I'm burning up There's a fire in me The creature is rising It wants to break free The city is waiting It's calling my name I'm ready to be in the game
Mr. Hyde Rules the night While poor little Jekyll Stays home alone The Devil is smiling The Angel will loose And all hell is about To break loose
Like a volcano I need to explode I'm diving in To lust and sin To be a fool To break the rules
I'm running riot (riot) No one will stop me tonight Riot (riot) Until the morning light Sworn to fun Loyal to none Except the devil And my favorite gun
All my senses In anticipation Of a perfect performed Devastation Fever is rising There's no compromising The Beast is unleashed There's no turning back
Duties and routine Keep tying me down Unlock the cage To leave the maze To be a fool To break the rules
I'm running riot (riot) No one will stop me tonight Riot (riot) Until the morning light Sworn to fun Loyal to none Except the devil And my favorite gun
I can't resist My temptations no more The overload Must explode I'll be a fool Breaking the rules
I'm running riot (riot) No one will stop me tonight Riot (riot) Until the morning light Sworn to fun Loyal to none Except the devil And my favorite gun
The sun is up A lonely man Roams an empty city Omnipresent death is all around
Riding on deserted streets In bitter solitude Silence all around Without a human sound
The days passing by In dullness and pain His fatal creation Is all that remains
He is the last man alive The last man alive Sentenced to survive The last of his kind He's seen Armageddon Destroyer and redeemer Beginning and end He's the Omega Man
A new breed of insanity Is lurking in the shadows They are the rulers of the dark
Altered into something else Not human anymore Children of the plague With bleeding marks
What bitter irony Lies in his sin He holds the key To salvation within
He is the last man alive The last man alive Sentenced to survive The last of his kind He's seen Armageddon Destroyer and redeemer Beginning and end He's the Omega Man
The last man alive He's seen Armageddon The last man alive Sentenced to survive Then came the day When he had found the others To pass on his salvation To bring back life again He has been destroyer Now he is redeemer He is the beginning and the end
Evil is hiding in the shadows Of the big, big city lights A man-eating monster Is crawling up your back Getting ready to attack Sick and perverted A psycho's been unleashed With a mind of delusion He turned into the beast
And when the night is falling down He's hunting in the streets
Flesh He's a virtue with the knife Flesh He's eating you alive
Bloodstained he dwells on mortal sin With a sick and morbid grin He is the demon lurking in the dark Enslaved by his obsession He's ripping out your heart
And in the shelter of the dawn He's pleasing his appetite
Flesh He's a virtue with the knife Flesh He's eating you alive
Flesh Flesh
And when the night is falling down And in the shelter of the dawn He's pleasing his appetite
Flesh He's a virtue with the knife Flesh He's eating you alive
Flesh Flesh He's eating you alive Flesh Flesh He's eating you alive
He's cutting you He's slicing you He's eating you alive
Right here, right now I'm looking back To the road that I've been traveling That brought me here I remember Heaven, I saw Hell And now the hour for my return Is drawing near Endless is the moment As if time is standing still Fractions of a minute Like a thousand years Countless are the memories Of all I used to know I'm ready to go Big city lights Are painting the skies My mind is set I'm raising the eyes And by all means I'm coming home To Megatropolis Nowhere my restless heart could find All I've ever longing for Some peace of mind Now I'm standing here where all began Now the world has turned And I became a different man Nothing to regret Boldly I was going to Where no man's gone before Used to be a thunderbird At distant shores Countless are the memories Of my adventurous past Now I am back Back to stay at last Big city lights Are painting the skies My mind is set I'm raising the eyes And by all means I'm coming home Now I keep on wondering What the future holds for me I'm meeting fate so easefully Countless are the visions Of my future road But right now I'm here And I'm help for good Big city lights Are painting the skies My mind is set I'm raising the eyes And by all means I'm coming home To Megatropolis Megatropolis To Megatropolis And by all means I'm made it home Megatropolis I have returned
When the light of the day is fading And dusk is drawing near Seductively unsearchable She appears Her deep blue eyes of a cyborg Scanning potential punters A smile makes them believe That they are the hunters With perfect looks She sells her goods
For money they will get Her fantasies Her lust and dreams She'll bring them down Down on their knees
Cybernetic queen of passion A guarantee of satisfaction And while she burns in fire Melting down in sweet desire Her heart is cold, so cold
So many men did fall So little she cares And even though They've been burnt before They're coming back for more With perfect skills She lulls their wills
And then she gives them All their fantasies Their lust and dreams She brings them down Down to their knees
Cybernetic queen of passion Is guaranteeing satisfaction And while she burns in fire Melting down in sweet desire Her heart stays cold
Cybernetic queen of passion Is guaranteeing satisfaction And while she burns in fire Melting down in sweet desire Cybernetic queen of passion A guarantee in satisfaction Her heart is cold

Down below the city Where the light is cold and dim Creatures without name Are paying for the sin Not dead nor alive In a dark and toxic reign Infected by the virus We failed to reach the aim
Damned to walk the night Access to the world above denied Lost without a cure But as long as we are standing I'll endure
On that very day God has turned away Even though I pray Hear my words
Heal me Heal my scars I'm longing for peace Heal me Heal my pain Let me walk the daylight again
We challenged the creation In the hope to reveal The secrets of the maker When the ancient broke the seal Immortal we are suffering For opening the locks To see what is concealed Inside Pandora's box
Locked up in the night With access to the light above denied Can't you hear my cry When you sleep or die Longing for salvation Set us free
Heal me Heal my scars I'm longing for peace Heal me Heal my pain And let me walk the daylight again
On that very day God has turned away Even though I pray Hear my words
Heal me Heal my scars I'm longing for peace Heal me Heal my pain And let me walk the daylight again Heal me Heal my pain And let me walk the daylight again
Am I surrounded by madness? Or is it just me Who cannot see The greatness of man Fighting and killing ourselves as best As we can Seems as we're breaking For nothing at all People must wake up This is the final call But still I believe That tomorrow Be a brighter day We are dancing on the edge Though we're still in time For that train we need to catch There's a hole in the skies The land is bleeding Doomed to die Selfproclaimed saviors Are slinging the gun Give me a break I cannot go on But still I believe That tomorrow Be a brighter day We are dancing on the edge Though we're still in time For that train we need to catch But still I believe That tomorrow Be a brighter day We are dancing on the edge Though we're still in time For that train we need to catch
I am immortal I am perpetual I am unbreakable I'm bringing fire That swallow up worlds
I'm annihilation I'm a protector I am a savior A keeper of wisdom and knowledge I can bring deliverance I am salvation
Traveled the stars and even beyond But all the places that I saw Weren't holding what I'm searching for Just some peace of mind
And how I wish to be What I can never be Forever I will be enchained Chained to the entity Of the machinery Oh, have mercy on me Set me free
Older than old Never to age A relict of ancient times Deracinated - diluted On the edge of insanity I'm dominator I am damnation
Existence is twisting my soul I am ready to meet my fate Give me salvation
None of my powers Is holding the cure 'Cause after all I'm just a man With a broken dream Not man and not machine
And how I wish to be What I can never be Forever I will be enchained Chained to the entity Of the machinery Oh, have mercy on me Set me free
And how I wish to be What I can never be Forever I will be enchained Chained to the entity Of the machinery Oh, have mercy on me Set me free
I have to leave behind The tortures in my mind Farewell my children, goodbye Forever I gonna fly Like a star I'm in the sky I'll be looking down on you
Farewell and goodbye Farewell and goodbye Farewell and goodbye Farewell and goodbye
I am your leader I'm in command The fate of all my followers Lies in my hand
The burdon of what is right or wrong Decisions have to be made I have to take you all Into this burning gate
Will we ever come back Follow me now We will attack
Never say die On wings of hope we'll fly Never surrender No never - never say die Dragons of light We're leaving tonight The wings of hope bring us high Never say die
Fighters are launching up into the sky On fire they ride Goddess of fate Guide and protect us tonight
Into darkness and shadow So far beyond Oh, I don't know If there will be tomorrow
Never say die On wings of hope we'll fly Never surrender No never - never say die Dragons of light We're leaving tonight The wings of hope bring us high Never say die
Warriors hear my call The Evil has to fall Warriors hear my call The Evil has to fall
SOLO Piet - Kai - Piet - Kai - both
Will we ever come back We're going beyond Follow me now We will attack
Never say die On wings of hope we'll fly Never surrender No never - never say die Dragons of light We're leaving tonight The wings of hope bring us high Never say die
Exploitation - Infestation Life's ectincted - Stars eclipted No light in the black
Dark encounter - Alien frontier Suicide mission - Sacrified We'll never come back
Kill - we came to kill the night We're the warriors of light Fight - we'll fight the evil force We gonna get to the source
Seek and destroy Into the shadow we ride Riding side by side Seek and destroy Defiant we'll attack Seek and destroy The center of the black
Termination - Extirepation Grim incursion - fulfilling the mission By fire and sword Hell - we're hiding underground To Hell we are bound Die - until the final breath We ride in defiance of death
Seek and destroy Into the shadow we ride Riding side by side Seek and destroy Defiant we'll attack Seek and destroy The center of the black
Solo Kai - Solo Piet
Black will be tainted by blazing red The forces of darkness will burn We gonna get to the center tonight And we shall never return
Seek and destroy Into the shadow we ride Riding side by side Seek and destroy Defiant we'll attack Seek and destroy The center of the black
(OK... We could make up a weird explanation of how the lyrics fit into the concept. Fact is they just don't! But we liked the particular sound of the words so much, that we decided to keep them like this anyway...)
Do you believe in the god with a twisted eye Do you believe in hell and what's below Facing the man with the blade and an evil smile The innocence of madness seems to grow
And now you stand and stare and wonder Can you believe in what you see Is there a place beyond the suffering If not for you, there's one for me
I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings
A hundred years I'm riding on I've seen the madness down below A million miles I'm riding strong My destination is unknown I'm leaving from insanity I don't believe in destiny I'm waiting for my sanctuary If not for you, there?s one for me
I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings
(Solo)
This is the afterlife, it fills me with desire I'm riding high, I ride into the fire
I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings
4. I've Been To Hell
(Music by Eckert/Sielck; Words by Sielck)
(The almost perfect extinction of the human race during the savior-war has pushed the bio-unit to the edge. In deep depression, driven away from home and in the soli-tude of deep space this poor soul has seen Hell...)
I saw my children from up in the sky Bleeding and sentenced to die Devastation and Termination I've been your angel of death Watching unmoved I've been awaiting your final breath
Children forgive me For I've been so wrong Fate took revenge On all I have done
I've been to Hell I've seen the fires burning Oh, I saw Hell Demons I heard you calling So many years I've been out there alone Broken and scared to the bone Out in the dark Sorrow and grief possessed my heart
Out of control In this deadly machine Innocent victims Are haunting my dreams
I've been to Hell...
Rage Agony Endless pain I'll never be the same
(Solo by Piet)
Castaway Today Light years away from home Blood on my hands I must redeem I will repent
No more repoungance between the machine And my tortured mind Together we're strong - now we are one One of a kind
I've been to Hell...
To Hell I have been to pay for my sin But no more I'll burn - I shall return
Demons of darkness You've been calling me But I'm clear in my mind now And I'm on my way and I am free

During the savior war the sleeper from ancient Atlantis was leading the battle - today he cannot cope with the new world. Isolated and lonely he fades away day by day. But the thread of the Shadow brings him back to life. Once again he shall lead the battle... so the Dragon is rising.]
When I look at tomorrow Who will I be What will I find Seems I'm drowning in sorrow Everything changes My life's redefined
When I look at tomorrow Where will I go What will I see Seems I'm stuck in this hollow Stuck in this heep, this heep of debries
Ohh, there's a pain Deep down inside of me Ohh, I don't know What is my destiny
I've been the Dragon and once I've been strong Look at me what I've become Now I see A Dragon again I must be I must regain what I've lost long ago The fires inside me still glow To the skies The Dragon again will arise
When I look at tomorrow I will find My own peace of mind I shall leave all my sorrow The road to myself I will follow
I'm on my way To meet my destiny I shall overcome The pain deep inside of me
I've been the Dragon...
[Solo Piet]
I killed the demons They haunt me no more I'm loaded and charged to the core Unholy poison was Depraiving my soul Now I am back in control Dragon arise!
(Bio-unit and machine are no longer fighting each other. They are one of a kind, a unique lifeform of man and machine. And so the Savior will return to protect and serve his children...)
Out in the void of the vast Throughout the torrents of time Millenniums I had to outlast Alone in this heart of mine
Built and designed to obey To keep man alive Oh, I have failed Now they struggle to survive
Forever free Free from the split in my mind Now I can see My eyes have been blind The way of the ways - the line of the lines My destiny once and for all Oh Atlantis, I hear your call
I am the one - you are the ones I will protect you - my brothers and sons I have returned - to fight this battle I am the savior - my heart is made Made of metal
A shadow from somewhere beyond Is reaching out its claw Twisting the rays of the sun My children you ain't gonna fall
I'll raise my blade The time for reprisal is here It's not too late The savior is here The ancient machine - a million lifes' dream Protect and serve you all Oh Atlantis, I hear your call
[The battle rages and once again mankind is facing war.]
Infuriated - electrified Grim and relentless they ride Fighters are launching
Onto the stars versing the shadows Armed and ready to strike Starwings engaging The battle is raging
Fires in the sky Prepared to die - no time to sigh Thunder roars Ready to course with no remorse
Firing the guns - explode and reload Firing the guns - relentless and cold Time to strike back Under attack
They're thrusting their way Throughout the rows Again man's in the throws The throws of war We've seen it before
The world's under fire The flames burning higher The Dark must not come to the throne Man will fight With all its might
Dragons of light Infernal ride - defeat the night Starwings engage Ready to course with no remorse
Firing the guns...
Fighting in this dreadful war? what is it all good for In the battle against the Black - there ain't no turning back I am a warrior, still I'm strong I'll raise my blade to carry on - carry on
(The Dark Empire has been defeated. The home world of Shadow is burning in nuclear fire and it is only a question of time for the gate to collapse. Will the crew get back to the gate in time... or will they remain in this dying universe of the Black?)
Thrown into a world Where night is ruling day Where nothing will remain Existence will decay
The hope of despair Deep inside our heart Brought us to the lair The center of the Dark
Strange and unknown hemisphere A mission to fulfill Evil will await us there We're prepared to kill
Deep inside the emptiness What to come, to find Right into the black abyss Leaving all behind
The stars are black beyond the gate A wasteland We must destroy it For man's sake
Once in a while I fade into a dream Skies of blue And meadows of green
Lost in the void Vanished from our entity Lost in the void Cursed to remain in infinity
Out into unknown A road of no return To find the Shadow's throne The Dark ones have to burn
Bold and brave we made our way In eternal night We won't let us led astray We shall return to the light
The stars are black beyond the gate...
Once in a while...
Lost in the void...
(Solo Kai/Piet)
Strange and unknown hemisphere Our mission is fulfilled Evil has been waiting there Ohh, and we have killed Deep inside the emptiness The gate we had to find Out of the black abyss Leaving all behind
Back from the void Back into our entity Back from the void Shadow remain in infinity
