1. The Book Of Heavy Metal (March Of The Metallians)

I?d sign – a contract with the devil
I?ve tried – for so very long
I?d die – to become immortal
that?s why I sing this song
Am I a wannabe? – have I no dignity.
Who?d give up all my life.. to be
In the book of heavy metal.. metal!
In the book of heavy metal

In life – I have no religion
besides the heavy metal gods
wear nothing but black skin tight leather
My skin?s clad with Metal studs
Am I a wannabe? – have I no dignity.
I give up all my life to be..
In the book of heavy metal.. metal!
In the book of heavy metal

Some twenty years ago, the goods put down there feet,
So firmly in to the ground that no man of sword nor pen,
could ever chains the rules upon which
The very fundament of metal was made.

Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal
Read all about it, in the manual
Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal
Read all about it
Don?t need no flashy house, no kids/car or ugly wife
the only thing I want, is what my parents don?t
need no widescreen TV, No in all honesty
the only thing I want to be (to be or not to be)

In the book of heavy metal – In life – metal!
In the book of heavy metal – to death – metal!

I?ve signed – a contract with the devil
I?d like to become a star
I?d die – to become immortal
That?s why I play the guitar

2. Into The Moonlight

Altogether why! I can't believe my eyes
what I see standing in front of me

Crowd of thousand Men who've come to make a stand
Here we are, under the seven stars

Ride, side by side
touching the fire in the soul of ours, tonight as we ride
into the moonlight
fear, step aside
run and hide I'm not afraid to risk my life as we ride
into the moonlight

halfway home we face the dark ones eye to eye
step aside! Unless you want to die

Night is cold and black a blind man leads the blind
we can't see the forest for the trees

Ride, side by side
touching the fire in the soul of ours, tonight as we ride
into the moonlight
fear, step aside
run and hide I'm not afraid to risk my life as we ride
into the moonlight

Ride, side by side
touching the fire in the soul of ours, tonight as we ride
into the moonlight
fear, step aside
run and hide I'm not afraid to risk my life as we ride
into the moonlight

3. The Sledge

Let me hear – it loud and clear
A sound of steel that pierce my ears
This is my Achilles heal
I want an Overdose of steel

A lasting first impression
right there I was crushed
By the sledge of rock (rock!)
By the sledge of rock (rock!)
I just can't seem to get enough
Of the sledge of rock (rock!)
Of the sledge of rock
Hit me! With the sledge of rock

It hit me right between the eyes
addicted till the day I die
It's something i can't live without
Beyond the shadow of a doubt

A lasting first impression
right there I was crushed
By the sledge of rock (rock!)
By the sledge of rock (rock!)
I just can't seem to get enough
Of the sledge of rock (rock!)
by the sledge of rock
Hit me!

May happen to heavy metal
But rock never rust. No!
Like a ton of bricks now are you
ready to be crushed
by the sledge of rock...

By the sledge of rock (rock!)
I just can't seem to get enough
Of the sledge of rock
Hit me! With the sledge of rock

4. No Way

It will outlive us all booth you and I
No rules without exception this one can not die
Regardless of genres expression shape and form
It sometimes just catches it's breath before the storm

It is only rock'n roll

No way– it won't happen
No way– but they can try
No way– to kill my darling
Rock'n roll will never die

Something's go out of fashion wile others last
History repeats it self in the future as in the past
Regardless of genres expression shape and form
We strike wile the iron is hot not lukewarm

It is only rock'n roll

No way– it won't happen
No way– but they can try
No way– to kill my darling
Rock'n roll will never die

Just reinvent it self time after time
It has been done before time after time...

No way– it won't happen
No way– but they can try
No way– to kill my darling
Rock'n roll will never die

No way– it won't happen
No way– but they can try
No way– to kill my darling
Rock'n roll will never die

5. Crusaders' Anthem

The people:
Tell me who is that man
With blood on his hands
Pretending he?s god
With a mind of his own
Built a tower of stone
To reach for the sky
Is it true what they say
All the things that they do
This tyrant must go

The crusaders:
Burn down Jerusalem
light up and carpe diem
hurry now we can?t let them win
Burn down Jerusalem
The home of evil men
It must burn and be cleansed from all sin

The people:
He can whip up a wind
He can play with your mind
With a gesture so faint
No more whispering campaign
Everywhere on the walls
this devil we paint
See the people in chains
See them suffer in pain
Through the hot desert sand

The crusaders:
Burn down Jerusalem
My wish is your command
I?m the king of the desert sand
Burn down Jerusalem
This god forsaken land
It must burn and be cleansed from sin

He?s evil at heart – so stay away
and now you?ve been warned. The tyrant must die

6. Let's Make Rock

Can you feel it? It's in the air tonight
Can you touch it? Makes you feel alright
Feel the power, let me se your hands
Please come closer even closer
Now let's break down the fence

Let's go crazy we won't stop until we make you go wild
Don't be lazy altogether now stand up and shout

Let's make rock
What are you waiting for
Lets make rock
I gonna give you more

I can feel it! Its everywhere tonight
I can touch it! Such a great delight
I'm on fire! Feel the temperature rise
Take me higher so much higher
Se the burning flames in your eyes

Let's go crazy we won't stop until we make you go wild
Don't be lazy altogether now stand up and shout

Let's make rock
What are you waiting for?
Let's make rock
We gonna give you more

Harder than heavy in the night
We gonna rock you till the morning light

Let's make rock
What are you waiting for?
Let's make rock
We gonna give you more
Let's make rock
What are you waiting for?
Let's make rock
We gonna give you more

7. Tired

We all once in a while
wonder where our lives
taking us and where we're going
I've reached a certain point
Realized I don't
know what the hell I am doing

Am I born to walk alone
Through the fire and the storm
pushing myself to the limit
Was it meant to be this way
spending my days, all on my own

I'm still the man I used to be
just slightly matured and wise
I lately have realized!

I don't want to be alone anymore
I want someone by my side
Someone to give me unconditional love
Of this life I am so tired

I want to be alive
Want to have a life – different than how I am living
don't want to settle down
Want to be around
When and where ever I'm needed

Am I born to walk alone
Through the fire and the storm
I can't control what I'm feeling
if I walk against the wind
Torn up within will it pay off

So tired – of fighting battles on my own
So tired – I've worked fingers to the bone
So tired –Of being a loner alone!

I don't want to be alone anymore
I want someone by my side
Someone who give me unconditional love
Of this life I am so tired

8. Chosen Twice

Just who do we think that we are, anyway
I leave it to you, Assume away
It's Better to burn out – than fade away
We don't care, we don't care what they have to say

They calleth us Anti-Christ
Cause we are evilized
they try to have us stoned
up from their mighty throne
but can't they see the fun
in it apparently not
but do we care a lot
No no no!

We've been accused of selling out too cheap
They look for the answers way too deep
The king is dead – long live the king
It don't mean, it don't mean, it don't mean a thing...

They calleth us Anti-Christ
Cause we are evilized
they try to have us stoned
up from their mighty throne
but can't they see the fun
in it apparently not
but do we care a lot
No no no!

They calleth us Anti-Christ
Cause we are evilized
they try to have us stoned
up from their mighty throne
but can?t they see the fun
in it apparently not
but do we care a lot
No no no!

9. M.O.M.

Are you with them or against?
The masses begging for revenge
Some wimps they prefer staying neutral –
Til they come to their house
Time's up make a stand and choose your side

Are you a Man or a mouse? –Man or mouse
Are you?
Are you a Man or a mouse? –Man or mouse

Now show some courage and claim your rights
well my true colours are black and white
Too late to come ask for protection –
when they've burnt down your house
Stand up for yourself and tell me now

Are you a Man or a mouse? –Man or mouse!
Are you?
Are you a Man or a mouse? –Hey!

The question is are you a.. Man!– Mouse!
The question is are you a.. Man!– Mouse!
My question is... are you a Man or Mouse...

10. The Mirror

Mirror, mirror on the wall
I'm on my way to loose control

You blind me with your beauty
The reflections makes me high

Will my spirit for ever die
If i break the reflected eye

This magic that you show me
make me look forever young
immortalized on the outside
but rotten deep inside

Mirror, mirror.... Look at me
Mirror, mirror
Who is that man, that staring back at me

Precious, precious save my soul
My skin looks hot though my heart is cold

I want to live my life in silence
I want to live my life in peace

Who is that man, that looks back at me

Mirror, mirror... Look at me
Mirror, mirror... Set me free
Mirror, mirror... Look at me
Mirror, mirror...
Tell me who's that man, that staring back at me

11. Only For The Night

How I hate to see you leave tomorrow
Leave behind a man in pain and sorrow
Silly me, who thought we'd be together
But tonight we'll say goodbye forever

Only for the night
Take me to the moonlit sky
Only for the night.

Even though I do respect your wishes
All we had in a whiff has turned to ashes
You and I were perfect for each other
Can't you see, you and I must be together.. but!

Only for the night
Take me to the moonlit sky
Only for the night.

This is wrong – Don't you see
We belong – you and me
How I wish that you could change your mind

Only for the night
Take me to the moonlit sky
Only for the night.

This is wrong – can't you see
We belong – you and me
How I wish that you could change your mind
Only for the night

12. Unbreakable Chain

If you think that you're strong on your own. You best think again.
I've been there, I've been everywhere So listen my friend

Hear me out let me try to explain I see what you think
But a chain is never stronger than, its weakest link

Don't be afraid, altogether we can make a change
let's all bind together, to form an unbreakable chain

You and I belong
together we're strong
Only the fight remain
united we are strong
but weak on our own
No one can break this chain
No they cannot break this chain..

When you're low, feeling weak and confused – don't be alarmed
Cause I'll be there, to back you up like a log – we're brothers in arms.
Immovable stand together in snow, wind and rain
the millions of people who've form the unbreakable chain

You and I belong
together we're strong
Only the fight remain
united we are strong
but weak on our own
No one can break this chain
No they cannot break this chain..

You and I belong
Together we're strong
Only the fight remain
United we are strong
But weak on our own
No one can change how we feel
No! no one can break this chain..of steel

13. Enemy

(Japan Bonus Track)

Who I once was I do not know
Starting from scratch as Johnny Doe
I have no name or number
No family nor friends
No one on which I can depend

I'm no enemy
Just a man who've forgotten his past I have no identity
All is blank, my memory's gone with the wind

Seem to have lost my mind somewhere
Can't seem to find it anywhere
People are staring at me
With fear in their eyes
Children are crying at my sight

I'm no enemy
Just a man who've forgotten his past, why all this
Hostility won't you please tell me what I have done
this witch-hunt can't go on anymore
can't you see – this pursue is killing me
leave me alone, I'm not the NME, NME!

I'm no enemy
Just a man who is asking himself who am I no enemy
Just a man who is asking himself who am I
no enemy I'm your friend
You're no enemy – be my friend

14. Chapter 6(66)

(Japan Bonus Track)

Sinister plot, not like the rest of the book
A bit more in depth, mysteriously at the first look
I don't why but I prefer chapter 5
There's something, There's something, There's something so weird..?bout

Chapter 6(66)

Reading is good, living is better
It says in The book of heavy metal
You shall not steal, you shall not rape, you shall not kill!
There's something, There's something, There's something so sick.. About!

Chapter 6(66)

From frame to frame, an Underlying theme
Though some, remains the same, just like an evil dream
Turning a page, enter a new world and a plot
You think you have solved it but then again not..

Chapter 6(66)
