1. Exodus

3. Nightmare
4. Rock On, Roll Out
1. Exodus
Fifty thousand people
On the road, hungry
They’ve left ages ago their countryside
Always on the run, fear is on the loose
Their enemies behind them
There was no way to choose
Coming from the mountains, through the desert’s sand
Hundreds of children died, hundreds of foreign lands
And their hopes left behind, oh so sad
Once they were so proud
Now, that’s all dead
Their enemies behind them,
Hate, fear and blood
Once in silver and gold
Now there’s only mud
Coming from the mountains, through the desert’s sand
Hundreds of children died, hundreds of foreign lands
Looking for a new home
Where to start
The dreams they once had,
Are still in their hearts
There’s no much more strength to fight
But still, oh still, still they go ahead
Coming from the mountains, through the desert’s sand
Hundreds of children died, hundreds of foreign lands
Where can it lead this endless road?
Where can it lead this hopeless road?
When will they rise out from the mud?
Where can it lead, where can it lead?
2. Alkateya
You’ve been walking for days, now
All is white and dreadful clean
The coldness touches you
With a blade that cuts your skin
All that’s left now is pain
Fear and solitude
And you feel like you’ve been framed
By that mortal quietude
There’s a spooky howl that freezes you
And you feel like you’re not alone
Then you turn…in front of you
There one lies upon a stone!
-------------- / /----------------
Like the flight of an arrow
As the stroke of a sword
Over dim and distant barrow
In your Soul and forward
Through your bones, through your blood
With a warmth that is cold
Coming always stronger
Strikes you like a thunder
All alone in the snow
White and clean, soon in red
Your heart is about to blow
This will be your last bed
Patiently they have wait
Silently followed you
Now you’re weak and at their mercy
In their eyes victory
Here they come quietly
In each step there’s a treat
There’s no way to escape
You just wait and you sweat
Through the clouds comes the dawn
In the dark shining bright
It’s a new day coming in
But for you endless night!!
3. Nightmare
Many times I have wonder
If my life as any mean
Why should I keep living in a dream?
Do you realise all I have given up for you?
I know that love’s unwise
But I thought your love was true.
That your eyes expressed all the love you felt inside
And that kiss you asked for
Was for love that would still grow.
Many girls I have loved,
Some of them I thought forever
But I have never felt this ever
Feeling free was easy,
Easy was to say goodbye.
Now that you’ve deceived me
I got no wings left to fly…
I got no wings left to fly…
I got no wings left to fly…
4. Rock On, Roll Out
We’re running wild and fast on the highway to success
Full power on the run, we ain’t got time to rest
Freeway we’re riding in takes you up until you blast
Farewell to peaceful days, now we’re out there in the mess!
Out there we’ll burn the fuse, lighting out the wilderness
Like warriors of faith, won’t you take a ride with us?
Full power on the drums with the guitars yelling lust
Of rising thunder roars, the redemption from the rust
Rock On, Roll Out
Until you’re breaking
Rock On, Roll Out
That’s what we’re making
The time as come at last to unlock the cage you live in
The rage that eats your soul is the energy we’re screaming
No one can tame the force that irradiates from you
Just shout it out so loud
So they’ll be as mad as you
A frightful row from the riff raff breaks it all
That gives the power that we need to blow the wall
We’ve taken hold of them
Now we’re on our own at last
Just pump this rock machine with steam of evil quests
Rock On, Roll Out
Until you’re breaking
Rock On, Roll Out
That’s what we’re making
A frightful row from the riff raff breaks it all
That gives the power that we need to blow the wall
We’ve taken hold of them
Now we’re on our own at last
Just pump this rock machine with steam of evil quests
Rock On, Roll Out
Until you’re breaking
Rock On, Roll Out
That’s what we’re making
Rock On, Roll Out
Until you’re breaking
Rock On, Roll Out
That’s what we’re making
