Tracks



01. King For A Day

Can't change the past, the future's unknown
Don't turn your back, you threw the first stone

I gave you love - I give you hate
I've granted all your wishes
I gave you hope - I gave you pain
You are the Devil

You've reached the top - you sit on your throne
You're going down and you're going alone

I gave you love - I give you hate
And when your darkness fades away
I gave you hope - I give you pain
You better run

King for a day - it's your carnal desire
King for a day - I will call you a liar

Once there was love, now there is only doubt
Feel the anger taking over my faith

I gave you love - I give you hate
I'm counting all my scars
I gave you hope - I give you pain
Your life is war

When you see your dreams engulfed in flames
You'll see just my smile - there will be no rain

I gave you love - I give you hate
and now it's me against the world
I gave you hope - I give you pain
You better run

King for a day - it's your carnal desire
King for a day - I will call you a liar
King for a day
I've been broken and beat down
King for a day
I am no longer your clown

02. Rebel Faction

Stand by to rebel
There's no decline
No man will ever break my pride
Or take away all that is mine

Bring on the bullets
I will destroy
You've caused the damage
Now your claim is off the roof
I'll give you hell

This troupe will stand forever
Stand like a wall
The rebel faction

Gross violation
Constrained by law
You have no claim on me no matter
Who you are or what's your name

No where's the justice
In this foul play
I have no will to pay the bill
Bred in another place than me

So let us point the way
We are the people
The rebel faction

I see no limit - every second counts
We're full of spirit
'Cause we won't go astray

This troupe will stand forever
Stand like a wall
The rebel faction

03. When Death Comes Knocking

There's a sign in the sky
And the thunder is calling my name
When it comes to the point
Agony turns into pain

There's no surrender!
I know I'll never give in
I won't stop fightin'

When death comes knocking
I'll stand my ground
And I won't go down
My name stays immortal
When death comes knocking
I bend the rules
When death comes knocking

I can hide
I can run but the beast
Smells my blood in the wind
Hear the gasp
Hear it roar
This is my primal fear from within

There's no surrender!
I know I'll never give in
I won't stop fightin'

When death comes knocking
I'll stand my ground
And I won't go down
My name stays immortal
When death comes knocking
I bend the rules
When death comes knocking

When death comes knocking
I'll stand my ground
And I won't go down
My name stays immortal
When death comes knocking
I bend the rules
When death comes knocking

04. Alive & On Fire

The world's corruption will never change
Sitting still alive in an electric chair
History repeats, cheats and denies
No more toxic gas attacks
And no one died

Hate
And still religion
Praises holy war
My own Hell
Is running cold

In for the kill
Alive and on fire
Your own will
Alive and on fire
In for the kill
Takes me higher and higher
In for the kill
Alive and on fire

There ain't no cure
In the killing zone
The black car driving man
Is still digging for gold

No more heroes
In no mans land
We swallow
Poisoned water
Cash in hand

Hate
And still religion
Praises holy war
My own Hell
Is running cold

In for the kill
Alive and on fire
Your own will
Alive and on fire
In for the kill
Takes me higher and higher
In for the kill
Alive and on fire

05. Delivering The Black

The night was so black
As we've planned to attack
Like a bullet in the dark
A rock'n roll dream
And electric guitars hear
The Devil's dog bark

Nothing to lose
And nothing to prove
Standing here
Side by side in the rain
Traded our soul
And taking the toll
On our way to the promised land

We're run - with the Devil
We're delivering the black
We're run - the next level
Delivering the black

Our hearts full of vengeance
Fists in the air
The rock'n roll Heaven ahead
We made a deal with the Devil
For fortune and fame
And riding the dragon's head

Nothing to lose
And nothing to prove
Standing here
Side by side in the rain
Traded our soul
And taking the toll
On our way to the promised land

We're run - with the Devil
We're delivering the black
We're run - the next level
Delivering the black

Just one more dream
Like a black symphony
Fire and flames
To rock the world
Twenty years later
And nothing has changed
And there's still
A tattoo on my back

We're run - with the Devil
We're delivering the black
We're run - the next level
Delivering the black

06. Road To Asylum

Inside the black, a fight to survive
Who's the winner?
What's meant to be will find a way for sure

Sometimes it feels like the more you care
The more you get hurt
And now it's me against the world

On my way - chasing the wind
Never break the silence
Ont he road to asylum
People change, feelings change
I've survived my darkest hour
I will ride on
On the road to asylum

I've tried to stay away
From words like ever or never
Heaven is very hard to reach

When the trust is gone
There's nothing left to fight for
And now it's me against the world

On my way - chasing the wind
Never break the silence
On the road to asylum
People change, feelings change
I've survived my darkest hour
I will ride on
On the road to asylum

07. One Night In December

In the early freeze of Monday
I'm staring at the wall
The final days of mankind
At the end of our days

Hate - can't understand
What can we do about it
Can't receive a signal in the dark
Fate - we all are trapped in Armageddon
We've overrun the risk
We've gone too far

Nobody cared about the warning
It was so clear - searching for advice
Will there be another morning
Now we will pay the bill
We'll pay the prize

Will you hold on the flame
One night in December
It's a hymn for the haunted
One night in December
The final hour strikes

Surrounded by the darkness
I'm staring to the sky
Unknown constellation
We're drifting away

Hate - can't understand
What have we done
Can't receive a signal in the dark
Fate - accept that it's too late to run
We've overrun the risk
We've gone too far

Nobody cared about the warning
It was so clear - searching for advice
Will there be another morning
Now we will pay the bill
We'll pay the prize

Will you hold on the flame
One night in December
It's a hymn for the haunted
One night in December
The final hour strikes

08. Never Pray For Justice

We came to rock - we came to rule
There is no way to escape for you
We're heating up your nasty dreams
Never pray for justice

We're living in the darkness
Hunting in the shadows
Electrified from head to toe

We came to rock
We came to rule
We're made of fire

This world will fade away
Don't tell me there's another way
Our hell is running cold
Here and now - tonight's the night
We're waiting for the lights
Your fantasy will come alive

Breakout - let 'em shout
We are here tonight
And it's our fight
Breakout - let 'em shout
We own the night

We came to rock - we came to rule
On fuel injected speed for you
We're coming home with thunder roar
Let us hear you scream

Do you want it bad
And do you feel the magic
Wanna make it big at last

We came to rock
We came to rule
We're made of fire

This world will fade away
Don't tell me there's another way

Our hell is running cold
Here and now - tonight's the night
We're waiting for the lights
Your fantasy will come alive

Breakout - let 'em shout
We are here tonight
And it's our fight
Breakout - let 'em shout
We won the night
Breakout - let 'em shout
We are here tonight
And it's our fight
Breakout - let 'em shout
We own the night

09. Born With A Broken Heart

In the final hour - the guilty pays
The ghost is still inside me
I throw this bottle at the wall

When you fight fire with fire
End up with ashes
Alone - nobody aside you
Nothing but an empty glass

Walk with me - straight through the fire
I've been torn apart
Born with a broken heart
Walk with me - through the ashes of my life
I need a brand new start
I'm born with a broken heart

Fake friends - like shadows
Are always near you
At your brightest moments
But nowhere at your darkest hours

An outlaws heart, back from trouble
I'm chasing the demons in me
And my change is gonna come

Walk with me - straight through the fire
I've been torn apart
Born with a broken heart
Walk with me - through the ashes of my life
I need a brand new start
I'm born with a broken heart

I've been locked out of Heaven
For a long long time
Fear tried to control me
No more time to say goodbye

Walk with me - straight through the fire
I've been torn apart
Born with a broken heart
Walk with me - through the ashes of my life
I need a brand new start
I'm born with a broken heart

10. Innocent Man

It all happened last night
As the gang broke loose
"Jailbreak - Jailbreak!"
As I was left back on my own

I just put up a fight as a guard has caught me
Chasing me around
In self defense my bullet caught him

This time I will prove it's not my fault
it's not what it looks like - never!!

The innocent man
Clean handed
I'm burdened with guilt
The innocent man
In crazed action
Give me back my dignity

Intangible hard luck
In the wrong place
At the wrong time
The dude was firing
With all guns
"Jailbreak - Jailbreak!"

I tried to save my own life
In the twilight zone
State of exception
Everybody would
Have done the same thing

Take back your accuse
It's not my fault
It's not what it looks like
Never - no!!

The innocent man
Clean handed
I'm burdened with guilt
The innocent man
In crazed action
Give me back my dignity

The innocent man
Clean handed
I'm burdened with guilt
The innocent man
In crazed action
Give me back my dignity

11. Inseminoid

Through evolution all we seem to do is kill
We follow leaders blindly, bend to their will
The pages of history seem to teach us nothing
Are we just too afraid to think for ourselves

Live in fear
But we can't stop it
We all know
The killers are born that way

Save us and stop the insane
They're using deadly persuasion
Hunting and killing in vain
Death dependent

Save us and stop the insane
They hold the reigns of power
They love this dangerous game
Death dependent
Inseminoid

We search the boundaries of space
And dive the deepest seas
But when it comes to care, we're helpless

Some talk of noise pollution
When we play our heavy metal
Don't be judgemental it's our way of life

Live in fear
But we can't stop it
We all know
The killers are born that way

Save us and stop the insane
They're using deadly persuasion
Hunting and killing in vain
Death dependent

Save us and stop the insane
They hold the reins of power
They love this dangerous game
Death dependent
Inseminoid
