1. Break The Spell
2. Driving Hard
3. Don't Take No For An Answer
4. Run For Your Life
5. The Witching Hour
Long ago and far away they met upon a holiday
To thank the gods for nature’s gifts bestowed
Secrets past from mouth to ear
The evil ones would always fear
Unless they could destroy beliefs of old
Stand in a circle and reach to the sky
Far away crusaders met
Calling horsemen to conquest
And plot the death of heathens in their path
They tortured men a hundred ways
Till they’d bow their heads and pray
You closed your mind but can’t forget the past
Stand in a circle and reach to the sky
Don’t be afraid when you’re learning to fly
Stand in a circle and reach to the sky
Don’t be a fool whose been caught in the lie
Be not afraid ‘cuz we all have the power
There’s no need to fear come the witching hour
Oh no
Fly high
Join together hand in hand
The Challenger awaits command
The moon is rising for the world to see
We’ll meet upon a moonlit shore
Make magic real just like before
Take my hand, Oh, won’t you come with me
Don’t be afraid when you’re learning to fly
Laugh at the fools who arent willing to try
Be not afraid ‘cuz we all have the power
There’s no need to fear come the witching hour
6. Screams In The Night
Waiting and waiting until it was done
It shined like a star and burned like the sun
Nowhere to hide and there’s nowhere to run
Trust in one’s lies now damage is done
After the fact there’ll be no turning back
I stayed to fight, now there’s screams in the night
Meet in the canyon and miss not a word
Know what you know – never trust that you heard
Don’t turn your back or the wolves will attack
I stayed to fight, now there’s screams in the night
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can we do?
Meet in the canyon and miss not a word
Know what you know – never trust that you heard
After the fact there’ll be no turning back
I stayed to fight, now there’s screams in the night
Screams in the night
Screams in the night
Night!
7. Bad Attitude
Morning comes much too soon
I’m lying in a heap
My head is pounding, my body’s aching
I want to go back to sleep
Don’t tell me how to live my life
It never worked for you
Cuz if you practiced what you said
You wouldn’t be here too
I’m going crazy, I get excited
Out of my mind and out of control
Don’t you try to tell me what to do or say
I’m right on time – late every day
I got a bad attitude
Stubborn as a mule
Ain’t nobody’s fool
I got a bad attitude
That’s what they say, yeah
I got a bad attitude
I got a dream
One day I’m gonna make it real
Don’t want to work from nine to five
That’s just a losing deal
I’m going crazy, I get excited
Out of my mind and out of control
Don’t you try to tell me what to do or say
I’m right on time – late every day
I got a bad attitude
Stubborn as a mule
Ain’t nobody’s fool
I got a bad attitude
That’s what they say, yeah
I got a bad attitude
Stubborn as a mule
Ain’t nobody’s fool
I got a bad attitude
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
I got a bad, bad, bad, bad, bad attitude
I got a bad, yeah, I got a bad, yeah
8. Exciter (Judas Priest cover)
Racing' cross the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing to the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask
Everything he touches
Fries into a crisp,
Let him get close to you
So you're in his trip,
First you'll smoke and smoulder
Blister up and singe
When ignition hits you
the very soul of your being will cringe.
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please
Who is this man?
Where is he from?
Exciter comes
For everyone.
You'll never see him
But you will taste the fire upon your tongue
He's come to make you snap out
Of the state that you are in
Looks around and make you
See the light again
So much self-indulgence
Results in shattered eyes
Predominant complacency
Leads to beguiling lies.
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask
When he leaps amidst us
With combustive dance
All shall bear the branding
Of his thermal lance,
Cauterising masses
Melting into one
Only when there's order
Will his job be done.
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please
Who is this man?
Where is he from?
Exciter comes
For everyone
You'll never see him
But you will taste the fire upon your tongue
Racing past the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing to the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
9. Breakdown
10. The Black Book
There came a time I’d had all I could take
Life on the edge, my mind about to break
Parents said they’d warned me and my friends said
It’s a shame
Doctor said the stress was playing tricks upon my brain
Doctor he told me I had to get away
Climbed a jet liner, bound for the UK
Resting in the countryside, L.A. far behind
Something deep inside was playing tricks in side my mind
Tricks inside my mind
There in the wall it lay throughout the years
Pages of secrets, the source of all their fears
Hidden reasons, flashing eyes, something isn’t right
What can you do when you’re running out of sight
Hiding from the light
Nightmares waken me at night
Shadows hiding from the night
Solos: Kenny Andrews/Chet Thompson/Kenny Andrews/Chet Thompson
Old parchment pages that crack when opened wide
There in the Black Book the magic came alive
Hidden reasons, flashing eyes, something isn’t right
What can you do when you’re hiding out of sight
Welcoming the night
Shadows waken me at night
See the Black Book come alive
11. Stormrider
Stormrider, high flyer
Live on the edge and hide in the dark
Black liar, cold fire
Wait ‘till the night to escape what you are
Stormrider, shadowhider
Taunting the senses and tempting the soul
Trap the madness, jail the sadness
The future has come and the past has been told
Don’t you think I’m gonna find a way
To break through all your secrets
I grow strong with power of the fire
Liar
Stormrider
Stormrider
Black Liar
In the morning I’ll be calling
Words through the candles, like music on air
Black Liar, face the fire
Tables have turned, it’s your time to beware
Don’t you think I’m gonna find a way
To break through all your secrets
I grow strong with power of the fire
Liar
Stormrider
Stormrider
Black Liar
Solos: Ray Schenck/Alan Barlam

12. Dead And Gone
