Gamma Ray

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

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 better dreams in me
Just 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
On our own dream world there's a fortress
It's only waiting to be found
I gaze around and think: This must be magic
Cause there's no limits all around

I don't mind to stay a while in dreamland
So come on now and take me of with you
If together we would fly, for all eternity
I would not refuse
If I had it all I wouldn't mind, my friend
To say goodbye, to feeling free
To stay or leave is just an easy case
Your wings will always come for me

I don't mind to stay a while in dreamland
A place to leave my soul far behind
Together we will fly, thru heaven and thru hell
To no mans land to no mans world

Together we will fly thru all eternity
Only you and me, only you and me
On our way to the land of the free

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

Solo Dirk / Kai
Bridge / Chorus

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)

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 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

[Hansen]

I came from the sky on the coldest day
They tough me to speak and to walk and obey
Injected their will into my simple kind
Forever to be in control of my mind

Let me out, let me out and walk away
Let me live on the run
Let me out, let me out and make me stay
For my kingdom to come

[Chorus:]
I'm the one with no name
And I won't play your game
I'm no light in the dark and no savior
Let my powers unfold
And before I get cold
Let me die as a rebel
Or live as a free man at last

I seek no forgiveness for taking my turn
I don't beg your pardon
It's time that you learn
That I'm non-conform
And I hate the norm
And I wish your world away
I'm falling to pieces sometime

[Chorus x2]

Free at last

Now all you sinners, this is the prophecy
The 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 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 judgement will come

Won't you help me now

All gods creation is finally dead and gone
Our revelation, the day of 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 surrnder 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 temptation
Save us from the revelations

I stand alone, I stand alone,
I stand alone, Inside my head
Noone can hear, noone can hear,
noone can hear, My little word

Holy father, take me on your wings of love
I wish that I could be forever free, oh yeah

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 judgement has ...

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 judgement has come
Won't you help me now

Epilogue:
Now all you 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 the window in the darkness
(parted in our hearts)
Glowing turning circles where we go
(no, they won't let go, let go)
Blind our souls with raging burning madness

Out in the heavens we're ready to fight
Too late to cry
The final conclusion is roaring inside
Too proud to die

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
Is shining 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 survival

Up to the stars, we have come from the night
Too late to cry
The final conclusion is roaring inside
Too proud to die

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
Is shining for us , anywhere in the galaxy
Time is right for us to see,
the world will long for liberty
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

And now the story finally ends,
with no disgrace for our survival
Outrageous fury in my hands,
and turning circles turn no more

Too late to cry
Out in the heavens we're ready to fight
Too proud to die
the final conclusion is roaring inside

Gaze at the stars, the glowing god of mars
Is shining for us , anywhere in the galaxy
Time is right for us to see,
the world wil long for liberty
Fallen heroes calling me,
anywhere in the galaxy
Anywhere in the galaxy
Anywhere in the galaxy

As time goes by
Can you believe and trust in God
To help you from above.

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
No 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

I will fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
I leave the universe behind
And I can't wait until tomorrow

Fly - Beyond the gates of space and time
I know the universe is mine
`Cause I will dive into the black hole
Ride - And 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, don't wait

Clock strikes midnight in the palest moonlight
As the man walks into my bedroom
Heart in hand I hear him speak:
" My friend,
The time has come to rise, my name is Doom.
Ask no questions
There will be an answer soon. "

And we fall through the dark of the underworld
And we're leaving the light of the day
And I know we will go to the other side
And it seems like I'm going to stay

Hell is home to the gods of the underworld
To the one who will never betray
Now my soul will be here for eternity
And the night will be leading my way

Yeah, bite me!

There was a time when hell was divine
The holy man was nailed to the cross
A fire on ice, burning inside
All my hope and loving was lost

Now hell is my home, the sadness is gone
But don't you think my soul it is lost
If you really care just hold out your hand
And I will free you all from the cross

The priest is raising hands to do the final execution
Shouting out in agony: " Fear the cross "
I'm digging my claws into his neck and raise him to the ceiling
Gritting my teeth I smell the blood
You are lost!

[Chorus]
Blood red vengeance
I want blood red vengeance
Screaming for blood

I was walking through the darkness
Searching for a white neck to bite
I was restless and the hunger
Carried me on through the night

Yearning vampire: " Fear the cross "
Feel the undead's... rage and lust

[Chorus]
Blood red vengeance
I want blood red vengeance
Screaming for blood

Into the dark
Blood religion
[Repeat 4 times]

[Chorus 2]
Screaming for blood - blood red vengeance
Screaming for blood - blood red vengeance
Give me your heart - blood red vengeance
I want it all - blood red vengeance
Vengeance... yeah

Give me your love... oh yeah
Oh, love me!

Clock strikes midnight in the palest moonlight

Heart in hand I hear him speak:

My life, not yours
Is that alright no fight
I don't 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 a matter of fact. Now step aside
Chorus:
We are brothers in rock we won't let go
We got our music and we got our soul
And with the sisters of rock we can change the world
If we try
Cool down, now 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 no step aside.
Chorus (x2)
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 no step aside.
Chorus (x2)

I need a new direction
Another thought to serve me right
My mind has got an infection
And there's nothing that seems to help
I need to grow an island somewhere inside my head
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 -an 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 to 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.

[Richter]
Catch the wind
I'm gonna fly away
No turning back
Forever starts today
I am searching for something
Something I've never found
I am bleeding
Still proceeding
Want you to be around
[Chorus:]
Queen of the light
Star shining bright
Blessed by the light of the moon
A chase with the wind to the gardens of sin
Take me away, I am coming
Chasing shadows
Turn the page
Don't waste your life away
The choice is yours
Don't waste another day
Are you looking for someone
Someone deep in your mind
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me?
Is it you I will find
Queen of the light
Star shining bright
Blessed by the light of the moon
A chase with the wind to the gardens of sin
Take me away, I am coming
Chasing shadows
Give me your light
To bring sun to the night
Make me whole again
Back in the sun
I am chasing the shadows away
Save me from the tears and rain
A taste of freedom from the pain
The choice to be the man I was before
And when the end of day is near
I'll never know if she apperas
Will you open the door
Queen of the light
Star shining bright
Blessed by the light of the moon
A chase with the wind to the gardens of sin
Take me away, I am coming
Chasing shadows
Give me your light
To bring sun to the night
Make me whole again
Back in the sun
I am chasing the shadows away
Chasing shadows

Come get some!

Oppression - Deadly reign
Madmen gone insane
They hate and bring us pain

Bloodlust in their eyes
Getting high on torture cries
They hate and terrorize, they sacrifice

They try to break my will
They claim the right to kill
My world is standing still
I'm lost in hell

They try to make me right
A prisoner no reason why
All I try is to survive
The world's demise

Chained to darkness - Screaming for the light
Killing pain to save my life

Condemned to Hell - I'm facing the end of my days
Condemned to Hell - Their torches are burning
Condemned to Hell - My Freedom will burn at the stake
Condemned to Hell - The dark age's returning

They don't care, they close their eyes
Kick away our human rights
A world dehumanized

Now tell me, how many gave their lives?
How many have to die?
Killed by official lies, with stars and stripes

Pain and anger - Killing all the light
Darkness comes - Eternal night

Condemned to Hell - I'm facing the end of my days
Condemned to Hell - Their torches are burning
Condemned to Hell - My Freedom will burn at the stake
Condemned to Hell - The dark age's returning

Chained to darkness - screaming for the light
Killing pain to save my life

Condemned to Hell - I'm facing the end of my days
Condemned to Hell - Their torches are burning
Condemned to Hell - My Freedom will burn at the stake
Condemned to Hell - The dark age's returning

Condemned to Hell - Condemned!
Condemned to Hell - Condemned!
Condemned to Hell - Condemned!

Hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell
Condemned to Hell
Hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell
Condemned to Hell
Hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell, hell
Condemned to Hell

(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.

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?foretold 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's 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

Damn the Machine
Damn....

Coming from the dark side
When the moon enlights the still
They're chasing you around
And they aim in for the kill
Seven deadly snipers, seven lives to live
Seven million pairs of eyes
Are watching for the thrill

The eyes of the hangmen
Will dance in your head
The silence is broken
The beast going mad

[Chorus:]
Now you run from the deadlands
The eyes of a stranger will follow
Run like a madman
The eyes of the stranger will follow
Now run!

I will not die in vain
I will not live in pain
And seven deadly bullets
Have not found me
I won't bow to you all
You'll never see me crawl
And seven deadly snipers won't
Surround me nevermore

The eyes of the hangmen
To pieces are torn
The dawn of a new world
A king to be born

Now you run from the deadlands
The eyes of a stranger will follow
Run like a madman
The eyes of the stranger will follow
Now run!

I'm on the run
From the shadows
From the deadlands
Oh yea

Dethrone Tyranny (Zimmermann)



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

Lyrics: Hansen, Scheepers.

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.

Chorus:
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.

Chorus

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.

I was lost - had no reason
I was blind - saw no treason
I was devastated, I couldn't take no more
Man infuriated, raging thunderstorm

Where's it now, the golden future?
Where's it gone, 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 catastrophe
Here I am ascending, from this misery

Where's it gone, your golden future?
Where's it now, 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 I 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... away...

Away...

[Hansen]
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
[Chorus:]
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
Empathy!

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 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 mesmerizing
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
All shall feel the fiery Love

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 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 mesmerizing
I break the chains that bind me, the chaos in my life
I leave the world behind me and live in my own mind

All shall feel the fiery Love

Racing' cross the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand

Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask

Everything he touches
Fries into a crisp
Let him get close to you
So you're in his trip
First you'll smoke and moulder
Blister up and singe
When ignition hits you
The very soul of your being will cringe

Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to you knees and repent if you please

Who is this man?
Where is he from?
Exciter comes
For everone
You'll never see him
But you will taste the fire upon your tongue

He's come to make you snap out
Of the state that you are in
Looks around and make you
See the light again
So much self-indulgence
Results in shattered eyes
Predominant complacency
Leads to beguiling lies

Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask

When he leaps amidst us
With combustive dance
All shall bear the branding
Of his thermal lance
Cauterising masses
melting into one
Only when there's order
Will his job be done
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please

Who is this man?
Where is he from?
Exciter comes
For everone
You'll never see him
But you will taste the fire upon your tongue

Racing' cross the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand

Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter

Racing' cross the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet

Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please

Who is this man?
Where is he from?
Exciter comes
For everyone.
You'll never see him
But you will taste the fire upon your tongue

He's come to make you snap out
Of the state that you are in
Looks around and make you
See the light again
So much self-indulgence
Results in shattered eyes

Now my friend it's time for you
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 questionmark from your head...
Let the fairytale be real
Let the fairytale be real

Now my friend it's time for you
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 questionmark from your head...
Let the fairytale be real
Let the fairytale be real

Farewell
by Gamma Ray



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

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!

I see a world that's full of fake and disillusions
I see no move in history
Where am I meant to be?
What is my destiny?
The path I've chosen now has led me to a wall

And though my mind perceived I still was a blind man
And not the one who understands
For life's a mystery
Of things your eyes can't see
Faith is the key to inspiration

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - For there's love that never ends
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

So I began to trust in my instinctive feelings
To live in truth and harmony
One day you realize
It's right before your eyes
Truth is the key to inspiration

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - For love will never end
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

In this world
Faith, hope and charity
Lead us to the one

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - My love will never end
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

Carry on, and you will see
Life ain't no misery
Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

Carry on, you'll see the light
Your star is shining bright
Carry on, Carry on

I see a world that's full of fake and disillusions
I see no move in history
Where am I meant to be?
What is my destiny?
The path I've chosen now has led me to a wall

And though my mind perceived I still was a blind man
And not the one who understands
For life's a mystery
Of things your eyes can't see
Faith is the key to inspiration

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - For there's love that never ends
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

So I began to trust in my instinctive feelings
To live in truth and harmony
One day you realize
It's right before your eyes
Truth is the key to inspiration

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - For love will never end
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

In this world
Faith, hope and charity
Lead us to the one

[Refrain]
Carry on - Carry on, my dear old friend
Carry on - My love will never end
Carry on - Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

Carry on, and you will see
Life ain't no misery
Carry on, Carry on, Carry on

Carry on, you'll see the light
Your star is shining bright
Carry on, Carry on

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

Fire... fire... fire...

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... the fire below... fire below...

They take you to Hell
Into the fire
They take you to Hell
Into the fire
They're taking you down, down, down,
into the fire
They're taking you down,
into the fire
The fire below

[Music/Lyrics: Richter]

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?...

Music: Scheepers/Lyrics: Scheepers

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 in one of the things that I love,
Free time is one of the things enjoy.

The sin goes down, we're gonna see a movie.
How happy life could be without any work.

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

Rising again

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

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

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

Rising again

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
Chorus:
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
Chorus
Solo: Kai/ Dirk/ Kai
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

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 ...
Chorus:
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
Chorus
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
Chorus

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,
everything grows 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 stage of hell

Take me to the gardens of the sinner,
Take me down and let me rest in peace
Now the time of 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
Celebrate the time of truth for everyone
The fallen angel stands in victory ...

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

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...

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

[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

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 below the dark lord waits
To fight our souls with hate,
Our hearts with rage

10.000 dreams, for glory rise
Now they're awaiting
the hand of fate tonight

So we have gathered here
beyond the endless skies
And we are marching on and on
forever 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're awaiting
the hand of fate tonight

10.000 dreams, for glory rise
Now they're awaiting
the hand of fate tonight

10.000 dreams, and still we ride
Now we're awaiting
the hand of fate tonight

[Heading For Tomorrow]

Time has passed in the modern world,where the madmen live and speak their world.

Life in hand they deal with god,put a trademark sign up on everyone.



God bless the childrean, freedom is their word,freedom, freedom, till 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 here 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, reason, the question will remain.

Where will the children go tomorrow ?



(Solo)



Hey you, where do you go ?

Heading for tomorrow.

Hey you, where do you go ?

Heading for my life.

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.



(Solo)



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 are near.

Music: Schlachter
Lyrics: Hansen/ Schlachter

When I wake up at the end of the day
Now comes out sun fades away
I get myself out of my ned 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, something 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.
Am I see genius and insanity

You're alive - you're part of the show
You come to foresee the signs on the wall

So many tried in vain - they know the truth
Learn - how to live and fiht and learn-
How to fight them right and learn - how to gone 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 read them could you be the one who's creeping on the floor
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 (repeat 4 times)

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
How 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 doin' the ball
Everything is beautiful - even the band - it's magic
Imagine you're superstar you gonna fly
You gonna go far - so far

Solo Dirk

Oh won't you come to heal me - hear me (repeat 4 times)

I 'm high over mountains
I conquer the stormy seas
I 'll capture your fortress
Bring you down on your knees

I'm living the dream
Break the chains of oppression from you
In the Land of the Free
I am calling for you

I might come with thunder
I might come with rain
The choice's not given
I will master your pain

The edge of a dream
See the glimpse of a new horizon
Life is not what it seems
Oh, can't you see

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begins
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the wind

Hear my prayer
Where's the saviour
Voice of anger will echo with force

Watch the sunrise
Taste of freedom
Heart is bleeding
I ride through the eye of the storm

Hold on to your dreams
Say farewell to the grand illusion
Blinded eyes never see
In the Land of the free

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begin
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the...

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begin
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the wind
On the wind
On the wind

Too many people,
too much rouble,
Too many problems in the morn.
Another 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.

후렴
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 thousand 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.

후렴

let it wait.

(기타 솔로)

Our eyes are closed
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.

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

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

Inside the power cage, I can feel the music of my age
It's paranoid first degree, It's telling me that I'm not free

I've got Heavy Metal Music in my blood,
And I'd like to get it to you if I could.
As I lie here in the fright of darkness, the wings of light remove the veil

It's Heavy, Heavy, Heavy, Heavy, Heavy Metal Mania all the way.
Rock and Roll was far too slow, and so the adrenaline just doesn't flow
Where is the power, where is the glory, Heavy Metal is my story.

I've got Heavy Metal Music in my blood,
And I'd like to get it to you if I could.
As I lie here in the fright of darkness, the wings of light remove the veil

I've got Heavy Metal Music in my blood,
And I'd like to get it to you if I could.
As I lie here in the fright of darkness, the wings of light remove the veil

'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

Taken where the thunder roars into the blazing light
The hand of fate is crushing down before me
The eyes of god have turned away, no angels are in sight
As I face the final chapter of our story

And now I hear the millions cry - Screaming!
Into oblivion you take their lives
Hell is thy home

[Chorus 1]
Hell is thy home... darkness thy destiny
Where you belong... no need for sympathy
The Antichrist is back again
Disguised as the savior of man

(servants of evil, breed evil)
Storm fills the clouds
I'll wait for the fall
Sowing the end
Grace comes to fall

And now you're waiting for a sign - Dreaming
The day is near when all the world is thine
Because hell is thy home... yeah

[Chorus 2]
Hell is thy home... darkness thy destiny
Where you belong... no need for sympathy
Again you watch the millions die
No tears in your eyes
And your followers will hail
The forces of evil won't fail

In the great white hall
A monster's working on the fall
It's bloody war will kill us all

[Chorus 3]
Hell is our home... darkness thy destiny
Where we belong... no need for sympathy
Hell is thy home... darkness thy destiny
Where you belong... no need for sympathy

Hell is our home
Hell is our home
Hell is our home

(Japanese bonus track)
As You burn my dreams before my eyes,
All I've ever loved
I'm falling through an empty void,
I will not return
Im falling from grace,
And im wrong in this place,
And no-one can save me today
The silence is streaming,
I wish i was dreaming,
And no-one is there who
will take it away....
Hellfire - Its burning my soul,
i have lost my belief
Hellfire - I burn on the flame,
and i cannot break free
Ah ahhh!
Oh, i wish that i could live in peace,
Love and harmony
Someone always brings me down,
Back to misery
Im riding a twister,
My soul is ablister,
Starting to crack on the road
In tensement he rises,
The beast tantalises,
The harvest, the people
have lost all control
Hellfire - Its burning my soul,
i have lost my belief
Hellfire - I burn on the flame,
and i cannot break free
Ah ahhh!
(Solo)
Im sick of the silence,
This time calls for violence,
And out of the darkness i rise
Extremely aggressive,
My senses affected,
They swear he's a hero,
Im ready to fight!
Hellfire - Its burning my soul,
i have lost my belief
Hellfire - I burn on the
flame, and i cannot break
free...
Hellfire
Hellfire

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

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
We are heroes...!
Heroes....

HOLD YOUR GROUND
Music: Hansen/Lyrics: Hansen

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 snare 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.

So here I stand again on the island of madness and pain
My fate is calling me to walk out of the dark and the rain
If I could go where I can walk, I can run, I can breathe
Where destiny is clear from the smoke and the smell of debris

I raise my hands up to the voices in the sky
Forever I must go and find the other side

[Chorus]
How can we go on from here if we don't stop the war?
And how can we lose all the fear if we don't stop the war?

Now you stand before me, you ask me where to go
Just go and do it your way, 'cause really I don't know

My mind is going crazy, my head is spinning round
Been searching for the saviour, he's nowhere to be found

And when I raise my head up to the sky
Then still the question will be burning in my mind

[Chorus]
How can we go on from here if we don't stop the war?
And how can we lose all the fear if we don't stop the war?

How long will it take how long will it take?
How long will it take until we stop the war?

I said...

[Chorus]
How can we go on from here if we don't stop the war?
And how can we lose all the fear if we don't stop the war?

How long? How long? How long?
I said
How long? How long? How long?

Stop the war!
[Repeat 5 times]
Fuck the war!
Oh yeah.. yeah.. yeah..

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

I look out to the stormy sea
I wish upon a star
Pulsating light to comfort me
But, oh, it seems so far

So, as I stand, I realize
I wish that I'll be there
About to give up all my life
And vanish in thin air

But I know, as I dream
All the world has passed me by
And I know I should do better
For you and me tonight

I'm coming home, yeah...!

There were stars in the eyes at the masquerade
And the King was lost in the grand illusion
Well, the day has come, they've lost the way
And the Joker laughs at the mass confusion
They stand and stare

Now, listen, all you people
This is what I say:
Raise my voice in anger
I'm trying to get away
...From all

Now, listen, what you're doing
Is just not good at all
The silly games you're playing
Are raising up the wall

Time goes by
The world we love
Is gone...forever

Are we ever gonna change our way?
Will we ever stop the fury?
Is it life, or will we just decay?
Will we lose or stand in glory?

Insurrection ? God election
Heavy changes make my day
Storm the spire, hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way

Insurrection

Masses will be rising, marching forces neutralizing
All the powers in the world with raging fury
Enemies are falling down; their blood is spilled on holy ground
The end is near for maximizing profits

Why...do we have to fight, why...?
Close your eyes...and die

Are we ever gonna change our way?
Will we ever stop the fury?
Is it life, or will we just decay?
Will we lose or stand in glory?

Insurrection ? God election
Heavy changes, disobey
Storm the spire, hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way

Insurrection

The king of damnation learned from the old
The harvest of fury
Love is the answer, blood is the oath
Red are the canyons

Friend or foe, we have been trying
Queens and kings, all have been lying
All the same, all devastating
All I see when contemplating hope

Here I stand alone and I have lost the way
The eyes of a believer turning to stone
Silent, no more tears; the emptiness is mine
Only rain is falling, dripping on the trail
Father of the Earth, I am calling you
Dry your tears away and give me hope
Fill my heart with strength
And give power to my soul
Let magic fill the sky and take me home
Singing....
Ooh... Let me go!

Are we ever gonna change our way?
Will we ever stop the fury?
Is it life, or will we just decay?
We must fight to stand in glory!

Insurrection ? God election
Heavy changes, disobey
Storm the spire, hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way....

I look out to the stormy sea
I wish upon a star....

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
I'm riding on into the storm

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
I'm riding on into the storm

As 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 when or where or who
has one thing in common too

it's a it's a it's a it's a sin

it's a sin

My father taught me how to be
So pure of thought.. and word and deed
he didn't quite succeed

for everything I long to do
no matter when or where or who
has one thing in common too

it's a it's a it's a it's a sin

everything I've ever done
everything I'll ever do
everyplace 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
cuz I didn't care and I still don't
understand

Now as 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 when or where or who
has 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 sin

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
Before... 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

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
