Candles burning, the hours turning a countdown the day that we’re born. Don’t look backwards, keep driving forwards. The rose withers but not the thorns. If you want it then you can take it, just seize it before it’s too late And if all fails get back on your feet, there’s always another today but still we’ll... Pray for one last chance to prove we all belong through the dark nights and cold days, while time marches on. In this life, we’re running out of days, we’re running out of time, ignoring it’s a crime. No regrets, just one shot at glory is all we got before we die. Sands of time are slipping through our hands, so try and understand and do it while you can. Don’t look back, just one shot at glory is all it takes to feel alive. Anger rising relentless fighting but soon you’ll be finally free. Find your way through this endless maze be the one that you wanted to be. Pray for one last chance to prove we all belong through the dark nights and cold days, while time marches on. In this life, we’re running out of days, we’re running out of time, ignoring it’s a crime. No regrets, just one shot at glory is all we got before we die. Sands of time are slipping through our hands, so try and understand and do it while you can. Don’t look back, just one shot at glory is all it takes to feel alive. Fear not a twisted future, no matter what it brings Can’t you see now you’re all tomorrow’s kings Tomorrow's kings! Pray for one last chance to prove we all belong through the dark nights and cold days, while time marches on. In this life, we’re running out of days, we’re running out of time, ignoring it’s a crime. No regrets, just one shot at glory is all we got before we die. Sands of time are slipping through our hands, so try and understand and do it while you can. Don’t look back, just one shot at glory is all it takes to feel alive.

The light is shining Still I’m not so surprised One thousand voicemails For one thousand lies Blind faith – lost trust All along it was plain to see Years passed – lost touch Leads the path to insanity Take another shot Show me what you got It was never gonna last forever Open your eyes Try and realise Once is enough so tonight now I say No more! From a voice that breaks the awkward silence No more! Never heard so loud before Made the same mistakes a thousand times Never meant to be like this so I say No more tonight And it feels all right Dark nights – long passed Waking up from a pointless dream Brighter days – brighter times Hides the fatal reality Questions – answers False addiction to nothing real Lights fade – crushed to dust Desperation in tragedy Take another shot Show me what you got It was never gonna last forever Open your eyes Try and realise Once is enough so tonight now I say No more! From a voice that breaks the awkward silence No more! Never heard so loud before Made the same mistakes a thousand times Never meant to be like this so I say No more tonight And it feels all right No more Same old game we play together No more Time will pass we’ll still remember No more But tonight this game is over No more Strangers in the night forever No more! From a voice that breaks the awkward silence No more! Never heard so loud before Made the same mistakes a thousand times Never meant to be like this so I say No more tonight And it feels all right

Lost long ago through the ages of time Once ruled immortal, the guardians of light Bonded together they stood side by side Storm winds brought darkness – the world in decline Quest for the hammers to reclaim the throne Three brought together by warriors unknown United to vanquish all hell from the earth Conquering glory the kingdoms rebirth Raise your swords, sound the final war cry Stand! Fight! Fight got your lives! Thousands will die but their deaths not in vain Now reunited our world may be free once again Three hammers high, in the burning red sky Forged in the fire, protectors of mankind Three hammers high, for the world we unite Fight for our lives As we hold up the three hammers high Long have we travelled through forgotten lands From coldest valleys to burning red sands Restless we ride through the depths of all hell Triumph and agony – death will prevail Raise your swords, sound the final war cry Stand! Fight! Fight got your lives! Strike back with vengeance till death we defend Until the day that the dragons will rise once again Three hammers high, in the burning red sky Forged in the fire, protectors of mankind Three hammers high, for the world we unite Fight for our lives As we hold up the three hammers high Strike down the unbelievers March on for justice we now stand Once more the path for glory Take back the power in our hands Long years of terror and the long years of pain Still marching onwards will victory’s ours once again Victory’s ours once again! Three hammers high, in the burning red sky Forged in the fire, protectors of mankind Three hammers high, for the world we unite Fight for our lives As we hold up the three hammers high Three hammers high, in the burning red sky (woahhh!) Forged in the fire, protectors of mankind (high in the burning red sky!) Three hammers high, for the world we unite Fight for our lives As we hold up the three hammers high

Hiding in the fog Where darkness meets the moonlight I will sing your melody till the morning comes Living for you only Take my hand and show me There will be much sorrow When the morning comes Fearless I’m fighting the pain burns inside of me Find the forces of my soul No one can understand me Am I condemned to ride the blackest night alone Tragic painting on the walls In this castle where affliction reigns So many died in vain Hear their distant cries Never again! This is my symphony (my symphony) My Dark blessing falls from the skies I hear the voice Rising from the void Of the memories gone by Dark is the path for me I’ll find my peace another way Under the stars where we’ll shine again some day Torment and sadness unleashed through these corridors Fear is leading to the night Bloodline of vampires doomed to fulfill the need Once united by the light Father! Look into my eyes I shall kill you tonight to avenge All those who died in vain Hear their distant cries Never again! This is my symphony (my symphony) My Dark blessing falls from the skies I hear the voice Rising from the void Of the memories gone by Dark is the path for me I’ll find my peace another way Under the stars where we’ll shine again some day To the stars where we’ll shine again some day To the stars where we’ll shine again some day

Inception Death's guiding us the way We fight till the end Among the ruins Illusion Of brighter days ahead Through confusion and hatred, we try to understand In silence, we stand alone Caught in the eye A quest for life beneath a stormy sky The strength to rise again Time to realize Our race has come to nothing We'll start it all again The sun is dead now Fading away forever The darkness prevails now But with the prayers of the dead Now a new light ascends from the stars Confusion The sadness and the pain Matricide, the earth is now dead Remember the brighter days When hope and joy were shining in our hearts Times have changed now, we suffer yet try to understand In silence, we stand alone Caught in the eye The fragments of my past to realize It's time to rise again In the world's demise Our race has come to nothing We'll start it all again The sun is dead now Fading away forever The darkness prevails now But with the prayers of the dead Now a new light ascends from the stars The sun is dead now But in the end, what did we learn? The sun is dead now Fading away forever The darkness prevails now But with the prayers of the dead Now a new light ascends from the stars Now a new light ascends from the stars

Life's uncertain, a rat-race of pain Endlessly searching for more Hopeless and needless, held back by the chains 'Till we can't take anymore Hold on, stay strong Breaking out from the past life fading No more, what for All we got is to keep on praying Pray for the done for, the lives in dismay Witness the final decay Suffering in silence for years we were blind But, now we got something to say Hold on, Stay strong 'Till the end a fate of dying No more, what for Nothing left but to keep on fighting Pre-chorus: United, incited, not misguided We'll fight through time before our one true destiny Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided This day foretold now here for all to see Chorus So free in the blue skies with time marches on Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time Cursed in a kingdom of fire Legends of darkness will be on the grave Spill their blood under the sun Voices are calling with anger and rage The final war now has begun Hold on, stay strong 'Till the end, not afraid of dying No more, what for Nothing left but to keep on fighting Pre-chorus United, incited, not misguided We'll fight through time before our one true destiny Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided This day foretold now here for all to see So free in the blue skies with time marches on Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time Cursed in our kingdom a unholy fire Hear our call, save us all Standing tall tonight The flame will slowly fade away The shadows of our lives Will wash away the memories Before the last sunrise We'll keep holding on In the sands of changes Standing strong against the winds Until the end of time (Solo) Hold on, stay strong 'Till the end, not afraid of dying No more, what for Nothing left but to keep on fighting Pre-chorus United, incited, not misguided We'll fight through time before our one true destiny Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided This day foretold now here for all to see So free in the blue skies with time marches on Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time Cursed in a kingdom of unholy fire Hear our call, save us all Standing tall tonight (x2)

Her dream was to shine on the screen Felt that was why she was born Left all behind without a fear inside But sometimes there’s no lucky star to help you Sun will go down, and she’s all alone Can’t help but feel insecure She’ll never stop, the way to the top Is more than she bargained for Her quest for the glory was real But somehow it turned out all wrong Heartache was never a part of the dream Can’t find a reason to keep on trying Turn out the lights, cos deep in the night Just like the thousands before Hold up your hand, there’s hope at the end But be careful what you wish for Now the lights are all gone You find yourself on your own Welcome the night, cos not all the glitters is gold Now the city has gone You find your own way back home Keep up the fight, and you’ll find your kingdom of gold Another night out on the streets Finding a way to survive Wasting your chances destroying your dreams Counting the tears that you cried Hiding the pain that drives you insane But still you’re craving for more So give me your hand, hold on till the end And you can have what you wish for Now the lights are all gone You find yourself on your own Welcome the night, cos not all the glitters is gold Now the city has gone You find your own way back home Keep up the fight, and you’ll find your kingdom of gold Now the lights are all gone You find yourself on your own Welcome the night, cos not all the glitters is gold Now the lights are all gone You find yourself on your own Welcome the night, cos not all the glitters is gold Now the city has gone You find your own way back home Keep up the fight, and you’ll find your kingdom of gold

Go! Love is a burning thing And it makes a fiery ring Bound by wild desire And I fell into a great ring of fire And I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down as the flames were rising higher And it burns, burns, burns And it burns, burns, burns In a ring of fire The taste of love is sweet When hearts just like ours meet I fell for you like a child But I jumped right in as the fire went wild When I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down as the flames were rising higher And it burns, burns, burns, And it burns, burns, burns, In a ring of fire Go! Love is a burning thing And it makes a fiery ring I bound by wild desire And I fell into a great ring of fire And I fell into a burning ring of fire I went down, down, down as the flames were rising higher And it burns, burns, burns, And it burns, burns, burns, In a ring of fire

Emptiness, tears inside On the night before she died Strong the fire that burned so bright inside of me Through the years, through it all You touched my heart, you touched my soul Never gave up the fight, but tonight you'll be free (Oh oh! Oh oh!) All the tears in my own heart bidding (Oh oh! Oh oh!) But I want you to know... High the mountain we must climb, so far beyond the ocean's tide We're torn apart but soon we'll all be home And our hearts forever more entwined We'll save the night we said goodbye No matter where you are, you're not alone Long nights and a lonely cry Cold thoughts of a brighter time An empty picture in an empty frame Would you take me away? (Oh oh! Oh oh!) All the through my own eyes searing (Oh oh! Oh oh!) 'Till the end of our days... High the mountain we must climb, so far beyond the ocean's tide We're torn apart but soon we'll all be home And our hearts forever more entwined We'll save the night we said goodbye No matter where you are, you're not alone (Oh oh! Oh oh!) (Oooh ooh! oh!) (Oh oh! Oh oh!) (Oooh ooh! oh!) (Oh oh! Oh oh!)

Another night, another inner fight The demons calling My soul is dark, but with a touch of light The whole world's changing I draw the line, the pleasure redefined It's now awakening I feel the urge, emotions new converge And now it's time to kill, kill, kill, kill The speed of the light, I feel the time is right I've smashed all boundaries A skull crush, adrenaline rush The night has found me Infection spread, a spear right through my head The time is coming I know the score but I got to have one more And for more I could kill, kill, kill, kill I am what I choose to be I lose grip to reality And I have nothing to atone All your morals thrown in vain I know my pleasure is my pain But I'm gonna make it in my own The sun is up, but I can't get enough The sky's the limit I'm on the top, but I ain't gonna stop I'll never give in It's in my brain, it's driving me insane Hallucinations Always the same but I ain't got no shame Destruction - I must kill, kill, kill, kill I am what I choose to be I lose grip to reality And I have nothing to atone All your morals thrown in vain I know my pleasure is my pain But I'm gonna make it in my own I see the sunrise once again I've lived my life and now I'm dead Time to calm down all on my own This is nothing new for me This is my reality So open your eyes and don't ever hide away I am what I choose to be I lose grip to reality And I have nothing to atone All your morals thrown in vain I know my pleasure is my pain But I'm gonna make it in my own I'm it in my own!
