1. MAN AND MACHINE
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++++++
ALERT - ALERT - ALERT
GENERAL ALERT IN SECTION NINE
UNACCEPTABLE HUMAN SPECIMENS HAVE ENTERED THE AREA
DRONES TO BATTLE STATIONS - DRONES TO BATTLE STATIONS
DO YOU COMPLY - DO YOU COMPLY
COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN - COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN
Man and machine - the evil of a dream
Its a necessary cut of the production zone
Man and machine - its a dissident team
And its gonna be all over when a fuse is blown
We humans fight against the cyber trash
Machines are loaded high
Computerized - the tide we have to turn
Robotic clash on section nine
Were not gonna slave away
Machines are not the law
And were gonna praise the day
When humans take it all
CHORUS
Rise up and fight inside the standby-zone
The sentinels electrified
Man to man against the fatal drones
We escalate to DEFCON FIVE
BRIDGE
CHORUS
2. PRIVATE EYE
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++
Im always watching you - my secret eye
No chance to hide away - Im not that blind
No matter what you do - its watching you
Ill be your second mind - controlling you
So dont forget - youre not alone
I will command you - one and all
cause Im your private eye
Your private eye
cause Im your private eye
Your private eye
Electro magnify - the metal eye
Corruptions rectified - a legal crime
Invading privacy - with hidden force
Imprinted on the screen - and no remorse
BRIDGE
CHORUS
I will be everywhere - eye in the sky
All actions will be saved - no matter why
I will manipulate - defy and lie
Recordings will go on - until you die
BRIDGE
CHORUS
3. THE DAWN OF THE GODS
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Tons of steel - its how we feel
Its resurrection
Million ways to win the race
We always tease you
Boiling sound - solid ground
Is what we stand for
All the sins will take you in
We always please you
Hail the metal
Law for one and all
Hail the metal
Its the dawn of the gods
Were always fighting for the holy man
Dawn of the gods - raising high and high
Its the dawn of the gods
Were always fighting for the holy man
Dawn of the gods - breaking up the sky
Blazing fire - we walk the wire
The right direction
Crazy days is how it pays
Well never lose you
So keep in mind - eruptive signs
Of insurrection
Were here to serve what you deserve
Well never fool you
BRIDGE
CHORUS
The fear and the terror of mutant mercenary filth
Deceivers of truth - betrayers of faith
Screaming crimson skies bursting forth their energies
Searing scorching flames - the dawning of the gods
BRIDGE
CHORUS
4. SILENT CRY
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann/Gianola - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
+++++++++++++
Dancing in the daylight - all just been so fine
And heartbeats keep on going - all the time
Dont you hear the calling - dont you see the falling
All the cries
Cant you get the warning - how the pain is dawning
See the signs
When eyes dont see - and hands dont touch
Its all been a pack of lies
When hearts dont feel - its all too much
Its just the sound of a silent cry
Just the sound of a silent cry
Crying in the moonlight - darkness closing in
I fear for the heartbeats - wondering
If we come together - is it so much better
I dont know
Why are we not trying - ending all the crying
Giving hope
BRIDGE
CHORUS
5. LIKE A LION
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++
I had a dream today - its telling me
Its time to leave the older days
This life goes on for you and me
Gonna pay the price
No matter how - no matter what I do
So now Ill decide
Just take me to a better world
The only way I know
Sometimes I think
Thats not enough
No matter how - Im gonna die like a lion
I wanna cry - I wanna cry like a lion
I see the picture now - on different days
There is no need for other ways
No more a fool - Ive got the tools
For the here and now
Another face - another fearless heart
To rise from the crowd
BRIDGE
CHORUS
6. BLACK HEART
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++
Black is the colour - icy and cold
It is the power - forever wrong
All the burning inside - all the other rotten ways
Blinded minds - all the time - it happens all again
You know we all need some friends
To save this broken world
The freedom we will defend
Dont need a devil - dont need a devil inside
Black heart - dark mind
The seeds of evil will grow in time
Black heart - dark mind
Hail the devil and bless the crime
Over and over - the stories been told
Whole generations - have been sold
All the wrong directions - paid with innocence and fear
Danger times - twisted crimes - revenge is always near
BRIDGE
CHORUS
Hail - hail,.....
CHORUS
7. NETWORK NIGHTMARE
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++++++++
Youre gonna drown out
While youre within the net
A megatronic murder
Upon the world wide web
My mind is read all memory
Your access is denied
A massive infestation
Infected RAM inside
I smile - while Im infecting your veins
My style - Im Dr. No Im delivering the blow
Im your network nightmare
Im your network nightmare
Ill powersurge the virus
Directly to your brains
A gigabotic meltdown
Manic - cold - insane
I activate the relay
The master of the code
Expect hard driven lessons
All systems overload
BRIDGE
CHORUS
8. ANIMAL INSTINCT
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann/Wienhold - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++++++
I dont wanna be another retro-man
I dont wanna be no part of your plans
I dont wanna be no diamond king
I just wanna pull the detonation pin
I wont give up a life of sin
Youll never tame the beast within
You cant abuse what Ive got in here
My animal instinct is what you fear
And I howl - and I prowl
I am a raptor in time
And I howl - and I prowl
I am unbroken - creature of the wild
Ive got an animal instinct
Ive got an animal instinct
I dont wanna lead nor even dominate
Not a top-dog leader that only devastates
You know Im free and I stand so proud
My animal anger - I shout it aloud
BRIDGE
CHORUS
Animal - animal - animal - animal - instinct
Animal - animal - animal - animal instinct
CHORUS
9. DANCING WITH AN ANGEL
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Take my hand before I go
Well never be alone
Look at all the lucky days
And places we have gone
Let me say a single word
A million other ways
But all I wanna see is now
A smile upon your face
Like Im dancing - dancing with an angel
Like Im dancing - never danced before
Like Im dancing - dancing with an angel
Like Im dancing - a dream Im dancing on
Gave my heart into your hands
We are evermore
How can I repay you now
For all the years and more
All I know so deep inside
We will never fade
So let me take you by the hand
And lead you to the dance
CHORUS
Still Im dancing through a dream with an angel
I dont wanna lose a part of your heart
Still you give me all the worlds I believe in
And I know that we will never part
CHORUS
10. HARD TO BE HONEST
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann/Gianola - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
+++++++++++++++++++++
I played the game - I broke the rules
The truth is always cruel
Its not for me to win or lose
This one will be on you
Sometimes its hard to be tough
And play this way so rough
I give it straight - you know why
I want it all - Ill take it all
I dont know why - dont wanna hide
Dont want forever lie
Now its time for all of us
So lets break free
No matter what you say
You know its hard to be honest
Its hard not to lie
You know its hard to be honest
Its hard not to lie
All hail the truth and damn the lies
Theres so much we can do
Now its on you to deal the cards
The joker breaks the rules
So take a look at what you see
The mirror never lies
The time has come to say farewell
So leave it all behind you all
BRIDGE
CHORUS
No matter how - you found it out
Its time to give the truth
Ive seen it all - in black or white
The hardest thing to do
BRIDGE
CHORUS
11. UNKNOWN TRAVELER
(Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann/Gianola - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann)
++++++++++++++++++++
Ive passed the lonely gates of Babylon
Ive touched the ancient pyramids
Ive seen the golden face of Taj Mahal
Ive felt the sea of Atlantis
Ive counted bricks along the China Wall
Ive rode the Slopes Of Kathmandu
Ive tasted all the rocks of Everest
To the mountains of the moon
Ive seen it all
Through time and matter
No more retreat and no more defeat
So hear the call
The final battle
Im under attack - I want to come back
I am the unknown traveler - always on the move
I am the unknown traveler
I am the unknown traveler - always on the move
I am the unknown traveler
Ive joined the table back in Camelot
Looked for the wood for Merlins wand
Ive traveled places Ive been everywhere
Ive traveled times so on and on
BRIDGE
CHORUS
Back
