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 Live-Life-Easy 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 Loud and proud, we're gonna say it now, Live-Life-Easy Live-Life-Easy Live-Life-Easy 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. Loud and proud, we're gonna say it now, Live-Life-Easy Live-Life-Easy Live-Life-Easy |

GARDENS OF THE SINNER
Music: Zimmermann and Hansen/Lyrics: Zimmermann and Hansen 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 |

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 crown 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 Hansen / Schlachter & Hansen / Hansen) 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 foresee 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 |

ONE WITH THE WORLD
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 Sighs on the way Are leading us home 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 Sighs on the way Are leading us home 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. One with the world One with the world One with the world I am one! One with the world One with my mind One with my heart |

RAZORBLADE SIGH
Music: Hansen/Lyrics: Hansen 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 |

LAST BEFORE THE STORM
Music: Hansen/Lyrics: Hansen 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 |

[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! |

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 rassing by then the world will sink in silence 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 end. 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 all uh, yeah see and hear what we have done to us all, we wanna be free more than antthing, 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. |

[THE GUARDIANS OF MANKIND]
Music: Richter/Lyrics: Richter 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 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 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 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 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 |

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 |
