1. Deadly Ride
Bunch of riders thrown to the stage
Fed with hope, beliefs and dreams
So many years of painful debates
Hundreds of sleepless nights
We've just come to sound the gong
Deprived of dreams yesterday
The outlaws thrown to the edge of time
We'll feed your hearts with the burning blast!
We'll raise the flag once again
For the last time on a barricade we'll stay
We'll give you a pass to the deadly ride
We'll show you what to do to see the light
DEADLY RIDE, burning power
DEADLY RIDE, in the dark
DEADLY RIDE, our last exile
I met the demon tonight
I saw his scary face
I heard his voice, he said "Take your sword
And give the hymn, give the law!"
2. Time Eater
It's life that can make you dead
Everything's the same
That's enough!
So go to work and pray
Come back home again
A vicious circle!
It's time that's running out
And waits for noone
Makes you old
So back to life for a new
Cos' I need to breathe
On my body thrill I feel
I spread my wings for the future's near
Time eater's waiting!
I open gates of the future clear
Time eater's waiting!
To see the woods, to see the trees
To reach the shores, swim the seas
Do it now!
3. Never Gonna Die
Screaming!
On pathless tracks we ride
Screaming!
Feel it!
The wind that's cooling our bikes
Feel it!
They bring me down
This road is mine
I won't waste my time
Throw into gear
Get rid of fear
Horizon's near
The sun's going down, nightfall is near
Angel and devil are dead
But there's still hope until metal is here
The morning sun brings the new day
We're NEVER GONNA DIE!
Hear it!
The sound that's bursting your entrails
Hear it!
It's just a deadly ride
Against the tide
No lust to hide
4. Ghost Of Atomic Past
Wisp of smoke
Stimulating burning eyes
Eyelids weak
Closing slowly to retire
Here's the dream that comes to me every night
Atomic nightmare
Acorched earth, burnt land
Will I ever wake?
Here comes the pain
The nightmare's begun
I found it at last
Ghost of Atomic Past
Beam of light
Penetrating deadly dust
Crusty ground
No trace of man, no trace of life
I want out I don't wanna dream no more
The wisp of smoke
Made my dreams rotten to the core
Will I ever wake?
Here comes the pain
The nightmare's begun
I found it at last
Ghost of Atomic Past
Here comes the light
Shining so bright
I found it at last
Ghost of Atomic Past
5. Why, Grace?
She lived in old Victorian manor
She had her man, she loved him to death
But she was possessed by jealousy
Pretty, green eyed, Grace was her name
Nightmares every night drive her mad
In dreams she sees the other girl
Making passionate love with her man
Wake up, Grace! The nightmare's come to an end
Jealousy bursting out in her head
Turned into real obsession
Thoughts of murder she had on her brain
So one night she knew her aim
"Roses are red, violets are blue
Grass is green and I love you"
She came to bed and kissed him for goodbye
She took the knife and cut his throat
That was the demon's night
Blood was let, just parting groan
He didn't even try to fight!
6. Images Converted
What's the untruth and what is real?
Misleading scenes in front of my eyes
Images pottering about in my head
Can't get to know what's the matter with me
What is true and where's reality
Anybody give me the reply!
Pricks of conscience rule my mind
Nobody cares so why should I?
Here and now
All that I can see [the reflection I can see]
Is it really real? [is it really me?]
Here and now
All that I can see [the reflection I can see]
Can't get to know what's the matter with me
There's something morbid in my brain
It is calling my name
There is a war, a war inside me!
7. Rat Race
Taking a shortcut, not turning away
Opponents' breath on your back can feel!
Clenching your fists, elbowing the way
Whisper "I kill them" is a kind of your pray
When the hand of conscience is touching you
You're banging your fists blindfold
No turning back, don't leave the track, GO AND ATTACK!
There must always be the same!
"Over my dead body" you're screaming out
Speed up your speed and be ready for a scrap
The rule is "the only good rivals are dead"
The top of the world you need to conquer
When the hand of conscience is touching you
You're banging your fists blindfold
It's not the first time
And it's not the last
When I'm taking the part
In the RACE OF RATS!
Taking a part
The RACE OF RATS!
Taking a part
In the RACE OF RATS!
