1. Chasing Shadows 4.38

Music & Words : Tolkki



I have been sailing across the oceans

Flying across the blue sky

Without never finding the answer

The answer to question why



Just when you think you reach it

It's gone



Chasing shadows

Chasing shadows

Chasing shadows - all your life



Harder you try to fix things in your life

Faster you know it's in vain

Searching for loving from strangest places

Nothing is left but the pain



Just when you think you reach it

It's gone



Chasing shadows

Chasing shadows

Chasing shadows - all your life







2. 4th Reich 5.49

Music & Words : Tolkki



Sign of the times

And writings on the wall

They show me its time has come

Order of a new kind

We will all find

Stronger than never before



Things are pretty much the same

Like in the year '38

Oh won't we ever learn?

This time it's gonna be different

So let's all join our hands

And let the children sing

For the last time



4th reich is rising

Can't you see the signs?

4th reich is rising

For the last time



Let's just press more money

Don't worry about the inflation

We got to have more weapons to carry on

Unemployment and sorrow

Cannot be avoided at this point

But things will be so different

When they are ruling the world



4th Reich is rising

Can't you see the signs?

4th Reich is rising

For the last time



What will be left to our children?

Is this our final destiny?







3. Eyes Of The World 5.57

Music & Words : Tolkki



Everywhere I go

I see people staring at me

It makes me feel so strange

Why won't they just leave me be

So take a look in the mirror

And maybe you'll see

All the things that happened

While you were looking at me

Am I really so different?



In the eyes of the world

You are no different to me

In the eyes of the world

Is it so hard to see now?



Everything we do

Is running into the sand

And who is to take the food

Away from the children's hand

We all could be friend now

And it's not a crime

But we have to be quick now

Because we ain't got much time

Are we really so different?



In the eyes of the world

You are no different to me

In the eyes of the world

Is it so hard to see now?







4. Hold On To Your Dream 3.34

Music : Tolkki

Words : Tolkki, Lassila



Since you were born

Pushed into corner and left all alone

Told what to do, obey all the rules

Be just like everyone else, those fools

Day at the school

Teacher's a bully, you're mobbed as a rule

Nothing from TV, your folks are away

You are trapped inside this house, you must stay home



Now it's time for you to move on

Leave the shadows of your past

Don't let them haunt you forever



Hold on to your dream

Somewhere there's a beam

Of hope which is guiding your way through the dark

This is your chance

Your love, your romance

Hold on to your dream and never give up in your life

Hold on to your dream







5. Magic Carpet Ride 4.49

Music & Words : Tolkki



Let me take you to the faraway places

Where you've never been to the orient lands

Soon you will notice the mountains and forests

We're flying over them now



Don't you be afraid

Just take my hand

As we race with four winds



Welcome to the land of mystery

Welcome to the land of secrets

This is no ancient history

We are flying through the gates of Babylon



Allah is speaking us all with his mighty voice

Bowing to his power as we go down

This magic carpet ride is not a dream to us

It's really happening now



Welcome to the land of mystery

Welcome to the land of secrets

This is no ancient history

We are flying through the gates now







6. We Are The Future 5.20

Music & Words : Tolkki



What is wrong with a man

Destroying the land

Our planet is full of waste

Sheltering ozone layer is no more a shield

The temperature is rising up



Now it's time to stop this madness

Preventing increasing sadness

Let's put end to all this while we can



Man against another man

How somebody can

Judge by colour of the skin

See the signs make up your mind

Now it's time for the change

It is not too late



Now it's time to stop this madness

Preventing increasing sadness

Let's put end to all this while we can



Save us, we are the future

Lead us into the better world now

Show us the way to reality

No more injustice or cruelty



Save us, we are the future

Lead us into the better world now

Show us the way to reality

Injustice is all gone



Fast, fast stop this course now

Last, last or we won't last

Past, stop living in the past or you will die

End, end, end of our time

Time our precious time

Crime, crime against mankind we have to pay



In the course of mad destruction

There'll be no coming back

The nuclear end is in sight

Soon there will be no one to fight with

Take a look into the sky

It may be your last time

The complete end is in sight

Soon there will be no one to with



Save us, we are the future

Lead us into the better world now

Show us the way to reality

No more injustice or cruelty



Save us, we are the future

Lead us into the better world now

Show us the way to reality

Injustice is all gone







7. Tears Of Ice 5.15

Music & Words : Tolkki



Tear of ice falling down

My cheeks forming a lake

In its surface I see your face

And I watch it 'til it's gone



There were times all I did was cry out your name

Only thing I feel now is pain...



Tears of ice frozen heart

Icy drops fall to the ground

Forming stream, golden dream

That will lead me to your door



There were times all I did was cry out your name

Only thing I feel now is pain...



Baby your should see

What you did to me

Now I am crying tears of ice

Baby you should feel

Like I felt in those days

Now I am crying tears of ice







8. Dreamspace 5.58

Music & Words : Tolkki



Looking back through time

To my childhood days

I used to have a place

Where I could escape the reality

But lately things have been

So difficult for me

Trying to reach for the light

In the fall of darkness



Waiting watching my life

I'm wasting my time

I'm losing grip from life

Going back to my dreamspace

Leaving it all behind

Soon the things will be alright

When I get there



Am I safe in here

Nothing left to fear

I will close my eyes

And float away with stream



Wandering here in this

Eternal darkness

No sign of light anywhere

I am going insane

Now I am leaving this life

No hope left, I want to die







9. Reign Of Terror 3.29

Music & Words : Tolkki



What the hell is going on?

Ski jumpers making music that sells gold

There's no talent in this game

Hunting, hunting for the fame

Publicity is all you need

That's why it feels to me like

Reign of terror

Reign of terror



Everything costs so much nowadays

And individuals vanish in the haze

Entertainment for the masses

Saving, saving your own asses

Rats are leaving sinking ship

Still it feels to me like

Reign of terror



What the hell is going on?

Everything is upside down

Hunting, hunting for the fame

Terror, terror everywhere







10. Thin Ice 4.23

Music : Tolkki

Words : Lassila



I'm walking on a thin ice

Lying paralyzed

Staying there all alone

Reaching for the unknown



In the mirror I see despair

In the closet I smell death

There's needles in my bed

I've finally lost my head







11. Atlantis 1.08

Music : Tolkki



Instrumental







12. Abyss 4.59

Music : Tolkki

Words : Lassila



I'm out on the open sea

The wind is embracing me

I'm watching the setting sun

Far far away from you

There's not much that I could do

Do you know what's the only way for me



Into the depths I fall

Into the unknown darkness I go



Down, down, down

Down, down, down

Falling into the abyss



A morning of no recall

No memory, nothing at all

The sun is blinding my eyes

The pain I feel in my head

I think I'll go back to bed

Or should I have just one more



Into the depths I fall

Into the unknown darkness I go



Down down down

Down down down

Falling into the abyss







13. Shattered 3.30

Music : Tolkki

Words : Lassila



I worked so hard

To get my aim

Pulled out wrong card

Is this my last game

Too fast too soon

You know it takes time

Hasty deeds spoilt

The chances of mine



I'm burning inside

Outside seems allright

Try not to think about it much

It's hard to say when I will play again



Shattered, shattered

My hands are shattered, shattered

Shattered, shattered

My life is shattered



I'm dressed to kill

And ready to score

3rd pain pill

And there's pain no more

I can't break out

Out of these walls

Walls that sometimes

The skull is called



I'm burning inside

Outside seems allright

Try not to think about it much

It's hard to say when I will play again



Shattered, shattered

My hands are shattered, shattered

Shattered, shattered

Inside I'm shattered
