1. The Gate
2. Freelance Man
You are a nothing and deceased
You ain't alive at all
Don't try to be sensible
I'll bang your head on the wall
I got no time to be locked in
I'm a dangerous son
You're always second
I'm the number one
Hail the battle
Take a bow
Monumental
Gonna stand my ground
I'm gonna stand my ground
'cause I'm a freelance man
I ain't walking I ain't talking tonight
Heart of steel - twisted feel - I'm no easy ride
You will never ever lock me up tight
'cause I'm a freelance man
And I'm breaking and I'm taking tonight
No mistake - don't dictate - I'm no easy ride
Don't you never ever lock me up tight
I'm always doing what I lease
I'm always having a ball
You make me contemptible
I'll bury you in a hole
It's better you to be locked in
I'll be a terrible guard
You'll never matter
I'm still the number one
Hail the battle, ...
'cause I'm a freelance man, ...
Turn on your brain before you talk
It was no secret what I am
You rue the day - you've been done over
I'm just a freelance man
Hail the battle, ...
'cause I'm a freelance man, ...
3. Way of Life
I've been away from home
Was outta sight
No other change has come
Who let the boredom in
We got our rockin' rights
We'll overcome
The mirror never lies
We'll show 'em how it's done
We always dress in black
To be unkind
We always dress in black
With you in mind
It's the way of life we live - you know where we are coming from
It's the way of life we live in - and we're not wrong
'cause it's the way of life we live - you know where we are coming from
It's the way of life we live in - we are the strong
We never will deceive
Take no double-talk
And all the fat cats bull
Don't like the way we walk
They spit behind our backs
Unwelcomed class
But it's way down deep
They wanna be like us
We always dress in black, ...
It's the way of life we live, ...
Time is ticking by
For you life is such a lie
You clipped your wings to fly
You could have had it all - BUT!
Work nine to five
Finish fifty-five
Only born to die
You ever been alive?
We always dress in black, ...
It's the way of life we live, ...
4. No Limits
One life - never been a riddle
Black nights - live it to the max
It's all extremely done
No way - to colonise the middle
Ride hard - desperadoes at your back
Under a blood red sun
In this world - up to us
We stand or we fall - yeah
We got no limits - no hideaway
We got no limits - live today
We got no limits - the way to stay
We got no limits - no limits all the way
Gear up - life is what we make it
Rock hard - shaft it to the top
We've only just begun
Sun's up - we're gonna do some shakin'
Break out - we give it all we got
Make way 'cause here we come
In this world we decide
To answer the call - yeah
We got no limits, ...
Power 'n' riches 'n' rank
Mean nothing at all
Render the game to the en
Once and for all - once and for all - yeah
We got no limits, ...
We got no limits - no hideaway
We got no limits - live today
We got no limits - the way to stay
We got no limits
Ev'rybody live the life
5. With A Vengeance
Now I'm back with a vengeance
Didn't want to stay - to stay away from you
No illegal fun - you had me hypnotised
Cheap and on the run - a bad reputation
Now the time has come - to take the blame away
To fly the clouds so high
And touch the sun
Into a desperate sky
And the nightmare's begun
Now I'm back with a vengeance
I am back with a vengeance
Never been my style - to hide away from you
Like a wayward child - you tried to paralyse
And to cage my heart - bad recommendation
Now the fear has gone - there's zero left to say
To fly the clouds so high
And touch the sun
Into a desperate sky
Wait for the terror to come
Now I'm back with a vengeance
I am back with a vengeance
To fly the clouds so high
And touch the sun
Into a desperate sky
So the horror has won
Now I'm back with a vengeance
I am back with a vengeance, ...
6. One Step to Fate
Now it's time to break the spell
Future's written down
Is it tears or happiness
What's your fate - time will tell
Is it left or is it right
Elect the road you'll take
Will you see the other side
Take a ride - take a ride to see
There's no excuses if it's badness
So many ways it can go wrong
And if it happens to be gladness
Then you can say that you have won
That you have won
One step to fate - why don't you follow me
One step to fate - I know it's near
One step to fate - no power's over me
One step to fate - it only takes one step to fate
The time is now it's make or break
The turning of the tide
This is the way it has to be
Live your life to the edge
Could be bad you know it might
The mission's under way
Now you've reached the other side
Open up - open up your eyes
No more excuses if it's badness
So many ways that have gone wrong
Not always happens to be gladness
Which ever way you know you've won
You know you've won
One step to fate, ...
With a touch of sadness
Dreams can fade away
Laughter is my passion
Never cried away
One step to fate, ...
7. Backstreet Loner
I lit another cigarette
She did a little pirouette
No friend of mine - a dollar's fine
A cruel world - when you cross this line
The masquerade is over
The mask - it fades away
Like a backstreet loner
No need to be afraid
In Johnny Nofinger's bar
I travelled so far
I've been to all those places
Just a shot on the bar
A cheap cigar
And all the dead-eyed faces
Hold down the fever
Don't you cross the line
Hold down the fever
Stop yourself in time
Never step on the ride
Just take my advice
I've suffered all the seasons
Feel it coming again
I paid the price
There's no rhyme - no reason
Hold down the fever, ...
When masquerades are over
The show will fade away
You'll be a backstreet loner
You better be afraid
Hold down the fever, ...
8. Raise the Crown
So tonight is something
Something you can take
Leave behind your sorrows
Give yourself a break
It's up to you - you're getting
Pleasure outta strife
You're gonna be somebody
So get yourself alive
So now it's one for all
And all for one
We run on overload
So hold on tight
There's a whole lotta runnin' - when we own this town
And a whole lotta shoutin' - when we raise the crown
There's a whole lotta runnin' - be it day or night
So beware of the power - when it burns your eyes
We are the one and only
The only are insane
Mentalised and tuned in
Never be the same
Paralytic decompression
Needles in the bones
It's the one obsession
Going on and on
So now it's one for all, ...
There's a whole lotta runnin', ...
Another crazy town - a crazy life
We bleed our souls for you - run the rivers dry
We quake the houses down - be it dark or light
We sacrifice the day - electrify the night
So now it's one for all, ...
There's a whole lotta runnin', ...
9. Manhunt
We're straining at the leash
We smell the human meat
The only way for us to go
The order of the pack
Command is kill - attack
Obey the master's law
Bad temper rules our minds
The hunt is on this time
We can't wait
No way to stay alive
The prey is finalised
It's total genocide
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt
We train our deadly pride
No way for man to hide
We're always aiming for your neck
This is your final day
Just believe and pray
We're feasting on your eyes
Bad temper rules our minds, ...
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt - this ain't no suicide
We're on the manhunt, ...
What is the victim's face - not us who's wrong
The terror of the chase - can't be undone
We turned the game around - not us who's wrong
You made us go to ground - can't be undone
We're on the manhunt, ...
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt - this ain't no suicide
We're on the manhunt - we keep on pushing
We're on the manhunt - try to hide - no way to run
10. Rated X
Blazing steel on the horizon
In the desert
Forces like the ultimate Poseidon
The arrival
Although it burns your eyes
The government denies
Rated X
Not allowed to know
It's rated X
No files to show
The men in power call you liars
It's suppression
They say you never saw it so forget it
All oppression
they're passing on the lies
The bunkers full of files
Rated X
You better not care
It's rated X
The facts are somewhere out there
Can we ever trust each other
To believe in
They keep the information under cover
It's not needed
The legacy is born
They classify us all
Rated X
Not allowed to know
It's rated X
No files to show
Rated X
You better not care
It's rated X
The facts are somewhere out here
Rated X
It's rated X
11. Lovemachine

Just call 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - one-day lover
If you need - need a two-days lover
Just call 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - two-days lover

'cause the love - the love I will give you
Is sweeter than anything else

The best you can get - fifty miles around
I'm the lovemachine in town
The best you can get - fifty miles around

12. I'm A Rebel
They say I won't make it to the top of the hill
Won't take the fruit of a tree
And ev'rybody says I'm out for the kill
They're all laughing at me
They're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel
And they're all laughing at me
They say I'm a danger to the public and all
I only wish they would see
I'm just a product of a screwed up world - but they're all
They're all laughing at me
But they're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel
But they're all laughing at me
Never ever wash my old blue jeans
And brush the smile off my face
But still I'm a member of the
Human race - human race - human race - human race
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel
And they're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel
13. Azrael
Long ago - in another life
I was innocent - just a child
Transformed my brain into an evil thing
Now I'm a creature of the night
I'm a shadow in the darkness and I'm watching you
Though you can't see me I am always at your side
When I'm on your heels - you see how it feels
To sense the curse of Azrael
In the night - I'll come to you
Your life belongs to me
I wake you up - you stare at me
I'm the last thing that you'll ever see
The panic in your eyes that I have hungered for
Shows me you have realised the truth
Death comes to the dying - and before your eyes grow dim
The last word on your lips is Azrael
I will destroy your dreams
I will destroy your mind
I will destroy your soul
And then I'll take your life
Sometimes I remember the life I had before
I asked myself was it just a dream
When I close my eyes I see an ocean flowing blood
And in my sleep I hear those fearful screams
So lock your doors - remove the keys
I doesn't matter if you leave or stay
Wherever you go I'll be expecting you
Your resistance is the spice that I crave
When you imagine there's a movement in the shadows
The light around you is weakens more and more
Prepare for the arrival of the uninvited guest
The angel of the darkness - Azrael
I will destroy your dreams
I will destroy your mind
I will destroy your soul
And then I'll take your life, ...
