01. Slaves Of Twilight (Intro)

[Instrumental]

02. Pay The Price

Yeah
Oh yeah

Struck down, time is late, thought we could rule the Earth
Can't get away of all those promises
Moving through the holy land we're lost in the curse
No matter how we could get out of this

Shots in the dark ringing in my head
Fear of the night's running through my veins
The lords of twilight disturbing my brain
Another night of slavery will drive me insane

They come from behind
Stealing your mind
Tearing your soul apart
There's no place to hide
And you realize
They'll rip out your heart

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price
For
Love

On and on we sailed away we're running through the night
Heading for the end straight into nowhere
Destination paralyzed shock waves in the air
Can't get along we're running in despair

They come from behind
Stealing your mind
Tearing your soul apart
There's no place to hide
And you realize
They'll rip out your heart

We pay the price for love
We pay the price for love
We pay the price for love
We pay the price
For love
Price for love

They come from behind
Stealing your mind
Go!

They come from behind
Stealing your mind
Tearing your soul apart
There's no place to hide
And you realize
They'll rip out your heart

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price for love
(Oh oh oh oh)
We pay the price (Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Price for love
Oh love

Shots in the dark
Ringing in my head
Fear of the night's running through my veins
The price of love
Yeah
Pay the price

03. Carousel

We saw the wonder world, of all the wild wild horses
Flying around, like an eagle in the sky
But we had been told, of the danger of burning roses
Longing for you, and they're never asking why

Don't touch the flame
Run through the fire
Calling your name
We're flying higher... to the edge of the world

Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me
Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me

Carrousel

Far out in the distance, there was a place we once called home
Lost forever, filled with emptiness and moan
The rising force of evil, broke the chains of destination
Hard to believe, but there will be no recreation

Don't touch the flame
Run through the fire
Calling your name
We're flying higher

Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me
Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me

Yeah
Yeah

Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me
Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me
Carrousel
Of broken dreams
Turning around in a circle
Carrousel
You know what it means
Making a fool out of me (carrousel)

Make a fool out of me (carrousel)
Carrousel
Make a fool out of me (carrousel)
You know what it means (carrousel)

Don't touch the flame (carrousel)
Run through the fire
Calling your name
We're flying higher (carrousel)

Carrousel
Carrousel yeah (carrousel)
Make a fool out of me
(Don't make a fool of me)

04. Ashes From The Oath

Silent night, we saw the rainbow in the sky
Filled with hope, ready to cry
Roaring thunder, and the moon was passing by
Crack in the wall, light in the sky

Early morning, and the strangers sailed away
We don't want another day
We looked for truth, for the reasons of our fate
All reply we got was hate yeah yeah

The black light's calling, and the moon eclipsed the sun
Endless dreams nowhere to run
We tried to get out, we're lost under the gun
In the chance waiting for dawn

Burning candles, the smoke filled up the air
We called the fire, to help us there
Kings and queens, the illusions of our dreams
Surrounded by the fear, that the end is coming near

All we need is the answer (the answer answer)
From the lost world of home (home home home...)
And we pray till the morning
On the ashes from the oath
The ashes from the oath

Early morning, the strangers sailed away
We don't want another day
We looked for truth, for the reasons of our fate
The only reply we got was hate

All we need is the answer (the answer answer)
From the lost world of home (home home home...)
And we pray till the morning
On the ashes from the oath
Yeah
And we search for tomorrow (tomorrow tomorrow)
For our lives and our sins (sins sins sins...)
And our praying still goes on and on
On the ashes from the oath
The ashes from the oath

05. Ride The Rainbow

We're riding through the times, danger in the air
Lock up the wolves, don't trust those promises
The tower's passing by, the devil's in despair
Break down the walls, somewhere or nowhere

We're riding the wind
We're riding through eternity
We're living in sin
They opened the gates for you and me
For you and me

(Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
We touch the sky (Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
We don't ask why

Northern lights are shining and, we are left on our own
We'd broke the crystal ball, with blood, fire and stone
The cross of heaven and hell, was burning, lost and gone
Tearing the souls apart, and never seen again

We're riding the wind
We're riding through eternity
We're living in sin
They opened the gates for you and me
For you and me

(Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
We touch the sky (Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
And don't ask why

(Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
We touch the sky (Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow yeah (Oh oh oh oh)

We're riding through the times, danger in the air (Oh oh oh oh)
The tower's passing by, the devil's in despair (Oh oh oh oh)
Somewhere oh yeah (Oh oh oh oh)
We ride the rainbow (Oh oh oh oh)
And touch the sky
We ride the rainbow
We ride the rainbow yeah
We fly the rainbow
On and on
On and on
We ride

06. The Gates Of The Seven Seals

Out there in the distance, the lightning strikes the Earth
Full moon is rising, the thunder hits the world
We're so close to the edge of our life
Running high and low, trying to survive
Yeah yeah
Trying to survive

We're running 'round in circles, to find out of the cave
Another day, and this will be our grave
We heard the tolling, of the backdoor gates of hell
Trying to search, for the key from the spell

The ending is near
There's not enough time, time to survive
We're lost, lost in a world
Building it's own sacrifice
There was no place to hide

Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world

The thunder, the smash, the cracks between the walls
The black moon pyramid once filled with magic, now it's gone
Can we remember, the wizard of eternity
Fighting the evil, break out to be free

The ending is near
There's not enough time, time to survive
We're lost, lost in a world
Building it's own sacrifice
There was no place to hide

Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world
To be free

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, they cry for you and me
Beyond the gates of the seven seals
Beyond the gates, another world
To be free

Another world to be free
Of the seven seals
Oh oh
To be free
Beyond the gates yeah
Ooooh
Yeah yeah
Oh

07. Oceans Of Time

I see you turning, turning away
And we're ready to leave, to the bridges of sin yeah

Seven wonders, we are ready to fly
Like an eagle, we're touching the sky

We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Passed the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time

As the sun fades to dark light we knew
There was no way to return
All the stars were passing by, we're riding through the sky
On our endless journey through space

Seven wonders, we are ready to fly
Like an eagle, we are touching the sky

We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Passed the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time

The dust turned to stone, and the black moon touched the dawn
As we tried to get out, of this world of burning fear ooooooh

Seven wonders, and we're ready to fly
Like an eagle, we're touching the sky

We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Passed the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time

We're sailing on
The oceans of time
And never look back oh
We're sailing on
On time

I see you turn
And sailing away
(We'll never go back there)
We're sailing on
The oceans of time

We're sailing on
The oceans of time
Oceans of time
Don't turn away
Don't turn a-don't turn away

Don't turn away
The oceans of time

We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
Oceans of time
The oceans of time
Don't turn away

08. Prelude To The Moon (Opus 3 Menuetto Prelugio)

[Instrumental]

09. Living On The Wildside

It was early in the morning, the sun rises in the sky
The place you'd filled is empty, I don't understand why
The memories are coming, all slowly on my mind
We searched for hope and glory, for the things we couldn't find

Remember the feelings we had all in the past
They're gone forever, didn't know that it won't last

Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
We didn't know it wouldn't last

Now that you're gone away, the fireplace's so cold
And I don't remember, the stories that have been told
And there's no turning back, from the locked doors of our hearts
We're stone cold crazy, our love is been apart

Remember the feelings we had all in the past
They're gone forever, didn't know it wouldn't last

Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
We didn't know it wouldn't last

Yeah

Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side yeah
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
On the ashes of love
Living in the wild side
We didn't know it wouldn't last

Living on the wild side

Living on the wild side
Oh yeah
Living on the

10. Holy Creatures

The evil wolfs in the dark are howling again
I wish that I could sleep every now and then
The moon is shining in, in my face so bright
In this never ending storyteller's night

It was not worth to remember
Left all alone in the cold
We never give up, no surrender
But our souls have been sold

Holy creatures
Coming out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Holy creatures
Riding the spark
Hiding in unholy light
Holy creatures
Coming out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Holy creatures
Riding the spark
Hiding in unholy light yeah

The hunting in my darkest hour still goes on and on
Evil faces smiling bright appearing from dusk until dawn
The earls of darkness bringing torture slaughter and pain
I tried to stay awake but that was in vain

It was not worth to remember
Left all alone in the cold
We never give up, no surrender
But our souls have been sold

Holy creatures
Coming out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Holy creatures
Riding the spark
Hiding in unholy light
Holy creatures
Coming out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Holy creatures
Riding the spark
Living in unholy light yeah

Oh

Holy creatures
Out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Riding the spark in unholy light
The creature
It was in the dark
Unholy again
Holy creatures
Holy creatures
They're out of the dark
Twisting around in the night
Hiding in unholy night
Holy creatures
We never give up, never surrender
But our souls have been sold
Never give up in the night
Holy creatures
Holy creatures
Holy creatures
(Holy creatures)
(Holy creatures)
(Out of the dark)
(Twisting around in the night)
