1. Wolf

Innocence tainted by pure lunacy,
cursed by the slash of a shape-shifting beast.
Oh no, this can’t be, demonic infection,
a doomed changeling.

His future concealed as he begs to be told,
a kiss from the gypsy, he’ll never grow old.
Oh no, this can’t be, demonic infection,
a doomed changeling.

Even a man who’s pure
and says his prayers by night,
he won’t hear your prayers.
Man become a wolf!

When the wolf bane blooms
and the autumn moon is bright,
there’s a full moon tonight.
Man become a wolf!

He who is bitten by a wolf and lives
possession soon follows, no use to resist.
Oh no, this can’t be, cursed by the moonlight,
a doomed changeling.

The madness a turmoil that swells up inside,
to truly find peace is to truly die.
Oh no, this can’t be, demonic infection,
a doomed changeling.

Even a man who’s pure
and says his prayers by night,
he won’t hear your prayers.
Man become a wolf!

When the wolf bane blooms
and the autumn moon is bright,
there’s a full moon tonight.
Man become a wolf!

Now comes the rampage, a killing spree,
hunting his loved ones comes instinctively.
Oh no, it’s maddening, a shape-shifting
demon of pure lunacy.

A shot from the darkness tears through its flesh,
a bullet of silver lays it to rest.
Oh no, it’s maddening, and an innocent
victim finds his peace.

Even a man who’s pure
and says his prayers by night,
he won’t hear your prayers.
Man become a wolf!

When the wolf bane blooms
and the autumn moon is bright,
there’s a full moon tonight.
Man become a wolf!

2. Damien

Mundi universitas
flammescorri mi immigreavi.
Mundi universitas
flammescorri mi immigreavi…

So a beast resides in me,
deep down I always knew.
I never really did fit in,
so diverse from all of you
.
Let him who comprehends
know the number of the beast.
It’s a number of a man,
a number just for me.

As the boy becomes a man
Father’s minions pave the way.
Set in motion now Armageddon,
final conflict, end of days.

I embrace the Hounds of Hell
and the power they oblige,
for the task that lies ahead
the Nazarene I’ll crucify.

They’ll see the raptures of our kingdom,
they’ll see the truth to mankind.
I’ll show what hell truly is,
the monotony of their lives.

When the Jews return to Zion
and a comet fills the sky,
the Holy Roman Empire rises
and you and I must die.

From the eternal sea he rises,
creating armies on either shore,
turning man against his brother
until man exists no more.

“Nazarene, what can you offer?
Since the hour you vomited forth
from the gaping womb of a woman,
you have done nothing but drown men’s
soaring desires in a delusion of sick
sanctimonious morality.

I was conceived of a jackal,
your pain on the cross was
but a splinter compared to the
agony of my father.

I will drive deeper the thorns into
your rancid carcass, you profaner of Isis.
Cursed Nazarene, I will avenge thy torment!”

Now Disciples of the Watch
see your Prince of Darkness rise
through famine and destruction,
the Four Horsemen at my side.

I demand a victory,
I demand a sacrifice,
or spend all eternity in
the flaccid gut of Christ!

When the Jews return to Zion
and a comet fills the sky,
the Holy Roman Empire rises
and you and I must die.

From the eternal sea he rises,
creating armies on either shore,
turning man against his brother
until man exists no more.

Mundi universitas
flammescorri mi immigreavi.
Mundi universitas
flammescorri mi immigreavi…

3. Jack

I am a bastard son!
Conceived of a hundred men,
now I’m the chosen one.

Back, looking back!
Father William called me Johnny
but my mother called me Jack.

I scream out to you!
As I see them take you,
Hell, it put me through.

You gave me life then
ripped out my emotion
and replaced it with a knife.

I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you’re my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you’re gone.

I’ve seen the rain wash
over you a thousand times.
Your flesh summons me,
God knows why.

Repent your sins to me!

Now you’re no different now!
Still the same, the Devil’s Whore,
Lilith on the prowl.

I’ve got something for you!
I know what real pain is
and you will too!

I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you’re my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you’re gone.

4. Ghost of Freedom

Every time you think about it,
it tears you up inside.
You curse the day your mother
told you your father died.

Now you’re always searching,
searching for the reason why I’ve gone.
But I will always be here by your side,
through the darkest night.

Here I’ll stand on the firing line,
here I’ll walk through the field where I died.
I will fight and let the voice ring true,
I am the ghost standing next to you.

Every night you go to sleep
you pray the Lord my soul to keep.
You don’t know I’ve not gone away.

You see I watch over fighting men
so they can have peace again, and
maybe someday you will all be free.

Here I’ll stand on the firing line,
here I’ll walk through the field where I died.
I will fight and let the voice ring true,
I am the ghost standing next to you.

You speak to me and I feel your
pride assuring me I’ll never die,
I write Mother: “He’s here with me!”

He’s in our minds, he’s in our souls.
Of sacrifice his story’s told, he holds
the flame of freedom for all to see.

Here we stand on the firing line,
here I’ll walk in the field where I fight.
I will fight, or die for liberty with the
ghost standing next to me.

Don’t tread on me,
live free or die.
Don’t tread on me,
live free or die…

To our fallen brothers,
you died to keep us free!
To our fallen brothers
who gave us liberty!

5. Im-Ho-Tep (Pharaoh’s Curse)

Time is the bond of mortal life,
Isis with the scroll of life raised
her love Osiris from the dead.

Live can transcend the mortal coil,
with this script the high priest of the
Pharaoh commits his sacrilege.

Death is but a threshold to
another life, you will arrive.
With this power you shall live
again, there is no end.

You’ll live again!

Love was the curse upon my soul,
for it I would risk salvation and utilize
the scroll to save this one.

Time is the sentence for my sin,
three thousand years my angry soul is been
trapped inside this tomb of my condemn.

Death is but a threshold
to another life, I will arrive.
With this power I shall live again.
There is no end, I’ll live again!

Dawn shines a light on pain untold!
Scarred from the Millennia, the heart
that beats inside my chest is cold.

Rise, I’m rising from these sands of time!
By the scarab’s power I am given strength,
with hate in hand this misery I drink.

Death is but a threshold
to another life, I will arrive.
And with this power I shall live again.
There is no end, this pain won’t end!

6. Jekyll & Hyde

What’s the reason
for me to be this way?
I’m lying on the floor, I’ve
broken through some door.

I don’t know how I came to this!
There is bloodlust in my eyes,
and someone in my mind saying:

“I have forced you here,
I’m hiding, right here inside you.
Trapped in here so long, you’ll find
me growing in every man!”

Who is this that speaks to me,
tearing down my mind, my reality?
This must certainly be the one,
what will I pay for this?

This evil synthesis!

“I have forced you here,
I’m hiding, right here inside you.
Trapped in here so long, you’ll find
me growing in every man!”

I’m out of control,
evil takes my soul!

“I can feel you inside me…”
“Of course, yes you can!”
“You’re not stronger than me!”

“I am you!”
“I won’t let you!”
“I will own you!”

“No, you can’t have me!”

I won’t let you destroy me,
you took away my life
with your wicked seed.

If you’re able to
take control you’ll bring
damnation upon my soul!

“I have forced you here,
I’m hiding, right here inside you.
Trapped in here so long, you’ll find
me growing in every man!”

7. Dragon’s Child

Oh beware, the creature
comes this way.
Oh beware, he’ll take you away!

Since the dawn of time he’s been here,
forgotten son testing all our fears.
Nature’s mistake, he sees no end,
the dragon’s child walks among man.

For centuries past many tribes
know the tales of men not returning
when they’ve gone there.

And those who’ve returned can’t
describe what they’ve seen.
Their hair has turned white,
and they’ve gone insane.

Oh beware the blackened water,
the creature has come to take you away.
Oh beware unholy water on this dying day!

8. Transylvania (Iron Maiden cover)

(Instrumental)

9. Frankenstein

A mastermind in the old watchtower,
prying eyes must never find,
playing God in the final hour.
Insanity, such a fine line!

Overwhelmed by the mourning process
and the loss of his dearly loved,
the doctor’s work is now obsession.
What is life, what’s beyond?

He wants to know what it’s like to be God,
creating life with his own hands,
to reanimate lifeless tissues.
The Devil’s work, the doctor’s plan!

A man of wealth and a genius mind,
a slave to passion and his morbid side
robbing graves of the newly dead.
Erratic tendencies, a troubled mind!

I will create in my own image,
if God can then why can’t I?
No thought of the consequences,
I’ve got to know the meaning of life.

I will create in my own image,
if God can then why can’t I?
No thought of the consequences,
I’ve got to know the meaning of life.

Lightning strikes, it’s the witching hour,
the monstrosity comes alive.
A victim of man’s vanity born in delirium,
a deranged child.

He turns his back on his own creation,
chaos ensues, the innocent die.
Who’s the monster, who’s the victim?
Crucify, crucify!

I will create in my own image,
if God can then why can’t I?
No thought of the consequences,
I’ve got to know the meaning of life.

10. Dracula

Do you believe in love,
do you believe in destiny?
True love may come only
once in a thousand lifetimes.

I too have loved,
they took her from me.
I prayed for her soul,
I prayed for her peace.

When I close my eyes
I see her face, it comforts me.
When I close my eyes
memories cut like a knife.

The blood is the life
and Christ I defy.
My sworn enemy,
birth of a new creed!

Is this my reward for
serving God’s own war,
the blood I’ve spilled up
for faith fulfilled?

To damn her, a disgrace,
you spit back in my face.
I served you loyally and
you spew blasphemy!

I avenge with darkness,
the blood is the life.
The Order of the Dragon,
I feed on human life.

There are far worse things
awaiting man than death.
Come taste what I have seen,
I’m spreading my disease!

I will feed upon His precious child!
The human race will bleed,
they will serve my need.

I avenge with darkness,
the blood is the life.
The Order of the Dragon,
I feed on human life.

I am the dragon of blood,
the relentless prince of pain.
Renouncing God off his throne,
my blood is forever stained.

For true love I shall avenge,
I defy the creed that damned her!

I am the dragon of blood,
the relentless prince of pain.
Renouncing God off his throne,
my blood is forever stained.

I am the dragon of blood,
the relentless prince of pain.
Renouncing God off his throne,
my blood is forever stained.

For true love I shall avenge,
I defy the creed that damned her!

11. The Phantom Opera Ghost

Christine:
I feel you, from beyond the
walls you speak to me.

Phantom:
Christine my love,
Paris now will worship you.
You will star soon,
I’ll kill to make it sure for you.

Christine:
Oh my love, won’t you please
show yourself to me?

Phantom:
Soon I’ll take you,
in my kingdom you’re the queen.
It’s dark and peaceful
but my face you’ll never see, no!

Oh Christine,
on this eve I will come for you!

Christine:
Erik my love,
I’ve waited all my life for you.
Please just take me,
I need to be with you.

Phantom:
Take my hand,
through the catacombs
my lair awaits.

Christine:
Caverns, mazes,
the underworld and
the blackest lake.

Enticing danger!
your passion feeds me,
I’m your slave!

Now I’ve bathed in fear,
I will not leave here.

Phantom:
Breathe deep the darkness,
breathe deep the madness.

Christine:
I’m so cold inside,
mental suicide.

Phantom:
Breathe deep the darkness,
breathe deep the sadness.

Oh Christine, don’t you know
that it’s all for you?
Carlotta’s head and the other
deaths I planned.

All for you to have your
night in the spotlight,
from now on forevermore
you will only sing for me.

Christine:
So you are, you are the legend,
the phantom opera ghost.

Phantom:
I am what man has made me
with his hate and cruel ways.

Christine:
Why are you?

Phantom:
Why am I?

Christine & Phantom:
The phantom opera ghost!

Christine:
I have to see…

Phantom:
You’ll never see…

Christine & Phantom:
…what’s behind the mask.

Phantom:
No!

Christine:
I’m so torn between love,
death, life, and hate.

Phantom:
Don’t you doubt me,
what we have is just our fate.
I now own you, from this day
forth you’ll be my slave.

Christine:
Oh dear God, for this
life I’ve lost the will.

Phantom:
No this can’t be, I’d rather you
die than spoil my dream
Myself I’ll kill, if I can’t have
you no one will!
