APOCALYPSE
Lyrics, Heavy Metal
1995-00-00
Spawn the modern death machine / Grim reaper awaits your call
Blood-stained hands claim a new regime / A once-proud race now falls
The east will ally with the west / Destruction fills our minds
Self-preservation put to the test / Oh God please hear our cries
We face the end / God has condemned
Look to the skies / We’re players in the game
( . ? . ) / ( . ? . ) / ( . ? . )
This is the end they call it / The Apocalypse

DARKNESS
Lyrics, Heavy Metal
1995-00-00
Come on now / Now I’ll take a rest / While I put my mind to the test / Blackness fills my head / Help me out / Find out what it’s all about / Take a bow / And shed a tear now
Woo hoo / Woo hoo / Huh
Did ya’ have a bad dream? / ‘Cos you know I heard you scream / In your bed while you were sleeping / Close your eyes / Look around and you will find / Darkness all around you
Woo hoo / Woo hoo / Sha ha ha
Woo hoo / Woo hoo / Huh
I said, chase the lies / Your leaders have you hypnotized / Why don’t you stand up for yourself? / Now your black and blue / Your friends have crippled you / Remove your blindfold and help yourself
Woo hoo / Woo hoo
I-I-I-I-I-I-I say cast away / All the sin and all the pain / You’re living in a world a dream / Clear the skies / As I look into your eyes / Your life ain’t what it seems / Close your eyes
|| < < < o O o > > > ||
EXCEPT
Lyrics, Melodic Metal
1995-00-00
Leave my soul alone / The hunt has just begun
Beyond the rising sun / Life has come undone
The reign of kings has ceased / The anger’s been released
So how come I still cry / If I know I’m gonna die? / Ohh . . .
Everyone except for me / Everyone except for me
You’re beating yourself blind / For the questions of all time
But will you ever find / The answers in my mind?
The legacy’s been earned / The castle has been burned
Ask yourself a question / “Who am I?” / Ohh . . .
Everyone except for me / Everyone except for me
|| < < < o O o > > > ||
LIFE OF DESPAIR
Lyrics, Heavy Metal
1995-00-00
I see you standing there / In your life of despair
Wishing you could be alive and free / Like me
Test of time, heal the world / You’ve been dying since the day you were born Locked in a cage / Of a solitary life – yeah
Cos I’m free like a bird / Without a word / Discover a whole new world
Picture perfect family / Everybody’s after me
They wish they could be alive and free / Like me
Turn the pages yesterday / So you may feel the world today
So you may heal the chapters / In my mind, yeah
Cos I’m free like a bird / Without a word / Discover a whole new world
|| < < < o O o > > > ||
OUR WORLD
Lyrics, Heavy Metal
1995-00-00
To breathe your last breath is death / To live forevermore
We all (share a common call) / What’s behind the door?
The fountain of youth / Has shed its last tear
Drown your sorrows / In the sea of fear
Hey! / Hey! / Hey!
Our whole world, is in our hands / (Raise your voice), take a stand
(We are the world), we are the land / Our whole world, is in our hands
Tonight is the night
I’ll kiss the sky before I die / I won’t be weak again
Another day, another page / That’s how it was back then
A man can feed a country / With one loaf of bread
A man can change the Universe / With the words he said
Hey! / Hey! / Hey!
Our whole world, is in our hands / (Raise your voice), take a stand
(We are the world), we are the land / Our whole world, is in our hands
Tonight is the night
To breathe your last breath is death / To live forevermore
We all (share a common call) / What’s behind the door?
The fountain of youth / Has shed its last tear
Drown your sorrows / In the sea of fear
Hey! / Hey! / Hey!
Our whole world, is in our hands / (Raise your voice), take a stand
(We are the world), we are the land / Our whole world, is in our hands
Tonight is the night

REDEMPTION
Lyrics, Melodic Metal
1995-00-00
Thunder cracks the sky / Night closes in
Innocents scream and cry / Shrouded in sin
History repeats / Itself again
Must we sacrifice / Before we win?
‘Cos we will never die / The strong will survive
We will never die / The truth will be told in time
Redemption, redemption, salvation
Redemption, salvation, kingdom come
(Fire) burns the skin / Yet keeps us warm
Satan will tempt us in / And take our souls
I (despise) this world / Of fallacy
(God) never meant for us to live this way
‘Cos we will never die / The strong will survive
We will never die / The truth will be told in time
Redemption, redemption, salvation
Redemption, salvation, kingdom come

SAVIOUR
Lyrics, Melodic Metal
1995-00-00
Lord I have a premonition / Save us from this fate
Rampant chaos blurred our vision / Selfish and irate
Adamant power in our last hour / Requiem shall be raised
Pioneering, domineering / Saviour shall be praised
Our Father who art in heaven / Hallowed be thy name
O guide us from damnation / To your most holy reign
