DISC 1

1. ROAD OF THE CROSS

No trace of the holy
No light on the new horizon
Dead rainbows of time
Forgotten warriors and stories
No sight for the blind
We have crucified religion
Seeking secrets and signs
My inner voices scream for vision... ooh

Burning road of the cross your eyes are blinding
Spirit black you attack and chain my soul
In the devil machine the world is grinding
Hear the tick of the clock turning the wheel

Inside your mind you are the only one
Chasing dreams beyond pain
Pale face of the lost and lonely
You blame the moon and the rain... ah yeah

It's the road of the cross and we are turning
Coming back from the black to praise the sun
Sending waves with my rock the music's burning
Let it kick like a shock to make you feel

The unborn days of the future
Winding land in the dark
Tearing pages from the book of evil
You must keep your sacred spark... in your heart

See the sign of the cross it took us under
Looking back spirit black burning the wheel
I'm a man of the rock I give you thunder
Like a shock to the heart I make you feel
On the road of the cross... I'm going under
Spirit black coming back... you're not the only one
It's a devil machine... it's gonna burn
Hear the tick of the clock turning the wheel


2. SHADOW PEOPLE

Day is dying night is moving
In the darkness evil looming
Crawling anger feeling hollow
Future city so cold with sorrow...yeah

Shameless leaders killing faster
Sending legions of disaster
No retreat no surrender
Thunderpain we will remember

And the diamond is you true blue
And the crystal is me
Lost in the dark

Shadow people shadow land
Desert danger there's blood on the sand
Blindfolded no time to see
Just another liar and the liar is me

Like a burning wind of fire
Push the demon in your desire
Cross religion you have the power
Rock the nations complete your tower

Cause the diamond is you true blue
And the crystal is me

Shadow people shadow land
Desert danger there's blood on the sand
Shadow people shadow land
Desert danger there's blood on the sand
Blindfolded no time to see... no
Just another liar and it's haunting me
Yeah it's haunting me


3. BELOW

We are sailing stormy water
Sinking souls in the blackest sea
Crawling hellhounds evil has been found
Feeding death to the war machine

Are you lonely you're not the only one
Feeling coldness in the burning rain
In your heart you're haunted by the life you wanted
You bleed your sorrow somewhere
Down tomorrow's road

Nobody knows what we are living for
Godless fire raging higher

There's something going on below
Under the surface so much deeper
Than this dark hole
We must find the secret eye
Break the chains and learn to fly

Fallen ages, kings and dreamers
Quest for power since the day the world was born
We keep on trying but we can't stop lying
Finding reason when the truth is hard to feel

You better watch out for the wicked man
He's gonna steal your crown before he takes you down

There's something going on below
Under the surface so much deeper than this dark hole
We must find the secret eye
Break the chains and learn to fly

Going under my ship of wonder
Drowning slowly as the pain is leaking in
From the sunlight to the frost night
Hope is fading on a silent wind

Something's going on below
Under the surface so much deeper
Than this dark hole
If we can find the secret eye
We lose our chains and learn to fly
And we must find the reason why


4. WE BROUGHT THE ANGELS DOWN

Maker of time where did you run to?
Inside the wheel I cry for you (you)
Soon from the sins that make me burn
Circle of fate will keep turning

Is it far?
I've got to know
Fading faster
Soon my journey will be over
There's a place beyond the sun
We must find the reason why we can't stop running

We brought the angels down
And made them evil
There's no religion without crime, no!
Are we the last in time?
The darkest flower
I spread my wings into the night sky

Warrior of death who do you turn to
Inside you feel it's (a) scream for you, they knew
Hunted by pain, it makes you burn
The cause(?) to your mind will return, oh

Is it far?
I've got to know
Fading faster
Soon my journey will be over
There's a place beyond the sun
We must find the reason why we can't stop running

We brought the angels down
And made them evil
There's no religion without crime
Are we the last in time?
The darkest flower
I've grown my leaves into the night sky

Take me far
I've got to go
Moving faster
As my heart is getting older
There's a place beyond the sun
We must find the reason why we can't stop running

We brought the angels down
We brought the angels down
And made them evil
There's no religion without crime Oohh !
Are we the last in time?
The darkest flower
I've grown my leaves into the sky


5. STORMCROW

I'm coming out at sundown
Casting shadows in this town...
Breathing the night
Holy times are over and I'm a pagan soldier
Looking for love

Stormcrow - I ride the wind
Stormcrow - Into the rain again
I'm a creature of the night you hear me call
Stormcrow

Just a 70's child
I like that rock'n roll style...so hungry for fame
I'm a beggar and a stealer
Always searching for a healer...ooh

Stormcrow - I glide the wind
Stormcrow - Feeling the pain again
Stormcrow - So black with sin
Like a phantom in the night
I am hiding from the light before I fall

I'll be waiting for the day
When my breath fades away...
It's the price to pay yeah
But I'll give all my power
Racing the hour and live life my way

Stormcrow - I ride the wind
Stormcrow - Into the rain again
Stormcrow - So dark within
Like a devil in the night
I am leaping from the light and I must fall
Stormcrow..Stormcrow
I glide the wind - I'm never giving in


6. SPIRIT BLACK

It's a rising wind and you heart is winter
Pounding in the cold
Going far away you're the deepest thinker
Walking all alone

Building your world of sin
Like a Judas you're a liar
Betraying all the ones you love
You burn your soul with evil fire
And when it all falls down
You wave no flag of weak surrender
Hiding deep in your coldest sorrow
You keep playing the pretender... yeah

When the past has turned
Into a roaring silence
You're lonely as the sun
You are dreaming far to a distant morning
No more on the run... no more

Sending deceiving winds
You're a killer for desire
A traitor to the things you love
Your victory won't take you higher... higher
Crushing diamonds to sand
Winding scars inside the warrior
Bleeding doorways of time
Healing wounds of killing war... yeah

Riding a demon wind
I am evil I am fire
Burning the turning wheel
I can tempt you with desire... desire
Yeah... ooh... ah... all right

You're a devil playing God
It's the nature of your heart
Oh..


7. THE INNER ROAD

Finding a reason
Killing the truth with lies
It cuts like a razor
When your dreams are broken
And there is no savior only rock and roll
Children of fire
Come and sell your soul

Life is all
Life is all there is to know before death
Black death
You gotta know your hell to find your heaven

Surrounded by treason
Losing our youth in cries
My over the horizon radar sweeps the land
Oh

Inspired by evil
It's a dark parade
And I am the spark to a flaming heart

Life is all
Life is all there is to know before death
Black death
Death
Black death
You gotta know your hell to find your heaven
Break the spell in this wishing well
Crack the code to your inner road and rise
Come on and rise... yeah

Death black death
Death black death
You gotta feel your hell to know
Death black death
You gotta know your hell to find your heaven
Break the spell in this wishing well
Crack the code to your inner road and rise... yeah


8. MAN OF THE DARK

As the night's casting shadows upon the city walls
He finds his way in the dark
Dressed in black to become unseen
He's moving with the secrets of his sacrifice
See the moon in his eyes and the lost paradise
It's weighing him down as he stumbles around... yeah

Lonely road
Leaving burn marks from the fire
Rusty soul
From the spikes that nailed him down

He's a man of the dark
Always hiding in his broken heart
Crying demon of the sun
Forever dying on the run
Till the fighting's done
A man of the dark

When there's love full of sadness
And the answers are unknown
He finds his way through it all

Rising slowly from madness
But the scars can't be undone
He was a dreamer

And the darkness is colder
As the winter gets older
Someone will find
A new dawning of time... oh

He's a man of the dark
Lost his mind and locked his open heart
Icon shadow of the sun
Forever hiding on the run
Till the fighting's done

Lonely road
Leaving burn marks from the fire
Rusty soul
From the spikes that nailed him down
Just a fool to believe in something better
The world is cruel
If you show them who you are

He's a man of the dark
And now he's hiding with his lonely heart
Icon shadow of the sun
Forever crying on the run

He's a man of the dark
Forever black inside his shattered heart
Crying like raindrops to the ground
A weeping willow that was never found
He lost his crown
Man of the dark... yeah
He's a man of the dark
Man of the dark
He's a man
Man of the dark


DISC 2

1. BLACK SONG

I'm gonna fight
Even though my life is burning
Everything's gonna be all right
Even if there's no returning

In silence I'm watching
I feel the world around
So restless staring deeper in the night

Like a far away sun when the fire is low
Like a fading star I'm burning out in the cold
Crying in my blacksong

I'm lonely - Aging fast down the road
Only in my dreams i'm hiding
Till I'm buried naked and old

I'm waiting... watching
I see the world around
Forever reaching deeper for the light

Like a faraway sun when the fire is low
I'm a fading star burning out in the cold
And I'm crying out my blacksong

Distant kingdoms like sparks on the sky
So many visions they come to you and I
The shine of the future gives no hint of peace
For this torn world there can be no release
Hold on...and all that is beautiful dies
Hold on...I'm stading here asking you why
Hold on...I must believe to rise in the blaze
But I'm tired in me running blind in the haze
Hold on...and everything powerful fades
Hold on...all that is young will age
Hold on...touched by evil darker than coil
No salvation for the warrior soul
But I'll keep on fighting...coming home...ooh yeah
Crying in my blacksong

In a faraway sun when the fire is low
Just a glowing star fading out in the cold
Dying with my blacksong

Black... black... turning black
Crying in my blacksong
Crying in my blacksong


2. GUITAR SOLO, TORE MOREN

(Instrumental)


3. TUNGUR KNIVUR

It was a long time ago
Where the snowy winds blow
In the land of midnight sun
In a storm sailed a viking ship
On a vast and long trip
The adventure has just begun
They were cold men of steel
With their swords and their shields

Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
There was thunder at the edge of the world
Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
Out to plunder with blades of steel

On the shore stood a warrior
His eyes blue and sore, yeah
The only one to make it home
His soul was black as the raven
Dark since the day when
His wounds had turned his heart to stone
He was strong without fear
Hear a sound so clear

Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
There was thunder at the edge of the world
Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
Out to plunder with blades of steel

Looking back at what was then
It was bravey of men
But time was bound to change everything
They would burn upon the cross
Branded by a sacred cause
Icon shadows turned to dust

Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
There was thunder at the edge of the world
Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
Out to plunder with blades of steel

Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
There's a fire at the edge of the world
Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
Out to plunder with their blades of steel

Tungur Knivur - Heavy Knife - Tung Kniv
There was thunder at the edge of the world


4. GUITAR SOLO, TOR ERIK MYHRE

(Instrumental)


5. ROCK AND ROLL ANGEL

Can you feel me
In the darkest hallways of your mind
Are you lost and lonely walking blind
Hear me calling are you falling from your dreaming sky
I see sorrow screaming in your eyes
So many lies... yeah

Cold in the darkness frozen within
Hiding your pain in the shadows
Blocking your vision caging your soul
Closing the door to what could have been

I know your secret window
Break the glass and let your strong winds blow

Yesterday's rain pouring again
Flooding the home of your memories
Closing the circle the ending is near
They have melted the sword of your victories

You're caught somewhere in between the sun and the shadow Night
Invisible rainbow hiding in black and white
There's a voice in the wind that blows from the other side
You can tear down the wall of darkness to shine your light
And be my rock and roll angel
My angel

Holes in your blindness light coming in
Piercing your heart like an arrow
Bleeding from war reality's sore
But you got to believe in something better

There's a voice in the wind that blows to the other side
You can burn down your wall of silence to shine your light
And be my rock and roll...

You're caught somewhere in between the sun and the shadow Night
Invisible rainbow hiding in black and white
Hear the voice in the wind that blows from the other side
And you can burn down your wall of darkness to shine your Light
And be a rock and roll angel


6. DRUM SOLO

(Instrumental)


7. SOUL OF THE WIND

Trust me I know what is real
Feel me I am your song
Darkness people fading time
Strangers blind in the light

I smell the earth after the fire
Burning the rain away from my inner pain
Swirling through the ashes of my broken dreams
Picking up the pieces of my lost memory

Never found what I was looking for in this world of fools
There are too many people
Making too many rules
Now the shade has fallen across the land
Hear madness whisper inside the lonely man

I sweep the forest like the silvery moon
And I'm a dancing fairy on glades of flowers in bloom
But I can be a hurricane to kill the flame
Sending waves without warning
Shameless I rule the game... yeah

Let it come let it come
I bring you storm and then I'm gone
It's the soul of the wind
Another time is blowing in
There's a new day dawning... oh
The soul of the wind

Roaming the city where angels die
See the blue light lady
Wandering the streets of crime
And the wolves are waiting to seal her fate
Just another night cry
Yeah and now it's too late

It's the soul of the wind
Another time is blowing in
For the soul of the wind


8. ARE YOU READY ? (THIN LIZZY COVER)

Are you ready to rock?
Are you ready to rip it up?
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Are you ready to get it up?

Are you ready to rock?
Are you ready to hit the floor?

Are you ready to rock?
Are you ready to hit the floor?

9. WAR OF THE WORLD

There's something in the air I feel the omen
My bones are aching I've got no more pain to bleed... no
Hear someone in despair is there no healer
To save the forgotten ones and burn away the stealer

Sign of the dark it's the war of the world
The dragon's bleeding my sword is piercing
Why save the world when you can rule it
Why touch the ground when you can fly away to dreams
Escape your silent screams

Whippped by the written law led by confusion
Bring out the warrior begin your revolution... yeah

Sign of the dark it's the war of the world
The dragon's bleeding
Why save the world when you can rule it... yeah
Why touch the ground when you can fly away to dreams
Come on and scream

There's something in the air I feel the omen
My bones are aching I've got no more pain to bleed... no
Hear someone in despair is there no healer
Save the forgotten ones and burn away...
... Burn away the stealer

Sign of the dark it's the war of the world
Why save the world when you can rule it
And why touch the ground when you can fly away to dreams
Escape your inner screams

From the ageless stones a forgotten song we must carry on
Look for the answer
Look look look... yeah
I can't find the answer
