 1. Tears of A Mandrake (Single Version)
 
 Gaze at the leaving clairvoyant
 Predicting invasions and pain
 A child cansee through the stranger...
 The Watcher's eye, the noble liar
 
 It's time for the merchant and his help for sale...
 Blades to cut wicked flesh
 On a merchantman he counts his money
 Then he sails away
 The sea he'll cruise is blood and fire
 
 Oh father I can't see a lane
 They make you a pawn in the game
 For we all are deaf, dumb and blind
 
 After the storm when the magic has gone
 Drown in the tears of a mandrake
 Pawn in the game, invisible chains
 Try to move, you'll feel as they graze
 
 After the storm when the magic has gone
 Drown in the tears of a mandrake
 Fading away, the final decay
 Try to move, break out from your chains
 
 When you're off to the hall of the serpent
 See the cynic who's counting his gold
 While gun runners, priests and clairvoyants
 Are dancing around the rising demon
 
 You are taught to eat up all the crap they shit
 Parading your nuts on a silver plate
 Kill your brother by the blade they sell
 For you don't unite
 They reap your bondage sowing evil
 
 There's no use to tell what I've seen
 They know how to make you believe
 Just what they want you to know
 
 [repeat chorus/ solo: Jens/both/Jens/both]
 
 Tears of a mandrake - yeah...
 
 [solo: Jens/Both]
 [repeat chorus]
 
 Drown in the tears of the mandrake
 Pawn in the game - Drown in the tears of a mandrake
 
 
 
 
 2. Jerusalem
 
 Cold in the wind, starless the night
 Rain pouring down when the last one arrives
 So many stories telling of pain
 Are told by the freaks they've been throwing away
 
 Ride out, set off to the sea
 Odd fellows, you and me
 Sail on to a world far away
 That might not exist, we must be insane
 
 Torn and feathered
 Put in the pillory my friend
 Accused as a fool marching on
 In quest for a place they don't know
 
 To Jerusalem
 The piper inside, can't you feel him calling
 You don't be afraid of the horizon
 To Jerusalem
 Don't you give in to their fingers pointing
 So don't be afraid, you won't crash at the horizon
 The dwarf and the giant, children who stray
 The dreamer who's walking far off their way
 A jester cast out, he can't laugh anymore
 Here comes the freakshow... Welcome on aboard
 
 Torn and feathered
 They'll never get what you say
 Kill what they don't understand
 Don't know and don't even try
 
 [repeat chorus]
 [solo: Both]
 [repeat chorus]
 
 
 
 
 3. Out of Control
 
 Into a place of darkness. He was born to live alone
 He got one big desire. One day he`d get the crown
 Hey devil come on help me now
 Let me be your slave to serve you
 To let me be the king
 Just give me a sign
 Take on my mind and let me stay blind
 A victim of life too weak to be king
 
 Out of control - My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
 Out of control - Help me to gain the crown, here is my fate
 
 Wherever I may roam there will be hate and pain
 eye for eye, tooth for tooth. respect is what I gain
 I look up to Mr Crowley. evil powers now unite!
 I will be your darkest nightmare
 my life is a fatal fight
 
 Just give me a sign
 Take on my mind and let me stay blind
 A victim of life too weak to be king
 
 "listen up my friend you just cry for a hand
 but you only pretend that you`re bad. Now!"
 
 We`ll take on my mind
 
 
 
 
 4. The Headless Game
 
 Longing for silence
 "Always faster" is the way that we go
 Not a little patience
 Higher, farer, better we grow
 
 The beast is rising, it's tantalizing
 Those who are taking the time
 Alienation... a revelation...
 Straight to the end of the line...
 
 The cold chill you feel is no dream it's for real
 We don't follow!
 
 Fly! Riding away... Rising today...
 No we don't play your headless game!
 We are alive, don't say goodbye
 Fly! Riding away... Rising today...
 No we don't play your headless game!
 We are alive, don't say goodbye
 
 Cast out from Eden...
 You don't like what we are in your eyes
 We're leading the treason on the race you run
 The way of your life
 
 I am danger, I'm a stranger
 Cause I don't give in to your call
 And not until she is satisfied
 We can come and explode and we fall!!!
 
 We'vr blowing the frame of your headless game:
 We don't follow!
 
 
 
 
 5. Scarlet Rose
 
 The moment when you held me tight
 won`t come back any more
 And at the end of that night
 you slammed the door
 My dream it died away
 just when I saw red
 And nothing but a memory
 is left inside my head
 
 Nothing is forever in life
 But a memory believe it`s true
 And when I gaze in the rain
 i`m crying just for you
 
 The scarlet rose has died
 Lost inside the night
 Left in my mind like a dream and full of pride
 The scarlet rose has died
 
 The one and only way to catch the
 beauty of a dawn
 Is to take a picture
 of the growing sun
 
 I got that experience
 no one could steal away
 One moment of your life is mine
 I remember day by day
 
 Nothing is forever in life
 But a memory believe it`s true
 And when I gaze in the rain
 i`m crying just for you
 
 
 
 
 6. Nailed to the Wheel
 
 Good intentions pave the way of the human child
 Heading for the fork as you walk the path of life
 A spell cast from the hiding woods, don't you close your eyes
 The snake is waiting anytime to penetrate your mind
 Don't you hear voices whispering, incline to walk down
 
 Don't you see the shadow on the wall, angel eyes... the one cast out to fall
 Calling me to look up to the sky we follow but we never know oh why
 
 A vision revealing a child down where I've sure never been
 An angel who's touching the flame, oh the angel is me
 
 Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, let the cut run deep
 Nailed, nailed to the wheel - Nailed, I said go - let bleed! - Go, - let bleed!
 
 [solo: Jens]
 
 Feel it crawl, feel the magic coming over like a daze
 Welcome as the poison for the cornered snake
 Taste of sin, bitter sweet, never, never let us go
 But never, never, never is a price we'd pay to grow
 
 They call it original sin, some call it divine
 The moment the evil appeared... the chance to decide
 
 [repeat chorus]
 
 From children in cradles to hangmen who smile
 Lick up the blood from the blade of your knife
 Walk the stairway, leading down, ride on fire, take the crown
 
 Your mind could be strong but your flesh will be mine
 He's offering those kingdoms, they all could be thine
 Rising powers, tempting gold, but at what price would it be sold?
 It's all up to you...
 
 [solo: Jens]
 [repeat chorus]
 
 
 
 
 7. Vain Glory Opera
 
 The prayers have been spoken
 may the gods be on my side
 may they join my way to bring me victory
 seven at one stroke
 my triumph and my pride
 will be history
 but behind my enemies eyes
 a soul in disguise
 not only lies
 
 We live to fight the hand of doom
 we got the pride to strike a fool
 vain glory be my wicked guide
 
 what`s hell without a paradise
 what`s the night without a day
 we would think it`s bright
 what`s a fall if we can`t rise
 what`s a hero at a play
 without a fool to fight
 
 but behind my enemies eyes
 a soul in disguise
 not only lies
 
 but behind my enemies eyes
 a soul in disguise
 not only lies
 
 
 
 
 8. Theater of Salvation
 
 "I've heard voices in my dream
 Made me stand up, helped me see." Aaah...
 
 Oohhh...
 
 Visions called him to awake his mind
 To find his horizon
 And find out what may be behind
 
 [vision:] "Take what you need
 You can find in the back of your soul!
 Wake up the king in yourself
 To be mighty and bold!"
 
 Seasons of doubt
 Fear and silent desires of life
 Have gone by
 Visions have called back my longing
 For freedom tonight
 Made me sigh...
 
 Wasting my life till the day
 That the voice has appeared...
 Made me see:
 I am the one that can make it
 Through times of despair; I am free!"
 
 They built up a symbol of warning
 To give me fear
 To keep me away from paradise
 Although it's so near
 Expecting I don't take a look
 At what is behind: Freedom calling...
 
 Take a look at the open gate!
 Walk on and don't be afraid!
 Free your mind in what they call
 It's the heart of temptation!
 
 ...oh... Go the way!
 
 Take a look at the open gate!
 Walk on and don't be afraid!
 Free your mind in what they call
 It's the heart of temptation!
 
 Night after night
 I remembered the word of the priest:
 "Thou shalt not!
 Never give in to the promises
 Made by the beast
 So help me god!
 Never give in to temptation
 Or you'll burn in hell
 Along, long time!
 Forever-eternal-salvation
 Is what I can sell
 If you stay blind!!!"
 
 But I wanna know what lies behind
 The gate of their hell
 And I won't believe all the stories
 that they always tell
 I got the mind to find out
 What is right and what´s wrong
 Freedom calling...
 
 Queen of mine I long for you
 Tell me why to wait to find our joy!
 It's your wait for heaven's door
 Your fear that makes them grow
 And let you forget today
 
 I'll never go and I'll
 Stay on your side
 They'll never know what I give to you
 Is a piece of paradise
 
 Heaven can wait! Now I'm living!
 Heaven can wait forevermore
 Heaven can wait!
 I am to live like I want to also before I'll die
 Heaven can wait! You can't thrill me!
 Heaven can wait, we dance till we die!
 Heaven can wait! Welcome to the
 Theater of salvation
 
 "Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
 I hear the man in black, his
 "Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
 He tries to keep me back. No!
 "Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
 Lock up the gates to wisdom
 "Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
 Too late! I've found the kingdom...
 
 Hallelujah, hallelujah!
 I see a band of angels
 Hallelujah, hallelujah!
 Freedom calling...
 Hallelujah, hallelujah!
 I do not fear the stories
 Hallelujah, hallelujah!
 Freedom calling me...
 
 Don't you see it? Don't you feel it?
 Freedom calling...
 
 
 
 
 9. Key to My Fate
 
 Am I totally blind this time when I'm dreamin'
 The dreams that I fear, some call it nightmare
 And some call it life, what is the sense of
 Existing in here
 
 And I think of the sadness when I'm dreamin' of
 Leavin' the pain I don't get all that madness
 And it drives me insane
 
 Now hear me cry, I'm in quest
 Of the key to my fate
 I might be nigh to the key
 In the abyss of hate
 
 Annihilation in my brain
 What is the price that we will be to pay
 When will you lift our little poor souls
 When will you take us oh lord away
 
 Oh when will we die
 Why to suffer to stand up right
 We are victims of time
 We have to fight till the end is in sight
 
 What's the reason to carry on
 What's the reason to fall
 After days of living hall
 After we had to crawl,
 
 Are we totally blind this time
 Can't you tell me the nexus of freedom
 And pain and desires and hate
 And even the holy ones
 
 
 
 
 10. Deadmaker
 
 I can't feel, and I can't see
 I'm falling down what's going on with me
 Lord in heaven why am I here
 Do I live to rise or rise to fall to shed another tear
 
 One more time I fell that I'm alone
 I can't describe it cause it's better to be shown
 Feel the darkness covering the spite
 Hear me screaming when it's pounding deep inside
 
 Forever I'll be a poisoned thorn
 I'll be haunting among your lives
 The moment I was born it was time for him to rise
 
 Deadmaker, deadmaker
 Why don't you realize
 That he can paralyze you all
 
 My sorrow created by you
 And even me cause I'm a self-destroying fool
 I feel the spirit growing deep inside
 I don't expect your comprehension
 Cause even I don't know why
 
 
 
 
 11. Land of the Miracle
 
 
 
 
 12. Until We Rise Again
 
 2080 - our world is an empty domain
 Emotions have died
 Men bleeding oil are the heroes for children today
 Drinking the blood of the weak dictators bring pain
 But they show us a smile
 Feelings and love are kept hidden in a madhouse cave
 
 It`s a mad revolution
 And the spirits will die
 Oh escape the confusion
 Take my hand.
 
 Now take my hand
 Take me now
 Take my hand
 We wont be so free
 Until we rise again!
 
 Eden is mad so enjoy it and fly to the sun
 Don`t you return
 Your breath and your heartbeat are gifts
 You`ve been given for life - oh yeah!
 
 Oh your deepest emotions
 are a sign of our life ad our love
 No robot can stop us
 Take my hand
 
 
 
 
 13. The Unbeliever
 
 I am the madness carrying the torch
 lighting the wheat in your fields
 I am the eyes staring out of the dark
 I am the war of your yields
 
 When you give response away I grow
 I am more of you than you might know
 
 Burning down... burning down...
 It's a story of deceivers
 Burning down... burning down...
 Put the blame on the unbeliever!
 
 I am the vision that comes to your mind
 When you denounce without regret
 "God" is the word in the bible you say
 I am the word that you spread!
 
 I'm born and I lead the weak into the fire
 "No more pain" is what you claim
 While you have found your wicked desire...
 Hahaha...
