1. EVIL SPELL

The devil is dealing
With illusions and dreams
He takes no money that is sure

Gave in to temptation
The contract is done
Now I caught there's no cure

Haunted by demons from hell
A slave to the evil

I live under an evil spell
Condemned to hell
I live under an evil spell
A slave to the dark
I live under an evil spell

Once you've made the deal
You're a creature cold and blind
The room of damnation has no way out

A cold hearted beast
I'm not dead nor alive
My soul is rotten to the core

Haunted by demons from hell
A slave to the evil

I live under an evil spell
Condemned to hell
I live under an evil spell
A slave to the dark
I live under an evil spell


2. IRON FIST IN A VELVET GLOVE

I see their faces
They're hunting me
It's like a bullet
Flying over me

Despite the time they waste on me
There's no way out, no breaking free
I chase the shadow on the wall
I am a prisoner of myself
Just look at me

No doctor - no healing
There's only disbelieving
The naked truth - no fantasy
No doctor - no healing
The poison gas I'm breathing
No other choice - than suicide and mania

Too many changes
Have ripped out my heart
Edge of insanity
I am the evil part

This must be real no fantasy
They're watching and destroying me
I'll crash my car against a wall
A silent scream, a final call
A funeral march

No doctor - no healing
There's only disbelieving
The naked truth - no fantasy
No doctor - no healing
The poison gas I'm breathing
No other choice - than suicide and mania


3. TEARS OF RAGE

Out here alone, I will wear a thousand faces
I'm still waiting, the master of disguise
Can't you hear me calling in my deepest desperation

I talked to the angles, cause I'd broken every rule
And if you hurt me, there's a way back to you
I found a reason out in this mystery

[Bridge:]
A touch of heaven
I opened up my soul
Don't leave me waiting
Until my heart is gone

[Chorus:]
It takes two times
There's no holding back now
Until I found you again
Tears of rage

Into the real world we said our last goodbye
Betrayed ourselves only for our selfish pride
I'm disillusioned, threw my heart into the flame

[Bridge:]
A touch of heaven
I opened up my soul
Don't leave me waiting
Until my heart is gone

[Chorus:]
It takes two times
There's no holding back now
Until I found you again
Tears of rage

[Solo]

Five in the morning, I'd lied to myself
Time to surrender as I see your face
I just want to hold you
I could make you mine again

[Bridge:]
A touch of heaven
I opened up my soul
Don't leave me waiting
Until my heart is gone

[Chorus:]
It takes two times
There's no holding back now
Until I found you again

It takes two times
There's no holding back now
Until I found you again
Tears of rage
Tears of rage


4. RUNNING IN THE DUST

I'm on my way in a foreign land
The crime rate's up to 25 percent
Dessident people everywhere
And I can't find no comfort here

[Bridge:]
All alone - no one's there to help me
No control - there's no one I can trust

[Chorus:]
Cause they were running in the dust - running
Cause they were running in the dust - running

I'm walking through the streets with a stranger's look
Their eyes staring at me as the darkness cooks
They ask me for a dollar a gun behind their back
Their faces switch from friendly to attack

[Bridge:]
All alone - no one's there to help me
No control - there's no one I can trust

[Chorus:]
Ause they were running in the dust - running
Cause they were running in the dust - running

[Solo]

I miss my country, my friends, my family
I will struggle to go home
I'm settled for peace now step out of insanity
But my dream has ended in a blast

Standing here alone in this bloodstained land
As I realized danger's close at hand
A gunshot kills the sound of silence
An angel's life has ended up by violence

[horus:]
Cause they were running in the dust - running
Cause they were running in the dust - running
Cause they were running in the dust
Running in the dust

Dust


5. SEA OF FLAMES

Trapped in the heat of the sun
There's only pain and disorder
Now that my nightmare's begun
Time's standing still on the run

Crime pays it's too late

I'm burning in flames
I'm here to acclaim
Set my destiny
My wishing well
I'm burning in flames
I'm here to acclaim
Call me the game
The sea of flames

We try to escape from the warzone
On our way back to paradise
We've travelled the seven seas
Fighting the enemy's lines

Crime pays it's too late

I'm burning in flames
I'm here to acclaim
Set my destiny
My wishing well
I'm burning in flames
I'm here to acclaim
Call me the game
The sea of flames


6. METAL IS FOREVER

Free choices always had the chance
To play the music you like true and faithful
You support this sound and rhythm
You back up it's future from deep in your heart

Faster beats are pounding
While the fans are shouting

Metal is forever

Nations come together

Excited - when you go to see a show
Your feelings arise
Committed - You became a fan forever
Knowing the words you sing all the tunes

Faster beats are pounding
Glowing tubes - high sounding

Metal is forever
In every single matter
Metal is forever
Nations come together

Faster beats are pounding
Screaming voices - howling

Metal is forever
In every single matter
Metal is forever
Nations come together


7. Wings of Desire

I'm walking the thin line and I realize
There is only one way to go
A one way street back to hell

Well I can't go on
Cause the truth is mine
I could only wait
My heart beat's the rhythm of time
There's only one destiny

Watch me die again, I'm losing faith
There is nobody holding the flame

Feel the touch of the wing
Feel the eagleheart
Feel the look of his eyes
It takes me higher and higher
On the wings of desire

Who's behind my eyes - who follow me
I'm fighting the pain
Running on the edge of a dream
Can I save myself

At the end of the line, the end of the dream
My soul escapes
Come listen to my silent screams
In a dead end street

Watch me die again, take the demons from me
Will you visit my final hour

Feel the touch of the wing
Feel the eagleheart
Feel the look of his eyes
It takes me higher and higher
On the wings of desire

No sign no light is leading my way
Some minutes later
I'm back and awaiting the day
There's only a chance to turn
There's only a flame that burns on the wings of desire

Watch me die again, take the demons from me
Will you visit my final hour

Feel the touch of the wing
Feel the eagleheart
Feel the look of his eyes
It takes me higher and higher
On the wings of desire
