Tracks



01. Back Into Mystery

Do you believe in a life after death?
Is there a hope in the dark?
Do you believe that we'll all meet again?
Reaching the skies of a brave new world
Silence and pain
Silent sadness

Back into mystery, back in the origin of life
No more pain, no more cries
Now, he's back in the angel's arms

My destiny was to open that door
My destiny is to suffer much more
Facing reality, facing the truth
One day I'll never forget
Silence and pain
Silent sadness

Back into mystery, back in the origin of life
No more pain, no more cries
Now, he's back in the angel's arms

02. Like A Lion In A Cage

Another time, another place
Where evil reigns
Killing and terror rules
The innocent always pay
I can't stand this world
No one seems to care
I wanna leave all this far behind
Is there a sense of honor/
Why don't we all live like brothers?

Like a lion in a cage
I just don't know who to praise
Like a lion in a cage
Nowhere to go, my silent rage
Like a lion in a cage!
Like a lion in, like a lion in
Like a lion in a cage!

I will prevail, the iron bars won't hold me back
Victorious, I'll break free out of my mental jail
We are born alone, as we'll die alone
Only the strong will survive
But hold the weakest's hand
Why don't we all live like equals?

Like a lion in a cage
I just don't know who to praise
Like a lion in a cage
Nowhere to go, my silent rage
Like a lion in a cage!
Like a lion in, like a lion in
Like a lion in a cage!

I can't stand this world
No one seems to care
I wanna leave all this far behind
Is there a sense of honor?
Why don't we all live like brothers?

Like a lion in a cage
I just don't know who to praise
Like a lion in a cage
Nowhere to go, my silent rage
Like a lion in a cage
Nothing seems to cure my pain
Though my roars are real
I'm a wounded beast with scars that never heal
Like a lion in, like a lion in, like a lion in a cage!
Lion in a cage!

03. Only One Commandment

In this world of madness
Where sharks and predators rule
We have to be united
We'll never kneel to anyone

Only one commandment
Burning every book of rules
Listen to your heart and soul
Only one commandment
Go against the crowd of fools
Listen to your heart and soul

Raise your fist, we stand strong
Every nations, hear this wild call
Don't give in, claim your ground
We all carry the rebel flag

Only one commandment
Burning every book of rules
Listen to your heart and soul
Only one commandment
Go against the crowd of fools
Listen to your heart and soul

04. Seven Samurai

Coming from the hill
A farmer looks for help
He needs warriors, he seeks a valiant soul
Only one man heard his call
They will find six other brave samurai

They come to help, teaching art of war
Battle for honor, protecting lords
They come to fight and to set them free
Marauding bandits will know defeat
Seven Samurai

Training paysans to kill enemies
Rising wall of spears to defend their life
Fortifications block the strike
Many assailants die while crossing the moats

They come to help, teaching art of war
Battle for honor, protecting lords
They come to fight and to set them free
Marauding bandits will know defeat
Seven Samurai

Now, the village is free, fearless and proud
Robbers perished in the flames of revenge!

They come to help, teaching art of war
Battle for honor, protecting lords
They come to fight and to set them free
Marauding bandits will know defeat
Seven Samurai

05. Fifth Son Of Winterdoom

This is my own requiem
This is the curse of my life
The dark fate, the tale of my clan
My message to God
Can you deliver my soul?
From that pain I can't fight anymore

I was born as last and lonely wolf, in a land of wind and snow
Where all castles are made out of ice and my dreams no longer grow
I was raised, used to the harsh cold
Hidden tears flooding my heart
For the curse decides the way to go
Left alone, forever lost in a land of ice and snow
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom

Precious laughs and tender words
All has been taken away
The Horseman of Death always winds
Behind black clouds my sun disappeared
Will I find peace in this realm?
In the frozen season of my darkest days

I was born as last and lonely wolf, in a land of wind and snow
Where all castles are made out of ice and my dreams no longer grow
I was raised, used to the harsh cold
Hidden tears flooding my heart
For the curse decides the way to go
Left alone, forever lost in a land of ice and snow
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom
I'm the fifth son of Winterdoom

06. Angel Eyes, Demon Soul

A pretty girl, the sweetest face you've ever seen
You thought you dream but that's in fact your worst nightmare
The poison's in her veins, on your soul she will feed
Don't listen to this siren's chant
No mercy till she brings you down!

Angel eyes, demon soul
Beauty but beast inside
Angel eyes, demon soul
Behind the mask, the perfect traitor

Vicious words, that gorgeous smile fools the world
She plays with you like a puppet, you will lose your mind
Don't look into her angel eyes, her heart is just a piece of ice
Don't listen to this mermaid's cries
She'll kick you once you're on the ground

Angel eyes, demon soul
Beauty but beast inside
Angel eyes, demon soul
Behind the mask, the perfect traitor

07. Rock Religion

Open your eyes, don't trust what they preach
God never wrote, any human books
You have to believe in the strength of our soul
No one can steal your fate and dreams
We are born to rock this world, we are children of the night
With an iron heart we'll fight, with a rebel yell, we're proud!

No prophets, no leaders
Escape from the illusions
No more lies, one nation
Follow my rock religion!

Walk your crusade, lead your own life
Don't be afraid, to be part of the dark
They don't decide what is wrong what is right
We'll blow them away with this powerful sound
We are born to rock this world, we are children of the night
With an iron heart we'll fight, with a rebel yell, we'll rise!

No prophets, no leaders
Escape form the illusions
No more lies, one nation
Follow my rock religion!

08. Father Farewell

A goodbye I can't believe
Taken away too soon from me
You stand in my heart and soul
Love is stronger than death

You were my father, my best friend
But you left without farewell
I just hope it's not the end
Do you feel my endless pain?
Only memories remain

One day I can't forget
You were so lonely, I've been so late
You stay my father, my best friend
In Heaven, we'll all meet again

You were my father, my best friend
But you left without farewell
I just hope it's not the end
Do you feel my endless pain?
Only memories remain

09. Eagle Of Fire

When the sadness invades your heart
Always listen to your inner voice
When the pain tries to rule your soul
Let no one steal your precious goal
Forget and forgive and reach for the sky
Destroy all your fears to unchain your mind

Fly with the eagle of fire
Reaching through clouds and the storm
Rise as the eagle of fire
And watch the world from above
Reaching for better and more

When you feel weak and lonely
Let no one bring you down
Don't be scared to get burned
Dare to dive, you're invincible
Release yourself from regrets and guilt
Believe in your strength to fulfill your dreams

Fly with the eagle of fire
Racing through clouds and the storm
Rise as the eagle of fire
And watch the world from above
Reaching for better and more

10. Reconquista 1492

Glory and honor for God and country
Jesus saves, I keep faith
For my country and the crown, with the blade in my hand
I will lead the reconquest
Driven by the prophecy
Victory at Covadonga!
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Reconquista, Reconquista, Reconquista
In the name of God and my Holy Land
Reconquista, Reconquista, Reconquista
In the name of God and my Holy Spain
Hail, hail, hail Reconquista
Hail, hail, hail, reconquer
Hail, hail, hail Reconquista
Hail, hail, hail, reconquer

Glory and honor for God and country
Middle ages, darkest tales
Christian kingdoms reconquered
Jesus saves, I will pray
All invaders must be out!
We will never pay again
For the right to believe in our own Lord

Reconquista, Reconquista, Reconquista
In the name of God and my Holy Land
Reconquista, Reconquista, Reconquista
In the name of God and my Holy Spain
Hail, hail, hail Reconquista
Hail, hail, hail, reconquer
Hail, hail, hail Reconquista
Hail, hail, hail, reconquer

11. Run To Me

Feel the heat, feel the beat
Of a heart that slowly dies
Take my hand and follow my lead
Running wild, running free
Now it's time to say good bye
Come with me, you'll conquer the world
Do you fear the unknown?
Relief your thirsty soul
No matter what you've left
You have to break the spell

Run away, you've got to run away
Run to me, I am your destiny (Run to me)
Run away, you've got to run away
Run to me, forget your loneliness (Run away)

Spread your wings, fly away
till you find the promised land
Now it's time to fulfill your dreams
Trust (in) your fate, it's not too late
You and me are meant to be
No more tears, I'll be there for you
Do you fear the unknown?
Relief your thirsty soul
No matter what you've left
You have to break the spell

Run away, you've got to run away
Run to me, I am your destiny (Run to me)
Run away, you've got to run away
Run to me, forget your loneliness (Run away)

12. The Picture Of Dorian Grey

The mirror shows a beautiful good man
He has the power to seduce everyone
He made his cruel own world based on deceit
One stroke of his hand removes all innocence
But the picture is the evidence of his dreadful crimes and sin
The day Basil introduces him to the maleficent Lord Henry
He forever changed his way to live never ending pleasures and lust
Dark is the soul of that decadent man, don't ever meet this Devil's son

He will live forevermore, he will stay forever young
The painting shows his hidden face
A portrait of a tortured man
He will live forevermore
He will stay forever young
One last kill could end this game
Dorian's soul is doomed to Hell

He has to face Sybil's brother's avenge
No one can kill him, poor James ends up dead
But the man in the picture grows more and more hideous and old
Dorian stays the same, unchanged, nothing haunts him, no regrets
Basil saw the horrible truth, asking Grey to pray for forgiveness
In response, Dorian murders him, dark is the fate of that wicked man

He will live forevermore, he will stay forever young
The painting shows his hidden face
A portrait of a tortured man
He will live forevermore
He will stay forever young
One last kill could end this game
Dorian's soul is doomed to Hell

He resolves to amend his life but he can't confess his crimes
In a fury, he picked up a knife to destroy his evil painting
The servants found the portrait, unharmed, showing Dorian as a young lad
And an old ugly rotten man with the knife plunged into his heart

He won't live forevermore, he won't stay forever young
The painting showed his hidden face
A portrait of a tormented man
He won't live forevermore
He won't stay forever young
One last kill could break the curse
Dorian's soul is now in Hell.
