11. Hear Me Calling

I 'm high over mountains
I conquer the stormy seas
I 'll capture your fortress
Bring you down on your knees

I'm living the dream
Break the chains of oppression from you
In the Land of the Free
I am calling for you

I might come with thunder
I might come with rain
The choice's not given
I will master your pain

The edge of a dream
See the glimpse of a new horizon
Life is not what it seems
Oh, can't you see

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begins
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the wind

Hear my prayer
Where's the saviour
Voice of anger will echo with force

Watch the sunrise
Taste of freedom
Heart is bleeding
I ride through the eye of the storm

Hold on to your dreams
Say farewell to the grand illusion
Blinded eyes never see
In the Land of the free

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begin
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the ...

Hear me calling on the wind
Can't you feel the change begin
Hearts of truth will freedom bring
I'm calling on the wind
On the wind
On the wind

12. Insurrection

I look out to the stormy sea
I wish upon a star
Pulsating light to comfort me
But oh, it seems so far

So as I stand I realize
I wish that I'll be there
About to give up all my life
and vanish in thin air

But I know, as I dream
all the world has passed me by
and I know I should do better
for you and me tonight

I'm coming home, Yeah!

There were stars in the eyes at the masquerade
and the King was lost in the grand illusion
Well, the the day has come , they've lost the way
and the Joker laughs at the mass confusion
They stand and stare

Now listen all you people
This is what I say
Raise my voice in anger
I'm trying to get away
....... from all

Now listen, what you're doing
is just not good at all
the silly games you're playing
are raising up the wall

Time goes by, the world we love
is gone.....forever

Are we ever gonna change our way
Will we ever stop the fury
Is it life or will we just decay
Will we lose or stand in glory

Insurrection-God election
Heavy changes make my day
Storm the spire, Hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way

Insurrection, Insurrection

Masses will be rising, marching forces neutralising
all the powers in the world with raging fury
Enemies are falling down, their blood is spilled on holy ground
the end is near for maximizing profits

Why do we have to fight, why?
Close your eyes and die

Are we ever gonna change our way
Will we ever stop the fury
Is it life or will we just decay
Will we lose or stand in glory

Insurrection-God election
Heavy changes, disobey
Storm the spire, hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way

Insurrection

The king of damnation learned from the old
The harvest of fury
Love is the answer, blood is the oath
Red are the canyons, oh

Friend or foe, we have been trying
Kings and Queens, all have been lying
All the same, all devastating
All I see when contemplating hope

Here I stand alone, and I have lost the way
The eyes of a believer, turning to stone
Silent, no more tears, the emptiness is mine
Only Rain is falling, dripping on the trail
Father of the earth, I'm calling you
Dry your tears away and give me hope
Fill my heart with strength
And give power to my soul
Let magic fill the sky and take me home
singing....
ooh, let me go!

Are we ever gonna change our way
Will we ever stop the fury
Is it life or will we just decay
We must fight to stand in glory

Insurrection-God election
Heavy changes, disobey
Storm the spire, hearts on fire
Storm is coming on its way

I look out to the stormy sea
I wish upon a star....

1. Empathy

[Hansen]

As the days grow colder now
And everything is lost
A vision forms of better men
Rising from the cross

Never held the key to life
Finally their loss
Rising from the emptiness
And all that ever was

The battle rages on 'til now
Many men were lost
Dried into an empty shell
Nailed onto the cross

As I lie awake by now
Having never loved
Heaven sent for all of us
So painful our loss

In the eyes of the world a believer
But I'm sure they'll be turning away

[Chorus:]
Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling
Pain has come
And the world will surely hide
In empathy

And then the world's religious fools
Come knocking at your door
Mankind is not wiser now
I've heard it all before

Still the mindless will hail the deceivers
And I'm sure they'll be turning away

Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling
Pain has come
And the world will surely hide

In empathy

Empathy
In empathy
And the world will hide
In empathy
In empathy
Yes the world will hide
In empathy
The world will hide
Empathy
Empathy!

2. All You Need To Know

[Hansen]

I came from the sky on the coldest day
They tough me to speak and to walk and obey
Injected their will into my simple kind
Forever to be in control of my mind

Let me out, let me out and walk away
Let me live on the run
Let me out, let me out and make me stay
For my kingdom to come

[Chorus:]
I'm the one with no name
And I won't play your game
I'm no light in the dark and no savior
Let my powers unfold
And before I get cold
Let me die as a rebel
Or live as a free man at last

I seek no forgiveness for taking my turn
I don't beg your pardon
It's time that you learn
That I'm non-conform
And I hate the norm
And I wish your world away
I'm falling to pieces sometime

[Chorus x2]

Free at last

3. Time To Live

[Richter]

A lonely rider in the morning sun
Heading out into the west
And his journey only has begun
He still believes the very best

A golden rainbow hanging in the sky
Full of mercy for those about to die
Up in the heavens so close to the edge
An angel shall speak to the dead

[Chorus:]
Time to live
I hear the voices
Time to live
Of the spirits in the sky
Time to live
They leave no choices
Time to live now, live
Live or die

The fading light beams of the setting sun
Showing life is but a wheel
Oh lord, I never wanted to be the one
To be dying on the fields

And when it's over and all is set and done
No more crying no more loving on the run
Up in the heavens so close to the edge
An angel shall speak to the dead

Time to live
I hear the voices
Time to live
Of the spirits in the sky
Time to live
They leave no choices
Time to live now, live
Live or die

Don't you wonder, ride again
When you always hide in shadows
You will never lose the pain
When the sky shines in amber
And night starts to fall
There's a light that burns forever for us all

Time to live
Time to live
Time to live
I hear the voices
Time to live
Of the spirits in the sky
Time to live
They leave no choices
Time to live now, live
Live or die

4. To The Metal

[Hansen]

Coming from the streets
fists up in the air
generating heat
they come from everywhere

Hail

Fists are made of iron
bodies made of steel
dancing on a razor
Metal is the deal
Hail

[Chorus:]
We came to feel the thunder
the lightning and the heat
we came to hail the metal gods
banging to the beat
singin

Hail to the Metal, hail
Singin Hail Heavy Metal, hail

The power in the music
arising in us all
we re never gonna lose it
we re proud and standing tall
Hail
I said hail

If you just cannot feel it
you ll never understand
there s nothing s gonna beat it
Metal rules the land
Hail

We came to feel the thunder
the lightning and the heat
we came to hail the metal gods
banging to the beat
singin

Hail to the Metal, hail
Singin Hail Heavy Metal, hail
Hail

Hail Heavy Metal, hail

5. Rise

[Zimmermann]

Fast decline of human values
Fast decay of virtues and morality
We're falling to pieces

Trust and faith are smashed to splinters
Confidence abused and torn away
But we will remember

We know who's the one to blame
We hold out 'till the end of the game

[Chorus:]
And then we'll rise in victory
We'll return stronger than ever
We shall rise from agony
Stand our ground
Stronger than ever

Self-destructive human nature
We sell out the future of our kind
We're going from heaven to hell
We walk through storm and fire
Now we have to stand the test of time
But we won't surrender
We face the demons of our crime
A chance for us, a chance for all mankind

And then we'll rise in victory
We'll return stronger than ever
We shall rise from agony
Stand our ground
Stronger than ever

Hate creates destruction
Greed wants to posses
Virus, massinfection
Force wants to oppress
Who's the core of evil
Who directs our fall
Who creates the chaos
Who's responsible

And then we'll rise in victory
We'll return stronger than ever
We shall rise from agony
Stand our ground
Stronger than ever

6. Mother Angel

[Hansen]

From the book of life
Comes a rider for the damned
And he wields the scythe
As he rides across the land

But when he comes
You'll never know
Then it's time for you to leave the world

[Chorus:]
Mother Angel tell me why
Is it cool up in the sky
Was it time for you to disappear and go
Is there something I should know
Was it time for you to go
Waiting for a sign from you
To let me know
Here on my own

From the ashes we do come
To the ashes we shall go
And the dust that we were made of
Shall embrace our very soul
All the times that we don't know
Make it harder to believe in god
And heaven above

So Mother Angel tell me why
Is it cool up in the sky
Was it time for you to disappear and go
Is there something I should know
Was it time for you to go
Waiting for a sign from you
To let me know
Here on my own

My hands reach out into thin air
And the truth is hard to bear
No one comes to bring you back again

So Mother Angel tell me why
Is it cool up in the sky
Was it time for you to disappear and go
Is there something I should know
Was it time for you to go
Waiting for a sign from you
To let me know
Here on my own

7. Shine Forever

[Schlächter]

Give me peace and absolution
Take me up into the light
Sacrifice and self-destruction
Bodies burning bright
To die for revelation
Decimate the enemy
Holy war into damnation
Blood is on the streets

But when the knife is cutting deep
And you're crying in your sleep
Then it's time to come alive

And rise up, shine forever
You will see the light again on your road

Watch your step they're right behind you
Better move without a sound
Damn the day they're gonna find you
Grind you to the ground

And the knife is cutting deep
And in agony you creep
And it's time to come alive

And rise up, shine forever
You will see the light on your road
Rise up it's now or never
You will see the light again on your road

Standing and watching the fire
Don't wanna stand in the row
Watching the flames getting higher
Look at yourself, regain your self-control

Take a look around you, you're not alone
So stand up and rise

Rise up, shine forever
You will see the light on your road
Rise up shine forever
And your star will rise again
It will rise
