1. The Beginning
2. As a Judgement
3. Gomorrha of the Plains
reflections of a damned
by fiendish symptoms send
sarcastic roars of laughter
from far away it sounded
the rulers of eternal suppression
awaking from their hybernation
plundering and subjugation
bloodtrails... gomorrah of the plains
no worthly penalty
never met their destiny
who'll take the part of catching hands
to get this scabby jacks
the rulers of eternal suppression
awaking from their hybernation
plundering and subjugation
bloodtrails... gomorrah of the plains
reflections of a damned
by fiendish symptoms send
sarcastic roars of laughter
from far away it sounded
the rulers of eternal suppression
awaking from their hybernation
plundering and subjugation
bloodtrails... gomorrah of the plains
4. The Dawn of Dying
hells breaking loose when the daltons rode
terrorizing aims get off the ground
fellows-hip by brotherhood in arms
despising law and order, got remand
their soul has slept in cold eclipse
roused by fighting spirit
following the promised way straight
to the dawn of dying
dancing to the beat of the singing guns
another soul is passing by
at the dawn of dying
the dawn of dying
barrels sight their heads in coffeville
lured into the trap the end is near
at least the dead await the final storm
baptized in fire, bodies to adorn
bullets flow dehumanized
but the purge is done
within the one who told the story
within the truth about the glory
of the dawn of dying
the dawn of dying
forever crucified at the judgement's wooden spine
the final pulse of history
forever buried there where the others lie
old west infinity
perfect genocide is computerized
the laughing face of death around
the warning that nobody realized
will take us to the dawn
the dawn of dying
the dawn of dying
5. My Gun and Me
you pave the way for my robbing leech
there are no bounds and the souls are free
when rivers run backwards and the time stands still
you'll stand in my path than you will see
all I need is just ten foot ground
and no emotion can stop the sound
of aggressions that leave you alone to your blood
evocation of everlasting brotherhood...
I'm tired of your slan-derous mockery
you're just a traitor without daredevilry
I have to face the man who wanna take my life
you know that I'm prepared for the fight
hey ho, the final row
mournful fatal misery
hey ho, the final row
with my gun and me
all I need is just ten foot ground
and no emotion can stop the sound
of aggressions that leave you alone to your blood
evacation of everlasting brotherhood...
you see the tension in my staring eyes
look at my hand that's leap and strike
don't wait to long and stop to breathe
cause heaven awaits that somebody decease
all I need is just ten foot ground
and no emotion can stop the sound
of aggressions that leave you alone to your blood
evocation of everlasting brotherhood...
hey ho, the final row
mournful fatal misery
hey ho, the final row
with my gun and me
we took a little trip just you and me
the lead that put us out of misery
no one will ever hold us in contempt
decision between the quick and the dead...
6. Gone with the Wind
praying to the wretched beasts
maybe they can forgive
the warriors of haunted souls
and common mavericks
sorrows of their inner lifes
hope burned down in flames
a king would trade his finest crown
to get out of their way
hearts will break a thousand times
not even just in dreams
guns will wait a thousand nights
gone with the wind
gone with the wind
dying with their boots on
the shadows of the proud
still sounding in their ears
the mating call of gold
pla-ces of immortality
millions sacred tombs
no medicine will ever heal
that never healing wounds
hearts will break a thousand times
not even just in dreams
guns will wait a thousand nights
gone with the wind
gone with the wind
upon a land where glory lies
the might of suns and moons
eternally under the sky
covered by the truth
when gods would lay their weapons down
and no more war to fight
you'll see em at the long horizon
finally unite
gone with the wind
gone with the wind
7. Rattlesnake Shake
a rattlesnake shake
a rattlesnake shake
pursued like a wounded deer
branded inhumanity
crime controlled
wild instinct to stay alive
the morning that will never die
fire down below
deep in my mind
can't be denied
out of sight
like a rattlesnake shake
a rattlesnake shake
like a rattlesnake shake
a rattlesnake shake
when they set my skin on fire
last resort desire
I can't resist
the man they couldn't catch
is the man they couldn't hang
they'll spiteful kissed
balanced on the edge
inseminated death
skeletons left behind
by a rattlesnake shake
a rattlesnake shake
by a rattlesnake shake
a rattlesnake shake
blessed by the gods
which path will he take
visions of freedom
that never awake
they don't shoot him down
and they don't hang him up
but the rattlesnake's bite
and the sun burning black
a rattlesnake shake...
8. (Ghost) Riders in the Sky
An old cowboy went out on a dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
Plowing through the ragged sky and up a cloudy draw.
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh.
Ghost riders in the sky.
Their brands were still on fire
and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shining
and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
as they thundered through the sky,
For he saw the riders coming hard
and he heard their mournful cry.
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh.
Ghost riders in the sky.
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred
and shirts all soaked with sweat
They're riding hard to catch that head
but they ain't caught them yet,
'cause they've got to ride forever
on that range up in the sky
On horses snorting as they ride
and hear their awful cry
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh.
Ghost riders in the sky.
As the riders loped on by him
he heard one calls his name
If you want to save your soul
from hell riding on your range
Then cowboy change your ways today
or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the devil's herd
across these endless skies
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh.
Ghost riders in the sky.
9. Devil's Horse
riding the devil's horse
I'm riding the devil's horse
the sinister curse has me in it's spell
degraded scalps that adorn me so well
and every time when your death glare meets mine
a phantom is gazing through cynical eyes
bounded so faithful by spiritual beasts
scattering splendors of worshipping deeds
no mercy will pump out the damned tears in me
predominant signs bring just tragedy
to the perdition - that keeps me alive
riding the devil's horse
I'm riding the devil's horse
the devil's horse
it whispers to me with languishing lips
the evil is hunger and the fire I breathe
I know that there're two ways for me to walk on
within my rage under final command
and power was given to me by the sword
the day of my wrath who'll be able to stand
nobody surviving the passage of blood
and hell follows me when I'm rising up
so follow my trace - to the destiny
riding the devil's horse
I'm riding the devil's horse...
the devil's horse
10. Jumpin' Down the Running Train
I dreamt I was in heaven
among the angel's gold
feeded by a pleasant hand
that dealt the playing cards
no sorts of bones whatever
creeping on the ground
'cause bonds of faith may always sever
but my gun is still around
now I just found a game
like a mortal upper story
play the final showdown scene
'til you are gone to glory
both friends and foes agree
accused of breaking laws
there is no money in this secret box
the fodder to my purse
maybe I am wrong
maybe I am right
maybe I'm not strong enough
maybe I will die
like a tawny snake
in a torrid clime
the twilight
'til the dawn of time
maybe I disclaim my honour
maybe I will jumping down the running train -
jumping down the running train
- jumping down the running train
the ballade of Jesse James
there was a little lady
she was twined in golden hair
don't want to take her to my heart
'cause dollars doesn't smell
she felt down on her knees
I cant forget the sound
'cause bonds of faith may always sever
but my gun is still around
from the deepground of the ocean
to the top of mountains high
where love threw up the sponge
fear got the upper hand
an insidious bullet from behind
the coffin let me learn
there's no money in this secret box
just fodder to the worms
maybe...
11. Dodge City
threatening predominant thunder growls
sending felonious packs of hounds
dust covered the peace from bad to the worse
the silly red breed was about to burst
a place where the angels got prostitudes
and gods are precursors of breaking rules
casting a gloom over those who believe
that beasts could be changed into human beings in dodge city
that beasts could be changed into human beings in dodge city
denaturalized in a sea full of blood
no security to find in this crimson mud
dishonouered town too tough to die
like a leaf that is caught in the endless tide
a place where the angels got prostitudes
and gods are precursors of breaking rules
casting a gloom over those who believe
that beasts could be changed into human beings in dodge city
that beasts could be changed into human beings in dodge city
12. Desperados
nowhere to run
and nowhere to hide
sing the song
you better keep inside
with loaded guns
on holy ground
like a deadly punch
desperados in town
nowhere to run
and nowhere to hide
don't try to be strong
don't even try to fight
for when we'll be gone
you might still be around
and you sing this song
'cause desperados in town
showdown has come
with deadly sound
it's a quick draw game
desperados in town
nowhere to run
and nowhere to hide...
13. The End
14. Oriental Saloon

the loyal and the proud unite
enjoy before you leave the town
and don't forget to turn around
make your path straight to the moon
oriental saloon
