01. Fall Of Dorkas

Fall of Dorkas 05:16 Hide lyrics
Creation of the guardian, the force of dark and light
Two souls to rule the elements to fight a constant fight
One soul to save the light, one soul to serve the dark
Rivals to eternity, the saviour and the shark

The gods will fight, the titans clash in time and galaxies
The serpent and its tamer a fight so endlessly
Falling, fate is calling, the liar, tamed in fire

The fall of Dorkas, the curse of selfish pride
Reign of darkness, condemned to fear the light
Heart of blackness caught in eternal hate
Armageddon fullfills the longawaited fate

Dorkas as the chancellor, a charlatan surpreme
A godforsaken liar, intrigue, sly and mean
He made his bid for power, dropping down his mask
The uncrowned king of failures, Walloron kicked his ass

[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Rolf]

3.7 billion years, Armageddon's here
Madness shakes the underworld, they are lost in fear
The fire of catastrophy opens up the gate
Evil souls will drown in hell and Dorkas' soul will fade

[Pre]
[Chorus]

02. When Time Runs Out

Now! The age of falling
The final hours of the world we see
Here! Fate is calling
The horror of a longtold prophecy

Time! Is running short now
To find out if mankind's fit to learn
Down! Soul-destruction
If pride is blindand stuns the will to turn

The final hours, the final night
The final trial if you'll stand the light

When time runs out
When the sky comes down
When the ball will burst
When it shakes the ground down to the core

War! The bombs are falling
Brother kills thy brother endlessly
Death! Massive destruction
A mess of blood that stains the boiling sea

[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Rolf]

Trapped! A poisoned world view
That is so blind that it will never make you see
Feel! Trust in yourself
And universal truth will hit you finally

[Pre]
[Chorus]

03. Timeriders

[Leadbreak Thilo]

Black hole's opened in a whirl of time
Galaxy riders, longawaited sign

Defending watchers of the glorious stars
Freeing the worlds from the gods of Mars

Watching
Ruling

Timeriders, ruling the stars
Nightgliders, fighting back the gods of Mars

Leadbreak Thilo
Twinsolo Rolf

Erasing the evil without any sound
Burning their lair down to the ground

[Pre]
[Chorus]

04. Into The Fire

Here comes the finale, time to pay your dues
A law without mercy, you have to take the truth
No worldly powers could force the fate
Universal judgement of the highest grade

Time's right to find out if you're wrong or right
Time is running short now, beware the law will strike
Evil souls are fading in the flames
No more lies and no more games

Into the fire
Blackened hearts will burn
Into the fire
The flames of no return

Drop all your blindness and your soul could last
Being proud and headstrong means you'll dying fast
Drowning in the fires your sad and final price
Melting in the pyre to burn away your lies

[Pre]

The true and final judgement is about to come
They are judge and jury, they are all in one
Deviding good from evil, deviding truth from lie
A case of survival or a "Go to hell and die!"

[Pre]
[Chorus]

05. Revolution

You say you want a revolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Alright Alright

[Leabreak Rolf]

You say you got a real solution
Well you know
we'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know
We're doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be alright
Alright Alright

[Leadbreak Thilo]

You say you'll change the constitution
Well you know
we all love to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know know it's gonna be alright
Alright Alright

[Leadbreak Thilo]

06. The Final Waltz

Instrumental

07. Tsar

At the day of his coronation
He sank down in deepest dispair
Hundreds of russians were dying
By rapture, the sun and its glare

After several years of waiting
He came, the heir to the throne
Their son was born as a bleeder
His parents so sad and alone

The tsarina felt what was coming
A vision that darkened her soul
The tsar was given a warning
Intrigues so darkened and cold

Destiny called, the empire fell
The two-headed eagle that died
Bullets of hate were erasing their lifes
No prayer and nobody cried

[Leadbreak Rolf]

In their darkest hour the "staretz" appeared
He saved Aleksej from death
Rasputins' power, a dissolate life
Sentenced to take his last breath

The world was on war, drowning in flames
Gasbombs, horror and death

[Leadbreak Thilo]

The reds brought on revolution
He decided to take his discharge
But they placed him under detention
The red star, its idols should march
The Romanows took up their cross

The desaster was to foresee
On the 16th July 1918
They were slaughtered, a whole dynasty

[Pre]
[Chorus]

08. The Hussar

Mordant wall of smoke, barrels glow, shot their load
Gunfire takes your breath, balls of lead causing death
Thunderstorm breaks loose, the slaughter's son, life's on the loose
Sounding the attack, soldiers fall, back to back

The roaring horde is near, pounding hooves, mortal fear
The soldiers bravely stand, they try hard to defend

Till the end!

Riding the attack
Yelling screams of the fallen
Thunder, blood and pain
Madness reigns, hell is calling now

Thunder shakes the ground, a deadly force, pound by pound
Frightened, nerves are blank, horseman ride, hit the flank
Cold sweat down their neck, death will ride one last attack
Fearsome battle cry, flashing guns, soldiers die

Tell me why!

[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Rolf]

Horror, death and pain, the devil smiles, so what's the gain?
Stretching out his claw to feed his laughing greedy jaw

Greedy jaw!

[Chorus]

09. The Guardian

Before the darkness, before the light
The guardians' soul stood the sands of time
He ruled the void, he ruled the dark
All came to birth, the holy spark

Watch out, be strong, choose! when the war is on
Watch out, time's long, until all evil is gone

Rise or fall, standing proud or losing all
Die or live, destruction takes and freedom gives

He watches dark, he watches light
Two souls to proof, wrong or right
A constant fight, a war foretold
A settled plan, what future holds

[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Rolf]

The final plan, the final fight
Casting out, dark or light
The lie will fall, truth will stand
The serpent dies by its own hand

[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Twinsolo Rolf]

10. Return Of The Gods

Ruling the stars, invisible watchers
Since the beginning of time
A mighty weapon, the cosmical gender
Defending the truth and its sign

The falling of stars, the pain of its children
It's time for the gods to return
Hunting the serpent, erasing its madness
The structure of evil to burn

Holy laws to set their course
Wings of steel, a force so real

The final fight, the force of light
The fiend to ban, to rule again

The gods will return, all evil to burn
Striking the underworlds' lair
To take back their crown, the terror to drown
Sons of the sun in its glare

The gods will return, the evil will learn
Persistance is ruling their fight
The evil's on flame, erasing its name
They are standing in pride with their shimmering armour of light

[Leadbreak Thilo]
[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Thilo]

11. Silent Killer

Did you ever see shoes are lying in the streets?
Brand new clothing, a pilgrim with no deeds? No way!

Did you ever think, who would throw it away?
A case of confusion? Madness on its way?

Silence, dead of the night
Killers, lurking behind

Darkness falls, the serpent strikes
A secret calls in the mask of the night

Why should it happen a hundred times a year?
A secret behind that should rouse our fear?

[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Leadbreak Rolf]

Millions of people disappearing year by year
Leaving no trace or did they just go out of here?
Long told stories tell a blackened man awaits
Minotaurs meal, through bones and blood he wades

[Pre]
[Chorus]

12. Victory

The gods of past and future, returning from the sky
Defenders of the holy, they are soaring on high
All slaves of evils' kingdom, dropping down like flies
The final raging battle that's when the evil dies

The poison of illusion, the world falls asleep
The evil reigns its kingdom by cunning and deceit
The force of seduction, chaos in the game
Man is trapped in blindness, praising Dorkas' name

Darkness falls and light will rise
The force of judgement finally strikes

Victory

Selfdestructive mankind's like wax in his hands
War and plain destruction are fit to set an end
A vulnerable system to serve the evil's way
Raising all its madness until the final day

[Pre]
[Chorus]

Terror reigns in the prophecy
"Babylon" will fall, so plain to foresee
A nightmare rules the mirage of gold
Slipping to damnation by trying to hold

[Leadbreak Rolf]

The rivalry is dying, the longawaited end
Destruction of all evil, no power could defend
Dorkas' crown is falling, he's melting down in pain
His kingdom falls to pieces, dying in the flame

[Pre]
[Chorus]
