The Book of Life
Here, in this world, below
Where the dark prevails and the madness grows
In this world, below
You can feel the fear deep inside your soul
Sinner awake - the hours is late
Your trial has begun
The court is in session, time to decide - Nothing is left behind
A deal with the devil you can´t deny - all is revealed
The legions of demons, inside your head
whisper the songs of the dead
Away from the light and into the night
Your name won’t be found in the black book of life
Down here, in this world beyond
In the black domains where the madness grows
In your final hour
You will find your soul in the lake of fire
The judgement goes on, in darkness you wait - Trapped for a thousand years
All that you sowed, now you will reap - you'll pay for your sins
The legions of demons, inside your head
whisper the songs of the dead
Away from the light and into the night
Your name won’t be found in the black book of life
Sinner awake - the hours is late
The end has begun
Too late for regrets, standing alone - You hear the hammer fall
Decision is made, you're fading away - Into the blackest of nights
The legions of demons, inside your head
whisper the songs of the dead
Away from the light and into the night
Eternal damnation

Prisoner

Prisoner
In the silence of the night, While the city sleeps
Reading pages, their stories told
Desire grows deep
The writing’s on the wall, in a deadly silence
in every call
Day in day out
you build your cage to hide away
you build your cage
Fight the oppression
Behind the screen
Rise from the shadows
Fly from this dream
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
The prisoner of a dream
Lost in a web of smiling faces, Virtual fantasy
Your need to belong, Won’t let you be
Avoiding to see yourself
Wasting your life away
Time after time
In search for joy, where none can be found
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
The prisoner of a dream
Fight the oppression
Behind the screen
Rise from the shadows
Fly from this dream
So deep in the heart of this maze
No direction, falling from grace
Running alone, so alone
In a world of illusions
Caught in my wildest dream
Chasing shadows through the night
No sense of time, no sense of life
Behind the screen, the trap of the devil
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
Prisoner of a modern world
A prisoner in his mind
And when the lights go down
you’ll find yourself all alone
No turning back

Fall of Jericho
Behind closed gates
The guarded city's border
Noone can enter, noone will leave
Just trust me, I konw all about
How to make these walls fall low
Marching on around the city walls
Marching on Screaming for the fall of Jericho
The Fall of Jericho
For six long days, a sound can be heard
Trumpets blasting away
On the seventh day
Seven times around the wall
United in one voice, shouting out loud
Marching on around the city walls
Marching on Screaming for the fall of Jericho
Show them no mercy no fear
With God in their hearts
Show them no mercy
When the walls come tumbling down Burn this city to ground
Marching on, around the city walls
Marching on, Screaming for the fall of Jericho
United in one voice, shouting out loud
With God in their hearts
Show them no mercy
The fall of Jericho

Leaves of Winter
Looking outside, in the dead of the night
Far away
Where I can see the leaves of the winter
Falling down
Dead and brown, they cover the ground
The sign of the times
And the time will always pass you by
Yes time is passing you by
The Picture is turning to grey
The cold winds blow much stronger (cold Winds blow)
Stronger than ever (as seasons change)
With these profane suggestions (now winter nights are here at last)
Turning the days into nights
Sweet as a flame that has burned
A song for so long heard
In the sleep of things a lonely light
That fades into black
Only silence remained Where the leaves of winter fell
The cold winds blow much stronger
Stronger than ever
With these profane suggestions
Turning the days into nights
Sweet as a flame that has burned
A song for so long heard
In the sleep of things a lonely light
Facing the winds for one last time
Sweet as a flame that has burned
A song for so long heard
In the sleep of things a lonely light
That fades into black
Only silence remained
Where the leaves of winter ...

Good Enough
Day by day, On your way
Looking all around
You know it all, The rise and fall
Nothing’s left to be found
Suddely, Wait and see
Something unexpected
In a twist of fate, a monster will rise again
With eyes open wide - Petrified
The shapes of fear are all that they can see
In the land of the broken heart - Eternal dark
where you’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t
Your deepest fear came true
Is it good enough for you
Good enough
Many colors in the world
Many ways to follow
You label me, I label you
That’s the game, the game we play
In the land of the broken heart - Eternal dark
where you’re damned if you do - and you’re damned if you don’t
Its never ....
With eyes open wide - Petrified
The shapes of fear are all that they can see
In the land of the broken heart - Eternal dark
where you’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t
In the land of the broken heart - Eternal dark
where you’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t
Its never good enough

YESTERDAY’S NEWS
Now the time has come again, And here we are
Listening those same Empty promises
I’ve been down this road before, For so many times
The same stories with different rhymes
How could I ever dare to believe in you
only lies behind a mask of truth
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
Lights and shadows for a singer of songs
In a game of make belive The smile and the tear
The saviour that you need
Will only make you bleed, In the end
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
How could I ever dare to believe in you
only lies
Evil hides between the lines
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I may fall again, I shall rise again
Your new preaching is yesterday’s News
I fall, I will rise
Broken promisses
Yesterday’s News

Behind the Wall
Heart’s beating faster, Blood is running cold
The fear that we have
Of the unknown .......... don’t you know
Time won’t wait for you
It doesn’t matter what you do
Time will pass you by
Falling into the black, In the eye of the storm
There is no going back
The wheel is spinning constantly
So now, its up to you
One chance to choose what you to do And try something new
Behind the wall, The shadows of doubt
Behind the wall, evolution denied
Behind the wall, Opressed by fears
The fire is fading away and you hide
Behind the wall
Break down the wall of dismay
The fear that we have Of the unknown
So now, its up to you
One chance to choose what you to do
Behind the wall, The shadows of doubt
Behind the wall, evolution denied
Behind the wall, Opressed by fears
The fire is burning out, and you hide
Behind the wall, The shadows of doubt
Behind the wall, evolution dies
Behind the wall, Opressed by fears
The fire is fading away and you hide
Behind the wall
