Lyrics

1. LION'S ROAR/BOUND TO BE FREE (SAVAGE GRACE COVER)

Fists full of anger, rise into the night
The crack of the whip fills the day
Under the heel of oppressive boots of steel
The pain and the sweat turn to hate
Poised for the start of retribution’s kiss,
The links of their chains snap and fall
Armed with weapons from the arsenal of right,
They’ll bow no more

For deeds of the masters,
The heat of the slave anger explodes
Wielding the might of the vengeful they strike,
They’ll take the world
Bound to be free, the shackles of fear can’t
Deny me, bound to be free

The cost of freedom, high in blood and tears,
A price paid again and again
Onward to victory, they cry from within
No quarter given
They battle long and hard into the night,
Stealing the life from their prey
The light of destiny shines to guide the way,
They must take

Shackled and bound by deception to serve and obey
Struck down to their knees
By the men of the merciless faith
Burned by the hot irons touch so deep in their soul
Cursed to a life and decay without hope

Screams escape from the mouths of battered heads,
The dept leave their keepers for dead
Running rampant, setting all ablaze, no defence
Praise to the risen, new masters of their fate,
Fight on with malicious intent
And as the victors claim their liberty,
Rebellion spreads


2. BLEED FOR THE GODS (AGENT STEEL COVER)

Mid-day heat is low
Sun torches victims skin
Priests rise to command
Blood spills the altar stairs

Sacrifice to their gods
Sun sets the slaves all die
The hearts of humans left to dry
Burnt offerings to the sky

Temples built for priests with high
Messages and desperate dries
A message from a higher place
Condemning all your human race

Cowards run the rest await
Pious-virgin congragate
Offered to their godz from space
Watching on their human race

Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz

Suddenly lightning about us
Outside a vanishing light
Looking around for the traitors
The seeds that will be left behind

Sacrifice to their godz
Sun sets the slaves all die
The hearts of humans left to dry
Burnt offerings to the sky

Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz

Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz

Bleed for the godz


3. METAL CHURCH(METAL CHURCH COVER)

Many, many years ago on a distant shore
Men did gather secretly beyond a hidden door
They travelled long and travelled far
Dark into the night
Yes, this is the place they've chosen
To build the Metal site.

Congregation rises, starts to chant a hymn
Of evil, lust and hatred, the roots of every sin
The priest he stands before them, tells them why they are this way
Why they worship metal gods each and every day
By the hand of Oberon, dark into the deep
Love the evil things we do, the secrets that we keep

Metal church, unholy, who'll be the sacrifice
Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right
Metal church will find you, can't run very far
Metal church inside you, knows just who you are

No use in speaking out against anything we do
While the men of earth they sleep, haven't any clue
Now the story starts again, all the time is lost
Metal Church begins anew....
Saving souls that are lost.

Metal church, unholy, who'll be the sacrifice
Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right
Metal church will find you, can't run very far
Metal church inside you, knows just who you are

The metal church


5. KILL WITH POWER (MANOWAR COVER)

Hear what's written on the wind
We come to kill and kill again!
Our arrows fall like hail
Trample on the dead
Ride through the gate of clouds
Stand on the open step, ah!

Run berserk spreading fear and pain
Black shield and weapons, black our chain
None can harm us not their fire, iron or steel
For we have the will to power
With power we will kill

Kill with power
Die, die!
Kill with power
Die, die!!!

Kill with power
Die, die!
Kill with power
Die, die!!!

To the war-god Odin you will pray
And the curse of weapons shall remain
On the blood of all our fathers
On their weapons we now swear
To avenge, not lament
Give the false ones death!

Kill with power
Die, die!
Kill with power
Die, die!!!

Die!


6. STARS (HEAR' N AID COVER)

Who cries for the children?
I do

Some time in the night
When you're feeling the cold
Take a look at the sky above you
Those are faces in the light
If the story were told
They are calling you, calling you
Yeah

We are magic in the night
We are shadow, we are light
We are forever you and I
We're stars
We're stars

We can be strong
We are fire and stone
And we all want to touch a rainbow
But singers and songs
Will never change it alone
We are calling you, calling you

We're the beating of a heart
The beginning we're the start
Forever we will shine
Yeah

We're stars
We're stars

We are forever you and I

We are magic in the night
We're stars
We are shadow, we are light

We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're the magic
We're stars
We're stars
We're the beating of a heart

We're stars
Forever we will shine
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars


7. BURNING THE WITCHES (WARLOCK COVER)

When the day is over
The devil is near
The people who know it
Are full of fear.

When the devil is coming
A virgin will die
A soldier of the darkness
Will take her life.

The demon takes the body
Of the bloodless gal
Outside she’s looking pretty
Inside a beast of hell.

That’s what you are callin
A hellcat or a witch
And only if she’s burning
The demon will die.

Burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The demon dies by fire.

The witches are hunting
Your soul and your blood
And if you ain’t escape
They take all that you’ve got.

A soul of the virgin
Can find no peace
Till the fire is killing
The witch they can be free.

Burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries by fire.

By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries.

I am a Viking in going out to war
And I've got death upon my mind
As I was leavin' oh yesterday

[Chorus:]
As the shores of my home disappear
I sail over the sea without fear
Dragon ships are charging through the waves

9. XXX (NASTY SAVAGE COVER)

Take a trip, down lover's lane
Take that trip, it's time to play
Adult entertainment, you must be of age
Come and get wild, climb out of your cage

XXX
Triple X

You feel like your under the spiked heel
The crack of the whip brings great thrills
She soars to heights loves her delights
The foreplay is gone, the seduction is on

She's the ultimate pro who puts on a show
As she had me tied she moleste my mind
Exciting herself, I could have cried
Now I know, she loves to be wild

XXX
In her pants

You took a trip down lover's lane
Now you're gone, you wont be the same
Cinema fantasies, night clubs and shows
All the women, you never can know

XXX
Triple X

XXX
XXX


10. STEEL THE LIGHT (Q5 COVER)

Fallen angels and fallen dreams
Pay the price of mystery
The gods declared that man lived by night
And never shall they see the light

But in the heart of one deemed pure
Came the challenge of the fight
To return the days of gold
He must try to steal the light

Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Turning darkness into light

The gods have hidden well the golden sun
Inside the lands of the evil one
He walked the maze of the endless blight
Passed empty rooms where sirens cried

Close at hand his destiny
He feels the power of the light
And as the shadow falls on him
Draws his blade to face the night

Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Turning darkness into light

Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Turning darkness into light

The clash of steel was heard across the seas
Like no time in history
The dark one blinded by the sword of light
The final blow did take his life

Walked in silence to the golden door
Threw it open to the night
There in his hands our hopes and dreams
That this day would steel the light

Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Steel the light!
Turning darkness into light

Turning darkness into light
Take the darkness from our lives
Turn the darkness into light


11. TOR WITH THE HAMMER (TNT COVER)

Look in to the sky he's riding
High above the clouds he flies
King of gods, the world is shaking
Look for the blinding light

[Chorus:]
Oh tor with the hammer
Oh tor with the hammer

When his hammer hits the air
Watch the lightning strike the earth
From the halls of the mountain king
You can hear the vikings scream

[Chorus:]
Oh tor with the hammer
Oh tor with the hammer


12. MADHOUSE (ANTHRAX COVER)

White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my life's such a crime?

Trapped, in this nightmare
I wish I'd wake
As my whole life begins to shake
Four walls, surround me
An empty gaze
I can't find my way out of this maze

'Cause I don't care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I can't take the blame
They don't feel the shame

It's a Madhouse
Or so they claim
It's a Madhouse
Oh, am I insane?

My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light


13. METAL MERCHANTS (HALLOWS EVE COVER)

Conquering and pillaging our metal it will stand
The mighty metallion will be heard across the land
In the end aren't we all animals and leather is the word
So welcome to the human zoo where metal can be heard

[Chorus]
Metal Merchants
Metal Merchants

Conquering and pillaging unleashed and let go
Death to modern music and to all who oppose
We'll blacken eyes of their severed heads dismember them at night
We'll shove our metal down their throats and show them who is right

[Chorus]

Bang your head against the stage
Throw, throw your fist up in the air
Don't worry their downgrading of our leather and long hair
Thrusting with a vengeance now we know just what they are
We're all Metal merchants and there ain't no fucking stars.

[Chorus]


14. RED RUM (LIZZY BORDEN COVER)

All work and no pay
Makes Jack a dull boy
I’m driving insane
Cause I need a brand new toy

Killer stalks in search of prey
Sometimes my mind goes astray
The blood flows as my curtain calls
I’m bustin’ through your walls

All’s fair in love and war
Repeated nightmares have begun
Old wounds that never heal
I’ll cut them down one by one

Lusting them imaginary
Horrifying coronary
Tormented fools are on the run
Echo these screams red rum

Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul

When all the lights go down
And all the lost have been found
Round your neck your turn’s bound

Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul

Spirits ripping out my mind
Invade my brain with lies they shine
Deja - vu invites intrusion
Murder is the dead conclusion

Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul
Red rum - come out, come out wherever
Red rum - hello daddy’s home


15. SOLDIERS UNDER COMMAND (STRYPER COVER)

We are the soldiers under God's command
We hold His two-edged sword within our hands
We're not ashamed to stand up for what's right
We win without sin, it's not by our might
And we're fighting all the sin
And the good book -- it says we'll win!

[Chorus:]
Soldiers, Soldiers, under command
Soldiers, Soldiers, fighting the Lords battle plan

Are you a soldier under God's command
Help fight the good fight, join us while you can
The battle that's waiting is fought so easily
Through Him, without sin there is victory
And were fighting all the sin
And the good book -- it says we'll win!

[Repeat Chorus]


16. YOU AND I (M.A.R.S/DRIVER COVER)

Stranded, left high and dry
Lost and lonely
And then suddenly
You walked in my life

You and I
This burning love will never die
You and I
This burning love's alive

Passion, the passion is flowing
My heart's on fire
A rising fever
Sparks like a dawn

You and I
This burning love will never die
You and I
This burning love's alive

In the night
It's taking me over
This love can go on

Stranded, left high and dry
Lost and lonely
And then suddenly
You walked in my life

You and I
This burning love will never die
You and I
This burning love's alive
