1. I Rule The Ruins
There's a tattooed
symbol underneath my sleeve
An iron glove over a hand of steel
You can't touch me
Don't touch me
All for one and one for me
Listen well and
I'll set you free
You can trust me
For eternity
No promise
Is honest
In a world of change
I rule the ruins
with passion and pain
I rule the ruins
Sinner or saint
Fortune or fate
Alive and well
in this livin' hell
I survived it all,
now it's time to tell
Can you hear me
Do you hear me
Once a tattered soul
on bended knees
With one hand to God,
I felt the devil's breeze
I begged help me
Won't you rescue me
One promise dishonest
And everything will change
CHORUS
There's a tattooed symbol
underneath my sleeve
Iron glove over a hand of steel
I rule the ruins
I rule the ruins
I rule the ruins
With passion and pain
I rule the ruins
Sinner and saint
I rule the ruins
2. Hellbound
Starlight
now is the time
now I will try
to realise my desire
to strike back
Tonight
I´m prepared for this time
to kill deamons of crime
I will fight
fight for my right
for many years
I´ve been under a curse
I swear, I´ve been under a spell
the time is right
I will flee from this hell
oh, everywhere I see
ghosts all around
(I´m hellbound)(I´m hellbound)
Moonlight
I´ll take my weapon
of attack
without fear
of death I wait.
Midnight
I feel ghosts
are all around
but I hold my ground
tu survive
fight, fight, fight
I will fight
fight for my rights
for many years I´ve been
under a curse
I feel, I´ve been under a spell
the time is right
I will flee from this hell
oh, everywhere I see
ghosts all around
I´m hellbound
(I´m spellbound)
3. Only You
Only you.. can possess me
I need your love.. day 'n' night
Only you.. can deliver me
I need your love, I can't deny
And only you.. can deceive me
I love you more than I can say ahoh
And only you.. can complete me
I need your love.. every day!
And only you.. only you can heal me
I need your love to find a way
And only you.. can complete me
I need your love.. every day, every day
And only you.. only you..
From your love I can't stay away - oh no!
Only you.. only you..
I love you more.. every day, every day
And only you.. can complete me
I need your love.. every day, every day
Only you.. only you
From your love I can't stay away!
I can't stay away!
Only you.. only you
I love you more.. every day, every day
I love you more.. every day, every day
Oh I love you more.. every day, every day!
4. Bad Blood
Bad blood, rivers run dry
Thunder comes and the Children cry, bad blood
never can change, no one here to blame
bad blood, older than time
followed me down loom my fathect tribe
bad blood, making me shake
running through my vains, bad blood
Too many questions, so many unanswered times
most times the finger points at me
in my confusion, might slip and cross the line
I'm not to blame for all you see
you can't help me it's in my soul
pray for mercy, nowhere else to go
Repeat chorus
In my confession, I swear and cross my heart
I stand before you what I am
gunpower ready, just waiting for a spark
and those before me understand
please protect me keep me safe
heaven help me save me from this fate
Repeal chorus
Swimming hard and fast
against the time
lost in a flood
of ancient fire
Repeat chorus
5. So Alone Together
I've been looking 'round and this is what I found
there's not one of us
who wants to be somebody else
we would trade places, even trade faces
but when it comes to the heart
we manna stay true to ourselves
There's not one of us like the rest of us
There's no two of us alike
and that will never change
all of us know it and non of us show it
but when it's down to the heart
I guess all of us are the same
All of us cry, all of no try to find someone
whose love will last forever
all of us know, all of us are on our own
it’s up to us, to make ourselves feel better
all of us so alone together
If it were not for you,I don't know what I'd do
and I just hope we go to heaven when we're gone
I've heard it's nice up there
you just sort of walk on air
and the best part's knowing
nobody ever has to walk alone
Repeat chorus
6. Eye On You
I couldn't close my eyes
I stayed up all night
I thought of promises
you gave me for life
your words were racing through my head
"forever together"
I just remembered that you swore
you won't lie
'cause you're in love again
there's nothing to hide
of all the other ones you've had
baby you can't fool me,
I take no prisoners
I have no demands
but baby let me make you understand
I don't know
what you did last night
keep your secrets, maybe I'll keep mine
watch your step
like I told you to
I'm keeping my eye on you
keeping my eye on you
You got the best of me
I think that's alright
but don't you mess with me
you'll never survive
'cause there's a part of you I feel
that drives me crazy
I've learned to trust myself
and nobody else
it's in the way you look at me
I can tell
you try so hard to make me feel good
baby I don't buy it
I take no prisoners
I have no demands
but I don’t want a lover second hand
Repeat Chorus
I take no prisoners
and I don't take a chance
I'd pull the trigger
and you'd understand
Repeat Chorus
7. Metal Tango
My hands are in motion
My wheels do not change
My pain I turn into heat
Inside these flames
When time has no meanin'
Where seasons don't change
I dream with the heart of a thief
And I don't feel no shame
There's an island
In my soul
There's desire
Burnin' deep down, down below
Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango
The sky is cryin'
The tears fall like rain
The wind it gave me the key
To unlock these chains
There's an island
In my soul
There's desire
Burnin' deep down, down below
Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango
There's desire
In my soul
Burnin' deep down, down below
Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango
Don't you know
This is a metal tango
This is a metal tango
Don't you know
This is a metal tango
8. Fall For Me Again
All our friends been acting strange
Sunshine smiles - even when it rains
And they pretend that they don't see
The trouble with you and me
But they know you're about to leave
And even you have played a part
Of someone who is still true at heart
Do you think that I don't know
Your love for me turned cold?
How sad to see you go..
But I'm hoping that you'll fall in love again
And never look back on what might have been
I pray that we will stay the best of friends
And in my heart I hope that you will fall for me again
But don't say there is no way
The things you loved before, haven't changed
Well I could find somebody new
Who wouldn't tear my heart in two
But I'd never get over you - oh no
So I'm hoping that you'll fall in love again
And never look back on what might have been
I pray that we will stay the best of friends
And in my heart I hope that you will fall for me again
Oh in my heart I hope that you will fall for me again
I'm hoping that you'll fall for me again
I hope that you'll fall for me again
Hope that you'll fall for me again
I hope that you'll fall for me again
Hope that you'll fall for me again
I hope that you'll fall for me again
I hope that you'll fall for me again
Hope that you'll fall for me again
9. Fur Immer

Für immer
10. Let's Rock Forever
I remember the day we met
My heart started speeding up
When you walked in the rehearsal room
I couldn't help it fall in love
It wasn't the way you smiled
That blew my breath away oh no
It wasn't anything you said
It was all in the way you played
Chorus:
Let's rock forever
Take me up to heaven with that black guitar
Let's rock forever
Play me that song that'll stir my heart
Let's rock forever
On 'n on 'on
Let's rock forever
Live on (I like the way you do it!)
Hey Baby I'm amplified
Let me tell you what's on my mind
Bend the strings inside my heart
Like the guys in Metallica
Knock me out with all your tricks
'cos I'm in love with your red hot licks
Keep it going in overdrive
Be the power that'll keep me alive
Chorus:
11. All We Are
All we are
All we are, we are
We are all, all we need
All we are
All we are, we are
We are all, all we need
There's beauty in the heart
of the beast
Fear behind the eyes of the thief
I know you know
we're all incomplete
Let's get together
and let's get some relief
CHORUS
Stronger than a mountain of steel
Faster than hell on wheels
We've got we've got all
the power we need
Let's build a playground
on this old battelfield
CHORUS
Now we're stronger
We no longer want you
bringin' us down
We've got the magic
So we're gonna spread the magic
around yeah!
Now we're stronger
We no longer want you pushin' us
CHORUS CHORUS
All we are
We are all, all we need
12. Enough For You
Every time you call
you can't imagine what it's like
I'm getting chills
I hear your voice each time
And every time we talk
I get shivers down my spine
I can't deny
you're always on my mind
I never had this feeling
never so strong before
with every day I want you more
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
oh God I wish I would know
What can take me into your heart
what can I do
would you help me from fulling apart
Is my love enough for you?! Enough for your
Everywhere I go
I wish you would pass me by
I keep on waiting for you anytime
And every night I pray
you would think of me sometimes
hope I could move your heart
your soul your mind...
Would it really matter
if I knew you better
would you know which way to go
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
it's you or no one in this world!
What can take me into your heart
what can I do
would you help me from falling apart
Is my love enough for you, enough for you
I never had this feeling
never so strong before
with every day I want you more
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
oh God, I wish I would know
Repeat chorus
13. The Fortuneteller *
I never got into magic - but the magic got into me.
I'd been tangled up in love, but afraid of being free.
Men... I don't understand them:
They take you for all you got
And leave you howling at the moon
And thinking of... I don't know what...
Yeah I do... thinking of that man...
Is he alone? Is he thinking of me?
Does he still love me?
I needed some answers - deep answers
So there I was, on the side of town where the beggars sleep..
It was late - real late.
But I knew she'd be open - gypsies love the night.
I heard that from a friend who once knew one.
Sure enough, her light was on and her door was cracked;
The smell of incense made the night air cry out in desperation.
But I didn't care, I was looking for revelation,
So I walked in, and made my way through a curtain of beads.
There must have been ten thousand candles - but only one was lit.
I put some money on the table
And she reached for a deck of cards and said: "Sit."
She told me to look in her eyes..
I did... but I also kept my eye on that deck
She gazed at a card... and then she said:
"I can see that you don't really want to know
What your future holds, as you travel down the road:
You'd rather believe that dreams do come true,
Than to find out they can lie to you..."
She picked the money up from the table, and stuffed it in her blouse.
I said: "Wait a minute - I was expecting a little bit more than that"
She said: "What do you want me to do? - Turn myself into a cat?
I could, you know" - and I believed her...
Everything got deadly quiet...
Man, I was scared - but I didn't show it.
Then she broke the silence... "Why are your palms sweating, child?"
God - this woman was good!
I asked her to read my palm - she said:
"All right, but it'll cost you another fifty
And then I'm going to bed - gypsies hate the night...
Gimme your hand - I'm gonna read between the lines."
"I can see that you don't really want to know
What your future holds, as you travel down the road:
You'd rather believe that dreams do come true,
Than to find he might be leaving you."
She said: "I can see that you don't really want to know
What your future holds, as you travel down the road:
You'd rather believe that dreams do come true -
So does the man who's followed you."
14. I Am What I Am
Some chosse to remember
Some choose to forget
Some fall to pieces
when they lose their heads
I choose to get lucky
Don't choose to regret
I'll take my chances
Only i know best
When it all gets down to me
When it all gets down to me
('Cause) l Am,What l Am
and no one's gonna tell me where or when
'CauseI Am,What I Am
and no one's gonna break me down again
I hate to be lonely
I can't pretend
Don't need no phonies
tryin' to be my friends
Don't care about danger
lean take the fall
Everyone’s a stranger
'till just one stands tall
And it all comes down on me
When it all comes down tome
('Cause) I Am, What I Am
and nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
nothin's gonna break me down again
I can hear the devil callin', callin'
I can hear him callin' me
But I don't do nothin'
I don't believe
-SOLO-
When it all comes down to me
When it all gets down to me
('Cause) I Am, What I Am
and nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
nothin's gonna break me down again
nothin's gonna break me down - again
15. East Meets West *
Killing time
Watching signs
I'm waitin'...
See on the other side of town
I've seen the walls come tumblin' down
So I've come here to make you shakin'
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Oh come on, come on, come on, why don't you come on
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
There's a finger on the trigger of a very troubled mind
Working for the love of Satan
There's no blisters on his fingers
There's no blood on his clothes
But I've seen the world that he's been makin'
So get up, get up, get up, get up
Oh come on, come on, come on, why don't you come on
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
Oh
So get up, get up, get up, get up
Oh come on, come on, come on, why
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets..
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets West
There's gonna be one hell of a mess
When East meets.. West!
16. Whenever I Think Of You
I've done a lot of thinking
Since you went away
My mind's made up now
I'm gonna be okay
Yeah, I've made some changes
Got a new job last week
Rented a three room up on Bleekerstreet
I'm taking care of my body & soul
There's just one little thing
Beyond my control
Chorus:
Whenever I think of you
The thoughts blow me away
Whenever I think of you
I still love you to this day
Whenever I think of you
I wanna lose my mind
'cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
I've done some talking
With a friend I just met
He knows that you're
Not easy to forget
And he keeps telling me
He'll help me survive
But every time he's touching me
Your memory comes alive
Chorus:
Whenever I think of you
I wonder if you think of me, too
Oh, yeah, I hope you do
Whenever I think of you
I wonder if you found somebody else
Oh, no, I hope it isn't true
Chorus:
17. Children Of The Night
Some are born to be
Those of us who lead
You hope they are true and fair
The one's who really care
And some are born to fight
Everything that's right
You see them everywhere - oh yeah
Some are born to wealth
Earned by someone else
And when their moment come
They take it and they run
Some are born to be
Lonely refugees
Their hearts must weigh a ton - oh yeah
Children of the night
Their dreams are filled with fright
They close their eyes and pray to god
That help is on the way
Heaven help us all
Be a guiding light
To the children of the night
You know how it feels
Some wounds never heal
Scars of yesterday
Still won't fade away
Well, I believe that we
Could join our hands and be
The ones who set them free - oh, yeah
Children of the night
Their dreams are filled with fright
They close their eyes and pray to god
That help is on the way
Heaven help us all
Be a guiding light
To the children of the night
Children of the night
Their dreams are filled with fright
They close their eyes and pray to god
That help is on the way
Heaven help us all
Be a guiding light
To the children of the night
Some are born to be
Lonely refugees
Their hearts must weigh a ton - oh yeah
18. Burning The Witches
When the day is over
the devil is near
people who know it
are full of fear
When the devil is coming
a virgin will die
a soldier of darkness
will take her life
Burning the witches
the evil cries by
Burning the witches
the demon dies by
Burning the witches
the evil cries by
Burning the witches
the demon dies by fire!
19. Alles Ist Gut
Alles ist gut
es wird schon immer irgendwie weitergehen
Alles ist gut
wir werden nur nicht alle überleben
was wird sein wenn ich jetzt geh
werd ich Dich jemals lebend wiederseh'n
es sieht so aus, als ob’s ein kurzer Weg wär
das alles irgendwie zu Ende geht
ich weiss nur ich will überleben
und werde mich niemals ergeben - Oh no
ich lieb Dich besser jeden Tag
und hoff daß das nicht auch schon alles war
Alles ist gut
ich hänge doch so sehr an diesem Leben
Alles ist gut
ich würde darum alles dafür geben
ich komm nicht drüber weg mitanzusehen
wie dunkle Mächte über Leben gehn
Alles ist gut
vielleicht wird ich’s ja gar nicht mehr erleben
Alles ist gut
was ist denn schon mein kleines Menschenleben
es sieht aus wie ein kurzer Weg
ich hoff das er noch nicht zu Ende geht
so Iieb mich besser jeden Tag
und wenn es geht auch noch danach
Alles wird gut
es wird schon immer irgendwie weitergehen
Alles wird gut
ich hoffe nur ich werd es überleben
Alles ist gut
Alles wird gut
Alles wird gut
vielleicht gibt es ja danach noch ein Leben
Alles wird gut
vielleicht wird ich dich dann ja wiedersehen
wiedersehen ... wiedersehen ...
