1. IMMORTAL

We want it, we need it, we pray for eternal life
Forever and ever, no end, no stop in sight
The road to succeed is long and hard
There’s danger behind every corner
We’ll never give up, we’ll always be there in your minds

The road is long, it goes on and on
Like an always rolling wheel
We’ll head for the dream
To be immortal

You make us, you break us, but we, we don’t care at all
We’re stronger than ever, we, we’re not gonna fall
You can’t bring us down, we’ll fight till the end
We’re moving ahead to our glory
We’ll never give up and we’ll always be there in your memories

In the wake of armageddon, metal hearts will live forever
Even if you cut the power, we’ll survive the final hour
For empty headed, the story has no end at all
Do you think you know better, who do you think you are?
In good times and bad times, in rise and in fall
Be sure that we’ll never surrender
We’ll never give up, the spirit lives on in our songs


2. FROZEN FIRE - BURNING ICE

Black is blue and red is white
Night is day and day is night, it’s crazy
East is west and north is south
Up is down and in is out, it’s amazing

Confusion all around, don’t know which way to go
We all are waiting for the saviour

Frozen fire, burning ice
Our crazy world is upside down again
Lonely people, hungry children
Our crazy world is upside down again

Love is hate and hate is love
War is peace and peace is war
Guns are loaded
Evil is good and wrong is right
Light is dark and dark is light
Lowdown

Yes is no and stop means go, we mix up fast and slow
We all are waiting for an answer

Boys are girls and girls are boys
He’s a she and she’s a he
We’re changing
Pain is joy and joy is pain
Rest is stress, sunshine is rain
Dangerous changes

Hell is heaven and heaven is hell
Who will cast the spell
We all are waiting for the saviour


3. STONE COLD

Losing our direction
Loading all the guns
Bloodshed and violence
Killing just for fun
We can’t stand each other, soon we’ll turn to stone
All these lonely people, do they have a home

Stone cold is the world
Stone cold is our heart
Stone cold the heat is gone
Stone cold we’re cold as ice

Victim of evolution
Enslaved by our greed
Suppressing all our emotions
Hiding all our tears
Do we know our neighbours? Can we trust our friends?
We’ll never talk to strangers, we’re under computer command

Competition and power games
Dying in the streets
Just a number not a name
Hungry mouths to feed
We walk like robots, with mechanical souls
Indifferent and cynical, we’ll turn to stone


4. THE MIRROR

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?
A face of pride and honor, or a face of lies and greed
Betrayal and corruption, hatred and sin
A mind of lust and anger, a face of shame and guilt

Look at yourself in themirror
Reflecting the secrets of your face
Look at your face in the mirror
Can you be proud or ashamed?

How many people have been hurt by you
How many hearts are broken by you
All this hidden secrets, covered by your skin
Will the mirror ever reveal them
Or will it keep your image clean

Do you have a reason to be haughty and proud?
The demons awake inside you, you can’t let them out
How many times have you crossed the line?
Of decency and respect, you’ve been so unkind

Time to reconsider and draw up the balance sheet
Make an inventory of what you achieved
You are an insult to the human race
You think you are the strongest, but you are weak
You think you are a paragon, but you are only a freak
Someday you’ll pay for your sins


5. QUEEN OF THE FUTURE

You grew up too fast from a child to a girl
It’s hard to release you in this cruel world
I’ll teach you and guide you and show you the way
Take some advice from your old man
Queen of the future, queen of dreams you are
Queen of the future, queen of hope you are

You still believe in your dreams and believe in ideals
It’s all a proof of your innocence
The road is long and hard but the winds of time
Will fly you to your destiny

You got so much to take and so much to give
Got a whole life waiting ahead of you
Stay clean and refuse what’s wrong for you
You got so much to win, but much more to lose

Step by step, you’ll climb the ladder of life
Soon you’ll find out it’s not always a pleasure
Ambush and traps will be blocking your way
You’ll deal with sorrow and deception


6. HIGHLAND GLORY

In a land where water is still water
Where the air that I breathe is still pure
In a land where green is the colour
Where rest and peace are my cure

Highland glory
Honest and strong
Highland glory
Where I belong

Highland glory
Standing proud
Highland glory
On a sacred ground

In a land where dreams are reality
Where hope and future are one
In the land of myths and of legends
Of warriors and heroes long gone

In a land where winter is still winter
Where snow and ice are still cold
In a place where summer is still summer
Where sunshine is burning hot


7. TOUCH OF EVIL

A kiss of death and Midas touch
A brain possessor with eyes of lust and fear
Save my soul from your evil sin
No one hears the silent scream for help

[Chorus]
Should have known better all the time
But blinded by the shine
Can’t resist the fire deep inside
Touch of evil
Under your spell
Touch of evil
Under your spell

Ain’t no warning and no repent
Like an angel straigth from hell we’ll burn
It’s the magic it’s the spell
Mind controlled in a trance called dust

[Chorus]

Everything you touch, it’s all destroyed
Leave a trail of despair, dirty and void
On the edge of insanity
Victim of destiny and guilt

[Chorus]


8. DRIFTING AWAY

We’re drifting away from the essence of life
No one is hearing the warning, the cries
Too many people are living in sin
They can’t stand each other
They got the evil within

[Chorus]
Drifting away
From the essence of life
Drifting away
There’s no shore in sight

We can’t talk no more, communication has gone
We’re consumed by greed, our priorities are wrong
Like a ship without a sail, we’re lost at open sea
Tossed by the waves, drowned into eternity

[Chorus]

We don’t realise, what it’s all about
There’s no time for romance, we’re too selfish and proud
Too busy with our ego, our love is growing cold
We’re at the point of no return, we’re cyber controlled

[Chorus]


9. EASY RIDER

Wake up in the morning and run to my garage
Chrome and steel are shining in the dark
Cranking up the engine of my motorbike
With a sound of thunder, the pistons on fire

[Chorus]
It’s a perfect relation between man and machine
Nobody got a hold on me
They call me easy rider

Moving down the highway, riding from town to town
A vagabond for life, strong and proud
Looking for some action, travelling on
With a feeling of freedom, life can be fun

[Chorus]

Traveling through the country from north to south
From east to west and the other way around
Speeding down the highway, I am king of the road
Love the life I live, it’s wild and bold


10. ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Queen of night, primcess of day
I am your king and your slave
Forever
You stole my heart from the very first day
No one can take my dream away
Never

I’ve been waiting such a long, long time
Someone like you was hard to find
Suddenly, out of the blue, you appeared

[Chorus]
Always and forever
You will be my number one
Always and forever
You will be the one that I love

Do you know what it means to me
To be your man after all these years
I know
You are the beauty and I am the beast
What does it matter everyday is a feast
A fairy tale

The flame still burns after all these years
We’ve been through joy, pain and tears
Stronger now than before, we are bound for life

[Chorus]


11. LIQUID SHADOWS

I don’t know where I’m going, I don’t know where I’ve been
Liquid shadows surrounding me, my head is in a spin
I don’t know what I’m doing, I’m living in a haze
Weird voices commanding me, I am not myself

I tried to give up and I tried to resist
Can’t find a way out, the evil persists
Addiction destroys me, my screnery is black
I live in my own world, losing all tracks

Liquid shadows, close to delirium
Liquid shadows, no equilibrium

Help me and heal me, I can’t do it on my own
Booze and pills are ruling, common sense is long gone
There’s a fire in my stomach, smoke is in my brain
The words I speak are nonsense, I’m almost insane

Visions of madness, I live in exile
A cold existance, all the while
Sick and tired, in my fantasy world
A perpetual blackout, my memory is burned

Fear and frustration, lacking self confidence
Hollow walls build around me, there is no entrance
I had everything that I could ask for
But I always wanted more
I’m in a state of disconnection, fate knocks on my door

A labyrinth of thoughts, shredding my mind
A circle of confusion, absence of time
My friends turned me down, my woman is gone
Liquid shadows, collapsing alone


12. AD TEMPUS VITAE

(Instrumental)
