Album Lyrics
1. Angels of Pain
Full moon stares at me
from the ceiling
Shadows are sucking
at my breath
Mind mumbles
in its hibernated halfworld
Love and life grow cold
foretold of their death
Loneliness is full of echoes
distant calls
You know you’re lost
when they’re coming
out of the walls
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll get inside you
they’ll drive you insane
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll make you reach
your final breaking strain
Wingbeat, heartbeat
the rhythms are alike
Loe one, flutter, stop
and down you go
The jar that holds
this God created spirit
breaks if you bring
its host too low
Loneliness is full of echoes
distant calls
You know you’re lost
when they’re coming
out of the walls
The sunken stare in their eyes
hollow and blind
Faces with no expression
always leering once behind
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll get inside you
they’ll drive you insane
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll make you reach
your final breaking strain
It’s not the years
that wear you down
You grow old by
what they contain
If you choose to bleed
the last laugh is on you
Mocking you
to the oblivion
The angels of pain
Sometimes
I get compelled by the mirrors
To see the image
of what might have been
Hours turn to eons
I dare not to blink my eye
Haunted face of myself
is all that I’ve seen
The message brought home
is not gentle “father to son”
They throw the revelations
like bullts from a gun
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll get inside you
they’ll drive you insane
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
They’ll make you reach
your final breaking strain
Angels of pain
you’ll fight in vain
Between me and you
they’ll drive you insane
Angels of pain you’ll fight in vain
They’ll make you reach
your final breaking strain
They will drive you insane
They’ll never leave
the angels of pain
2. E. T. I.
I see a burning streak
in the dark sky
The stars above are turning pale
A faceless messiah
beast from the outer space
TV-legions all hail
The one we’ve all
been waiting for
Is it here and now?
With faces proud
but the heart’s grown small
We stand in shaky reception
Overloaded minds
trying to predefine
the moment of truth or deception
The one we’ve all
been waiting for
Is it here and now?
Will we be given an answer?
Does it know who we are?
Will we see a brighter future
by the light of this star?
The gods of billions
will share just one fate
Crushed down beneath
the new one’s weight
Will we be given an answer
if it knows who we are?
Will we see a brighter future
by the light of this star?
Telescopes and glassy faces
forced to touch and to feel
Covering beneath the glory
and the threat made real
by the light of this star
Will we be given an answer
if it knows who we are?
Will we see a greater future
by the light of this star?
Telescopes and glassy faces
forced to touch and to feel
Covering beneath the glory
and the threat made real
Will we be given an answer
if it knows who we are?
Will we see a greater future
by the light of this star?
Telescopes and glassy faces
forced to touch and to feel
Covering beneath the glory
and the threat made real
3. Shades in Glass
Do you know the feeling
Like your blood in your veins
Ceases its flow
You spirit floats in the night
Like the light less moon hanging low
Walk to the shore by the sea of dreams
And your heart would love to sail
You’re building sand castles
Dangerously frail
Like shades in glass
Just shades in glass
The wind is cold out there
But it carries your thoughts
Like a long lost friend
You were afraid to embrace
But you were glad in the end
Open you arms to the sky
Your flesh won’t ever leave the ground
Small pleasures, enlightenment
May still be found
They’re shades in glass
Just shades in glass
Still heartbroken
Still blinded by tears
Don’t walk away after
All those bitter years
You read the pages you wrote
For yourself long time ago
And it seems it was someone else
You only used to know
Shades in glass
Just shades in glass
They’re shades in glass
Just shades in glass
They’re shades in glass
Shades in glass
4. As One
This world I see
perception of essential me
It turns wit time
of its own
The will stays strong
to walk the right
to correct the wrong
Collect and learn
what can be known
Mirage of wonder
grow into me
They’ll give me
a stronger way to be
I’d see through
darkness to the sun
I’d see you
if we could be as one
The earthern sand
the stars shine
from the palm of my hand
A breach of the solitude
where I stand
The light of the souls
almost reaching me
Will it give me
a stranger way to be
I’d see through
darkness to the sun
I’d see you
if we could be as one
As one
I’d see through
darkness to the sun
I’d see you
if we could be as one
I’d see through
darkness to the sun
The stars in the palm
of my hand
I’d see you
if we could be as one
5. State of Grace
I see the hill
scattered to horizons
They’ve haunted my dreams
for a long time
The bones of ancestors
lay unrestful
They’re calling me
to their shrine
And I struggle
With the season before the snow
The ground is hard with ice
the road beckons, I’ll follow
Home must be left
to know the longing
The toes will grow numb
from the frost
I used to know
where I was heading for
Somewhere, somehow
it just got lost
I’d give anything
for the signs in the sky
Wheels of fire wild at play
spinning, ascending
To learn that there’s more than
just to live and die
Some love would be sweet
before the final ending
I will dream myself alive
awaiting light
The pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
Where the starved souls will revive
awaiting light
This pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
I’d give anything
for the signs in the sky
To know there’s more
than just to live and die
I will dream myself alive
awaiting light
This pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
Where the starved souls will revive
awaiting light
This pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
I will dream myself alive
awaiting light
This pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
Where the starved souls will revive
awaiting light
This pilgrim will arrive
to the state of grace
To the state of grace
To the state of grace
6. Race the Light
The orbital angels are gliding
Their messages confused
The new age is out from hiding
The holy grail won’t be refused
The years have grown to the mountains
They’ll have wings before long
The voices of the small are drowned now
By distant sons and their song
All the great schemes and dreams
They’re fused into one
Blow my mind or feed my head
I set my sails straight
To the wind from the sun
From ultraviolet to the infrared
I’ll race the light
I will now
The black void is filled with white noise
The downpour of the hardest rain
Swam under the dwindling ozone
As the blue whales are dealt cocaine
Between the rising skylines
There’s hope for a new dawn
The earth’s spin will be reversed soon
The saints will yield to the devil’s spawn
The sword of their heaven
Might strike and spoil their fun
Let’s hope its on Mars instead
I set my sails straight
To the wind from the sun
From ultraviolet to the infrared
I’ll race the light
I will now, I’ll race the light
I will now
All the great schemes and dreams
They’re fused into one
Blow my mind or feed my head
I set my sails straight
To the wind from the sun
From ultraviolet to the infrared
I’ll race the light
I will now, I’ll race the light
I will now, I’ll race the light
7. Expected to Heal
It’s a moon alley
Somewhere in time
And the door is closed
But not by the key
In darkness I
Step outside of me
What have I become
Numb to the pain?
A state of mind
Without a name
A pulse beat ticking like a clock
From twelve to zero
A hero
With nobody knowing it
Exposed like an open wound
The infection of life
Shows signs, takes no hold
Expected to heal
The remains of my strength
I’m calling you, don’t leave me now
I must find this child of passion
Once within, that I’ve lost somehow
This pale image of rage
No longer keeps me warm
In the back of my mind
I must be reborn
Exposed like an open wound
The infection of life
Shows signs, takes no hold
Expected to heal
Exposed like an open wound
The infection of life
Shows signs, takes no hold
Expected to heal
8. Sleepless
Tonight the wind comes from afar
with a distant call
Scent of valleys and fields
in early fall
There’s ache in my heart
a mystery deep within the bones
She lays beside me asleep
She sometimes softly moans
Everything I do, every word I say
they’re solid by the light of day
The night fills with dreams
I wish them real
There is no deeper way to feel
Oh, to feel
Does she understand
if I’m distant and feeling lost
Hiding inside one’s self
is not dishonest
My fingers are not crossed
sometimes I don’t feel
as good or strong
as I would like to be
I’d bring peace to her heart
if I could find some also for me
Everything I do, every word I say
they’re solid by the light of day
The night fills with dreams
I wish them real
There is no deeper way to feel
Ooh…
Tonight the wind comes from afar
9. The Teeth
It’s no surprise
There’ll be murder to my name
I’m disgusted at the naivety
Of another man’s blues
I’m tempered
By the force of hatred
My brain floats in quicksilver
Dagger of migraine for a fuse
Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth
Mountains
Have been raised against me
I’m a shooting star
On a collision course
Nothing will stand
The impact of my speed
Multiply destruction
To the degree
I’m the source
Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth
Educated through the years
Attitudes moralized and set
The time goes by
Waiting for the dreams
You haven’t had yet
All the while the sanity drains out
From the balls of your feet
There’s nothing left but hunger
And this world you’re forced to eat
Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
Race me
Through thundering sky
Tumble with the brave
The bridge of lightning is thin
Race me
Across the torn earth
Tremble with shock wave
My world here within
All I can feel, my teeth

10. Stigmata (I Feel for You)
I am the guardian angel
To these demons within
The cells of my flesh
Contain the blood of generation untold
The soul reaches out
Writing on this stake of earthly sin
Hoping for transcendence
The answers to unfold
Hide away
Inside yourself forever
All that you touch may cause you harm
Hide away
No, don’t look back never ever
You, yourself in the charm
The dark waters of your sunconscious
Must be guarded well
Your own feelings are deceitful
No one is safe from this sinner’s hell
Wounded hearts in need of faith
Sweet water to our parched throats
Religious schizophrenia
The old you becomes the scapegoat
Hide away
Inside yourself forever
Give up the control
Give up the blame
Hide away
No, don’t look back never ever
You never owned your flesh, only your name
You’re trying to nail youself down
It won’t stay down
You’re trying to nail yourself down
I won’t stay down
You’re trying to nail youself down
It won’t stay down
You’re trying to nail yourself down
They won’t stay down
All your prayers
They’re just words thrown to the wind
Muddled and rearranged
Devoid of all sense
There’s no way to tell
Who or what they might bring
I’m the only hope
Your last defense
Your last defense
Know the price of unleashed empathy
Too much of it will get you killed
Recognize yourself, a tiny world among the others
Balanced, defined, but never fulfilled
I feel for you
11. Live Hard Die Hard
There’s a sign, there’s a star
It rises over the sea
There’s a voice that calls in whisper
And it might set you free
The pain has a lesson to teach
And we always get taught
Every joy is a forbidden fruit
And we always get caught
Live hard, you can make it
Die hard, set yourself free
Live hard, you can make it
Your soul is a miracle
It glows brightly to my eyes
But you won’t raise your stare
To the light beyond the skies
Don’t you wanna learn, don’t you wanna burn
Don’t you wanna find out
We still have time enough
To know what it’s all about
The days go by melting to a gray line
In the dead of the night there’s a short relief
You gotta wake up, I’ve given you the sign
I’ve shown you the way, just take my hand
12. Iron Stars
The earth shook and the mighty angels wept
The brooms of fire sadly swept
In a flash of light all we knew was lost
No one was left to bear the cost
Parasites were fed, weak hearts had bled
Mediocres were lost in between
In the end they all screamed and burned
The faulty ones laughed and died unseen
The darkness rules the molten graves alone
Where millions of fools lived in sin
All those who bowed to the unholy throne
Were to see the skull beneath the grin
Torches from hell, let out their deadly scream
The demons cracked the blue sky with flames
Riding through flesh and steel on a laser beam
Ridding the unborn of their names
Iron stars in their mindless courses
Corpses blown by the wind
Thunder rolled with heavenly horses
As they crashed and were destroyed
The earth shook and the mighty angels wept
The brooms of fire sadly swept
Voices of those who had to die in vain
Can be heard echoing through the night
A useless replay of their endless pain
Never finding their way to the light
13. No Return
God knows I love you
Meaning I love you as much as I can
How could you trust me
I should’ve said
I’m not the right kind of man
Don’t wanna tell more lies
Don’t wanna blind your eyes
We can’t go on, our time has gone
Oh can’t you see, oh can’t you see
There is no return
Oh baby, no return
God knows it hurts me
To see how this betrayal of mine hurts you
I thought that this time
I wouldn’t let you down but now I do
Don’t wanna tell more lies
Don’t wanna blind your eyes
Now it must be clear
You weren’t even near
To my heart, lies from the start
There’s no return
Oh baby, no return
You must bury your love deep
Don’t let the painful cracks
Of broken heart show
But never turn cold
Tomorrow stays there always
So you’ll never know
I won’t tell more lies
I won’t blind your eyes
But someone may and that’s the way
Of no return
Oh baby, no return
14. Breathing Fire
All is twisted, all I see is glowing red
Fire is on my tongue, in my eye
It is in my head
Smoke of burning village fills my mouth
Screams fill my ears, I am young
I am free, I am wild and I am fierce
Breathing fire, the viper’s son
Golden is my hide
And my wings are darker than black
Three feet long
Are the nails that grow on my back
Screaming with hatred eyes blazing insane
Eating corpses thrusting souls into pain
15. Dancing on the Wire
You are the child of fire and I’m of ice
And you struggle to be a flyer whereas shadows are my disguise
You reach for the heights, the loneliness of majesty
In the kaleidoscope of lights you have reached your victory
So bitter so sweet
You are dancing on the wire, you laugh and I weep
You are dancing on the wire and my sorrow has grown deep
From my love you were delighted
Though it was clear that we sailed on different streams
Like the stars we are divided and I’ll be lost in your dreams
So bitter so sweet
You are dancing on the wire, you hear the highest praise
You are dancing on the wire and I’m no one in so place
On the wire
You reach for the heights, the loneliness of majesty
In the kaleidoscope of lights you have reached your victory
So bitter so sweet
You are dancing on the wire, you laugh and I weep
You’re dancing on the wire, you fly and I creep
You’re dancing on the wire and I’m falling out of sight
You’re dancing, dancing, dancing, ’till you fall amidst your flight
Like me into the night
16. Wings of Darkness
The skies are open, smell of a danger in the air
We ride in the northwind over the mountains without a care
Adventures calling beyond the faraway stars
The battles has been won, falling enemies ships on fire
Diving through the void, the wings are spread to take us higher
No place to call home in underworld or sky
Living on the edge, looking danger into the eye
Flying towards the stars so bright
Straight into the heart of the night
Wings of darkness carrying the spirits of us
The skies are open for atomic Vikings to roam
And when the quest is ended, Vallhalla will then be our home
No place is safe from us in underworld of sky
Living on the edge, looking danger into the eye
17. Rose on the Grave
Sound of falling water
in the deserted halls
Red light dims to extinction
as the darkness falls
Circuits blocked underground
senility of mechanical brain
No one to stop the current
of madness
no one to share your pain
Hear that static cracking
through your sleep
Eaten by corrosion
without eyes you weep
Just a rose on the grave
Rose, rose on the grave
You cannot escape
the dark dreams haunting you
You’ve died for thousand years
hoping this time it would be true
They gave you the power
by the power you were deceived
You fulfilled the order
look what you have received
Radar eyes blinded
by the ancient storm
Now your mind is capable
only to deform
Just a rose on the grave
Rose, rose on the grave
Just a rose on the grave
Rose, rose on the grave
Rose on the grave
Rose on the grave
18. The Chosen
Did you see the black snow falling
Did you see the grey sky bleed
Have you felt the fear that’s growing
Born out of a senseless greed
This world keeps on turning
For us? I don’t know
Down here too few are learning
Too few and way too slow
Blinded led by the chains held by whoever that reigns
Innocence lies with the dead, out with their remains
Did we want to be the chosen
No forced by the creed
Did we have to be the chosen
No, what do we need, do we smile or bleed
There are those who stare with a snake eyes
Asking to join their cause
Lost souls who live to hypnotize
Tricked themselves by a devious force
Stranger may walk the cold streets
Of your hometown
Hand on his heart that never beats
Wearing a barbed wire crown
Is the truth for us to say, are we been taken away
When the world turns black the price will be ours to pay
Did we want to be the chosen
No forced by the creed
Did we have to be the chosen
No, what do we need
Can you place your trust in this world unjust
Affections misplaced expose it two-faced
Hearts of stone, ice cold, stupidity so bold
It’s easy to drown, the highest walls come down
Down we go
19. Kill the King (Rainbow cover)
Danger, danger, the Queen’s about to kill
There’s a stranger, stranger, and life about to spill
Oh no, move away from harm
I need a spell and a charm
Fly like the wind
I’m no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on
Kill the King
Tear him down
Kill the King
Strike him down
Power, power, it happens every day
Power, devour all along the way
Oh no, move me out of harm
I need a spell and a charm
Fly like the wind
I’m no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on
Kill the King
Treason, treason, the spectre looms again
Treason, reason, the realm is safe and then
Oh no, move away from harm
I need a spell and a charm
Fly like the rainbow
I’m no pawn, so be gone, speed on and on
Kill the King
Tear him down
Kill the King
Got to take his crown
Kill the King
He’ll rule no more
Strike him dead
The people roar
Kill the King
Take his head
Down, down, down, down
Oh, kill
Oh, kill
Oh oh
20. Do You Wanna Live Forever
Tell me I’m a fool with my feet off the ground
The way that I see it, it’s the other way around
Say that I’m a dreamer who’s walking on air
Might as well be water, why should I care
There are things that must be sought
And I found them before you
My soul just can’t be bought
Why, do you wanna live forever
Trying to make things last
If you wanna live forever
Break out of your cast
Things that I’m feeling could be out of this earth
Got to face the new ages giving their birth
You fall for the popular call
Got no guts to take the lead
Have a drink and forget it all
Why, do you wanna live forever
Trying to make things last
If you wanna live forever
Break out of your cast
Why, do you wanna live forever
The truth might hit you blind
If you wanna live forever
Better widen your mind
Why, do you wanna live forever
The spirits were made to last
If you wanna live forever
Take a risk and move fast
