1. Higher Than The Sky
So, now my time has come.
I will be dead and gone
from the earth's face.
It is my destiny,
this time I cannot cannot hide
from this cruel fate.
A never ending memory,
a life before my eyes.
Whatever comes, whatever's been,
my pocket full of lies.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
higher than the sky.
An ordinary flight,
who could imagine this
will be our death cell.
No miracle in sight,
We're diving faster now,
as for as I can tell.
I see the faces passing by,
there's fear inside this eyes.
They all will be my company
we're brothers now for life.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
higher than the sky.
2. The Trooper (Iron Maiden cover)
You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back.
The Bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death.
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall.
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We won't live to fight another day.
We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below.
And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan.
3. Jawbreaker (Judas Priest cover)
Deadly as the viper peering from its coil
The poison there is coming to the boil
Ticking like to time bomb
The fuse is running short
On the verge of snapping if it's caught
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort
Ready to explode Jawbreaker
Crouching in the coner
Wound up as a spring
Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering
Muscles all contorted
Claws dug in the dirt
Every ounce of fibre on alert
4. Forgive But Don't Forget
I was so disappointing,
That all my trust was built on send,
I was against all reason
Eye to eye the innocentce die
Forgive, but don't forget,
Never fall twice,
Forgive, but don't forget,
Straight through the lies
Your speech was full of treason
I had to pay for your sins
I healed my wounds
How I'm stronger than all
Head to toes, experience grows
Forgive, but don't forget,
Never fall twice,
Forgive, but don't forget,
Straight through the lies
5. Tie The Rope
Some kinds of today, live a boring life,
They say, playing deadly gamese,
Risk their life for just a thrill
Now one wants to see, how final is iternity
Show me, I'm alive, I'm waiting for a sign!
Frame their gallows, meet their death
They tie the rope, they hang at last
Open up your eyes,
Life means more than beign alive
Check out what you've got,
The end will be free soon enought
Now one wants to see, how final is iternity
Show me, I'm alive, I'm waiting for a sign!
Frame their gallows, meet their death
They tie the rope, they hang at last
