1. Intro - Count Raven
2. Inam Naudemina
You have let me down one time too much
And inside I feel my patience burst
Just because you're insecure and weak
Doesn't mean I'll turn the other cheek
Through other's eyes it's yourself you have to see
What you tell me isn't my reality
Never again I'll let you know
No, I will never my feelings show
Time and again you're asking me to try
On broken promises I won't rely
Through other's eyes it's yourself you have to see
What you tell me isn't my reality
You ask that I'm a loser, but
What is there to win ?
The highest price is heaven
Not spending life in sin
You're scared of your own feelings,
Afraid of your own lust
Your life you take for grante
In lies you put your trust
Through other's eyes it's yourself you have to see
What you tell me isn't my reality
You have let me down one time too much
And inside I feel my patience burst
Just because you're insecure and weak
Doesn't mean I'll turn the other cheek
Through other's eyes it's yourself you have to see
What you tell me isn't my reality
3. True Revelation
A new time has come, a new time is here
The one from the pit has risen and soon he'll make us fear
This is the time, yeah this is the time, now listen to this song
Gonna tell you a little story foretold by the prophet John
It started after the war when Israel got their land
It was the new beginning for today's modern man
Foretold two thousand years ago, now we know it's real
They've returned to their land on silverbirds with wings of steel
The year is 1989, the news shocked us today
The Berlin wall has fallen as many germans prayed
Revolution in the eastern block, we can't believe our eyes
It's not the usual situation of the average media lies
True revelation that comes to every nation
True revelation that comes to every nation
The future that is coming up holds new hope for our world
All will say "peace now" and weeping won't be heard
Then a young man comes out of Egypt, he'll unite the Middle-East
A fair politician, our new holy priest
The world will be amazed; "what an incredible man!"
He'll confirm the alliance, all religions will shake hands
There will be one economy and we will all be free
No more creditcards, that he can guarantee
The system that is coming up will really end this hell
A mark on hand or forehead or you can't buy or sell
True revelation that comes to every nation
A new manifestation, the chosen aggrivation
This is the future that you look into
And there is nothing that you can do
His next seven years will really be something else, you know
People will be stunned and say: "way to go!"
Now all is good and everything is fine
At last we will have some peace of mind
Relax and take it easy in your seats
And count in the number of the Beast
True revelation that comes to every nation
It'll shake the foundation, in fact the whole creation
Hear me now, all people, this is what I say:
If your heart loves the lord than you will be o.k.
In this time of knowledge and love for our world
For mother earth we all fight, our voices can be heard
The world will be a better place, east and west shaking hands
In front of a worldwide government we all have to stand
Yes, soon we'll have a fair world and things look better for you
Then along comes the one - you know who
True revelation - the final tribulation
True revelation - Gods Manifestation
4. In the Name of Rock 'n' Roll
Now won't you listen, all you pretty boys
In magazines you look like plastic toys
Superstars of rock, you just pretend
A blasphemy that never seems to end
Ugly bastard, you think you look good
But there are things you never understood
With lipstick and mascara in your hand
Bet you're not even sure you're a man
Now listen
Hairdryer soldiers marching out to war
Can't you see yourself, you're such a bore
Why don't you all just lie down and die?
The world's a mess and you're the reason why
5. Sometimes a Great Nation
The pentagram is the Pentagon sign
CIA organize bloodshed all over the world
Kill the commies before the end of time
All over the world the weeping is heard
You bastards you don't know what you've done
There ain’t nothing that's gonna save you now
Got sex-scandals while people lives on the streets
Christians talks of Heaven and lives of Hell
Moral majority who's majority has no moral
People starving while markets do well
Headline news show people who die
And in the same breath the reporter smiles
God
How can you sleep at night
Your own enemy and biggest fright
Views that holds no truth
Happy I'm not in your shoes
You're even radical the american way
That's why you can't see the light of day
You don't know the world
You're locked out and you won't be heard
You bastards you know what you've done
There ain't nothing that's gonna save you now
6. Within the Garden of Mirrors
Won't you take a ride with me today
Into another world we leave to stay
In secret rendez-vous within your mind
Tomorrow is denied and left behind
"Come with me and I will show you
Something that you never seen before..."
Look into the mirrors and you'll see
Things that are and why they're meant to be
Sugar blossom under silver trees
Won't you take my hand and follow me?
"Come with me and I will show you
Something that you never seen before..."
Rivers made of honey floating by
Underneath a shiny golden sky
Life can be so easy, can't you see?
If you just take my hand and follow me
"Come with me and I will show you
Something that you never seen before..."
7. A Devastating Age
Can't believe there is a future
For the children of today
Corrupted politicians are standing in their way
Don't let the system fool you
All that they want is to rule you
They're blinding their eyes for glory
A brief moment of success
Is all their fame and fortune a substitute for happiness?
Don't let the system fool you
All that they want is to rule you
For once in their lives, why can't they realize?
The answer is love, yeah love!
Don't let the system fool you
Oh Father, whom art in Heaven
Behold this world in need
Of peace and understanding
Instead of hate and greed
Choose the way that's in your heart
Don't let the system fool you
All that they want is to rule you
8. How Can It Be
Where do you think you're going
In your worldly greed and pride?
Say, where do you think you're going now
It's time to turn the tides
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
What do you think you're doing?
You worship demi-gods
Twisting things that's sacred
To use for your own cause
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
You're wicked
No wonder you fill ill
In a sick society
Why don't you change your ways
And live in harmony?
Get rid of all your agony
And let your feelings show
Kindness gains humanity
Let peace and happiness flow, yeah!
Where do you think you're going
In your worldly greed and pride?
Say, where do you think you're going now
You’ve got to turn the tides
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
How can it be that you forgot how to love?
Now God, won't you show them how to love?
9. Social Warfare
I can see our sunshine turn to rain
And I can see happiness turn to pain
Atomic bombs arise in nuclear skies
Oblivion sure won't come as no surprise
I can see our pride turn into shame
As we're drawn in to play their deadly game
A politicians promises and lies
He's financing our funeral with a smile
Bow your head, share my sorrow
You and me, there's no tomorrow
The right to live is now on sale
The price - your life
Social warfare
Now you might think you're not the one to bleed
Better safe than sorry from our deed
Churches give salvation by the pound
Might come in handy when death comes creeping ’round
Bow your head, share my sorrow
For you and me, there's no tomorrow
The right to live is now on sale
The price - your life
Social warfare
