(Instrumental)


2. Gettin' Dangerous
++++++++++++++++++++
Take what u want, if all's what u need
well, that was a thing of the past.
yours 4 the night & all the next day
but u know all good things never last

A ll the evils u once saw as joy
have finally caught up 2 u.
others misfortunes are lessons we've learned
it's hight time we know what 2 do...

It's gettin' dangerous
the world's going under as we fall
it's gettin' dangerous
it's time 2 decide when our fate calls

Y does the rain cry on our souls
while bloodshed takes over the streets?
y does the night decide not 2 end
when 2morrow is now what we need?

D o u remember a simpler time
when dreamers could follow their dreams?
it's so plain 2 see that we've drifted so far
it's not how it once used 2 be...

It's getting' dangerous
the further we go now the deeper we burn
it's gettin' dangerous
if u don't give a damn the world ceases 2 return.


3. Fool Fool
++++++++++++
Just a dream or a trick of illusion,
hding back from a nightmare.
endless circles, so how could i know
is it true (or) should i care

Fantasy is the name of the game,
brings you passion and pain,
moving pictures runnin' fast and slow
gonna drive you insane.

What about tomorrow,
when the dreams become reality,
the nights full of sorrow,
a game between youand me

Fool, fool,
don't wait for an answer,
fool, fool,
the devil is a dancer
fool, fool,
don't wait for an answer,
fool, fool,
the devil is a dancer

Goin' ground through a tunnel of hate,
endless fear and disaster,
scary dreams from the other side,
from the soul of the master


4. Hole In The Sky
++++++++++++++++++
Deep in the night, the silent screaming is
callin out 2 u
disaster is heading your way, u just don't know.
how could we see the crimson spiral would
penetrate the blue
the heavens above present an afterglow.

Now how could we all take
take 4 granted the great beyond?

How will we survive, oh, how will we carry on?
hole in the sky, don't trust your shadow
hole in the sky, it's only fantasy
hole in the sky, there's nowhere left 2 go
hole in the sky, no chance 4 u & me

Factory waste dissolves in the air
blue skies are turnin' black,
the burn in your eyes are reflections of what
is 2 come.

Some just don't know, but most just don't care
until it is all just 2 late
the ozone is crying 4 mercy from everyone


5. Touch The Rainbow
++++++++++++++++++++
From down below you can see the mountain
raging high through the cloud - burst to the sky

Wind blows cold through your mind and your soul,
can't break free from the fear that's surrounding me

Wanna love you baby,
all night long.
wanna hold you baby,
so strong

Lose control, lose your soul,
and try to touch the rainbow

Lose your soul and get out of your mind
lose control, lose your soul

And try to touch the rainbow
lose your soul, and touch the rainbow

Time goes by as we passed the raindrops,
fire and snow, such a long long way to go

Movin' on in a world of shame,
don't know why but the sandman said
goodbye


6. You And I
++++++++++++
A thousand miles away and a thousand years ago,
there was a place still to remember.
they lived in fear, saw shadows on the wall,
"kill the king", they screamed with anger

We lived in danger, all of you and i,
don't talk to strangers
in the dead of night.
we lived in danger, all of you and i,
don't talk to strangers
in the dead of night

We saw the face of the queen that shined
so bright
her poisoned glory makes you deaf and blind.
some could escape from the reign of rolling, heads,
some would imagine, that they'll be better off dead


7. Silent Angel
+++++++++++++++
Rainy days, cold nights to remember
who will i find to stay forever
a life without you, no dreams will come true,
won't be fooled just like a pretender

A whisper in the garden of eden,
like a sound of love an' peace on earth.
silent angel
i wanna hold you
silent angel
in my fantasy
silent angel
let me love you
silent angel
please stay with me
all alone, with a heart of stone
candlelight never burns so bright
how can it be, that between you and me
is no way out, out of misery


8. Black Moon Pyramid
+++++++++++++++++++++
They came out of nowhere,
from the land of the broken souls,
to build up a tower,
with their flesh and their bones

They sailed across the seven seas,
to break the seal of slavery
from beyond they heard the thunder
from the ship that went under the sea

The moon was shinin' bright
with his darkened purple light
to spread the wings of wonder
we had to find some place to hide

Shadows in the darkness
from a light down in the black,
we're dealing with danger,
will we ever be comin' back again

Ooh ho ho hooh ho ho
hooh ho ho hooh, we ran through the fire
ooh ho ho hooh ho ho
hooh ho ho hooh, to touch the flames
ooh ho ho hooh ho ho
hoon ho ho hooh, we ran through the fire
ooh ho ho hooh ho ho
hooh ho ho hooh, to the black moon pyramid

Silent screams and noisy thoughts
filled the air with danger,
how can we escape from here
without the pain and anger

We crossed the dying fields of war,
lost in the world of (the) evil scores,
to get out of insanity,
we went through the temple of eternity

We sailed across the seven seas
to break the seal of insanity, oh hoo hoooh
we're slaves to the king, slaves to the king
of the black moon

W e sailed away, we sailed away, to eternity
we were lost in the world,      (continue page)

Lost in the world, of misery
we crossed the field, crossed the field,
crossed the field, of the prince of darkness

The moon was shinin' bright,
with his darkened purple light,
to the pyramid of the black moon

We heard from the danger,
of the land of the stranger,
you better be aware, better be aware

Don't trust the shadow, don't trust the
shadow of the black moon pyramid


9. Visions In The Night
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Are u laughing, are u crying
do u know who u are?
if you're living well then y are u dyin'
your soul is sadly left & scarred

Slowly turning, u try 2 leave
before the dawn, u gotta see...

...See the visions in the night
future's brighter there 4 u
see the visions in the night
if you're looking 4 the truth

Are u wanderin', are u searching
4 the meaning of your life?
are u waiting, now are u fighting, everyday?
time just seems 2 past u by.

Empty lies & agony
before tomorrow u gotta see...
...within the visions of the night.


10. Aquarius Dance
++++++++++++++++++
Silence of the night and a moon that shines
so bright, scary moments are fading away

All life, no real future was in sight
but i'm on my way

Burning fever runnin' through my veins
like screaming horses who will have no chance
in the aquarius dance

Breaking of the day and a sun that leads the way
a new horizon's here 2 stay
all 2gether we can see the other side
well i'm on my way
