01. Let It Go

Driving to the top of the city,
Drive until I reach the view,
Where we used to try and see,
Our dream come true,

Stop the car, light a cigarette,
Fill the air with the radio,
And there's nothing I can do,
But think of you,

I was the one who talked about the other man,
I thought he was my friend, but you had other plans,
I just can't take that chance,
There ain't no looking back,
Just a victim of circumstance,
I helped you fall in love so,

Let it go!
Let it go! (Let it go!)
Let it go!
Let it go!
Let it go!

When I dial your telephone number,
It's like I'm never home,
But I know it isn't true,
What's he doing with you?

I don't like to sleep alone, no
Doesn't seem to bother you,
As long as you are having fun,
You don't care what you do,

I was the one who talked about the other man,
I thought he was my friend, but you had other plans,
It's all gone by so fast,
There ain't no looking back,
Just a victim of circumstance,
I helped you fall in love so,

Let it go! (Let it go!)
Let it go! (Ooh, Let it!)
Let it go! (Let it go!)
Let it go!

I just can't take that chance,
There ain't no looking back,
Just a victim of circumstance,
I helped you fall in love!

Let it go! (Let it go!)
Let it go!
Let it go! (Fall in Love!)
Let it go!
Let it go! (Oh you gotta!)
Let it go!
Let it go! (Let it go!)

02. Dark Desire

All night long, shout it out
Time for rock and roll
Got to know what it's about
Got to let it go

Sometime we called children
Bored of their lives
You've got that mad anger
All of your life

Dark!
Got a dark desire
You have joined the night
Rock!
Start a fire with rock
Start a fire tonight

Hit the road, move it out
How you want to feel?
Joining soon, makes you shout
So much honesty

Sometime we called children
Bored of their lives
You've got that mad anger
All of your life

Dark!
Got a dark desire
You have joined the night
Rock!
Start a fire with rock
Start a fire tonight

Sometime we called children
Bored of their lives
You've got that mad anger
All of your life

Dark!
Got a dark desire
You have joined the night
Rock!
Start a fire with rock
Start a fire tonight

03. 1000 Eyes

The engines are screaming
The red lights are warning the sky
The ground is now falling
Release the dragon that flies

Welcome to the flight tonight
We're in for some ride
Destination is black and white
Nowhere left you can hide

500 faces
1000 eyes
Look at the ticket
See what it buys

The storm is approaching
The dark clouds are choking the air
The tower is falling
The cold winds are calling beware

Hold on to your sanity
We are moving away
Believe in humanity
It's time we must pay

1000 cries
Crying for mercy
They harmonize

Think of what might have been
If the worlds collide
Think of what you have seen
Time will decide

We're going to light the sky
They all will feel us go
Don't even question why
No one will ever know

500 faces
1000 eyes
Feel the teardrops
They cut the ties

500 voices
1000 eyes
Crying for mercy
They harmonize

04. Face To Face

Talk tough, I win
And full of homicide
False fight, you're out
He won't let you decide

Shook out, knocked down
He laughed at fools smashed
Come round, look down
And lying in the trash

The skies are looming
Darker in his mind
As nightfall comes
He moves into the skyline
See the mindless
In his world of ice tonight
Terror in the night

Face to face
Without laws
Face to face
Hatred grows
Face to face
Face the light
Face to face

Breaking, smashing
He will assume his role
He is a killing machine
Way out of control

Dying voices
Cry out for life remain
Used of human souls
Go down in flames

The smell of farm whom
The Sun has gone down
Precious stable down
In every little town
They'll turn the wheels of life
With all their might
Praying to the night

Face to face
Without laws
Face to face
Hatred grows
Face to face
Face the light
Face to face

I want to kiss the night
The streets are cold
Don't ever quit the fight
No sense says sorry
May lose their field of might
It's going to say to you

The skies are looming
Ever darker in his mind
As nightfall comes
He moves into the skyline
See the mindless
In his world of ice tonight
Terror in the night

Face to face
Without laws
Face to face
Hatred grows
Face to face
Face the light
Face to face
Endless fight

05. Who Knows

I've been captured by fantasy
Woke up inside her jealousy

Who knows, what she needs
I am moving at my own speed
She spins a web inside my mind
But the spell of her dance is leaving me blind

Torn myself on with from her grasp
Get away, this tempting won't last

Who knows, what she needs
I turn around, she reaches for me
She spins a web inside my mind
But the spell of her dance is leaving me blind

Time to take a stand!
Chasing after me
Take a stand and see!
It isn't worth it
Time to take a stand!
How long? how long?
Try to make a scene!
It's a nightmare

Who knows, what she needs
I am moving at my own speed
She spins a web inside my mind
But the spell of her dance is leaving me blind

Time to take a stand!
It's happening to me
Take a stand and see!
She's not worth it
Time to take a stand!
How long? how long? how long?
Try to make a scene!
She's a nightmare

06. Ashes In The Sky

I never talk to guardian angels, never look at evil past
The dying swan of sad creation, going fast away
We are born again like a phoenix passing,
Vanish like a soldier's death,
Hear the breath of moving thunder.
Red hot blow the ashes to the sky...

Shadows of war, screamin' past lies
Shadows of war, emotional ties

It comes, a deeper nightmare.
Fly me away to the holy place
Can the keepers guide forever
Will they make us pay?
We are born again like a phoenix passing,
Vanish like a soldier's death,
Hear the breath of moving thunder.
Red hot blow the ashes to the sky...

Shadows of war, love has gone blind
Shadows of war, time out of mind

Can the keepers guide forever?
Will they make us pay?
We are born again like a phoenix passing,
Vanish like a soldier's death,
Hear the breath of moving thunder.
Red hot blow the ashes to the sky...

Shadows of war, time out of mind
Shadows of war, love has gone blind
Shadows of war, screamin' past lies
Shadows of war, emotional ties
Shadows of war, shadows of war
Shadows of war, shadows of war
Time out of mind

07. Black Star Oblivion

Burn through the night like a fireball
Nothing's gonna stop me
Fightin' through the humanless universe
See the fire in me

Rippin' through the sky and it never ends
Nothing's gonna stop me
Shout to the star an' they disappear
Wind spinnin' through me
I'm pullin' free, free from the mindless weight of gravity
I'm racin' fast, faster than any light you can see

Black star oblivion, stealing your mind
Black star oblivion, steal you blind

Burn through the night like a fireball
Nothin' gonna stop me
Fightin' through the humanless universe
See the fire in me
I'm pullin' free, free from the mindless weight of gravity
I'm racing fast, faster than any light you can see.

Black star oblivion, raiding your soul
Black star oblivion, takes control

Black star oblivion, I'm not to blame
Black star oblivion, livin' flame

Shoot on past the planets
Hey, the sun's gettin dim
I think I'm slowing down
Cold and empty all 'round

08. Street Life Dream

You think it's just joke
Maybe one big laugh
Anyway that we make it work
It ain't gonna last
Don't love like the common man
You're just a five time fool
Play it loose, I can understand
Why they call you cruel

Streetlife dream, nighttime passion
Downtown queen, steamy action
Her crazy leather life, just chrome and glass
She fits into the steel, forget the past

You know ya make me wanna scream
Wanna squeeze you tight
Like a figure in a distant dream
You fade into the night
Laser light cuts across the room
L Plays a hot guitar
Point to the midnightmoon
It's still too far

09. Complication

Throwing down the gauntlet now
Call the bluff of the liar
Saving lives, never run to hide
Death's door, opened with fire

You find that destiny controls reaction
Standing there with an upraised knife
Before, then in a sea of blood
Men without fear fight for the Earth

Seek and fight, don't wait to be found
Move to meet with the future
Hunt and trap, turn the tables on them
Turn back the tide of the looter

You find that destiny controls reaction
Standing there with an upraised knife
Before, then in a sea of blood
Men without fear fight for the Earth

Reason, pierce through all despair
Treason, lay the anger bare
Wearon, strike through the armor
Crimson, bathe in splendour

Before, then in a sea of blood
Standing there with an upraised knife
Before, then in a sea of blood
Men without fear fight for the Earth
Reason, pierce through all despair
Treason, lay the anger bare
Wearon, strike through the armor
Crimson, bathe in splendo
