Out of the darkness the voices are calling
Riding the wings of a song
The Fury is screaming and Heaven is falling
I feel it coming on strong.
[Chorus:]
The lightning strikes cracking the night
It feels like never before
Thunder and sparks in the Heart of the Dark
I hear a Rising Force.
Searching my soul I find something else
I take my life in my hands
From the gates of Heaven to the altars of Hell
The Power is at my command.
[Chorus:]
The lightning strikes cracking the night
I'm not the same anymore
Thunder and spark in the Heart of the Dark
I feel a Rising Force.
Burned by the glory of a sacred fire
A Rising Force starts to shine
Alone in the inferno it soars ever higher
Leaving the demons behind.
[Repeat first and second Chorus]

My one way ride in dead end street
Leading to victory and glory
You seek I hide you'll find defeat
My future's in the hands of fury
You try - but never win
Can't you see I am the demon driver
Don't lie it is a sin
Cuz you know I am the demon driver
I live to drive and never wait
For guardian angels riding by me
To speed or die I'm never late
Wherever you are there will be
You try - but never win
Can't you see I am the demon driver
Don't lie it is a sin
Cuz you know I am the demon driver
My one way ride in dead end street
Leading to victory and glory
You seek I hide you'll find defeat
My future's in the hands of fury
You try - but never win
Can't you see I am the demon driver
Don't lie it is a sin
Cuz you know I am the demon driver
				

I've had enough
Enough of your empty lies
It's time for you to go now
Sayonara forever

You just can't win
This time around
You must repent your sins
The truth was lost
But now it's found (again)

You must repent your sins

Well, I'll see you later
Much, much later
It's time for you to go now
Sayonara forever

You've always shared the light.
Although you could clearly see the sacrifice.
Preaching wrong from right.
Prosecution was the story of your life.

The blood money paid.
A kiss betrayed.

To be crucified.
And for thirty silver pieces.
For our sins he died.
To wear the crown of thorns.
It was his destiny.

And now the curtain is drawn.
And I can see the moment of some kind of truth.
They nailed you to the cross.
Although you walked the righteous path since your birth.

The blood money paid.
A kiss betrayed.
In this final hour.

To be crucified.
And for thirty silver pieces.
For our sins he died.
To wear the crown of thorns.
It was his destiny.

[guitar solo]

To be crucified.
And for thirty silver pieces.
For our sins he died.
To wear the crown of thorns.
It was his destiny.

To be crucified.
It was his destiny

Shades of night, fall upon my eyes
Lonely world fades away
Misty light, shadows start to rise
Lonely world fades away.
In my dreams your face is all I see
Through the night you share your love with me.
[Chorus:]
Dreaming visions of you
Feeling all the love I never knew.
Here we are on the crossroads of forever
Shining star lights the way.
Walk with me on the winds of time
Love's mystery is for us to find.
[Repeat Chorus]
Until that day, until the day I find you
I won't rest, I won't let go
Somehow some way, I know I'll be beside you
To warm my heart and fill my soul.
				

Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind

Move closer to me
I can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The Gates to Babylon
The power of what has been before
Rises to trap you within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away
Oh Gates of Babylon

You can see but you're blind
Someone turned the sun around
But you can see in your mind
The Gates of Babylon
You're riding the endless caravan
Bonded and sold as a slave
A saber dance removing all the veils
Getting as good as you gave
A saber dance removing all the veils
Getting as good as you gave
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away

Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind

Move closer to me
I can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The Gates of Babylon
The power of what has been before
Rises to trap you within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil, the devil will take you away
Black Gates of Babylon
The devil is me
And I'm holding the key
To the gates of sweet hell
Babylon

Rise up
Rise up

You know I have seen the dark side
But evil is not my friend
And you know I'll die trying
Keep trying to the end

You know I'm superstitious
The devil never pays
Victory is delicious
When you fall, fall from grace

My holy sacrifice
It's time for me to rise
The demons chained me down

It's time to rise
Rise up
Rise up
Rise
Rise up

I have had my share of fighting
But I still could fight some more
Now I can see the horizon
Much better than before

Been giving all these years
My blood, my sweat, my tears
I'll carry on forever

My holy sacrifice
It's time for me to rise
The demons chained me down

It's time to rise
Rise up
Rise up
Rise up

No

My holy sacrifice
It's time for me to rise
The demons chained me down

Been giving all these years
My blood, my sweat, my tears
I'll carry on forever

Time to rise
Rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Rise
				

Been trying to run
Run with the Devil
But finding the sun
Burning forever

Been trying to fight
Fight fire with fire
But finding the light
Burning forever

Let sleeping dogs lie
And don't even try
To mend what has not been broken

Been trying to find
To find peace of mind
But I've been running blind
Been running forever

I've been trying fight
Fight fire with fire
But finding the light
Still burning forever
				

Burning down the avenue
Carburetor's breathing
Feel the torque push on through
Hear the tires screaming
Pedal to the metal
Drop the clutch and run
Now the tires are burning
And the racing has begun
Hear the engine roar
In this mean machine
Times standing still
And My red devil is flying
Catch me if you can
Full speed ahead
In this read brutal beauty
Four hundred horses running wild
Sayonara see you later
Now you disappear
In my rear view mirror as I am changing gear
Screaming down the boulevard
You will eat my dust
This fire breathing beauty
I will always trust
Hear the engine roar
In this mean machine
Times standing still
And My red devil is flying
Catch me if you can
Times standing still
And My red devil is flying
Catch me if you can

Lost in a dream in the arms of the night
Two lonely prisoners of our own device
Don't let me go. Hold on together
You wanna know if love can be real
I wanna take everything I can steal
Love on the line, it's now or never.
Why can't the night last forever.
[Chorus:]
This could be Paradise
Holding you here by my side
If we just close our eyes
We'll be in Heaven tonight.
Run through the night down streets of desire
Burning my soul, my heart's on fire
Give up the fight, it's sweet surrender
With trembling hands we reach for it all
Two desperate hearts waiting to fall
I need you now, now more than ever.
Why can't the night last forever.
[Repeat first Chorus]
This feels like Paradise
I see the world in our eyes
If we just hold on tight
We'll be in Heaven tonight.

I've seen visions in the night, passing through the stars
Who's to run and who's to fight?

Evil tries to pull me in, enslaving me to die
Who's to lose and who's to win

I'll see the light, tonight
Flashing through the sky
Take my life, tonight

Now, the chaos has begun, people crying out
You're all alone, you gotta run

Victims of circumstance, not able to decide
No, we never had a chance

I'll see the light, tonight
Flashing through the sky
Take my life, tonight

Evil tries to pull me in, enslaving me to die
Who's to lose and who's to win

Victims of circumstance, not able to decide
No, we never had a chance

I'll see the light, tonight
Flashing through the sky
Take my life, tonight
