01
- Overture
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to go
Welcome to life damnation
Welcome to fun
Welcome to hope
Here is your invitation
Welcome to the gate
To the unknown fate
Waiting for a better day
Jesters dance around
Slowly growing old
Having party while they stay
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to go
Welcome to life damnation
Welcome to fun
Welcome to hope
Here is your invitation
02
- Until We Rise Again
2080 – our world is an empty domain
Emotions have died
Men bleeding oil are the heroes for children today
Drinking the blood of the weak dictators bring pain
But they show us a smile
Feelings and love are kept hidden in a madhouse cave
It's a mad revolution
And the spirits will die
Oh escape the confusion
Take my hand
Now take my hand
Take me now
Take my hand
We won't be so free
Until we rise again
Eden is mad so enjoy it and fly to the sun
Don't you return
Your breath and your heartbeat are gifts
You've been given for life – oh yeah
Oh our deepest emotions
Are a sign of our life and our love
No robot can stop us
Take my hand
Now take my hand
Take me now
Take my hand
We won't be so free
Until we rise again
Now take my hand
Take me now
Take my hand
We won't be so free
Until we rise again
...Yeah...
03
- How Many Miles
Oh
yeah...
Watching a face and a smile and a light
When you're walking alone in the street
I know your look always gives you the might
Many miles from your ass to your feet
And I dream – what I've seen
Is what I want it to be – self-made reality
How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left to go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died
Look like a queen but you talk like a pawn
And I know you're a fool in disguise
Godfather tell me how to carry on
Blinded by fantasies of lies
And I dream – what I've seen
Is what I want it to be – self-made reality
How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left to go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died
I see your smile. A golden masquerade
And I know my dream it will be my fate
Time has stolen my fantasy
Cause it has become a pale reality
04
- Scarlet Rose
The
moment when you held me tight
Won't come back any more
And at the end of that night
You slammed the door
My dream it died away
Just when I saw red
And nothing but a memory
Is left inside my heart
Nothing is forever in life
But a memory – believe it's true
And when I gaze in the rain
I'm crying just for you
The scarlet rose has died
Lost inside the night
Left in my mind like a dream and full of pride
The scarlet rose has died
The one and only way to catch the
Beauty of a dawn
Is to take a picture
Of the growing sun
I got that experience
No one could steal away
One moment of your life is mine
I remember day by day
Nothing is forever in life
But a memory – believe it's true
And when I gaze in the rain
I'm crying just for you
The scarlet rose has died
Lost inside the night
Left in my mind like a dream and full of pride
The scarlet rose has died
The scarlet rose has died
Lost inside the night
Left in my mind like a dream and full of pride
The scarlet rose has died...
..And full of pride...
05
- Out Of Control
Into a place of darkness, he was born to live alone
He got one big desire: one day he'd get the crown:
Hey devil come on help me now
Be the one to pull my string
Let me be your slave to serve you
To let me be the king
Just give me a sign
Take on my mind and let me stay blind
A victim of life too weak to be kind
Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown, here is my fate
Wherever I may roam there will be hate and pain
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, respect is what I gain
I look up to Mr. Crowley, evil powers: now unite!
I will be your darkest nightmare
My life's a fatal fight
Just give me a sign
Take on my mind and let me stay blind
A victim of life too weak to be kind
Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown, here is my fate
"Listen up my friend: You just cry for a hand
But you only pretend that you're bad – now!"
Well, take on my mind...
Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown
06
- Vain Glory Opera
The
prayers have been spoken
May the Gods be on my side
May they join my way to bring me victory
Seven at one stroke
My triumph and my pride
They will be history
But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
What's hell without a paradise
What's the night without a day
We would think it's bright
What's a fall if we can't rise
What's a hero at a play
Without a fool to fight
But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
07
- Fairytale
Yeah...
Giants of stone built up by desire
No one could tell us the secret of fire
The hunger for wisdom deep in your heart
You can't accept that you're living apart
Water runs down the river
Lord you are the only to deliver
Night: stay night
In the night nothing's white
Not a knowledge not a light
Lord, will you tell me why someday
Fairytale – life is one big fairytale
A book of seven seals
Someone tell me why and how
I'm always told to kneel down and pray
What shall I do to stay on my way
Questions borrow through my brain
Pound and disturb and drive me insane
Lost in visions of knowledge I'll never owe
Night to night
Lolalalolalalolalolalalolalalola
In the night not a light
Not a knowledge nothing's white
Lord, will you tell me why someday
Fairytale – life is one big fairytale
A book of seven seals
Someone tell me why and how
Tell me what is time – yeah
Fairytale – life is one big fairytale
A book of seven seals
Someone tell me why and how
08
- Walk On Fighting
The
ivory is cold, where is my desire
In a cage of gold, not a trace of fire
Ice cold as ice, I'm heading for tomorrow
I am tired of waiting, I'll beg and steal and borrow
Life is too short to be wasted
So why do I sit around
Dance on the edge of a razor
Get off the ground and I'll never return
Walk on fighting
Don't look ever back
Walk on fighting
Don't you look back to your cries
The phone it waits in silence, no message left by you
There is no use in crying, I know I've been a fool
Now it's too late, no words left to say
I gotta call it fate, forget and look away
Life is too short to be wasted
So why do I sit around
Dance on the edge of a razor
Get off the ground and I'll never return
Walk on fighting
Don't look ever back
Walk on fighting
Don't you look back to your cries
Walk on fighting...
Walk on fighting
Don't look ever back
Walk on fighting
Don't you look back to your cries
09
- Tomorrow
Another dawn is coming
A new day has begun
An eagle is rising slowly to the skies of no return
Disappearing in the growing sun
So proud and so beautiful
Thinking of tomorrow, with tears in his eyes
Once a lot of brothers spread their wings to join his way
Now he's left alone in a world of lies
Cry for tomorrow
Why don't we hear the eagle's cries
Living in sorrow
Why don't we help him to survive
Once a dignity – a mighty sign of pride
Strong and proud and free
A symbol of eternity – why don't we see
We can't survive, if we don't realize
Our world is a place that can't be created twice
Cry for tomorrow
Why don't we hear the eagle's cries
Living in sorrow
Why don't we help him to survive
10
- No More Foolin'
Fair sex paralyzer, lipstick in a face
Spirit analizer, not one human trace
No need to cry
Roll the fuckin' dice, I'm a looser in a game
Gonna hurt my feelings, your only really aim
Feels like I die
You can play nice you get satisfied when you win
I see a smile of truth but I can't stare within
Riot in your soul
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
Say goodbye – say goodbye
You never knew that I was strong enough to stand
All alone on my own I don't need your hand
Got your weapons loaded, your target is in your sight
Why don't you only tell me, that I shall fuckin' die
Looking so attractive, wanna get me active
But you never realized that I have got the tactics
I'm much too cool, much too large to be fooled
By tour lies
You can play nice you get satisfied when you win
I see a smile of truth but I can't stare within
Riot in your soul
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
Say goodbye – say goodbye
You never knew that I was strong enough to stand
All alone on my own I don't need your hand
...ow...
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
No more foolin'
You will save all your love
Say goodbye – say goodbye
11
- Hymn
Give us this day all that you showed me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
And they say that in our time
All that's good will fall from grace
Even saints would turn their face
In our time
And they told us that in our days
Different words said in different ways
Have other meanings from he who says
In our time
Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
And they say that in our time
We would reap from their legacy
And we would learn from what they had seen
In our time
And they told us that in our days
We would know what was high on high
We would follow and not defy
In our time
Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Faithless in faith
We must behold the things we see
Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
