1. ELEMENTAL FORCES

Grope through the darkness in the mist
I shall never miss the sun
Drowning in deep blue
Life it gives and then it takes it away
Suffocation, I can’t inhale
The invisible is not here
Somehow, the earth is shaking
Suddenly the elements smashing
Everything in their way
Without regard for man or animal
Nothing we can do, we cannot control
When the Forces move out to destroy
(Solo: A. Curty)
Burned by the sun, frozen in the arctic ice
Blinding storms raging, tidal waves crashing
Quaking, erupting, nature will blow you away
No place for hiding
No one to negotiate
See how weak we are
What you took for granted turns against you
The elements smashing
Everything in their way
Without regard for man or animal
Nothing we can do, we cannot control
When the Forces move out to destroy
Out to destroy



2. THE NEW LORDSHIP

The wired war is upon the world
Start the fires, command the bomb squad
Destroy the shelters, everything’s disassembled
Make the children homeless
Hear the women cry
Face the terror speechless
See all brave men die
They fell
For hell
So we can be free
And obey the new lordship
(Solo: C. Schafer)
The towers fell and the bridges are burning
Streets are debris and the cultures are drowning
Another Phantom state is rising from the ashes
Rip them off of their pride
Steal ‘em all they’re worth
Keep ‘em beg for mercy
Leave ‘em lying there
So the Lot
Shall rot
So we can be free
And obey the new lordship
(Solo: A. Curty)


3. SINGLE WARNING

You are now afraid to walk the streets
Not supposed to feel safe and warm
No natural reaction you’re able to hold
Morph into a robot only here to serve
The only thing I need is global security
I am willing to free, to free my identity
You shall never question our authority
We define your laws, take the power for our profit and overrule you
I don’t believe in things that I can’t see
I have a right to know and they show it on a screen
Don’t you see how they’re playing with me?
Couldn’t believe they’re fooling with you too
Expect no storm warning
I give you a single
Single warning
A hint, this clue that let’s you open up and doubt
This unseen scene, this unheard noise, a fake that you exposed
Still you got nothing, but a single warning
Still you got nothing, but a single warning
(Solo: A. Curty)
We shall believe in only what they want us to think it’s real
You were born into a world, created by their will
We have to ignore what is going on behind us
But how can I forget, when I found proof
Don’t you see how they’re playing with me?
Couldn’t believe they’re fooling with you too
Expect no storm warning
I give you a single
Single warning


4. THE INTERROGATION

Blackness
Don’t know if it’s night or day
No one to help me
Locked in
Woken up every hour of today
To feed me poison
Interrogation
Threatens my soul – Questions
All they do is breaking my will
With vicious pain- Turmoil
My mind is being torn from inside
I start eating from his hand
Interrogation
Demolish my soul
(Solo: C. Schafer)
First he breaks your will
Then destroys your mind
I can’t seem to fight it
Lose my individual self
Make me slave
Make me a whore
Where is the truth and what is it for? – Interrogation
Crucify my soul
Burnt brain
I begin to be someone else than me
I’m changing inside
Shut down
Another zombie risen again
A model citizen – Interrogation
Is your black throne


5. THE POWERS THAT BE

Creative Control over the World
The path has been made for you to fail
Like Puppet masters guiding the Strings
Just make sure to follow their ways
Treated like slaves, numbered, not named
Abused like figures in a chess-game
Made impossible to kill the king
A conspiracy from the ministry
For the powers that be
Steal your face
Delete your life
In Days of Grace
For the powers that be
Blind your eyes
Break your will
Until it dies
(Solo: D. Luterbacher)
Living in a police state
You’re hunted down, driven into
A corner attack, if you can stand up against them
Enjoy your victory as long as it lasts
For the powers that be
Steal your face
Delete your life
In Days of Grace
For the powers that be
Blind your eyes
Break your will
Until it dies


6. DEMOLITION

(Solos: A.Curty)


7. TRIAL AND ERROR

One ship, one fool
Never reaching the shore
No way, no goal
Where’s an entrance, where’s a door?
One step, beyond
Hidden in plain sight
No return, no backspace
I follow the inner light
But I can’t control my intuition
I know if I search, I will find
The land, beneath our feet
The holy city of Shamballah
(Solo: C. Schafer)
How bad is my timing?
Have I tried and tried enough?
Has the test of time passed by yet?
A Legend never fails
In the dark of my memories
If the spirits still alive
In the age of Ignoramus
The King of Kings will rise
Trial and Error: A World underground
Trial and Error: Rulers from Terra
Trial and Error: No one returned
Trial and Error: You’ll never find
Shamballah
City of Forever, Temple of the Gods
Passage through the world, in Tunnels of Light
On wings of a bird, hovering crafts
Fountains of Creation, mighty Vril-Force
(Solo: A. Curty)



8. REFUSE TO BE DENIED

(Solo: D. Luterbacher)
Reject expression to a centre point in me
Drifting away in dreams of glory to feel
Cannot connect to the holy shapes inside
Crawling back to the womb with all the blind
When the time comes I’ll be glad to sacrifice
Keeping away the past, that left us all behind
Hope is blackened by the powers of the lie
But in the end, I refuse to be denied
My eyes are bleeding from the pressure that I give
Unified fields surround us where we live
Forces are hidden, to guide us all away
But absolute the fact: we never went astray
When the time comes I’ll be glad to sacrifice
Keeping away the past that left us all behind
Hope is blackened by the powers of the lie
But in the end, I refuse to be denied
Refuse to be denied
(Solo: D. Luterbacher)


9. SPARE MY LIFE

All the tears in my eyes
Anger and pain within me lies
Can’t tell the truth from a fake
Can’t I wake up for heaven sake
In my head, my mind knows
There are more highs than there are lows
Living daily just to survive
It ain’t no reason for suicide
Why, oh Why
Spare my life
Why, oh Why
The answer I’ll never know
Why, oh Why
Spare my life
Why, oh Why
The answer I’ll never know
The end is better that sacrifice
Now wait the time is here
The time for Sacrifice
There are stars in the sky
No more reasons for you to cry
Make a stand and make a wish
If you believe, the world can switch
And when it does, you all will feel
The signs are clear, the signs are real
And if we die, if that’s the key
It’s only here, to set us free
(Solo: C. Schafer)
Why, oh Why
Spare my life
Why, oh Why
The answer I’ll never know
Why, oh Why
Spare my life
Why, oh Why, the answer I’ll never know
The end is better that sacrifice
Now wait the time is here
The time for Sacrifice
Ain’t Suicide


10. LOST COLONIES

(instrumental)


11. THE SERPENT WITH THE DOUBLE-EDGED TONGUE

a): The Awakening
Where are you, my god, my power, my senses tell me
You are here, where I don’t see
You should have saved me, let me prosper, let me feel real life
Instead I sit and wait for a sign of life
Wake up, wake up
There’s no time to waste
Wake up, wake up
Watch the serpent fall from upon the sky
Wake up, wake up
There’s no time
Wake up, wake up
Watch the serpent fall from upon the sky
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
Come and show me your secret
I’ll keep it safe
Open your book and I’ll take it to my cave
Let me take note
Let me tell the future
Upcoming events
Breaking the barrier of time
Time is now mine
(Solo: A. Curty)
Get up, go away
There is more time than needed
Get up, go away
Watch the serpent rising up so high
Get up, go away
There’s more time
Get up, go away
Watch the serpent rising up so high
Now I know why, now I know why

b): The Voyage
(Solo: C. Schafer)
The World is a lonely place full of lost souls
Lost little minds whose lives are occupied
May I tell them now, so they will know?
A secret, a mystery, an unknowing puzzle to be
Shall I start to enlighten, tell me how
Or shall I save man
By deceiving
On and on I travel
To plant the seed in different cultures
Spread the good word
Spread the lies
Just to safe them from the Truth
Safe them for good
(Solo: M. Vaucher)

c): Chosen Few
We are the seers of the past
We bring you Jesus the real and only
Obey, believe, receive
Totally completely
Turn from Satan -Turn from grief
Nothing more shall I believe
Let us write it down
Just what we remember
Once and for all
Twelve chosen ones
Twelve chosen sons
Twelve holy unite
Twelve planets collide
(Solo: C. Schafer)

d): Final Descent
Here is my servant, whom I have chosen
The one I love and I delight
I will put my spirit on him
And he will proclaim justice to the nations
He will not quarrel or cry out
No one will hear his voice in the streets
A bruised reed he will not break
And a smouldering wick he will not snuff out
Until he leads justice to victory
In his name the nations will put their hope
(Matthew 12, 18-21)

Never return
Never new born
Never return
Never will turn
Never return
Never reborn
Never return
Never to learn
But the damage has been done
2000 years of innocent people
Dying for you
Love your next
To kill the other
Love yourself and kill your brother
Wake up, wake up
There’s more space than time
Wake up, wake up
I saw the serpent spreading out the lie
Get up, go away
Get under earth or
Stand up and shout
To the serpent king up in the sky
Now you know why, now you know why
(Solo: A. Curty)
