1. SEVENTH CRUSADE

Slaves under lock in the seventh crusade
This war won't stop, it's of heaven made
Soldiers of the seventh crusade

So many say it's the crusaders fault
The world is upside down
But as you know they only did what they'd been told
Couldn't realize it was forever, on and on

They were knights on the seventh crusade
Blood from a rock
Knights on the seventh crusade
Slaves under lock, this war won't stop

So what is Jesus for the common man?
Muhammad's dear old friend
I wonder what they think abouth these infernal fights
Are we all infected souls of evil?
Yes we are

There is a place on a higher ground
Where angel's play, heavenly sound
Get embraced by the great one's might
We're gonna shine like fire, fire light

This is a time of pure disharmony
And man is killing man
So for a thousand years time has been standing still
I guess this holy war will last forever, on and on

What is left to say?
Are you on your way to the seventh crusade?
Seventh crusade
To the seventh crusade

Seventh crusade
Knights on the seventh
Knights on the seventh crusade


2. WITH A STRANGER'S EYE

Come winter, come rain, come permanent pain
This time I'm in charge of this runaway train
A vision one night; so clear and so bright
Can you feel me? Please believe me

Let the astral projection begin
By the earth and the moon
Now I'm leaving this body of sin

I will see you

With a stranger's eye
On the other side
I'm watching the age of aquarius
With a stranger's eye
Transcendental ride
Look at yourself
With a stranger's eye

True wisdom you seek, well, that's how you speak
You're stuck to the master like a dog with a leash
With me you'll be safe, you don't have to be brave
We're all children of universe

Meditation brings peace to your mind
By the wind and the sun
The dark spirits are left far behind

I will heal you

What is the meaning of life if you fear?
What is the point keep on breathing when nobody cares?

Come winter, come rain, come permanent pain
This time I'm in charge of this runaway train
With me you'll be safe, you don't have to be brave
We're all children of universe

Let the astral projection begin
By the wind and the sun
The dark spirits are left far behind
I will heal you

With a strangers eye
With a strangers eye
With a strangers eye
On the other side I watch you


3. CHILD OF ROCK'N'ROLL

I'm a child of rock'n'roll

I've climbed up the sacred mountain
I've dived in the darkest of seas
I've read the Koran and the Bible
They didn't set me free
Searched for the power of karma
Travelled to the temple of dawn
Was told 'bout the great Mahayana
It didn't talk to me

I'm a child of rock'n'roll
I'm a child of rock'n'roll
I'm a child of rock'n'roll
Get out of my way, there's a fire in my soul

In school I was punished to silence
At work there was nothing to say
For ages my life was a prison
I had a broken heart
My best friend said, you are crazy
This boring road will lead you to hell
Break out, it's better to burn out than to fade away

Save me from the evil inside my soul
I am losing control 'cause I'm a child of rock'n'roll

Climbed on the sacred mountain
I've dived in the darkest of seas
I've read the Koran and the Bible
They didn't set me free


4. PEARL HARBOUR

Thousands were summoned, to protect their land
Flag of their fathers, dear old uncle sam

This is the day the training must pay
The enemy's here, we all know
The futures and pasts nothing will last
It's a nightmare but for real

Run away, madness arising
Run away, eastern eruption, out of the sky

Pearl Harbor
Attack of the island in the sun
Pearl Harbor
The battle was lost
But the war was won

Warhawks and zeroes, evil in the air
Death in the water, dead bodies everywhere

Dragged into war, that big ugly whore
So vicious so greedy and dark
It's just like today, the poor has to pay
For the stripes and shining stars

No more fear, surf on the fire
Raging flames burning inside this last samurai

Run away, madness arising
Run away, eastern eruption, out of the sky

Pearl Harbor
Set me free
Pearl Harbor
I'll set you free


5. LOST CRUCIFIX

Well I know it was a tale, but I also know that I will never learn
So the story of my life is a lie and my fortune will never turn

I know I'll burn

Since the dawn of the days
I have looked for the fire within
It's not a penny from the blood red sky

The talisman, my loving light
Heaven is calling
Candles burning in the night

Now and forever
Now you got to help me find

My lost crucifix
Help me find
My lost crucifix
My lost crucifix

On the road to the damned
I have walked on the path of my life
It wasn't easy but I'd go again

Nightmares of insanity
Satan is laughing
Show me just another sign

Now and forever
Now you got to help me find

So the coming of the light was a scene played in my deepest sleep
The secret of my life is a promise no one could ever keep

You know, the talisman, my loving light
Satan is laughing
Candles burning in the night

Now and forever
Now you got to help me find

My lost, my lost, lost crucifix
Help me find, I'm dying, I'm dying
So help me find my lost crucifix


6. BABYLON RISE

Rise
Babylon rise

I'm the whore of Babylon, come to me I'll sing my song
Prophets try to analyze, am I a tale or antichrist?

Unleash the great sin of Sodom and Gomorrah
Jackals and hounds out on the prowl
Protect yourself, need no one else

Children, unite, let me be your friend
The mother of harlots I am

Babylon rise
Evil is forever
Babylon rise
The resurrection is here

Feed yourself and no one else, the symptom of the world today
Hell is god and god is great, join me now in the fire lake

Democracy's a fake
Say welcome to destruction
A permanent chaos here to unfold
Intolerance and ignorance

Madness divide
Army's on the shore
The lonely invader for sure

Babylon rise
Evil is forever
Babylon rise
The new revelation is here

The mother of harlots I am
Unleash the great sin
The Babylon whore will be a friend of mine

Rise, rise, rise
Don't have to ask myself
Rise
Am I a god or antichrist?

Unleash the great sin of Sodom and Gomorrah
Jackals and hounds out on the prowl
Protect yourself, need no one else

Children, unite
Let me be your friend
The mother of harlots I am


7. SUICIDE RIME

Now I'm drinking the night away
Working on the suicide rime
There's no reason for one more season
Sharing what is mine

Here you are, my final spell

God is great but I guess I'll see you in hell
There we can ride the flames
The eternal wishing well
You are a lying thief
But I guess I'll see you in hell

My second name is a big mistake
Frantic like a merry go round
Mind intrusion, brain pollution
Suicidal rime

Life or death, it's all the same

Turn your back, but I guess I'll see you in hell
There we can ride the flames
The eternal wishing well
You are a lying thief
But I guess I'll see you in hell
But I guess I'll see you in hell

My suicide rime, my suicide rime

Here you are, my final spell

You've heard it
The story of my life
My suicide rime


8. THE BATTLE OF JACOB'S FORD

Well, is there someone who can tell?
And is there someone who can cast the spell away?

Say you can, I'll be damned, walk on the water
Saladin had to win
They were lambs on their way to slaughter

In the name of the Lord
They were fighting in rage
Not a glorious state
A bloody holy war

Why?
It's a struggle but no one is sorry
Why?
We are ready to do it again

March, we're going out to war
Like shelter from the storm
The battle of Jacob's Ford
March, their fundaments will break
The ground about to shake
In the battle of Jacob's Ford

Sacrifice under the sun
On the dunes of sand they did what had to be done
In the search of the grail
It's a task no one knows
By the honor of God
Another broken law

Why?
It's a minds game but no one is asking
Why?
And they do it again and again

Heaven is lost, a picture inside
Bury the bleeding, comfort the blind
Heaven is just a servant of hell, we're all fools
Heaven is lost, a picture inside
Bury the bleeding, comfort the blind
Heaven is just a servant of hell
We're all fools in life's wishing well

Well, is there someone who can tell?
And is there someone who can cast the spell away?

Say you can, I'll be damned, walk on the water
Saladin had to win
They were lambs on their way to

Is there someone who can tell?
Is there someone who can tell me
Is there someone?
Is there someone?
Is there someone who can tell me?


9. OPERATION FREEDOM

It's time to prepare for the attack
This land is forever the darkest of black
We will never, never, ever back down
Start the blitz, who is blix?

The head of the UN inspectors
They're liars and traitors
We speak for the free world
Not commiting a crime

Attack, and then we shall protect
Operation freedom is here
We're saving Iraq
Attack, let's wring that evil neck
Ready to fight in the name of freedom

This was right, I am stronger than steel
Though my friends say that I have deceived my belief
I'm not breaking, shaking, quaking
'cause I can justifiy all my lies

My conscience is clean ask the people
Unenlightened by purpose
The fraud of the century
Not commiting a crime

Attack, and then we shall protect
Operation freedom is here
We're saving Iraq
Attack, let's wring that evil neck
Live and let die in the name of freedom

Revenge of the failure
A gift to your father
Have I been a good boy?
Please say that you're proud


10. THE DAY AFTER YESTERDAY

The time is here to say goodbye
Welcome to heaven my friend
Damage done the war is won
This time I know it will end
Walk the walk, try to practice what you preach
Talk the talk, your rage must be unleashed
Crawl right back into your hole
If you can't look into my eyes

A ghost in the shadows
A symbol of what's sacred
Betrayed at last
Slaughtered by a sin for his sins

Cry out loud, it's the day after yesterday
Black storm cloud will rage in the day after yesterday
Yesterday

The night was young but we were old
See you at the gates of hell
What's the word out on the streets?
Do prophets have something to say?
Break out, get rid of your heavy chains
Think about all the lethal aliens
We're all puppets on a string
Doing what we have been told

The man in the mirror
A portrait of yourself
Congratulate
Our freedom is stronger than pain

Don't need much
Walk the walk
Try to practice what you preach
You are gone
Guess I'll see you at the gates of hell

Still a ghost in the shadows
A symbol of what's sacred
Betrayed at last
Slaughtered by a sin for his sin

By a sin for his sin
Betrayed at last
He was slaughtered


11. JERUSALEM

City of David, kingdom of Israel
King Solomon built the holy temple on mount Muriah
Alexander the Great of Macedonia
Then the emperor of Rome
Crusaders, Arabians

Broke down the people
Their will to survive
It's a part of the real world
What's here to live has to die

Jerusalem
Jerusalem
A holy city you are
Like a light in the far
Home of the holy men
Jerusalem
Jerusalem
You are the key of mankind
The rock must roll again

Nothing has changed, this war will go on and on
Victims of wrath in memory forevermore
There by the dome of the rock and the western wall
Father forgive what they've done
Foundations about to fall

What can be sacred?
Is there an end?
This is an ocean of stories
They're just a part of the plan

What is right, what is wrong?
I just don't know
We should learn how to play
'cause no one is here to stay

Light to the people
They will survive
It's a part of the real world
And the hatred must die
