If I could hold
Hold out for now
With these icecaps melting down
With the transistor sound
And my Chevrolet terraplane
Going around around around
Come on little gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
Your brains are bored like a refugee from a house that's burning
And the heat wave's calling your name
She's got a cactus crown
With a dot dot dot on her brow
And she speaks inside a cloud
With her countenance turning around
It hit me like a gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
I'm pulling out thorns
Smokestack lightning out my window
I want to know what I've lost today
Come on little gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
Your body's bored
Like a refugee from a house that's burning
The weekend comes, I'm gonna see my baby.
I close the door and leave everything behind
I hit the road, the sun is shining down so brightly
Five more miles and I'm lying in her arms.
Now her motions turn me on, and I'm gonna sing my song.
Free time is one of the things that I love,
Free time is one of the things I enjoy.
The sun goes down, we're gonna see a movie.
How happy life could be without any work.
There ain't no doubt we're gonna have a party.
'Til Monday morning, noone can disturb.
[Instrumental]
You know who I am, show you a land
Where you can be free, can get your relief.
Space is all yours, desires come true.
Love of your life waitin' for you.
I got no time for wasting all my day,
Come on and follow, follow me away.
Spaceeater - you're losing control
Spaceeater - and I own your soul
I'll make you happy ain't no lie,
Come eat my space, you're gonna fly.
Let me control your senses,
And lose your mind, your worries inside.
A little bit, a little bit,
You're drowning in a lustry whirl,
be superman or wondergirl.
Oh, we fly away on supersonic dreams,
we ride on universal starshine,
Through space.
I got no time to stand and waste my day.
Come on and follow, follow me away,
Spaceeater
We're getting closer to the final phase
You better do what you can
No you won't stand the chance to win the race
You better leave 'cause I'm the man
I know you think you nearly got it made
I think you life in a daydream
There's no way out
I'm gonna give you a nightmare
You'll get a lesson that you'll never forget
You're turn is over,
You're turn is over now! Ha ha ha!
You're turn is over,
You're turn is over now! Ha ha ha!
Think I better keep an eye on you
And on every move you make
Cause you're a motherfucking liar
And everyone knows you're fake!
And I don't give a shit of what you say
You find yourself in the dead end, there's no way out
Poor pitiful you!
You'll get a lesson you'll never forget!
You're turn is over,
You're turn is over now! Ha ha ha!
You're turn is over,
You're turn is over now! Ha ha ha!
I'm feeling free - you can't stop me
You can't hold me - I'm so restless
So you think you can escape your fate
Let me tell you, sucker it's too late
So I know you gonna make my day
So you think you can save your ass, but you're gonna get it screwed!
Take a look at yourself, you're nothing more than a little fool
It doesn't matter what you say, it doesn't matter anyway
You haven't got a single clue
Your turn is over and I'm through with you!
I say hey, hey, hey your turn is over now -
listen now, listen now, listen
I say hey, hey, hey your turn is over now -
you gotta take it as a matter of fact!
I say hey, hey, hey your turn is over now -
geh doch kacken du Penner!
I say hey, hey, hey your turn is over now -
ha ha ha
Do you remember the days
when living was meant to be free
not looking for fortune
not looking for fame
the beauty of life was the key
We lived as one to conquer the world
a thousand dreams to come true
we knew in the end we'll find
the meaning of life and the truth
So proud and full of passion
we formed a better world
we fought against opression
and winsdom was our sword
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbow's end
lives meant to share
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On the sad wings of destiny
we're kings without a throne
if you believe in unity
believe 'cause you're not alone
sad wings of destiny
the haunting thoughts of pain
the world's a patient, majesty, but believe
the time, the time will take its toll
Now its the time for a change
the days of your childhood are gone
the fool and the wise man
will burn at the stake
confusion remaining too long
Violence and hate I won't see anymore
the innocent victims of fate
the prophets have written
their words on the wall
wake up before it's too late
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbow's end
lives meant to share
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On the sad wings of destiny
we're kings without a throne
if you believe in unity
believe 'cause you're not alone
sad wings of destiny
the haunting thoughts of pain
the world's a patient, majesty, but believe
believe if you won't change your mind
all will remain the same
and soon we'll find a common end
On the path of glory
we searched the rainbow's end
lives meant to share
where's the sign that we'd sent?
On the sad wings of destiny
we're kings without a throne
if you believe in unity
believe 'cause you're not alone
Sweet child of innocence
are you drowning in your tears?
the time has come for you my friend
don't hide from evil made by our own hands
let us try to fly again
one day we will rise again
on wings of hope to be free...
[Music: Hansen, Scheepers, Kusch, Wessel, Schlachter, Lyrics: Hansen]
Lookin' for a lady, walkin' through the bar
Supercool 'n' easy, he's a superstar
Talkin' to the cutie, looking pretty shy
"Move your hips around and make me smile"
"I'm the one you're looking for
'cause I am the guy"
She just turns around and says:
"Kiss my ass goodbye"
Who do you think you are, to look at me like this
Who do you think you are, not a single kiss
Who do you think you are, you're talking much to loud
Who do you think you are, get back into the crowd
Now he's getting closer, gettin' in my sight
Oh my God he's seen me, it's too late to hide
Heavy Metal monkey, silly looks and walk
Rock 'n' Roll pretender, now he starts to talk
"Nice to see you. how's it going?"
bla bla bla
I say why don't you turn around
And get back to the bar
Who do you think you are, to talk to me like this
Who do you think you are, I got you on my list
Who are you, you're talking much to loud
Who do you think you are, get back into the crowd
[Solos: Kai, Uwe, Dirk, Uli, Dirk, harmony both, Kai]
Who do you think you are, to talk to me like this
Who do you think you are, I got you on my list
Who do you think you are, you're talking much to loud
Who do you think you are, get back into the crowd
[Instrumental]
I'm watching the mountains I'm watching the sea
Observing the creatures I am lost - set me free
Across the heavens I made my way
I've seen empires rise and blown away
I have arrived at my destiny but after all
there's just emptiness in me
Out in the darkness - I am going mad
Where are the others - there's silence in my head
`Cause I'm a watcher in the sky
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
I'm trapped in this nightmare
Endless tortures and pain, milleniums have gone by
Uhhh, it drives me insane
Who am I now?
I'm not man - I'm not machine
I gave my life away for the Iron Savior dream
`Cause I'm a watcher in the sky
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
(Piet) Hooked to the circuits of a lifeless, cold machine
Lost in a world of artificial means
Ripped out of my body
I'll stand the test of time
Am I perpetual? - am I devine?
I'm a watcher in the sky
My soul has drowned in the tears I cannot cry
I'm the watcher the chosen one but I am lost in time
I'm a watcher in the sky I've seen the years go by
I am the chosen one
Out in the cold my systems overload and I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
Watching the mountains, watching the sea, watching the creatures
You'll never be free
Watcher in the sky
[Originally performed by HELLOWEEN, written by Kai Hansen]
I was born in the rotten part of the town
The biggest trap I had seen
Wherever you'll go and wherever you'll get to
Evil is all around
My mother's a bitch my father's a killer
Gettin' paid for murder
Fightin' and strugglin' the whole day
The only way to survive
[Bridge:]
Wanted from law but they'll never catch me
I'd much rather die in this bloody war
[Chorus:]
Fly high touch the sky
Never know the reason why it ends
Victim of fate!
I had to kill people to save my own life
I don't wanna go to hell
I started at the bottom
I'm headin' for the top
I'll never return I'll never go back
To that goddamn part of the town
Headhunters won't get me 'cause I'm not stupid
But this ain't the life I dreamt of
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
What now lonely man who's standing
In the shadows of the streets
You're left alone with no helpin' hand beside you
You hide from the daylight living in darkness
You got no friends you can trust nobody
Except for yourself
The only shade that's beside you
Is the shade of Lucifer
Laughing with a satanic smile
And his friend Death sharpens his sickle
You don't wanna die, do you? But you will
You will burn in hell!
[Chorus]
Fly high, touch the sky, you will die!
Victim Of Changes lyrics
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain
Don't you know you're driving me insane
You're tryin' to find your way through life
You're tryin' to get some new direction
Another woman got her man
She won't find no new connection
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
Takes another look around, you're not goin' anywhere
You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care
You're tryin' to find your way again
You're tryin' to find some new...
Another woman's got her man
But she won't find a new...
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
You 'bin foolin' with some hot guy
I want to know why is it why
Get up get out you know you really blew it
I've had enough, I've had enough, good God pluck me
SOLO
Once she was wonderful
Once she was fine
Once she was wonderful
When she was mine
Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore
Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore
Changes, changes, changes, changes
Victim of changes
He who found a way to leave to somewhere far from now
Traveling in his time machine a dream that had come true
Fly my friend, you will see, something called reality
I feel good, I'm alright, doing what I please - I travel time
Far beyond the rising sun - I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs - back to the past again
I just want to save the universe for all mankind
He wants to save the future of the earth
Step by step surroundings change as years go passing by
He only stops to gaze a little while
I push the button further on, I just can't get enough
I know I will return again but still I'm movin' on
Far beyond the rising sun - I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs - back to the past again
As I movin' on I see things to come,
I see fears and I hear laughter
Curiosity, comin' over me,
what is destined and what will happen
And I see the lies and I hear the cries
and the marchin' of the people
As they go to war, heaven knows what for -
God I think I've had enough now
Too late, too late - I can't go back no more!
I lost control of the engine
No light, no light -
can't see where I have gone can't see where I have gone to
Where am I now -
stranded in time
So many years have passed since I had gone
and I have seen what's gonna be
But now I know it is useless to travel on
And I will return to the time and peace I belong to
Far beyond the rising sun - I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs - back to the past again
Far beyond the rising sun - I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs - back to the past again
When you're drowning,
when you're freezin',
when you're feeling cold
There's a light in the darkness
as the elder always told.
When the winter's coming closer
and the autumn's passing by,
Then the world will sink in slience
and I think we all should try.
Oh, I wanna live my life in a fairy tale
Where the end is always good and never sad.
Show me the way to another world
Where the sun is always shining in the and
And we fight back the tears, and we lose our fears,
Let the world remain in silence for a while
Sun in our minds in a world full of ice,
Let the silence remain for a little while.
Somebody came and slammed the door,
took the feelin' away from our hearts.
And the horror took hold of a place
in our hearts filled with love.
What is left behind the ice,
behind the make up and the lies
Tell me what goes on inside our minds,
There is a hole in our sky,
getting bigger, growing wide
No more answer, but we hold the line
See and hear what we have done to us all,
we wanna be free more than anything,
Do you hear what I say to you?
We will make it through, the sun shall shine.
Hear the words we say and see the light of day
We never will be free until the sun is shining for us all
Carry on, carry on and make our dreams come true
And for a little while we stay together
Carry on, carry on, may all our lovin' stay
And for a little while we stay together, forever
Together, forever.
Music: Hansen, Wessel
Lyrics: Hansen, Scheepers
We follow our instince, we're livin' in between,
The struggle of the races continues on the scene.
A million miles above us the spirit is unseen,
Beyond our small horizons it's got a perfect dream.
Bridge/ Chorus:
We travel through the ages, we follow our dreams
But the spirit of a free world is the final dream.
The sun, the wind and water all we really need,
We waste our time on fighting to satisfy our greed.
Bridge/Chrous:
We travel through the ages, the world remains obscene
But the spirit of a free world is the final dream.
We're about to lose control now, the prophecy is clear,
Does it help to sigh and hope with sentimental fear?
S.O.S. no more lifeboats here.
If I could ask the maker about the master plan
Could he give an answer, would I understand?
Bridge/ Chorus:
Our ignorance will drive us on, the world remains obscene
When you're drowning,
when you're freezin',
when you're feeling cold
There's a light in the darkness
as the elder always told.
When the winter's coming closer
and the autumn's passing by,
Then the world will sink in slience
and I think we all should try.
Oh, I wanna live my life in a fairy tale
Where the end is always good and never sad.
Show me the way to another world
Where the sun is always shining in the and
And we fight back the tears, and we lose our fears,
Let the world remain in silence for a while
Sun in our minds in a world full of ice,
Let silence remain for a little while.
Somebody came and slammed the door,
took the feelin' away from our hearts.
And the horror took hold of a place
in our hearts filled with love.
What is left behind the ice,
behind the make up and the lies
Tell me what goes on inside our minds,
There is a hole in our sky,
getting bigger, growing wide
No more answer, but we hold the line
See and hear what we have done to us all,
we wanna be free more than anything,
Do you hear what I say to you?
We will make it through, the sun shall shine.
Hear the words we say and see the light of day
We never will be free until the sun is shining for us all
Carry on, carry on and make our dreams come true
And for a little while we stay together
Carry on, carry on, may all our lovin' stay
And for a little while we stay together, forever
Together, forever.
I crawl across the floor never see the light
Only shadows on the wall
Somebody said there's reality behind
But I'm afraid to turn and fall - oh no
Set me free - for eternity
And now they talk about my destiny again
I hear their footsteps in the dark
But then again there was the silence and the pain
Uh lord that made me feel so lost
Heal me - get out of here
Save me - my world's an illusion
I'm still inside the cave imprisoned in on mind
And silhouettes on the wall
I have to turn around to see what's goin' on
Cause what I saw was never all!
Just a move is the solution
it's not enough to stand and stare
Leave the cave and find the reason
For the cross you have to bear
Never, never, never,
Never return to the principle
Never, never,
Never return to the principle
Never, never,
We will never return to the principle
We lay our souls into your hands
and our freedom remains
We ride on wings of hope
and our star will rise again
Run before you die -
can't you hear the warning
No regrets tonight - now your end is coming
It's your sacrifice - to destroy your body
Now you pay the price -
raging fury lasts forever
Their mission is so glorious
Rising hope in all of us
There we stand united hand in hand
They come from a land far beyond
A million miles behind the sun
They come from nowhere brave inside
Strangers in the night
Time is running by - no more deadly spirals
Now we realize - pray for our survival
Eyes are shining glorious
Marching in victorious
There they stand united hand in hand
They come from a land far beyond
A million miles still riding on
They come from nowhere brave inside
Strangers in the night
They come for freedom, Come to fight
Come to save us all
We are one until we die, Waiting for the call
They come from a land far beyond
A million miles behind the sun
They come to lead us to survive
Strangers in the night
We lay our souls into your hands
and our freedom remains
We ride on wings of hope
and our star will rise again
Music: Wessel
Lyrics: Sheepers
Mankind has found every treasure on earth
It stands to reason that we have got all we need.
Comfort is now a condition of life,
Without any sources our dream will fade away.
To live a better way was our final aim-
Did we ever try?
Start running-
The moment of reason will somebody appear,
But then it's too late to return to stay,
No single person can change the truth,
We have to move forward and do it side by side.
To live a better day is our final aim
And we won't stop tryin
Chorus:
Start running - can't you see the hangmen are comin?
(repeat)
The things we have done to destroy our wolrd are enough.
How long will the madness remain?
We're children of the warriors, we learn from our faults,
Hope is our guiding hand, consience is our force.
Chorus.
[Instrumental]
So now we talk about destruction
a human race that's left to die
nobody ever will believe it
until we face it eye to eye
Let us talk about hell
Our future shines in darkest colours
you'll never change it, never will
ain't nothing left now to believe in
and so we face the overkill
Hey mother mercy leave me be
do you expect me now to cry
Time will wait for noone
Time is short as hell
time, time, time is short as hell
All is lost, into the underworld we fade
until our live is gone
count the cost
then from the darkness whiped away
into the underworld we fade
Where the darkness awaits
Time will wait for noone
Time is short as hell, hell, hell
Time...
Out of the dark
he came without a warning
the guarding light
I didn't see...
on a story tellers night
he spoke his words of wisdom
the tales he told from far beyond
that no one understood
He had the gift of prophecy
he wove a web of mystery
a thousend lifes shone gracious in his eyes
Send me a sign
for too long you kept me waiting
send me a sign
from the eternal skies
send me a sign
send me a sign
He disappeared
in the early haze of morning
and with him left his prophecies
they didn't care...
All the years that passed away
he'slocked inside my head
his tales became reality
the prophecies he said
He was the choosen one to see
his words will burn eternally
it hurts, that no one understands
Send me a sign
for too long you kept me waiting
send me a sign
from the eternal skies
send me a sign
send me a sign
He had the gift of prophecy
he gave a guarding light to me
I know, he set my spirit free
Send me a sign
send me a sign
send me a sign
for too long you kept me waiting
send me a sign
to open their eyes
send me a sign
send me a sign
send me a sign
send me a sign

We drive, we drive, we«re riding on through the universe
We«ve come to reach our destination planet earth
We come, we run, you cannot see us, flying in our
spaceships, shooting «cross the sky
We explore and we all know what this is about

So many light years we have travelled far from home
Someday we«ll be there I know
Shine on, Rising star
We travelled such a long way
But still you seem so far
Shine on, Rising star

A declining world, no future, no hope
We were passing the point of no return
So many light years, still we travel on and on
And someday we will call you home

Leaving the planet, we're coming to burn
Fight for the nation, we know there will be no return
Interstellarian, galactical wars
Now we are feeling we got no...
We got no remorse
Stellarian fighters are ready to strike
She alien vessels are burning tonight
So glorious we'll fly like the eagle in the sky
And I know it's gonna be victory
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
The alien tyrants will knock at your door
They come for a reason and they will be coming for more
- yes, they will -
No conversation, agreements to make
Eyes that are gleaming are twisting and sealing your fate
Now it's the time for us all to strike back
All systems prepare for the final attack
So glorious we'll fly like the eagle in the sky
And I know it's gonna be victory
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
We're solid
We're solid
So glorious we'll fly like the eagle in the sky
And I know it's gonna be victory
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
We're solid - erasing the alien planet
We're solid
We're solid
I see your picture, laughter from yesterday
Silence all around me, except the voice from the TV
And I still can't believe it's over
But time will heal all wounds I know
We sail on to dreamland, we'll meet there one day
We share our feelings, we'll be okay
Staring out the windows, dreaming of the past
The good times and the bad times, they are here to last
And I hope it's getting better
Cause time will heal all wounds, I know
We sail on to dreamland, we'll meet there one day
We share our feelings, we'll be okay
One day
Headache in the morning from wasted nights before
Welcome to the real world, knocking at the door
And I believe it's getting better
And there's one thing that I do know
We drive, we drive, we're riding on through the universe
We've come to reach our destination planet earth
We come, we run, you cannot see us, flying in our spaceships, shooting
cross the sky
We explore and we all know what this is about for us all
So many light years we have travelled far from home

[Instrumental]
Much too long I've been a prisoner here
The hour has come to break out
Shackled and chained almost goin' insane
It's better to live on the run Set me free, set me free
Send me a sign, wanna leave it all behind
I'll be leaving the hands of doom
Rearrange the master plan, take the future in my hand
To be free and not trapped anymore
[Chorus]
Ride the sky, ride the sky Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
I have to think for myself and then act
In conformity of my own thoughts
No one should tell what's wrong and what's right
Why don't you leave me alone
Set me free, set me free
[Chorus]
[Solo: both/K/both/M]
[Chorus]
Searching every day, looking every way
Trying to make a connection, to find a piece of the action
Like the hungry poet, who doesn't know
He is close to perfection, choice is the question
Moonlight night after moonlight night
Side by side they will see us ride
But if they cared to look, than they would see
It's our return to fantasy, fantasy, fantasy
Fantasy, fantasy, fantasy
Can you understand, that in every man
There's a need to unwind, that's never been defined
Somewhere deep within, there's another being
You are somehow abusing, by the person you're using
Moonlight night after moonlight night
Side by side they will see us ride
But if they cared to look, than they would see
It's our return to fantasy, fantasy, fantasy
Fantasy, fantasy, fantasy
Travelling faster than lightning
Closer than ever before
We can go on for you, and take you nearer to
The legend of mystery from the beginning of time
Dreaming... TIME... Dreaming
We can return to the land of the good and the kind
TIME... Dreaming... TIME... Dreaming
Why don't you come to our party and open your minds
In another place, there's a newer face
Like an unfinished painting, your creator is waiting
The brush and pen describe, what it is inside
That will set your mind thinking, while the others are sinking
Moonlight night after moonlight night
Side by side, they will see us ride
But if they cared to look, than they would see
It's just our return to fantasy, fantasy, fantasy, oh yeah
Fantasy, fantasy, fantasy
[Instrumental]
Out of the valley of death
the man turns his back
stares up to the hills, his eyes burning red
he licks his palm, with brown dried blood
turns, graining teeth, up to his lord
The darkness of the night
turns bright at his cry
so quiet but deadly
Burning deep within, and now he will begin
he cries out to his lord forevermore
It's the razorblade sigh
shooting up to the sky
blood on the wings, one of the kings
there's a burning within
when the storm closes in
he is one of a kind, in the hands of time
razorblade
His raging fire burns you with desire
as you're taken down into his gravity
he wants you now, into his masterplan
and he'll be taking you into his dignity
Tires are burning on the way through hell
fallen angel set me free
wheels are turning, take me far beyond
Holding out my hands in victory
It's the razorblade sigh
shooting up to the sky
blood on the wings, one of the kings
there's a burning within
when the storm closes in
he is one of a kind, in the hands of time
razorblade, razorblade
Death angel is coming
You see him ride across the land
time in his hands
The darkness of the night
turns bright at his cry
it's burning deep within
he cries for more
As I awake
at the end of the road there's a rainbow
slowly he'll fade, the drawning of time
on the wings of the razor
As I awake
at the end of the road there's a rainbow
slowly he'll fade away the drawning of time
on the wings of the razorblade
I see a hole in the sky
But don't ask me why I'm so down and so lonely
No one will understand why
There's a voice in my head and I know it's the only
I see the children play, with fire in their eyes
And when the day begins
..Another day in life
CHORUS
I'm standing tall 'cause I won't fall
'Cause I'm no stranger to myself
I see horizons in my sky
'Cause I'm no stranger to myself
Days full of joy
Are divin' down the pain
Into the sun, a mother's son
Is just about to fly
I see the morning come, with fire in my eyes
And when the day begins
..Another day in life
CHORUS
SOLO: Kai / both
I see the morning come, with fire in the sky
And now the day begins
..another day in life
I'm standing tall 'cause I won't fall
'Cause I'm no stranger to myself
I see horizons in my sky
'Cause I'm no stranger to myself
No,no, I'm no stranger to myself
Music/Lyrics: Hansen
Voices are calling from somewhere below
Melting on the eastern shore
Rain is falling down on me,
Been waiting for eternity...
I'll be there!
Freedom for us all!
And I wonder why, why my heart still yearns
And I wonder why, why the earth still turns
And I wonder why, why the sky turns black
Still I wonder why, but there is no turning back
For all eternity, for all the world to see
We're riding high across the wind
And when the storm begins, to wash away all sins
We'll find a place where we'll begin
There's something wrong with the world today
Only the people that are fighting for...
...A better place in the world today,
They don't believe that they gone too far,
...They're falling down
By moonlight there's a way... for rebellion
Here, the world has gone astray... revolution
now, the time has come to pray... halleluja
Deep, inside our minds we wait... for rebellion
Here in the dreamland we will not obey the masters
...And the earth still turns but I'm on my way
He is on the way, as my heart still yearns
...I'm on my way, now he is on the way,
And I cry for more
Yes, I'm on the way, now he is on the way,
Gonna find the secret wall
I have seen the secret dreams
Of those who know eternity
And makes me feel like a shadow sneaking in
In my sleep I'm searching for a way to find
The open door leading me to where it all begins
There's nothing wrong with the world today...
Chorus / Solo: Kai
Now I'm riding through the air
Going to where no one dares
On the way I'll cross the line forevermore.
For once in life I do not care
Nothing matters, now I dare
On the ride I'll cross the line
Forever to be frr
Solo: Dirk
Have no fear, Rebellion is here!
I'm riding the wind, don't need your request
You'd never invite me but I will be your guest
Oh no, no don't be afraid of the reaper
It's time to go I call your name and you follow
Fly with me
Take a look around and say you love me
And I will guide you through the golden door
For everything you'll see there is a reason
The big wheel is turning like always before
There is no return from the other side of heaven
For the big wheel turns and the circle must go on
forever more
How do you like your termination day? So far -
Kiss me good bye, cause I must fade away
Oh no, no don't be afraid of your master
It's time to go it's calling your name now you follow
Fly away
Take a look around and say you love me
And I will guide you through the golden door
For everything you'll see there is a reason
The big wheel is turning like always before
There is no return from the other side of heaven
For the big wheel turns and the circle must go on
forever more
Welcome to eternal life, my friend
Now take your seat on your cloud
Enjoy your stay
But always remember...
There is no return
There is no return from the other side of heaven
For the big wheel turns and the circle must go on
forever more
There is no return from the other side of heaven
For the big wheel turns and the circle must go on
forever more
I don't need no money, I will stuck to my ideals.
You better get some money, you better get yourself a deal.
I won't change my habits and throw it all away.
No, no, you better keep it all together for another day.
Money - uh, yeah
It only makes me sick and makes the people turn to fools.
It only gives you power and power makes the rules.
Don't wanna be an asshole that sits on dollar bills.
Ha, ha, ha, I know you'll take it no matter how you feel.
Money - uh, yeah.
Nothing will get for free, illusion or reality,
The mirror of your dreams is made of cash.
It drives me wild and drives me crazy,
Makes me fat, and makes me lazy.
Anything you want, anything you need
If I had a little money I would feel okay.
It is money that rules the world,
it is money that lights the day.
It is money that makes it work,
it is money that makes you live!
Money, money, money, money
Give me money -everybody wants some.
Everybody needs some.
I want more, you want more, we want more, they want more.
Nothing you will get for free, illusion or reality.
I was walking through a misty day, the sky was cold and
grey
An old man came right up to me and said, "I know your
name."
He said he'd like to talk to me only for awhile
I had no plans, so I said OK, and he started with a sigh
and said:
"I've seen a million years pass right away.
I've seen the gods of yesterday, they're old and grey.
If you will fail, there's only one more way."
What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together, from the never ending rain
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again.
He said all life he'd been searchin' for a way to find
the clue
That love will turn the fear to hope, skies of grey to
blue.
"Let the miracle come true my friend", this is what he
said "Let's give ourselves a second chance for another
lap in the race. "And then a million stars will shine to
light our way.
And all the trears from yesterday, ... forever washed
away."
What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together, from the never ending rain
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again.
Take my hand and you will see the mirror of your destiny
So many came to read the signs, to understand their
meaning
Now I see I do not dare, but something's calling me
So many men cannot bread free, the one who will succeed,
I wonder if it's me
What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together, from the never ending rain
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again.
It's a miracle we need
Let hearts unite, so our voices shake the earth
Let us walk away together from the never ending rain
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again
We need a miracle, a miracle, a miracle on earth
Let our hearts cry out for the miracle
Let the stars shine on
For the miracle, the miracle on earth
Our hearts, our hearts shall unite for the miracle
Innocent imprisoned the guilty got away
Got no chance to prove that I'm the wrong one
Got a bad position justice seems to fail
I don't even know what I have done
It was a case of the wrong time and place
The camera was pointing at me
Somebody else was just hiding his face
And they started searching for me
How does it feel, Mr. Outlaw?
I never believed this could be
I have to walk through the outdoor
And search for my right to be free
I believed that justice would never go astray
Never thought the system could be wrong
I have done my duty every single day
There's nothing left for me now to rely on
It was a dawn when they came to my house
Takin' me under arrest
They wouldn't listen I tried to explain an error
Got me in that mess
How does it feel, Mr. Outlaw?
I never believed this could be
I have to walk through the outdoor
And search for my right to be free
It was a case of the wrong time and place
The camera was pointing at me
Somebody else was just hiding his face
And they started searching for me
How does it feel, Mr. Outlaw?
I never believed this could be
I have to walk through the outdoor
From out of space we came on to the earth
From far away on solar beams
A dying race to find survival here
For our kind to plant our seeds
Our analysis of the atmosphere
Was good and so we touched the ground
A rising simple structured life form there
Seemed to be perfect what we'd found
We think in anger of our fallin dream
Our home is now a fading light
The cracks appeared and they where pointing at the end
And so we came to save our lives
Men, Martians and Machines
You were to young to understand our plans
To see the things up in the sky
We were the gods and we have taught you well
And so we found eternal life
We gained control upon our destiny
Our ships were flying everywhere
The cracks appeared our plan was bound to fail again
And now the circle's closing in
Men, Martians and Machines
We can't control our human sacrifice
Again we fear for our lives
The cracks appeared our brains start to distort again
Now we gonna say goodbye
Men, Martians and Machines
Comin' out of misery,
back to the old energy,
takin' part in our daily show.
Think of what has been before,
made a move and slammed the door.
Future will remain in the unknown.
Face the face of the race, try to understand.
Why are we here and what do we want,
The answer is easy, let's spread it around.
Loud and proud, we're gonna say it now,
Live-Life-Easy
Many things to think about,
bring me up or bring me down
A lot of things I hardly understand.
What is good and what is fair,
problems solved, but I don't care
Sometimes it's just getting out of hand.
Face the face of the race, try to understand.
I know that you know that we can be strong
If we pull together, we can get along
Let us fly away, let us praise the days
When the lust for the life is stronger than the fear.
Though we shiver and shake and we sometimes need a break.
It's the lust for life that never disappears.
I see you running
Don't know what you're running from
Nobody's coming
What d'you do that was so wrong
Look back and turn back, look at yourself
Don't be afraid just look at yourself
If you need assistance
Or if all you need is love
There's no point in hidin
Tell me what you're frightened of
You've got a friend, just look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just look at yourself
Look back and turn back, look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just look at yourself
[Hansen]
[the words before music:]
Let's make it about metal this time
Which metal band do you support?
Death Devil!
[spits] Death Devil can't play to save their lives amigo
Yeah agreed
Well, then I don't agree. I think they can play.
They just need a new manager.
Yeah.
Well, anyways, you're going to die.
[Instumental]
Who's controlling all the misery and pain
When the error signs are lighted in the masterhall
And from the start the action is in vein
Cause the beast is always careful to avoid the fall
We crawl up to the skies. We'll never return again
We're the last before the storm
Watching the sun going down on us
We wish we had never been born
To be the last before the storm
Who's ever gonna change the world
I don't understand what we are fighting for
The truth is sad, no lying, we are cursed
I don't really know who ever made the law
We cry on for more, we wonder what's next to the world
We settle the score, we never look back
We're the last before the storm
Watching the sun going down on us
We wish we had never been born
To be the last before the storm
Cry out for the people who don't know the world
They don't understand what they say and they're cursed
Lying for reasons in search for the truth
Mephisto - we comin' down
Mephisto - we comin' down
We cry out for more, we wonder what's next to the world
We settle the score, we never look back
We're the last before the storm
Watching the sun going down on us
We wish we had never been born
To be the last before the storm
When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter where or when or who
There's one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I'll ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed (oh no)
For everything I long to do
No matter where or when or who
There's one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I'll ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
Father forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter where or when or who
There's one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I'll ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
It's a sin
Oh yeah
It's a sin
It's a sin
Sin
Therefore I'm laying down in laughter
mighty, the mightiest life here after
the trip we startet has not finished here
while we think there's not a shade of fear
Black points jump in crossing lines
Insanity and Genius
both two sides are what I find and I know over mine.
Sometimes my womb bears an acteur,
your mind creating tragic factors
you've got knowledge stolen from the sea
you've got wisdom - just stolen knowledge
Black points jump in crossing lines
both two sides are what I find
Insanity not far behind the genius inside
And everyday a dreamer dies
to see what's on the other side
And everyday more dreamers die my friend
while black points jump crossing lines again
[JAPANESE BONUS TRACK]
[Originally performed by HELLOWEEN]
From our lives' beginning on
we are pushed in little forms
no one asks us how we like to be
in school they teach you what to think
but everyone says different things
but they're all convinced that
they're the ones to see
[Bridge:]
So they keep talking and they never stop
and at a certain point you give it up
so the only thing that's left to think is this
[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free
People tell me A and B
they tell me how I have to see
things that I have seen already clear
so they push me then from side to side
they're pushing me from black to white
they're pushing 'til there's nothing more to hear
[Bridge:]
But don't push me to the maximum
shut your mouth and take it home
'cause I decide the way things gonna be
[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free
There's a million ways to see the things in life
a million ways to be the fool
in the end of it, none of us is right
sometimes we need to be alone
[Solo: Kai/Both]
No no no, leave me alone
[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free
Illuminati
You've come to take control
You can take my heartbeat
But you can't break my soul
We all shall be free
Illuminati
You'll never take control
Your new world order
Will lead to none at all
We all stand before you as one
Heaven is for everyone
To be free from the dark
We're the masters of the wind
We're demons left in howl
we're the undefeated warriors
we have heard the call
We're the keepers and the leaders
of the only thing we love
we're the saviours
and protectors from above
In our sky there is no limit
and masters we have none
heavy metal is the only one
Chorus:
'cause it's a heavy metal universe
with a heavy metal sound
masters of the thunder
shake you to the ground.
It's a heavy metal bomber
and it's never going down
flying 'cross the universe
we're heavy metal bound
we're heavy metal bound
With a burning hot desire
like a supersonic blast
we have come to show the world
that we have come to last
There ain't no way to stop us
and you'll never kill our pride
'cause it's not only music
it's a chosen way of life
And our world has got no borders
and in union we all stand
'cause heavy metal is our promissed land
Chorus:
it's a heavy metal universe
with a heavy metal sound
masters of the thunder
shake you to the ground.
It's a heavy metal bomber
and it's never going down
flying 'cross the universe
we're heavy metal bound
we're heavy metal bound.
See my hands held to the sky
let me rock you 'till forever
raise your voice we're soaring high
swear allegance now or never
burning up we build a flame
as we speak the oath togheter
metal is our way forever...
... way forevermore
And our world has got no borders
and in union we all stand
'cause heavy metal is our promissed land
Chorus:
it's a heavy metal universe
with a heavy metal sound
masters of the thunder
shake you to the ground.
It's a heavy metal bomber
and it's never going down
flying 'cross the universe
we're heavy metal bound
we're heavy metal bound.
Too many people, too much trouble,
too many problems in the morn.
Anpther sunrise in the rubble,
another ship sunk by the storm.
Some little angel tries to tell me that it's over.
It's just a bad reflection from above.
The load upon my shoulder makes me stronger, even bolder.
Oh no no, I haven't had enough.
Heaven can wait, 'til another day.
Cause there ain't no reason to leave.
The world is a stage where we all can play.
Another fine reason to live,
and heaven can wait, heaven can wait.
Each day a new reason to give up,
each day another reason to sigh.
A hundred thousand ways to live up,
a hundred thousan ways to try.
Hey, little angel, don't you tell me that it's over.
You're just a bad reflection from above.
The load upon my shoulder gives me reasons to get older.
Tell the boss I haven't had enough.
Our eyes are close but they should be open wide
Let's listen to the voice that's calling from inside.
Let's stay alive and move on, on our way
And heaven can wait, heaven can wait.
Heaven - can wait 'til another day.
Masters are relentless, torture is for slaves
Money, greed and power drives you to obey
Temperature is rising, shakes me to the core
Blood and domination, victims of the law
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I see the demons rising, beyond their sleeping void
Deep and down the masters take them to the light
Their piercing rays are blazing, obliterating fast
All dreams are torn to pieces, vaporized at last
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I scan the dead horizon, illuminated curse
In squished imagination, catastrophies unfurl
Beyond the cataclysm, a dream of Unicorns
The purest heart in heaven, stabbed by poisoned thorns
Bloody angels, searing with fire-turn to dust
All through the millenniums, I've seen the writing on the wall
Into our oblivion, we are the riders on the storm
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
Beware - all dead
No light - all dead
No dreams - all dead
No life - you're dead
When I wake up at the end of the day
The moon comes out, the sun fades away
I get myself out of my bed and cry
Is it really me now - could this be the real thing
Is there someone else to ease the pain
So easy, so easy now, has it really gone too far
It don't matter anyhow, sometimes I feel like an
Echo in the wind, that's not coming back again
I look inside my head and what I see
Are the reflections of the world.
And I see genius and insanity
You're alive - you're part of the show
You came to foresee the signs on the wall
So many tried in vain - they know the truth
Learn - how to live and fight and learn-
How to fight them right and learn - how to give and take it all
You can be strong if you know who you are
The signs on the wall tell you move on before it's too late
Can you see them? Do you want to be the one who's creeping on the floor?
Could it be forever? Could it all be lies?
The chaos is a killer and he knows who will fall
Help me - I need some help
Now is there someone out there
What are you waiting for
You're on the road to nowhere
The only way I know
Maybe I'm wrong, I haven't got a clue
Don't know where I belong - tell me what is true
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Are you out there?
Won't you help me?
Don't know where I would go
Is there real life... forevermore?
And remember... "Keep smiling... Jesus loves you!"
That's what they say...
Can you cry forever?
It's just a matter of taste
But you say, "Do you, do you know what the truth is?"
Think don't think - what can you see
Our life is just a fantasy of someone we will never see
Therefore I break down in laughter
Now as I change my point of view
There's nothing left to make me blue - never again - no more
Come on in my friend and join the ball
Everything is beautiful - even the band - it's magic
Imagine you're superstar you gonna fly
You gonna go far - so far
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me
Heal me! Heal me! Heal me!
Now... that all seems so quiet
and we all have survived
but after all
still we fear
the hand of fate... tonight
Men on the mountain
from hell you came to destroy
the realm of our freedom
endangered to fade in the void
Now they are back on the earth
taking their wrath to our land
an ocean full of darkness awaits
we will resist, fight until the end
And down belou the dark lord awaits
to fight our souls with hate
our hearts with rage
10.000 dreams for glory rise
now they are awaiting
the hand of fate tonight
So we have gathered here
beyond the endless skies
and we are marching on and on
forver more
for the dark lord - he must fall
Out on the edge of the world
the wasted years are coming to an end
the oceans of evil shall fade
master of doom - we're taking it back again
Deep in our hearts we hear
the call of the wild
spirits of yesterday will fly away
10.000 dreams for glory rise
now they are awaiting
the hand of fate tonight
10.000 dreams for glory rise
now they are awaiting
the hand of fate tonight
10.000 dreams for glory rise
now they we're awaiting
the hand of fate tonight
For no one to see for no one to hear
They fight for our souls without any fear
When injustice done they open their gates
To maintain balance between good and bad
And the winds of freedom blow they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
The guardians of Mankind
Are losin' their faith
'Cause malice and falseness
Spread over the human race
The guardians of mankind
Won't shelter our souls
The rulers of darkness
Will soon gain control
Don't try to deceive them don't try to play false
'Cause losing their favour will be the end of shelter
And as the winds of freedom blow they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
The guardians of Mankind
[ Solo Henjo, Both, Henjo ]
And as the winds of freedom blow they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
The guardians of Mankind
Are losin' their faith
'Cause malice and falseness
Spread over the human race
If guardians of mankind
Won't shelter our souls
The rulers of darkness
Will soon gain control
In the morning your try to recover
But you still got the red in your eyes
Then you get up and look at the mirror
And you see the beast arise
Got a big red nose from the overdose
And somebody else's eyes
And you think to thee is it really me
And you have to realize
The prize that you pay for a moment like this
Is never for high 'cause you still doing it
Don't you know that we all stand in line
Our future dreams are just a waste of time
Our future -is a madhouse and we all are movin' in
Cause the world - needs some action and there nothing left to gain
Take your baggy, things are ready
You only need to come
Join this century's schizoid clan
The rooms are primed and done
The price that you pay for a moment like this
Is never too high cause it perfectly fits
Don't you that we are wasting time
Insanity is just a state of mind
Our future -is a madhouse and we all are movin' in
Cause the world - needs some action and there nothing left to gain
Our world - is a madhouse, in the gutter, come on in
Our world - needs some action satisfaction 'til the end
Our world - we need sex and crime to supply our minds an amazing time,
come on in
Our future - and we party on 'til our life is done
Just to waste our time - 'til the end
As the heat is rising, out there in the past
Fallen angels calling, they have come to last
they are coming out of the dark
Then the horsemen ride out
every thing groes cold
now their armies march in
Out there from the underworld
I do not want my eyes to see
I never wanted to believe
Take me to the gardens of the sinner
Bury me and let me rest in peace
now the time of truth has come for everyone
The fallen angel stands in victory
The final seal was broken
it opened up the gates
for the dark avengers
their anger kills the light and then...
I do not want my eyes to see
I never wanted to believe
Take me to the gardens of the sinner
Bury me and let me rest in peace
now the time of truth has come for everyone
The fallen angel stands in victory
As the seventh angel opened up the seal
his curse brought endless desease
and as the wind carried the deadly seed
to the minds of the doomed
they were gone for the stages of hell
Take me to the gardens of the sinner
take me down and let me rest in peace
now the time for truth has come for everyone
the fallen angel laughs and grins now...
Take me to the gardens of the sinner
Bury me and let me rest in peace
now the time of truth has come for everyone
The fallen angel stands in victory
The world's desperated with irony, hunger and corruption
The eastern world and the africans, too
Are going to repeat the history of all wars
And our industry supplied them with arms
Everybody knows but nobody can do anything against it
The fall of society is on the make
Well sometimes, sometimes I try to draw up a list
I try to find out what they have done
I thought of honorable murderers you know
Like Jonah's hand might wrap around us
And anytime, everywhere in the world ...
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Made of your existence
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Money and our failing
I've waited for... to fire gamma ray!
Without body I could fly around the world
Destroying arms, destroying rockets
Mix all complexions of the whole human race
We all would turn to shallow people
Everybody, everywhere in the whole world
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Made of your existence
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Money and our failing
I've waited for... to fire gamma ray!
Without body I could fly around the world
Destroying arms, destroying rockets
Mix all complexions of the whole human race
We all would turn to shallow people
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Made of your existence
Gamma Ray, Gamma Ray, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray,
Money and our failing
I've waited for... to fire gamma ray!
If you're out there all alone
And you don't know where to go to
Come and take a trip with me to Future World
And if you're running through your life
And you don't know what the sense is
Come and look how it could be, in Future World
We all live in happiness our life is full of joy
We say the world FUTURE WORLD
If you're out there all alone
And you don't know where to go to
Come and take a trip with me to Future World
And if you're running through your life
And you don't know what the sense is
Come and look how it could be, in Future World
We all live in happiness our life is full of joy
We say the world "tomorrow" without fear
The feeling of togetherness is always at our side
We love our life and we know we will stay
[Chorus]
Cause we all live in Future World
A world that's full of love
Our future life will be glorious
Come with me - Future World
You say you'd like to stay
But this is not your time
Go back, find your own way to Future World
Life can be for living
Just try and never give in
"tomorrow" without fear
The feeling of togetherness is always at our side
We love our life and we know we will stay
[Chorus]
Cause we all live in Future World
A world that's full of love
Our future life will be glorious
Come with me - Future World
You say you'd like to stay
But this is not your time
Go back, find your own way to Future World
Life can be for living
Just try and never give in
Tell everyone the way of Future World
One day you'll live in happiness
With a heart that's full of joy
You'll say the world "tomorrow" without fear
The feeling of togetherness will be at your side
You'll say you love your life and you'll know why
[Chorus]
[Solo both/Kai/both]
[Scream it out]
[Chorus]
Lead us not into temptation as we grow in fear
Free your mind from all frustrations as they're drawing near
Take your time, live in sin, choose your alibis
Work all day, die in pain, you're a sacrifice
They're gonna send you down to hell
And put your body on a shelf
This is the island of damnation,
Where all your dreams are gonna fall
Your mind is screaming for salvation
And then your world is gonna blow
Down in the fire below
Below
Silent tears are running down my face into the night
As I'm getting closer to my heart that's full of fright
They lead me down a steep hell spire
And burn my body in the fire
This is the island of damnation,
Where all your dreams are gonna fall
My mind is screaming for salvation
My heart is torn apart and thrown
Into the fire below
Below
They're gonna send you down to hell
And put your body on a shelf
This is the island of damnation,
Where all your dreams are gonna fall
My mind is screaming for salvation
My heart is torn apart and thrown
Into the fire below
The fire below
Go down, to nowhere, go down, down
They take you to Hell
Into the fire
They're taking you down
Into the fire
The fire below
Music / Lyrics: Schlchter
Do you remember
How we used to play like kids in the sun
Nowadays, there's no light to see
And we're feeling cold
So the time has come
To say farewell my friends
My fate is calling loud
Now I know - it can get tough
And I don't you know where I'll be tomorrow
Do you - do you wanna know it
I don't care about it
Somebody said that we could never ever die
Oh what a lie
You will see the light again
We'll all be free someday:
I know - 'cause united we stand
Goodbye my friends, I'm leaving you today
My quest is hard, but I must be on my way
Now, don't ask why
Goodbye dear friends
Solo: Dirk
Don't you try and stop me
All I know is: I have to go!
There'll be no sense in my life at all
If I stay
You will never see it - you will never find it
Oh yes I will!
Someone will take my place if I DIE!
An old man said:
Some years ago; they've tried it all before
Some men of honour left
And searched for that land
They did not return. Now it's up to you
To play a better game - remember
When you're out there
Don't look back at all
Goodbye my firends, I'm leaving you today
The quest is hard,
I hope I'll find a way home one day
Good my friends, I'm leaving you today
The quest is hard
I know I find a way home one day
You will see the light of day
We'll all be free again
All that's left to say is FAREWELL
Now my friend it's time for
To break the spell
Your heart was torn in two
And somebody revealed the wall
Now we stand together
Our fight is to be free
We never will surrender
We ride across the fields
Now it's time to break the silence
And the truth shall be revealed
Take the question mark from your head
Let the fairytale be real
Who will creep inside your mind a night,
Who makes your wildest dream arise?
Who makes you see what you can't see,
While you're awake but in your dreams?
Out of a world we call the twilight zone he comes,
Out of a world where all your reason is a lie.
DREAM HEALER - he makes you see what you can't see
DREAM HEALER - reflecting your identity.
Shout at the morning when the red sunrise awakes,
The call of reality is all you hear.
Gaze at the stars, when the night comes down again
Then you begin to see through all of your fears.
Out of a world where you can see what is inside
Out of a world where all your reason is a lie.
I see red and I see blue,
I see green and I see yellow - yellow lights.
One day black another day white. He's one day quiet
Another day he calls my mama
He's comin' out - he's comin' out
Listen to dreams - they always tell you the truth.
Listen to dreams - it is your heart that's speakin' to you
Listen - listen to the dream healer.
Do you believe in justice
Or so-called co-existence?
What's wrong with politicians?
They give their best for you
The economic's growin'
Some tiny holes above
A little radiation
Wake up this planet fades
You are not watching, you're part of the show
You lost the first prize a long time ago.
WAR - somebody's always starts again
HATE - the seed is growin' in our hands
As time goes by
(We never seem to beat the ones
Who say we can't be free)
As time goes by.
Do you believe in money?
Do you believe in guns?
Do you trust the press, babe?
You'd better judge yourself.
The missiles are launching, the tanks are rollin'
The guns are blazing, the sky turns black!
As time goes by
We never seem to beat the ones
Who say we can't be free
As time goes by
We're getting closer to the end of our ability
As time goes by
Is there a place to run for shelter in a high tech war
As time goes by
Can you believe and trust in God
To help you from above.
Someone is out there he's watching what I do
From far in the distance, his eyes everywhere
I look around me, there's noone that I see
But still I feel someone's controlling my mind
Save your breath and run
You can't escape the one
Time has come, the world lies dying
Our faith has gone, our souls are crying
Resurrecting paradise, cry for freedom
Killing pain, a million lies,
Dethrone tyranny
Forces of evil, they never surrender
Sooner or later the dark aera comes
Crying man on the run
He's searching for freedom but there will be none
Time has come, the world lies dying
Our faith has gone, our souls are crying
Resurrecting paradise, cry for freedom
Killing pain, a million lies,
Dethrone tyranny
And as the world is dying slowly in our hands
We'll ask for reasons until the bitter end
Who brings us all the sadness
Who brings us all the fear
Who spreads disease and misery
And steals our destiny
A poisoned heart of anger
Sowing the seeds of pain
All see the darkened skyline
And feel the deadly reign
Time has come, the world lies dying
Our faith has gone, our souls are crying
Resurrecting paradise, cry for freedom
Killing pain, a million lies,
To hell with tyranny
Damn the Machine
Drilling in the center of my mind
One evil dream
The annihilation of mankind
The stern-faced leaders in their temple of doom
Creating nightmares made for me and for you
Damn the machine
The enemy is stalking in the void
One evil dream
The engine's running faster to destroy
Here come the raiders they're invading us all
We stand in silence with our backs to the wall
Once I believed in the voice of a god
The god of creation is gone
A call from the heart to the god of love
Send us an angel, a sign from above
All of the damned and a silent scream
Save us and damn the machine
The curse - fortold in prophecies is haunting us now
The world - a creeping agony and there's no way out
Caught in illusions I'm screaming in pain
The demon is corroding my brain
A call from the heart to the god of love
Send us an angel, a sign from above
All of the damned and a silent scream
Save us and damn the machine
Now all you sinners
this is the prophecy
a revelation
of your own destiny
you had a dream once
A dream that you have sold
and now my brothers
annihilation is foretold
Will you remember ancient times
when we rode across the air
when the day of judgement comes
and when your world is gonna blow
through your heart and take your soul
in the twilight of the sun
I believe there's no tomorrow
when we all will sink in sorrow
when the day of judgement finally comes
It's the end of the world as we know it
and it's only just begun
the eyes of the world are closin' forever
when the day of the judgement will come
won't you help me now
Now tell me mother earth
oh, what went wrong
in the heart of everyone
do you remember how it had begun
in the desert in the twilight of the sun
all dead and gone
can you heal me, I am not the only one
can you feel me, I don't want to be undone
I'm everyone
Save me from this living hell
I don't wanna know another tale
someone help me through this on the way
hear me now
It's the end of the world as we know it
and it's only just begun
the eyes of the world are closin' forever
when the day of the judgement will come
won't you help me now
All gods creation is finally dead and gone
our revelation, the day of the judgement comes
forevermore I stand alone
the final fury has begun
when the day has come
Guardians of the monsters of the earth
take our lives away
and you forever will be cursed
keepers of the darkness in this world
we will not surrender to the evil of your birth
Hope will never die
and the clear blue sunny sky
will ease the pain
guardians of the monsters of the earth
Lead us not into the temptation
save us from the revelations
I stand alone, I stand alone
I stand alone, inside my head
No one can hear, no one can hear
no one can hear, my little word
holy father take me on your wings of love
I wish that I could be forever free
Its the end of the world as we know it
And its only just begun
the eyes of the world are closin' forever
when the day of the judgement has come
It's the end of the world as we know it
And its only just begun
the eyes of the world are closin' forever
when the day of the judgement has come
won't you help me now
now all your sinners
this is the prophecy
the revelation of your own destiny
sleep well and dream on
the dream that you have sold
and now my brothers
this world is slowly getting cold
Staring out the window
at places in the starlit horizon
I'm waiting in the darkness
for arrival
but the sands of my time are running low
Lost and stranded far away from home
Peeping through window in the darkness
- parted our hearts
glowing turning circles where we go
- no, they won't let go, let go
blindour souls with raging burning madness
Out in the heavens we're ready to fight
the final conclusion is roaring inside
Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
is shinning for us, anywhere in the galaxy
time is right for us to see
the world will long for liberty
the fallen heroes calling me
anywhere in the galaxy
Anywhere... in the galaxy
Anywhere... in the galaxy
And now our blood is boiling
on the edge of life
where is the place for our survivor
Up to the stars, we have come from the night
the final conclusion is roaning inside
Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
is shinning for us, anywhere in the galaxy
time is right for us to see
the world will long for liberty
the fallen heroes calling me
anywhere in the galaxy
Anywhere in the galaxy
we will fight for our destiny
anywhere in the galaxy
we will always run free
Anywhere in the galaxy
anywhere in the galaxy
My life, not yours, is that alright? No fight
I wanna quit it, no way, is that okay?
No don't you dare, don't you dare to touch it with your fingers
You sneak around, pull me down
Gimme no, gimme no, gimme no more bullshit
I know there's something goin' on
You better leave my life alone
You gotta take it as a matter of fact now step aside
We are brothers in rock, we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
With the sisters of rock we can change the world if we try
Cool down, move around
Someday, maybe you will understand it
My way, okay, feels so good
Feels so good, feels so good
To be with all my good friends
Don't you realize you talk too much
I got an easy way of life, don't touch
You gotta face it as a matter of fact, now step aside
We are brothers in rock we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
With the sisters of rock we can change the world if we try
We are brothers in rock we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
With the sisters of rock we can change the world if we try
In the concrete jungle we play rock n' roll
To set us free, to lose control
In the concrete jungle we can break the walls
That hold us down and keep us small
Don't you realize you talk too much
I got an easy way of life, don't touch
You gotta face it as a matter of fact, now step aside
We are brothers in rock we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
With the sisters of rock we can change the world if we try, try
We are brothers in rock we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
With the sisters of rock we can change the world if we try
Music & lyrics: Hansen, Wessel
So now we talk about destruction
'bout the way that we might go
I've seen the headlines in the papers,
The truth is more thatn we should know.
Somebody waek me from this nightmare,
Is this a TV horror show?
We can run and we can walk
We can sit and we can talk.
But we won't stop the war - oh no!
Silent whispers in the ice-machine today
Calling for my brain in silent ways,
No more changes in this world in which we live in
And I don't know who the guy is
Who's talking with the friendly grin.
I never heard of any bargain
I don't know what's goin' on
It doesn't matter anyway
We won't stop the war - oh no!
Somewhere - I might go insane
Somehow - I might lose my brain
Somehow - I might even care
And somehow - I never ever will accept the way
That things are going
We can rund and we can walk
We can sit and ewe can talk
We won't sttop the war.
I don't mind
I don't mind at all
I don't mind to dream a while
I don't mind at all
Every night I'm only waiting,
For the bird of dreams in me
Take me on your wings and guide me
Just take me on a journey far away
I don't mind to fly away to dreamland
The easy way out of a world so cold
I don't mind to say goodbye to all I see around
Only for a while
Out in the dreamworld there's a fortune
It's only waiting to be found
I gaze around and I think this must be magic
'Cause there's no limit all around
I don't mind to stay a while in dreamland
So come on now and take me up with you
If together we would fly for all eternity
I would not refuse
I had it all, I wouldn't mind my friend
To say goodbye, I'm feeling free
To stay or leave is just an easy case
Your wings will always comfort me
I don't mind to stay a while in dreamland
A place to leave my sorrows far behind
Together we will fly through Heaven and through Hell
To no man's land, no man's world
Together we will fly for all eternity
Only you and me
Only you and me
On our way to our land of the free...
Sometimes I ask myself, "Is this the life I want to have?"
Are you still satisfied with the situation
That you've had for many years now?
Time is movin' on your childhood is gone
But you don't realize that the game it isn't won
Blind you think that you're safe at home
But the fall is near if you carry on
18 years of freedom - where have they gone?
Try to understand - you must search to take and give before you're old
You must learn - you must learn to live your life, just on your own
Break out the change is drawing near
Decisions to stop, to turn and stare
Solutions my thoughts are getting clear
I'm leaving and I no longer care
Spread my wings and fly among the clouds,
I feel so free, I've left the world behind
Now I know what I have missed
I'll never give it back, my life's just begun
One chance....
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Throw it all away, I'm not satisfied at all
Take it all away!
Take it all away!
Take it all away!
Mother!
Mother!
Take it all away!
Throw it all away, I'm not satisfied at all
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Throw it all away, I'm not ever gonna be the same again
Music / Lyrics: Hansen
Now I must go
I'll wait for you to follow
No turning back
But there's a light
I've seen it all
Riding through never fall
When all is done
We must be one
I will return
The saviour is calling
He's riding through the night
The only, the holy
Returning from the light
We fall to the ground and we pray
'Cause he's the only one
No demons left in this world
Since he has won
Oh hear what I say...
All men come
To see the king of the world
The time has come for everyone
The saviour stands for all of us
Now praise the one who'll destroy
The evil abyss of the void
His armour
Still shining
Though it's torn from fight
The brave man, redeemer
He brought us back to life
Oh yes he did
Now fall to the ground and pray
'Cause he will come
No demons left in this world
Since he has won
Now, listen to what I say...
All men come
To see the land of the free
The time has come for everyone
The saviour stands for all of us
Now praise the one who'll destroy
The evil abyss of the void
His armour, still shining
Though it's torn from fight
The brave man, he battled
On through the night
His eyes they were gleaming like fire
And he's prepared he's the one
The young man
He raises his head
Up to the land
In the sun
Wherever my spirit may fly
Up to this heavenly fight
I know
That I will return from a mission
Beyond our skies - now

Bridge / Chorus
Music/Lyrics: Hansen
Time has passed in the modern world
Where the madmen live and speak their word.
Life in hand they deal with god.
Put a trademark sign up on everyone.
God bless the children, freedom is their word.
Freedom freedom 'til they learn to obey.
Don't fear the liars, reason is their name.
Reason, reason, play a silly game.
Where will the children go tomorrow?
Is anybody there to claim
That he understands our human game?
We can make a prophecy,
Oh we can't say what is going to be.
Where are we going, and what is our aim?
Freedom, freedom, locked inside our brains
So many answers, reason is their name,
Reason, reasonm, the question will remain,
Where will the children go tomorrow?
Hey you, where do you go? --- Heading for tomorrow
Hey you, where do you go? --- Heading for tomorrow
Hey you, where do you go? --- Heading for tomorrow
Hey you, where do you go!
When we are born, tell me what is our aim?
And what will be when society fails?
we are heading for tomorrow, we don't know if we are near.
When we are gone, tell me what will remain?
And what will be when society fails?
We are heading for tomorrow but we don't know if we're near.
Father can you hear me, did you talk to Mother Earth
What did they say, what did they see ,now ... Is it time for your
rebirth ?
Open up the silent center of your mind,
I now want to know the future of your kind
In the valley of the kings, when the storm breaks loose again
Then the gods return to fight, for the future in their lives
In the valley of the kings
Mother can you hear me, did you talk to Father Moon
I don't want to leave my brothers in this temple of their doom
Open up the silent center of your mind
I now want to know the future of your kind
In the valley of the kings, when the storm breaks loose again
Then the gods will spread their wings
In the valley of the kings
Ra vite, Deus sanktus, Ra vite
Ra vite, revertate, Ra vite
SOLOS : Kai / both / Kai / Henjo
Oh Mother Earth do you believe there is a place for us to go
Come set us free again and let us fly away and give us hope
There'll be a time for us to fly to our thrones up in the sky
In the valley of the kings, when the storm breaks loose again
Then the gods will spread their wings
In the valley of the kings
In a land, far beyond the sun
Rules the darkness, faceless magician
Black towers which raise into the sky
Castle of stones, shadows passing by
Blood is covering the mighty walls
Of those who lost their skin and bones
No one ever saw the light
Oh, slaves of the night
There's a young man, chained on a stake
Lifeless body, he has no strenght to break
His shirt is bloody, his head is hanging down
Decides to die, the ruler took his crown
The wind howles through the emptiness
A different sound as in the past
Screaming echoes in the lanes
Oh, victims of the pain
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to break the chains
The winged horse lands by the one
It snorts and stamps, the escape has just begun
The chains are broken, silence fills the place
He backs the horse with his last ounce of strenght
The white horse rears and spreads its wings
To reach for the sky and search for the kings
The one will lead to win at last
Oh, rulers of the past
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to free the land
The white horse rears and spreads its wings
To reach for the sky and search for the kings
The one will lead to win at last
Oh, rulers of the past
SOLO: Henjo / Kai / Henjo / both / Henjo
The kings return they're armed with mighty swords
To retake the land and banish evil thoughts
They fight against the shadows, capture souls of the dark might
Dethrone the evil ruler to bring sun into the night
The battle takes a heavy toll
But they achieve what they're fighting for
Now the land is free again
Oh, no more blood and pain
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to free the land
But still at night when darkness rules again
Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes
Evil creatures of the expelled magician
Oh, it's a fight you'll never win
High in the machines
Above the earth
We observe your lifeform
We've come for you
Riding the machines
We'll take your souls
Riding the machines
We've come to rule
About 400.000 years ago
When evolution was still on the make
And extraterrestial race
Appeared in our part of the galaxy
Heading straight to Earth
Riding the machines
We'll take your souls
Riding the machines
We've come for you
When they finally landed
They found a planet with perfect survival conditions
A lower lifeform called humans
Considered them as gods
From somewhere out of space
For no one to see, for no one to hear
They fight for our souls without any fear
When injustice is done they open their gates
To maintain balance between good and bad
And as the winds of freedom blows they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
CHORUS
The guardians of Mankind are losin' their faith
'Cause malice and falseness spread over the human race
If guardians of Mankind won't shelter our souls
The rulers of darkness will soon gain control
Don't try to deceive, don't try to play false
'Cause losin' their favour will be the end of all
And as the winds of freedom blow they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
CHORUS
SOLO: Henjo / both / Henjo / both
And as the winds of freedom blow they vanish into haze
The mighty shadow turns away and wisdom conquers hate
The guardians of Mankind are losin' their faith
'Cause malice and falseness spread over the human race
Guardians of Mankind are losin' their faith
'Cause malice and falseness spread over the human race
If guardians of Mankind won't shelter our souls
The rulers of darkness will soon gain control
I'm trapped in a castle of illusions out in space
No more illusions
Out on a journey on a mission for the human race
Terrified I had to realize that I've been talking to the gods of fire
I got nowhere to stand, 'cause I'm a running man to get away
All that I see is the years...somewhere out in space
And it's time for deliverance
Tomorrow, I'll see it, another day's rise, right before my eyes
Been sinking in sorrow, but now I'm gonna rise
No more reasons why
I'm a watcher in the dark, I'm so cold inside my heart
I'm a temple in the storm and I'm bound to be reborn
Take me down to the underground, let me see the gods of fire
'Cause I know where they live and I know where they stand,
Another reason there to leave
Take me down, take me down, take me to the underground
I wanna meet the gods of fire
And all of their intentions is the center of it all
All that I see is the years...somewhere out in space
And it's time for deliverance
Now that I know I've got to get away...somewhere out in space
I wanna know how to get away
Time for deliverance is now
And as the sun appeared up in the sky
I saw another day that's drifting by
I saw my people cry a million tears
Into eternity they disappeared
SOLO: Kai / both / both left & right / Kai / both
Now it's time to say goodbye or we will sink in sorrow
No, we don't know the reason why, another day, tomorrow
Oh, I thank you for giving me hope
Oh, follow me into a new life
All that I see is the years
Now all that I see is the tears
All that I see is the years...somewhere out in space
And it's time for deliverance
Now all that I see is the fear...somewhere out in space
And it's time for deliverance
I wanna know how to get away - time for deliverance
I wanna know how to get away - time for deliverance
Come set me free, just set me free - time for deliverance
Just let me go
I wanna get away, get away
Somewhere out in space
So here we stand again
Like dust on Mother Earth
And we hide our faces in our dreams
Only emptiness where angels flew - high on golden wings
And the voice of God has vanished now - lost inside our dreams
But the only way to go is heaven
All we can do is pray
In the darkness we stand with the world in our hands
And we pray
For a better tomorrow
We wait
Far beyond the horizon
There's a sound in the sky
The voice of glory I hear a silent cry
When the heroes of yesterday are gone
All we can do is pray
In the darkness we hide and we wait for the light
And we pray
Oh we pray
Let us pray
SOLO : Kai
I've seen the darkside of the moon in my dreams
Now I know it ain't a place to live for us all
All our God's creation is dead and gone
Now we stand like children all alone forever
All we can do is pray
Forever and forever and forever more
For a better tomorrow - we wait
Pray
There's a light in the dark
All it's shining so bright on our way
Still there is hope on our way
And we pray
Oh, pray
Music: Schlächter / Lyrics: Hansen
Atomic fallout scans the sky
Another place where people die
And with a massive final punch
We left a world of pain
And now pollutions everywhere
Another death is in the air
A million people left alone
Down in their desperate, blackened homes
Tomorrow there'll be no sun
Hanging high up in the sky
Tomorrow all dead and gone
And I wish that I could fly
We are lost, in the future, we are lost
In a dream we can't control
No way
So tell me now computer god
We plug our lives into machines
And as they're guiding our dreams
We're individually lost
As we are nailed to our cross
Tomorrow there'll be a sun
Hanging high up in the sky
Tomorrow I'm dead and gone
Oh I wish that I could fly
We are lost, in the future, we are lost
It's a nightmare, we are lost
In the future, we are lost
In a dream we'll never see
Solo: Both/Henjo/Kai/Both
Our hearts live forever
In dreams are alive
Forever and ever
We're riding the sky
Solo: Henjo
All hope is lost, but nothing gained
We're crying again
Is this the end?
Lost, in the future, we are lost
It's a nightmare, we are lost
In the future, we are lost
In a dream we can't control
We're lost, so lost
We're lost, so lost
We all are lost!
I have come from so far away
From the sunlight of my home
And I have seen it's the only way
Now my sun is dead and gone
I raise my head in silent anger
Seems there is no place for me
The only way out is to go
Where no one's gone before
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
Another universe is mine
And I can't wait until tomorrow
Ride - There's a call from deep within
I know I won't return again
'Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh , oh ...
Thunder and lightning and fire
Are guiding the trip of my life
Insatiable burning desire
As into the unknown I dive
I raise my head in silent anger
Seems there is no place for me
The only way out is to go
Where no one's gone before
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
Another universe is mine
And I can't wait until tomorrow
Ride - There is a call from deep within
I know I won't return again
'Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh, oh, don't wait
There was a trigger, for my decision
It's right behind my eyes
Into the darkness of my vision
I let my spirit rise
I wanna see the black hole, into the dark
I wanna dive into the black hole, down into the dark
Into the black hole, into the dark
Into the spiral, into the dark, the dark, the dark
SOLO: Kai / Harmony: Henjo / Melo: Kai
If there's a possible chance for something that can be
Called future behind the spiral
The only way to find out is to leave the final frontier
To eternity and fly
Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
I know the universe is mine
'Cause I will dive into the black hole
Ride - There is a call from deep within
I know I won't return again
'Cause I will dive into the black hole
Don't wait for me, 'cause I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh don't wait for me, no I won't come back
Oh, oh, oh, don't wait
Music & lyrics: Hansen
I don't believe in fame, I believe in music.
I don't believe in money, I believe in the power of love.
I know I got a brain and I know how to use it.
I don't want no one to stick his finger in my pie.
Bridge:
You think you put your best foot forward
But it is moved by someone else.
In blind belief you follow every path that says:
I lead you to a universe of fortune, fame and luck.
Chorus:
Do you really wanna be - rich and famous, rich and famous.
Do you really wanna be - rich and famous now.
I don't believe in Rock 'n' Roll illusions.
I don't believe that what they say must always be the truth.
I don't believe in good guys against bad guys.
I just might as well say I believe in Santa Claus.
Bridge - Chorus
Mr. Big shot wat is your game
Mr. Big shot what is your final aim.
Now you wonder who is to blame.
Mr. Big shot what is your final aim in life.
Rich and famous, house with two hours, big jacuzzi, car with TV.
Private airplane, furs and diamonds, seafood cocktails-
CRAP AND BULLSHIT!
Chorus
Music: Hansen, Wessel
Lyrics: Hansen
Do you think there's a chance
For this world to live in unity as one?
I can try to believe
But I feel it's like a view into the sun.
Blinded by the light everything will look so fine
But still I feel the rays are burning my soul.
So you say you believe
We can change the world together if we try.
I know we won't change.
When it comes to the point
Do you think we reach an aim that is too high?
I know we don't arrange.
But I know we're all the same
When the final curtain falls
And the sings on the way
Are leading us home
Chorus:
When I'm one with the world
I am one with my mind
Forget all the fury there's no need to cry
There's a place we all go, salvation to find
There's freedom to come
When I'm one with the world and my mind.
Do you feel, do you know?
There's an answer to the question when you're gone.
You're not alone.
You will see, we will see
Is there nothing or a better place to go?
We can't go wrong.
There are echoes in the wind
And they say don't be afraid
'cos the signs on the way
Are leading us home
Chorus
Music: Schlachter,
Lyrics: Scheepers, Schlachter
Did you ever want to worry
Did you ever wanna have a doubt?
You wanted the best for me,
Somehow things went wrong.
And i tore us apart.
Did you ever think it was easy,
Thought my time was running out
Tried it how I wanted tto
Though you did not agree
But I was calling you - calling (repeat)
Chorus:
Father, you can't hide, it's time to lose the pride - some day.
Take a look and see, I'm blue as I can be.
In former days you made your own way,
You found on easy way of life.
But I'll be never satisfied to work from nine till five.
I'm heading for more-
I remember what you've said
But I know I won't regret
When I try to break the rules
I'm searching for my way, my own way
Chorus:
Father, you can't hide your feelings deep inside - oh no
There's a better way for you and me today.
I can't stand it anymore - it's only you and me,
We have to talk and see.
How things are gonna be, but all I want is peace
Father, Father, Father -
Chorus:
Father, now it's time, we ain't losin' our minds any more
It seems so long ago, fate will bring us hope!
(Music & lyrics: Hansen)
The businessmen got a job to do
The Eastenworld is waiting too.
They're sittin' on a bloodstone calling you a beggar,
Waitin' for another deal in open cars.
The presence of the men gives a bad vibration,
They're countin' dollar bills, and they're workin' on
The final countdown
Countdown
I'm sitting all around and I'm waitin' for the lyrics
they gotta be cool, botta satisfy the critics.
"Sign of warning all across the edges"
maybe too pathetic ... and my pencil scratches,
Meanwhile X is comin' from Miami
Another perfect deal was made in open cars.
I don't care 'cos I'm much too busy,
I have to write my lyrics
And I'm waiting for the final countdown,
Countdown.
Chorus:
It's jut a matter of time
We're only waitin' for the end of the world
And we got nothing to lose
We're only servants of the monsters we curse.
It's just a matter of time
We can be sure we'll be doin' our worst.
And we're waiting for the countdown.
We're sittin' all around and we drink our lage,
Thanks to God we got no embargo.
What is left to do when you're looking for pleasure,
Somehow we gottta lose the pressure.
We're sittin' on a blood stone, worker, boss and beggar.
I don't give a damn
I want my open car.
God has tourned to money, Jesus is a Liqueur
I'd rather get my record done and party for the final,
COUNTDOWN, COUNTDOWN.
Chorus.
Music: Hansen, Scheepers, Schachter, Wessel
Lyrics: Hansen, Wessel
I need a new direction
Another thought to serve me right
My mind has got an infection
Where nothing can disturb me,
Where I am free, where I'm forever set
Maybe it's not important
If we are dead or alive.
I never ever wanna listen to the sirens
I'm alive, still alive.
Who says: we are not guilty
I say: we never know the way it goes
Chorus:
Changes - all around me, all inside my head
Changes - changing face, still remaining mad.
Changes -in all day routine.
Hard to enjoy the good times,
Decay is what I feel
God, it's makin' me porous, vanish in haze,
I wonder, wonder if I'm real.
Newflash - under the new regulations
Non-conformity will be punished by law.
Relax - and don't forget to unplug your TV set!
Sigh no more!
For you, you are not guilty,
No, no, you're not responsible at all.
Chorus:
Changes - all around me, all inside my head
Changes - changing face, still remaining mad.
Changes - changing systems, still insane.
Changes - but the madness will remain.
Who is the man who says I'm never gonna die?
It's a lie, it's a lie!
And who is the man who says, I never have a sigh?
It's a lie, it's a lie!
Oppression, resistance
We will never change our way,
The island in my mind is growin'
More and more, day after day.
Changes - all around me now, all inside me now
Changes - wanna cry no more, sigh no more.
On wings of tomorrow we're coming to fly
Erasing the sorrow and this is the place where you die
We're shaking the chains off the world of today
We're coming to get you no matter what you're gonna say
This is the time of the ending
It's the dawn of a new world order
This is a new beginning
Where a new world shall arise, we scream
On the wings of yesterday you're gonna die
And you know it's gonna be - we're screaming
This is illumination - we are
We are illuminates - beware
This is illumination - we are
We are illuminates
We live inside society, our presence is unknown
We plot and we manipulate you to which way to go
Illumination comes across the world to bring an end
Intimidating silent force that puts us in command
This is the dawn of the ending
It's the time of a new world order
This is a new beginning
Where a new world shall arise, we scream
On the wings of yesterday you're gonna die
And we know it's gonna be - forever
This is illumination - We are
We are illuminates - Beware
This is illumination - We are
We are illuminates
In the darkness, we shall await
Prepare for changes, to seal your fate
This is illumination - We are
We are illuminates - Beware
This is illumination - We are
We are illuminates
On the edge of the rainbow
Where eagles learn to fly
All of our dreams, they seemed so clear
Into the morning
Into the light of dawn
We're flying higher than before
And when I see the light
that's shining from your eyes
Even brighter than before
We're riding the wind
to reach the golden dawn
We have done it all before
Here I stand
Call on you again
But my heart is filled with fear
Like an eternal flame
Our love will remain
As we sail the lake of tears
Sometimes I wonder
You're so close but you're so far
Seems life will never be the same
Sigh for the morning
To find the light of day
Dream of fortune fades away
Here I stand
Call on you again
But my heart is filled with fear
Like an eternal flame
Our love will remain
As we sail the lake of tears
Here I stand
Call on you again
But my heart is filled with fear
Like an eternal flame
Our love will remain
As we sail the lake...
Here I stand
Call on you again
But my heart is filled with fear
All the tears that I've cried
For the love of my life
As I sailed the lake of tears
Like an eternal flame
Our love will remain
As we sail the lake of tears
Where will I go now it's all over
Where will I be now all is said and done
Here comes the time, prepare for justice
Seems like my final journey has begun
Riding on the wind, there's only one place left to go
Take me to my afterlife, high up or down below
Heaven or Hell - where do we go when we are leaving
Heaven or Hell - whatever comes to set us free
Heaven or Hell - I've gone a long way and I see there's no wishing well
The choice is made, it's heaven or hell
I'm not the one who was expected
So I'll return and be from heaven sent
I'm gonna get myself elected
And now I wanna be the president - Viva el Presidente
Master of the damned I'll be the savior of you all
Take me as a holy god to save you from the fall
Heaven or Hell - where is my final destination
Heaven or Hell - whatever comes to set us free
Heaven or Hell - we've gone a long way and we'll see there is no wishing well
The choice is made, it's heaven or hell
Master of the damned, I'll be the savior of you all
I'm your revelation I'm a walking miracle
Heaven or Hell - what is our final destination
Heaven or Hell - where do we go from here
Heaven or Hell - we've gone a long way and we see there is no wishing well
The choice is made, it's heaven or hell
Heaven or hell
It's heaven or hell
There's no wishing well
It's heaven or hell
Will you follow me into the light
The fortress of wisdom, a star shining bright
The garden of heavenly sin
A kingdom of beauty to please you within
Where do we go from here
Leaving our memories behind
It's time to free your mind
Hey you!
I'll make your dreams come true
I can take you anywhere
Just call on me and I'll be there
Follow me
And I will guarantee
Your life will never be the same
Hear me callin', won't you follow me
Will you follow me into the fight
You smile as you die when you're close to the light
Your dreams will be lost in the haze
Your innocence dying in so many ways
Where do we go from here
Leaving our dreams far behind
To fight the final fight
Hey you!
I'll make your dreams come true
I can take you anywhere
Just call on me and I'll be there
Follow me
Satisfaction guaranteed
We'll be in perfect harmony
So follow me, follow me
Where do we go from here
Reaching our destiny's end
And nothing will remain
Follow me
To the land of make believe
Close your eyes I will be there
And I can take you anywhere
Sacrifice
At the gates of paradise
It's a world full of illusions
By the masters of confusion, follow me...
Will you still follow me...
I was lost, had no reason
I was blind, saw no treason
I was devastated, couldn't take no more
Man infuriated, raging thunderstorm
Where's it gone, the golden future
Where's it now, the dream come true
All we are, eternal sinners
Hiding in their darkened room
And I hear the cry of an eagle
Out in the heavens he will not obey
I hear the cry of an eagle
Riding on wings of tomorrow
that take me away
I was scared, for a lifetime
I've been had, nuclear crime
Is this never ending, grand catastrophy
Here I am ascending, from this misery
Where's it now, your golden future
Where's it gone, your dream come true
All I see, immortal sinners
Rising fear, I'm leaving you
And I hear the cry of an eagle
Out in the heavens he will not obey
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Follow the sunrise on wings that will take me away
Faster, faster to the light, in this world too many fights
Devastation, termination, leave the world for recreation
Out in my dreamworld there's a better place to be
Cause all this world is full of lies
Breaking chains that hold me down I fly up to the sun
Another place, another life
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Out in the heavens I will not obey
I'm riding the sky like an eagle
Follow the sunrise on wings that will take me away
Away...
Music / Lyrics: Hansen
Where will you be tomorrow?
Really I don't care
I have seen the future, rising everywhere
Look into the mirror, tell me what you see
Piece by piece you'll vanish
Until you disappear!
Now I'm doing what I say
No more fooling anyway
Beyond this hell, there is a better life to lead
You're all undone, emotionless
It's not the way for me
Now I know there's a better way
Let my heart ride out for a brighter day
Now it's time to breathe in the open air
With a mind so free, anyway
It's time for a change...
It's time to break free!
Had enough of fooling, had enough of lies
Hypocrisy, inriguing, right before my eyes
Had enough of hound dogs, barking all the time
I agree with Elvis, you ain't no friend of mine
Apart from this there is a better life I know
You're all undone, emotionless
It's time for me to go
Chorus / Solo: Kai / Both / Kai
Now I know there's a better way
Let my heart fly free towards a better day
Now it's time to breathe, it's the only way,
let my mind ride out, anyway...
Now I know, there's a better way
Let my heart ride out for a better day
Now it's time to breathe in the open air
With a mind so free, anyway
It's time to break free!
It's time to be me, FREE.
Music / Lyrics: Rubach
Hello my name is Mr. Know-It-All
My sweet home is deep down in your soul
Let me introduce you to the final call
Salvation is calling for you
Life is just a fairytale
Narrated by a lunatic for man
The hope is clouded by eternal haze
Tell me what you mean?
Do you think about ambition?
Why don't you scream? - oh yeah
Don't you realize - what you criticize
Now remove yourself - away from here
Salvation's calling - salvation's calling
The walls are falling - salvation's calling now!
Hey, you think that you blown it all
Your life, you can't enjoy it to the full
Whhen all your dreams are fading
To eternal black
You're lost in the twilight
Now, what d'you mean
What do you think about ambition?
Go out and scream, oh yueah
Realize not criticize
Remove yourself away from here
Remove yourself away from here
Chorus
Follow you instinct
Never follow your illusions
Just remember from all your troubles
There is a way out
Turn around and see yourself
Beyond your horizons
There's an outcry in the void
There is a way out from here
Solo: Both / Kai / Dirk
Goodbye my friend
It's time to leave you on your own
Get going to find out your own way
Believe in what you're doing
Cos I'm in your head
You can't hesitate anymore
Don't think about existance
Just move your ass - be yourself
Now realize - not criticize
Now move yourself - take your chance
Chorus
Music / Lyrics: Hansen
I'm a man on a mission
And my deligence won't wait
There are supersonic killers in the sky
Everything you do will be analyzed,
They control every step of your life
Well, mankind has gone to a high extreme
To the dark side on the way
All I see is a masquerade
And the termination waits
Oh, I've seen the faces of a million leaving here
Abandoned times and places of a world
Built out of fear
The quest is drawing near
The mystery of fear is just about to clear
What we need right now, is a miracle on earth
Let out hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together
>From the neverending rain,
'Til the sun will shine for all of us again
So we travel on at the speed of light
And the gods will light our way
Gotta change our part in the masterplan
For another break in the race
And the trumpet sound will soon be heard
As the dead in mind awake
And the joyful saints will guide us
On the onward fight that we take
Oh, I've seen a million
Leaving right away from here
Abondoned times and places of a world
Built out of fear
The quest is drawing neart
The mystery of hear is just about to clear
Chorus
Take my hand and you will see
The mirror of your destiny
So many came to read the signs,
To understand their meaning
Now I see it's you and me,
So try to understand
And wee will walk the road of life
Together hand in hand
I do not dare, I do not dare
But something's calling me
For those who dared could not break free
The one who will succeed,
I wonder, is it me?
Solo: Kai
Give us a chance to live
Give us a chance to die
Give us a chance to be free
Without fire from the sky
Give us a chance to love
Give us a chance to hate
Give us a chance, before you kill us all
Before you kill us, kill us all
Before you kill us, before you kill us all
Before you kill us
Music / Lyics: Hansen
Somewhere in the desert of the void
Beyond the wall
We're the last survivors
We're the ones who'll never fall
Men inside the circle leave the night!
Darkness al around us
Not a single beam of light
All we have is our faith
Waiting for the fight
The time has come to break the outer wall
Grab your heart I'll show you the way
Hold you head up high
High above at the edge of the world
We're searching for glory and peace
When the time has come, you will see
Our return to the land of the free
Men inside the cirlce
Tell me what you feel and see
Delusions of reality
The mirror of your dreams
Hold you ground
And I'll show you the way
Now hold your head up high
Chorus / Solo: Kai / Dirk / Kai / Dirk
And when the cracks appear upon the wall
We know the moments here to see it fall
and as the sunlight appears again in our sky
no wall, no more, no more will darken our life
Melody: Both / Dirk / Chorus
Music: Rubach / Lyrics: Hansen
The sun goes down in the western sky
The shadows are gonna return
I wander alone through the back of my mind
The twilight of moon starts to run
How can I see beyond existance?
I'm leaving in to the unknown
I wander around as I hear someone scream
A voice that is never my own
Oh, how can you dare to dwell
All alone in the back of your head
As we struggle for life in this emotional hell
We wait for for the gods to be there
Gods of deliverance, how can I set free...
Souls in the underworld
Calling out for me... They're in my head!
Wherever you'll roam in your dreams
You'll have to remember your name
So many are trapped - down in the abyss
They're waiting for you and they say:
How can you dare to stand alone
On this side of the wall
As we struggle for life in this emotional hell
We wait for salvation to call
Chorus / Solo: Dirk / Both / Dirk
Morning comes around again
Shoadows are leaving the night
Now there's a sense for existance
I've seen it with my own two eyes
The vision is getting clearer
Now that I've seen the unknown
The voices are yearning to live again
The gods will guiding us home
And you still dare to dwell all alone
In the back of you head
Still we struggle for life
In this emotional hell
Salvation will one day be there
Don't you be misled
By the illusions in your head
Then the gods of deliverance will say:
'No more illusions, we're leaving today...'
Don't you be misled
By the illusions in your head
Then the gods of deliverance will say:
'No more illusions, we're leaving today...
We're in your head' - They're in my head
'We're in your head' - In my head...
Music / Lyrics: Hansen
One time in life is all I need, to satisfy my senses
Delusions of reality are tearing your defenses
I never tried to catch the rainbow,
But in the end I have a dream...
All of the damned will be wearing the corwn
It's hard to believe as your world's going down
You won't understand why
They served you so well
You won't understand
Why the hopeless are marching through hell
So all you see around you now
Is falling down defenseless
A free life is our only need, for life is only rented
I see a face on my mirror on the wall,
And I don't know what it can be
I see a face inside the rainbow
At the end of the dream,
The face in the rainbow is me
All of the damned will be wearing the crown
It's hard to believe as your world turns around
No, you won't understand why
They served you so well
It's hard to believe
While the hopeless are marching through hell
Solo: Kai/ Both/ Kai
I never thought I catch the rainbow
But in the end it's all a dream
I see a face in my mirror
At the end of the dream
The face in the mirror is me
'Cause all of the damned
Will be wearing the crown
It's hard to forsee
As the world turns around
No, you won't understand why
They served you so well
It's hard to believe
While the hopeless are marching through hell
Music: Rubach / Lyrics: Hansen
Do you believe in the afterworld
Or the afterlife?
Do you agree there's a place for us
Beyond our life
Where the timless call for life
Is lost and you will see
The forgotten dreams
That you once had become reality
They will be set free - another day
You cannot leave if you do not want to stay
In the afterlife - in the afterlife
Life's a dream that you will forget
In the endless space
And the scars you got on planet Earth
Will be erased
You were blind until your eyes
Have stopped to see
And your powers unfold by the moment
You hit eternity
You will be set free
But you'll never return
That's the price you have to pay
In the afterlife - in the afterlife
Solo: Kai
Now you're gone without a word
You didn't say goodbye
I miss you here where are you now
An angel in the sky?
Your visit here has been so short
You left to be set free
But I believe we'll meet again
And together we will stay
In the afterlife - in the afterlife
In the afterlife - in the afterlife
(Dedicated to Ingo Schwichtenberg)

Come to plague me, rape and take me
Freeze me up, freeze me up.
Politician, inquisition freeze 'em up.
Freeze 'em up, freeze 'em up.
They're closing in, the iron round.
They hold the share in hand.
To strangulate your way to live,
The norm always wins in the end.
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken,
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken.
Tomorrow it will be taken.
Law and order, wall and border,
Freeze me up, freeze me up.
Automatic, democratics, freeze 'em up.
Freeze 'em up, freeze 'em up.
No parole on your housewall,
So nice and clean - our land.
And though they crash the hammer down
Resistance lives on in the end.
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken,
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken.
Tomorrow it will be taken.
They sneak around, they spy your mind
Your unborn child's a number on their way into the grey.
Insanity, they steal your dreams.
They promise everything but they betray
Day after day.
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken,
Hold your ground, or tomorrow it will be taken.
Tomorrow it will be taken.
Music & lyrics: Hansen, Sielck
Do you believe in justice
Or so-called co-existence?
What's wrong with politicians?
They give their best for you
The economic's growin'
Some tiny holes above
A little radiation
Wake up this planet fades
Bridge:
You are not watching, you're part of the show
You lost the first prize a long time ago.
Prechours:
WAR - somebody's always starts again
HATE - we're getting closer to the end
Chorus:
As time goes by
(We never seem to beat the ones
Who say we can't be free)
As time goes by.
Do you believe in money?
Do you believe in guns?
Do you trust the press, babe?
You'd better judge yourself.

The missiles are launching, the tanks are rollin'
The guns are blazing, the sky turns black!
Prechorus
Chorus:
As time goes by
We never seem to beat the ones
Who say we can't be free
As time goes by
We're getting closer to the end of our ability
As time goes by
Is there a place to run for shelter in a high tech war
As time goes by
Can you believe and trust in God
To help you from above.
Now the time is here again
I'm calling you my friends
from the ashes we must rise
and it's been for much too long
now that everything went wrong
like the eagle we must fly
ooh the seal is torn
the seed is sown
ooh, we are coming
And we rise like phoenix from the ashes
let us go where no man's gone before
and we don't need your tomorrow
we're the kids of yesterday
and our spirit will remain forevermore
We're rising again
What's the use of living in a world that changes fast
I cannot see the good side of the progress
beyond the icy glitter world
our hearts are beating fast
a storm released to hammer on the fortress
your time has come
ooh, your world is done
it's time to meet the maker
ooh, we are coming
And we rise like phoenix from the ashes
let us go where no man's gone before
and we don't need your tomorrow
we're the kids of yesterday
and our brotherhood is here forevermore
We're rising again
....uuh, like phoenix from the ashes
we will go where no man's gone before
Rise like phoenix from the ashes
let us boldly go where no man's gone before
we don't need your tomorrow
we will do it our own way
and the world belongs to us forevermore
We'll rise,
we will go where no man's gone before
to hell with your tomorrow
we'll do it our own way
and our spirit will remain forevermore
so keep your dreams of progress
you cannot win at all
the spirit will remain forevermore
The sun is going down, the curtain's falling
The heat is rising now, the master's calling
Into the night I thunder, into the dead of night
and I will head the calling and leave it all behind
The holy man has lost the grail, signs of love from yesterday
the eyes of god of have turned away, the dream became alive
all my life I've waited for the yearning in my heart
right out there I see a star, the sun is going down
Kiss the princess, Empress of the dark
drink the poison , listen to your heart
Feed the Princess, Empress of the dark
All shall feel the fire
My heart is crying out, the fever rising
no one can stop me now, it's meserizing
I break the chains that bind me, the chaos in my life
I leave the world behind me and live in my own mind
A holy land, another shore, no more pain and no more war
she's calling me from far away, makes me feel alive
here I stand in front of her, losing my disguise
no regrets, I'm standing there, waiting for the bite
Kiss the princess, Empress of the dark
drink the poison , listen to your heart
Feed the Princess, Empress of the dark
All shall feel the fire
Kiss the princess, Empress of the dark
feel the poison , flowing through your heart
Kiss the Princess, Empress of the dark
All shall feel her fiery Love
Another life,a different way, signs of life from yesterday
the memory will fade away, the dream became alive
here I stand in front of you, tearing off the lies
no regrets, I'm standing tall, I now am free to bite
Kiss the princess, Empress of the dark
drink the poison , listen to your heart
Feed the Princess, Empress of the dark
All shall feel the fire
Kiss the princess, Empress of the dark
drink the poison ,listen to your heart
Kiss the Princess, Empress of the dark
As the days grow colder now
And everything is lost
A vision forms of better men
Rising from the cross
Never held the key to life
Finally their loss
Rising from the emptiness
And all that ever was
The battle rages on 'til now
Many men were lost
Dried into an empty shell
Nailed onto the cross
As I lie awake by now
Having never loved
Heaven sent for all of us
So painful our loss
In the eyes of the world a believer
But I'm sure they'll be turning away
Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling
Pain has come
And the world will surely hide
In empathy
And then the world's religious fools
Come knocking at your door
Mankind is not wiser now
I've heard it all before
Still the mindless will hail the deceivers
And I'm sure they'll be turning away
Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling
Pain has come
And the world will surely hide
In empathy
Empathy
In empathy
And the world will hide
In empathy
In empathy
Yes the world will hide
In empathy
The world will hide
Empathy
Bodies lie around me, only shells left from the fight
victims of the ones that turn the day into the night
survivors stumble through the field,they're calling for the priest
branded with a sign, the number of the beast
it's Hell!
I can't escape the nightmare that's here before my eyes
a prisoner of destiny, a victim of the night
my thoughts, they move in circles, I'm heading for the fall
they tell me hope dies last, but I got no hope at all
So talk to me, the world I see
has reached the point of no return
the tons of grief killed my belief
my heaven's on fire and it burns
When the world's on my shoulders
and the pain comes again
then I wish I could be there
in my dreamland again
There I'm free from the madness
without chains and no wall
When the world's on my shoulders
I will pray for you all
Is someone there to save us from the voices in the dark
the words fly out like bullets, they leave a deadly mark
the mindless kill their agony with prices from the show
they're heading for tomorrow, but they don't know where to go
So talk to me, the world I see
has reached the point of no return
the tons of grief killed my belief
my heaven's on fire and it burns
When the world's on my shoulders
and the pain comes again
then I wish I could be there
in my dreamland again
There I'm free from the dark
and I'm safe from the wall
When the world's on my shoulders
I will pray for you all
So if you talk to me now about our belief
and all the meaning somehow
is to make people free
All our lives we fear, to be what we hate
breaking this curse with a fire
that burns all the darkness away
Save me, Hold me, Help me
Free me, Love me, Heal me
When the world's on my shoulders
and the pain comes again
then I wish I could be there
in my dreamland again
There I'm free from the dark
and I'm safe from the wall
When the world's on my shoulders
Hey, this world's a dying planet
nothing matters, nothing's won
I have come to seek revenge
for all that you have done
Hate and fear, eternal sadness
nothing matters, no one cares
I am here to stop the madness
free you from despair
Once I heard the white dove sing
it was the sound of peace
beauty dies in agony
crushed under debris
She was so beautiful
she was a dream
and when I cry for her
I hear them scream..
No respect, no heart for nature
led by greed they tear our soil
ripped, the sky, the damage major
the air is at the boil
Here create another wasteland
on and on 'til nothing's there
here it comes, the devastation
poisoning the air
Once I saw the eagle fly
it was the sound of peace
beauty dies in agony
crushed under debris
She was so beautiful
she was a dream
and when I cry for her
I hear them scream..
You were so beautiful
you were a dream
all we shall heed the call
shall be redeemed
She was so beautiful
she was a dream
and when I cry for her
I hear them scream..
Oh Mother Earth
You were so beautiful
just like a dream
all we shall heed the call
shall be redeemed
Give me peace and absolution
take me up into the light
sacrifice and self-destruction
bodies burning bright
to die for revelation
decimate the enemy
holy war into damnation
blood is on the streets
But when the knife is cutting deep
and you're crying in your sleep
then it's time to come alive
And rise up, shine forever
you will see the light again on your road
Watch your step they're right behind you
better move without a sound
damn the day they're gonna find you
grind you into the ground
And the knife is cutting deep
and in agony you creep
and it's time to come alive
And rise up, shine forever
you will see the light on your road
rise up it's now or never
you will see the light again on your road
Standing and watching the fire
don't wanna stand in the row
watching the flames get higher
look at yourself, regain your self-control
Take a look around you, you're not alone
so stand up and rise
Rise up, shine forever
you will see the light on your road
Rise up, shine forever
and your star will rise again
My mind is darkened by a demon in my soul
My life is empty and my heart is getting cold
My hope is dying by things I used to see
So much confusion - I'm down on my knees
To find a solution - I want to break free
Look through the eyes of time and finally you will see
The broken dreams and all the pain and tragedy
My mind is asking, will I ever find the key?
So much confusion - I'm down on my knees
To find a solution - I want to break free
Here comes the rain again, falling on my head
My mind is dark again, it's gonna make me mad
Here comes the rain again, crawling like a snake
It's like a thunderstorm, I can not escape
Possession, possessed
And when the curtain falls they still don't realize
Who cries for children, when there's no one left to cry?
Who's proud of victories, when all the love has died?
So much confusion - I'm down on my knees
To find a solution - I want to break free
Here comes the rain again, falling on my head
It's like a thunderstorm, it's gonna make me mad
Here comes the rain again, crawling like a snake
Here comes the rain again, I can not, I can not escape
I try, but it's so hard to find
Wiping the tears of my mind
I cried for the pain deep inside
Where is my blue sunny sky?
... and where the fuck is my Superman outfit???
So much confusion - I'm down on my knees
To find a solution - I want to break free
Here comes the rain again, falling on my head
My mind is dark again, it's gonna make me mad
Here comes the rain again, no more, no more
It will not bring me down, no more, no more
So let me dry the tears and then I will arise
Out in the sunlight see me fly
Opportunity came to my door
when I thought I might need a ride
but I said I'm doing alright
turn around and start to see
Yeah, life is boring- Monday,Tuesday
The machines are roaring-Wednesday,Thursday
Friday, and the rain keeps falling
just like everyday
Time is running-Saturday, Sunday
when there's gonna be some holiday for you?
and time flies, time flies, time flies, time flies
I could be a rich man and I could be a superstar
yeah, what's the aim and what's the plan
please just leave again
Set me free, yeah I wanna live it up
and let me be all that I wanna be
cause the whole world in my hands is down
and nothing will last
oh bring back the harmony
Sweating, nightmares - no way to escape
no, I can't sleep
I'm going down in a sea of madness
Raging anger- Hell or paradise
deep in my dreams
no escape for you, no escape for me
Time flies-gotta think it over
Time flies-better think again
Time flies-living in the real world
Time flies-or living on the edge
I should be a wise man, don't need to be a superstar
Set me free, yeah I wanna live it up
and let me be all that I wanna be
cause the whole world is in my hands now
but nothing will last
oh bring back the harmony
What will you do in the dark
the hand of your fate left it's mark
so don't try to argue with me now
Your Hell ain't a bad place to be
take a look at your life now and see
'cause maybe I will not come back
You stand on the edge of the world
your life will be torn into pieces
The hammer is falling
the world is not waiting for you
hey you think that you know what is real
travelling around for no reason
you better watch out and jump off of my cloud
for your own sake
Set me free, yeah I wanna live it up
and let me be what I wanna be
Set me free, mmh I wanna live it up
and let me be all I wanna be
cause the whole world is in my hands now
and I want it to last
Set me free, yeah
and let me be what I wanna be
the whole world is in my hands now
and I want it to last
You try to force me on my knees
Until you reach the point of no return
You can't change me, 'cause I am free
Let me out now, I've got some fuel here to burn
In the land of the free, they're calling out for me
I'm riding on the wind, I'm on my way
Into the storm, Into the storm
Now I am riding on forever
and I don't know where I will go
And every storm I'm running after
will take me further on I know
A land of the free is calling out for me
I'm riding on the wind, I'm on my way
Into the storm, Into the storm
Get out of my way!
A land of the free, made for you and me
We're riding on together on our way
Into the storm, into the storm
We can win, we can lose
We can swallow the bad news
In the end we all know our life is just a show
Everybody plays a game and in our hearts
There's hidden our real face
Who is the man who says I'm never gonna cry
It's a lie, it's a lie
And who is the girl who says I'm never gonna sigh
It's a lie, it's a lie
On the road to nowhere in the falling rain
I've come to makin' my mind up to get to the point
And here I go again
Who is the man who says I'm never gonna cry
It's a lie, it's a lie
No, I'm not the man who says I'm never gonna die
But I'm alive, still alive, alive
We are not guilty, we never know the way it goes
Just like heroes, heroes, heroes
An all day routine
We can be deadly wounded but we can stand the pain
We might lose the battle but for our ideals
We stand right up and start to fight again
We all know our enemies but only God knows
Who will fall lean back and lick your wounds
Fight them all for you
You are not guilty you never know the way it goes
Just like heroes, heroes
Who is the man who says I'm never gonna cry
It's a lie, it's a lie
No, I'm not the man who says I'm never gonna die
But I'm alive, still alive
Heroes, heroes, heroes
The World Is Pervated With
Ironie, Hunger And Corruption
The Eastern World And The Africans Too
Are Going To Repeat The History Of Our Wars
And Our Industry Supplies Them With Arms
Everybody Knows, But Apparently
Nobody Can Do Anything Against It
For Our Society Is On The Make
Well, Sometimes, Sometimes,
I Tried To Draw Up A List
I Tried To Find Out What Death Had Done
I Thought Of Honourable Murderers You Know
Like Jobbers And Mad Rabble-Rousers
At Anytime, Everywhere In The Whole World
If I Were A Gamma Ray, A Gamma Gamma
Gamma Ray Made Of Pure Existence
If I Were A Gamma Ray, A Gamma Gamma
Gamma Ray Mighty And Unfailing
I’d Radiate Love, To Fight Misery
Without A Body I Could Fly Round
The World Destroying Arms, Destroying Rockets
Mix-Up Complexions Of The Whole Human Race
We All Would Turn Into Chocolate People
Everybody, Everywhere In The Whole World
If I Were A Gamma Ray, A Gamma Gamma
Gamma Ray Made Of Pure Existence
If I Were A Gamma Ray, A Gamma Gamma
Gamma Ray Mighty And Unfailing
It's nine o'clock in the Chinese Take-Away
And I blame the effects on the Gamma Ray, the Gamma Ray
Well, losing out on Mah Jong
I set my watch to Hong Kong
I blame it all on the Gamma Ray
I hear the Triad has crossed the Tong
In Indianapolis, home of the Gamma Ray
The deadly Gamma Ray, the deadly Gamma Ray
And there ain't no guest list tonight at the Memorial Hall
Cher got in 'cos she's so thin
And even Evil Knievel tried to wheedle
No, the deadly Gamma Ray, the Gamma Ray
I blame it all on the Gamma Ray
Know why, you know why? The Gamma Ray
I hear there's entry only to those with green hair
In the next World's Fair because of the Gamma Ray
Yeah, I hear there's panic buying of shampoo
And those little pots of goo
You know why, you know why
All because of the Gamma Ray
When Alan McGhee went to Dundee
He caused all the rock groups to flee
Yeah, I read it in the N.M.E.
It was the Gamma Ray
The Chief Brigadier's head began to swell
Firing off depleted uranium shells
He bombarded everything pretty well
Except for the Gamma Ray
Blow it all away
And then the Gamma Ray seemed to say
If you carry twelve margaritas on a tray
You cannot be touched in anyway
By the benign, yet malevolent
Mark two chrome, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma
Gamma, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma Ray
Gamma, Gamma, Gamma, Gamma
Mama, mama, mama, mama, mama ray
So, let's go back to Indianapolis, oh, Indianapolis
Yeah, Indianapolis, Indianapolis
Let's go back to Indianapolis
Because it's the home of the Gamma Ray
Sure, I'm gettin' on a train right now
Global chaos now unveiling
Nearly all the world has found itself undone
Human blood flows throughout our streets
Impetuous rain colors the rives red
Destruction is imminent
An end to this war must be found
United in turmoil people of this world rise as one
To create a device of irrefutable power and devastation
Constructing a machine of the gods
With the force to collapse the heavens
Fear the great furnace of the sun
Earth radiates within it's divine light
Trembling of this earth
People take shelter underground
Abandoning of their cities
The feeble shall be left behind to perish
Constructing a machine of the gods
With the force to collapse the heavens
Fear the great furnace of the sun
Earth radiates within it's divine light
Blood of innocents will shed profusely
Bodies Withering languished on the ground
Harnessing the suns rays to release among them all
Global chaos now unveiling
Nearly all the world has found itself undone
Human blood flows throughout our streets
Impetuous rain colors the rivers red
Annihilating our adversaries
Charred corpses extend across this scorched world
