Artillery - Damned Religion

Lyrics

Your morals are not my morals
Your religion means nothing to me
Your two faced lying high priests of power
Take your gospel stay away from me

Your truth is not my truth
Your point of view means nothing to me
Your double talking jive motherfuckers
Take your bullshit stay away from me

False messiah legions of fire !
Religion is in your blood,
Religion is your drug, religions in your head
Can never get enough

Your twisted rhetoric it takes you higher
The lord you worship is the false messiah
The lives you prey on can't defend themselves
You use them up and make their lives all hell

You cheat and lie you use the weak and poor
Your so called master is a lying whore
Your evil empire is a cancer cell
You too will die and burn forever in hell

Your dreams are not my dreams
Your holy war means nothing to me
Your narrow minded no brain way of thinking
Your damned religion stay away from me

"Nightfall in Middle-Earth is the best Blind Guardian album" BULLSHIT!

The best Blind Guardian album is the Imaginations from the Other Side followed by Battalions of Fear then Follow the Blind.

One of my favorite tacks from the Follow the Blind is Valhalla:


Lyrics:
High in the sky where eagles fly
Morgray the dark enters the throne

Open wide the gate, friend
the king will come
blow the horn and praise
the highest Lord
who'll bring the dawn
he's the new god
in the palace of steel
persuade the fate of everyone
the chaos can begin
let it in
(Lead: Andre)

Bridge:
So many centuries
so many Gods
we were the prisoners
of our own fantasty
but now we are marching
against these Gods
I'm the wizard, I will change it all
(Lead: Andre, Marcus)

Ref.:
Valhalla - Deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
(Solo: Andre)�

Ref.:
Valhalla - Deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me

Magic is in me
I'm the lost magic man
never found what I was looking for
now I found it but it's lost

The fortress burns
broken my heart
I leave this world
all Gods are gone

Bridge:
So many centuries
so many Gods
we were the prisoners
of our own fantasy
but then we had nothing
to lead our life
no, no, we can't live without Gods

Ref.:
Valhalla - Deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me
(Lead: Kai)

(Both bridges were sung by
Kai Hansen)

Gammaray tip of the day - Ride the sky

Album: Alive '95



Ride The Sky - Gammaray

Much too long I've been a prisoner here
The hour has come to break out
Shackled and chained almost goin' insane
It's better to live on the run Set me free, set me free

Send me a sign, wanna leave it all behind
I'll be leaving the hands of doom
Rearrange the master plan, take the future in my hand
To be free and not trapped anymore

[Chorus]
Ride the sky, ride the sky Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
I have to think for myself and then act
In conformity of my own thoughts
No one should tell what's wrong and what's right
Why don't you leave me alone
Set me free, set me free

[Chorus]
[Solo: both/K/both/M]
[Chorus]

Avantasia - Another Angel Down lyrics

I am the master of the game
that s made a fool you
I m watching from the highest tower
You got the aura to enchant them - and a symphony
And I have got the power

You better taste - they call it life: my special area
I m breeding winners over there
Ain't it a sin to turn your back
on what you re given
It s time to take your share

God left me for dead - I've been turning my head
Away from the living - the time has come
To gamble for gain - To tear down the gate
And see what s inside

We rock the ball
Been smashed to the ground
Arose from devotion
To take a look and see what is inside
Sight of the crown: Another angel down
We rock the ball
I m facing my pain
With a rage and a symphony
Driven by the wounds I cannot hide
Rise above the crowd: another angel down

We ll see a black hole will be left up in the starry sky
We gotta mourn another angel
If I am just a light descending to caducity
It s still so far away

There s no tomorrow
I don t remember yesterday
I m just living for tonight
And all the love I m not gonna waste no more
I won t spit what s divine

They left you for dead - turning your head
Away form the living - from flesh and blood
You've got the draw and desire to claw
For fortune and fame

We rock the ball
Been smashed to the ground
Arose from devotion
To take a look and see what is inside
Sight of the crown: Another angel down
We rock the ball
I m facing my pain
With a rage and a symphony
Driven by the wounds I cannot hide
Rise above the crowd: another angel down

Night of Passion by The Poodles



Night of Passion lyrics:

Night falls, my mind recalls the sound of your heart breathing
Thoughts of your thousand kisses burning on my skin

I feel your desire as the moonlight lingers in the sky
I'm walking trough fire, can't you hear me when I cry

One night of passion, one night of hunger
And my attraction is getting stronger
I need to feel you, I need to hold you
I can't deny 'cause my heart is screaming out your name

My heart is screaming out your name

Tonight I won't be alone, doesn't mean that I'm not lonely
One minute is like an hour until you calm my pain

I feel your desire as the moonlight lingers in the sky
I walking trough fire, can't you hear me when I cry

One night of passion, one night of hunger
And my attraction is getting stronger
I need to feel you, I need to hold you
I can't deny 'cause my heart is screaming out your name

My heart is screaming out your name

Every time you're not around
You're a thought within my mind
Hold me near, never fear
I'm right beside

One night of passion, one night of hunger
And my attraction is getting stronger
I need to feel you, I need to hold you
I can't deny 'cause my heart is screaming out your name

One night of passion, one night of hunger
And my attraction is getting stronger
I need to feel you, I need to hold you
I can't deny 'cause my heart is screaming out your name

How I feel

In the way to work I was listening to Bruce Springsteen's Dancing in the Dark and I realized that I feel exactly as it is told in it.

Here are the lyrics:

Bruce Springsteen - Dancing In The Dark

I get up in the evening, and I aint got nothing to say
I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way
I aint nothing but tired, man Im just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You cant start a fire, you cant start a fire without a spark
This guns for hire even if were just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer, radios on and Im moving round the place
I check myself out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I aint getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this
Theres something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is

You cant start a fire...

You sit around getting older theres a joke here somewhere and its on me
Ill shake this world off my shoulders come baby this laughs on me

Stay on the streets of this town and theyll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry hey baby Im just about starving tonight
Im dying for some action Im sick of sitting round here trying to write
This book
I need a love reaction come on now baby give me just one look

You cant start a fire..

Tip of the day (music)

Hammerfall - Renegade

Lyrics:
See the outlaw stands alone beneath the burning sun
The raging badlands now is his home
There's no sign of victory, he lost his liberty
and the only woman that he loved

An outlaw chasing outlaws, a runner in the night
By the radiant moon he will strike
The seeker of all dangers has come to take his toll
From the dead of night he will arise

Renegade, Renegade
Committed the ultimate sin
Renegade, Renegade
This time the prowler will win

He stalks in shadow lands, soundless, with gun in hand
Striking like a reptile, so fierce
No chance to get away, no time for your last prayer
When the prowler sneaks up from behind

An outlaw chasing outlaws, the hunter takes his pray
The law of the jungle he obeys
Craving for the danger to even out the scores
Face to face, once and for all

Renegade, renegade
Committed the ultimate sin
Renegade, renegade
This time the prowler will win

On through the night he rides, on his raging
horse made of steel
Nothing can save you now, before the renegade
you will kneel

Renegade, Renegade
Committed the ultimate sin
Renegade, renegade
This time the prowler will win

Renegade, Renegade
Committed the ultimate sin
Renegade, renegade
This time the prowler will win
