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
Out of the valley of death, the man turns his back Stares up to the hills, his eyes burning red He licks his palm, with brown dried blood Turns, grinning teeth, up to his lord The darkness of the night turns bright at his cry, So quiet but deadly Burning deep within, and now he will begin He cries out to his lord forevermore
It's the razorblade sigh, shooting up to the sky Blood on the wings, one of the kings There's a burning within, when the storm closes in He is one of a kind, in the hands of time Razorblade
His raging fire burns you with desire As you're taken down into his gravity He wants you now, into his masterplan And he'll be taking you into his dignity Tires are burning on the way through hell Fallen angel set me free Wheels are turning, take me far below Holding out my hands in victory
It's the razorblade sigh, shooting up to the sky Blood on the wings, one of the kings There's a burning within, as the storm closes in He is one of a kind, in the hands of time Razorblade, Razorblade
Death angel is coming , you see him ride across the land Time in his hands
The darkness of the night turns bright at his cry It's burning deep within He cries for more As I awake, at the end of the road there's a rainbow Slowly he'll fade , the dawning of time On the wings of the razor ... As I awake, at the end of the road there's a rainbow Slowly he'll fade away , the dawning of time On the wings of the razorblade
Out of the dark He came without a warning The guarding light I didn't see ... On a storytellers night He spoke his words of wisdom The tales he told from far beyond That no one understood He had the gift of prophecy He wove a web of mystery A thousand lifes shone gracious in his eyes
*Send me a sign For too long you kept me waiting Send me a sign From the eternal skies Send me a sign Send me a sign
He disappeard In the early haze of morning And with him left his prophecies They didn't care ...
All the years that passed away He's locked inside my head His tales became reality The prophecies he said He was the chosen one to see His words will burn eternally It hurts, that no one understands
* Repeat
He had the gift of prophecy He gave a guarding light to me I know, he set my spirit free Send me a sign ... Send me a sign Send me a sign For too long you kept me waiting Send me a sign To open their eyes Send me a sign Send me a sign Send me a sign Send me a sign
We lay our souls into your hands and our freedom remains We ride on wings of hope and our star will rise again
Run before you die Can't you hear the warning No regrets tonight Now your end is coming It's your sacrifice To destroy your body Now you pay the price Raging fury lasts forever
Their mission is so glorious Rising hope in all of us There we stand united hand in hand
They come from a land far beyond A million miles behind the sun They come from nowhere brave inside Strangers in the night
Time is running by No more deadly spirals Now we realize Pray for our survival
Eyes are shining glorious Marching in victorious There they stand united hand in hand
They come from a land far beyond A million miles still riding on They come from nowhere brave inside Strangers in the night
They come for freedom, Come to fight Come to save us all We are one until we die, Waiting for the call
They come from a land far beyond A million miles behind the sun They come to lead us to survive Strangers in the night
We lay our souls into your hands and our freedom remains We ride on wings of hope and our star will rise again (x3)
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 ...
So now we talk about destruction, A human race that's left to die Nobody ever will believe it Until we face it eye to eye
Let's talk about hell
Our future shines in darkest colours, You'll never change it, never will Ain't nothing left now to believe in And so we face the overkill
Hey mother mercy leave me be Do you expect me now to cry
Time will wait for noone Time is short as hell Time , Time, Time, is short as hell
All is lost, into the underworld we fade until our life is gone count the cost, then from the darkness wiped away into the underworld we fade where darkness awaits
Time will wait for noone Time is short as hell, hell, hell Time ...
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
Do you remember the days When living was meant to be free Not looking for fortune, not looking for fame The beauty of life was the key
We lived as one to conquer the world A thousand dreams to come true We knew in the end we'll find The meaning of life and the truth
Once proud and full of passion we formed a better world We fought against oppression and wisdom was our sword
On the path of glory we searched the rainbows end Lives meant to share, where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny We're kings without a throne If you believe in unity Believe, 'cause you're not alone Sad wings of destiny The haunting thoughts of pain The world's a patient majesty, but believe The time, the time will take its toll
Now it's the time for a change The days of your childhood are gone The fool and the wise man will burn at the stake Confusion remaining too long
Violence and hate I won't see anymore The innocent victims of fate The prophets have written their words on the wall Wake up before it's too late
On the path of glory we searched the rainbows end Lives meant to share, where's the sign that we'd sent? On sad wings of destiny We're kings without a throne If you believe in unity Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sad wings of destiny The haunting thoughts of pain The world's a patient majesty, but believe Believe, if you won't change your mind All will remain the same And soon, we'll find a common end
On the path of glory we'll search the rainbows end Lives meant to share, where's the sign that we'd sent?
On sad wings of destiny We're kings without a throne If you believe in unity Believe, 'cause you're not alone
Sweet child of innocence Are you drowning in your tears? The time has come for you my friend Don't hide from evil made by your own hands Let us try to fly again One day we'll rise again On wings of hope to be free ...
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
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain Don't you know you're driving me insane You're tryin' to find your way through life You're tryin' to get some new direction Another woman got her man She won't find no new connection
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
Takes another look around, you're not goin' anywhere You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care You're tryin' to find your way again You're tryin' to find some new... Another woman's got her man But she won't find a new...
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
You 'bin foolin' with some hot guy I want to know why is it why Get up get out you know you really blew it I've had enough, I've had enough, good God pluck me
Once she was wonderful Once she was fine Once she was beautiful Once she was mine...she was mine
Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore
Changes, changes, changes, changes Victim of changes
Racing' cross the heavens Straight into the dawn Looking like a comet Slicing through the morn Scorching the horizon Blazing to 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 smoulder 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 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 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 everyone You'll never see him But you will taste the fire upon your tongue
Racing past the heavens Straight into the dawn Looking like a comet Slicing through the morn Scorching the horizon Blazing to 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
Voices are calling from somewhere bellow melting on the eastern shore Rain is falling down on me, been waiting for eternity... be there! Freedom for us all!
And I wonder why, why my heart still yearns and I wonder why, why the earth still turns and I wonder why, why the sky turns black Still I wonder why, but there is no turning back
For all eternity, for all the world to see we riding high across the wind and when the storm begins, to wash away all sins we find a place where we begin
There something wrong with the world today, only the people that are fighting for... ...a better place in the world today, they don believe that they gone too far, ...they falling down.
By moonlight there a way... for rebellion here, the world has gone astray... revolution Now, the time has come to pray... hallelujah deep, inside our minds we wait... for rebellion Here in dreamland we will not obey the masters
... and the earth still turns but I on my way, he is on the way, as my heart still yearns ... I on my way, now he is on the way, and I cry for more Yes I on my way, now he is on the way, gonna find the secret wall
I have seen the secret dreams of those who know eternity and makes me feel like a shadow sneaking in In my sleep I searching for a way to find the open door leading me to where it all begins
There nothing wrong with the world today...
By moonlight there a way... for rebellion here, the world has gone astray... revolution Now, the time has come to pray... hallelujah deep, inside our minds we wait... for rebellion Here in dreamland we will not obey the masters
SOLO: Kai
Now riding through the air going to where no one dares on the way cross the line forevermore. For once in life, I do not care nothing matters, now I dare On the ride cross the line forever to be free
I'm a man on a mission And my deligence won't wait There are supersonic killers in the sky Everything you do will be analyzed, They control every step of your life
Well, mankind has gone to a high extreme To the dark side on the way All I see is a masquerade And the termination waits
Oh, I've seen the faces of a million leaving here Abandoned times and places of a world Built out of fear The quest is drawing near The mystery of fear is just about to clear
What we need right now, is a miracle on earth Let out hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard Let us walk away together >From the neverending rain, 'Til the sun will shine for all of us again
So we travel on at the speed of light And the gods will light our way Gotta change our part in the masterplan For another break in the race
And the trumpet sound will soon be heard As the dead in mind awake And the joyful saints will guide us On the onward fight that we take
Oh, I've seen a million Leaving right away from here Abondoned times and places of a world Built out of fear The quest is drawing neart The mystery of hear is just about to clear
Chorus
Take my hand and you will see The mirror of your destiny So many came to read the signs, To understand their meaning Now I see it's you and me, So try to understand And wee will walk the road of life Together hand in hand I do not dare, I do not dare But something's calling me For those who dared could not break free The one who will succeed, I wonder, is it me?
Solo: Kai
Give us a chance to live Give us a chance to die Give us a chance to be free Without fire from the sky Give us a chance to love Give us a chance to hate Give us a chance, before you kill us all Before you kill us, kill us all Before you kill us, before you kill us all Before you kill us
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
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
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...
