1. The Time has Come
You took their lives
And you took their sould
To be the king of their land
You brought them misery
Anger and pain
To keep the crown in your hands
But soon they will tear you
Down ti the crowd
The prophecy's coming true
It's death and revenge what they shout
The time has come
To face your destiny
Your life is done
And you're burning for eternity
You promised them heaven
And brought them to hell
Behind your blood shedded walls
Why don't you see
You're under a spell
And madness has taken it's toll
And they won't forgive you
Soon you will die
And noone will help you thru
The time has come
To face your destiny
Your life is done
And you're burning for eternity
2. Only Human
Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling
Cause I gave you my heart and my soul
On and on you keep telling me lies
But what does it take to make you more wise
Take a look at the things we've done
Together we were strong when it all began
When we thought that we could conquer it all
No mountain to high nothing too tall
Why is your fire burning so low
Dud you lose all your fate
Did you forget 'bout the dreams that we had
I can't bear your mistakes and that's driving me mad
Nowhere to go and nowhere to hide
Two hearts as one I'm still willing to fight
So do you believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me a helping hand
Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling
Cause I gave you my heart and my soul
Did you expect me to pay all your dues
Why did you gamble with all we had to lose
Now that we're lost and the sky's closing in
We ruled a game that we couldn't win
Building a castle with our sweat and our blood
Stone after stone and our clothes stained with mud
Nothing to hatd and our forces unite
But we've torn apart and we've killed our light
What about all of the dreams that we had
Why did you trade in the good for the bad
Wasn't it worth to take hold of the flame
You turned away but what was your aim
I still believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me a helping hand
Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling
Cause I gave you my heart and my soul
3. Take My Pain
I can feel the heat
As it burns my skin
Can you hear my creed
I'm paying for my sins
Rainy days and sleepless nights
I've been thru it all
Watch me now as I fall
Can't you hear my call
You have gone away
I could not make you stay
And all that is left is
Pain - release me
Pride - don't tease me
Shame - why don't you take away my pain
The chances that I've dared to take
Couldn't pay their dues
The words I've save the good and the bad
Why did you refuse
Now I'm here all my myself
You couldn't bring me down
Watch me now I'm ten feet tall
There goes out my call
You have gone away
I could not make you stay
And all that is left is
Pain - release me
Pride - don't tease me
Shame - why don't you take away my pain
So tell me why did you leave me
Where was I wrond
Tell me why did you break my heart
What was the reason
Pain - release me
Pride - don't tease me
Shame - why don't you take away my pain
4. Fly to the Rainbow
Heading towards your wildest dreams
But you don't reach the end
You'll be one a never ending journey in this land
Time will tell if it's worth to carry on
It's a race you can't win
A fight with no end
But where are you now
Open your eyes
Take away these lies
Cause you have been alone too long
Caught in your dreams
Fly to the rainbow
Unbreak the darkness around you
Out of the blackbow
Into the light that surrounds you
...Out of the dark into the light
you keep on searching for the answers
you may never find
until you learn to face the truth
you try to leave behind
you won't see until the day you'll learn
to turn around and try the cross
the bridges that you've burned
It's a race you can't win
A fight with no end
But where are you now
Open your eyes
Take away these lies
Cause you have been alone too long
Caught in your dreams
Fly to the rainbow
Unbreak the darkness around you
Out of the blackbow
Into the light that surrounds you
...It's a race you can't win...
5. Hold Your Fire
He was a knight of the king
Who's end was near
He governed a country
Where the people lived in fear
He was following the calls
And tearing down these walls
In search for glory
One stormy nights painful scream
Made him wake up from his dreams
And a mysterious voice
Told him that he had no other choice
Setting out for the land of disgrace
To kill the master and stop the raids
But long before the dawn
He left his town to a place unknown
So time will amake more wise
But he had no diguise to destiny
He gallopped wildly thru the woods
The crown trambling from his horse
He's got the look in his eyes
He will never give up
Cause he's ready to fight
Hold your fire
Keep the flame forever in your heart
Burning desire
Keep the flame in your heart
He rode thru night and day
On his tireless horse
Thru the sun and the rain
Never deviating from his course
And he got to a strange place
Where the air was filled with haze
And it made his flesh creep
Where the trees had no lives
He was following the calls
And tearing down these walls
In search for glory
Two guards in front the door
Torn branches coverin the floor
Now that he was sure
He had found the goals
That he's been searching for
Hold your fire...
6. Four Seasons - Spring
(Instrumental)
(Written by A. Vivaldi)
7. Take Me Away
Somewhere beyond
In there the dark there's a light
Taking my fears
And my dreams out of sight
Gives me the power
And the will to survive this fight
I've travelled for ages
In search of the truth
Thousand of pages
Have paid off their dues
But they can't tell
What I am longing for
And when the dawn of the victory
Is rising with dignity
And then I'll know where to go
Take me away
Into infinity
I just can't stay
Release my tragedy
And I swear
That I'll take more than I can bear
So take me away
Deep down my soul
There's a fire that burns
I won't hesitate
I'll always return
Surrendering all of the duties
That I was chosen for
I've conquered it all
And so what is the price
I bag for deliverance
Now that I'm wise
Why don't you ease my pain
And free my soul
So I'm laying my weapons down
Do I deserve the crown
Couse I'm here to take my place
Take me away...
8. Time
There's a river dark and deep
Holding visions you can't keep
But the water flows too slwo
Where it ends you'll never know
Like a clock that's spinning round
Only ticking is the sound
Like an endless wheel of fortune
And you're losing the ground
And it seems
There's never an end
And all your dreams fade into nowhereland
And you're lost between time
And your life ain't worth a dime
When you're crossing the line
And your lifelight stops to shine
As you walk right thru the border
Between dead or alive
Prisoners from over yonder
Darinf to strive
Like a touch without a soul
And an aim without a goal
So you try to break away
But they force you to stay
And you know
That chances have passed
Water flows
But this moment won't last
And you're lost between time
And your life ain't worth a dime
When you're crossing the line
And your lifelight stops to shine
(...Time will never turn forever)
9. Solfeggietto
(Instrumental)
(Written by J.S. Bach)
10. Sing this Song
Do you believe in honesty
You'll have to find your destiny
There may be times when things go wrong
You're gonna win if you are strong
So many boundaries to break
A million tasks you'll have to take
The road that leads you there is long
But in the end you'll be the one
Just raise your voice and sing
Sing this song
Then you'll be one
Who takes the victory
Take your time
And try to hold the line
Then you will get it all
The years of innocence are gone
You've gotta show where you belong
You know what's wrong and what is right
Just force your goals and hold on tight
There'll be no mountain that's too high
You'll never fail so won't you try
The battle only just begin
And if you win you'll be the one
So let me hear your voice
Sing this song...
11. Witches Dance
Moon is arising the night is to come
Dancing with fire 'til their work is done
Praying to evil ignoring their gods
Lord of the darkness is waiting to come
Pray to the moon
Read from the runes
They have given their souls to the dark
Dancing with fire
Is there only desire
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance
Ruling their nation
Of desperation
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance
Demons and wizards are ruling their thoughts
Whispering spells that they have been tought
A candle is burning for every sin
For every soul they took with a grin
They hide from the sun
'til daylight is gone
And when the night comes you will see the sparks
Dancing with fire
Is there only desire
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance
Ruling their nation
Of desperation
They will keep on
Dancing the witches dance
12. Wings to Fly
Tears on your lips
As you're lying here in my arms
All is gone far away
And there won't be another day
You have made my life worthwhile
But you took me thru this endless trial
Girl, you have tojght me how to see
But I've always thought there's only you and me
I thought you gave me
Your all and all
Cause you where the reason
That made me cry and fall
You gave me wings to fly
Now it's to late to say good bye
And I'll raise my hands
Beggins that you will let this end
Why did you hurt me
Why did you throw away outr love
Couldn't you stand me
Didn't I give you more than enough
Couldn't you find the words
To tell me what was wrong
Now this is the price you pay
That you're nothing more than a shade
I thought you gave me
You're heart and soul
No one can save you now
And there goes out my call
You gave me wings to fly...
13. I Surrender (Rainbow cover)
(Written by Russ Ballard)
