1. HOLDING ON

Steel of our brave hearts trapped inside
In frozen illusion
High is the mountain we must climb
Reach out for rebellion

Rise up to the open sky
One chance at the price of glory
Fire in a thousand blazing skies
One lifetime ascending
Storm as an army side by side
Still brave and defending

March on through the tragic lands
Cold tears in the north wind falling
Raise your souls high
See the new dawn arise through the

Sands of all time, mystery of life
Everlasting sadness through light years gone by
Land lost in time, once more back where we belong
Promises of yesterday, we'll keep holding on

Silent and twisted lifeless mind
So blind in delusion
Cursed by the emptiness inside
Cast out in confusion

Strike back with the power in hand
Break free from a past life dying
Onwards we strikk till
The answer's we'll find in the

Sands of all time, mystery of life
Everlasting sadness through light years gone by
Land lost in time, once more back where we belong
Promises of yesterday, we'll keep holding on

Still lost and alone I'm dying
Daylight the world is still crying
Evermore we'll search throughout a lifetime

Stars are falling down tonight, light the path where Eagles fly
Find the strength inside us, a new world reborn
Silent tears of a pain we cried, rise our hands unto the Sky
Break the chains that bind us, one moment in time as we

Rise up to the open sky
One chance at the price of glory
Raise your souls high
See the new dawn arise through the

Sands of all time, mystery of life
Everlasting sadness through light years gone by
Land lost in time, once more back where we belong
Memories of a life to pray for
Everlasting price to pay for
Promises of yesterday, we'll keep holding on

Sands of all time, once more we'll rise up again
Stand alone and fight till the end


2. FALLEN WORLD

Soldiers of fire
Rage of the universe
Cold steel and bloodshed
In the lost barren wasteland

Fear rising higher
Rage of the winter war
Death calls and night fall
Our hatred still binds us

We march through endless skies
Mankind will fall, death will arise

For a lifetime we fight without reason
Still we wait for the warrior's return
Though we're cast out and broken, we still carry on
Alone in a lost Fallen World

Flames burning higher
Curse of the winterland
Black, torn and twisted
In the fast-fading twilight

Storm winds still blowing
Still chase our destiny
Death calls and night fall
Our curse will be lifted

Disguise, this endless cry
Brave men will fall, evil will rise!

For a lifetime we fight without reason
Still we wait for the warrior's return
For we're cast out and broken, we still carry on
Alone in a lost Fallen World

Still heroes were born
With promises so black
The light at the end of the road that we all must climb!

For a lifetime we fight without reason
Still we wait for the warrior's return
For we're cast out and broken, we still carry on
Alone in a lost Fallen World

Alone in a lost Fallen World...


3. CRY THUNDER

Through the valleys of evil and torturing souls,
Night after night, for the glory we fight,
In the kingdom of madness and the tales from the old

Dead by our hand, for the higher command,
As the darkness surrounds us and we fight as we fall,
Fly by with steel, as the tyrants will kneel,
Hearts growing stronger for the power of us all

Set sail for the glory,
And pray for the master of war
Tyrants will fall by the wastelands
And we'll rise like the heroes before

Cry Thunder!
Sword in his hand,
Titans of Justice, Fearless We Stand
Cry Thunder!
Strong in command
Blessed by the union for freedom of man

Reckoning Day, and the demons we slay,
With the force of the dragon we conquer them all!
Chaos still reigns, in the space and the plains,
The ultimate glory awaits as they fall

March on
Through the hellfire
Blazing to the darkness beyond
As we climb up the mountains
We will rise like the heroes before

Cry Thunder!
Sword in his hand,
Titans of Justice, Fearless We Stand
Cry Thunder!
Strong in command
Blessed by the union for freedom of man

Alone in darkness,
Through the eyes of broken dreams,
Outside of the wasted and torn,
Calamity still remains
Soldiers of destiny calling,
The fallen will rise once again,
All of our forces will live on and fight till the end

Cry Thunder!
Sword in his hand,
Titans of Justice, Fearless We Stand
Cry Thunder!
Strong in command,
Saviour of legions, freedom of man

Cry Thunder!
Sword in his hand,
Warriors defending,
One final stand
Cry Thunder!
Strong in command,
Blessed by the union, Freedom of man

Blessed by the union of man


4. GIVE ME THE NIGHT

Falling gradually, endlessly the perfect disease
Everyone's a winner but you're down on your knees
Sanity is passing one more shot if you please
For the one final game I won't be playing

Still the same tempting voice in my mind
Losing grip on it all
Carry on through the endless lies
'Cause I can't see a reason why

Give me the night
Let me be me for one last time
A prisoner of myself lost in disguise
Just give me the night
Still living in a twisted dream
There's no tomorrow for right now will be
The best time of my life

Hammering, sickening, torment and pain
Blind ambition to poison my brain
Cheating, lying, begging, stealing day after day
For the one final dose I won't be saving

Pure darkness, consuming my life
Don't wanna die here alone
Walk away from reality
Got a date with the enemy

Give me the night
Let me be me for one last time
A prisoner of myself lost in disguise
Just give me the night
Still living in a twisted dream
There's no tomorrow for right now will be
The best time of my life

Give me the night
Let me be me for one last time
A prisoner of myself lost in disguise
Just give me the night
Still living in a twisted dream
There's no tomorrow for right now will be
The best time of my life


5. WINGS OF LIBERTY

Outside of this world,
There's a life force still burning
Outisde of this land
There's a star shining free

In silence we stand,
On a golden horizon, calling
This time there's a light for us
Still shining so bright for us
Again

Trapped inside this paradise still bleeding
While there are so many faces in this mask of lies
Blinded by the promises and the life in pain
Now the time has come for all of us to rise

Through the fires of hell between us
Through a lifetime of our dreams
Endless tears still burn inside
Beneath the sadness of our screams

At the edge of our forsaken lands
Sign that we stand here alone
Nothing to say when the evil finally burns

We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone
One warrior standing, through a thousand years strong
Our past lives still shining, the starlight reveals
Our glory remembered, with the power of the steel

And the winter rain will fall, around the brave and fallen
Like the sands of endless time, they'll never be forgotten
We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone,
For the last time we cry now for freedom

Cast aside, this dying world forsakes us
Break the chains of our creation now to save our lives
Blight of all eternity and the curse of steel
Like the winter rain will tear the blazing skies

From the wastelands of destruction
With the fire we hold inside
Rise again, still glorious
For the power of all man kind

From the years of our forsaken lands
Sign that we stand here alone
Nothing to say when the evil finally burns

We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone
One warrior standing, through a thousand years strong
Our past lives still shining, the starlight reveals
Our glory remembered, with the power of the steel

And the winter rain will fall, around the brave and fallen
Like the sands of endless time, they'll never be forgotten
We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone,
For the last time we cry now for freedom

For the trials of far behind us
In the dark and burning skies
Fallen tears still lost inside
Within the memories of our lives

From the years of our forsaken lands
Sign that we stand here alone
Nothing to say when the evil finally burns

We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone
One warrior standing, through a thousand years strong
Our past lives still shining, the starlight reveals
Our glory remembered, with the power of the steel

And the winter rain will fall, around the brave and fallen
Like the sands of endless time, they'll never be forgotten
We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone,
For the last time we cry now for freedom

For the last tiem we cry now for freedom again!


6. SEASONS

I'm searching through emptiness
And try to forget us in pain
The light of the dark setting sun
Will bring my sadness to an end

Voices cry out through the fear and the dark
As we wait for our lives to be better

The words are dying in the night
No winter lasts forever
The seasons pass and the sunlight will shine
On my life again

So let the past now burn down in flames Ooohh

Locked in prison, in a world of living fear
On the edge of my destruction, marching on
Still suffering darkness with the dreams of life not
Meant to be
As I lie awake and curse the rising sun

Sadness in time for the truth that she hides
And this pain in my heart for no reason

The words are dying in the night
No winter lasts forever
The seasons pass and the sunlight will shine
On my life again

So let the past now burn down in flames

Voices cry out through the fear and the dark
As we wait for our lives to be better

The words are dying in the night
No winter lasts forever
The seasons pass and the sunlight will shine
On my life again

So leave the past behind

The dark clouds stating for my mind
No pain will last forever
The seasons pass and the sunlight will shine
On my life again

So let the past now burn down in flames,
Burn down in... Flames
Ooooh Oh ohohwhoa


7. HEART OF THE STORM

Silently marching our quest for revenge
Lost in the forgotten tragedy
Scars of the past still alive in our veins
Onwards we fight to our destiny

Trample their forces we now overrun
Sign of the power inside of us
Cities in ruins and lives are destroyed
Stand at the edge of the universe

Suffering fills the open sky
Battering down the pain inside
Memories hide the moonlight sky
Till the end of our days

Conquering lands and fallen heroes
Sanity torn we ride on fearless
Victory sounds a thousand miles away

Into this world in wonder from a starlight sky
For a lifetime of freedom and the legend is born
Once more unbroken, the price we will pay
On this march into fire, the heart of the storm

Endless destruction consuming our land
Legions of darkness destroy mankind
Storming the wasteland we now overcome
Vanquising evil insane we find

Rise of the slain, breaking the chains
Fight through the whirlwind of doom
Live for the day, conquer the pain
Under the light of the moon

Into this world in wonder from a starlight sky
For a lifetime of freedom and the legend is born
Once more unbroken, the price we will pay
On this march into fire, the heart of the storm

Outside the endless rain
Crushed by the burning pain
This life goes on forever after
Across the universe, on through the twilight sky
And still we feel the fire go on and on


8. DIE BY THE SWORD

Outside the battle ragin death upon us
No surrender unchained and free
Insanity will lead to blind destruction
Crush the evil, the foul disease

Our final destination reborn in darkness
Watching and waiting destroying with ease
The judgement day upon us as dawn is breaking
Mankind will fall to the spineless decieved

Fly through the storm, power of the steel
Striking with vegence, force them to kneel
Soldiers unite, force of the world
Fight till the end we will die by the sword

Fight on in foreign fields of mass destruction
Stand as one, no man left behind
Our final victory, tonight awaits us
Slain in darkness behind the lines

Raise the dead, ride beside of me
Fallen heroes, of a thousand moons
Blaze ahead the price that they now pay
On the march to their doom

Fly through the storm, power of the steel
Striking with vegence, force them to kneel
Soldiers unite, force of the world
Fight till the end we will die by the sword

Fight till the end we will die by the sword

Light the fires of freedom, on the shores of endless seas
Wings of glory guide us, on the path to victory
Light the fires of freedom, on the shores of endless seas
Wings of glory guide us, on the path to victory

Outside the battle raging death upon us
No surrender unchained and free
Insanity will lead to blind destruction
Crush the evil, the foul disease

Fly through the storm, power of the steel
Striking with vegence, force them to kneel
Soldiers unite, force of the world
Fight till the end we will die by the sword


9. LAST MAN STANDS

One man remains
And the stars seem to change
Far beyond our universe tonight

And the cries of the brave
And the skies filled with pain
For the silent ones we pray for all tonight

New dawn rising
Destruction and pain
Long days passing
The fear of the rain

Soliders fighting on
The price they will pay
Nuclear meltdown
The world uncertain

For the power of the tragedy of man’s creation
Rise from the suffering for our salvation
Fearless we stand
Strong ’til the end
At the trial of all our lives
Now say your final goodbyes

Light the path for the journey home
Save a prayer for the lost alone
Find a way from the other side
Before the hero stands, still blinding

Through the long nights across the seas
Shine a light for eternity
Find a way beyond the other side
Until the last man stands for all mankind

Skies now blackened
The night turns to day
Nations fearful of global decay
Fires still raging on
In vain now we pray
Nuclear fire
The fortunes fading

As we stand at the edge of barren desolation
Fight for the future of our generation
Fearless we stand
Brave we defend
For a thousand lives gone by
Now say our final goodbyes

Light the path for the journey home
Save a prayer for the lost alone
Find a way from the other side
Before the hero stands, still blinding

Light the path for the journey home
Save a prayer for the lost alone
Find a way from the other side
Before the hero stands, still blinding

And the fate of the world in our hands
Rise again until the end of time
Until the last man stands for all mankind


10. SEASONS (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

I'm searching through emptiness
And try to forget as in vain
The light of the dark setting sun
Will bring my sadness to an end

Voices cry out through the fear and the dark
As we wait for our lives to be better
The worlds are dying in the night
The winter lasts for ever
The seasons pass and sunlight will shine on my life again
So let the past... now burnt out in flames

Locked in a prison
In a world of living fear
On the edge of my destruction marching on
Still suffer in darkness
With the dreams of life, my meant to be
As the lie awaken curse the rising sun

Sadness inside from the truth that she hides
And is pain in my heart for no reason
The worlds are dying in the night
The winter lasts for ever
The seasons pass and sunlight will shine on my life again
So let the past, now burnt out in flames

Voices cry out through the fear and the dark
As we wait for our lives to be better
The worlds are dying in the night
The winter lasts for ever
The seasons pass and sunlight will shine on my life again
So leave the past behind

The dark clouds are fading from my mind
No pain will last forever
The seasons pass and sunlight will shine on my life again
So let the past now burnt out in flames
Burnt out in flames

the honor is stay by your side
In the shadow of the night we

12. HEART OF THE STORM (ALTERNATIVE CHORUS VERSION)

Silently marching, our quest for revenge
Lost in the forgotten tragedy
Scars of the past still alive in our veins
Onwards we fight to our destiny

Trample their forces we now overrun
Sign of the power inside of us
Cities in ruins and lives are destroyed
Stand at the edge of the universe

Suffering fills the open sky
Battering down the pain inside
Memories hide the moonlight sky
Till the end of our days

Conquering lands and fallen heroes
Sanity torn we ride on fearless
Victory sounds a thousand miles away

And still we stand alone before the moonlight rider
Rise again to light the power inside us
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
Ride again before the light, still shining
Fly towards, before the last horizon
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
In the dead of night

Endless destruction consuming our land
Legions of darkness destroy mankind
Storming the wasteland we now overcome
Vanquishing evil, insane we find

Rise of the slain, breaking the chains
Fight through the whirlwind of doom
Live for the day, conquer the pain
Under the light of the moon

And still we stand alone before the moonlight rider
Rise again to light the power inside us
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
Ride again before the light, still shining
Fly towards, before the last horizon
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
In the dead of night

Outside the endless rain
Crushed by the burning pain
This life goes on forever after
Across the universe, on through the twilight sky
And still we feel the fire go on and on.

And still we stand alone before the moonlight rider
Rise again to light the power inside us
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
Ride again before the light, still shining
Fly towards, before the last horizon
Fires of hell inside the darkness burning
Far away from me
In the dead of night

(Instrumental)
