Kingmaker 03:26
Win after win All consumed in sin Feeling out of touch and like an enemy Not of this world Trying to be heard Breaking through the walls to reach your destiny Kingmaker Fight for the cause Whenever was it lost? No one else but you can seem to bring it back Clearing out corruption A herald of disruption All that was will crumble under your attack Counting down the seconds one by one All the while you have to be strong Kingmaker Anoints the chosen son Kingmaker You're the one Getting close to victory, an ending to this war Who had ever thought that you could get this far? A simple man, the perfect tool Just go and fight for those Who are on top, but never more, now you'll show them all! [Solo: Dejan Rosić] Kingmaker Anoints the chosen son Kingmaker You're the one

Rise Above 03:33
Sick and tired of playing their game Time to draw the line They won't be keeping us down This is our time We are breaking down the walls and We will have it all We are shedding all fears Time for them to fall Rise above We are the new foundation Rise above it all We are the spark that lights the fire We rise to the challenges before us We go on, when everything is wrong We won't back down Not when we're on our way, we will make them pay All the things that came before Time to make a change There ain't no turning back "Them and us" are estranged Our own future in our hands We will take control This is the one and only way To once again be whole Rise above We are the new foundation Rise above it all We are the future Rise above We are the new foundation Rise above it all We are the spark that lights the fire

The Traveler 04:28
I've been known as the traveler Everywhere I go Wherever there's place for the lonely I'll be there, you know As a bearer of all news I take the good with the bad Whatever the payment might be can decide what you'll have Been such a long time Since I stepped out the door Can hardly remember the way back home no more It's all the same though I am destined to roam The road was always meant to be my home Oh oh oh I'll always be the lonely traveler On the road again Travel all the land Always on this endless journey Please understand, it is all for you I bring a cure for the lonely With every ounce of me Will I ever get back what I give, we'll see I offer everything and keep nothing for myself I give you all I've got each time Oh oh oh I'll always be the lonely traveler On the road again Travel all the land Always on this endless journey Please understand, it is all for you [Solo: Jonathan Aagaard Morheim] Oh oh oh I'll always be the lonely traveler On the road again Travel all the land Always on this endless journey Please understand, it is all for you I'll always be the lonely traveler All alone

Hellfire 03:29
Unleash this storm of retribution We are breaking the seals Go on with this furious solution We will bring forth the steel An instrument of pain Carry forth fire and flame Under the control by the anointed Every time it's worth the price Dominate your paradise Hellfire Ignite the funeral pyre Hellfire Exterminate the liars Contraptions that fuel this bloody vengeance Are now wielded by greed A tool that promise peace But the pain will never cease As long as its masters are corrupted Just to fire and forget Now eradicate the threat Never giving in to shame Make it all go up in flame It is over in a flash Everything will turn to ash Every time it's worth the price Scar another paradise Hellfire Hellfire [Solo: Dejan Rosić, Jonathan Aagaard Morheim] Just to fire and forget Now eradicate the threat Never giving in to shame Make it all go up in flame It is over in a flash Everything will turn to ash Every time it's worth the price Scar another paradise Hellfire Ignite the funeral pyre Hellfire Exterminate the liars

I feel so tired and my bones are filled with pain And it's the same old things that visits me again A feeling that it's something missing from my soul But what it is I cannot fathom or control Feels like I've lived a thousand lives Chasing the rainbow Getting lost in the cold Chasing the rainbow While I'm searching for gold Once again I try so hard but I'm too late A lesser man would likely start to lose his faith But never I, I'll never give up on this quest I'll carry on until I reach my final rest Every setback brings me strength Chasing the rainbow Getting lost in the cold Chasing the rainbow While I'm searching for gold So now I'm here under the glow of northern lights I finally have found my prize How can I settle for a goal that has been reached? I'll carry on, there must be more [Solo: Jonathan Aagaard Morheim] Chasing the rainbow Getting lost in the cold Chasing the rainbow While I'm searching for gold Chasing the rainbow Getting lost in the cold Chasing the rainbow Now I have found my gold

You see the smoke is rising Soon ashes and fire will follow Meet the destruction of the world The sky consumed by darkness Land and sea in great upheaval Are we the last ones of our kind? We head for destruction Still gathering speed We're stealing everything we 'need' Just keeping our eyes shut Keep playing the fools Defying every single rule We are blind to our own fate Blind to the signs Unaware of all but for the headlines Now time marches on Getting worse every day Will it be too late when we find our way We're on a one way track As we head for the darkness We will all pay the price You can pray all you want, it won't bring the light You see the smoke is rising Soon ashes and fire will follow Meet the destruction of the world The sky consumed by darkness Land and sea in great upheaval Are we the last ones of our kind? A promise is hell When you know it's a lie [Solo: Jonathan Aagaard Morheim] At last at the crossroads Our greatest choice Time to speak up in one united voice Remain silent now Then it's too late And we have truly sealed our fate We will all pay the price You can pray all you want, it won't bring the light You see the smoke is rising Soon ashes and fire will follow Meet the destruction of the world The sky consumed by darkness Land and sea in great upheaval Are we the last ones of our kind? You see the smoke You see the fire Meet the destruction of the world The sky turned dark Eternal night Are we the last ones of our kind?

Burn it Down 03:25
Ain't no way to get out of this hole I've reached the end of the line Spent it all to satisfy my soul The reaper says it's my time Is there anywhere for me go? A place where I can be safe? The only thing that is left to do The only way to be free Burn it down Burn it down Down to the ground I set the world on fire Lost it all To no fault of my own A victim of circumstance Now opportunities to set things straight Are here, so I'll take my chance Burn it down Burn it down Down to the ground I set the world on fire Don't you try to get in my way I have arrived, this is my day Burn it down Burn it down Down to the ground I set the world on fire Know that I do I set the world on fire

He has felt it calling In the dead of night That rage like thunder Preparing him to fight A switchblade flashing And the screams of pain People back down now Here he goes again Heeds the voices calling, it's the Fall of a common man Ain't no coming back again from a Fall of a common man Oh no Been a long time coming Always on the edge The smallest infraction Could have pushed him off the ledge Now it's finally happened All hell breaks loose And it's all downhill now As he's heading for the noose He never meant for it to go so far Fall of a common man Ain't no coming back again from a Fall of a common man Oh no [Solo: Dejan Rosić] No one ever thinks their life will turn out the way it does But who's to say, in what way, you're ever in control Just a twist of destiny decides where you will go All that's up to you and me is what to make of it all

You can play by the rules and do whatever you've been told Live a simple life of sorts and die when you get old Or you can take my hand and turn your back on the light Face your fears and follow that sirens call of the night Hear the sounds of the night Just as soft as a kiss Hear the sounds of the night Still louder than hell Now that you have seen the powers hidden in the dark It is time for letting go and proudly wear her mark You'll join this gathering as one enlightened soul And start your mission of spreading her control Hear the the sounds of the night Yeah, it's calling you out Hear the sounds of the night You're under its spell [Solo: Jonathan Aagaard Morheim, Dejan Rosić] Hear the sounds of the night Just as soft as a kiss Hear the sounds of the night Still louder than hell Hear the the sounds of the night Yeah, it's calling you out Hear the sounds of the night You're under its spell

Renegade 03:45
Running through the night Another day another fight Death is just a step behind The world has fallen Running from the gallows pole Only vengeance on his mind Nowhere to go Nowhere to hide Death is always By his side Death creeps the land Fall where you stand No one can escape the Renegade Die by his hand Marked by the brand No one can escape the Renegade Always on the hunt Finding his own battlefront Condemnation all around Now who is chasing who? Hunter or pray, which one are you? The answer, soon it will be found Nowhere to go Nowhere to hide A restless soul It's time to ride Death creeps the land Fall where you stand No one can escape the Renegade Die by his hand Marked by the brand No one can escape the Renegade [Solo: Dejan Rosić] Death creeps the land Fall where you stand No one can escape the Renegade Die by his hand Marked by the brand No one can escape the Renegade
