Once Upon a Time
THE AWAKENING (M/L: Jevo) Long time ago into the deep caves Under the Mountains Of Hope The Gods of Thunder Gathered to create a perfect being Hammerers and forgers Worked together day after day Night after night Only they knew the secrets of steel Finally a mighty creature was born Made of forged iron, fire and steel He was the Master of all the elements He had the gift of immortality Thousands of descendants Spread all over the Universe All his sons were made of flesh and bones The flame still burns Within their Hearts of Metal They will never die The Gates of Valhalla await.

RIDE OF NORSEMEN (M/L: Jevo) We sailed the North Sea up and down Spreading norman piracy Searching for conquest and for loot Reached the Mediterranean sea Reckless and daring vikings Pirates of northern lands Searching for gold and treasures Wild men of war Side by side - by means of hard axe blows One by one - they fell to the ground Side by side - with swords strokes and arrows One by one - to die suffering were they bound Founding reigns in Irish lands Up the Seine we took Paris The wrath of Odin did we bring Burning towns from France to Greece By drakkars crossed the oceans Boarding warships and boats Inland we raped and plundered Thirsty for blood Side by side - with power of Norsemen One by one - their ships did we burn Side by side - we sailed up the rivers One by one - destroying the towns we found

METALOPOLIS (M/L: Jevo) Far from the place you live, Away from the din. There is a land of joy, Amusement and spree. Called Metalopolis, The town of your dreams. Made of green grass and trees And clear water streams. Rivers of sweet wine And lakes full of beer, Delightful dishes everywhere. All girls are gorgeous Who you can romp with, While birds chip metal melodies. Come with me to a never Neverland And you’ll see Landscapes of trees and lush. Stay a while so we can have some fun In this world of bliss No fumes in the atmosphere, Fresh air’s what you breathe, People are really free And live without fear. A place where Metal rules And work’s not allowed. Beer is the only God And binge is the law. Lightly clad women lying on the lawn. Pleasantly basking in the sun Huge amplifiers placed along the streets to play loud metal symphonies

RESURRECTION (Shadow Of The King Part II) (M/L: Jevo) Voice of death is calling I’m running through the dark Cold is blood of power Cold is in my heart Heaven’s waiting for me Not ready to die Cross the line before fear highs Gods I will fight searching for resurrection The end of the dream hurts like a silent scream Now, I will fight, revenge’s my own light Here I stand, sorrow land, evil hate ‘til the end Sorrow marches through the Mighty hands of god Now I pray for my return Defend what I believe It’s my only way of life Defending my son my own life Resurrection gives me strength to war To bring me home, to carry on Resurrection heals me more and more To fight in life To live in shadows every night
EGYPT (M: Patxa, Iván, Mikel, Jevo / L: Jevo) In a land, close to the Nile Surrounded by desert is Egypt. Down below, under the sand Lie the rest of ancient kings. Ooh, relics and gold in their graves Ooh, better not desecrate. Many centuries ago Egyptian kings were protected by the Gods For their Glory and Peace In the land of pyramids I found my doom And the curse will follow me For all eternity Egypt, the legend, curse of the pharaohs Horus, Osiris, wrath of the Gods Suffering and Sorrow, the prophecy reveals Egypt forgive me, the curse fulfills Tales were told that I did ignore About maledictions and curses Now my soul, eternally damned Until the End of all days Ooh, shadows appear in my dreams Ooh, grim visions, demons of greed Hidden traps and labyrinths Were not enough And I entered the vault To appease my greed Hieroglyphics on the wall Signs on the stone Maledictions shall be cast For whom profane the tombs

THE OUTLAW (M/L: Jevo) Listen, I´m an outlaw Riding to live and living to ride. Wanted for my misdeeds Yes, I am wanted dead or alive. Born of a wolf and a rattlesnake Strong whisky runs through my veins Black is my horse, like the wings of Death As I ride through desert plains Ride like the wind over prairies and cannyons The reward for my head´s so high But I laugh, gallows will wait! Trainraids, banks and ranches Gold and dollars, I rob without rest. Faster than my shadow I'm the fastest gunman in the West. Watch out your back when I'm on the run For even the redskins fear me Riots and women at the saloons Playin' poker I always cheat

BORN BY METAL (M: Iván V., Mikel / L: Iván V.) Right, It has begun. I can feel there's magic in the air. Heavy Metal is here. It's in you... It's in me. Noise and show, fire and lights We want it loud and we want it high. Soul of Metal anew. It's in me... It's in you. Never! Never debase what we have. Never! Never forget what we are Heavy Metal! By Metal I was born, For Metal I will die. Heavy Metal music is my life. By Metal I was born, For Metal I will die. Nothing else but Metal in my mind. Now I see there's Metal in the air. Let me feel it... Let me hear your scream... By Metal I was born, In Metal I will die. Heavy metal music is my life. By Metal I was born, In Metal I will die. Nothing but Metal tonight!

THE OAK (M/L: Jevo) There´s a place in the wood Where The Oak has been there through the ages On its bark magic runes Written by the old wizards and witches It´s midnight and darkness surrounds us Thick mist is here Wolves howl at the moon, hear them crying Bewitchment starts The oak will show its secret Will-o-the-wisps will light our way Head for the path to glory To a place where dreams come true Witchcraft and incantation Don´t break the spell, the charm goes on Beyond the realms of reality Tonight we´ll cross the gates of space and time So dark is the night Imps, goblins and fauns dance together Hear the wind, don't take fright Take this potion and you´ll live forever my friend Bats, mushrooms and toads in a couldron And you will fly Black magic to invoke ancient spirits They never died

HYMN OF VICTORY (M/L: Jevo) From the guts of Metal we were born Steel and Fire in our hearts Proud we stand against the wind and storm No one can stop our rage. I see the armies of Metalians Wielding their hammers in the air The clash will make Earth tremble You will hear the screams Of Victory! Raise high your fist All together in a voice United we stand, not alone With Power and Might We will show the World That Heavy Metal´s here to remain. When we march, we never step backwards There’s only Triumph or Death Gods of War are always on our side And Metal keep us alive Never give in, never surrender Our Unity and Hate make us strong We are less in number But they´ll never beat us down The flame still burns!

HUMANS (M/L: Jevo) I came from the stars on a mission to find A place for a colony somewhere to live But the influence of humans Wasted all hopes for my race. Carbon dioxide is blackening your lungs Chemical warfares, pollution we breathe There’s a leak in a nuclear station That no one controls. Humans – Wasting the Earth Destroyers – Heading for Death Time has come for this fading planet Straight to darkness This is the beginning of the End. I must go back where I belong to Far from here and Leave this pigsty world that you call Earth. Black tides on the oceans, all sealife is dead. Decreasing the ozone, the greenhouse effect Warms the crust of the Earth Drying rivers and melting the poles. Look at the menu you taste everyday Uranium-full salad, pork chops with aphta, Crazy roast beef on the grill And fresh three-eyed fish. Humans – Wasting the Earth Destroyers – Heading for Death All I see now is a cancer in this world Your fate is sorrow and doom. No turning back, my predictions will fulfil There`s nothing that we can do. Centuries ago, many centuries before your birthday I found a planet with perfect conditions of life. But everything was spoilt by a plague of humans Now that my mission is done, I want to go home.
