1. Soldiers Of Fortune

We're taking the gain of the fairwinds
"Fortuna" right on our side
We take the waves of our destiny
To escape just every plight

Howling winds are calling right from eternity
A promise to be hold – the longing to be free

Soldiers of fortune daring the seven seas of fate
Any risky venture's daily in our trade
Soldiers of fortune travel the winds of space and time
And the timing should be right when we're about to die

We're sliding into the fogbank
Hiding there waiting our terms
The routine of pure piracy
Make big eyes – see and learn

Howling winds are calling right from eternity
A promise to be hold – the longing to be free

Soldiers of fortune daring the seven seas of fate
Any risky venture's daily in our trade
Soldiers of fortune travel the winds of space and time
And the timing should be right when we're about to die

Howling winds are calling right from eternity
A promise to be hold – the longing to be free

Soldiers of fortune daring the seven seas of fate
Any risky venture's daily in our trade
Soldiers of fortune travel the winds of space and time
And the timing should be right when we're about to die

Soldiers of fortune independence is our law
We're drifting with the wind to unknown shores
Soldiers of fortune just entangled with the sea
The daring riffs and waves determine our destiny

2. Resilient

Premonition's creeping up on me
I am just right in a storm
Shifty tricks and hostility
Really can't do me no harm
Temptations are everywhere
To switch off your mind
Contemptuous lies are in the air
The pure and the true to grind

There's no hiding – it just won't go away
So keep on fighting to foil their plans
Madness is rising – slaves are marching on
The free are striding to shake off the trance

Resilient (Resilient ) – We resist till the end
We're taking our pride in the rage of the fight
So we're gonna take our stand – we gonna stay resilient

Resource management in control
They won't just take a bite
Not your body – they want your soul
But we gonna give 'em a fight

There's no hiding – it just won't go away
So keep on fighting to foil their plans
Madness is rising – slaves are marching on
The free are striding to shake off the trance

Resilient (Resilient ) – We resist till the end
We're taking our pride in the rage of the fight
So we're gonna take our stand – we gonna stay resilient

And I always will defend what I'm believing in
I am never giving in – standing proud till the end

Despair and apathy – everywhere – surrounding me
Resignation and frustration – everywhere – got a hold on thee

There's no hiding – it just won't go away
So keep on fighting to foil their plans
Madness is rising – slaves are marching on
The free are striding to shake off the trance

Resilient (Resilient ) – We resist till the end
We're taking our pride in the rage of the fight
So we're gonna take our stand – we gonna stay resilient

3. Adventure Highway

Headless they're turning circles
They're losing attitude
They stagger in confusion
Disoriented move

You're in the game – see the pawn on the chessboard
Recall your name and do your own move

C'mon take a ride on "Adventure Highway"
Take a look inside what's hiding in your soul
Check out the mirror 'n' say "I'll do it my way"
Yes I will be true to the roots of Rock 'n' Roll

The dance attendance on you
They're knitting at a plight
Indoctrinating "Mantra"
Convolution parasite

You're in the game – see the pawn on the chessboard
Recall your name and do your own move

C'mon take a ride on "Adventure Highway"
Take a look inside what's hiding in your soul
Check out the mirror 'n' say "I'll do it my way"
Yes I will be true to the roots of Rock 'n' Roll

Decline of independence
The game is on the board
They're bending rules all over
Just guess who's their lord?

You're in the game – see the pawn on the chessboard
Recall your name and do your own move

C'mon take a ride on "Adventure Highway"
Take a look inside what's hiding in your soul
Check out the mirror 'n' say "I'll do it my way"
Yes I will be true to the roots of Rock 'n' Roll

4. The Drift

Pavement's all wet – there's fog in the streets
Despite that, a weathered shield just appears
Mysterious search is finally done now
That mystical place you heard of for years

Foggy nights and outrageous stories
Sailors yarn right all the way

Rascals and seamen and loose girls drop by
The smokescreen is reaching its high
Legends of raids – hidden treasures and fate
At a sinister dive called "The Drift" – called "The Drift"

One Legged Sam knows what you've been through
A journey of madness 'till the "The Drift" found you too

Foggy nights and outrageous stories
Sailors yarn right all the way

Rascals and seamen and loose girls drop by
The smokescreen is reaching its high
Legends of raids – hidden treasures and fate
At a sinister dive called "The Drift" – called "The Drift"

Foggy nights and outrageous stories
Sailors yarn right all the way

Rascals and seamen and loose girls drop by
The smokescreen is reaching its high
Legends of raids – hidden treasures and fate
At a sinister dive called "The Drift"

Tobacco and pipes and the dark candle lights
So outlaws are taking their hide
Draught beer and rum and dark shanties are sung
At a sinister dive called "The Drift" – called "The Drift"

5. Desert Rose

Riding into the sunset
The highway is winding its way
The motor is droning
While the night is killing the day

Swallowed by the twilight
The plains are hiding left and right
The air's turning colder
Freezing, I am just caught in the ride

Well a red dressed woman – she's just coming
Straight right out of the black
What hell of a vision – a sweet phenomenon to me

Desert Rose – a vision just next to me
Desert Rose – angel or fantasy?
Desert Rose

Her magical dark eyes
Really got a hold on me
Her contours are fading
What the hell do I see

Well a red dressed woman – she's just coming
Straight right out of the black
What hell of a vision – a sweet phenomenon to me

Desert Rose – a vision just next to me
Desert Rose – angel or fantasy?
Desert Rose

Vision's never reccuring
To this magical place
Yes, I am always returning
But I never found any trace

Well a red dressed woman – she's just coming
Straight right out of the black
What hell of a vision – a sweet phenomenon to me

Desert Rose – a vision just next to me
Desert Rose – angel or fantasy?
Desert Rose – a vision just next to me
Desert Rose – angel or fantasy?
Desert Rose

6. Fireheart

You're a wildchild
Freeride on the wings that take you high
They can't chain you
You stay cool by the freedom in your heart

C'mon and take a ride on the fireside

7. Run Riot

A weight of tons right on your back
It seems to pull you down
Still they mess around with you
Before you hit the ground
You're down and out – you hate them all
Anger spells your name
They should beware you're bursting out
Right like a hurricane

Yeah, you gotta run

C'mon you gotta run riot – timing is right tonight
So c'mon you gotta run riot – shout it out in pride – run riot
C'mon you gotta run riot – it really makes sense to me
So c'mon you gotta run riot – a natural act to be – run riot

Music turned to religion too
"The holy grail of prate"
They tell you what to listen to
'cause they don't love they hate
They critizise and terrorize
They've really got no clue
Narrow-minded pedants rule
Culture, politics and you

Yeah, you gotta run

C'mon you gotta run riot – timing is right tonight
So c'mon you gotta run riot – shout it out in pride – run riot
C'mon you gotta run riot – it really makes sense to me
So c'mon you gotta run riot – a natural act to be – run riot

You're done with it and you've had enough
Of idiots and nonsense stuff
Creation and a trivial life
Sweetmeat and daily life
A treadmill to create distress
A New World Order? Ridiculous!
They build it up to tear it down
'cause boneheads wear its crown

Yeah, you gotta run – you gotta run

C'mon you gotta run riot – timing is right tonight
So c'mon you gotta run riot – shout it out in pride – run riot
C'mon you gotta run riot – it really makes sense to me
So c'mon you gotta run riot – a natural act to be – run riot
C'mon you gotta run riot – timing is right tonight
So c'mon you gotta run riot – shout it out in pride – run riot

You gotta run – you gotta run – you gotta run riot

8. Down To The Wire

You're down out now – you rock bottown down the line
They pester on you and your foes are doing fine
The boss gripes about you – he critizises your attitude
Tearing you of a strip now – his behavior's kinda rude

World's turning black now
'cause you're down on your luck

Down to the wire – you're falling – you're falling
Down to the wire – to zero and below
You're down to the wire

Oh you're down and out

Parents on a campaign – they wanna bring you into line
Change right who you are and everything will be fine
Political correctness for grovellers all the way
Intimidation as a weapon – but don't fear to have your say

World's turning black now
'cause you're down on your luck

Down to the wire – you're falling – you're falling
Down to the wire – to zero and below
You're down to the wire

The world is going crazy – indifference's marching up
Drumbeats of a new world and goofballs doing the hop
Freedom's on the lose now – personality fades away
Monotony and correspondence – all colors turn to grey

World's turning black now
'cause you're down on your luck

Down to the wire – you're falling – you're falling
Down to the wire – to zero and below
Down to the wire – you're falling – you're falling
Down to the wire – to zero and below
You're down to the wire

Oh you're down and out
Oh you're down and out – out

9. Crystal Gold

Recovery of drinking water
They privatize it all the way
The want control right completely
They want your body, mind and soul

Perfidious plan to hide their action
They come along in suit and tie
Spitting lies

Natural right to live, to breathe and to be
Crystal Gold – they wanna dy out resistance
Resource control and the next step is your soul
Crystal Gold

The air to breathe is their next raid
You'll better pay or suffocate

Perfidious plan to hide their action
They come along in suit and tie
Spitting lies

Crystal Gold – they wanna take away your freedom
Natural right to live, to breathe and to be
Crystal Gold

They're working hard on a world bust
Creating terror, fear, mistrust

Perfidious plan to hide their action
They come along in suit and tie
Spitting lies

Crystal Gold – they wanna take away your freedom
Natural right to live, to breathe and to be
Crystal Gold – they wanna dry out resistance
Resource control and the next step is your soul
Crystal Gold
Crystal Gold
