1. One Last Chance
(Music : Grefstad, Olsen / Lyrics : Grefstad).
I was sent here all alone
To defend my masters throne
To fight evil and to clear my name
In a distant past
I was framed by my friends
And sentenced to a life in hell
Bridge :
So now I am here
I will fight for king and freedom
Join me or fear me
The choice is yours to see
Chorus :
Now I got one last chance to be free
Oh forever in this kingdom
I will clear my past to reveal
Oh the enemys treason
I got one last chance
To have all my dreams
Of peace come to real
Release all my wrath
All my pain I no longer feel
Bridge :
Chorus :
Always fear me…
You can`t hear me…
Always fear me, you can`t hear me, don`t stay in my way
Look behind you, I will find you, time to face the truth
Bridge :
Chorus :
2. Beyond The Pharaoh's Curse
(Music : Grefstad, Olsen / Lyrics : Grefstad).
Out in the desert many years ago
Two lovers were living in sin
Worst of all curses the pharaos gift
To be living as dead for eternity
Chorus :
Beware of the magic that dwells in dimensions
Beware of the curses that rules in this world
Beware of the magic that spells in the ancient
Beware of the curses that rules in this world
Lifetimes after the curse is awakened
There is no life to be spared
His only wish is to unite to his true love
Rule the world by her side
Chorus :
The warriors were battling for evil to vanish
To the realms of death
Slaughter of innocence claiming their souls
The curse begins to fall
Chorus :
That rules in this world
In this world
And the curse, the curse begins to fall
It falls, and the curse begins to fall
To fall, and the curse begins to fall
3. A Warriors Path
(Music : Olsen, Grefstad / Lyrics : Grefstad).
Out in the distance, on the long deserted mountains
Young men are fighting for fortune and glory
A tale of the warriors of the long forgotten law
Thirsty of honour and pride
Bridge :
Fighting for a land and fighting for man
To make their own destinys game
Chorus :
Don`t be afraid, don`t lose your faith
Being the winner takes all of your strength
Out on the highlands in the dark they await
The glory of us will not fade
Now they are here, the young man swings his sword
Running on the highlands with his soul
Now the enemys fear will soon take its toll
And the hero, his power will rule
Bridge :
Chorus :
In the shadows, strangers falling
Bloodshed on the battle ground
Last man standing with his anger
Freedom to his people he will crave
Bridge :
Chorus :
4. This Promise I Swear
(Music : Olsen, Larsen / Lyrics : Olsen).
This is dedicated to the love of my life; Rita-Lill.
You cast a spell on me
The first time I ever felt your caress
I turned around to see
Love at first sight my princess
I stood there paralyzed
You appeared like a vision divine to me
My heart had realized
I had to make you mine
Bridge :
You, you left a mark
Too deep in my heart
How could I forget you
You disappeared
I shouldn`t have feared
If our paths would be crossing again
You`re mine `till the end
Chorus :
All my dreams became true
Can`t believe that I`ve finally found you
Without you by my side
Wouldn`t know how to ever get by
All my life I`ll be true
There`s no question my faith is in you
I`ll be there by your side
`cos in me you can truly confide
I had everything I could ask
Except who I really needed
When I laid my eyes on you
The path of my future revealed
Through all our days of sunshine and rain
I`ll be your guide through the joy and pain
I swear this sacred vow
A promise to love you forever
Bridge :
You, you hold the key
You make me see
You`re my hearts desire
Angel of delight
Love of my life
You`re the answer to all of my prayers
This promise I swear
Chorus :
Bridge :
My dark princess of light
I`ll be your knight
Proudly I`ll stand by your side
Shining so bright
Holding you tight
Close `till the day when we die
`till death us unite
Chorus :
5. Land Of Forgotten Dreams (part 1)
(Music : Olsen, Grefstad, Larsen / Lyrics : Grefstad).
Welcome take a hold of my hand
I`ll take you to a far away land
Inside your fantasies
Places beyond reality
Just leave your life behind
And follow the wizards sign
You can see it flashing over the skies
In a place where you will never die
Bridge :
So come follow me
And I`ll let you see
There are things in our dreams
That with faith become real
Chorus :
There is magic in our hearts
There is magic in our dreams
Just let yourself go
Let your powers flow
In the land of forgotten dreams
There are darkness in our hearts
There are darkness in our dreams
Just let yourself go
Let your powers flow
In the land of forgotten dreams
Don`t be afraid to show your fear
Some frightening voices you will hear
But you never again will see
What you call reality
To this dreamland we have come
To make all darkness be undone
Pain and suffering will all end
We are forever here
Bridge :
Chorus :
On the wings of fantasy we will ride
To a land of faith and a land of light
To the land of darkness and hate we have come
We will never go home
You know this place
You`ve seen it before
Take your step and enter the door
To the land of forgotten dreams we have come
We will never go home
Chorus :
Don`t be afraid to go
Into the land of forgotten dreams
Don`t be afraid to go
Into the land of forgotten dreams
Oh, don`t be afraid to go
Into the land of forgotten dreams
Don`be afraid to go
Into the land of forgotten dreams
6. Land Of Forgotten Dreams (part 2)
(Music : Olsen, Larsen, Grefstad / Lyrics : Grefstad).
In this land something dark begins to rise
The evil brings desperation
A quest for our freedom, a quest for our dreams
Fighting for eternity we will win
Bridge :
Glory forever, surrender we`ll never
In this hour for our power
Chorus :
Fight for the power of fantasy
In your heart that will bring dark to fall
It`s the strength of your soul
It`s your destiny`s call
This night decides it all
Open your minds
Open your eyes
Behind the wall of death
There are secrets and lies
We have come to fight
We`ll take it back
In this land of forgotten dreams
We will attack

Chorus :
7. Wear Your Gun To Neverland
(Music : Olsen, Grefstad, Larsen / Lyrics : Olsen).
There`s terror in the middle east
A mighty beast has been unleashed
Doomsday has arrived for the deceivers
In timebomb-temples; loaded prayers
Religions clash - jihad`s declared
That`s the duty call for all believers
Bridge :
Like father, son and the holy ghost
Tell me the one you hate the most
Where do you hide when the walls cave in
Pray to forgive your mortal sin
Chorus :
Wear your gun to neverland
Another soldier, another man
Victim of religions killing hand
Led into the promised land
Like father, son and brother
Dying for the honour
Hate burns in their hearts, their lives are torn apart
Peace is nowhere to be found
No freedom on this sacred ground
Rage runs through their veins, observing family remains
Bridge :
Chorus:
Wear your gun to neverland
Another soldier, another man
Victim of religions killing hand
Led into the promised land
Wear your gun to neverland
Another soldier, another man
Victim of religions killing hand
Buried in the desert sand
Minds are brainwashed from their birth
To serve Gods will down here on earth
Follow the book by every lie
True believers are born to die
Minds are brainwashed from their birth
To serve Gods will down here on earth
Follow the book by every lie
True believers are gonna die
And the heavens cried a crimson rain
In neverland you`ll feel no pain
This war of faith no one will win
Wounds cut deep beyond the skin
Tattoo of terror, scars that never heal
Minds are brainwashed from their birth
Bridge :
Chorus :
8. Will We Be Again
(Music : Larsen, Grefstad / Lyrics : Grefstad).
In my dreams I have seen future and past
Love that is lost, dreams turn to shades
Where are you now, can we be like this once again
Lost in your touch I was little and scared
And I used to feel empty inside
I`m waiting to see eternity with you
In my mind our love is true
Chorus :
Thinking of the sunset we once shared in a dream
I have held your hand all through
And through the darkness and divinest light
Will we be again
I turn out the lights, another day has gone
I wake up to see, if you are here with me
Is it real or are you here in my own fantasy
I wake up early then I turn on the lights
To find that you were never here
Am I going insane, can this be real
Have I lost you for all time
Chorus :
9. From The Cradle To The Brave
(Music : Larsen, Grefstad, Olsen / Lyrics : Grefstad).
Born in a land of corruption and war
Sworn to give peace and a justice for all
Without a fear in his heart he will fight
Memories of slaughter and screams in the night
Bridge :
He gave us hope that we once again will be free
Fight for us all
Chorus :
It is the hero in his heart that will lead us the way
His land he will defend, from eternity `til end
With his sword in hand, he`ll ride across the land
As he rise from the cradle to the brave
Tales of the chosen one that will arive
Born to be leader, he must stay alive
He gathered an army to ride into battle
Out on the highlands, they are the masters
Bridge :
Chorus :
The battle is over, this round is won
Brave man returns to his home, all alone
His wife has been killed and his house burned down
His anger and rage has no end
Bridge :
Chorus :
