1. Something Real

There was a shadow over heaven
On the day that I was born
They tried to bless me with holy water
But I was baptised in a storm... Oh yeahhh

I was raised with a crossbow aiming for something real
I sent out the arrow from behind my defense shield
Eternal dreamer so full of lite
A faithful believer soon I will arise

They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
I used to turn the other cheek
Till they pushed me too far
Now I'm right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to balance as the end draws neare... Oh yeahh

I give you everythign just for a while
You got the best of me this is my time
The seed I've been given, Hallelujah
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand
Open your hearts it can be simple
If you just show what you feel
Go look for something real

You can call me a peace warrior
A dark soul of light
I sing for the future
And the melody is my guide
Sailing the waters
Of this endless lullaby
My ship is leaking
Can't stop it if I try... Ohh

They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
I used to turn the other cheek
Till they pushed me too far
Now I'm right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to harmony as my love feels nearer

I give you everythign just for a while
You got the best of me this is my time
The seed I've been given, Hallelujah
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand
Open your hearts it can be simple
If you just know what you feel
Go look for something real

2. Gonna Find The Sun

оригинал: The Snakes

I was so blind just could not see
There was no way out for you or me

We were young and restless
Trying to break free from the strong arm of society

Now I'm a lonesome Jailbird
With no more tears to cry
I've seen so many faces passing by

I can still remember all the good times we had
Sweet lady the thought of you makes me feel so sad

There's a hole in the wall with the light shining in
Now it's time to begin

Cause I got places to go
I got things to see
Now I have to believe

I'm gonna find the sun
Pack my things and run

I'm gonna breathe the midnight air
Look for love somewhere

So many bridges burned
So many lessons learned

My heart's getting old
As the worlds grows bolder

Time is a hunter chasing me down
Got ta get out of here
Before I hit the ground

There's a hole in the wall with the light shining in
Now it's time to begin

I got places to go
I got things to see
And I have to believe

I'm gonna find the sun
Pack my things and run

I'm gonna breathe the midnight air
Look for love somewhere...

3. Bridges Will Burn

I wanna wake up to a brand new morning
Dance in the sunlight when there's love in the air
I wanna see that we can live together
Control the fire and pass on the flame

Deep in the heart I feel sorrow and pain
I can't find the words it's so hard to explain
The bridges we build will burn down
The bridges we make will fall down down down

And so the story goes predictable and senseless
I fear a future so wicked and cold
Gazing from the outside looking inside for a reason
Been searching high and low
But I can't find my way back home

Deep in the heart I feel sorrow and pain
I can't find the words it's so hard to explain
The bridges we build will burn down
Yeah, the bridges we make will fall down down down

Deep in the heart I feel sorrow and pain
Tears in my eyes they keep pouring like rain
The bridges we make will fall down down down
Yeah, the bridges we build will fall down here
Deep in the heart I feel sorrow and pain
I can't find the words it's so hard to explain
The bridges we build will burn down
The bridges we make will fall down down down
Bridges will burn

I wanna wake up to a brand new morning
Dance in the sunlight when there's love in the air
I wanna see that we can live together
Control the fire and pass on the flame
I've searching high and low
But I can't find my way back home no

...and we are aiming higher higher and higher and higher
and higher and higher

4. Young Forever

Blessed with thunder
Crowned with rain
Fuelled with fire
As I spit out the flames
I bring you earthquake
I can be blazing
The demon in my soul is aching
To break free
It's the devil in me

Young forever
In my dreams I can never die
Somebody stop the time wheel
Freeze the night sky
So I can remodel history
Before I wake up the world

Search the answer on this stone of pain
Running with strangers
In the shadow of the game
Short is the moment
Cherish the moment that you've been given
Don't let them evil forces lead you on
And bring you down... down

Strong together
In our dreams we can never cry
We wanna slow the time wheel
Seize the day sky

You can remove my fame
Talk bad of my name
But you can't take my spirit
Can't kill the spirit... no

I've played some tricks
But I was mostly fair
I've had my women
But was love ever there
I brought you power
My energy raging
The chain that held my soul
Is now fading
And I'm free, it's the spirit in me... Yeahh

Young forever
In my dreams I can never die
Somebody stop the time wheel
Freeze the night sky
Strong together
In our dreams we can never cry
We wanna slow the time wheel
Seize the day sky
Before I wake up the world

5. Tungur Knivur

It was a long time ago
where the snowy winds blow
in the land of the midnight sun
in a storm sailed a viking ship
on a vast and long trip
the adventure had just begun
they were cold men of steel
with their swords and their shields

tungur knivur – heavy knife – tung kniv
there was thunder at the edge of the world
tungur knivur – pay the price – tung kniv
out to plunder with blades of steel

on the shore stood a warrior
his eyes are blue and sore
the only one to make it home
his soul was black as the raven
dark sinde the day when
his wounds had turned his heart to stone
he was strong without fear
hear a sound so clear

tungur knivur – heavy knife – tung kniv
there was thunder at the edge of the world
tungur knivur – pay the price – tung kniv
out to plunder with blades of steel

looking back at what was then
it was bravery of men
but time was bound to change everything
they would burn upon the cross
branded by a sacred cause
icon shadows turned to dust

tungur knivur – heavy knife – tung kniv
there was thunder at the edge of the world
tungur knivur – pay the price – tung kniv
out to plunder with blades of steel

6. One Day We Will Put Out The Sun

In the core of the earth a burning fire
Like the flame in my heart aiming higher
Bursting with power bound to explode
Some day the light will go black on the globe

Praying for a master
Someone who can lead us home
Falling in disaster
There'll be no more seeds to grow

On the streets of silence
Blood from war has dried out
There'll be no afterburn

One day we will put out the sun
And drain the sky
One day and the time will come... Yeahhh
We'll need no alibi... No no no

Since the beginning of life
A dark desire
Controlling the mindfields of man
Feel the world burn
The people never learn... Oh yeahhh
It's such a sad sad melody

On the streets of silence
Blood from war has dried out
And there's no return

One day we will put out the sun
And drain the sky
One day and the time will come...
We'll need no alibi... No alibi

On the streets of silence
Blood from war has dried out
We're gonna drain the sky

One day we will put out the sun
And drain the sky
One day and the time will come... Yeahhh
We'll need no alibi

One day... Some day
We'll put out the sun... We'll drain the sky... The sky
One day... The day will come... We'll need no alibi

7. Sunset Station

Well, I got time on my side as I roll the dice
There is something out there waiting for me
And I see roads without signs that can lead you blind
And the lonely way is easy to take

Hold on – hold on tighter
It's a long way to where I'm going

Meet me in a seventh sky
See me at the sunset station
Above the twilight I'll be flying there
It's just the state I'm in
Can't stop myself from dreaming
Won't stop believing I'll be flying there
Somewhere in a seventh sky

And as our life is told and we're growing old
Collecting pieces of the dreams we've been chasing
Brothers ans sisters of sin
Who's gonna loose and who's gonna win
Need a crystal ball to show me the way

Move on – move on faster
It's a long way to where I'm going

Meet me in a seventh sky
See me at the sunset station
Above the twilight I'll be flying there
It's just the state I'm in
Can't stop myself from dreaming
Within the starlight I'll be flying there

Meet me in a seventh sky
See me at the sunset station
Above the twilight I'll be flying there
It's just the state I'm in
Won't stop believing
Can't stop myself from dreaming

Meet me in a seventh sky
See me at the sunset station
Above the twilight I'll be flying there
It's just the state I'm in
Won't stop believing
Can't stop myself from dreaming
I got time on my side
Within the starlight I'll be flying there
Somewhere in a seventh sky

8. Hourglass

I have travelled all across the ocean
I have seen what there is to see,
Been living my life in the fast lane
Now this heart has been torn from me

It's getting colder and I'm slowly dying
I should have told her, and now it's too late

Answer to the hourglass
No escape from the world of the lonely
There's a fire burning deep inside
The soul of the lost soldier

There's been so many women
The smell of sweet perfume
And I'm still searching for a hand to hold
Love has been a stranger to me
And I'm still trying to find the key

When the night draws near
I am slowly rising and the moon is bright
As the city lights grow dim
I'm running wild in a sea of dreams

We all answer to the hourglass
No escape in the world of the lonely
Feel the fire burning deep inside
The soul of the lost soldier
And I'm still trying hard...

And the night is clear
I am slowly rising
Running wild as the wolves are crying
I'm getting older... Soon it's to late...

Hey stranger I know you
We are the same we two,
We'll walk this road together,
We'll ride he winds of never
In the fire we remain not knowing what we gain
And when this nightmare's over our lives begin anew

9. Gate Of Tears

Yeah yeah aah aah aah aah aah
On a mountain of madness madness at the top of the world
Looking down at the people leading their crazy lives
I saw the token token the seal has been broken
We've built the tower way too high
Dreams being shattered the rise and the fall
Hear the sound of judgement day judgement day
Prepare to meet your maker
When they ring that bell it's heaven or hell
We've been tossed we've been crossed
Since the beginning of time we've been lost
Looking for reason walking on broken glass oh oh
My eyes are bleeding the rise and the fall been waiting for so long
At the the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Oh oh aah aah aah aah aah
On the mountain where the light breaks breaks that's where you'll find me
Where the rain falls down on the stone surround
I am the preacher man preacher man the voice of the promised land
We've turned up the power way too high
My eyes are bleeding the rise and the fall it goes on and on and on
At the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight oh oh hoping for a free flight
Dreams being shattered the rise and the fall been waiting for so long
Since the day that we were born good and evil we've been torn
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight hoping for a free flight
At the gate of tears we cry is there a place for you and I
Is there a place for you and I is there a place for you
Gazing at the starlight hoping for a free flight
Hoping for a free flight hoping for a free flight
I am the preacher man the voice of the promised land
Hear the sound of judgement day day
Prepare to meet your maker

10. House Of Cards

It's late at night
And I'm watching the news
There's blood on the screen
And I felt guilty somehow
Escaping from reality
When I close my eyes
Don't wanna see them die
Hear the children cry

There's been so much trouble
Too many sad songs have been played
And when you think you've found something real
It's suddenly so deceiving
Hard to believe in changes
It's a faded paradise
And I'm running out of strength

In this house made of cards
Smoke is rising
Playing in the fire
Change the mode – crack the code
Power overload
SOS – Emergency
No one seems to find the key

I've been seeking my fortune
For too many years
Living on the edge – racing time
But it never took me far
Never got to reach that star
And I'm running out of strength

In this house made of cards
Smoke is rising
Playing in the fire
Change the mode – crack the code
Power overload
SOS – Emergency
Will we ever find the key
What will the future be
I wanna see

We are living on the dark side
In a cold time – searching for the light
Stranded – and we will stand the fight
Must be hope in sight
The wind will blow and seeds will grow
And I know that someday we'll be there

In this house made of cards
Smoke is rising
Playing in the fire
Change the mode – crack the code
Power overload
SOS – Emergency
Gotta find the key

Save me – want me
These are stormy days
Playing in the fire

We are living on the dark side
In a cold time – searching for the light

11. My Own Way

There is no one here to ask
No one here will guide
And show me where to go
Who am I to know?
To many crossroads in my way
To many unanswered questions left
I can't remember how I came here

But I won't loose my faith
I never have, I never will
I won't give up I'm gonna find my own way home
But I won't loose my faith
I never have, I never will
I won't give up I need to find my own way home

Many days and nights have passed
Many miles I walked in vain
the world is silent here
I can only hear my heartbeat
There is no life in sight
No a sound of hope
It seems so far right now
To my horizon

But I won't lose my faith
I never have, I never will
I won't give up, I'm gonna find my own way home
But I won't lose my faith
I never have, I never Will
I can't give up, I'm gonna find my own way home

Journey without an end
I'm reaching for the world
I travel over unknown land
As I cry inside my lonely soul

But I won't lose my faith
I never have, I never will
I won't give up, I'm gonna find my own way home
But I won't lose my faith
I never have, I never will
I'll never stop until I find my own way home
Find my own way home
Find my own way home

But I won't lose my faith and never will
I won't give hope
I'm gonna
Find my way back home
Find my own way home

12. Worldchanger

Earthly saviour can't you see
Bleeding is the world
Our behaviour so absurd
Need something to believe in

World changer – Soul rearranger
You've left us broken hearted
Since the day we started
World changer – Don't be a stranger
Let your healing power show
We've gone too far and can't let go

In the rythim of the heat
Feel the rush within
Day by day avoid defeat
Tell me there's a moaning

World changer – Soul rearranger
Shine your light on everyone
Make our life a happy song
World changer – Living with danger
You know we must be strong
Our will to carry on World Changer...

Always the same – lust for power and gain
Poisoned by demons of hellfire
Choose a map of the road and carry the load
Hold on till the judgement day
Holy land there's blood on the sand
Imperial ages marked by the beast
We still hold the wire
Always get our fingers burned
Will we ever learn why
I feel rush within me

World changer – Soul rearranger
Been waiting so long
Reveal yourself to everyone

Worldchanger – Soul rearranger
You left me blind I cannot see

13. Abyss Of Evil

You wake up in the morning and you shake your weary head
You look for the sunshine but rain falls down instead
Lost in the wilderness there is chaos everywhere
Win or lose pick and choose we are the children of despair
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Tell me what you know tell me what you know
Do you know the wonders of the world
Digging to the core digging to the core always wanting more yeah
No time for healing get down on your knees and pray
There was one shot in the dark a stranger in the park
And I was only one step away
Spinning the wheel chains of steel to the crossroads we sail on
Wise man show me which way to go
Stay away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise ooh oh oh
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Keep away from the abyss of evil
Where the monsters and demons collide
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise
Stay away from the abyss of evil oh
In the eye of the storm you'll be shattered and torn
On your journey to paradise oh oh look away
Stay away from the abyss of evil

14. Where The Winds Blow

Now I'll tell you something baby
You sure know how to keep a good man down
I gave you my heart and soul
Kept you warm when the nights were cold
You say you need some time to think it over
But I can't wait no more
Down that long winding road I'll go
Running fast ain't looking back

Follow a clear blue sky
On all the dreams I'm depending
Until the day that I die
I'll be waiting for sunrise

Where the winds blow
That's where I go
Down the river to the sea
Like a blind man
In a strange land
Will I ever see the day?

Will I ever see the day... woman

I keep on pushing harder
Everyday the song
Remains the same

And I never seem to learn
Bet my heart on love
Now I got memories to burn
Everywhere I go there is trouble
Always double... baby
Spend my time drinking too much wine
I Can't take it no more

Follow a clear blue sky
On all the dreams you're depending
Until the day that I die
I'll be waiting for sunrise

Where the winds blow
That's where I go
Down the river to the sea
Like a blind man
In a strange land
Will I ever see the day

And I'm on the run...

Where the winds blow...
Where the winds blow
That's where I go
Will I ever see the day
Will I ever see the day

Will I ever see the day?

I keep on pushing harder baby

Where the winds blow
That's where I go
Down the river to the sea
Like a blind man
In a strange land
Will I ever see the day?
Where the winds blow
That's where I go
Down the river to the sea
Like a blind man
In a foreign land
Will I ever see the day?

Will I ever see the day... on Lord... woman

15. Christine

There was a time when I was younger
My love was cold and I didn't know wich way to go
Then I was found by a shiny flower
She took me in and saved me from stormy wind

Christine – everyday she is so good – so good to me
Christine – she's everything a man would ever need
Christine – she lifts me up when I'm feeling low
Christine you mean the world to me

The way she moves me with her secret smile
She don't wear no make up
She is pure and wild
I'm as happy as happy can be
Oh, Lucky man, the man it's me

Christine – everyday she is so good – so good to me
Christine – she's everything a man would ever need
Christine – she lifts me up when I'm feeling low
Christine you mean the world to me

Christine – everyday she is so good – so good to me
Christine – she's everything a man would ever need
Christine – she lifts me up when I'm feeling low
Christine you mean the world to me
Everyday so good to me
I'm as happy as a man can ever be
Christine I can't let go
I love you so

16. Big
