Music: Mikael Dahl - Lyrics: Dahl, Götesson I've found a way back to my home at last A way that has been locked and cloaked until now It’s time to take care of my programmed past, find the answers, and then finally fulfil my vow Pre Chorus: I've learned from my ship’s secret files that they planned my unwanted exile! I knew too much about their insane plan I had to leave, from the Earth I was banned Chorus: For years I have travelled in the dark and endless space, cast out from the human race For vengeance I’m yearning now as I’m returning to make my wrongdoers pay for my lonely days Revenge! Imperfect data I got from below, but I’ve learned enough from my unknown friend They sent me away so their empire could grow On Terra my vengeance shall descend Pre Chorus: Chorus: Solo: Both Bridge: I’m burning of hatred and rage, for their lies and my time lost in space I'll end the Interstellar War, and disclose their plans of the human race Chorus: Revenge will be mine!
A wind of hatred is blowing across the field I am the voice of the Clans The leader of the Highlands and we have come here for blood and victory Pre Chorus: Before my army I speak the great words of war: Brothers, they may take our lives but they’ll never take away our freedom Chorus: Scotland! I hear you call my name, now as we ride towards our aim England! I damn you as I cry: Pay for the blood on the Highlands and die! You took my father's life You raped and killed my wife In God's name I swear I'll get my revenge The great rebellion I bring will slay you and your foul king I am the legend, the brave, the proud, your fate Pre Chorus: The last words are spoken, now hear them roar in the wind: Brothers, they may take our lives but they’ll never take away our freedom Chorus: Solo: Both, Dahl, Nyberg Bridge: We may loose the battle We may loose some men But still we have showed the world that no one can take away our freedom Chorus:

A little child has changed our world A light in the dark, a miracle Forevermore her spirit will illuminate our lives With open arms and open minds we make her one of our kind In unity we now welcome her with our song Chorus: Spread your wings and fly, we will take you high Child of Rock You were born and bound to the Heavy sound Child of Rock Trust us when we say: Take the Metal way! Solo: Dahl Life is too short to throw away Don’t waste no time, live here and today There may be tears along the way, but we’ll be here for you There is no right, there is no wrong What you will need is in our song The Only Rule is all for one and one for all Chorus: Solo: Nyberg, Dahl Bridge: When we're dead and gone you'll have to carry on Show them that you're strong and always remember our song Chorus: Oh, oh, child you where born to rock Oh, oh, child you where born to rock Oh, oh, child you where born to rock Oh, oh, child you where born to rock We were all born to rock!

You think you're Messiah supreme, 'cause you write in a magazine But what's coming out of your head makes me wonder if your brain is dead You think everyone is a star just because they got a guitar Our music is not made for you, ‘cause ‘bout Metal you don't have a clue Pre Chorus: You live your life just to criticize, and sneak around to spread your lies Among the fools from the MTV you create a false reality Chorus: Hey Mr. Failure, face it We don't wanna read your bullshit Your words are fake, we want ‘em no more You’re a wannabe to the core Hey Mr. Failure, silence Because what you say is nonsense Now take this as a rule you damn pathetic fool Oh Mr. Failure, you can't see what it's about We've had enough, get out! and leave our ground once and for all You’re greasing the media machine, with vicious rumours of our scene You bring our band to your mill, and you grind us just for the thrill The sick brain of yours never rest, always plan for what you do best: Oppress, provoke, irritate, ridicule, humiliate Pre Chorus: Chorus: Solo: Both Bridge: You say you do not like our sound, but we do not care, just leave our ground Heavy Metal is what we play no matter what you say Now hear our song and obey Chorus:

Across a hot and desert land Against the wind of dust and sand Reality seems so far away Under the burning mortal sun I find myself, the lonely one A stranger rushing blindly through the day Pre Chorus: Burning Horizon you are calling me Burning Horizon you will set me free Chorus: Once a hero, now a shade Chasing dreams that slowly fade On the endless road to nowhere I ride Once a proud man, now a ghost In search of peace from coast to coast From my dark and empty life I can not hide Don't know how many years have past, or how long this journey will last Tomorrow seems so far far away I am a madman on the run Yes, a lost forgotten son All I know's that I can not stay Pre Chorus: Chorus: Solo: Both, Dahl, Nyberg Bridge: Memories of pain hunt me everyday They're driving me insane. I can't find a way out of this hell Someone please tell. Why did it all go wrong? And tell me where, just where do I belong? Let me find a place to stay Chorus:

The look of disbelief is still in your face as I watch how your eyes begin to glaze Your broken body lies in a growing pool of blood… I have betrayed you, you sorry old fool But to have your Art makes it worth this crime, and your former knowledge will soon be mine In my hands I now hold your Grand Grimoire, the source of your once great might and arcane lore Pre Chorus: How many times have I not cursed these pages? It feels like I’ve been reading for ages But I can not give up, I have to be patient ‘cause your book contains the Art of the Ancient Chorus: Soon your magic will lie in my hands Every spell, powerful and grand, of the greatest Art are going to be known to me And then, my friend, I will no longer be… the wizard’s apprentice Solo: Dahl I have found the key. How could I be so blind? With the right phrase and the right state of mind the power explodes in me, burning deep inside The Art engulfs me in a roaring magic tide Pre Chorus: For how many years have I not yearned and craved for this? It feels like I have reached eternal bliss And it does not matter much that my soul is stained by your death, compared to what I have gained Chorus: Now your magic lies in my hands Every spell, powerful and grand, of the greatest Art are now finally known to me And no more, my friend, will I ever be… the wizard’s apprentice Solo: Both Bridge: I am divine, pure energy The Ancient’s power flows in me But it’s to much for my mind to sustain With a sudden burst of pain all magic’s scorched from my brain, and I realise that all have been in vain My Art is forever gone! Solo: Nyberg, Dahl Chorus: So now my magic’s no more My Art is gone, my precious lore has forever been burned away from my very core And now I am neither the Master Mage nor the wizard’s apprentice …just a common man

Hey Metalhead! It's time to wake the dead Step out of the shade, and join the great crusade I’ll be your guide on this glory ride, and you will be my crowd. United, strong and loud Pre Chorus: It's in our hearts, souls and blood forever, and nobody can change it. No never! Since the day we where born, we've been bound to its powerful sound Chorus: Heavy Metal – Is our sound Heavy Metal – Is our ground Heavy Metal – Heavy Metal Come join the Metal Crusade Solo: Dahl Fist in the air, I see them everywhere Now they have to see what has got to be Screaming guitars heading for the stars It’s time to let it out, so raise your voice and shout!

It’s the birthday of the Emperor The cream of the realm is here, kings and queens with sons and daughters It’s truly a most grandiose ball, nobles fill the halls Like sheep, ready for slaughter Pre Chorus: Oh, with rising hate I watch them dance, I watch them prance Oh, how I loathe these haughty swines I’ll rid the world of this living grime Chorus: Peasants are saying, oh not without glee, there’s an aristocrat out on a killing spree A noble, thirsty for royal blood they say The Beast in Velvet I’m called by my prey Though my fee is great indeed I’d do this for free, ‘cause I enjoy my work immensely Pre Chorus: Chorus: Bridge 1: With wit and grace I charm these fools who think they’re out of harm’s way None here’s aware of my sins But then again, who’d suspect a highborn prince? Solo: Both, Dahl, Both Bridge 2: It’s been so easy to lure my prey, so to my Lord I gratefully pray as my victim dies by my blade Shape shifting is a useful trick in my dark trade Chorus:

There's a mountain by the northern sea High and mighty like an endless tower A tempting and majestic sight with a treacherous secret There's a legend ‘bout its mystery and it speaks about a tremendous power A creation of the Gods and a gate to Heaven Pre Chorus: At night you see the light that will invite the fearless to the summit Climb and you will find yourself behind the walls of ancient stone Chorus: Lost souls in the mountain's grave Not dead or alive, just forgotten Trapped in the adventurers' cave All condemned to languish in darkness, silence and madness Forever paying the price in the heart of the mountain In a dream you saw the land of gold, as the mountain tempted in a vision Where the angels spread their wings there’s where you'll find your freedom To the glorious dream your soul was sold To find the house of God became your mission So you left your past behind, and now you're heading for the sky Pre Chorus: Chorus: Solo: Both, Dahl, Nyberg By the light at the summit you are turned to stone Chorus:

When darkness enters my life, that's when you arise Slowly crawling into my mind from the other side In a callous realm, I'm captured, completely paralysed Through your eyes I see the real world, where love and hate have died Pre Chorus: I'm terrified, but somehow I have always known We are nothing but wandering spirits in an endless void Chorus: On the edge of time I face my destiny, and find myself within a false reality Was my life a lie inside an evil whirl? Oblivion reign within the Visionary World, forever Solo: Dahl Bridge: Lifeless, impassive and alone Dreaming a dream that's not my own Am I alive or dead? When did they conquer our kind? Why did they take control of our minds? My past is erased and gone I'm lost in a cage Created in the age of silence and illusions Chorus:
