1. Any Means Necessary

I won't pull the trigger, just to see you die 
No remitee to make me come aliva 
I'm ticking like a time bomb, no fuse just guts and gore 
Initiate the burning of the core 

I count down the zero, pull the trigger, no parole 
No mercy, no mercy, no mercy on your soul 

Kill by any means necessary 
Win by any means necessary 
Live by any means necessary 
Die by any means necessary 

I am not judgmental, a sinner not a saint 
cause either you're my best friend or you ani't 
Come gather here around me, feel my breath under your skin 
I'm deadly only when i'm getting caught 

I count down the zero, i'm a soldier without soul 
No mercy, no mercy, no mercy on your soul 

Kill by any means necessary 
Win by any means necessary 
Live by any means necessary 
Die by any means necessary 

I am born to kill, judge and condemn 
I am born to win, slay and maim 'em 
I am born to live, fight for glory 
I am born to die 

Kill... win... live... die... 

Kill by any means necessary 
Win by any means necessary 
Live by any means necessary 
Die by any means necessary 

I am born to kill, judge and condemn 
I am born to win, slay and maim 'em 
I am born to live, fight for glory 
I am born to die, memento mori 

I am born to kill, judge and condemn 
I am born to win, slay and maim 'em 
I am born to live, fight for glory 
I am born to die, memento mori

2. Life Is Now

6 am, We still rush along 
The open road and we're feeling strong 
Another town - HEY! - just lay it down, down to the ground 
Only our way, or the highway straight to hell 

Never give upp, never give in 
Always ride out the storms, so fight 
Never give upp, never give in 
It's your life, make it right 

Our life is not a fashion - Life is now 
Pedal to the metal - life is now 
Our life is based on passion 
And we live our life the way we want 

Hit the lights, time to bring it on 
Ten thousand fist, they can not be wrong 
We've come to slam - HEY! - the hammerdown, never lose the game 
Please come inside, do not be afraid, ain't no requiem 

Never give upp, never give in 
Only one way so shout and scream 
Never give upp, never give in 
Please take hold on your dream 

Our life is not a fashion - Life is now 
Pedal to the metal - life is now 
Our life is based on passion 
And we live our life the way we want 

Solo: Pontus 

Our life is not a fashion 
Pedal to the metal 
Our life is based on passion 
And we live our life the way we want 

Our life is not a fashion - Life is now 
Pedal to the metal - life is now 
Our life is based on passion 
And we live our life the way we want 

Never give up, oooh, never give in 
This is your life, a thing you can't set aside

3. Punish And Enslave

It's midnight, the clock strikes twelve 
When the beasts come out and play 
The headlines made it clear 
Judgement day is near 

They're crawling down the streat 
Sinking their razor teeth 
They're knocking on evry door 
Now the steel begins to glow 

They're vaporizing the earth, no mercy 
Into the battle they thrust 
With power and lust 

Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave 
Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave 

There's something, a single spark 
Out there in the dark 
The metal is shining bright 
Brings back hope and light 

Bumber-to-bumber he reins the wasteland 
Turning their steel into dust, he will never rust 

Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave 
Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave 

Solo: pontus 

All hail the chosen one - Fight proud, don't touch the sun 
Come join our steel parade - Togheter in the last crusade 
All drop the hammers down - Burn out, reclaim the crown 
Speed deamons never turn - at speed of light we ride, running flat-out let's crach and burn 

They're vaporizing the earth, no mercy 
Into the battle they thrust 
Bumber-to-bumber he reins the wasteland 
Turning their steel into dust, he will never rust 

Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave 
Oh-oh-oh... 
Punish and Enslave

4. Legion

The war still remains 
No Kingdom on earth 
There's only pure evil, infidderence to birth 

In the tombs of the dead 
One man breeds alone 
The unearthly warfare shadows the throne 

Three temptations written down 
The Lust of flesh, lust of the eye 
Finally the pride of life 

The Demon Twelve, the hell hounds 
My name is Legion, for we are many spirits inside of one 
To build a land of chaos, brought forth from the Abyss 
My name is Legion, and we bring destruction and death 

Possessing his soul 
The curse of the damned 
A tormented victim, to the bottom he's slammed 

One man stands alone 
Trapped, under a spell 
Encounter your demons, send them to Hell 

No temptations left to fend 
Sanctified, Anti Christ 
Casting shadows towards the cross 

The Demon Twelve, the hell hounds 
My name is Legion, for we are many spirits inside of one 
To build a land of chaos, brought forth from the Abyss 
My name is Legion, and we bring destruction and death 

Solo 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11: Oscar Dronjak 
Solo 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12: Pontus Norgren 

The Demon Twelve, the hell hounds 
My name is Legion, for we are many spirits inside of one 
To build a land of chaos, brought forth from the Abyss 
My name is Legion, and we bring destruction and death

5. Between Two Worlds

In the distance mace, I see two doors 
One leads to change, one leads to where I've been before 
I am an angel, on broken wings 
I am the beast, the devil in all in between 
Nothing at all 

It's never dark here, it's never light 
Feeling like I'm caught between two worlds 
Between two worlds 

The when night comes down, the blade comes out 
I wish, I wish, I wish I felt something at all 
Nothing's wrong or right, nor black or white 
Behind the hurt I see the lust come shining through 
What do I do 

Just like the rainbow, between mist and sun 
Feeling like I'm trapped between two worlds 
Between two worlds 

Solo: Oscar Dronjak 

Never laugh or smile, I never cry 
My mind is numb, and I can't take it anymore 
Screaming in frustration, no sound is heard 
Am I asleep, or am I starring in a dream 
Please wake me up 

Sometimes the hunter, sometimes the prey 
Feeling like I'm trapped, lost and never found 
Feeling like I'm caught in two worlds 
Without a home

6. Hallowed Be My Name

I cover the trail behind me, stay out of the light 
There's something alive in the darkness 
I can feel the power and it's might 

For years I haved walked in the shadows 
Banned for my believes 
Cuz around me the walls are falling 
Bridges burn, in flames without a spark 

Cause I'm searching high and low 
Through dark places I must go 
I am the one you should not blame 
Hollowed be my Name - My Name 

There's no place for me in heaven, nor a place in hell 
Sentenced to walk here forever 
This will be my final place to dwell 

I walk alone, no legions will follow my path 
A stranger to my own shadow 
But something's wrong I can feel it to the bone 

When I stand on sea and shore 
Storms will rage and ocean roar 
I raise my hammer, take my aim 
Hallowed be my Name - My Name 

Vultures fly, the ravens cry 
No stars are shining on the darkened sky 
One allegiance, sun and moon 
My eyes are red my soul is turning into black 

When I stand on sea and shore 
Storms will rage and ocean roar 
I raise my hammer, take my aim 
Hallowed be my Name 

You can lie and crush my heart 
Steal my soul, tear me apart 
Still it's something you can not claim 
Hallowed be my Name - My Name

7. Something For The Ages
[Instrumental] 

Guitar solos and leads: Pontus Norgren 
Keyboard solo: Jens Johansson

8. No Sacrifice, No Victory

Sacrifice - Victory 
No Sacrifice - No Victory 

Once there was gold at the end of the rainbow 
Honored by blood we kept searching for more 
Light turned to dark as we lost what we fought for 
Now we have come to settle the score 

Sacrifice - Victory 
No Sacrifice - No Victory 

Light, brings us light on the pale darkened heavens 
Lead us towards our vast victory 
Fighting for all that we brothers believe in 
Together, united we're standing all for one 
On our pathway to glory, we stand together and honored by blood 
Sacrifice our resplendence, we fight for freedom, hold our grounds forever 
By the code we are living, we are breathing, and then we die 
Sacrifice our own lives, but we'll never stand to lose our pride and glory 

Solo: Pontus Norgren 

In the end only truth will survive, no matter what you sacrifice 
So you can't harvest your glory all based on deceit, cuz no one will swallow your lies 

On our pathway to glory, we stand together honored by blood 
Sacrifice our resplendence, we fight for freedom, hold our grounds forever 
By the code we are living, we are breathing, and then we die 
Sacrifice our own lives, but we'll never stand to lose our pride and glory 

Sacrifice - Victory 
Sacrifice - Victory 
Victory

9. Bring The Hammer Down

Solo: Stefan Elmgren 

There was a time when we were noble soldiers 
Fearless and wild, a fight just to survive 
Reformed our troops, one flag, one world united 
Under the sun the powers came alive 

The sound of our cause, the meaning of life 
Beyond stars and skies 
Now raise your hands and let it all come out 

Bring the Hammer down 
Slam it down to the ground 
One flag, one world united 

Templars, fight or fall 
Raise your fists, heed the call 
Bring the Hammer Down, behold the light 

No painted skies, we dwell in black and white 
Just live your life, like there is no tomorrow 
Present today, forgotten before dawn 

Still counting the stars, in search for a way 
The meaning of life 
Now raise your hands before your time runs out 

Bring the Hammer Down 
Slam it down to the ground 
One flag, one world united 

Templars, fight or fall 
Raise your fists, heed the call 
Bring the Hammer Down, behold the light 

Solo 1: Pontus Norgren 
Solo 2: Stefan Elmgren 
Solo 3: Both 

Bring the Hammer Down 
Slam it down to the ground 
One flag, one world united 

Templars, fight or fall 
Raise your fists, heed the call 
Bring the Hammer Down, behold the light

10. One Of A Kind

Rising forces, thunder in the east 
No fearless warrior could subdue the beast 
No gallant man around could stand and hold his ground 

Days passed by and weeks turned into years 
Every drip of hope becamse a sea of hours 
Somewhere in the dark, a light or just a spark 

Brothers in arms fighting one and for all 
Fearless and wild we stand tall, one of a kind 
No turning back, brothers fight or fall 
Standing together, we fight, one of a kind 

Years of darkness all torn by fate's hand 
A nation cursed, once glorious and grand 
From the ashes we will rise, like a Phoenix to the skies 

Brothers in arms fighting one and for all 
Fearless and wild we stand tall, one of a kind 
No turning back, brothers fight or fall 
Standing together, we fight, one of a kind 

Solo: Oscar Dronjak 

Come take my hand, don't leave me here all alone 
Come make a stand, don't let us fade away, fade away 

Solo: Pontus Norgren 

1666 - We stood in the valley of death 
Steel in our hands, the final command 
Mighty warriors - mount up don't stare at the ground 
Hold your heads high, resist and defy 
Fighting, defending, we're screaming, avenging you all 

We're standing all for one for all 
One voice we're one of a kind, we are 
Never look back, never surrender 

We're fighting all for one for all 
One heart, we're one of a kind, we are 
Cause we are here and we are fighting 

Brothers in arms fighting one and for all 
Fearless and wild we stand tall, one of a kind 
No turning back, brothers fight or fall 
Standing together, we fight, one of a kind 

Fighting, defending, we're screaming, avenging you all 

One of a Kind
