(Instrumental)


2. PARADOX

I'm a genie from the bottle a voice upon the raw north wind
I know you if you heart is good I'll also know if you have sinned
You can lead me to a warhorse see me riding on its back
I'll be with you as you retreat I will lead the main attack

Paradox - no just a lie
Paradox - I wonder why

You will feel no joy
You will feel no pain
You'll never see the sun
You'll only feel the rain

I run with the wolves at midnight I can stop the sun at dawn
I'm a king a queen a bishop you are just my lowly pawn
I sing with the elves of Mirkwood and I've watched the dragons die
I'm the king beneath the mountain I'm an eagle in the sky

Paradox - no just a lie
Paradox - I wonder why

You will never feel the power
You will only feel pain
You will never see the sun
Are you insane

Is it only common sense
Or is it the truth
Tell me is it all a lie
Do you need to have the proof

Tell

You will feel no joy
You will feel no pain
You'll never see the sun
You'll only feel the rain

Gandalf rides fair shadowfax Arathorn strides far and wide
Boromir stands by the mighty oak tree a hundred arrows pierce his side
I have formed the highest mountains I have hurled a storm of rock
The world equates as paradise to you it's just a paradox

Paradox - no just a lie
Paradox - I wonder why

You will never feel the power
You will only feel pain
You will never see the sun
Are you insane

Insane


3. DEATH, SCREAMING AND PAIN

A story

A cold night somewhere such a cold night
Hands held in fear but it's going to be alright
It was a seance but no one really knew
What they were doing or how they were to perform

No one knew why they were there
Tired played out and scared

Fear numbing the brain
Windows drumming with rain
Shapes forged out of flame
Death screaming and pain

Don't call on me I'm not yours to see
You'll feel my power and you won't be too pleased
I'm called by many names none of them portray
The hate that's burning in my mind the havoc I can play

I am the true Lord of Hell
Satan's my name I'm king

Fears stab into their brains
Windows drumming insane
A candle is guttering flame
Death screaming and pain

Hell
Death

Oh the candles go dim a great sound cracks the wall
A voice is heard saying I'm coming for you all
Come down with me now I'll give you your desire
But if you do not heed my words I'll smother you with fire

Nobody followed the sound
They just stayed there and burned

A house that's empty again
Windows still drumming with rain
There's no one to see any flame
There's only death screaming and pain


4. PRODUCT OF IMAGINATION

In concepts of space
We were an illusion
A second in the cosmos
A minute in real time

We spent our time in search of life
It was so hard

He started off too late
We were a dream
Product of imagination
By a god unseen

He knew that we would be destroyed
He felt so old yeah

He knew this was his final chance after years of trying to get it right
A dreaded foe would try to spoil Homo sapiens on sight
He guided our direction wisely helping only when it was needed
Laying traps for all our enemies no voice unheaded

Had to keep that satanistic man away

Everything he tried
Came to no avail
There was just destruction
At another's hand

He tried in vain
To stay the hand
Of his fallen brother
So he tried in vain

Had to keep the satanistic
Hand at bay yeah

Can't let them fall
Can this be all
Everything I've tried
Can't let it ride

They should have a place in time
They should not end

Tried to help us through our life helping when we fall
Say those words of satan's wrath try to keep us whole
Aid us in the flight against strife comfort when we call
Cast aside the sins we make revel in our joy

Have to win this battle satanists beware

Oh. we have the belief
Violence and power
Have a life to live
In an ivory tower

Had we had more time
We could have been more real
We didn't stand a chance
Because of powers unseen

Life was over before it had begun
God was wrong

They will fight through all of time cursing as they meet
Sending lightning across the sky a panoply of heat
A battlefield through time and space a fight of avid fury
Thunder heralds each new move only angels as their jury

The fight will last a millions years or more

We won't be here to tell
Or even keep the score
We can only hope
That we'll be here for more

That's life


5. CONTINUATION OF INVASION

(Instrumental)


6. MYSTERY

Trouble

I saw it hanging in the night air
Exactly as it shouldn't
I prayed for it to go its own way
Allthrough I knew it wouldn't

Who can I tell
Who would believe me
There's no one else around
Something's changing
It's moving off now
It's not making a sound

Someone tells me I didn't see it
It was only a dream
Oh God it's moving towards me
I think I shall scream

Where am I now
What am I doing here
What is this thing in the sky
Why does it want me
What have I done here
Why does it come for me now

Who could tell things would turn out this way tonite
I know why it's here it's coming to take me away tonite

But why

Mystery

Mystery
Mystery


7. KILL THAT BEAST

Massing on the borders all over this small world
The big red bear is coming the big red flag unfurls
Spreading mindless terror through puppets the world wide
No one really knows for sure who is on whose side

Kill that beast
Kill that beast

The bear is in San Salvador he's out in Cuba too
He's marching on North Africa is there nothing we can do
See the eagle in his nest not knowing who its master is
Is it all the man in power or is it a disaster

Kill that beast
Stop the spread

Kill that beast

Rushing through the danger zone
Why can't you see there's something going wrong
We have to move now we can't sit back
Just like we have been doing far too long

We have the power should we use it
No mistakes now don't abuse it

Kill that beast

We saw it in Afghanistan
We can't allow that to happen again
If it doesn't stop now it never will
We all just drown in the nuclear rain

Nuclear rain

We have the power should we use it
No mistakes now don't abuse it

Kill that beast
Kill that beast


8. PRAY TO THE GODZ OF WRATH

The warriors of Asgard fly
Their seeds across the sky
Lightning snaps from shield and sword
The gods that never die

Helmets shining
Spears aligning as they ride

Hallowed knights on golden chargers
Screaming as they say
Pray to the godz of wrath

Speeding in the silver morning
Sunshine lights their day
Eyes a sparkle spirits soaring
Nothing bars their way

Helmets shining
Spears aligning as they ride

Golden gods on golden chargers
Screaming as they say
Pray to the godz of wrath

Great swords swung against their foes
Cries of battle end the air
Thunder rolls across the sky
Of the gods of wrath beware

Helmets shining
Spears aligning as they ride

Savage lords on golden chargers
Screaming as they say
Pray to the godz of wrath


9. BEYOND SPACE

Out of time out of spacial space
Out of time we're a new race
We had to come across the nebula
We had to come through a black star we're right

We had to fall - through a time warp
We had to fall
We had to fly - through a star burst
We had to fly

We were in flight - we could not delay
We were in flight - each and every day

Not to worry there's a new world there
Time to hurry we may not have to care
If it isn't we will take it anyway

Beyond space fight

We haven't come this far to be scared
We haven't come this far not to be there

We had to fall - through a time warp
We had to fall
We had to fly - through a star burst
We had to fly

We were in flight - we could not delay
We were in flight - each and every day

We don't worry we don't even care
Don't have to hurry it will still be there
If it isn't we'll find it anywhere

Beyond space we will fight

We had to fly through smoke and clouds
We had to fly through a storm of dust

We felt that we'd come through hell
We didn't like it we didn't want to stay

This wasn't what we needed it wasn't good or right
It wasn't what we wanted it wasn't light or bright

No to worry we have time to spare
Not to hurry we don't have to care
If it's not good we'll go anywhere anywhere

Beyond space - fight
