01. Heroes Of Our Time

Lost in a dream, finally it seems,
Emptiness and everlasting madness,
See the sadness grow, watching as we know,
Blinded for our journey for the world,
Call for us, the power in all of us,
So far beyond the blackened sky tonight...
Glorious, forever more in us,
We are victorious, and so alive.

We'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Dream for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Star chaser...

Fly towards the storm, see the world reborn,
Feel the pain inside, the voice, the sorrow,
Across the distant shores, find the open door,
Stand alone, in judgement for tomorrow.

Years of pain still haunt us all, we saw the last sunrise,
Take me home, in freedom, for a lifetime...
Praying on for the silence, and the last tears will blind,
So glorious, this fight inside, united we stand.

And we'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Dream for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Star chaser...

Free from this world, here for the last time,
Oceans collide inside of us all,
Believe who we are,
The phoenix will guide us,
Freedom will rise once again.

(Solos)

Save us tonight, the last hope for all of us,
Light-years gone by, we're still holding on,
Save us tonight, a star shines in all of us,
Far beyond our lives, still our glory lives on.

And we'll all find our sacrifice tomorrow,
Our journey on towards a brighter day,
Silent tears we left behind, still so far away,
Across the endless sands,
Through the fields of our despair,
Dream for all eternity, we stand, yeah,
Rise above the universe tonight,
Star chaser...Star chaser...

Our kingdom come, we stand as one,
And we will live for always evermore...

02. The Fire Still Burns

Finally all the world will see,
Rise again before the endless silence,
Look at the soul before we'll all be free,
Light the path beneath a blackened, blackened sky.

One final sacrifice, this night belongs to me,
Turn back before the dawn of winter,
So far away the cries that fallen angels free,
Through my mind tonight, our journey ever after.

Never ending solitude, this is your life to be,
So cold and dark, the voice of sadness,
Suffering enormous pain, the truth of all to be,
Crawling back to life through ever-blinding darkness.

Free falling, face falling, find the life to hold on,
Souls fearless, pain reveal us, rise now they are gone,
And as they ride away forsake the one to save us,
Winter storming ever last fallen world,
We now united in a lifetime alone,
Won't you wait for the silence so strong,
Wait for the dawn.

Tonight, falling like the rain in silent teeming song,
Feel the shattered dreams, one thousand voices crying,
Raging endlessly they come, whoa,
And the morning light the high, the darkened days gone by,
And the sun will shine again across the blazing skies,
Glorious eternally we'll rise above the world,
Marching on to victory we fight,
The fire still burns...

Looking back out past the lives, their memories to see,
Flick through the passages of silence,
Hidden by the sacrifice to set the demons free,
Now they understand re-flame the land relentless.

Fear calling, transforming, stand alone in our time,
Aggravation, decimation, slay the vision divine,
And all the stars fall around the world tonight,
Silent forces from a past life return,
Wait for the silence in a world so alone,
Til' we touch the horizon beyond,
Fly through the storm.

Tonight, falling like the rain in silent teeming song,
Feel the shattered dreams, one thousand voices crying,
Raging endlessly they come, whoa,
And the morning light the high, the darkened days gone by,
And the sun will shine again across the blazing skies,
Glorious eternally we'll rise above the world,
Marching on to victory we fight,
The fire still burns...

The tears in your eyes,
A lifetime of misery,
In silence we stand all alone for the fate of our own destiny,
A lifetime of lies,
One chance at this fantasy,
The judgement will pass for the cries of the world that has faded from me.

(Solos)

Tonight, falling like the rain in silent teeming song,
Feel the shattered dreams, one thousand voices crying,
Raging endlessly they come, whoa,
And the morning light the high, the darkened days gone by,
And the sun will shine again across the blazing skies,
Glorious eternally we'll rise above the world,
Marching on to victory we fight,
The fire still burns...

03. Reasons To Live

Once again I'm here alone, my secret life awaits me,
Still a thousand miles away from a land of broken dreams,
Night falls and the stream is shining, forced the section behind the lines,
Hours breached in endless we go, time and time again.

Try to understand, desperately locked in a dream in my hand,
Will you wait along for me tonight,
Hold me, save me.

A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives,
One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive,
Cry for the day to return like no one can understand,
We all face our fears in the world,
We all hold our place in the universe,
For eternity...

Hide the lines precede myself, erase the past from my space,
In the tears of loneliness and far across the land,
Once sure, but my eyes are blinded,
Fate detached for a place to hide,
Lost generations so far, ancient light returns.

Come and see the light, taken away by the man in the skies,
Won't you wait along again tonight,
Save me, Save me.

A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives,
One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive,
Cry for the day to return like no one can understand,
We all face our fears in the world,
We all hold our place in the universe,
For eternity...

(Solos)

Try to understand, desperately locked in a dream in my hand,
Will you wait along for me tonight,
Hold me, save me.

A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives,
One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive,
Cry for the day to return like no one can understand,
Our past has returned to us all,
Our memories will fly free forever,
So far from the cries of the world,
For eternity...

04. Heartbreak Armageddon

Highway of emptiness outside the burning world;
Rise again, this quest for our salvation!
Running faster; the savage laughter, the daylight fades away.
Nothing left but the life we left behind.

Ever searching, the hidden faces, the hatred pours inside
Broken down by the fire we left; be strong!
Light years away, empty words between us
So turn away, say goodbye for the last time tonight!

Still lost in the loneliness a life time ago,
Hanging on as we pass through the fields
These pieces of our lives will lead the long journey home
And the wounds never heal!

So, fly for the last time and the fire burns within
Silently we stand, in a long forgotten wasteland!
Rise through the lost ages, hope they will bring...
Free forever more, and the dream will never die!

Devastation, a lost connection, the beat down man returns.
So confused and alone for one more time.
Crush defeated, the force around me, the prisoner trapped inside
System down-field with intimate tonight.

Time after time, promises of freedom...
We'll leave the past behind and strike for the first time tonight!
Still mystified, my life of creation may show.
After all of the times we've been through...
These memories and empty words were all lost in vain
And the scars never heal!

So, fly for the last time and the fire burns within
Silently we stand, in a long forgotten wasteland!
Rise through the lost ages, hope they will bring...
Free forever more, and the dream will never die!

(Solos)

Fly, for the last time and the fire burns within
Silently we stand, in a long forgotten wasteland!
Rise through the lost ages, hope they will bring...
Free forever more, and the dream will never die!

Fly, for the last time and the fire burns within
Silently we stand, in a long forgotten wasteland!
Rise through the lost ages, hope they will bring...
Free forever more, and the dream will never die!
Whoah, and the dream will never die!

05. The Last Journey Home

Strangers to reason, our bleeding hearts so cold,
Life brings a change it seems, fear will blind the soul,
In the silence one only will know,
Cast away can it fall on the wastelands.

Send the soul from the forgotten sickness, and save his life,
Challenge the dream before the long departing, your mind is right,
Whoa, oh, oh,
Hear the burning thunder roar

Still lost in a fire storm,
Tonight we feel the past return.

Lost inside the dream, beside the life we'll live forever,
Still the wasted time that burning we love,
One thousand shattered voices, lost inside an endless wonder,
Tonight her voice will take me home.

Shine glorious we ride, we stare into the blackened sky,
Save the last command, the virtue blinding,
So far beyond the sun, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silence stands for our last journey home.

(Mini solo)

Our lives intensified, mutation, frustration,
Ever lasting lifetime in beyond the world,
We'll travel endlessly, they're moving, he's jointed,
One man can understand his sad misery.

(Solos)

They've taken my heart,
They've taken my soul,
And now we stand below in sanity.

In time we'll see the past unwind,
Alive, still wander in a fallen land,
One more time we stare into the blackened sky,
For tonight, in our hearts now we feel,
One last time see our destiny reveal.

Shine glorious we ride, we stare into the blackened sky,
Save the last command, the virtue blinding,
So far beyond the sun, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, the silence stands for our last journey...

Shine glorious tonight, still blinded by the blackened sun,
Save the last command, forever rising,
So far beyond they come, still blinded with the fire inside,
Once alone again, silence stands for our last journey home.

Silence stands for our last journey home.

06. A Flame For Freedom

There is a time a'coming
The tribes and clans will rise
They'll have thunder in their hearts
They'll have lightning in their eyes
The pipe and the drum will be calling
Calling once again
Stand beside your brothers
All ye, that are men

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and me

They'll be sending out the soldiers
To stamp the fires out
Then we must burn more brightly
We'll lift our voices and shout
It'll be a time for axe 'n' sword
And battle flags will wave
There'll be a haunting sound in the hills
Calling out the brave

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and me
Let it shine

Oh but the women will weep
And the children will fret
'Cause they know the price will be dear
But they understand that it's better to die free
Than live a life of fear

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and me

07. Inside The Winter Storm

Strangers they come with the rise of the sun,
To escape from this madness forever,
Rivers run dry, bringing holes in the sky,
As the empire is fading away.

Silently watch now, and the lost souls run wild,
In a time long forgotten, forever,
Hate brings us sadness and the dawn of the world,
But this nightmare will still carry on.

Through the day we'll find a way, we're lost beneath the stars,
Faceless they follow, and we all stand as one,
Long wasted tears, but the laugh forever shining,
One stand one last command to end it all.

Outside the world in a fallen land, turn away from my despair,
We stand alone in a silent dream, lost within eternity,
Rise again and try to understand.

The light for the world will save us tonight,
Redemption still so far away,
Marching on inside of our loneliness,
Still searching for all that remains.

And time will pass me by,
The light not so far away,
Will the sons of the night, now our blood runs into the ocean,
Tomorrow we're gone, our souls rising up to the sun.

The light for the world will save us tonight,
Redemption still so far away,
Marching on inside of our loneliness,
Still searching for all that remains.

It's just one wasted life, in one wasted land,
Suffering so far, and so alive,
It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Until the end of time,
Inside the winter storm.

(Solos)

Outside the world in a fallen land, turn away from my despair,
We stand alone in a silent dream, lost within eternity,
Rise again and try to understand.

The light for the world will save us tonight,
Redemption still so far away,
Marching on inside of our loneliness,
Still searching for all that remains.

It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Suffering so far, and so alive,
It's just one wasted man, in one wasted land,
Until the end of time,
Inside the winter storm.

Inside the winter storm.

08. The Warrior Inside

So many fires bring mass devastation,
Many search in sad desperation,
Jeopardise the right to hide from sad existence,
Nothing left, still searching for something,
Deeper needs surprise,
Wait for the devil inside us, fly forever more.

Tossed all about and you're all alone, evasion in your eyes,
I will be waiting tomorrow,
Striving to understand, wasting a life not meant to be,
Twisted and so broken once again,
And the promises we cast away will shine a guiding light,
Victim of your dream of denial.

Take my hand, this one last time,
Face the world before us, the warrior inside,
In a lifetime of disaster, is a battle to the end,
Trying to stand our life, let's carry on,
And forever, this time.

Battered, beaten, forced to submission,
Stricken by your fatal decision,
Suddenly it's time to say your last goodbyes,
Misery remains voluntary, all across the sky,
Wait through the blistering madness,
Free forever more.

Blinded my eyes was filtering, mutation cast aside,
I still beware til' tomorrow,
Stand to a toxic man, forced to a life of yesterday,
These are our salvation crushed and burned,
Down this lonely road, received the day our dreams are brushed aside,
Can't forget this emptiness in time.

Take my hand, this one last time,
Face the world before us, the warrior inside,
In a lifetime of disaster, is a battle to the end,
Trying to stand our life, let's carry on,
And forever, this time.

See through the skies,
Far beyond the road tonight,
Here the sounds of freedom ring,
In a silent dream, and a million miles away.

See through the skies, far beyond our world tonight,
Hear the sounds of freedom ring,
In a silent dream,
And a million miles away.

Reach for the stars,
And ever last forever free,
In our hearts for a thousand years,
And a thousand lifetimes before.

And the dawn of a new day will rise a light for us all.

09. Strike Of The Ninja

Eternal temptation, their eyes to the sky
This nightmare is everywhere, my eyes open wide
Crash on through troubled waters, oceans collide
We stand alone until the end, we fight side by side

Standing strong together, marching forever on
Fire in the heavens, now that our time has come

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

The sky will turn black as nightfall appears
The hatred surrounding, they hide in great fear
The evil all around, the sound they will hear
Will not be for long now, the time it is near

Raising hell forever, still millenniums go by
Fire in the heavens, bleeding ears hear the cry

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

Standing strong together, marching forever on
Fire in the heavens, now that our time has come

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja tonight

We feel the fire burning bright in the night
Where the warrior lives and the warrior dies
Wherever you go, we will be by your side
For the Spirit of Ninja will carry the night

With the ninja forever, tonight!

10. Scars Of Yesterday

Suffer the raging anger creeping below
Trapped in the circle, so helpless
Forces beyond
This is your last chance to die

I hear a thousand voices screaming my name
Dreams of a life forgotten now will be gone
Never to return again

Hide from the light, you feel so hypnotized
Filtered and disguised
Burning forever, try to remember
Sadness in her eyes

So many times now we've been here before
No more illusions behind the open door
Trapped within my fierce desire, resistance is futile
Screaming for your life, nowhere to hide
Tonight we cross the line, your innocence is mine

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
But is it all a waste of time?

Lost in a misery, the fatal demise
Forced to a living that no one can understand
Hiding behind all the lies

A long time in slavery, it cries out in vain
Lurking around the shadows until the end
Fearless in fatal disguise

Wake from the dream, the life you left behind
Time to understand
Lost in the laughter, life ever after
Trials of a broken man

And through this madness a new day will rise
We shall remember the pain she held inside
Fear the pain inside my heart, our sacrifice in vain
Screaming for your life, nowhere to hide
This everlasting strain, driving you insane

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
But is it all a waste of time?

Still lost in the universe, we cry for a new day to come
Break free from our loneliness, the last time
Pray tonight as we try to understand

Falling down, my life fading now to the end
I'm alive forever, my soul will ascend
One last chance of glory in my heart again
Set me free from this craving the one thing I can't have inside of me
Just a memory
Or is it all a waste of time?

11. E.P.M

Music by DragonForce
Lyrics by Frederic Leclerq, Sam Totman, Herman Li
In a lifetime of decay
Sudden cry for yesterday,
When the world will see the end of eternity

Sacrifice before the dawn
Of a child soon to be born
Before the night too many tears we cried

In a long forgotten land
Through the silent raging pain
Of the price to pay that awaits for me
The end of all our destiny

Don't close your eyes tonight
For the lights beyond still shine towards a brighter day
The time has come for us tread blood across the sands
Carry on as the red rivers run

And through the wilderness we feel the pouring rain
In the silence ever searching on through the misery
And all the promises we made and cried in vain
Don't you take the time to realise the master of disguise?

Burning my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story

Far and wide forever on
Stand before the world alone we journey to the other side
Raise your hands to the sky

Through the night and through the day
Don't look back no time to pray
The battle rages on marching on and on

Don't cry for me tonight
For the lights beyond will guide me home tomorrow
The time will come for us the curse is growing strong
Carry on with the rise of the sun

So take me far away it's time to set me free
All my life I have been waiting but I could never see

Raising your hands to the sky
Turning your eyes to the sun
Pray for forgiveness
The power to save has gone for the last time

Burning my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story

Burning my eyes burning forever to wash my sins away
Out of the dark pain is the price
Fly away out of the raging storm
Lost within my memories
Still haunting me
A never ending story
