1. The Gate
2. In Control
You think you have the right suspicion
each move you make is in control
you won�t believe it�s like a vision
what do you feel? Is this the price you�ll pay?
Some say they heal, they guide your steps
in other ways
CHORUS:
In Control
See that it�s real
In Control
It�s a dirty nightmare
In Control
The world is changing face and body
corrupted minds are gaining ground
if you won�t change, they�ll have the glory
Try to beware from now to eternity
wake up and watch those cold blue eyes and died
blond hair
You�re waiting for the last command
to destroy your promised land
the mighty will be satisfied
when you�ve killed your fellows right
don�t make no stranger of body and soul
feel all the danger, you�re under control
breakin� the grip, makes no difference at all
fight for the rights of all colors you call
3. Turn It Down
We�re gonna rock you if your metal hunger burns
drive into your heads with a 100.000 turns
if you are made for metal, so raise your fist and yell
Can�t you hear, it sounds so clear
in my ears there�s a voice
WE�LL NEVER GIVE IT UP!
Come here and stay, we�ll blow the night away
there�s magic in the air
you�re strong enough, you�ve got it, don�t be tough
and you scream
CHORUS:
TURN IT DOWN
bang your head
TURN IT DOWN
straight ahead
You love that power and you know it�s no disgrace
metal is the best we�ve invented for the human race
you�re rising up to heaven and never come back to
the ground
We wanna hear your calling
when our sound fills the air
and when the night is falling
we are together, forever
we are together and we
TURN IT DOWN
4. Surrender
Face to face, an eye for an eye
guess I�m leaving this town forever
want to break free from all those old lies
we�re living too long together
Just can�t stand it or face more of the same
I�ve got the choice to stay or to leave
watching our dreams go down the drain
saying goodbye to what I believed
defences were down, you�re willing to go anywhere
but now the future is over, say you never cared
CHORUS:
I SURRENDER
never coming back
I SURRENDER
never looking back
I�m not down, I�m breaking these chains
taking some time to watch the sunrise
life will never be the same again
now I know it�s been a matter of lies
It�s taking me high
I�m leaving this town, yes I�m free now,
I�m leaving, I�m watching the sky
5. Hot Fever
Drivin� down the avenue
and you hear that downtown melody
standing in that city heat
and you know that�s your destiny
Feel the sound, watch the blood red lights
now your veins feel power, and you�re hypnotized
CHORUS:
HOT FEVER
you�ve got that downtown love
HOT FEVER
it�s burning inside out
HOT FEVER
Sound is firing up your blood
and your body makes a powerdive
you believe in metal gods
if you feel that mental overdive
for your mind it�s a losing game
and your eyes are hot like a burning flame
6. Tyrants
When the fire is over
and you�re down on the ground
you are searching the daylight
but it just can�t be found
what�s the sense of this madness
you don�t know those rules
war is only a game for the ruling fools
come and fight it, you�ve got to feel
hard as a rock, cold as the steel
don�t kill this world, it�s the only place
to live in harmony for the human race
CHORUS:
HUNTING THE TYRANTS
HUNTING THE TYRANTS
HUNTING THE TYRANTS
HUNTING THE TYRANTS
we need no sirens
again and again we have to fight for our love
We don�t need no protection
for the future at all
no atomic reation
for our lives to fall
just believe in tomorrow
put your love in the air
please don�t drive us to sorrow
if you wanna be fair
7. Path Of Glory
I tell a story of a man, his name is IRON SWORD
he wants to safe the ruined land,
he�s a courageous lord
he�s on his way, when he will lose his life he cannot say
he�s escorted by a crowd of men, ten warriors of steel
they�re breaking through the ice and wind, like a burning wheel
they wanna fight, ride on a flash of light
CHORUS:
They sit all alone and they can watch the iron tower
they all strive for fame and they are riding on the
PATH OF GLORY
Now they attack the fortress and they�re looking �round in fright
no king is sitting on the throne, a beast they have to fight
they wanna go, knowing that they�re standing all alone
The evil force is on attack, they hear the devil�s bell
there is no way to turn back, it�s coming out of hell
taking their minds, hell and fire makes them blind
CHORUS:
They sit all alone and they can feel the flash and thunder
no way to escape, they have to cry
From the back there comes a light
the holy sword is entering the fight
iron fist breaks the evil�s soul
iron sword is leading on the
PATH OF GLORY
8. Shadows
As you were down again, you told me all those lies
and you know I�ve to pray
you�re life is still a game, I waited for the price
and I know I�ve to pay
You�ve been a runaway, feeling as cold as ice
asked me if you could stay, I felt like been hypnotized
heaven will know, know the reason why
you never showed that sorrow in your eyes
You told me those lies that you�d make a turn
but I could see in your eyes that you never would learn
CHORUS:
IN THE SHADOW, shadow of your life
IN THE SHADOW, you could not deny
when you�re drunk you were lost, and you�re having no way
something is even to say
IN THE SHADOW
of your life
Now that you�ve gone away I look at the morning sun
all night long I move and stray thinking of things we�ve done
heaven will know, know the reason why
you had to go on broken wings up the sky
9. This Flight Tonight (Nazareth cover)
Starbright
Look out
The left. The captain said
The lights down there
That's where you'll land
Saw a falling star burnin'
High above the
Las Vegas sand
It wasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down south between the trailer
Not the early one
That you wish upon
Not the northern one
That guides in the sailors
You've got that touch so gentle and sweet
But you've got that look so critical
Can't talk to you babe
You know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that
Love is just mythical
Up there's a heaven - down there's a town
Blackness everywhere and
Little lights shine
Blackness, blackness dragging me down
Come on light a candle
In this heart of mine
Starbright, starbright
You've got the loving that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on
This flight tonight
Solo
I'm drinking sweet champange
Got the headphones up high
Can't numb you - can't drum you
Out of my mind
They're singing
"Goodbye baby, baby bye bye
Uhhh, love is blind!";
Up go the flaps - down go the wheels
Hope you got your heat turned on baby
Hope they finaly fixed your atomobile
Hope it's better
When we meet again babe
Starbright, starbright...
You've got the loving that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on
This flight tonight
Should not have got on
This flight tonight
Solo
Starbright, starbright...
You've got the loving that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on
This flight tonight
Should not have got on
This flight tonight
Solo
10. Cry It Out (bonus)
Frontpage news again and you're thinking of your deeds
D' you have all the things that a real good man needs?
They don't like your hair, they couldn't realize
You're a dreamer too, what a big surprise
Chorus
CRY IT OUT
Listen to your tears
CRY IT OUT
Live without a fear
You don't understand and your head is turning round
They don't wear a crown and you don't have to bow down
You haven't been at home for such a long, long time
To stand one's ground in all these years, is it a crime?
Don't be a fool at all if you're waiting for a call
Oh, breaking the rules and save the day
I believe in you going your way.
