1. Awakening Of The Beast
2. Dragon's Flight
Riding on the wind on wings as hard as steel
The thunderstorm sounds leave no way to conceal
Breaking through the waves a reversed waterfall
The fire breath of hell condense to a ball
[Bridge]
No one who dares
To stand and fight
Paralized by the
Look in their eyes
Lords of the realms
Of the middleage
Born to be kings
To rule the land
Darkness cloakes the land steels all light of day
The sunlight reveals in these days of decay
Sinister yellow clouds - sulphur in the air
Mankind bow their heads crying in despair
Down from the hills
Into the towns
Born to kill
To destroy all around
The mighty kings
Fear them and hide
On inflamed wings
They ride through the night
[Chorus]
Fly on
Mighty winds of the west
Leave no trace of your existence
Leave the land in waste
Reign on
With the smoke in your eyes
Times will change to wrong from right
On your wicked flight
The dragons flight
3. Legions Of Metal
Visions of the moment in my bloodred eyes
No time to repent - the scars on my face
It's waiting for you
It's waiting for me
Beyond the black
Lies the thing that should not be
...Should not be
Up from the ashes
We shall arise
Out of the underground
Into the night
United forces
Hearts filled with pride
Legions of metal
Forever ride
Raindrops on black leather
The glittering steel
Through the smoke we spot the enemy
The guns are loaded
Swords sharpened twice
Riding down the road
Armed and ready to fight
...to fight
[Chorus]
Together we ride
Through storm an rain
United we strike
4. Chalice Of Steel
Before all time, the twilight of creation
A quest for power had begun
A cup of steel, forged in the master's furnace
With secret knowledge of the one.
The ancient conflict of dark against the light
Eternal battle the never ending fight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Self fullfilling prophecy leader of the dammed
Before the gods you'll kneel
Searching for the sacred cup, to wield its magic powers
The demons wrath you'll feel...
CHALICE OF STEEL
A secret lodge the keepers of the chalice
Masters of war and destiny
Forbidden fortress, beyond unholy wastelands
Through all time in secrecy.
The demons servants searching for the keep
The powers of the chalice, for evil use they seek.
The spell has been broken, evil unleashed
Unchained the warriors of hell
Merciless onslaught riders of doom
Attacking the old citadel.
Converging armies ultimate conflict
The cut of all time is at hand
All must arise to heed to the call
Obey the Final Command...
The ancient conflict of the dark against the light
Eternal battle the never ending fight.
5. Wheels Of Eternity
Five thousand years ago
On the banks of the nile
A sacred place
The birth of a child
The rites of the ancient
In the temples of seth
Priest of the underworld
Casting the spells
The wrath of the gods
The curse of Osiris - forever damned
Initiation secrets of the old
Invocation evil to unfold
Wheels of eternity
Forever grind
The sign of the ancient
Through space and time
On through the centuries
He walked the earth
Lived in the cities
Of mankind
Fortells the future
Turns lead into gold
Constructs machines
That sails the skies
In the sign of the pentagram
By the powers of night - forever damned
Initiation secrets of the old
Invocation evil to unfold
6. Desecrate
Trail of the afterlife to the land of the dead
Where souls captured in another maze of dread
They'll all meet in here behind the final gate
Unforgiven - in hate
Lost in a world of grey between life and death
Searchin' for the exit the only chance they have
Across the river step into the hallway
Damnation - the price to pay
The pain goes on
The cries cuts in
Screams of vengeance howl
The torture never goes
By the sign of the cross
And all symbols of hate
DESECRATE
False prophets always claimed the end of the world
But the few who know they'll never say a word
Unholy crucible - merge in something new
Beware the wicked brew
Gods of wrath return - desecrated souls of hell
Terrorised victims in fear they yell
Raping their minds brings them to despair
A final scream in the air
Out of the shadows
Marching new creatures
The will to survive
That keeps them alive
The evil lives on
The good to destroy
They're driven by hate
And all that they preach...(is to) desecrate
[Chorus]
7. Dark Tale
8. Casting Shadows
Sitting in a dark room
By flickering candle light
When a black cat starts to moan
Hear the creatures of the night
By the bursting crystal ball
The vision turns to dust
Echoes from the stone walls
And shatters the dusk
Calling out
To the mysteries
Speaking words
Of darkness...now
Open mind - Magic light
Casting shadows
Casting shadows
Truth not true - Live no life
Ancient words
Ancient words
Heaven and hell - Read the spell
Casting shadows
Casting shadows
Rise from the ashes a blaze...in the shadows
The pages turn and turn
I hear footsteps down the hall
The pages start to burn
My secret name they call
Revelation in their voices
No place for disgrace
Words from my lips increase
The tear in time and space
9. Burn At The Stake
In the forest at the hill
Something wicked has been found
Rumors of a witches skill
A story goes around
"Go and get her!" they yell
As the fear turns to hate
"We'll take that bitch to hell
An end her vicious fate"
Through the dawn
By the light of the full moons eyes
Now all is gone
Like the ashes blown by the wind
Burn!
Burn at the stake
Burn!
For heaven's sake
In the early morning light
She was taken into town
The judge proclaims the sentence
"To die on holy ground"
The wine runs like blood
On this glorious bright day
The hot tar and dry wood
Her poor soul flies away
10. Journey Home
The empty room narrows
Swallows the light of the day
A cold wind whispers
Tells me I have to repay my time
Ashes in my clothes
Glittering shadows of grey
The soul burns bridges
The end of it's prosperity
Feed my head
With bitter lies and lethargy
Time to cure
My sins reveal in pouring rain
The pain - No place to hide
The fear inside that controls my mind
Journey Home - Run like the wind
Reborn again - Escape the blackened fate
The constant reminder
Scars turning red in the heat
The weight of rememberance
Can't crush the eternal weed inside
The blood on my face
The sweetest dry liqour - revenge!
Run down to the river
Trickles away in the sand
Venomous lies -Terror device
Rebellion
Killing my mind - No peace to find
Rebellion
Being tossed and turned
So far I can recall
My memories are banned
And locked behind a wall
11. A.D. 2000
The evolution has reached the end
Unknown demons
Forgotten - Now close at hand
Pyromania on the powder hill
The betrayed souls
Again they're ready to kill
The rage for knowledge
All science at the end
The quest for power
But nothing to defend
Now we face the final dawn
The bloodred sky falls down
It's the last breath that you take
Apocalyptic dawn
The desillusion the bitterness
Increasing clouds
Thunder roars - Lightning strikes
Poisoned air and acid rain
Gods of war
Screaming their commands...
12. Violence And Force
[Exciter cover]
Living in fear in the ditches at the front
Fighting for my life never knowing what's to come
Shell shock, heart attack eats me to the bone
Through the darkest Hell this battle rages on & on
Enemy attack walls of fire burn the sky
Fighting with the rats of war, preparing to die
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence & Force
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence & Force
Armed with the weapons the power and the might
Opening fire defacing all in sight
Nuclear disaster forget about the war
A touch of switch no man will exist no more
Enemy attack walls of fire burn the sky
Fighting with the rats of war, preparing to die
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence & Force
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence & Force
Life on the stage is like the bloody crypts of war
Mind ripping metal shouting out for more
Fire bombs & smoke white beamsfrom the lights
The scene of a battle burning in the night
Leave behind the weak we must take the strong in hand
Together are the wicked violent forces in command
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence & Force
Violence & Force
Taken by Violence &
Force!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
