1. Coming Home
Lost in the dark milleniums ago
Where is the place where's the place called home
On fire they rode to flee from the fall
Their future was doomed they've foreseen it all
Mythical world of the ancient empire
secret and hidden
but some day we shall return
Ancient calls from anywhere in time
we have to follow the sign
Distant voices - sources unknown
Where to they lead us
Where will we go
On the scent for the lost Coming home
[Riff Solo: Piet]
Chasing a shadow in stardust and haze
Where will we find traces of our race
The engines are roaring
we're leaving ground once more
is it for real - will we fail
like so often before
Ancient calls from somewhere in time
we have to follow the sign
Distant voices - sources unknown
Where to they lead us
Where will we go
On the scent for the lost
Coming home
[Main Solo: Piet/Kai/Piet/Kai/both]
Mythical world of the ancient empire
is it for real - will we fail
like so often before
Ancient calls from somewhere
Star of the old
guide us - give us hope
Star ...
2. Starborn
[Music and lyrics by P. Sielck]
[Lead and backing vocals by Piet]
[Choir vocals by Jan and Piet]
Bound to the stars, bound to a land
Unspoiled and virgin
This journey has to end
Out in the cold, lonely we feel
Outcast and homeless
In coffins made of steel
Far beyond - so far beyond a strange horizon
History - the past is lost but we will live on
Still on the quest
Forever we're riding
No place to rest
In deep space we're gliding
Starborn children - their destiny
Starborn out in the cold - their sanctuary
Faster than light we cruise the unknown
Into the dark we've been thrown
Starborn and lost in the cold
Where can we go, where will we find
Shelter and silence
From all we've left behind
So many times we thought we had it all
But we had to follow
The stars and their call
Memories - of all we've left will fade away
Atlantis will - be lost in war and will decay
Goddess of fate
Forever we're riding
Light up the shade
In deep space we're gliding
Starborn children - their destiny
[Solo: Piet]
Goddess of fate
Forever we're riding
Light up the shade
In deep space we're gliding
Starborn children - their destiny
2. Forces of Rage
Under the ice we hide from your stare
buried in grief and despair
We're the derbies, the scattered remains,
leaves in the storm who is lashing the world
Destiny calls, extinction of man
will it all happen again
But yet we're alive, unbroken we stand
to banish the conqueror who's taken the land
We'll be a thorn in your unhuman flesh
There'll be a time for retortion
We'll break the fetters, we'll never give in
although it seems our end will begin
Forces united - forces arise
Legions of iron descent from the skies
Dark knight - you'll never defeat
The immortal spirit of freedom
Savior - watch out beware
We will engage
The forces of rage
Starbirds are gliding on winds of decay
merciless hunting the pray
Infernal machine, the hatchet of war
sharp as a razor will cut back the claw
We'll be the virus - a deadly disease
the fever is burning inside you
To bring you to fail is the ultimate aim
We'll rise from the ashes again and again
Forces united - forces arise
Legions of iron descent from the skies
Free - at least for a moment in time
Years - how many years have gone by
In fury and wrath we're looking above
Forging the sword, the blade of reprisal
Leaders of man let's ride out again
From fire and ice a blazing star will arise
[Solo: Piet]
We'll be a thorn in your unhuman flesh
Forces united - forces arise
3. Atlantis Falling (live)
A flash of destruction
like a blaze cut through the night
The heavens on fire
they were glowing in unholy light
Your sudden assault
broke all the dreams of unification
The hunger for power
it's the lash of civilisation
despaired and in pain - all seems so in vain
Fires in the sky
defenceless we stand tonight we will die
Shadows of the end
the Kingdom will fall life it will finally descend
percieve what you've done and repent
Careless we thought
all you do is to bark at the moon
But in the grip of fury
you have conjured
the dawning of doom
is this our fate - wiped out by your hate
Fires in the sky
defenceless we stand tonight we will die
Shadows of the end
the Empire will fall life it will finally descend
Goddess of the seas let us rest in peace
In her cold embrace we will find our graves
Solo Piet - Solo Kai
Silence will set in - will existance begin - again
Fires in the sky
helpless we stand
defenceless we'll die
Shadows of the end
the Kingdom will fall life will descend
Fires in the sky
helpless we stand defenceless we'll die
Shadows of the end
Atlantis will fall life it will finally descend
descend... for evermore
4. The Rage (Judas Priest cover)
From a fire ball we came
Cross sea and mountain
We were drinking beauty with our eyes
We were given all
To make our own
Let us be left alone
Lay the tasks and pay the price
Everything suffice
Crashed and bolted all we craved
After every whim
What a state we're in
Is pain better than the grave?
Well we talk with other men
We see red and then
Deep inside our blood begins to boil
Like a tiger in the cage
We begin to shake with rage
