I Rule The Ruins

There's a tattooed symbol underneath my sleeve
An iron glove over a hand of steel
You can't touch me
Don't touch me

All for one and one for me
Listen well and I'll set you free
You can trust me
For eternity

No promise
Is honest
In a world of change

I rule the ruins with passion and pain
I rule the ruins
Sinner or saint
Fortune or fate

Alive and well in this livin' hell
I survived it all, now it's time to tell
Can you hear me
Do you hear me

Once a tattered soul on bended knees
With one hand to God, I felt the devil's breeze
I begged help me
Won't you rescue me

One promise dishonest
And everything will change

CHORUS

There's a tattooed symbol underneath my sleeve
Iron glove over a hand of steel
I rule the ruins
I rule the ruins

I rule the ruins
With passion and pain
I rule the ruins
Sinner and saint
I rule the ruins

REPEAT:

Hellbound

Starlight
Now it's the time
Now I will try
To realise my desire
To strike back

Tonight
I'm prepared for this time
To kill demons of crime
I will fight
Fight for my right
For many years
I've been under a curse

I swear...I've been under a spell
The time is right
I will flee from this hell
Ooh everywhere I see
Ghosts all around
(I'm hellbound) (I'm hellbound)

Moonlight
I'll take my weapon
Of attack
(And) without fear
Of death I wait

Midnight
I feel ghosts
Are all around
(but) I hold my ground
To survive

Fight, fight, fight
I will fight
Fight for my right
For many years I've been
Under a curse

I feel, I've been under a spell
The time is right
I will flee from this hell
Oh, everywhere I see
Ghosts are all around
I'm hellbound
( I'm spell-bound )

Only You

Only you
Can possess me
I need your love day 'n night

Only you
Can deliver me
I need your love
I can't deny

Only you
Can deceive me
I love you more
Than I can say

Only you
Can complete me
I need your love everyday

Only you
Only you can heal me
I need your love
To find a way

And only you
Can complete me
I need your love everyday, everyday

Only you
Only you
From your love
I can't stay away, oh no

Only you
Only you
I love you more everyday, everyday

Bad Blood

Bad blood, rivers run dry
Thunder comes and the Children cry bad blood
never can change, no one here to blame
bad blood, older than time
followed me down from my fathers tribe
bad blood, making me shake
Running through my veins, bad blood

Too many questions, so many unanswered times
Most times the finger points at me
In my confusion, might slip and cross the line
I'm not to blame for all you see
you can't help me it's in my soul
pray for mercy, nowhere else to go

CHORUS :

In my confession, I swear and cross my heart
I stand before you what I am
gunpowder ready, just waiting for a spark
and those before me understand
please protect me, keep me safe
heaven help me, save me from this fate

CHORUS :

Swimming hard and fast
against the time
lost in a flood
of ancient fire

CHORUS :

So Alone Together

I've been looking 'round and this is what I found
there's not one of us
who wants to be somebody else
we would trade places, even trade faces
but when it comes to the heart
we wanna stay true to ourselves

There's not one of us like the rest of us
there's no two of us alike
and that will never change
all of us know it and all of us show it
but when it's down to the heart
I guess all of us are the same

All of us cry, all of us try to find someone
whose love will last forever
all of us know, all of us are on our own
It's up to us, to make ourselves feel better
all of us so alone together

If it were not for you,
I don't know what I'd do
and I just hope we go to heaven when we're gone
I've heard it's nice up there
you just sort of walk on air
and the best part's knowing
nobody ever has to walk alone

CHORUS :

Fall For Me Again

All our friends been acting strange
Sunshine smiles - even when it rains
And they pretend that they don't see
The trouble with you and me
But they know you're about to leave

And even you have played a part
Of someone who is still true at heart
Do you think that I don't know
Your love for me turned cold
How sad to see you go ...But

I'm hoping that you'll fall in love again
And never look back on what might have been
I pray that we will stay the best of friends
And in my heart I hope that you will fall for me again

But don't say there is no way
The things you loved before haven't changed
Well I could find somebody new
Who wouldn't tear my heart in two
But I'd never get over you ... Oh, No ... So

So I'm hoping that you'll fall in love again
And never look back on what might have been
I pray that we will stay the best of friends
And in my heart I hope that you will fall for me again

Fur Immer

Bleib' Dir treu
niemals auseinandergeh'h
werden zueinandersteh'n
fur immer

Keine Macht
wird uns jemals trennen
werde wie ein Tier drum kampfen
Du lernst mich kennen!

Denn Freunde geh'n mir uber alles-immer-
Ich werd' immer fur Dich sein -fur immer-
Deep inside my heart -fur immer-
v Deep inside my heart -fur immer-
Deep inside my heart -i see you and me

So lange Zeit
sehn' ich Dich -Geborgenheit-
in Freiheit

Mut und Kraft
fuhren mich durch jeden Tag
begleiten uns in tiefster Nacht
-bald geschafft !-

Ich wurd' mein Leben
fur Dich geben -immer-
werden alles ubersteh'n -fur immer-
Deep inside my heart -fur immer-
Deep inside my heart -fur immer-
Deep inside my heart ...

There's a message in this sound
Hay una promessa en el sonido
Fur immer zusammen
werden uns niemals trennen
-uns niemals trennen !-

Fur immer

Metal Tango

My hands are in motion
My wheels do not change
My pain I turn into heat
Inside these flames
When time has no meanin'
Where seasons don't change
I dream with the heart of a thief
And I don't feel no shame

There's an island
In my soul
There's desire
Burnin' deep down, down below

Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango

The sky is cryin'
The tears fall like rain
The wind it gave me the key
To unlock these chains

There's an island
In my soul
There's desire
Burnin' deep down, down below

Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango

There's desire
In my soul
Burnin' deep down, down below

Dance demons
Lose control
This is a metal a metal tango
Dance demons
Don't you know
This is a metal a metal tango
This is a metal...tango

Don't you know
This is a metal tango
This is a metal tango
Don't you know
This is a metal tango

Let's Rock Forever

I remember the day we met
My heart started speeding up
When you walked in the rehearsal room
I couldn't help it, fall in love
It wasn't the way you smiled
That blew my breath away oh no
It wasn't anything you said
It was all in the way you played

Let's rock forever
Take me up to heaven with that black guitar
Let's rock together
Play me that song that'll stir my heart
Let's rock forever, on 'n' on 'n' on
Let rock forever live on

(I like the way you do it)

Hey baby I'm amplified
Let me tell you what's on my mind
Bend the strings inside my heart
Like the guys in Metallica
Knock me out with all your tricks
Cos' I'm in love with your red hot licks
Keep it goin' in overdrive
Be the power that'll keep me alive

Eye On You

I couldn't close my eyes,
I stayed up all night
I thought of promises
you gave me for life
Your words were racing through my head
"Forever together"

I just remembered that you swore
you won't lie
Cause you're in love again
there's nothing to hide
Of all the other ones you've had
Baby you can't fool me

I take no prisoners
I have no demands
But baby let me make you understand

I don't know
what you did last night
Keep your secrets, maybe I'll keep mine
Watch your step
like I told you to
I'm keeping my eye on you
Keeping my eye on you

You got the best of me
I think that's allright
But don't you mess with me
you'll never survive
Cause there's a part of you I feel
That drives me crazy

I've learned to trust myself
and nobody else
It's in the way you look at me
I can tell
You try so hard to make me feel good
Baby, I don't buy it

I take no prisoners
I have no demands
But I don't want a lover second hand

CHORUS :

I take no prisoners
I don't take a chance
I'd pull the trigger
and you'd understand

CHORUS :

All We Are

All we are
All we are, we are
We are all, all we need
All we are
All we are, we are
We are all, all we need

There's beauty in the heart of the beast
Fear behind the eyes of the thief
I know you know we're all incomplete
Let's get together and let's get some relief

CHORUS

Stronger than a mountain of steel
Faster than hell on wheels
We've got we've got all the power we need
Let's build a playground on this old battelfield

CHORUS

Now we're stronger
We no longer want you bringin' us down
We've got the magic
So we're gonna spread the magic around yeah!

Now we're stronger
We no longer want you pushin' us

CHORUS

All we are
We are all, all we need
REPEAT

Enough For You

Every time you call
you can't imagine what it's like
I'm getting chills
I hear you're voice each time

And every time we talk
I get shivers down my spine
I can't deny
you're always on my mind

I never had this feeling
never so strong before
with every day I want you more
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
oh God I wish I would know

What can take me into your heart
what can I do
would you help me from falling apart
Is my love enough for you ?! Enough for you !

Everywhere I go
I wish you would pass me by
I keep on waiting for you anytime

And every night I pray
you would think of me sometimes
hope I could move your heart
your soul your mind ......

Would it really matter
If I knew you better
would you know which way to go
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
It's you or no one in this world !

What can take me into your heart
what can I do
would you help me from falling apart
Is my love enough for you, enough for you

I never had this feeling
never so strong before
with every day I want you more
I can't stop believing
I can't stop dreaming
oh God, I wish I would know

CHORUS :

I Am What I Am

Some choose to remember
Some choose to forget
Some fall to pieces
When they lose their heads

I choose to get lucky
Don't choose to regret
I'll take my chances
Only I know best

When it all gets down to me
When it all gets down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And no one's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am What I Am
And no one's gonna break me down again

I hate to be lonely
I can't pretend
Don't need no phonies
Tryin' to be my friends

Don't care 'bout danger
I can take the fall
Ev'ryone's a stranger
Till just one stands tall

And it all comes down to me
When it all comes down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
Nothin's gonna break me down again

I can hear the devil callin', callin'
I can hear him callin' me
But I don't do nothin'
I don't believe

When it all comes down to me
When it all gets down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And no one's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
And nothin's gonna break me down again
No, nothin's gonna break me down - again

Whinever I Think Of You

I've done a lot of thinking
Since you went away
My mind's made up now
I'm gonna be okay

I made some changes
Got a new job last week
Rented a three-room
Up on Bleeker Street

I'm taking care
Of my body and soul
There's just one little thing
Beyond my control

Whenever I think of you
The thoughts blow me away
Whenever I think of you
I still love you till this day
Whenever I think of you
I wanna lose my mind
Cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
I go crazy
Whenever I think of you

I've done some talking
With a friend I just met
He knows that you're not
Easy to forget

And he keeps telling me
He'll help me survive
But every time he touches me
Your memory comes alive

Whenever I think of you
The thoughts blow me away
Whenever I think of you
I still love you till this day
Whenever I think of you
I wanna lose my mind
Cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
I go crazy
Whenever I think of you

Whenever I think of you
I wonder if you think of me too
I hope you do

Whenever I think of you
I wonder if you found somebody else
I hope it isn't true

Whenever I think of you
The thoughts blow me away
Whenever I think of you
I still love you till this day
Whenever I think of you
I wanna lose my mind
Cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
I go crazy
Whenever I think of you

Whenever I think of you
The thoughts blow me away
Whenever I think of you
I still love you till this day
Whenever I think of you
I wanna lose my mind
Cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you
Cause I go crazy
Whenever I think of you

I go crazy
Whenever I think of you

Children Of The Night

Some are born to be
Those of us who lead
You hope they're true and fair
The ones who really care
And some are born to fight
Everything that's right
You see 'em everywhere

Some are born to wealth
Earned by someone else
And when their moment comes
They take it and they run
Some are born to be
Lonely refugees
Their heart must weigh a ton

Children of the night
Their dreams are filled with fright
They close their eyes and
Pray to God that help is on the way
Heaven help us all
Be a guidin' light
To the children of the night

You know how it feels
Some wounds never heal
Scars of yesterday
Still won't fade away
But I believe that we
Could join our hands and be
The ones to set them free

CHORUS:

Some are born to be
Those of us who leave
Their heart must weigh a ton

Burning The Witches

When the day is over
The devil is near
The people who know it
Are full of fear

When the devil is coming
A virgin will die
A soldier of the darkness
Will take her life

The demon takes the body
Of the bloodless gal
Outside she's looking pretty
Inside a beast of hell

That's what you are callin'
A hellcat or a witch
And only if she's burning
The demon will die

Burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The demon dies by fire

The witches are hunting
Your soul and your blood
And if you can't escape
They take all that you've got

A soul of the virgin
Can find no peace
Till the fire is killing
The witch - they can be free

Burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries by fire!

By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning the witches
The demon dies
By burning the witches
The evil cries
By burning...
