1. Only Human

On and on you keep telling me lies
But what does it take to make your more wise
Take a look at the things we've done
Together we were strong when it all began
When we trought that we could conquer it all
No mountain to high nothing too tall
Why is your fire burning so low
Did you lose all your faith
Did you forget'bout the dreams that we had
I can't bear your mistakes and that's driving me mad
Nowhere to go and nowhere to hide
Two hearts as one i'm still willing to fight

So do you believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me helping hand

Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling
Cause i gave you my heart and my soul

Did you expect me to pay all your dues
Why did you gamble whit all we had to lose
Now that we're lost and the sky's closing in
We ruled a game that we couldn't win
Building a castle whit our sweat and our blood
Stone after stone and our clothes stained whit me
Mud
Noting to hard and our forces unite
But we've torn apart and we've killed our light
What about all the dreams that we had
Why did you trade in the good for the bad
Wasn't it worth to take hold of the flame
You turned away but what was your aim

I still believe in the force of our love
Why don't you lend me helping hand

Only human - I am only human
Why must you be fooling


2. Take Me Away

Somewhere beyond
In the dark there's a light
Taking my fears
And my dreams out of sight
Gives me the power
And the will to survive this fight

I've travelled for ages
In search of the truth
Thousand of pages
Have paid off their dues
But they can't tell
What i am longing for

And when the dawn of the victory
Is rising with dignity
And then i'll know where to go

Take me away
Into infinity
I just cant stay
Realese my tragedy
And i swear
That i'll take more than i can bear
So take me away

Deep down my soul
There's a fire that burns
I won't hesitate
I'll always return
surrendering all of the duties
That i was chosen for

I've conquered it all
And so what is the price
I bag for delieverence
Now that i'm wise
Why don't you ease my pain
And free my soul

So i'm laying my weapons down
Do i deserve the crown
Cause i'm here to take my place

Take me away.......


3. Take My Pain

I can feel the heat
as it burns my skin
can you hear my creed
I'm paying for my sins
Rainy days and sleepless nights
I've been thru it all
Watch me now as i fall
Can't you hear my call

You have gone away
I could not make you stay
And all that is left is

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain

The chances that i've dared to take
Couldn't pay their dues
The words i've said the good and the bad
Why did you refuse
Now i'm here all by myself
You coldn't bring me down
Watch me now i'm ten feet tall
There goes out my call

You have gone away
There's nothing left to say
All that is left is

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain

So tell me why did you leave me
Where was i wrong
Tell me why did you break my heart
What was the reason

P A I N - Release me
P R I D E - Don't tease me
S H A M E - Why don't you take away my pain


4. Heaven

Too many questions runnin' through your head
Speaking a language I don't understand
Blame me as always with that look in your eye
The sound of your silence asking me why

How many times must I try to tell you
For every tear that you cry my heart dies
There's no return for me

Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word, you're not the one

Now you're begging me to cure you from the pain
But the fats remain the same
The years that we had that you treasure in your heart
Was just a mistake from the start

Too many times must I try to tell you
For every tear that you cry my heart died
There's no return for me

Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word, you're not the one

Cause all that I need is to find some peace of mind
Oh can't you forgive and try

Heaven is somewhere beyond
A place you don't know, so far from here
Heaven is somebody else, no I can't pretend
Take my word, you're not the one


5. Chained

Don't try to change me
Don't try to stop the roll of the dice
The fate of mine
Choices I'm making, the plays I act
I don't expect you to understand

Now, I can tell you must be hurting
Don't think I don't, keep hangin' on
Hide in my shadow, but you should know
You got me...

Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
Our days are numbered can't you see
Chained
That is nothing, but a game to me

It's in your hearbeat
Every word you speak
You fear the moment you'll watch me leave
No matter how much you are burning
You're still too cold
Well, my love can't be trusted
You ought to know

I feel the pain in your denials
Don't think I don't, telling yourself it
Isn't over, but we both know
You got me...

Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
Our days are numbered can't you see
Chained

Release me from this slavery...
It's nothing but a game to me, you got me

Chained
Release me from this slavery
Chained
You'll never get the best of me
Chained
Our days are numbered can't you see
Chained
That is nothing, but a game to me


6. Broken Vow

Watching the tears melt
With the rain on my skin
What was my mistake
What was my sin
Will you be there
Just to show me the way
Who do you dare the
Long and winding road
There is hardly anything
You could compared

Don't you see
What you've down to me

You left this broken vow
But why did you break my heart
We could be closer now
But why did you break my heart

Unspoken words
Violence and hate
We've been through it all
But now that's it's too late
So I'm sending out this prayer
Towards the heaven that we owned
So much higher than the mountains
And the fields of love we roamed
Running towards eternity
In search for peace of mind

Don't you see
What you've down to me

You left this broken vow
But why did you break my heart
We could be closer now
But why did you break my heart


7. The Evil in You

Well there's something there that's frightening
It lives close to your heart
Something makes you scared
And it tears you apart

And you send a prayer for mercy
But it won't release your soul
So you try to break away
But it tears down the wall

You can feel it comin' closer
And there's nowhere you can turn
It takes away your freedom
It gets your soul to burn

Cause that's the evil
The evil in you

It chains your soul forever
In a room without a door
And you can feel it's now or never
That you got to join the war

As you raise your hand against it
You can feel the rising force
And you know that you will stand it
As you raise your burning cross

As a lightning cracks the sky
With a shine you've never seen
And the walls of darkness open up
And you stand in between

Cause that's the evil
The evil in you

As a lightning cracks the sky
With a shine you've never seen
And the walls of darkness open up
And you stand in between

Cause that's the evil
The evil in you


8. Fallen Angel

Now that I see myself without the shades of fear
The tears of bitterness taste strange but now it's clear
And I used to think I've owned a wall that's build with love
But you have torn it into fragments stone by stone
Then you gave me a bouquet of roses
They where black and seed with hate
You treated me like I'm your enemy
You where the one who opened the gate

The robe that you're wearing now
Carries all my dreams and I hope that you can bear
That you're just a

Fallen angel - digging the dirt
Fallen angel - what is the word
Fallen angel - down to the bone
Fallen angel - now you're alone

Down to the bone, you're just a fallen angel

The words you've chosen were like arrows in my heart
What's your intention did you plan that from the start
I thought I've laid out all my dreams in your hands
And I truly hope that you know where this ends
Jealousy seemed to be master
The reason that caused this disaster
I feel like I'm reading an epitaph
You've buried our friendship and love

The robe that you're wearing now
Carries all my dreams and I hope that you can bear

Fallen angel - digging the dirt
Fallen angel - what is the word
Fallen angel - down to the bone
Fallen angel - now you're alone

Down to the bone, you're just a fallen angel


9. The Curtain Will Fall

I can see right through your evil eyes
I never knew that you're the devil in disguise
The game you've played as far beyond the rules we've made
Now that we're through all your excuses are too late
Getting closer right here with me
I take you over then I'll make you see
What you've caused inside of me

So the curtain will fall
And you'll be there with your back to the wall
I won't recall all the pain I will conquer it all

I have tried to lend my hand to save your soul
Walking side by side towards to reach our goals
The chains you've put me on went rusty through the years
Now that I hold the and teared away my fears
Getting closer right here with me
I take you over then I'll make you see
What you've caused inside of me

So the curtain will fall
And you'll be there with your back to the wall
I won't recall all the pain I will conquer it all

So the curtain will fall
And you'll be there with your back to the wall
Don't you recall the days of joy
That we shared after all
I will conquer it all

And then the shades appear from the dust
They're longing for your soul
And there's no way
To ease your pain they will linger on

So the curtain will fall
And you'll be there with your back to the wall
I won't recall all the pain I will conquer it all


10. Dragonchaser

Chasing the evil
Is like chasing a dream
Haunting the bad
Is like a poem with no theme
Race with no end
Fight you can?t win
Try to defend
Or you'll pay for your sins

Darkness has come
Spreading it's wings
But you're the chosen to lose or to win

Chasing a dragon
That's the war of your life
Eye of the eagle
That cuts like a knife

Sharp like a razor
To tear down the bad
The force will be with you
When you fighting like mad

That's why call you the DRAGONCHASER
Call you the DRAGONCHASER

You cover your skin
With the blood of your victim
But the leaf of an oak
Leaves woundable spot

The blood that you bleed
Is liquid as steel
The wounds that you cause
Will never heal

Chasing a dragon
That's the war of your life
Eye of the eagle
That cuts like a knife

Sharp like a razor
To tear down the bad
The force will be with you
When you fighting like mad

[Chorus]


11. Shiver

Though your blood runs through my veins
I have a hard time to play this game
You have seen me fall before
I still need you to let me go

Shivers the spine when I'm alive
Shivers the spine when I die

Please don't leave me all alone
I have love that I've never shown
All those years I lived in vain
Please don't force me through all this pain

Why can't life be fair - War is in the air
I can't seem to find - To God I am blind

Shivers the spine when I'm alive
Shivers the spine when I die

All this pain... All this pain... All this pain...

Shivers the spine when I'm alive
Shivers the spine when I die


12. Cold as Ice

I saw many faces as I turn these pages
But I don't know where we went wrong
Tell me now what I can do, I'm saving all my prayers for you
We both know that we can turn the wheels of time

You're cold as ice, I've seen your eyes
And you never try to tell me lies

You know that I'll never take less than forever
Why won't you stay, what can I say
Don't you make a fool of me, show me all so I can see
We're just friends but I can't take your lies again

You're cold as ice, you've rolled the dice
And you never try to tell me lies

Through the eyes of darkness I can't see the light
Standing tall against the rain that I will fight
Never share the secrets leading to your soul
Behind the mask of wisdom lies a big black hole

You're cold as ice, I've seen your eyes
And you never try to tell me lies
You're cold as ice, you've rolled the dice
And you never try to tell me lies


13. Flying High (Remastered)

You never see what's inside of me
That's why you won't face the truth
Fighting forever a fight you can't win
Touching my soul ain't like touching my skin

Open your mind don't you ever slow down
Spread out your wings and reach out for the crown

It's not made out of gold
Cause it's the crown of thorns
Not made for human soul
Ashes to ashes
Thats where it ends
Nobody could get more far beyond

Flying high I can see the years pass by
And I won't return to the same old places
That I've been before
Is it still the same old face
I can see no more
O' see no more

Out in the gutter like a fox on the run
Everone's after your dreams
So did you learn your lesson well
If you did not they will send you to hell

Inside your heart you will never forget
How things went wrong and made you feel so sad
But the path is to small noone's gonna hear your call
As you wander by yourself

Ashes to ashes
Thats where it ends
Nobody could get more far beyond

Flying high I can see the years pass by
And I won't return to the same old places
That I've been before
Is it still the same old face
I can see no more
O' see no more

[Solo]

Flying high....


14. Princess of the Night

I've been waitin for such a long time
I didn't care there was nothin left to lose
couldn't find the sense of my life
until the day when you appeared

from the moment you've entered my world
you made me turn around
and you stole my heart away
but now you've gone
my life's just dark and grey
so here is what I say....

when the sun comes down on you
I'll be by your side
(and ) when the evening's there
you'll be my princess of the night

time moves on and I can't make it stand
never cared for me and you've just let it end
what have you done you've thrown it all away
now my heart is empty and there's nothin left to say

from the day that you've captured my heart
you filled me up with love
made my dreams come true
so now you've gone
and there's no eternity
so here is what I say

when the sun comes down on you
I'll be by your side
(and ) when the evening's there
you'll be my princess of the night

let me take your hand
and lead you to the promise land
I'll be next to you
Cause you're my princess of the night


15. Heart of Steel

shadows so pale
in the heat of the night
fading to grey
cause they're scared by the light

shootin their arrows
with the wings of pain
restless unkind
but they keep on fightin in vain

tryin to be who you are
the harder you try the closer you'll get
when you fight with a heart of steel

bloodstains in red
that cover your clothes
telling the truth
'bout the souls that have passed

the things that you see
as you read between the lines
won't let you be
'cause they're just partners in crime

tryin to be who you are
the harder you try the closer you'll get
when you fight with a heart of steel
fightin a war you can't win
the only things that stay are you're sins
but you fight with a heart of steel


16. Ride the Sky

Ever since you went away
I feel so empty, cold and bare
And all that I can do is wait
Pray to give me peace of mind

Sacred heart what I long to get
I'm losing the ground
The earth starts to quake
Doors open up
I see the burning gate

But I tear down these bridges
I keep fighting for our love

Ride the sky
Rising higher above the clouds
Ride the sky
Following the decent name

We thought we could rule the world
Nothing that we couldn't bear
Side by side we walked the line
It felt so strong your hand in mine
Sacred heart I just can't regret

Where is my heart
I lay down the cards
Until the day
We will fall apart

I keep tearing down these bridges
I keep fighting for our love

18. Heroes of Honour

[Instrumental]


19. Logical Song (Supertramp cover)

When I was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees
Well they'd be singing so happily
Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
But then they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And they showed me a world
Where I could be so dependable
Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am

Now watch what you say
Or they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won't you sign up your name
We'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable

At night when all the world's asleep
The questions run soo deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am


20. Shout (Tears for Fears cover)

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them, goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

CHORUS
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on


21. Highway Star (Deep Purple cover)

Nobody gonna take my car, I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car, it's gonna break the speed of sound
Oh, it's a killing machine,it's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tires everything

I love it and I need it I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright, hold tight, I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my girl I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl she stays close on every bend
Oh, she's a killing machine, she's got everything
Like a moving mouth, body control and everything

I love her, I need her, I seed her
Yeah, she turns me on
Alright, hold tight, I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my head I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head now that I'm on the road again
Oh, I'm in heaven again, I've got everything
Like a moving ground, throttle control and everything

I love it, I need it, I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Alright, hold tight, I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my car, I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car, it's gonna break the speed of sound
Oh, it's a killing machine, it's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tires everything

I love it and I need it I bleed it
Yeah, it's a wild hurricane
Alright, hold tight, I'm a highway star

(2x)
I'm a highway star


22. The Winner Takes It All (ABBA cover)

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play


The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's a destiny


I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules


The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all.
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain.
Why should I complain.


But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed


The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all


I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...


Someone dear...
Takes it all...
The loser ...
Has to fall...
Throw a dice...
As cold as ice...
Someone way down here...
Someone dear...
Takes it all...


23. Money Money (ABBA cover)

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world


24. S.O.S. (ABBA cover)

Where are those happy days
They seem so hard to find
I try to reach for you
But you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice
It used to be so good
So when you're near me
Darling, can't you hear me, S.O.S.
The love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I carry on
You seem so far away
Though you are standing near
You made me feel alive
But something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love
It used to be so good
So when you're near me
Darling, can't you hear me, S.O.S.
The love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I carry on
So when you're near me
Darling, can't you hear me, S.O.S.
And the love you gave me
Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I carry on
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone
Though I try, how can I carry on

27. Eye of the Tiger (Survivor cover)

Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger

Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye
It's the eye of the tiger

It's the eye of the tiger [8x]


28. Desperado (The Eagles cover)

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out ridin' fences,
for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
but I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me some fine things
have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones
that you can't get

Desperado
Oh, you ain't getting no younger.
Your pain and your hunger,
they're driving you home
And freedom, oh freedom
well that's just some people talking.
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
And you're losing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes
away...

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
(let somebody love you)
You better let somebody love you
before it's too late.
