away from the unknown
From the ashes a new son will rise
