1. Starrider

Way home, close to midnight
Along the road, pursued by a strange light
Something forces me from the line

I come around, where have I been?
I've cosmic knowledge and strange signs on my skin
I don't dare to remember
What has happened in this night

No one believes me,
But I know what I have seen
A light in the sky
Starrider takes me high

Takes me high
Takes me high
Takes me high
Starrider takes me high

Every time when I look up in the sky
Cold shivers run down my spine
Dazing pictures in my dreams since then

Believer
Deceiver
They jeer, while they can't explain it
But what am I do when they will come again?

No one believes me,
But I know what I have seen
A light in the sky
Starrider takes me high

2. Martyr's Paradise

A chess piece of terrorism
Forced by hatred and heroism
Anguish in his breast

Awaiting in silent patience
His eyes filled with termination
A lot of souls shall leave their shell tonight
For the Martyrium

Where disgraceful angels play
The maidens shall wash their blood away
Where God rewards the genocide
Outlawed Martyr's Paradise

Decided and no doubts in his face
Fanatic visions of Allah's embrace
Concluded with himself

Self perished, the apostate Jesus
Tears their souls into thousand pieces
The innocents will face the final court
And justice failed again

Where disgraceful angels play
The maidens shall wash their blood away
Where God rewards the genocide
Outlawed Martyr's Paradise

Scorn will pale my name,
And hate will curse my tomb
God takes the guilt from me
And blood will be my legacy

Where disgraceful angels play
Maidens wash their blood away
God rewards the genocide
Outlawed Martyr's Paradise

3. Crimson Desert

We are here
Stationed million Miles from home
To defend, to protect
To save freedom
USA always at your command

You know
How cruel the world can be
So we raise a sign
For liberty
And now we have to raise our flag
And start the aerial attack

Rudely awakened
There's blood upon the streets
Our freedom was taken tonight
Search for a stash
Inferno from above
But there is no real chance to hide

A prouder salute with your boots on our heads
Who made you to the god of mine?
The truth is getting shrouded with stars and with stripes
Justice never treats so unkindly

Move forward
Though Baghdad's gazing heat
Western Corps
Don't know the term: Defeat
Still remember how our towers fell?

Fire has failed
To bring regret
Call to arms
Sounds from the minaret
So our weapons can't be laid to rest
'Till there's democracy in your chest

Ohohoooh
Hail to our flag
Ohoooh
Baghdad under attack

Ohoooh
Hail to our flag
Ohoooh
Baghdad under attack

4. When Autumn Leaves Fall

Rain of dripping past
A puddle reflects my heart
Wind carries the autumn leaves away

I feel anxiety awake
It's too late
To make a change
Now I'm old, too tired to live
Just hours save me from the end

As long as we have to die
We need to find our place in time
To justify our life
As long as we have to die

Memories full of guilt
Wishes unfulfilled
What have I reached in my life?

So it whispered in my head
Urgently, so I can't forget
Time is frozen, but the bell chimes
Tears my hearing and I know

As long as we have to die
We need to find our place in time
To justify our life
As long as we have to die

Pretty leaves are falling down,
From green to red at last to brown
So insignificant but yet nice
So, I found the answer to my life

Oh the autumn leaves fall
Oh the autumn leaves fall
Oh the autumn leaves fall
Oh the autumn leaves fall

As long as we have to die
We need to find our place in time
To justify our life
As long as we have to die
As long as we have to die

5. Against The Time

Once we were young
Once we were wild and free
With grateful dreams in our hearts

We captured the pleasures
Left no stone unturned
The world could be ours if we want

Reach the sun
Before the storm will come
That'll take away my last remains

All by myself
'til the clock strikes twelve

We have to pay
We have to bleed
We have to fight
Against the time

The days passing by
And we run out of time
So there is no more time to waste

So don't miss the chance
To make your dreams come true
Remember that time is riding fast

Reach the sun
Before the storm will come
That'll take away my last remains

All by myself
'til the clock strikes twelve

We have to pay
We have to bleed
We have to fight

Against the time
Against the time

Let's go

At least we can say
We've tried all what we can
To bequeathe a mark on this world

Now show me that fire,
I know from back then
And raise a memorial for you

Reach the sun
Before the storm will come
That'll take away my last remains

All by myself
'til the clock strikes twelve

We have to pay
We have to bleed
We have to fight

Against the time
Against the time
Against the time
Against the time

6. Men Or Machines

Mountains of rust and steel
A world in disarray
Media prepares the truth
And drugs shall keep them calm

People in rank and file
The engine never sleeps
All gears serve the purpose
Weakness is not needed here

Eyes stare in emptiness
Without identity
The will was withered
And all voices are gone

Kids without a smile
Are born immune to feel
Raise to follow
To the iron hand

Thoughts control
Shall expose our souls
Vitreous
'cause, our hearts are not made to believe

Mind programmed
We are captured and damned
To be numb
'till can't remember what we be
Men or machines
Men or machines

Synchronised
In collective we arise
In collective we will die
Sacrificed the inner self

Passionless mediocrity
We depend on the machine
Just a part of this cold void

The past is erased
The erased is forgotten
The lie becomes the truth
And becomes a lie again

Freedom is the Freedom to say
Two and two equals four
If that is granted,
All else follows

Human life is worth nothing
Power and avarice
Creates the loose cannon
Still strive for more and more
'till nothing left to prey

This shattered race
Shall be the pride of creation?
God can't believe
What has happened to his former earth

Forgive us

Thoughts control
Shall expose our souls
Vitreous
'cause, our hearts are not made to believe

Mind programmed
We are captured and damned
To be numb
'till I can't remember what we be

Men or machines
Men or machines
Men or machines

7. Karma

Light
The sphere alit in garish light
Unknown sapience fills my mind
All mundane forsakes my fate
My weightless soul does levitate

Elder spirits call at me
Equal nightmares frequently
The deity on lions throne
Straight from the abyss of my soul

Afterworld
Afterworld
On my way I led astray

Afterworld
Afterworld
From my inner sanctuary

Now
I wander through the plains of dread
Somewhere between life and death
And I try to find escape
From phantoms in angelic shapes

The realm descends into bedlam
With blood drinking guardians
This images breaks my sanity
God, consciousness dwindles from me

Afterworld
Afterworld
From my inner sanctuary

I felt the harm of my own vile deeds
And failed to pass this final trial
So I seek refuge in mother's womb
And so it will start again
Start again
Start again

8. Exit: Night

The men stride to the night
Try to run from their plight
Leave all sorrows behind tonight

Escape the daily monotony
Dream a life, how it should be
Link our little worlds to a universe

We're gonna scream and pound the rage off our souls
And common we will stay 'til mornin' dawn
Hunger for all that takes the dull from me
And the song gives me the strength to carry on
To carry on

Leather, chains and cartridge belts
Outlaws among themselves
Rushing to the show tonight

And the noise fulfilled the calm
Live streams through the lines of our palms
When the band begins to play our song

We're gonna scream and pound the rage off our souls
And common we will stay 'till mornin' dawn
Hunger for all that takes the dull from me
And the song gives me the strength to carry on
To carry on

We're gonna scream and pound the rage off our souls
And common we will stay 'till mornin' dawn
Hunger for all that takes the dull from me
And the song gives me the strength to carry on
Come on

We're gonna scream and pound the rage off our souls
And common we will stay 'till mornin' dawn
Hunger for all that takes the dull from me
And the song gives me the strength to carry on
To carry on

9. Black Star Pariah

Corruption and profit are reigning in this godless land
pollies and lawyers sold their soul to the devil's land
embitered advocates, who played with others lives
sowed the beginning of the end

Our leader, he preaches idiotic ideologies
he abuse his power while people starve in the streets
but tell me if you stand before the heaven's court
how will you justify your deeds

Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
what have you become

War after without insights by the aftermath
a peaceful time we just know from the scripts of the past
and as a storm of rage ravaged above this earth
I closed my eyes and flew away

Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
what have you become

I saw the kids smiling again
brothers who take them by the hand
I got a little glimpse of freedom for a trice
if only it was in my dream

Oh, we live on borrowed time
oh, our clock has run down

But 'till the first sunray pierce through the crimson clouds
I still believe in times of change

Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
Black Star Pariah
what have you become
