1. The Gate
[Hansen, Rettke, Paeth]
2. In Control
[Rettke]
You think you have the right suspicion each move you make is in control you won't believe it's like a vision
what do you feel? Is this the price you'll pay? Some say they heal, they guide your steps in other ways
[CHORUS:] In Control See that it's real In Control It's a dirty nightmare In Control
The world is changing face and body corrupted minds are gaining ground if you won't change, they'll have the glory
Try to beware from now to eternity wake up and watch those cold blue eyes and died blond hair
You're waiting for the last command to destroy your promised land the mighty will be satisfied when you've killed your fellows right don't make no stranger of body and soul feel all the danger, you're under control breakin' the grip, makes no difference at all fight for the rights of all colors you call
3. Turn It Down
[Rettke/Bilski]
We're gonna rock you if your metal hunger burns drive into your heads with a 100.000 turns if you are made for metal, so raise your fist and yell
Can't you hear, it sounds so clear in my ears there's a voice WE'LL NEVER GIVE IT UP!
Come here and stay, we'll blow the night away there's magic in the air you're strong enough, you've got it, don't be tough and you scream
[CHORUS:] TURN IT DOWN bang your head TURN IT DOWN straight ahead
You love that power and you know it's no disgrace metal is the best we've invented for the human race you're rising up to heaven and never come back to the ground
We wanna hear your calling when our sound fills the air and when the night is falling we are together, forever we are together and we TURN IT DOWN
4. Surrender
[Rettke/Bilski]
Face to face, an eye for an eye guess I'm leaving this town forever want to break free from all those old lies we're living too long together
Just can't stand it or face more of the same I've got the choice to stay or to leave watching our dreams go down the drain saying goodbye to what I believed
defences were down, you're willing to go anywhere but now the future is over, say you never cared
[CHORUS:] I SURRENDER never coming back I SURRENDER never looking back
I'm not down, I'm breaking these chains taking some time to watch the sunrise life will never be the same again now I know it's been a matter of lies
It's taking me high I'm leaving this town, yes I'm free now, I'm leaving, I'm watching the sky
5. Hot Fever
[Rettke/Bilski]
Drivin' down the avenue and you hear that downtown melody standing in that city heat and you know that's your destiny
Feel the sound, watch the blood red lights now your veins feel power, and you're hypnotized
[CHORUS:] HOT FEVER you've got that downtown love HOT FEVER it's burning inside out HOT FEVER
Sound is firing up your blood and your body makes a powerdive you believe in metal gods if you feel that mental overdive
for your mind it's a losing game and your eyes are hot like a burning flame
6. Tyrants
[Rettke]
When the fire is over and you're down on the ground you are searching the daylight but it just can't be found what's the sense of this madness you don't know those rules war is only a game for the ruling fools
come and fight it, you've got to feel hard as a rock, cold as the steel don't kill this world, it's the only place to live in harmony for the human race
[CHORUS:] HUNTING THE TYRANTS HUNTING THE TYRANTS HUNTING THE TYRANTS HUNTING THE TYRANTS we need no sirens again and again we have to fight for our love
We don't need no protection for the future at all no atomic reation for our lives to fall just believe in tomorrow put your love in the air please don't drive us to sorrow if you wanna be fair
7. Path Or Glory
[Rettke/Bilski/Muller/Jordan]
I tell a story of a man, his name is IRON SWORD he wants to safe the ruined land, he's a courageous lord he's on his way, when he will lose his life he cannot say
he's escorted by a crowd of men, ten warriors of steel they're breaking through the ice and wind, like a burning wheel they wanna fight, ride on a flash of light
[CHORUS:] They sit all alone and they can watch the iron tower they all strive for fame and they are riding on the PATH OF GLORY
Now they attack the fortress and they're looking 'round in fright no king is sitting on the throne, a beast they have to fight they wanna go, knowing that they're standing all alone
The evil force is on attack, they hear the devil's bell there is no way to turn back, it's coming out of hell taking their minds, hell and fire makes them blind
[CHORUS:] They sit all alone and they can feel the flash and thunder no way to escape, they have to cry
From the back there comes a light the holy sword is entering the fight iron fist breaks the evil's soul iron sword is leading on the PATH OF GLORY
8. Shadows
[Rettke]
As you were down again, you told me all those lies and you know I've to pray you're life is still a game, I waited for the price and I know I've to pay
You've been a runaway, feeling as cold as ice asked me if you could stay, I felt like been hypnotized heaven will know, know the reason why you never showed that sorrow in your eyes
You told me those lies that you'd make a turn but I could see in your eyes that you never would learn
[CHORUS:] IN THE SHADOW, shadow of your life IN THE SHADOW, you could not deny when you're drunk you were lost, and you're having no way something is even to say IN THE SHADOW of your life
Now that you've gone away I look at the morning sun all night long I move and stray thinking of things we've done heaven will know, know the reason why you had to go on broken wings up the sky
