On a cold winter morning, in a time before the light In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight When the darkness has fallen down and the times are tough alright The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore The scattered souls will feel the hell, bodies wasted on the shores On the blackest plains in hell's domain we watch them as they go In fire, pain and once again we know So now we fly ever free, we're free before the thunderstorm On towards the wilderness our quest carries on Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight Deep inside our hearts and all our souls! So far away, we wait for the day For the lives all so wasted and gone We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days Through the fire and the flames we carry on As the red day is dawning and the lightning cracks the sky We'll raise our hands to the heavens above, with resentment in their eyes Running back from the mid morning light with a burning in my heart We're banished from a time in a fallen land to a life beyond the stars In your darkest dreams see to believe our destiny this time And endlessly we'll all be free tonight And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality All alone in desperation, now the time has come Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind Day after day this misery must go on So far away, we wait for the day For the lives all so wasted and gone We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days Through the fire and the flames we carry on [Solos: Twin/Sam/Twin/Herman/Twin/Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam] Now here we stand with their blood on our hands We fought so hard now can we understand? I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can For freedom of every man! So far away, we wait for the day For the lives all so wasted and gone We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days Through the fire and the flames we carry on! (Note: although it shows ''we'll raise our hands to the heaven above'' in the official booklet, this is likely a printing error. In the actual song, ''they'll raise their hands'' can be heard.)

Flying over darkened skies the battle will call Distant angels crying in the eye of the storm And the world falls under the starlight Shining from heavens below Long years of pain and sorrow searching for more Cry for the touch of angels never before And the stars fall on the horizon Onwards and up through the pain Ride the wind and fight the demon Steel shining bright Standing together forever onwards Flames burning strong Hot wind in hell of pain and sorrow now and never onwards We stare into the dawn of a new world! Cry out for the fallen heroes Lost in time ago In our minds they still belong When the sands of time are gone Rise over shadow mountains blazing with power! Crossing valleys endless tears in unity we stand Far and wide across the land the victory is ours On towards the gates of reason Fight for the truth and the freedom, Gloria! Searching through the memories to open the door Living on the edge of life like never before And the ground chants under the moonlight Facing their fears all the same Heavens fear now open wide and up for the call All in stark reality the angels will fall And the world cries out for the silence Lost in the voices unknown Blinded by the force of evil cries into the night Never before have they seen the darkness Now they are all gone Out from the shadows storming on the wings of revelations Your soul will feel no mercy come the dawn Hold on for the morning after Never to let go In the fires burning strong When the tides of time roll on Rise over shadow mountains blazing with power Crossing valleys endless tears in unity we stand Far and wide across the land the victory is ours On towards the gates of reason Fight for the truth and the freedom, Gloria [Solos: Herman/Twin/Sam/Herman/Twin/Twin Blast/Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam]

Bursting through the fires avenging Fatal warning battles are raging Power of darkness rise for the fight We'll be strong and stand our ground Death is all around us and my heart is beating weaker Fight the day with power of immortal souls arise Fire in our hearts the evil rages on forever more Burning until the battle rage is gone Through damnation we rise, sign of the times Master of bleeding eyes Thunder on high, look to the sky You never gonna take us down! And we will crush the evil standing On the temple in the fire storming Fly beyond the lost horizons high! Heroes of the night are calling See the promised land is falling Reaching for the powers deep inside On through the night Blinded by the fate and desire Burning in your heart like a fire Challenging all the suffer and fear Our horizons take control Blood spills all around us and our enemies draw nearer Sacrifice your life to have them carry you away Take us to the place of death and carry on forever more Burning on the dreams of memories long gone! And you'll die for your crimes, sign of the times Master of endless lies Fight to the end, now we ascend Together we will take them down! And we will crush the evil standing On the temple in the fire storming Fly beyond the lost horizons high! Heroes of the night are calling See the promised land is falling Reaching for the powers deep inside On through the night [Solos: Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam]

Smashing through the boundaries Storming through the burning fields Stand before the evil one On towards the morning sun Falling under skies of pain Still we're searching endlessly Crashing over seven seas Torturing the winter skies, riding over plains of ice Shadows in the fields of the slain! Crashing steel and raging fury Smash the quest, destroy their army! Crush the legions of the twilight Templars of steel will burn! Cry far away as we reach for the day Blasting our way through the punishment and the pain Reach for the world as the sky begins to fall Rising through the darkened ashes praying that I'll see you all Far away will our eyes now see the day For today, the everlasting eternal sun Washed away the dreams of a brighter day Forever hold the dream inside The chance to fight another fight The breaking hearts that stand for all our lives Live tonight Watch you die, I watch you die inside While fear controls your life And reject this animosity that killed so many minds You feel the power deep within the fear you hold inside Just to find the reason for the treason Now you will be mine Screams of pain in death descending Rise again from hell, defending Burn their hearts within the fire Warriors of light will be slain Rise through the pain like the sun will rise again Day after the day but the memories never change Stand before the storm as the lost horizon falls Blinded by the vision and the innocence of our souls Far away will our eyes now see the day? For today, the everlasting eternal sun Washed away the dreams of a brighter day Forever hold the dream inside The chance to fight another fight The breaking hearts that stand for all our lives Live tonight [Solos: Sam/Herman/Sam] Woah... [Solo: Herman]

Silent screams and shattered dreams Of what we left at seventeen Still lost within the misery and pain that lies inside Here alone the fight to breath, still searching for the truth to be Blackened by the burning fire held deep inside my mind Far beyond the lost horizon standing on the shore Across the seas their hearts will bleed this life we're waiting for Taste the steel in pain you kneel, for glory we defend Our fallen souls will rise to fight again! Stay here with me, this night we'll be together Future in our hands, we'll fight with freedom drawing near Stand here with me for we will live forever Tonight, we stand and face it all Falling rain will hide the pain that lies beneath the burning flames All hope is gone, so carry on before the world will fall Rise again to die in vain now life can never be the same Our own salvation drawing nearer, hear the darkness call! Skies are falling, thunder storming, stand before the world We're banished now to barren wastelands, fight the demon whore Riding on through blackened darkness, cross the endless sands We sail away, our victory at hand! Stay here with me, together we'll be stronger Side by side we've conquered lands and stormed across the seas Die here with me, we feel this pain no longer For now, and ever we will be In my heart, in my soul, I am out of control Fly across the mountains and towards the distant sun Tears evermore, we cry life before Feel the breakdown of my body Set me free [Solo: Sam] [Instrumental Bridge] [Solos: Herman/Sam] [Super Bridge] [Solos: Sam/Vadim/Herman] In my heart, in my soul, I am out of control Fly across the mountains and towards the distant sun Tears evermore, we cry life before Feel the breakdown of my body Set me free

Falling from the sky now, the sign of the burning sun Into the face of the evil one Nowhere to hide now we're on the run, right before your eyes We're watching, we're waiting, our souls are forsaken The sign of the warriors, the evil will rise Through the fire and the flames, breaking the chains Into the night we go Torment and pain, trample the slain Soldiers of death we know Our steel will shine forever through the night and blinding rain We'll see them face their fears, it's time to rise again In everlasting pain! Fly free for what we believe One thousand hearts bleeding the eternal dream Feel me, the touch we all need So silently now we will kneel Cry for eternity! So now the fallen will live again They feel the pain burn inside of them Remember now what you feel again deep down inside Still cursing, still crawling, we're endlessly falling The downfall of mankind, the fate of us all Hold your hands to the sky, bleed and you cry Screaming until we know Dying in pain, again and again Onwards to hell below! Stand strong we'll live together raging through the barren lands Our eyes have seen the sorrow far across the sands The power in our hands! Fly free for what we believe One thousand hearts bleeding the eternal dream Feel me, the touch we all need So silently now we will kneel Cry for eternity! [Solos: Sam/Sam/Sam/Herman/Herman] Fly far away to the end of our days The voices of long distant cries Now we remain in this labyrinth of pain And so we ride into the night [Solos: Sam/Herman]

Close your eyes, hear the thunder and rain Fear inside of the torturing pain For the cries of the world and the last lives remain Chain your heart, swear to the for their gain Deep inside slowly fading away And the last breath remains, and the fear turns to rage! Locked in a world by the fallen evil souls Torn right apart for your life insane Burning in my mind now to bring my life to hold Reach out and die in the flames See through the lies and their ever staring eyes Now is the time to defend your ground Destiny will call to remind us all now Fly free so far from here this life we now will end In dreams of everlasting pain the fallen now rise again Through the fire, through the flames, like the sun will rise again Lost in time, lost in space, to the end of all their days See their endless ways, insanity The quest deranged, not meant to be In flames will now forever burn, eternally So free your heart, leave your life far behind In the cold of winter skies escape the pain inside Now feel your soul lost in seas of all eternity Every day this life defending, and the flames of youth not ending In a lifetime, searching, we must fight through the eternal pain So alone in a world far away Memories of a dream will remain As the world falling calls and our lives all in vain Fire in my soul will forever rise again Nothing in my mind to remember now Broken by the fear of the dark night calling Ride free on endless seas, the final curtain falls Cut the ground from down below The time to lock and to load Through the fire, through the rain, far across the distant plains Feel the wind beneath the steel, as your mind becomes insane Save the pain from all humanity That rides throughout our destiny For freedom now we rise for all again So free your heart, leave your life far behind In the cold of winter skies escape the pain inside Now feel your soul lost in seas of all eternity Every day this life defending, and the flames of youth not ending In a lifetime, searching, we must fight through the eternal pain [Solos: Herman/Sam/Herman/Vadim/Herman/Sam] So free your heart, leave your life far behind In the cold of winter skies, escape the pain inside And when the memories are all but left behind And the days have gone forever, lost within my mind Now feel your soul burn in seas of all eternity Every day this life defending, and the flames of youth not ending In a lifetime, searching, we must fight through the eternal pain

Here we are, far beyond the distant sky Seen all the world and how the story will be over Through the snow and tainted mountains we have climbed Now we have found the light that guides us over Through the falling rain we traveled far and wide And through the blackest darkness, stars above shining bright Through the sun and winter rain will fall All our lives we all were waiting for a sign to call We're walking hand in hand in dreams of endless time How do we know when we will leave this life behind? Stare at life through eyes of mine The hate, the fear and the pain There's a feeling held deep inside When life you live is in vain Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday We close our eyes to see the light of brighter days And all alone we'll be where time can never heal With the trail of broken hearts flying free Once again we walk this lonely road There are times that we were wading through the rain and cold We're lost in memories of what we left behind Relive the dreams, the endless screams of pain inside Lives are filled with emptiness The fear returns once again Searching endlessly, now we will see Drown your mind in the pain Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday We close our eyes to see the light of brighter days And all alone we'll be where time can never heal With the trail of broken hearts flying free The last temptation will be all that's left for me When I see those tears you cried When I hear those lies you lied When I feel all creation now falling down on me Is this the reason to be? [Solos: Sam/Herman/Sam] Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday We close our eyes to see the light of brighter days And all alone we'll be where time can never heal With the trail of broken hearts flying free

Spending all our lives on what we believe in Struggle day by day but never retrieving Taking our chances and follow the footsteps Ancestors will take us to this fight At the time it was blistering snowing Never really know about where we were going Time is coming now to cross over Here and now until the curtain lowers Slaying all the evil down below Onwards we ride now not to what we know Strong enough to stay and carry on forever Brace your soul to fight whenever Never know how far we travelled We will have our stand Across the deepest oceans Gold is in our hands Good things will come for those Who wait, we can't deny Still the battle raging And the fire burns inside Take you with me, we will fly across the sea To the land of the sun where our journeys begun All fear is gone, we sail to the dawn Deepest fears will burn inside your mind For the souls lost in endless time Searching never ending for the chaos ascending You forgot the spirits all times pretending Passing shades of darkness in the world around you Finally insanity In death has found you On the edge of life trying to pull you under Deep inside the storm there's a raging thunder Sacrifice your innocence for persecution As we now prepare for the revolution Slaying all the evil down below Onwards we ride now to what we know Strong enough to stay and carry on forever Brace your soul to fight whenever In a time of fire we're searching Blind inside the mind Run away to hell's damnation One day we will find Suddenly the skies are falling Too late for us all Crashing down on all creation As the towers fall Take you with me, we will fly across the sea To the land of the sun where our journeys begun All fear is gone, we sail to the dawn Deepest fears will burn inside your mind For the souls lost in endless time Stand before the words of freedom Rise above the war Ride towards the battle raging Victory behold Blackened steel of death tonight Our legions now descend Far beyond the gates of glory Time to rise again Take you with me, we will fly across the sea To the land of the sun where our journeys begun All fear is gone, we sail to the dawn Deepest fears will burn inside your mind Take you with me, we will fly across the sea To the land of the sun where our journeys begun All fear is gone, we sail to the dawn Deepest fears will burn inside your mind For the souls lost in endless time For the souls lost in endless time, woooaah For the souls lost in endless time
