BREAK THE ICE
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Lassila) Why do you stare at me? It's hard to please when you're feeling ill at ease. Hey let it go, You have feelings inside let them show. Grim craven mind, Timid all the time. Can't come out of your shell. It's Hell. It's time to break the ice. Shame on you, There ara so many things that you could do. Hey can't you see? Love is a stream that endlessly flows in me. Grim craven mind, Timid all the time. Can't come out of your shell. It's Hell. It's time to break the ice. |

LEAD US INTO THE LIGHT
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki) Hey you, take a look around, Can you feel the change begin? Soon it will be too late, if you don't wake up. Outside the winds are blowing and the people are staring so cold. The look that's in their eyes, Tells me somethings wrong. Lead us into the light. It's so strange, We have come so far. Still knowing what will happen, when we close our eyes. Is this the hell on earth? And the heaven is out of our sight, open your eyes realize, It's not too late. Lead us into the light. |

MADNESS STRIKES AT MIDNIGHT
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki) He's crawling out from the asylum. Under cover of the night. Insanity of his crazy mind. It's useless for you now to hide. Walking the streets someone's in sight. He's waiting for you in the night. Hiding the shadows. Hiding the alleys He's ready to kill tonight. So lock your doors and hide And prey your God 'cause you're not alone. Years he spent in the cage, They did not help him at all. Now today with the power of his rage. He's slaughtering people tonight. Walking the streets someone's in sight. He's waiting for you in the night. Hiding the shadows. Hiding the alleys He's ready to kill tonight. So lock your doors and hide And prey your God 'cause you're not alone. Madness strikes at midnight. |

Out Of The Shadows
Out to the light from the mist From the shadows I go Facing the new world the odd things The places unknown Far away I sail away today Seeing a new face impression the moment The thought Unarmed and naked defendless My mind is caught Far away it sails away to stay Out of the shadows we go There's no reason to hide anymore Out of the shadows we go Into the new horizon Towards the new shore we go |

The Hands Of Time
The time is running It's running so fast that you don't notice Years are passing by And you're growing older What happened to all your dreams? Did they become true at all? We cannot undo the deeds of the years They leave you on your own With all your deepest fears Don't look for the future Don't live in the past Just take it day by day 'cause life goes fast The minutes, the hours The days and the years will fly so Live still when you have the time We cannot undo the deeds of the years They leave you on your own With all your deepest fears Wheel of the time Turns again tonight Eternally decides our destiny Wheel of the time Turns again tonight Without reason or rhyme The hands of time |

Come with me my child.
It's gonna take a little while to teach you the knowledge of the ancient rhyme. Fly with me tonight, Through the cosmic sea it's a mystery. From the thirst for life you will never keep away. Pleasure of one man makes another man a prey. Fly with me tonight. Through the cosmic sea, It's a mystery. The hills have eyes, Mind your step, you'll better be wise or you never rise again. The hills have eyes Never forgive nor compromise you fail in vain. |

(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki-Lassila) Danger zone. I look into the mirror see my face again I hear myself preaching. You are getting bold, Growing old Skin turns cold. You're to blame but I will fing the way to be myself again. I break the mirror with the noise. Stop preaching me, Teaching me, Leave me be. There's no way to stop me now. My end is in sight. I reach for the light, Tonight. Twilight Time, It's twilight time. Reaching for the morning light. Twilight Time. |

This time it's gonna be different So let's all join our hands And let the children sing For the last time 4th reich is rising Can't you see the signs? 4th reich is rising For the last time Let's just press more money Don't worry about the inflation We got to have more weapons to carry on Unemployment and sorrow Cannot be avoided at this point But things will be so different When they are ruling the world 4th Reich is rising Can't you see the signs? 4th Reich is rising For the last time What will be left to our children?

I'm out on the open sea, the wind is embracing me.
I'm watching the setting sun, far far away from you. There's not much that I could do. Do you know what's the only way for me. ** Into the depths I fall, into the unknown darkness I go Down down down Falling into the Abyss A morning of no recall, no memory nothing at all. The sun is blinding my eyes. The pain I feel in my head, I think I'll go back to bed or should I have just one more. ** repeat |

Like the birds in the sky we are flying so high, without making any kind of sacrifice. We've got so little time to undo this crime or we'll lose our Paradise. * It seems to me that there's no sense at all, nobody cares it's always the same.

As we are reaching the end Of the century there's message we can send Be strong and bold and never lose your mind Cause we are the last World keeps turning while people yearn for more Mother nature is crying for a change Time will come when we all must pay for what We have done, are you prepared for that? The signs of the end I see Let them hear my voice in every corner of the world Take heed of the warnings that I give I have seen the southern cross forming in the sky |

These empty days are filling me with pain
After I left it seems my life is only rain My heart is longing to the better times When everything was still so fine I wonder why it happens so fast You give your heart away knowing it might not last I'm still here waiting for the rain to fall And to see you once again 4000 rainy nights 4000 nights I'd be with you 4000 rainy nights With you I keep your memory in my heart You give me hope when everything is so dark That thing nobody can take away Forever in me 4000 rainy nights 4000 nights I'd be with you 4000 rainy nights With you |

The setting sun creates another world
The shadows fall another day is in the end The Paradise is sleeping peacefully And one more day is again history Tell me can we go on like this? Everybody is living in a bliss Are these the last times of our Mother Earth? Or is it just beginning of new Birth? Don´t be afraid we must be wise Patient and peaceful and strong Maybe it´s like you would throw the dice Then hope that nothing goes wrong Remember that you have the right to say All things that you feel inside Open your mind and you open your eyes Together now is the time Sing the Anthem Of The World But will we ever learn To control our hate and to forgive We must learn to find the way To just live another day And be free like an Eagle in the sky How about if God just let us down? If he just is polishing his crown? What´s the key to the Universe? Is life down here just one big endless curse? Don´t be afraid... Sing the Anthem Of The World... |

Summer's gone a while ago, the daylight dims away
I'm watching here how the snow begins to fall Yesterday's like a dream, a memory in my head Like all the life's gone behind the winter wall I'm lighting up the candles and lock the door Sitting by the fire, it's time to dream some more *I have to find a way how to survive I am surrounded by the starlight I have to find the path how to escape From the cold winter nights And in the morning there's no trace of the sun Just gray fog hanging above my head All the birds are quiet hiding in the woods Can't see no movement, are they all dead? I'm lighting up the candles and lock the door Sitting by the fire, it's time to dream some more * repeat |

The times are changing so fast
I wonder how long it lasts The clock is ticking, time is running out The hatred fills this Earth And for what it's worth We're in the end before we know Throughout the years I have struggled to find The answer that I never knew It strucked me like a million lightnings And here I am telling to you Every second of day it is coming your way Future unknown is here to stay Got to open your mind or you will be led to astray There's a time to live There's a time to die But no one can escape the destiny Look all these things we've done Under the burning sun Is this the way to carry on? So take a look at yourself And tell me what do you see A wolf in clothes of the lamb? Throughout the years I have struggled to find The answer that I never knew It strucked me like a million lightnings And here I am telling to you Every second of day it is coming your way Future unknown is here to stay Got to open your mind or you will be led to astray There's a time to live There's a time to die But no one can escape the destiny Let your spirit free Through window of your mind Unchain your soul from hate All you need is faith I control my life I am the one You control your life But don't forget your destiny ... It's time to say goodbye I know it will make you cry You make your destiny I know you'll find the way And outside sun is bright The things will be alright I will be back one day to you So please wait for me |

Hunting High And Low
I feel the wind in my hair, and it's whispering, telling me things, of the storm that is gathering near. Full of power I'm spreading my wings. 내 머릿속으로 바람이 속삭이고 있어 곧 다가올 폭풍을 이야기 해주고 있지 힘으로 충만한 나는 이제 날개를 편다 Now I'm leaving my worries behind. Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey. I'm drifting away with the wind I go... 이제 모든 걱정은 저버리고 몸과 마음의 자유를 느끼면 내 여정을 시작한다 바람에 몸을 맡긴 채 내가 간다 I am Hunting High and Low. Diving from the sky above looking for, more and more. Once again I´m Hunting High and Low. Sometimes I may win sometimes I´ll lose It´s just a game that I play. 내가 안 가는 곳은 없어 난 저 높은 하늘로부터 내려왔어, 그리고 더 많은 것을 찾아서 날아다니고 있어 내 눈을 피할 존재는 없어 살다 보면 이길 때도 질 때도 있지만 이 모든 게 다 게임의 일부야 After the storm there´s a calm. Through the clouds shines a ray of the sun. I am carried from all of my harm there is no-one that I can't outrun. 폭풍이 지나고 나면 고요함이 오지. 구름을 뚫고 햇빛이 빛나는 거야 이제 무엇도 나에게 상처를 주지 못해, 날 쫓아올 존재는 아무도 없어 Now I´m leaving my worries behind- Feel the freedom of body and mind I have started my journey. I'm drifting away with the wind I fly. 이제 모든 걱정은 저버리고 몸과 마음의 자유를 느끼면 내 여정을 시작한다 바람에 몸을 맡긴 채 내가 간다 |

All my life I've been alone I see people passing by And they lower their eyes It's been like this for so many years I had my share on lonely tears My parents left me long ago They did not want to know (Chorus:) Tell me how can I stand the pain? Is there any hope for me at all? Hear me cry in the cold rain I never wanted to become A Neon Light Child There'll come a day when I'll be free I will make people look at me I'll leave everything behind There are good things for me to find (Chorus) I'll be the rain I'll be alone Alone in the rain You left me here |

Mother watch your children
The iron fist of fear is ruling our lives It's not too late to change the course We can make this world a better place to be in How much more do we want until we are satisfied? What happens when we have what we want? Acquiring more, still there's never enough We forget those who really are in need The end is near, or so they say Selling peace with guns Infinity - Where do we go from here? Infinity - Where do we go from here? Infinity - Where do we go? Infinity - Where do we go from here? Guns spitting (out the) message of peace everywhere Is it really that we don't care? See mercenaries of fear selling love Telling salvation comes from above Arrogance and fear walking hand in hand We must see that there's much more to life than this Mother see your children Make us understand and help us to find the way The answers lie inside They are locked inside to the vault of truth for us It's time to spread the word around Be yourself and do what you want to do with your life Remember, you get just what you give You reap all what you sow You are in charge of your own life Where do we go from here? Infinity - Where do we go from here? Infinity - Where do we go? Infinity - Where do we go from here? You make your own way As long as you are here Find your place in life Make your dreams come true There's so much more than this A million ways to live Unlock the door To the universe with love Free your soul |

AGAINST THE WIND
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Kotipelto) Once again I tried to make things work, facing all the power of society. Searching all the answers of the life I'll never make it on my own. Was I meant to fail every time? Seems to me that's my destiny. Is it all that's left for me, confusion and bad memories. But now my time has come, no more running in the dark. I want much more than this, I really want it all. Against the wind we run to every place under the sun. We got so much power inside we will never give up. Against the wind we go, towards the new shore. Together we forget the sorrow it's forever gone. |

Can we still laugh And joke about things like before? There's no need to hide Past that I have left behind It's a good resource Somewhere for me to find Why am I waiting for someone to reach out It shouldn't be all up to them Keeping in touch ain't that easy But I'll have to try Where have all the years gone? That's what I am asking now What have I learned so far? Tell me father time - tell me now Now I understand I'll take from time what I need And I store it inside It's there for me to find I can't deny that the years will pass by But it won't bother me Coz now I will set out To realize my dream Where have all the years gone?

Paradise
Late at night I find myself again wondering and watching tv. I can't believe what's on the screen, something that I wouldn't like to see. Many rare species will perish soon and we'll be short on food. Why do we have to be so selfish, we've got to change our attitude. I know that I am no the only one that's worried, why don't we all wake up, and realize. Like the birds in the sky we are flying so high, without making any kind of sacrifice. We've got so little time to undo this crime or we'll lose our Paradise. It seems to me that there's no sense at all, nobody cares it's always the same. Mother nature's crying out in pain I know we're the one's to blame. |

There are not so many years to be wasted Until the damage is done and the beauty is gone Save our souls What is the price we will pay? Save our souls Do we have nothing to say? |

Today is just another day of my life too short to live.
I should have somekind of meaning a destiny to believe in before I go to sleep. I find some pictures of a time when everything was still so fine. Although the years have passed by. I will give it all I have inside...everything. I'm away lost in my thoughts, everyday my life goes by at the speed of Light. -by 성우- |

The Hands Of Time
The time is running It's running so fast that you don't notice Years are passing by And you're growing older What happened to all your dreams? Did they become true at all? We cannot undo the deeds of the years They leave you on your own With all your deepest fears Don't look for the future Don't live in the past Just take it day by day 'cause life goes fast The minutes, the hours The days and the years will fly so Live still when you have the time We cannot undo the deeds of the years They leave you on your own With all your deepest fears Wheel of the time Turns again tonight Eternally decides our destiny Wheel of the time Turns again tonight Without reason or rhyme The hands of time |

TWILIGHT TIME
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Tolkki-Lassila) Danger zone. I look into the mirror see my face again I hear myself preaching. You are getting bold, Growing old Skin turns cold. You're to blame but I will fing the way to be myself again. I break the mirror with the noise. Stop preaching me, Teaching me, Leave me be. There's no way to stop me now. My end is in sight. I reach for the light, Tonight. Twilight Time, It's twilight time. Reaching for the morning light. Twilight Time. |

Will The Sun Rise?
Throwing my dreams out of my mind casting them into the sky canceling tasks I've delayed for so long now it's do or die I can't be seen I can't be heard but I am here and I am wondering Will the sun rise tomorrow will it light up my sky can I wake up with no sorrow awaiting Will the sun rise tomorrow will I still see the dawn and not worry 'bout the future anymore At the end of each day I promise myself I'd better start to live coz sooner or later I'll find out there's so much I can give I can't be seen I can't be heard but I am here and I am wondering Will the sun rise tomorrow will it light up my sky can I wake up with no sorrow awaiting will the sun rise tomorrow will I still see the dawn and not worry 'bout the future anymore |

BLOODSTONE
(Music: Judas Priest) I've been trying There's no denying It's sending me Out of my mind I've seen reason Change to treason It's losing it's sense Of all kind How much longer will it take For the world to see We should learn to live And simply let it be Bloodstone, bloodstone In the night time Wake in fright I'm so scared of the game That's being played Start to wonder What's going under And how many deals Have been made How much longer will it take For the world to see We should learn to live And simply let it be Bloodstone, bloodstone How much longer will it take For the world to see We should learn to live And simply let it be Bloodstone, bloodstone Bloodstone I can't take it You got me living On a bloodstone I don't want that that bloodstone |

Summer's gone a while ago
The daylight dims away I'm watching here how the snow begins to fall Yesterday's like a dream A memory in my head Like the life's gone behind the winter wall I'm lighting up the candles and lock the door Sitting by the fire It's time to dream some more I have to find a way how to survive I am surrounded by the starlight I have to find the path How to escape from the cold winter nights And in the morning there's no trace of the sun Just gray fog hanging above my head All the birds are quiet hiding in the woods Can see no movement, are they all dead? |

Now it is time for you to close your eyes They've seen much pain it's slowly filling your mind Pretty as they are but now so pale You better leave all your worries far behind Not long ago when you had the Fire Burning inside of you brighter than any flame You were the one that I believed in Keeping our hopes up high where are you now? Where do you aim? Let me take you there To the place you know Why don't you Dream With Me The answers will be found Now it is time to open your eyes again See how all the sorrows have disappeared faded away I am right here waiting for your call If you still need me to guide your pace Through the day Let me take you there To the place you know Why don't you Dream With Me The answers will be found |

FALLING INTO FANTASY
(Music: Tolkki / Lyrics: Kotipelto) I'm sitting by the calm lake And watch the setting sun My feet are in the water The journey's just begun In the mist there is a boat and it's heading towards me On the deck the lady's holding her hand and I agree I'm falling into fantasy The dream goes on We are traveling in the nightfall Until we stop somewhere Descending into water On dark and hazy stairs Now she's leading me to the golden palace that lays ahead She tells me I'm the one in her dreams and on her bed People may come and people may go But dance of time is eternal. What is the meaning of this cosmic play? Will we see another day? I'm falling into fantasy The dream goes on I'm falling into fantasy Drifting alone |
