- Abyss of Evil
You wake up in the morning and you shake your weary head
You look for the sunshine but rain falls down instead
Lost in the wilderness there is chaos everywhere
Win or lose pick and choose we are the children of despair
Roll the dice pay the price look for a reason
Wise man show me which way to go
Tell me what you know tell me what you know
Do you know the wonders of the world
- Behind The Clown
Only fragments of the truth we follow
Sailing on the sea of lies with sorrow
Fill the emptiness inside so hollow
And bring meaning to our day tomorrow
God if you wait for me
I will wait for you
Can you forgive the things we've done here
- Below
We are sailing stormy water
Sinking souls in the blackest sea
Crawling hellhounds evil has been found
Feeding death to the war machine
Are you lonely you're not the only one
Feeling coldness in the burning rain
In your heart you're haunted by the life you wanted
- Blacksong
I'm gona fight
even known my life is burning
everything's gona be alright
even if there's no returning
In silence
I'm watching
I feel the world around
- Blood on the Highway
So you wanna be a big time rock star
Without my help you know you won't get too far
Just give me everything you might get something
But be prepared to walk away with nothing
Are you waiting if you wanna join me
Bring me a life and don't dissapoint me
I know you want it so don't keep me waiting
- Bridges Will Burn
I wanna wake up to a brand new morning
Dance in the sunlight when there's love in the air
I wanna see that we can live together
Control the fire and pass on the flame
Deep in the heart I feel sorrow and pain
I can't find the words it's so hard to explain
The bridges we build will burn down
- Burning Chains
Driving the the pouring rain
My heart's heavy filled with pain
I think of you and of what went wrong
I wonder how I can carry on...oh baby
Like a coin in a wishing well
Keeping secrets I can never tell
Passing roads that lead to hell
- can't go back
Sometimes I'm filled with confusion
I think I've been here before
Just how well do you know me
I try to run but I can't find the door
I'm all alone in the city
Seems like I'm out of control Ain't no doubt it's a pity, all alone another lost soul
- Chains Around You
Once when your life was an open door
Someone poisoned you blind
Can you remember those days without war
Now you have left them behind
Did you become what you needed to be
Have you achieved what you wanted
There was a time when your heart spoke free
Before the demon was planted - yeah
- Christine
There was a time when I was younger
My love was cold and I didn't know wich way to go
Then I was found by a shiny flower
She took me in and saved me from stormy wind
Christine - everyday she is so good - so good to me
Christine - she's everything a man would ever need
Christine - she lifts me up when I'm feeling low
- City In Between
The angel appeared to me last night
I heard the silence between his words
In the shadow the bells were ringing loud
I've been waiting for the call
When I saw the raven flying in from the light
It was the middle of the dream
Voices creeping slowly out of my past telling lies
- Duke Of Love
I've been running with demons
From the day I was born
Burned my soul in the fire
It turned my heart to stone
But I came out of the shadows
And stood my ground through the storm
I stole desire from the devil
And power from the Lord above
- Enlighten Me
Be still - I want you to listen - it's all so silly
Our ways have somewhere on the way surrendered
Adjusted to the game and the dream is slightly shattered
Guess the answer was never meant to be found
And when the search is over
Our questions still remain
Enlighten me - I wanna see - how this could be the age of reason
- Gate Of Tears
Yeah yeah aah aah aah aah aah
On a mountain of madness madness at the top of the world
Looking down at the people leading their crazy lives
I saw the token token the seal has been broken
We've built the tower way too high
Dreams being shattered the rise and the fall
Hear the sound of judgement day judgement day
Prepare to meet your maker
- Gonna Find The Sun
I was so blind just could not see
There was no way out for you or me
We were young and restless
Trying to break free from the strong arm of society
Now I'm a lonesome Jailbird
With no more tears to cry
- Hellfire
Before me now
I see a dying planet
Captured souls
With microchips implanted When warning came
You stayed the same
When warning came
You stayed the same I am crumbling over the obstacles
Nothing left to entertain
- House Of Cards
It's late at night
And I'm watching the news
There's blood on the screen
And I felt guilty somehow
Escaping from reality
When I close my eyes
Don't wanna see them die
Hear the children cry
- I Came To Rock
I was born in darkest night
A storm of thunder
There was no hope in sight
Life pulled me under
I found my gasoline
My demon fire
It made my engine scream
It flew me higher
- Labour Of Love
Tired of reading papers, I'm even tired of Q.
All I ever seem to do is play my delta blues.
Hiding in the corner, don't ever go outside.
Same sweet talking women ain't gonna take me for a ride.
Ain't got no need to be sorry, ain't ever done you no wrong.
Ain't going back in no hurry, baby thats why
- Live To Win
Frustrated, degraded
Down before you're done
Rejection, depression
Can't get what you want
You ask me how I make my way
You ask me every where and why
You hang on every word I say
- Man of the Dark
As the night's casting shadows upon the city walls
He finds his way in the dark
Dressed in black to become unseen
He's moving with the secrets of his sacrifice
See the moon in his eyes and the lost paradise
It's weighing him down as he stumbles around... yeah
Lonely road
- Midnight madness
I came here to bring you power
But they all pulled me down
And crushed my tower
Far from heaven fighting the dragon
Blind with anger like devil's spawn
Midnight madness - Sore with sadness
Screaming the pain away...away
- Night City
Whoa oh the sun the rain and the crossroads I wonder what waits up ahead
And only the ghost knows the answer to what happens after I'm dead
Streets of hell it's a jungle I see people with hate in their eyes
The man with the gun is just a child on the run from the light yeah
Night city in the city night
Someone's crawling out of sight hiding in the neon night city
The moon the wind and the shadows still we are standing in the shade
Wolves at the door still howling to eat you alive it's the game
- No More Miracles
Stare into these eyes my blue madonna
A bitter serenade
Hold onto the picture of a woman
Who cried while music played
Remember when we heard the bell
It rang for us we knew it well
and now we know our dream of love has died
- One Day We Will Put Out The Sun
In the core of the earth a burning fire
Like the flame in my heart aiming higher
Bursting with power bound to explode
Some day the light will go
black on the globe
Praying for a master
Someone who can lead us home
- Rock 'n' Roll Angel
Can you feel me
In the darkest hallways of your mind
Are you lost and lonely walking blind
Hear me calling are you falling from your dreaming sky
I see sorrow screaming in your eyes
So many lies... yeah
Cold in the darkness frozen within
- Shadow people
Yeah aah day is dying night is moving in the darkness evil looming
Crawling anger feeling hollow future city so cold with sorrow yeah
Shameless leaders killing faster sending legions of disaster
No retreat no surrender thunderpain we will remember
And the diamond is you true blue and the crystal is me lost in the dark
Shadow people shadow land desert danger there's blood on the sand
Blindfolded no time to see oh just another liar and the liar is me
Like a burning wind of fire push the demon in your desire
- Showdown
Looking for you I've been looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
I cried for mercy
I have prayed to the Lord
The angels have fallen and now I cry some more
Meet me at the crossroads to show me which way to turn
- Something Real
There was a shadow over heaven
On the day that I was born
They tried to bless me with holy water
But I was baptised in a storm... Oh yeahhh
I was raised with a crossbow aiming for something real
I sent out the arrow from behind my defense shield
Eternal dreamer so full of lite
- Song For Ronnie James Dio
There's a voice in the world for the Lonely*
There's a fire in the heart of a King.
And the Broken One's will know,
They are not the only,
When He starts to sing.
I turn to face the Sun,
When the pain is calling.
- Starfire
So many faces cold and warm
Stranded in this world
So little time, there's no rewind
Must be strong and carry on
As the light of the moon catches me
I live, I live
As the stars shimmer bright for me
- Stormcrow
I'm coming out at sundown
Casting shadows in this town...
Breathing the night
Holy times are over and I'm a pagan soldier
Looking for love
Stormcrow - I ride the wind
Stormcrow - Into the rain again
- Sunset Station
Well, I got time on my side as I roll the dice
There is something out there waiting for me
And I see roads without signs that can lead you blind
And the lonely way is easy to take
Hold on - hold on tighter
It's a long way to where I'm going
- The Inner Road
Oh finding a reason killing the truth with lies
It cuts like a razor when your dreams are broken
And there is no savior only rock and roll
Children of fire come and sell your soul
Life is all life is all there is to know before death black death
You gotta know your hell to find your heaven
Surrounded by treason losing our youth in cries
My over the horizon radar sweeps the land whoa oh
- Vision Eyes
Trade over land or by sea
We got too much money
But still there are people who need
Researching technology
Seemingly improving our ways
And our economy
I'll fly my rockship to a future world
- War of the World
There's something in the air I feel the omen
My bones are aching I've got no more pain to bleed... no
Hear someone in despair is there no healer
To save the forgotten ones and burn away the stealer
Sign of the dark it's the war of the world
The dragon's bleeding my sword is piercing
Why save the world when you can rule it
- We brought the angels down
Maker of time where did you run to?
Inside the wheel I cry for you (you)
Soon from the sins that make me burn
Circle of fate will keep turning
Is it far?
I've got to know
Fading faster
- World Gone Mad
Locked up in a world of madness crying
Drifting to my paradise below
Darker than a crow of moonlight I'm flying
Blinded by the dreams that made me grow
Halfway to the final station dying
Frozen is my will to play the game
All my life I've had rock and roll it took my soul
- Young Forever
Blessed with thunder
Crowned with rain
Fuelled with fire
As I spit out the flames
I bring you earthquake
I can be blazing
The demon in my soul is aching
To break free
