1. Break the Ice
Why do you stare at me?
It´s hard to please when you´re
feeling ill at ease
Hey let it go
You have feelings inside let them show
Grim craven mind
Timid all the time
Can´t come out of your shell
It´s hell
Shame on you
There are so many things that you could do
Hey can´t you see?
Love is a stream that endlessly flows in me
Grim craven mind
Timid all the time
Can´t come out of your shell
It´s hell
It´s time to break the ice
2. The Hands of Time
The time is running
It´s running so fast that you don´t notice
Years are passing by
And you´re growing older
What happened to all your dreams?
Did they become true at all?
We cannot undo the deeds of the years
They leave you on your own
With all your deepest fears
Don´t look for the future
Don´t live in the past
Just take it day by day ´cause life goes fast
The minutes, the hours
The days and the years will fly so
Live still when you have the time
We cannot undo the deeds of the years
They leave you on your own
With all your deepest fears
Wheel of the time
Turns again tonight
Eternally decides our destiny
Wheel of the time
Turns again tonight
Without reason or rhyme
The hands of time
3. Madness Strikes at Midnight
He´s crawling out from the asylum
Under cover of the night
Insanity of his crazy mind
It´s useless for you now to hide
Walking the streets someone´s in sight
He´s waiting for you in the night
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the alleys
He´s ready to kill tonight
So lock your doors and hide
And pray your god ´cause you´re not alone
Years he spent in the cage
They did not help him at all
Now today with the power of his rage
He´s slaughtering people tonight
Walking the streets someone´s in sight
He´s waiting for you in the night
Hiding in the shadows
Hiding in the alleys
He´s ready to kill tonight
So lock your doors and hide
And pray your god ´cause you´re not alone
Madness strikes at midnight
Madness strikes at night
4. Metal Frenzy
5. Twilight Time
Danger zone
I look into the mirror see my face again
I hear myself preaching
You are getting bold
Growing old
Skin turns cold
You´re to blame
But I will find the way to be myself again
I break the mirror with a noise
Stop preaching me teaching me
leave me be
There´s no way to stop me now
My end is in sight
I reach for the light
Tonight
Twilight time
It´s twilight time
Reaching for a morning light
Twilight time
6. The Hills Have Eyes
Come with me my child
It´s gonna take a little while
To teach you the knowledge
Of the ancient rhyme
Fly with me tonight
Through the cosmic sea
It´s a mystery
From the thirst for life
You will never keep away
Pleasure of one man
Makes another man a prey
Fly with me tonight
Through the cosmic sea
It´s a mystery
The hills have eyes
mind your step you´ll better be wise
Or you never rise again
The hills have eyes
never forgive nor compromise
You fail in vain
7. Out of the Shadows
Out to the light from the mist
From the shadows I go
Facing the new world the odd things
The places unknown
Far away I sail away today
Seeing a new face impression the moment
The thought
Unarmed and naked defendless
My mind is caught
Far away it sails away to stay
Out of the shadows we go
There´s no reason to hide anymore
Out of the shadows we go
Into the new horizon
Towards the new shore we go
8. Lead Us Into the Light
Hey you take a look aroud
Can you feel the change begin?
Soon it will be too late
If you don´t wake up
Outside the winds are bloring
And the people are staring so cold
The look that´s in their eyes
Tells me something´s wrong
Lead us into the light
It´s so strange
We have gone too far
Still knowing what will happen
When we close our eyes
Is this the hell on earth?
And the heaven is out of our sight
Open your eyes and realize
It´s not too late
Lead us into the light
