(instrumental)


2.The Last Supper

Well done my friend, thanks for the offer
We'll catch him at night to end this game
Take these thirty dimes in a coffer
Meet us at midnight, please hold the flame

Believe my days are counted
I feel the evil breath
The liar sits right by my side
His eyes are full of fear and pride

It's my last supper
After this I will die
It's my last supper
My own sacrifice

Welcome my friends
come celebrate with me
You are invited to take a place
Feat and drink as much as you will
Before they start the race of death

Believe my days are counted
I feel the evil breath
The liar sits right by my side
His eyes are full of fear and pride

It's my last supper
After this i will die
It's my last supper
My own sacrifice

My end is near
Come pray with me
My fortune is over
But love can be

Whenever I die
Please let me fly
Remember me
And love can be

Believe my days are counted
I feel the evil breath
The liar sits right by my side
His eyes are full of fear and pride

It's my last supper
After this I will die
It's my last supper
My own sacrifice
.


3.Desert Rose

Far away from the rising sun
I saw a shadow following me
Water glimmering before my eyes
But it's only the devil in disguise

I feel a hand caressing my head
I'm bonded by the fear of death
I'm getting up with my last power
In mortal agony I breath

Out of the light she's coming up
Serving me the golden cup
She's saving my soul and getting close
I see the eyes of my desert rose

A golden fortress in the middle of nowhere
Birds fly high through the desert sun
She's leading me behind the curtain
Where eagles dare and life has begun

Out of the light she's coming up
Serving me the golden cup
She's saving my soul and getting close
I see the eyes of my desert rose

I'm waking up out of this dream
Wishing well it would become true
I remember well what she has told
Now I'm prepared for becoming old

Out of the light she's coming up
Serving me the golden cup
She's saving my soul and getting close
I see the eyes of my desert rose



4.The Grave Dancer

I see the people, living just a lie
Searching for freedom, untill they die
They live as cowards, they die as fools
But after death is gone, I come to rule
I haunt the ruins of your wretched mind
You can't your tumbling blind

[Chorus:]
Fools - I will lead you down
Losers - Your eyes will stud my crown
Bastards - I rule you life
I dance on your grave
I dance on your grave

I am the ruler, of the endless night
I am a mighty power, that you just can't fight
I hold the k ey to your destiny
Do what you want, you'll never be free
Running in circles, no way out of this maze
Fog in your brains, get lost in the haze
I am the little man, inside your head
you think good, but I'll make it bad
I am the reaper of your destiny
The reaper is you and the reaper is me


5.Shoot Her Down


Watch her style, Demon's smile. Walkin' down the road.
Dressed in black, Don't look back. Lies that's what she told
Evil speel, Came from hell. Far from down below.

Shoot her, Shoot her, Shoot her down.
Shoot her down, I said down down down.
Shoot her down, I said down down down.
Shoot her down, I said down down down
Shoot her down, I said down.

Made me weak, Struck her feet. Right into my balls,
Got my knife, Took her life,Watched her as she crawled.
Loved her so, Had to go. Down where she belongs.
Shoot her, Shoot her, Shoot her down
Ref:
(guitar solo)
Ref:

Shoot her (4 times)


6.The Reaper

Welcome to the Evil's nightmare
See the demons dancing round
Waiting for the reaper's rising
Looking out for Satan's crowd

The grave is open, a digger's smile
please welcome the dead

Look Behind You; He Stands Behind You
The Reaper Shall Return
Look Reside You; Walks beside You
The Reaper has Returned

Tonight the Reaper's party is open
Get entrance, get the trance
Forget about the words of warning
Forget about the smell of death

The raft of death now leaves the landing
Waters wipe out space and time
Black man gives a skinless smile
Cold greetings reach your mind

 


7.Paradise

Planet is so sweet
Like you never see before
And the stand of the crown
Licks on i day i shall return

Cold side of the war
Try to your life are never know
And the night rests of lie
By the times you never no time

Living in the paradise
See burning life

On night blow and go
Wish i never want forget
Silent day through inside
Feel the sky scared blaze

When is no lying true
Because the fate in the world
Only men trying to keep
On the time can never heal


8.Excalibur

Unknown heir
Orphaned page
A King to be
Come his Age
For God's sake

Sorcerer
Sword in Stone
Release will
Bring the Throne
For the Chosen One

The Almighty will point out
The only royal blood in the crowd

Excalibur
Sword of the kings
Take me on your wings
Back where I belong
Excalibur

Unworthy
Bound to fail
Noble Heart
Bound to gain
Challenge your faith!

Sorcerer
Sword in Stone
Release it
Ascend the Throne and
Take the crown

The Almighty now throws the dice
Arthur the man without a vice

Precious Sword
Arthur's hand
He deserves
To rule the land
Lead Britannia

Excalibur lights up the sky
Hard times have been passing by


9.The House

I'm riding through the night, a friend has called me
I see the moonless sky, the stars shine bright
The house before me, fog hangs over
I'm standing there alone in the dark

I ring the bell
He opens the door
He looks like death
No shadow on the floor

It seems life's gone out of his body
And madness has now taken control

Pale and grey
A weird mind
His sister is dead
And I'm so blind

Deep in the house
She's lying there
This bird of happiness
With long black hair

[Chorus:]
Silent screams out of the distance
It seems the walls would talk to me
Whispering voices out of the grave
It seems the house can't set me free

Horror running through my veins
As I see my friend going insane

Pale and grey
He's standing there
Scratching and moaning,
Disturbing the air

He knows that he buried his sister alive
But as he sees her he knows that he'll die

[Chorus:]
Silent screams out of the distance
It seems the walls would talk to me
Whispering voices out of the grave
It seems the house can't set me free

And it's burning...


10.Circle Of Witches

The foul smell of evil hangs over the moores
Where in a lonely hut witches dwell.
Repelling creatures ageless feared and fitted
With powers from the depths of hell.
Once a noble man a baron brother of the king himself
Visited the witches on a daark dark night.
He asked assist to gain the throne
He sold his soul to win a fight.
The days getting short and nights getting colder
winter has come, the sun is too weak
The forcees of night are now growing stronger
Searching for souuls for men blind with greed
Three witchees stand in a circle of evil
Tongues speaking words old and unknown
Call for a demon to serve in their daark spell
Fulfill what they owe to get what men own
I'll be king, I want the power, I will change my fate
Magic's on my side foreveer, so the witches say
Time is right to gane the throne, I'll take my brother down
I'll be king to rule the land, yes I'll take the crown

[Chorus:]
I've lost my soul
I've lost control
To the circle of witches
My life is black
There's no way back
From the circle of witches
circle of witches
circle of witches
circle of witches - never again

 


11.Valhalla

A sultry haze hangs in the air
A lightning storm cuts through the sky
Thunder, the master, calling for the clouds
Thunder, your master, summons you to this place

Boldly tread this fearless path
Don't fear the giant's wrath

Over the mountains
The sun rises up
A castle of gold
Shines through the clouds

The gods awaken
Out of their dreams
Crossing the vally
To the rainbow bridge

Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla

Shrouded from the pale cold night
In the east you'll see its blinding light
From Dusk to Dawn - in peace and serenity
Follow the King and dwell with me

Boldly tread this fearless path
Don't fear the giant's wrath

Over the mountains
The sun rises up
A castle of gold
Shines through the clouds

The gods awaken
Out of their dreams
Crossing the vally
To the rainbow bridge

Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla
Valhalla


12.Son Of Evil

Unborn child of the coming darkness
Would you guide us through the time of dreariness

Face like an angel
Sing the Sabbath song
The power of evil
Poor child of sin

Licking my blood - this shadow of madness
Stealing my breath and leaving me soulless

[Chorus:]
I'm the fear
Deep in your soul
Cause I'm the son of evil
I'm the hate
I'll bring you to death
Cause I'm the son of evil

This nightmare roars - feeding despair
Breathing fire - disturbing the air

Face like a creature
Sing the Sabbath song
This Jesus of ruin
Praying with Judas tongue

My funeral is open and I'm buried alive
Birds singing poems of my satanic life

[Chorus:]
I'm the fear
Deep in your soul
Cause I'm the son of evil
I'm the hate
I'll bring you to death
Cause I'm the son of evil

 


13.The Curse Of Jacques

You say that we sold our soul to the devil, that we're out of control
Your torture my brothers, torture my sisters, kill all friends
You say that we worship a god, like a cat, a devil in disguise
You execute my family, steal their breath, and burn them till death

I'm burning, I'm dying,
I'm burning, I'm dying,
Oh Lord, won't you help me
I'm burning, I'm dying,

When I feel my end is near
When I feel the reaper's here
Crackling fire I can hear

When I feel my end is near
When I feel the reaper's here
I watch the demons
Dancing round my tears

I'm innocent - it's not true I never prayed
We will all be treated the same way at Doomsday
I curse Pope and King - you won't make it another year
The Last Judgement will decide who was wrong or who was right


14.Battle Of Bannockburn

The wind lashed in our faces
The English found our traces
On moss-covered land
Scotland we defend
At Stirling bridge we try to last
But we fail to stand fast
Blood mingles with pouring rain
Writing tales of pain

Help - Else we will perish
Help - Else we will vanish
Look - Heaven's sign
Look - Ship's graceful lines

White knights appear
Silhouetted against the dark
In the battle of Bannockburn
The table turns

Few knights appear
But masters of the fight
In the battle of Bannockburn
The table turns

They draw their glaming swords
Two knights one horse
How they swing their flail
Ending the bloody tale
Just like a bad dream
English disappear in fog
Finally - Victory
Highlanders' victory

1.Grave In The No Man's Land

Lost in the no man's land
Died in agony and pain
I raise my hands into the sky
Shattered eyes asking please why?

Why am I
My life to desecrate
Why I am
Travel now to heaven

The ferryman unleash the beast
I've paid my one way fare
I look into the eyes of the holy priest
My screams disturbing the air
He turns around and takes my hand
Leading me to my grave in the no man's land

Lost heart in a faithless time
Buried in the deep of the universe
I'm nailed to my own fate
Soulless mind and endless hole

Why am I
My life to desecrate
Why I am
Travel now to heaven

The ferryman unleash the beast
I've paid my one way fare
I look into the eyes of the holy priest
My screams disturbing the air
He turns around and takes my hand
Leading me to my grave in the no man's land

I'm dancing, I'm crying
I'm laughing, I'm dying
I'm celebrating the end
At my grave in the no man's land

The ferryman unleash the beast
I've paid my one way fare
I look into the eyes of the holy priest
My screams disturbing the air
He turns around and takes my hand
Leading me to my grave in the no man's land


2.Yesterday


Ref:
Yesterday, when you left me on my own
Yesterday, when you left my heart alone
Yesterday, no, yesterday, no no

Yesterday, when your love was very true
Yesterday, when we knew what to do
Yesterday, no, yesterday, no

Yesterday, in my mind it's still alive
Yesterday, when we were husband and wife
Yesterday, no, yesterday, no

Yesterday, yesterday
Yesterday, yesterday
Yesterday, no, yesterday, no

(guitar solo)

Ref.

No - no - no - no
No - no - no - no
Yesterday, no, yesterday, no

Yesterday


3.Morgane Le Fay

My ruby eyes can see
All secrets and stories never told
With shadows I dance
Sombre castle, Soul aglow
I have the power
I have the might
Morgane le Fay

When I felt my father death
The Dragon put my mother in disgrace
Down by the fireplace
Sowed seed of my evil ways

Don't mess with me
Do not cross my way
Or you may play a part
In my malicious game

I am the devil in disguise
I bring thr evil to your life
Listen, listen - listen what I say
My name is - Morgane le Fay

I spoil all happiness
I reveal unvarnished truth
Call me the Black Nun
I am invincible, I never lose


4.Symphony Of Death

Fight for God's country
Stand strong, pride you feel
Obey march, raise your banners
Kill die in the fields of steel
Truth faith, what you fight for
Kill rape, eternal glory
Blood gore, shining heroes
Spell write a bloody history

[Chorus:]
We fight, we kill we die
We play, we dance
To a symphony of death

Wars pride, waving colours
Pain Death, final solution
Look see what are we doing
Kill die for false illusions
Tears fall for dying children
No more human sanity
Take life, sacrifice your child

[Chorus]



5.Witch Hunter

Have you seen that man
Wrapped up all in black
He waits for his chance
Steps behind your back
He's the raper of the night
Never seen before
There's no warning when he comes
Lock your bedroom door

Jumped the garden wall
Did you hear him howl
Waits outside the hall
Can't you see him frown
Well, this guy is on the prowl
For evil and for lust
If you meet him, pray to god
Or you will be lost

He's a witch hunter, witch hunter
Witch hunter, witch hunter

Through the kitchen door
He's just found his way
Now the clock strikes four
Tonight he will stay
Stepping down your marble hall
He wears a sharpened knife
You can say I told you so
He wants you for his wife

 


6.The Dark Of The Sun

Get your steel brothers
We must fight
Hakon tries to steal
Scotish right
Norwegian soldiers on our land
Steal our Islands
We must defend
Their number's too great we can't win
God in heaven
Send a sign

Kneel and pray - the sun turns black
God with us - we must attack

[Chorus:]
In the dark of the sun
[4 times]

Alex king you did
win the day
You bet Hakon and
Proud Norway
We swept them off the battlefield
In their blood they lie
Death is dealed
Their king died on foreign land
United we were strong
we did stand

[Chorus:]
In the dark of the sun
The enemy's defeated run
In the dark of the sun
The battle has been won


7.Knights Of The Cross

It is the end, of the eleventh century
The Christians rule
Europian countries
The Pope is the head of church
Representing God on earth
His words are the law
His mind is set on war

In the name of God they kill
In the name of God they rape
Blood leads to glory - for God's sake

Knights, knights of the cross
Murder, murder
Fight to defend Jerusalem
From the unholy devils

Pope and priests cry out for holy war
God and Jesus they think to be fighting for
The Islam conquered Byzanz
Slaughter Christians everywhere
Knights of the Cross invade the East
Whrer the Islam dwells

Knights in the name of
God, stab women and men
Burning, raping, eating human flesh
Satanic bloodlust in their eyes
The first crusade is won
The knights realize too late
Their ankles are covered with Christian blood


8.Twilight Of The Gods

Stack stout logs for me in pile
By the shore of the Rhine
High and bright let a fire blaze
For the noble hero
With his sword he shall burn
The horse by his side
So cast your eyes on my pain and grief
Behold your eternal guilt

Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods

Feel my hatred, mighty gods
My screams break the silent air
I 'll take your gold, give it away
To free my self from the magic curse
You will burn deep in hell
For the murder of my love
Darkness near, the Rhine overflows,
Higher and higher, waves grow

Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods

Bright flames set fire to the hall
Valhalla's end is near
Gods and heroes are lost in the hall
See Valhalla's fall

Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods
Twilight of the gods


9.Rebellion (The Clans Are Marching)

Rumours know that rebellion will break out
Bonnie Prince Charles is in the highlands to claim his
crown no doubt
He raised his Standart at Glenfinnen calling to our pride
The Jacobites are gathering I'll be at their side

Armed and ready stand
My rights I must defend
Steel is in my hand

[Chorus:]
The clan's are marching `gainst the law
Bagpipers play the tunes of war
Death or glory i will find
Rebellion on my mind

The town of Edinburgh fell soon in our hands
Defeated the English at the Battle of Prestopans


10.The Grave Digger

Six feet under I'm still alive
Six feet under I've found my paradise
When I left, the skies were sober
I took this shrine last October
In this house of gloom and glory
I'm living now and tell my story
I've sold my soul, I've lived a lie
Come and hear my silent cry.

In the silence of the night
Where I shiver with affright
I reflect these wasted years
When I played with hopes and fears.

[Chorus:]
He took my life, I've lost control
He killed my wife, he sold my soul
The grave is open, the digger smiles
He takes me under, the deadly skies
The grave digger.

I'm shouting, crying, I feel the pain
I'm shouting, dying, I'm nameless brain
The chains of lies, no chance for heaven
All my sins are unforgiven
From time to time I'm going insane
I feel the hunger in my veins
To kill this nightmare in my head
And to save me from the dead

In the silence of the night
Where I shiver with affright
I reflect these wasted years
When I played with hopes and fears.

[Chorus:]
He took my life, I've lost control
He killed my wife, he sold my soul
The grave is open, the digger smiles
He takes me under, the deadly skies
The grave digger, the grave digger..

From time to time I'm going insane
I feel the hunger in my veins
To kill this nightmare in my head
And to save me from the dead


11.Rheingold

In the depths of the river
Deep in the waves
Three rhinemaidens are singing
Songs of the brave

An ugly dwarf
Greedy with pleasure
Desires the gold,
Tries to steal the treasure

Guardians of the holy treasure
No cheat should steal it from the river
Gleaming glow in the water's depth
Shines brightly, bravely through the waves

Rheingold, Rheingold
Rheingold, Rheingold

Who denies love
Who forfeits its power
Can attain the magic
To forge a ring

If you are enarmoured
And longing for love
Let's see my handsome
What you look like

Guardians of the holy treasure
No cheat should steal it from the river
Gleaming glow in the water's depth
Shines brightly, bravely through the waves

Rheingold, Rheingold
Rheingold, Rheingold

Aren't you afraid
Brood of the waters
Then conquer the dark,
And I'll put out your light

I wrench the gold from the rock
Forge the ring of revenge
For hell and the devil
I curse my love

Guardians of the holy treasure
No cheat should steal it from the river
Who from the Rheingold will fashion the ring
Win the world's wealth and will be king


12.The Round Table (Forever)

Table of the finest wood
Mankind has ever seen
Without head and without foot
A sign of eternity

All knights are equal here
And so is even the King
Our swords point to its center
Giving us the power to win

Together we stand
Steel in our hands
Fighting forever
Forever we stand

Forever we fight
Side by side
Forever we stand
Forever we fight

Give us the wisdom - Almighty Lord

To make out wrong from right
Give us the will to choose the Right
And the readiness to sacrifice

We become free in serving each other
We're Camelots pounding heart
Round table of true brothers
Until death do us part


13.Heavy Metal Breakdown

Metal invasion that's all what we need
Metal dominion that's all what we want
We come to give you rules and principles
What you have to do
We come to shake your hands and legs
As fast as we can do

Ref:
Heavy Metal Breakdown (4 times)

Women and children want to hear the noise
Women and children want to feel the beat
Bang your heads as fast as you can
Until you're breaking down
The night is long, the show is right
Bang until you die

Ref.
