1. LOCKED ON TO YOU

I'm going out my way to find her
Going out my mind to see her
Just give me a glimpse of heaven
I beg you to stay forever
Flashing lights in the heat of the night
Endless walks of neon light aside
Just lead me away from this place
I hope to end his chase

I'm not a guy who plays around
I'm here just to get to you

Locked on to you
In my dreams night after night
Locked on to you
In the night sky burning bright

The lust and pain that my body's feeling
You look at me and I feel like speeding
The world swirls around me
Everywhere just you I see
Smoke arises and the sun starts to set
Eyes burning I place my final bet
Just show me the lucky number
I go down like roaring thunder

I'm not a guy who plays around
I'm here just to get to you

Locked on to you
In my dreams night after night
Locked on to you
In the night sky burning bright

All that I did
Did just for you
All that you said
Is all what is left

I'm not a guy who plays around
I'm here just to get to you

Locked on to you
In my dreams night after night
Locked on to you
In the night sky burning bright


2. ONE CHANCE

She leads a life of agony
Every day and every way
Sells her body in the night
Just to keep herself alive
Why she chose the way she treads
Every night a different man
Sometimes she wishes she was dead
Then she crawls back into bed

On the way to self-destruction
Took the wrong path in frustration
She knows she can't get back no more...
Ever

One shot and one chance only
It's time to save yourself
One night in the life of the lonely
Can you leave it all behind?

When she grew up she got beat up bad
Every day by her drunken dad
Life was hell and no one helped
Soon she was dead from inside
Used and abused 'till twenty-one
A night went wrong, a bastard son
Who would help her and be a dad
For a whore "completely mad"

On the way to self-destruction
Took the wrong path in frustration
She knows she can't get back no more...
Ever

One shot and one chance only
It’s time to save yourself
One night in the life of the lonely
Can you leave it all behind?

One shot and one chance only
It’s time to save yourself
One night in the life of the lonely
Can you leave it all behind?


3. DEATH OR DOMINATION

The time has come to reach for the stars
No matter how, I don't mind about the scars
This is my fight to fill my own destiny
Once I was blinded by fear, now I can see

There was a time when I had to step down
I was forced to fall, they made me a clown
Too long I had to wear masks and disguises
Now look at me, the fallen arises...

I'm on my own, I am the god of creation
This is my way, this is determination
Don't try to stop me now, this is my salvation
My time has come, death or domination

How can you know when your time is right?
Standing back against the wall, don't give up the fight
I know future will bring only pain
Don't want to go down in vain...

Looking in to the mirror I finally see
A man with a destiny to be free
No more masks or lies
Hear me now, the fallen arises

I'm on my own. I am the god of creation
This is my way, this is determination
Don't try to stop me now, this is my salvation
My time has come, death or domination


4. MAN MK. II

We like to think we know it all
Solve the problems, make the laws
Wealth has helped us build a state
Made our lives much easier
But did we want this after all
Some say we were better before
Are our minds and souls well
Or are they too now up for sale

On this blinded quest for glory
We've lost touch with our inner needs
On this rigid race for fortune
We've trampled each other to death

I'm a modern man
With modern woes
Filled with fear
From head to toes
Too much things
And too little time
Lock me up
For my crimes

Are we happy, are we sad
Are we perfect, are we bad
Out of sight and out of mind
Are we deaf or are we blind
At what point did we forget
To cherish loved ones not neglect
We want it all we want it bad
So much that some of us become mad

On this blinded quest for glory
We've lost touch with our inner needs
On this rigid race for fortune
We've trampled each other to death

I'm a modern man
With modern woes
Filled with fear
From head to toes
Too much things
And too little time
Lock me up
For my crimes

Who will we listen and who will tell
Who still has a soul to sell
This is a race that no one wins
Still a race that everyone begins
The funny thing about it all
Is that we all know the score
Even though we want to turn
This thing will leave us burnt

On this blinded quest for glory
We've lost touch with our inner needs
On this rigid race for fortune
We've trampled each other to death

I'm a modern man
With modern woes
Filled with fear
From head to toes
Too much things
And too little time
Lock me up
For my crimes


5. HELSINKI 1939

The last day of november in 1939
The early winter has painted the city white
As day turns to night and
Skies clear above
People below will
Fight to stay alive
The sunlight vanishes and leaves the city bare
The lights are killed and the traffic is rare
As heavy silence
Fills the ground
From the east
The sky unleashes the beast

The monstrous roaring of the bombers
Fills the moonlit sky
The fear among the men grows bigger
Unsure if they’re gonna die
The overwhelming size of the soviet fleet
Prepares to drop its load
The pitch black city hidden down below
Prepares to take a blow

A Soviet pilot tries to see the target
In the pitch black night
The a-a fire lights the sky in flames
Right before the plane
In fear he drops the bombs and turns away
As flak tears the sides
As the first bombs hit the ground
The inferno is unleashed

The wail of death from above
They hear the screams everywhere
The dying cries of children
Somebody screams: incoming!

The air raid siren cries midst of mayhem
All around the chaos unfolds
Bloody remains of dead civilians
Grief of the people left alive
Smoke arises from burning rubble
Inside the trapped children cry
How could their father save them now
He's at frontline dying too

Save their souls
Mend our ways
May their souls
Rest in peace

When the sun begins to rise
The full destruction is seen
Death is present everywhere
But things could be worse
The government buildings still intact
Most of the bombs dropped to sea
Dread tonight's second attack
Blood on their hands they're coming back

Will we learn
From our past
May our scars
Heal in time

The first day of the bombings slowly came to end
A feeling of relief is felt throughout the town
Only to find out
That the coming night
Would make the capital
Face death again


6. WHO THREW THE FIRST STONE

Come hear, the old man tell a tale
Local old fool, target of laughter
Drunken reeking, face forever pale
Starts talking, story follows after

Hear me tell my tale
Pleased to know your name
You are too blame
Everyone’s the same

Who threw the first stone
Who lost his nerves
Why break the bone of
The beaten man

Now lies, in a pool of blood
Local old fool, target of attack
Guilty standing, leader of the pack
With henchmen, small minded souls

See them run away
Hyped about the crime

Who threw the first stone
Who lost his nerves
Why break the bone of
The beaten man

While only eighteen
All life ahead
Tried to show off
Killed a man

Bleeding in the alley
Again and again, every night

Who threw the first stone
Who lost his nerves
Why break the bone of
The beaten man

While only eighteen
All life ahead
Tried to show off
Killed a man


7. DEVIL KNOWS YOU'RE DEAD

What would you give for eternal life
Would you leave your old life behind
Darkminded you will stand alone
Standing strong, but don't know where to go

Someone told you how to use your life
You couldn't care less, now your life is a mess
When you’re trying to get back on your feet
You’re just falling again, death you’ll meet

Just walk away, don't try to hang on
What is left to live for, no one will know
Open your eyes, can't you see
Your life was worthless....
The devil knows you're dead

When you thought you got your very own will
Your head was humming, time stood still
You just tried too hard to rock out your heart
Too heavy for you, it was tearing you apart

All those things that once took place in your mind
Now just memories of those wicked stories
Some kind of peace of mind you've gotta find
Only thing you could do...

There's no reason to run away
You're just going to be led astray
In death's name you will pray
The devil takes care of his own

Just walk away, don't try to hang on
What is left to live for, no one will know
Open your eyes, can't you see
Your life was worthless....
The devil knows you're dead


8. LOST

Help me god, for what have I done?
Dead on the ground, the chosen one
Failed myself, fell into black
I’ve got to run, there's no turning back
In the limbo of spiralling fall
Rushing forward, just where we are
Hand of doom, coming my way
Moon bleeding, ending the day

Lonely man in a holy place
Begging forgiveness
Full of guilt is the lonely face
Praying for god

Save me from hell

The stain of guilt, the blood and the dirt
Cast out from home, drifting away
How can I ever
Pay back for my sins
Hated and loathed, where ever I roam
Carrying the weight, of innocent souls
End this gauntlet
Give me freedom

Alone the man with the weight of guilt
Begging forgiveness
Locked himself in a place he built
Deep inside his soul

Save me from hell

In these nightmares l am not alone
Demons tear my flesh away from bones
Again I walk the gauntlet, stabbing pain
Hear the laughter and feel the strain
I wish that someone could take me back
To pay for all the wrong I did back there
No one hears or cares when I scream out
Fire burns the skin I start to shout

Alone the man with the weight of guilt
Begging forgiveness
Locked himself in a place he built
Deep inside him

Save me from hell


9. WASTED LIFE

Something felt missing from his life
Something to fill that empty space
Faith was the one that felt so right
Met all the members and met the enlightened
Became a brother, among the order
There was no better place to be

Faces distorted, found in the darkness
Horrific expressions, left on their faces
Laughing and crying, living and dying
Evil eyes smiling, furniture flying

Throw your life away
In to the hands of the blind
Throw your life away
For the jaws of death to grind

Communion and passion all day long
Something to make a lone heart race
The cult was the one that made you feel
Day at a time they alienate
Let all the bridges burn behind
The cult became the only world

Faces distorted, found in the darkness
Horrific expressions, left on their faces
Laughing and crying, living and dying
Evil eyes smiling, furniture flying

Throw your life away
In to the hands of the blind
Throw your life away
For the jaws of death to grind

A wasted life
A wasted life
Another wasted life...

Throw your life away
In to the hands of the blind
Throw your life away
For the jaws of death to grind

A wasted life
A wasted life
Another wasted life...
These wasted lives
Those wasted times
Another wasted life…


10. THE LONGING

Like a newborn child
Staring at the stars
I look at you
And wonder how
Someone can look so divine

We lay aside tonight
Alone in the dark
I drown in your eyes
And wonder how
Someone can look so divine

In love we tread
Hand in hand
On this velvet bed
You rest your head
Slowly closing your eyes

All that time that I knew you well
In a different world of love I dwelled
I was a fortress that nothing could break
I was more than someone could take
Drunk out of love every night we were
Passed out waking with a feel so real
The scent you bore was too much to take
You were more than I could take

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die
Day after day, you keep on fading away
Lie after lie, where did emotions die
Night after night, thinking was I right?

Remember the things that I used to say
Remember the things that got in our way
No one could stop us when we were on our way
They could've tried but never win
Out of the blue like a lightning strike
Came a conclusion of parting ways
Once this wheel of fortune started to roll around
There was no one who would block its path

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die
Day after day, you keep on fading away
Lie after lie, where did emotions die
Night after night, thinking was I right?

Into the open arms of night I cast myself
A leap into the dark that swallows me

Where on the way
Did you forget me?
Where on the way
Did I forget you?
Where on the way
Took the strangest turn
Where on the way
Did the road start to fade

Where did you go?
Where is the love
I am the loneliest man
Alive
Where did you go?
Where is the love
I am the loneliest man
Alive

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die
Day after day, you keep on fading away
Lie after lie, where did emotions die
Night after night, thinking was I right?

Like a newborn child
Staring at the stars
I look at you
And wonder how
Someone can look so divine
