9. Eye Of The World

[Words & Music by Sielck]

[The Iron Savior has returned to Earth and it seems that the fable will turn.]

Travelling the stars out in the cold
Out on the quest for the old
You had to leave
So don't come to grief

You couldn't see what is right or wrong
Atlantis seemed to be gone
So you attacked
The ones to protect

Out of control
You've been pounding the world
Seems now the tables have turned

Eye of the world - of the world
Back to defend
Your ancient land
Eye of the world
Back from the past
Back to save us at last

Guarding or star, giving us hope
For man you will cope
Now you can see
Who is the enemy

From the abyss
It's the savior's return
Seems now the tables will turn

Eye of the world...
Solo Piet - Kai - Piet - Kai

Mighty machine
Set us free from the night
Be our guiding light
There is a star
Rising up in the sky
We hold your banner high

From the abyss...

Eye of the world...

Eye of the world
Save us
The tables will turn
Eye of the world
Save us
The shadow will burn
Eye of the world

10. Back Into The Light

[Words & Music by Sielck]

[The Dark Empire has been defeated. The home world of Shadow is burning in nuclear fire and it is only a question of time for the gate to collapse. Will the crew get back to the gate in time... or will they remain in this dying universe of the Black?]

Thrown into a world
Where night is ruling day
Where nothing will remain
Existence will decay

The hope of despair
Deep inside our heart
Brought us to the lair
The center of the Dark

Strange and unknown hemisphere
A mission to fulfill
Evil will await us there
We're prepared to kill

Deep inside the emptiness
What to come, to find
Right into the black abyss
Leaving all behind

The stars are black beyond the gate
A wasteland
We must destroy it
For man's sake

Once in a while
I fade into a dream
Skies of blue
And meadows of green

Lost in the void
Vanished from our entity
Lost in the void
Cursed to remain in infinity

Out into unknown
A road of no return
To find the Shadow's throne
The Dark ones have to burn

Bold and brave we made our way
In eternal night
We won't let us led astray
We shall return to the light

The stars are black beyond the gate...

Once in a while...

Lost in the void...

[Solo Kai/Piet]

Strange and unknown hemisphere
Our mission is fulfilled
Evil has been waiting there
Ohh, and we have killed
Deep inside the emptiness
The gate we had to find
Out of the black abyss
Leaving all behind

Back from the void
Back into our entity
Back from the void
Shadow remain in infinity

Leaving all behind
Back into the light

11. After The War

[Music by Eckert/Sielck · Words by Eckert/Sielck]

[The war is over and the warrior returns to where he belongs...]

[Jan:]
I saw the shadow decline
In another world, another time
Reflecting battles full of fear
So far away from home
Death has been near

[Piet:]
I fought for liberty and faith
For survival of our race
The toll of blood it has been high
The dead will never see again
The sun up in the sky

[Both:]
I will return
Return to where I belong
Where I belong
I will be
Be with you after this war
After this war

[Jan:]
What I saw beyond the gate
Eternal darkness - our fate
In everlasting night
Deserted and destroyed
An empire without light

[Piet:]
The flame of hope kept me alive
The iron will survive
I did the things I had to do
And in my very soul
I've always been with you

[Both:]
I will return...

I had to leave it all behind
On my way to the other side
What to find ?

I had to go
Into the unknown
Through all my fear
You have been here
Here in my heart

[Solo Piet]

I will return...
Ohh, after the war

I've Been To Hell (Single, 2000)

1. I've Been To Hell

I saw my children from up in the sky
Bleeding and sentenced to die
Devastation and Termination
I've been your angel of death
Watching unmoved
I've been awaiting your final breath

Children forgive me
For I've been so wrong
Fate took revenge
On all I have done

I've been to Hell
I've seen the fires burning
Oh, I saw Hell
Demons I heard you calling
So many years I've been out there alone
Broken and scared to the bone
Out in the dark
Sorrow and grief possessed my heart

Out of control
In this deadly machine
Innocent victims
Are haunting my dreams

I've been to Hell...

Rage
Agony
Endless pain
I'll never be the same

[Solo by Piet]

Castaway
Today
Light years away from home
Blood on my hands
I must redeem
I will repent

No more repoungance between the machine
And my tortured mind
Together we're strong - now we are one
One of a kind

I've been to Hell...

To Hell I have been to pay for my sin
But no more I'll burn - I shall return

Demons of darkness
You've been calling me
But I'm clear in my mind now
And I'm on my way and I am free

2. Never Say Die

I am your leader
I'm in command
The fate of all my followers
Lies in my hand

The burdon of what is right or wrong
Decisions have to be made
I have to take you all
Inside this burning gate

Will we ever come back
Follow me now
We will attack

Never say die
On wings of hope we'll fly
Never surrender
No never - never say die
Dragons of light
We're leaving tonight
The wings of hope bring us high
Never say die

Fighters are launching up into the sky
On fire they ride
Goddess of fate
Guide and protect us tonight

Into darkness and shadow
So far beyond
Oh, I don't know
If there will be tomorrow

Never say die...

Warriors hear my call
The Evil has to fall

[Solo : Piet - Kai - Piet - Kai - both]

Will we ever come back
We're going beyond
Follow me now
We will attack
Never say die...

Never say - never say - never say die!

3. The Hellion / Electric Eye

[Judas Priest cover]

Up here in space I'm looking down on you
My lasers trace everything you do

You think you're private lives think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape I'm watching all the time
I'm made of metal, my circuits gleam
I am perpetual, I keep the country clean

I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye

Always in focus you can't feel my stare
I zoom into you, you don't know I'm there

I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I'm made of metal, my circuits gleam
I am perpetual, I keep the country clean

I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye

Electric eye in the sky
Feel my stare, always there

There's nothing you can do about it, develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought and so my power grows

I'm made of metal, my circuits gleam
I am perpetual, I keep the country clean

I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye

I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected, detective, electric eye

4. Headhunter

[Krokus cover]

I am the animal, my god, I am the beast
I love to see you bleed, so welcome to my feast
We're serving human flesh to keep you satisfied
With every bloody bite you eat, another's going to die

Don't give me politics, don't give me public schools
Just keep the cops and t.v. police, from breaking all the rules
I am the raging bull, no fear, no Sympathy
Sex and drugs and rock and roll, that's my cup of tea

Feel the heat, throw your bodies into the fire
Time to feed, Headhunter, Headhunter
Headhunter, Headhunter

My axe is clean and soft and blade is shining bright
She's hungry for her midnight snack
And heads will roll tonight, I am the hunter
Not easy to please, stand in line, she cures their lust
Victims on their knees aahh

Headhunter, Headhunter
Headhunter, Headhunter
Headhunter, Headhunter

Up in the skies

now I will bring freedom and justice
to man
Up in the sky

Make me the one
