THE CHANCE

We're living in a constant fight
Too much pressure everywhere
And all around

Don't let it put you down
Hold on tight
Climb to your dreams

Don't you depend on someone else
Think for yourself and win the race

The chance you got
Comes never twice
Do your best, and do it right

Time will come
But you don't hide
You are on your way

You're let by god
But you're not a pawn
Should live your life
Don't care 'bout any scorn

Try to be as smart as you can be
I know you own so much ability

The chance you got
Comes never twice
Do your best, and do it right

Time will come
But you don't hide
You are on your way​

THE DARK RIDE

All board step right this way
The dark ride is leaving soon
Just sign your name on the dotted line
All I want is just your soul
Tighten your belt and lets go!

Standing in line to get to the fairground
Heading to the wicked side
One way ticket, there is no returning
Leave your soul at the gates

Out of doubt, no hope
Satan feeds our madness
Insanity confirms where we stand

Spit the red vile breath and
Wrath is our gift that
Leads direct to Armageddon

Refren:
Take a place - on the dark ride
Slowly creeping up - quickly coming down
Take a spin on the dark ride
May too far from the other side

Step inside and take this final journey
Your fantasies will come true
Inclination without liberation
Life's carousel is catching you

Even through the darkest phase
Be it thick or thin
I'm your pain when you can't feel

Druven to our final fate
Jump out of this game
Can we ever stop this ride to hell

Refren

Is there any wonder?
Why we came about
Was it for love?
Or to let sin abound

Isn't it a wonder, awake from blood thick dreams
Remove all the stones from our hearts, we must all believe

Ohhh, will we find a way to the other side, heading for a light
Ooh who is holding the key, why can't we see - the dark ride

I force the engine of your deadly sins
Even through the darkest phase, be it thick or thin
I'm your pain when you can't feel
I know too well you'll follow me, you follow me down

THE DEPARTED

Helloween "The Departed"

There I stood with the sun in my eyes
Dust on my face
And mouth parched and dry
Memories are racing
Flashing scenes through my mind
I know what's ahead
Today would be a good day to die

Once I thought I had a golden heart
Once I thought my dreams would never shatter
Now I stand here
Jaded and cold
Epitaph being carved on my tombstone

I would die for you - would you die with me?
No, you can't deny
Would you catch the bullet that was meant for me?
Blaze across the sky

Sun is going down
And there's no tomorrow
Sun is going down
Going down on me
Sun is going down
No more time to borrow
Dance with the devil
Sun is going down
For the lonely hearted
Sun is going down
In a blink of an eye
Sun is going down
On the departed
Laugh at the devil

I would die for you - would you die with me?
Caught in a fight
I was drawn again
I never thought I'd be betrayed
By my best friend
He lost his life as he went for mine
If this is the end
I want to die with you

Would you catch the bullet that was meant for me?
Blaze across the sky

Sun is going down
Going down on me
Sun is going down
No more time to borrow
Dance with the devil
Sun is going down
For the lonely hearted
Sun is going down
In a blink of an eye
Sun is going down
On the departed
Laugh at the devil

I would die for you - would you die with me?
No, you can't deny
Would you catch the bullet that was meant for me?
Blaze across the sky

Sun is going down
Going down on me
Sun is going down
No more time to borrow
Dance with the devil
Sun is going down
For the lonely hearted
Sun is going down
In a blink of an eye
Sun is going down
On the departed
Laugh at the devil

Sun is going down
No more time to borrow
Sun is going down
Sun is going down
Sun is going down
...

I would die for you - would you die with me?
Would you catch the bullet that was meant for me?​

THE GAME IS ON

Have you seen this little toy
When you're down it gives you joy
You escape reality delve into it's TV screen

For the rich and for the poor
For the even more secure
Doesn't matter where you are
Where you go or where you've been

Well, there's still no guarantee
For your virgin mind you see
Just go on and play the game
You will surely go insane

The game is on
And you have gone
Gone to a world on it's display
And the game is fun
But when it has won
All you ever hear is what it says

There's a great amount of fumes
Coming out from somebody's room
The fireman got there
Making their way up the stairs

Find a man in a chair
But it doesn't seem he's there
With a grey box in his hands
He has gone to another land

The game is on
And you have gone
Gone to a world on it's display
And the game is fun
But when it has won
All you ever hear is what it says

You have played much too long
Now your senses get things wrong
All your walls come crashing down
Now it's time for you to frown

How d'you like this heavy load?
Gess your brain will soon explode
You never had this ugly feel
Donw to die emergency

The game is on
And you have gone
Gone to a world on it's display
And the game is fun
But when it has won
All you ever hear is what it says​

THE INVISIBLE MAN

I am the one who wants to show...you a secret of your cheating world
Wherever I will go - no one can see me 'cause I'm the invisible man
I'm a creature with one goal: rise up to heaven when the time has come
I have no body but a soul... Gods law is written on my way, forever

Time by time I think it's over
The malediction I have got when the world was young
I've been captured in the name of God to save people, but who cares?
Since a thousand years until the holy land will come

Here I am the invisible man
A lost fallen angel helping mankind where I can
My memories are there to save your world
For you I'm the invisible man

There's the destiny you don't know
I'm a guardian angel and wherever you'll go
You fight through your life not alone
You can't hear me, nor see me but trust the holy flow

Here I am the invisible man
A lost fallen angel helping mankind where I can
My memories are there to save your world
For you I'm the invisible man...​

THE KING FOR A 1000 YEARS

Forgotten in his reich of shadows
Banned forever, one thought
The Lord of evil was given name and place
Of the seventh sea, shelter of the seventh key
Who was betraying us? I guess you know
There would be more than one name to name
Now he, whose name is many, searches for the one...
The one strong enough to survive as his terrestial hand
enticement and promise will crown a king
A puppet on a string - for a 1000 years,
...so they sing...

Wouldn't it be nice
To plunder with your eyes
Whatever there's for you to see
Is yours to be
Let me be there
Just tell me you don't care
Just say you pay me after life
However high the price

I know your secrets
I know it all

I know your secrets
I see the hidden without light
I am your sickness
Biting you right behind your eyes
Don't try to kill me
I cannot die, a death you know
You and I will be
Heaven above and hell below

Brother, believe me
Father, conceive me
Perceive me

Time will be a turning wheel
We shove or retard
Time will be a toy
Time we will enjoy
Say you want to live forever
Minus one day
Say you will obey and I

I will show - I will show
I will show your Reich of gold
And I will show - I will show
I will show you friend and foe

Wouldn't it be nice
To reign and to decide
Whatever there's attracting you
Will give its due to you
Let me be there
Just say you want to share
A power no one will withstand
Just be my human hand

I know your secrets
You want it all

I will show - I will show
I will show you Reich of gold
And I will show - I will show
I will show you friend and foe

Solo: Sascha/Sascha/Weiki/Sascha/Weiki/Markus

[Women's choir *]
[Not included in the booklet *]
Don't release us now he sees us
No illusions, executions
The damnation, the annihilation
The non-stopping celebration

Alienation, elimination, chaos, no exoneration
No believers, all deceivers, no illusion, executions

Melody: Sascha

We are King For A 1000 Years
We are king of a million tears
We're the ones who bring desire
Binding their greed and fears
We are king of fallen men
We are keepers of the damned
Turning hope into obsession
We are the king
We are The King For A 1000 Years

Ages of fire - Aeon of darkness, fear and hate
Wake up my creatures
Stand up you bringers of man's fate
No one can kill us
We cannot die, a death one knows
Mankind is sleeping
My victory near, their end so close

I know their secrets
I know it all

Solo: Both/Sascha/Weiki

Goodbye sorrows
Borrow me your hand to turn the key
Release me - Believe me
Goddbye sorrows
Never more you have to fear futurity
Goodbye sorrows
Borrow me your hand to turn the key
Conceive me

Time will be a turning wheel
We shove or retard
Time will be a toy
Time we will enjoy
Say you want to live forever
Minus one day
Say you will obey and I

I will show - I will show
I will show your Reich of gold
And I will show - I will show
I will show you friend and foe

We are King For A 1000 Years
We are king of a million tears
We're the ones who bring desire
Binding their greed and fears
We are king of fallen men
We are keepers of the damned
Turning hope into obsession
We are the king
We are The King For A 1000 Years​

THE SAGE, THE FOOL, THE SINNER

A tramp found dead, in the street, just made the news
Forensics report read 'drug abuse'
Found a warehouse slip in his sleeve
Marine corps major down-at-heel

They got to the place, unlocked the shed
Soon left awestruck, stunned, amazed
Among stuff and things lay pledges and bonds
Up to a few Mil in the end

The sage the fool the sinner
And what goes for you, one can't ever say
The sage the fool the sinner
One can't foretell fate, no way, no way

Sassy lady puts on her fav heels
Mirror checked, all done - snow white appeal
Adjust the dress, ready to leave
Grab some cash, cab?s outside, wipe off a tear

On her way out, she turns once more
To wave her man good - bye
While in his sleep, he recalls thirty years - due to end that night.​

THE SAINTS

Gimme gimme sell your souls
I skin and strip you bold(ly)
My revenue ain't yours
All means my way, I'm mighty

I clutch what's mine, yours sevenfold
I leave you in the cold
Got all my schemes in place
You stifle in my maze

All you shysters
Seek shelter on the last day
While you laugh loud, disclaiming
As your dire end will come/dawn on you

Ah you..!
Possessed, in your mask, and a dirty heart
Unrest in ye must've been the devil in all of us

The saints are marching again
And harvest souls
Taking every single one

The saints march again
And harmony
Is here, ye can go testify

Don?t you dream you?re ever safe
I ll get you in your grave
Go molest your heirs with my
sleight of hand attorneys - I

Profit at your dear expense
Cash in, perform my prance
Relinquish and lose what you
toiled for, anyway​

THE SHADE IN THE SHADOWS

You?re reaching out in the dead of night
Searching for my hand
Your know, I?m there in the waste of shadows
I?m your pain and friend

I hear your silent cries
I?m the shade in the shadow
I know your secret lies
I?m the shade in the shadow

I ban the light and I leave you blind
If you try your eyes
I am enemy or a trustee fellow
In your wailin' mind

I hear your silent cries
I?m the shade in the shadow
I know your secret lies
I?m the shade in the shadow
The shade in the shadows of you

There I cry for you in the shadows
As I always do in the shadows
You may outs me there in the shadows
But I?m always there in the shadows, in the shadows

I hear your silent cries
I?m the shade in the shadow
I know your secret lies
I?m the shade in the shadow

I hide behind your shame
I?m the shade in the shadow
Cryin' out loud your name
I?m the shade in the shadow

There I cry for you in the shadows
As I always do in the shadows, in the shadows​

THE SMILE OF THE SUN

No more feel, no more heal
No more light meets my eyes
Is it night, is it day
I'm alone, paralyzed

Everybody is waiting for the one
Everyone will freeze to death alone

The smile of the sun
Was stolen - someone
Has taken away
The heart of all day
The smile of the sun
Is gone and no one
But you drives away
The pain of the grey
Is anybody out there
Somebody help me

Got to breathe, got to move
Got to get back my life
Here's no hope, here's no joy
In this world full of strife
Gone away, gone astray
All I once believed in
It's my soul, it's my heart
It beats slower and dies

Everybody is waiting for the one
Everyone will freeze to death alone

The smile of the sun
Was stolen - someone
Has taken away
The heart of all day
The smile of the sun
Is gone and no one
But you drives away
The pain of the grey
Is anybody out there waiting
Anybody out there for me
The smile of the sun
Was stolen
Somebody help me

The smile of the sun
Is gone and no one
But you drives away
The pain of the grey

The smile of the sun
Was stolen - someone
Has taken away
The heart of all day
The smile of the sun
Is gone and no one
But you drives away
The pain of the grey
Is anybody out there waiting
Anybody out there for me
Is anybody out there searching
Anybody out there, call me
The smile of the sun
Was stolen
Somebody help me​
