1. Holy
Raised from the glowing ashes of cauldron iron
The Phoenix arose from the sanctum of metal
Emerging into the light
So many hard times
So many bad lies
A man of steel
You know I'm real
Ev'rything I do
I'm taking all control – it's my heart
You know it's how I feel
So stick it in your mind – now you're mine
Time – it's time I'm taking over
And crank it up in overdrive
I'll tell you why
You know I'm holy
So fucking holy – raise your hands
You know I'm holy
So fucking holy – pain and pride
So many places
So many aces
I made a curse
I gave you birth
Ah – glorious metal times
The master of our lives – never died
A special kind of force
Together no remorse – you'll be mine
Burning on overload
Legends won't die
No cross – no burdens to control
No asking why
The master never dies
2. Raiders Of Beyond
Raiders gonna open up the stargate
The planetary call is here to stay
Galactic energy's in all directions
A ticket for a ride on a time machine
Now the gate is open solar wide
Million kingdoms are inside
Raiders of beyond – energise
Raiders of beyond – speed of light
Raiders of beyond – blinding white
Raiders of beyond – blaze eternity
Systematical declining forces
'n' gravity has lost 'n' gone for good
Hypersonic engines scream for mercy
The elements will bear and take the load
3. Midnight Mover
Hey you –– come on
I show you something
There is what it takes for you
Mmh, you better follow me
Go –– gonna ease your pain
Ooh, you will remember me
That's it what they used to say
Seducing everybody for the money
Slow down –– back off
Tell him you don't pay the price
He is a midnight mover
Coming in the night –– going with the light
He is a midnight mover
He can't go on in the sunlight
You better use your brain
Ooh, you are forever free
That's it, there's no place to stay
For someone who is losing, it's not funny
Slow down –– back off
Tell him you don't pay the price
He is a midnight mover
Coming in the night –– going with the light
He is a midnight mover
Midnight mover –– midnight mover
He is a midnight mover
Coming in the night –– going with the light
He is a midnight mover
He can't go on in the sunlight
He is a midnight mover
Coming in the night –– going with the light
He is a midnight mover
He can't go on in the sunlight
4. Independence Day
One electrified eye
Freezing metalized smile
No more cheating the code
The scene is set – emotions disconnected
Welcome to the cyber trail
Laser cops and sirens wail
Held down with magnetic force
Said: come with us – you broke the law
Obey the rules – don't do no wrong
A thought too loud – and crime is done
No appeal for the common man
Just cold hard facts – in computer land
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There's no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
Cyborg arms put the straps around
One more second 'till the switch comes down
Flaching lights – a cage of steel
Turns my head into a dead dogs meal
In this world – robotic rage
You'll understand the acid pain
Do no right – you won't last long
Remote controlled – under the heel of submission
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There's no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
No remorse – for human kind
No recourse – to keep your mind
It's too late – there's no escape
Is this the end of the line
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There's no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
All freedom burns on eternal fire
There's no more independence day
Forever gone never have another
No other independence day
No use for humanity
We'll never ever be free again
No tomorrows
Zero – the number of the year
Zero – the number of the year
5. Metal Eater
It slits you up– deep inside
It hits you here right between your eyes
It's somehow evil– red-hot and weird
A dangerous feeling– you never want it
It turns you inside out
Don't know why I can't beat it
It feels like burning steel
It sounds like grinding metal sheets
Metal eater– it always gets you
Metal eater– money eating murder slot machine– metal eater
If you would know– how to stop
But you're hooked to the bandits for your life
And as you see it– it's better than to run
But you're dead wrong– it's gonna kill ya
It's gonna smash you after all
Don't know why I can't beat it
It feels like burning steel
It sounds like grinding metal sheets
Metal eater– it always gets you
Metal eater– money eating murder slot machine– metal eater
Don't know why I can't beat it
It feels like burning steel
It sounds like grinding metal sheets
Metal eater– it always gets you
Metal eater– money eating murder slot machine– metal eater
Metal eater– with a smile it's gonna kill ya
Metal eater– money eating murder slot machine
Metal eater– burning steel– it's somehow evil
Metal eater– no one stops the money eating murder slot machine
6. Protectors Of Terror
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
They're in the business of illusion
An empire built on pain
The Almighty's inquisition
They're a fire burning out of controll
A thousand years of praying
Of faith, morality
A thousand years of staying
Of terror in the name of cross
Will you pray – will you cry
Thou shalt not bear false witness
When brothers in faith
Turn to brothers in arms
Thou shalt not make unto thee
any graven images
How many more have to die
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
You pay for your salvation
You have to bend your knees in pain
No surrender to temptation
You're a slave to the eye of the Lord
Will you pray – will you cry
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy
God in vain
When brothers in faith
Turn to brothers in arms
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's oxen
How many more have to die
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
– they are protectors
They are protectors of terror
Fear not those who dare to treed
upon the ashes of the chosen ones
They will drink the spillage of the blood
Behind closed doors the darkest
one prepares his altar of death
They are protectors
– will you pray – will you cry
Of terror
– when brothers in faith turn
to brothers in arms
They are protectors
– hom many more have to die
Laws carved in stone are rewritten in blood
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
– they are protectors
They are protectors of terror
They are protectors of terror
7. Animal House
Morning is breaking with death on the street
Driving downtown in a red corvette
The daemons and satans are creeping around
LA nights are madhouse nights
The murderers– are heroes
They're speeding all over the town
And justice– is drunken
I'm tumbling upside down
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
Living in an animal house
Rockers in concert are serving the bible
Praying in public is getting a habit
For selling out everything seems to be right, oh yeah
The sunset is crowded with tramps passing out
They're sleeping– in trash cans
There's witchcraft in everyone's eyes
Satans and daemons
All dressed up in suits and ties
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
Madman– going crazy– living in an animal house
I'm a madman...
8. Turn Me On
I can't wait to get you
Down on the dirty floor
I know it ain't a place
But come on and close the door
I'm coming down for pleasure
For bradgames all night long
Yes, indeed, I wanna have it now
All what you've gotta give
I'm coming to the point – where I can't hold myself
You shouldn't hold it back – it has to be done
Please, turn me on, turn me on, I can't hold it
Please, turn me on, turn me on, I explode
Can't hold it back
It would be good to do in the nice way
But sorry, I ain't got no time
I know you would like some light
But sorry, here is no lamp
So, please don't stop the feeling
Please, come close to me
I've gotta feel your hand
To bring it to an and
I'm coming to the point – where I can't hold myself
You shouldn't hold it back – it has to be done
Please, turn me on, turn me on, I can't hold it
Please, turn me on, turn me on, I explode
Can't hold it back
Baby, that was a hot lick
But someone's banging the door
Believe me, I'm sorry to stop you
But I'm coming back for more
It was more than I could ask for
Sorry babe, I've gotta go
Guess, there's more than two now
Who wants to break the door
Please babe, I've gotta go
You have been really good
I know you want some more
But, what can I do – let's go ahead
Please, turn me on, turn me on
9. Drum Solo
10. T.V. War
T.V. war is part of life
Entertaining and far, far away
What a story and how they fight
Let's gamble and guess who will win
Danger is nowhere
We still got the chance to switch off
Remote control and the guarantee
It's somewhere else
T.V. war – T.V. war
Bloodless but deadly and cruel
T.V. war – T.V. war
We are eating, while we're watching
People die on the screen
Toasted and roasted and scrambled and fried
We are greedy and pay
Information – in between
Missiles are in the air
You can hear them and see
They're already here
T.V. war – T.V. war
Bloodless but deadly and cruel
T.V. war – T.V. war
Oh, yeah !
According to informed sources
Of the defence ministry:
There is now confirmation
That enemy missiles have penetrated our airspace
Impact is estimated in a matter of minutes
Good evening !
T.V. war – T.V. war
Bloodless but deadly and cruel
T.V. war – T.V. war
Bloodless but deadly and cruel
T.V. war – T.V. war
11. No Limits
One life – never been a riddle
Black nights – live it to the max
It's all extremely done
No way – to colonise the middle
Ride hard – desperadoes at your back
Under a blood red sun
In this world – up to us
We stand or we fall – yeah
We got no limits – no hideaway
We got no limits – live today
We got no limits – the way to stay
We got no limits – no limits all the way
Gear up – life is what we make it
Rock hard – shaft it to the top
We've only just begun
Sun's up – we're gonna do some shakin'
Break out – we give it all we got
Make way 'cause here we come
In this world we decide
To answer the call – yeah
Power'n'riches'n'rank
Mean nothing at all
Render the game to the end
Once and for all – once and for all – yeah
We got no limits – no hideaway
We got no limits – live today
We got no limits – the only way to stay
We got no limits
Ev'rybody live the life
12. Run If You Can
Run on up, run on down
Be a step ahead in time
Don't you stop to look in his eyes
He wants your soul, he wants your mind
He'll tear you apart
He'll rip you asunder
Stretch your mind, so look out
Hearts must break, hearts must bleed
When you heed the demon's call
Death is near, light is the speed
Flashing out "just kill them all"
Eat out your heart
Dark master of thunder
Lord of darkness and doubt
Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive
Ooh, when it is all over
You've surrendered to the night
Out of the day, knowning no way
Deadly is the demon's night
All you know
Is a real world, real men
Love – what they need, it's gone
Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive
Hearts must break, hearts must bleed
When you heed the demon's call
Death is near, light is the speed
Flashing out "just kill them all"
Eat out your heart
Dark master of thunder
Lord of darkness and doubt
Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive
And he's alive
Run ...
13. Winter Dreams
There's snow on the mountain
And fog in the street
Flickering candles in the room
Hear the church bell ring
See the children playing
I feel their pure delight
And the snow is falling
Taking me away
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Reflecting the sound of my heart
It's my taste of freedom
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Don't try to tear me apart – cold winter dreams
Find myself in peace
Warm from underneath
Wish you would be here
In this magic scene
I've escaped from reality
Dancing in the snow
Cold blue sky gives me
The innocence I need
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Freezing the heat in my heart
It's my taste of freedom
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Chill me and tear me apart – cold winter dreams
The world seems so clear
Like a wonderful diamond
Can't imagine there's meanness
Can't imagine one lie
But when I'm dead and gone
And snow's pouring down
I'm buried and covered
Peaceful under millions of stars
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Reflecting the sound of my heart
It's my taste of freedom
Cold winter nights, cold winter dreams
Don't try to tear me apart – cold winter dreams
14. In The Darkness
Why am I here now
What have I done
Running on empty– I got nowhere to run
Can't get an answer
Can't get it right
Just try to make it
'till the end of the night
Is there a way to avoid doing wrong
Lead me away from the darkness
Light up my day show me where I belong
Please don't leave me all alone in the darkness
Far in the distance
There is night, there is day
Sounds are waving nets of dismay
Sometimes I'm stuck in a shocking delay
Like in a slow motion movie
I'm reaching out for something to hold
Life slips away in the cold– in the cold
My heart is so cold– my heart is so cold
Why was I turned down
What's going on
I wish there was something that could have been done
How can I get there
Where is the light
How can I make it
'till the end of the night
How can I turn darkness to light
Leaving my fear in the darkness
Is there a way how can I overcome
My restless night's and my fear– and my fear
In the darkness– in the darkness– in the darkness
15. Like A Loaded Gun
I'm victimized and tantalized
Brutalized and chained
They'll devastate – intoxicate
They're driving me insane – forever
They regulate – investigate
Complicate my life
Everyday insanity
There's nothing going right –
I mean forget it
I've been there before
Can't take it no more
That's why I'm like a loaded gun
A man with a mission
Like a loaded gun
I'm human ammunition
They mutilate and penetrate
They masturbate my brains
When all I need for sanity
Is love to ease my pain
I'm tortured, sick and tired
I'm that weapon to be fired
Overloaded – unexploded
Don't you make me cross the final line
I've been there before
I can't take it no more
That's why I'm like a loaded gun
I'm a man with a mission
Like a loaded gun
You can pull my trigger
Just like a loaded gun
On a social collision
See my eyes – I mesmerize
Read my lips – it's time to cut the crap
I've been there before
I can't take it no more
That's why I'm like a loaded gun
A man with a mission
Like a loaded gun
I'm human ammunition
Like a loaded gun
On a social collision
Like a loaded gun
I'm ready to explode –
like a loaded gun
16. Recall The Sin
Many years ago
My heart and soul was full of fire
Breaking heads – hit and run
And the sun was brighter
So wild and reckless
Cared about no law and order
We used to ram – the black and whites
They called a six-one-niner
Those were my glory days
Just bad-boys-crazy-ways
My wild-man-holy-times
I always shot on sight
And I recall the sin
And I recall the sin
In many sleepless nights
I found the dream I'm missing
Kicking ass – living fast
Been living in a prison
Time to change the colours
Sweep away the madness
Here I come – back for good
Say good-bye to sadness
17. Break The Rules
Everything is wrong, yet they all deny it
But the time will come, when they can't hide it
Somebody says hey man– what's up with you
I say "just make way" cause I'm sick of you
Sick 'n tired of no good two faced liars
Buck here– buck there, that's their sole desire
Leaders always put your life in fear
I don't wanna see the world disappear
You got to burn it up– burn it up tonight
Cause the time has come for us– to put it right
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules– break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
No good thinking you don't have the power
Cause it's coming soon it's gonna be our finest hour
All I do is smile because I've been thru this before
I know just how to play this game– I'm kicking down your door
You got to burn it up– burn it up tonight...
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules– break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules– break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
You gotta break the rules...
18. Midnight Highway
Out I started, late tonight
Blinded by the light
Strangest feelin' I have know
Don't know what's wrong or right
See the people, clubs and bars
Streetlife passin' by yeah
Screamin' engine, burnin' gas
I'm on overdrive
Danger, danger, save your soul
The finger's writin' on the wall
Where you are the angels are blind
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
Midnight sky is bright and clear
New moon on the right
All at once, risin' haze
The freeway is my life
I'm on a high, spacin' out
Where I'm goin' I don't care
Can't you see, this is me
An indestructable boy
Danger, danger, save your soul
The finger's writin' on the wall
Where you are the angels are blind
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
I'm all right
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, on a never ending highway
19. Heaven Is Hell
We swear it on the bible
If wanted on the Koran
It's always good for trouble
To have a holy ghost
We have made the decision
There is forgiveness, if you need
But this is not in this world
You have to wait and wait
There is no – no other way
You can't just believe what you want
No other way – no no
You can read it in the book, what's good or bad
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth, oh yes it is
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth, oh yeah
You shouldn't kill your brother
Except if he doesn't know what's right
If he can't love your heaven
Ah, it's a mercy for him to die
And that it's so much better
Than to live without redemption
This is easy to do so
And you can read how it works
All you need – is the holy ghost
Oh, he will comfort you
No other way – no no
That's how they're cheating you
And make believe what's good or bad
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth, is it heaven or hell
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth
Down on earth, oh yes it is
Is it heaven or hell
I'm sure we all know them
Those perverts, they're everywhere
Mmh, we're talking straight about facts
You know deep inside what's right or wrong
And the world stinks, and the paradise is now a sewer
And they sell shit for gold
And you have to take what you've got
Heaven is never in heaven –
and hell is down on earth
Heaven is there where hell is –
and hell is down on earth
Hahaha, heaven is never in heaven –
and hell is down on earth
Heaven is there where hell is –
and hell is down on earth
Heaven is never in heaven –
and hell is down on earth
Heaven is there where hell is –
and hell is down on earth
Hahahaha
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth, oh yes it is
Heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth
Oh, don't you think that heaven is there where hell is
And hell is down on earth, tell me is it heaven or hell
Heaven is there where hell is
And heaven is down on earth, hahaha
20. Monster Man
Screaming just for mercy
I am no monster man
Knowing makes you guilty
Not free of any faults
I see a hot, hot fighting
On controversial sides
They call me mercy killer
'cause I did it right
For love I gave your fading life
For love I had to give you up
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Dead or alive, dead or alive
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Facing all the trouble
I still remember our nights
And we're swearing both to free us
When life is only pain
For love I had to give you up
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Dead or alive, dead or alive
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Monster man
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Dead or alive, dead or alive
I am no monster man – mercy or crime
Dead or alive, dead or alive
I am no monster man....
21. Living On A Frontline
Bad days are coming
Back into my head
They're looking for trouble, is that alright
You know you've seen them before
And now they're turning
Into the deepest nights
Shadows on the wall – don't surrender at all
You're not alone this time
Do or die – you'll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time – rain or shine
Aces high – you'd better be on the ball
Don't move outta the way – stand for what you've gotta say
We're living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
We're living on a frontline
It's much more than enough this time
We're living on a frontline
Now you start searching
For a better life
Better not look back – go straight ahead
Just be yourself all the time
Do or die – you'll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time – rain or shine
Aces high – you'd better be on the ball
Don't move outta the way – stand for what you've gotta say
We're living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
We're living on a frontline
It's much more than enough this time
We're living – living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
We're living on a frontline
It's much – it's much too much this time
Go ahead this time
Ah, we're living on a frontline
Ah, it's a bad game
I've told you before
So stay away from the frontline
And your friends next door
You say you're lonely
But I don't want them no more
But one day – you're gonna see
They're gonna disappear
We're living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
We're living on a frontline
It's much more than enough this time
We're living – living on the frontline
Always trying not to go
We're living on a frontline
It's much – it's much too much this time
On a frontline
22. Heart Of Gold
He is a man forced to live with the rats
But he is dying for a smile from you
He is a man without a home in his life
Is that a reason to walk on the line
It's like a game – don't mess around
Don't be a fool so just go on
No life of double standard what he's looking for
Only a dream of tender delight
No more a bloody fool in this dirty town
So get away take your own line

Please be strong for just one time

Sweet little a heart of gold

Sweet little a heart of gold
23. Shout It Out
Why are you so frightened – we're getting in the mood
Body breaking volume – we are loud and rude
Laser piercing lighting – megasonic sound
The first day of your lesson – upheaval in the ground
We're forging straight ahead now – it's not a dream
Never ever lose the power – we're as hard as steel
Don't you feel the fire – the burning in your soul
Just come and join the fantasy – it will make you free
So cut the crap out – it's for you
Feel so damn proud – of this rocking crew
We'll break the world down – tear up all the rules
Reality is clear now – the future is for you
So shout it out – just let it out
So shout it out – as loud as you can
So shout it out – just let it out
So shout it out – as loud as we all can
Now's the final showdown – it's time to be released
Our weapons are so deadly – we're armed up to the teeth
Electrostatic soundwaves – you cannot hide
Gonna execute our metal shock – straight between the eyes
Shout – shout – shout – shout
Shout – shout – shout – shout
24. Cut Me Out
Night after night
Day after day
Hours and seconds to go
Dying of fright
Nothing to say
I've got no money to show
Picking at the bits and pieces of this puzzle game
Educated reasons why I have to wear this shame
Hey you – cut me out
Come back – and put my money down
Hey you – what have I done to you
Don't – don't spread the news around
Dreams in my sleep
Are tales from the cards
I see the final countdown
Reptiles that creep
Pushing me hard
Making me go one more round
Just another night – begging for mercy
What can I do – pleading 'n' searching
In the night
25. I'm A Rebel
They say I won't make it to the top of the hill
Won't take the fruit off the tree
And ev'rybody says I'm out for the kill
They're all laughing at me
They're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel – rebel – don't you just know it
I'm a rebel – rebel
And they're all laughing at me
They say I'm a danger to the public and all
I only wish they would see
I'm just the product of a screwed up world – but they're all
They're all laughing at me
But they're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel – rebel – don't you just know it
I'm a rebel – rebel – don't you just know it
I'm a rebel – rebel
But' they're all laughing at me
Never ever was my old blue jeans
And brush the smile off my face
But still I'm a member of the
Human race – Human race – Human race – Human race
26. They Want War
They are young and they're kids
and believe what they see
To do what they've been told
And so they walk away with open eyes
Some are eight or nine or ten
And they die like a fly, and no one knows
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
See their eyes open wide
They died before they ever cried
They die in the streets and they die in the fields
When they do what they've been told
But now they're lying dead
Their eyes are closed
Some are eight or nine or ten
And they die like a fly and no one knows
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
See their eyes open wide, they died before they ever cried
Who taught them how, how to pray
Who told them they're in paradise when they're gonna die
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war...
You're gonna pay the price, you little devil in disguise
For taking life with no regard, you'll go to hell
And there you'll burn
Children in the battlefield, please don't go
Little birds with fluttering hearts, please don't go
