1. Break of Darkness
2. Looking for the Light
Darkness comes,
When you’re looking for the light
Courses change,
But are they wrong or right
Minds open up
And let in new ideas
You’ll find yourself
Hiding from your fears
You know you’re
Looking for the light,
Looking for the light
They see you
Shining in the night,
Shining in the night
Just keep on
Looking for the light,
Looking for the light
Don’t give in…
Can’t you see that
You’re burning at both ends
Your path gets brighter,
Then suddenly it bends
Evil fights with good,
And usually it wins
A never ending hell
And here it comes again
Now you know that
You’ve finally reached the end
Nowhere to run,
But it’s not over yet
Look into your dreams,
They’ll tell you what to do
Then listen in the air
The light is calling you
3. Nightstalker
Somber and demented,
He lays his head to rest
A mind licensed to kill,
Blackballed from his nest
He sets his sights upon you,
Fire in his eyes
A psychopathic killer,
He loves to hear you cry
He’s the nightstalker,
He’s going to get you
He’s the nightstalker,
Now what ya gonna do
You feel him upon you,
He grabs you by the throat
He shines his blade above you,
You wear his bloody coat
As you walk the streets at night
With darkness closing in
Shadows follow close behind
And you know one is him
4. Valhalla
Great Valhalla hall of slain
Hero’s brought are rid of their pain
They seek to find,
What’s left behind
Golden walls are gleaming bright
Take the darkness out of night
It’s just a game,
Life has come again
Far beyond the sun,
Twisted in a rainbow
A new life has begun,
But it will last forever
Valkyries are serving mead
But there are many
Mouths to feed
This luxury, how can it be
Bringing of the morning sun
Battles begin but all is done
It’s just a game,
Never ending game
5. Ship of Dreams
Ship of dreams, sail away
Take my mind back to the day
When my love was on the shores
And we journeyed
Through the doors
Time and space stand still,
When we’re together
Close your eyes and
Make it last forever
Eternity is ours,
Far beyond the stars
So sail on,
Sail ship of dreams
Voyages of times gone by
As we venture through the sky
Forever yours and forever mine
We will stay till the end of time
Now we sail against the tide
At the stern you’re by my side
Chasing dreams of mystery
On an open endless sea
Our dreams will come to life,
With each and every day
Exploring passages
Found along the way
Your vision broadens
As we travel on
While we pass the galaxies,
The dream has just begun
Ship of dreams sail with me
Take me where I will be free
Sail until the sun is gone
As we travel further on
6. In Her Eyes
Sacred and holy,
Feared and obeyed
Maybe a spirit,
Yet something unmade
Still she knows all
How is she wise
I’ll bet, it’s in her eyes
Heard from a mountain,
She calls my name
Seemingly dismal,
Inflicting the pain
Night walks behind her,
Death is a friend
Predicting the future,
Foreseeing the end
Everything seen. Are they all lies?
No, it’s in her eyes
Dreams turn to visions,
They all seem so real
Her hand held out to me,
Waiting to feel
Her eyes burn my body,
But how can this be?
They hold me like iron,
I try to break free
Face like a princess,
But it’s just a disguise
It’s in her eyes
Her skin is like velvet,
Hair black as coal
But don’t look inside her,
She has no soul
Her power is magic,
She uses it well
Flames getting closer,
Falling to hell
Don’t be a fool,
Too many have tried
Don’t look in her eyes
7. Temptress
I took a walk to clear my head
I had to think
About the things you said
Misguided truth, hidden lies
To see what’s real
I look into your eyes
Untouched beauty,
An angel’s face
I know there’s something more
Beneath your lace
I see your shadow standing there
A devil lurks inside,
Fire everywhere
She’s a temptress,
A temptress woman
She wears a red dress,
For a temptress woman
I felt your passion inside me burn
I know it hurts
But I just never learn
I’ve got to leave, get away
Why don’t you want to try
And make me stay
It’s just a game, played for you
And I’do anything
You want me to
I try and tell you but you don’t see
I want these chains removed,
Why won’t you set me free
Her evil pulls you down, her stare
Will turn your head away
You’ll scream without a sound,
Waiting for the break of day
Why can’t you hurt me,
Then let me go
My love for you was gone
Some time ago
But you still hold on,
To what you need
And here I die for you,
You watch me bleed
I see the laughing,
Do you think I’m blind,
I know the faded mask
You hide behind
You hold the dagger,
I hold the key
Go ahead and use it now,
All you’ll do is set me free
8. Caught a Prisoner
I’m coming down so fast,
You won’t know what to do
And I’ve got nothing nice to say
The bonds that were
So strong can’t hold me anymore
Been resurrected from the grave
Was I so blinded,
I’m getting caught up in a race
To be a prisoner,
The fight with death eternal race
I was the biggest fool,
I found out myself
You tried to take away my life
You played the part so well
I almost slipped away
Inside it cut me like a knife
Safe and sound, the foolish lie
Unparted couple you and I
Gleaming white, through the night
You caught a prisoner
You just can’t fight
9. On the Edge
I can’t go on without you
What are these things I’ve done
I can’t see beyond the falling sun
Sometimes I feel so lonely
But then I’m all alone
I watch the city lights
Come and go
But then I see what
I’m trying for just ahead
And when I reach
It seems so far away
The crowds are growing stronger
And they can hear the sound
I hope we see them
All next time around
Where will this journey take me
When all I need is a friend
I’ll never know just
Where I’ll find the end
Once, on the edge falling down
I feel iron bars all around
To me has my soul lost its bound
On the inside, looking out
10. Tribulation
In the light of the summer sing
I feel the warmth
Your presence brings
Not so far away
All alone I’ve walked the line
Through the mist
I’ve seen the sign
Now I hear it’s come to stay
And I hear it’s coming your way
Run for your life for
He has returned
Destroying the city beneath you
The pain of defeat is fresh
On his mind
The strength of his power
Will take you away
The people are lost,
They run in the streets
Looking for someone
To save them
The earth opens up,
Devouring its own
Time couldn’t stand,
Not for one more day
I’ve seen the sign,
Your strength and mine
Bound together in a song
Standing tall, against them all
Fighting for who’s right
And who’s wrong
Don’t turn away,
Come back and stay
11. Reign of the Wizard
His staff is shining bright
As he sails through the night
Before he ends his journey
They will fall
His wigs are made of steel
Bringing death to those who feel
The chosen stand
Before him at his call
Where have you been
Time changed to sin
Has it begun, he is the one
The sun rides on his back,
It is bright as it is black
Bringing morning’s light
Before it’s due
Sound is at his side,
His destruction three miles wide
And you know he’s calling
Just for you
His wings are made of steel,
Bringing death to those who know
And everyone that feels,
Has felt the cutting of his blo
12. The Mystic Warrior (Live)
I see the fires burn,
Glowing on the hill
A castle’s silhouette
Against the sky
As wolves howl in the dark,
And I ride through the night
My armor with the stars
Is shining bright
And you won’t know me
Till the light has shown
I shall elude
The tower guards alone
Adventure is my way
And maidens fair
And my love is to live for dare
The anvil sparks with steel,
Metal gods are made
Used to slay
Another useless slave
The moonlight haunts me now,
Hallowed is the dawn
My quest is for revenge,
A price be paid
