11. For The World

We're the defenders, we are the ones
Bleeding
For all the creatures, the land and the seas
give us peace
And with the courage born in despair
Hopeless
we will resist your banners of pain
break the chain

Holy machine - creator of sorrows
Awake - wake from your dream
and redeem
Rise from the ocean of darkness
where you've been so long

Cosmic insanity
regain your clarity
For the freedom
and for the world
Hope is our guiding light
it will shine
united we stand to fight
for the freedom
and for the world
For all - and for the world

Sacred messiah, prophet in arms
Liar
blasphemious saint lost in the dark
Brave at heart

We will oppose, stand up against you
Return - and let your soul take control
Come back to life
drive the demons of madness away

Cosmic insanity...

We will oppose, stand up against you
Return - and let your soul
take control
Come back to life
drive the demons of madness away

Cosmic insanity...

Forever we'll be
United and free
For the freedom
and for the world...

12. This Flight Tonight

Look out the left. the captain said
The lights down there
that's where you'll land
Saw a falling star burnin'
high above the
Las Vegas sand

It wasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down south between the trailer
Not the early one
that you wish upon
Not the northern one
that guides in the sailors

You've got that touch so gentle and sweet
but you've got that look so critical
Can't talk to you babe
you know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that
love is just mythical

Up there's a heaven - down there's a town
Blackness everywhere and
little lights shine
Blackness, blackness dragging me down
come on light a candle
in this heart of mine

Starbright, starbright
You've got the loving that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
should not have got on
this flight tonight

I'm drinking sweet champange
got the headphones up high
can't numb you- can't drum you
out of my mind

They're singing
"Goodbye baby, baby bye bye
Uhhh, love is blind!"

Up go the flaps - down go the wheels
hope you got your heat turned on baby
hope they finaly fixed your atomobile
hope it's better
when we meet again babe

Starbright, starbright...

13. The Rage

[Originally performed by Judas Priest]

From a fireball we came crossed sea and mountain
We were drinking beauty with our eyes
We were given all to make our own
Let us be left alone

Laid the tasks and paid the price
Everything survives
Crushed and bolted all the grain
After every wind what a stake we're in
It's paying better than the grain

When we talk without amend
We see better men
Deep inside our blood begins to boil
Like a tiger in the cage
Will begin to shake with rage

1. Coming Home

Lost in the dark milleniums ago
Where is the place where's the place called home

On fire they rode to flee from the fall
Their future was doomed they've foreseen it all

Mythical world of the ancient empire
secret and hidden but some day we shall return

Ancient calls from anywhere in time
we have to follow the sign
Distant voices - sources unknown
Where to they lead us
Where will we go
On the scent for the lost Coming home

Chasing a shadow in stardust and haze
Where will we find traces of our race

The engines are roaring we're leaving ground once more
is it for real - will we fail like so often before

Ancient calls from somewhere in time
we have to follow the sign
Distant voices - sources unknown
Where to they lead us
Where will we go
On the scent for the lost
Coming home

Mythical world of the ancient empire
is it for real - will we fail like so often before

Ancient calls from somewhere

Star of the old guide us - give us hope
Star...

2. Forces Of Rage

Under the ice
we hide from your stare
buried in grief and despair
We're the debris,
the scattered remains
leaves in the storm
who is lashing the world

Destiny calls
extinction of man
will it all happen again
But yet we're alive
unbroken we stand
bannish the conquerer
who's taken the land

We'll be a thorn in your unhuman flesh
there'll be a time for retortion
We'll break the fetters, we'll never give in
although it seems our end will begin

Forces united - forces arise
Legions of iron descent from the skies
Dark knight - you'll never defeat
the immortal spirit of freedom
Savior - watch out beware
we will engage
The Forces Of Rage

Starbirds are gliding
on winds of decay
merciless hunting the pray
Infernal machine
the hatchet of war
sharp as a razor
will cut back the claw

We'll be the virus - a deadly disease
the fever is burning inside you
To bring you to fail is the ultimate aim
we'll rise from the ashes again and again

Forces united - forces arise
Legions of iron descent from the skies
Dark knight - you'll never defeat
the immortal spirit of freedom
Savior - watch out beware
we will engage

Free - at least for a moment in time
Years - how many years have gone by
In fury and wharf we're looking above
forging the sword, the blade of reprisal
Leaders of man let's ride out again
From fire and ice a blazing star will arise!

We'll be a thorn

Forces united - forces arise
Legions of iron descent from the skies
Dark knight - you'll never defeat
the immortal spirit of freedom
Savior - watch out beware
we will engage
The Forces Of Rage

3. Atlantis Falling (Live)

A flash of destruction
like a blaze cut through the night
The heavens on fire
they were glowing in unholy light
Your sudden assault
broke all the dreams of unification
The hunger for power
it's the lash of civilisation

despaired and in pain - all seems so in vain

Fires in the sky
defenceless we stand tonight we will die
Shadows of the end
the Kingdom will fall life it will finally descend
percieve what you've done and repent

Careless we thought
all you do is to bark at the moon
But in the grip of fury
you have conjured
the dawning of doom
is this our fate - wiped out by your hate

Fires in the sky
defenceless we stand tonight we will die
Shadows of the end
the Empire will fall life it will finally descend
Goddess of the seas let us rest in peace
In her cold embrace we will find our graves

Silence will set in - will existance begin - again
Fires in the sky
helpless we stand
defenceless we'll die
Shadows of the end
the Kingdom will fall life will descend
Fires in the sky
helpless we stand defenceless we'll die
Shadows of the end
Atlantis will fall life it will finally descend
descend... for evermore

1. Iron Savior (Live)

Out of the cold you've been given birth
made out of steel to protect and serve
built for eternity you're indestructable
free of emotions a robot miracle

Now you're up there above the clouds
reading your sensors trace
programmed to correct the errors
of the human race

Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky
we can't hide from your cold, staring eye
Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky
deadly and dangerous you'll never die
You gave us hope the Savior machine
you were supposed to be a millions dream

Circuits, chips and bits and bytes
detecting the failure
result of analyses
the human behavior
(I must get control)
Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky...

The Savior knows what's wrong or right
he made up his artificial mind
Now mankind's fate is in his hand
will he ever understand

Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky...

Iron Iron Savior - look what you have done
can't you see your assesement might be wrong
Iron Iron Savior - robot of the law
end this illfated devastating war
