(Instrumental)


2. METAL RITES

[Chorus]
Killin' in the night for the Metal Rites !
Metal Rites ! Metal Rites !
Killin' in the night for the Metal Rites !
Metal Rites ! Metal Rites !

The victim is ready
The dagger it shines
The bleeding is steady
I'm outta my mind

Thf city's all right
For a stroll in the dark
Be careful you ladies
In the shade I lurk

[Chorus]

We lose all control
When the stage is alight
We know no remorse
As the metal bites

Beware of the nigh
If you care 'bout your soul
Stay out of my way
When the Marshalls roar

[Chorus]

Raging sounds and savage screams
Filling the air as we play
In the pays when all was dream
Metal was the leading the way

Sacrifice, the bloody cries
Breaking the threshold of pain
Sinful deeds, unholy deals
We are the rebels today

Your bodies are hot
The fever is high
We dont give a fuck
Cause we rock all night

The neighbors are crazy
They call the police
But before they get us
Their ass will bleed

[Chorus]

The town is on fire
There's death in the streets
The burning desire
The power you feel

You're smelling my leather
You're down on your knees
The blood doesnt matter
You're ready to please

[Chorus] (x2)

Killin' in the night for the Metal Rites! (x4)


3. GHOST RIDER

Out in the streets when sunlight retreats
The Rider from Hell, oh no !
He's coming for you ! Look out !
You're living in sin, your nightmare begins
Escape from his sight or you'll burn
If you're guilty !

Raging wheels
A stallion made of steel
A demon, a knight, rides alone. In the city

[Chorus #1]
Now it's too late for salvation
Run if you can, feel the chain. Of Ghostrider !
Ride the night ! Ghostrider ! Ride the night !

Caught in a spell, the toll of the bell
The master of hell, beware !
He's heading at you ! Yes, you !
The skull is alight, a fire so bright
He's roaming the night to kill
He is legion !

Raging wheels
A stallion made of steel
A demon, a knight, rides alone. In the city

[Chorus #1]

Running, riding
All across the West
Bounty Hunilr, son of Satan
Seizing, reaping
Torturing the damned
Heavy Metal motorized machine !

Open fire, Smith and Wesson kills
Firebreathing wicked shotgun
Steering, screaming
Engines overheat
Rock and rolling lawman
Without soul !

Ghostrider ! Ride the night !
Ghostrider ! Ride the night !

Out in the streets when sunlight retreats
The Rider from Heil, oh no !
He's coming for you ! Look out !
You're living in sin, your nighimare begins
Escape from his sight or you'll burn
If you're guilty !

Raging wheels
A stallion made of steel
A demon, a knight, rides alone. In the city

[Chorus #2]
Now it's too late for salvation
Run if you can, feel the chain. Of Ghostrider !
Ride the night ! Ghostrider ! Ride the night !
Ghostrider ! Ride the night !
Ghostrider ! Ride the night !
Ghostrider ! Ride the night !
Ride the night !


4. EVIL NIGHTMARES

Children of the wind
Rebels without a cause
Standing side by side
When all is said and done
It's a cross worth taking
Will it reawaken what is lost
But what is lost ?

Looking for the stars
Searching for a sign
Fighting for the truth
With weapons made of light
It's a world worth saving
Will it reawaken what is gone
But what is gone ?

[Chorus]
Tides arf rising for the One
Evil nightmares raging
On and on and on and on and on
Sands are running for the Son
Who will lead us shining
On and on and on and on and on

Look in His eyes
Witness the force
Follow the Lamb
The one and only

Here and again
United we pray
Holy the Lamb
Who holds the power
Holds the power

Warriors of the realm
Answering the call
Spreading out the news
That fly across the world
In a time that's bleeding
All that we are needing
Is your love
Is your love

[Chorus] (x2)


5. RETURN OF THE LONGSHIPS

Devils of the sea
Raiders of the coast
Vikings from the ice land
Mighty men of war

Searching for the gold
Rushing like a storm
Harbringers of vengeance
Taken by the sword

Thor, dealer of war
Lead us to plunder and glory
Unchain the wind
So the longships may sail
Stand by our side
And we never shall fail

Soar, gods of the north
Lead us to plunder and glory
Across the waves
Your eternal domain
Guide us tonight
To the hall of the slain

We are the lords of destruction, by sword and the flame
Leaving you dead on the shore and then sailing away
Soidiers of Odin, we fight
Back from the abyss of time

Sons of the north
Stronger than steel
Is the warrior
No pain and fear
Roaming the sea
We're invincible
Turn of the tide
Into the night
Will you follow us ?
The coast is in sight
Standing unite
There's no stopping us !

The city's taken, the gold is seized
The silent victims of war they sleep
Inside the tent the lamps that burn
There is a shadow upon the soul
It is not fear to die or fail
Because I know what awaits beyond
It's like a strange but recurring thought
Coming to me when I lie alone
What if by dawn there's no more to take ?
What if by sunset our legend fades
I sip my wine and I close my eyes
And then I dream in the starlit night
In the starlit night
In the starlit night

Light and thunder they won't take my soul
We are vikings, we behold the throne
Women sing of tales of war, up north
Deeds of glory live forevermore

Hunters of the sea
Dragons of the frost
Vikings from the ice land
Mighty men of war

Searching for the gold
Raging like a storm
Metal hammered vengeance
Rising high in blood

Thor, dealer of war
Lead us to plunder and glory
Unchain the wind
So the longships may sail
Stand by our side
And we never shall fail

Soar, gods of the north
Lead us to plunder and glory
Across the waves
Your eternal domain
Guide us tonight
To the hall of the slain

We are the lords of destruction, by sword and the flame
Leaving you dead on the shore and then sailing away
Soidiers of Odin, we fight
Back from the abyss of time

Sons of the north
Stronger than steel
Is the warrior
No pain and fear
Roaming the sea
We're invincible
Turn of the tide
Into the night
Will you follow us ?
The coast is in sight
Standing unite
There's no stopping us !

Hold your hearts out
Stand, fight and never give in
Just rock it, yeah !

7. BLACKOUT IN L.A.

Wlid eyes and flashing spikes
Steelheart rebels wander tonight
Screaming sirens in the streets of L.A.
Savage instinct rules the fights and riots
Trembling witnesses of murder and crimes
Your sight will soon be bunded
No chance to hide in dark alleys
The blade will leave it's mark tonight

Through the midnight mist you run away
Jackals' wailings burn inside your brain

[Chorus]
And when the night calls
On bleeding streets, a burning hell
A killing wish is taking over
Blackout in L.A.
Lost in the alleys
You gotta fight to stay alive
Another soldier of the darkness
Blackout in L.A.

White nights and neon lights
L.A. town is under the knife
Through the shadow you will run for your life
In the shadow is where you'll die
Law and order are no longer alive
The crimelords got the power
There's no way out of the city
The fire's burning bright tonight

Through the midnight mist you run away
Jackals' wailings burn inside your brain

[Chorus]

Steel bites and bullets fly
Combat rages on through the night
All the gangs are out and ready to strike
The cops outnumbered know they will die
If you think you're gonna stand up and fight
Forget about tomorrow
The flames devour the city
The hounds of vengeance howl tonight

Through the midnight mist you run away
Jackals' wailings burn inside your brain

[Chorus]


8. DOUBLE DRAGON

Warriors fight for justice in the streets
Young survivors of a new dark age
Called the Dragon Kings
Riots down the subway hear the screams
Flames of vengeance burning deep
When the town of New York sleeps

[Chorus]
Running wild and free
Dragon forces in their hands
Born to fight against the dark
Double Dragon !
As the nightwinds blow
Waiting for the break of dawn
Vigilantes standing strong
Double Dragon !

Cry out for the bloodshed has begun
Knives and rifles sing a deadly song
Striking down the law
Brothers when the battle rages on
Shadow Warriors rushing forth
Bells of judgement ring their toll

[Chorus]


9. BACK TO SAIGON

We were young, we were bold
So one day we were told
Hey kid, you gotta go,
Gotta nail them to your gun

Down the jungle seems to whisper
Legends of a lost empire

So many years have rolled on
How many soldiers are still there
So long they have been waiting
So many tears, but we are

[Chorus]
Back to Saigon
A-Teams out of the night
Steel angels, rolling high in the sky
Gunfire, screaming thunder and light
Lone rangers, heroes will never die

Out of the sky we came
To play a deadly game
We fought for USA
In the fields of Vietnam

Chinooks fly across the blue line
Purple Hearts
Are back to the fight

So many years have rolled on
How many soldiers are still there
So long they have been waiting
So many tears, but we are

[Chorus]

Back, I'm back, I'm back,
I'm back to Saigon
On the rising sun the eagles fly
Back, I'm back, I'm back,
I'm back to Saigon
One last time
Back, I'm back, I'm back,
I'm back to Saigon
Back for whom the war
Did never end
Back, I'm back, I'm back,
I'm back to Saigon
Once again
They have gone now
Not forgotten
