01. Freakshow

From far away
You can hear their sound
As every year they come to town
With a special kind of entertainment
To sell dreams that become nightmares
Horrendous figures, unmasked evil
Be aware to be scared

Creatures of the night
Children of the underworld
They all come to the light
This is a freakshow
Live in the spotlight
Just for a short time
To scare and amaze
Welcome to the freakshow

When the night falls
And the moon will rise
They prepare for the show
Come inside and let your blood freeze
Let the naked fear grab you
Evil faces, black masquerade
Are you stunned, are you scared?

Creatures of the night
Children of the underworld
They all come to the light
This is a freakshow
Live in the spotlight
Just for a short time
To scare and amaze
Welcome to the freakshow

They live in a dark world
Captured in pain
Disowned by society
Their own mother’s shame
Hidden in blame
They end in the freakshow

Creatures of the night
Children of the underworld
They all come to the light
This is a freakshow
Live in the spotlight
Just for a short time
To scare and amaze
Welcome to the freakshow

02. Valley Of Death

One hundred left behind
As guardians we were assigned
There’ll be no threat, everyone thought
Until their army got within eyeshot

Last night we dammed the stream
Flooding the road and completing the scheme
We’re wearing shoes prepared with nails
Our grip is strong and so we’ll prevail

Blaring battle horns
Prayers to the lord
We’re not afraid of dying
We roar our battle cry
And raise our banners high
We stand death-defying

Through ice and snow we strike
It’s time to make our stand
We hunt for the kill
We are prepared to fight
We take our fate in our hands
In the Valley of Death

They are ten thousand strong
We’ll show them where they belong
They are doomed to pay the price
‘Cause they have no grip on the slippery ice

There’s no escape for them now
The field is ready to plow
We attack them now with all our heart
Let’s fight them till they fall apart

Blaring battle horns
Prayers to the lord
We’re not afraid of dying
We roar our battle cry
And raise our banners high
We stand death-defying

Through ice and snow we strike
It’s time to make our stand
We hunt for the kill
We are prepared to fight
We take our fate in our hands
In the Valley of Death

With the ice on our side
We’re ready to fight
In the Valley of Death
We’re making a stand
And fight till the end
Till there’s no one left to fight
Or we die side by side
With honor and pride
In the Valley of Death

03. Digital Slavery

Pale blank faces
Dimly lit by the screen
Weary eyes hasting about
Fueled only by caffeine

Addicted to the World Wide Web
Ignoring the social decay
Logged in for your constant fix
Every minute of every day

Connected to the world
Yet isolated from society
Forever alone
Trapped inside this virtual grave
Your battery’s slowly dying
You are a digital slave

Trolling under an alias
It’s the strongest you’ll ever feel
Hide behind your anonymity
‘Cause you’re too scared to face what’s real

Rotting in your lonely cell
Online from dusk till dawn
Erasing your human hard drive
Till everything is gone

Connected to the world
Yet isolated from society
Forever alone
Trapped inside this virtual grave
Your battery’s slowly dying
You are a digital slave

04. Son Of Sam

I love to hunt
And prowling in the streets
Looking for fair game
And for tasty meat

Women of Queens
Are the prettiest of ‘em all
Go out and kill them
Said father Sam

I am a monster
The Beelzebub
I am the reaper
A chubby behemoth

I am the son of Sam
I will kill you all
My .44 will decline the love
I am the son of Sam
And follow his command
Oh please help me
When will it end?

He keeps me locked up
In the attic till dark
I don’t wanna kill anymore
But I must honor father Sam

I am a monster
The Beelzebub
I am the reaper
A chubby behemoth

I am the son of Sam...

05. My Final Stand

I’ve reached the final chapter
Of my journey through the dark
My body’s covered in scars
Telling tales of an endless war

No brothers left to walk by my side
Yet I still carry on
To face the ultimate fight

This is my final stand
The final chapter
When life comes to an end
Death is my savior

As I march through this ashen wasteland
With nothing more but my sword in hand
I gaze upon these blood-soaked plains
And see the faces of the fallen men

Haunting visions tearing at my will
I’m on the verge of giving in
Yet there’s one last foe to kill

This is my final stand...

Here I stand on the hill of scattered bones
Blood dripping from my blade
I face the unknown
How many more will fall by my hand?
When will I be defeated? When will I meet my end?

Footsteps approaching
Is he the one?
A grim determination in his eyes
It shall be done

This is my final stand...

06. The Wicked Force

Smiling on TV or public events
Encouraging slogans and speeches
Noble acts for freedom
Legal wars for democracy
Illegal deals behind the scene

They are just robots behind the mask
Wired to destroy

Soldiers of the wicked force
They act with no remorse
Soldiers of the wicked force
Obeying the lords of war

Nobel prizes for warlords and for their friends
Million dollar elections
Just to bend the laws
They promise they do their best
For a save and brave new world

They are just robots behind the mask
Wired to destroy

Soldiers of the wicked force
They act with no remorse
Soldiers of the wicked force
Obeying the lords of war

07. Cad Goddeu

You’ve been a fool to steal
From the Lord of Annwn
He won’t ignore your foolishness

He will go to war
To bring us down is what he swore
We have to be ingenious

I command you to walk
And fight at our side
March ahead of me
And attack with all your might

In the war of the trees
Oak and willow fight
In the war of the trees
For Gwydyons life
Privets versus giants
Blood and resin spill
When the trees are raised to life

The war went on all night
With still no end in sight
We need to settle this differently

We shall choose the game
Of guessing our companion’s name
The right guess leads to victory

I command you to walk
And fight at our side
March ahead of me
And attack with all your might

In the war of the trees
Oak and willow fight
In the war of the trees
For Gwydyons life
Privets versus giants
Blood and resin spill
When the trees are raised to life

Your companion bears
An alder branch’s bloom
He’s revealed himself
That will be your doom
‘Cause this symbol, I know
Belongs to the blessed crow
This giants name is...

In the war of the trees
Oak and willow fight
In the war of the trees
For Gwydyons life
Privets versus giants
Blood and resin spill
When the trees are raised to life

Bran is thy name
And victory shall be mine

10. Superhero

Another day goes by
Without any meaning, just dreams
My life ripples on and on
I’m sitting home all night
Watching TV, drinking coke
The 4 Walls around me closing in
I have no friends at all
And no one that would call

But when my conscience fades
I drift into my own world
Where I’m a strong man, a hero, a king

Oh, I dream I could be a superhero
Made of steel and fly away
A living miracle
Hunting bad guys and kiss the girl in the end
Oh, I wish I could be a superhero

But night is running fast
Reality grabbing me again
I’m a normal guy at last
And no one cares about me here

But when their conscience fades
They are in my dreamworld
Here I’m a strong man, a hero, a king

Oh, I dream I could be a superhero
Made of steel and fly away
A living miracle
Hunting bad guys and kiss the girl in the end
Oh, I wish I could be a superhero

11. Heaven Falls Down

I’m running through the streets
To the next shelter
Before they let loose their helter skelter
I hear a roaring in the sky
It’s coming closer
The day of judgement will come
Bombs are falling and then...

Heaven comes down
Sirens are screaming
I fall to the ground
As fire rages
I want out of here
Heaven falls down
People are crying
Within the ashes of doom
So many dying

Dull impacts everywhere
The bombs are screaming
In the raging firestorm
Just dead and bleeding
I hear their crying in the night
It’s getting louder
The day of judgement is here
In the glow of Dresden

Heaven comes down
Sirens are screaming
I fall to the ground
As fire rages
I want out of here
Heaven falls down
People are crying
Within the ashes of doom
So many dying
