Innocence tainted by pure lunacy
Cursed by the slash of a shape-shifting beast Oh no, this can't be Demonic infection, a doomed changeling His future concealed as he begs to be told A kiss from the gypsy, he'll never grow old Oh no, this can't be Demonic infection, a doomed changeling (Chorus) Even a man who's pure And says his prayers by night (He won't hear your prayers) Man become a wolf When the wolf bane blooms, And the autumn moon is bright (There's a full moon tonight) Man may become a wolf. He who is bitten by a wolf and lives Possession soon follows, no use to resist Oh no, this can't be Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling The madness a turmoil that swells up inside To truly find peace is to truly die Oh no, this can't be Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling Now comes the rampage, a killing spree Hunting his loved ones comes instinctively Oh no, it's maddening A shape-shifting demon of pure lunacy A shot from the darkness tears through its flesh A bullet of silver lays it to rest Oh no, it's maddening An innocent victim finds his peace. |

I feel, you'll see, the night cold and dead
But watch out, we walk proud Together now until the end In these times we walk that line These frozen times Winter nights Bridge: Look up to the sky, see the moonlit night The winter night sends shivers up your spine But it's deep inside your mind that's where you may find Inner demons and your desire Don't give up, don't give up Don't give up, don't you ever give up If you find you've crossed that line Then it's time, a state of mind Believe in what you see Our sacrifice, reality In these times you walk that line these frozen times Winter nights |

Look, out in the distant sky
Open, up your weakened minds Feel, what's in store for you The jackals howling at the moon See, the curtain of the night Falling, down into your life Doom, is headed straight for you The night comes shining through Join us in our never ending journey Into the burning lake of fire Let us fill your helpless soul Fill it with sweet desire When the night falls When the moon's full Recall, the look in their eyes The sign of hat, it burns They've come for us, but we'll fight Till death Hypnotizing, paralyzing Brings me to my knees Tantalizing suicide Drives me to the edge When the night falls, when death crawls Frozen in my sleep Rippers slashing, terror laughing Numbers burning deep Join us in our never ending journey Into the burning lake of fire Let us fill your helpless soul Fill it with sweet desire When the night falls When the moon's full |

Another day just like any other
Out of the blue it turned to horror How could they? Why would they? The innocent suffered hell's inferno A senseless act that goes unforgotten How could they? They will pay When the eagle cries Blood will flow When the eagle cries For freedom's fight When the eagle cries We love her so When the eagle cries We will sacrifice Out of the ashes came a tempting vengeance But we are focused, we seek redemption We are free We'll stay free All they've done is make us stronger The sleeping giant is asleep no longer If need be We'll die free When the eagle cries Blood will flow When the eagle cries For freedom's fight When the eagle cries We love her so When the eagle cries We will sacrifice |

Usher in the rally cries
Revolution's here again The emperor's bonds are broken As free he shall remain Escape, through narrow, was demand While his reign remained in view This fight for France, 'till bitter end He must see it through Coalition forms of many lands Against Napoleon, west to east Dogs of war will take to arms And soon will be unleashed Prussian, Russian and Austrian All follow British lead At allies' helm is Wellington Who must make his foe concede? Chorus: Foreshadowed man of destiny Soon you will be forced to see Nations aligning against you Marking the time your reign is through ...And you will see your hundred days Come to an end Foreshadowed man of destiny Soon you will be forced to see Nations aligning against you Marking the time your reign is through ...It lies before you, fate shall befall you Quickly, the allies gather force Near the Franco-Belgian line While 124,000 French March there in double time As the battle begins Napoleon springs his audacious plan He'll attack them in two fronts Splitting up his warring band As the Prussians sound retreat Behind they leave 12,000 slain Most of their force is still in tact And will live to fight again Wellington, who felt the loss Of 5,000 men Would feel more under cannon fire Bombardment from the French Chorus Bridge: Of all the wars I have waged To propel my nations might For this I'll be remembered From now 'till the end of time If to the victor go the spoils I may die an impoverished man For in the end, irony Has dealt the cruelest hand The French force was swift and sure But their attack would be repelled And though their center battered The Anglo-Dutch line would be held As fate or skill would have it An army moves from the east The Prussians who slipped through his hands Would soon spell his defeat French lines now all broken And being open to attack The emperor has no choice And the old guard pulls him back 45,000 wounded or dead When the fight was finally through On a three mile square of battlefield Near a town named Waterloo Chorus |

Close your eyes and imagine
The soldier, at Valley Forge The suffering that he endured was real Starvation, total war Yet in his eyes, the iron will to win And for the cause he won't relent Chorus: Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust? His providence, our birthright and our creed Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise? Complacency, we're blinded by our greed Standing barefoot, frozen bloody hands His musket clutched in iron grip But for the cause he has but one regret He's only got one life to give Chorus It's time for us to open up our eyes And cherish the lives we all can have And to the ones who kept our freedom free Words can't express all that you've done Chorus |

You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock In London town streets When there's darkness and fog When you least expect me And you turn your back I'll attack I smile when I'm sneaking Through shadows by the wall I laugh when I'm creeping But you won't hear me at all All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper You'll soon shake with fear Never knowing if I'm near I'm sly and I'm shameless Nocturnal and nameless Except for "The Ripper" Or if you like "Jack The Knife" Any back alley street Is where we'll probably meet Underneath a gas lamp Where the air's cold and damp I'm a nasty surprise I'm a devil in disguise I'm a footstep at night I'm a scream of the fright All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper |

Destiny's called us
It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me Revenge is not justice It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me You went too far this time For this heinous crime You will know defeat Begging on your knees One by one you'll fall Your back's against the wall Nowhere to turn You're sure to burn Destiny's called us It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me The hour's close at hand We'll make our final stand Justice shall be done Nowhere to run True evil broods in you You're just a brainwashed fool The coward kills then hides Spewing forth his lies Revenge is not justice It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me Born of destruction, bred in agony Is this my salvation? From these ashes, I am your devastation If it was up to me Eye for an eye I'd seek But the high road we will take Lady Justice is a stake The judgment has been made In blood it shall be paid Death knows what to do The horseman comes from you Destiny's called us It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me Revenge is not justice It's the reckoning This time it's for blood Don't tread on me |

It's dark and peaceful but my face you'll never see, no M: Oh Christine on this eve I will come for you Y: Erik my love, I've waited all my life for you Please just take me I need to be with you M: Take my hand, through the catacombs my lair awaits Y: Caverns, mazes, the underworld and the blackest lake. Enticing danger, your passion feeds me I'm your slave Y: Now I've bathed in fear. I will not leave here M: Breathe deep the darkness. Breathe deep the madness Y: I'm so cold inside. Mental suicide M: Breathe deep the darkness. Breathe deep the sadness M: Oh Christine don't you know it's all for you Carlotta's head and the other death's I planned. All for you, to have your night in the spotlight. From now on forevermore you will only sing for me Y: So you are, you are the legend. The Phantom Opera Ghost M: I am what man has made me.

Listen not to ones who preach
Those who feel you're a freak Everything about you is wrong You must be sick, you don't belong Father said, worry not what they say Use your mind, your own free will In a time when everyone follows Ignorance can kill They only say what they want you to hear Half-truths have been twisted to conceal your fate In a world of spoon-fed emotion Intelligence can save Chorus: Stand alone Hear what I say Stand alone You will seize the day Son, say what you mean, don't be afraid Tell them how you feel, hear what I say Be true to yourself and true to your own Your spirit will crush the hearts of stone Stand alone Hear what I say Stand alone It's a leap of faith Stand alone Listen to what I say Stand alone You'll seize the day |

A twisted state of mind, torn between two worlds
One of which the new me hates and the one that's coming true The power is unleashed, they perish at my gaze But am I really in control or am I just a slave I called upon this god to deliver unto me To grant what I desire he brought me to my knees He turned his back on me and filled me with his lies Ask and I received damnation was the price I signed my name in blood, didn't read the fine print Now I'm just a puppet god for the devils own descent Bound and shackled here forever damned a slave Fallen bloody tears can't wash the pain away Chorus All at once it's clear to me Damnation and destiny A slave to darkness shall I be Damnation and destiny And so I must repent or will I be destroyed Will the one that lives in me release me from this lie And will the wrath of god have mercy on my soul Or humilate me, desecrate me, like his only son Repeat Chorus |

Shooting Star
Johnny was a schoolboy when he heard his first Beatles song Love Me Do, I think it was, from there it didn't take him long Got himself a guitar, used to play every night Now he's in a rock and roll outfit and everything's allright Don't you know Johnny told his mama, "Hey, Mama I'm goin' away I'm gonna hit the big time, gonna be a big star some day" Mama came to the door with a teardrop in her eye Johnny said, "Don't cry Mama, smile and wave goodbye" Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are Johnny made a record, went straight up to number one Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing his song Watching the world go by, sometimes it can go so fast Johnny looked around him and said, "Damn I made the big time at last" Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are A shooting star. . . Johnny died one night, died in his bed Bottle o' whiskey, sleeping tablets by his head Johnny's life passed him by like a warm summer day And if you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are A shooting star. . . |

The son of a major, Prussian nobleman
His name bestowed by a holy Roman The war broke out, and looked to the air 24 hours of training he was there 100 miles an hour Top speed his plane would fly And if he flew behind you You know you're sure to die 80 kills and all confirmed While other pilots had so much More to learn Chorus: Red baron, blue max The albatross flies high Red baron, blue max He's got you in his sights Bridge: The red battle flyer, red like fire He sees no faces, the ace of aces His British quarry flew a reckless flight A shot from the ground took the red baron's life He flew with honor, he flew with pride In 1918 the battle flyer died Chorus |

There is a place far from her home
She strayed her path too long In that wood, she found the stone Lost souls should never look upon At first glance, a lone monolith Lifeless, cold and grey She looked in deep, this timeless relic The lost fall easy prey Come into my world, my child I will take you home I'm your Reaping Stone Come into my world, my child I will take you home I'm your Reaping Stone Think not of ones you've lost Nor of ones you leave I shall give you strength to pass I will set you free Come into my world, my child I will take you home I'm your Reaping Stone Come into my world, my child I will take you home I'm your Reaping Stone |

Cannons pound into the night
Angels soar into the sky The battle rages on Deliverance unholy one The seeds of hate fly tonight Good and evil light the sky Another vision from inside I know it's wrong I can't deny For seven years I have reigned In this damned and desolate hell Now I've lived the masters vengeance It saved me from myself We paint the sky with blood tonight Setting free the damned to fight The whore of Babylon is here The end of the storm is near Chorus: Pure evil Feel the pain from the jackals wrath Pure evil Dance in flames for the final quest Hear the ghost of violence Fear the God of detriment The land on earth is soaked with blood Hear the screams of the helpless ones Axes yield and daggers fly Ripping through all flesh in sight We paint the sky with blood tonight Setting free the damned to fight The whore of Babylon is here The end of the storm is near Repeat chorus |

I can see clearly now, a painful vision indeed
An attack on hallowed ground, from high above Alien to us, the species known as man A serious threat, in the eyes of the Elder So heed my warning, before our own existence falls near extinct Our culture is lost in ancient mystery, covered in the sands of time A sacred few survive the massacre this night In secret they will meet a new society Ten thousand years from now, a child will be born I've seen the vision, the writing on the wall He'll walk the Earth, two thousand years or more Paving the way, for mankind's fall So there is hope you see, but we must act with great speed Assemble the chosen, the ones to lead, and morph them in the likeness of man Oppressed for centuries, await the prophecy The child will set us free, reclaim it rightfully We'll take their identity and live among them free All the while, plotting events that mold their history We'll build the perfect beast with the knowledge that they seek If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat Assassins we will be, through human history Jesus Christ to Kennedy, the Domino Decree Disciples of the Watch, prepare the coming curse If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat And so, our world is doomed, we'll lay claim again some day There is hope, in the birth of one, so many centuries away |

You won't see us there, you won't feel our stare But when we're next to you we do all we can do To get the cold sweat out, watch you squirm about And as you try to move we grab and strangle you With all of your deceit and our reality Night Nightmares In the night Hell is coming down, your fate has turned around Too scared to make a sound Now you're frozen there in your human shell It's a nightmare I am the god of fear Night Nightmares In the night |

I...I am a bastard son
Conceived of a hundred men Now I'm the Chosen One Back, looking back Father William called me Johnny But my mother called me Jack I...I scream out to you As I see them take you Hell, it put me through You...you gave me life Then ripped out my emotion And replaced it with a knife I cut you once, I cut you twice You're my midnight sacrifice You shamed me...you shame God You scream my name, and now you're gone I've seen the rain wash over you a thousand times Your flesh summons me God knows why Repent your sins to me Now...you're no different now Still the same, the Devil's whore Lilith on the prowl I...I've got something for you I know what real pain is And you will too I cut you once, I cut you twice You're my midnight sacrifice You shamed me...you shame God You scream my name, now you're gone |

What do I see on the icy plains
The desolate one, it's my terrain The wind it blows cold, howling my name I am the king, the king of this waste Can't you see this barren land lain to waste Ravaged, scorched, yet frozen from your neglect I am the formless one, I came to save You are the chosen ones, you'll be my slaves I stand on the glacier above it all Watching them crumble, watching them crawl Iced Earth has risen, nature will fall Death and destruction mark them or fall Can you feel the madness here Drawing you all too near Earth, fire, water and air Save yourselves from despair We are together now Crush the cowards, do it now End the light, end the one We have come to save the young ones So on an on the story goes Destroying yourselves, the pain it shows Music - Jon Schaffer Lyrics - Jon Schaffer |

I can't believe this now
This isn't what I planned I lived and died and now I just can't understand With all the love I feel I could never leave her No matter what the cost My soul's the price to see her Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything The pain was just too much When I finally saw her She's happy and in love In love with my best friend What makes it hurt so bad Is that I love them both And they will never know For love, I sold my soul Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything |

Emptiness, consuming me
Head in hands, I can hardly speak Looking for solitude Lost in humanity True knowledge leads to a suffering A constant quest, an endless dream Searching for inner peace Hidden so deep in me Chorus: Don't wanna be a hollow man Ain't gonna be the hollow man Don't wanna be a hollow man Ain't gonna be the hollow man Sadness comes knocking constantly Filling up my eyes for all to see Peace will come some day I pray that it finds a way Darkness caressing my mind and soul My spirit's rejecting, I'm feeling whole Emptiness goes away Fills with the light of day Chorus Bridge: I rise up like the Phoenix Form the ashes of an older way With wisdom gained, I turn away I turn away Hollow man find yourself some other prey Chorus |

Every time you think about it
It tears you up inside You curse the day your mother told you, your father died Now you're always searching Searching for the reason why I've gone But I will always be here By your side, through the darkest night Here I'll stand on the firing line Here I'll walk through the field where I died I will fight and let the voice ring true I am the ghost Standing next to you Every night you go to sleep You pray the Lord my soul to keep You don't know I've not gone away You see I watch over fighting men So they can have peace again And maybe someday you will all be free Here I'll stand on the firing line Here I'll walk through the field where I died I will fight and let the voice ring true I am the ghost Standing next to you You speak to me And I feel your pride Assuring me I'll never die I write Mother... "He's here with me..." He's in our minds He's in our souls Of sacrifice his story's told He holds the flame of freedom for all to see Here we stand on the firing line Here I'll walk in the field where I fight I will fight or die for liberty With the ghost standing next to me Don't tread on me...live free or die!!! To our fallen brothers You died to keep us free To our fallen brothers Who gave us liberty!!! |

A mastermind in the old watchtower
Prying eyes must never find. Playing God in the final hour Insanity, such a fine line Overwhelmed by the mourning process And the loss of his dearly loved The Doctor's work is now obsession What is life? What's beyond? He wants to know what it's like to be God Creating life with his own hands To reanimate lifeless tissues The Devil's work, the doctor's plan A man of wealth and a genius mind A slave to passion and his morbid side Robbing graves of the newly dead Erratic tendencies, a troubled mind I will create in my own image If God can then why can't I? No thought of the consequences I've got to know the meaning of life Lightning strikes, it's the witching hour The monstrosity comes alive A victim of man's vanity Born in delirium, a deranged child He turns his back on his own creation Chaos ensues, the innocent die Who's the monster? Who's the victim? Crucify!!! Crucify!!! |
