Divine Invitation lyrics by Altaria

1. Fire & Ice

Like a whirlwind of neon through empty streets The crusader forever races A message he brings to the chosen one On the wings of a fire-spitting dragon Remember his name you´ll hear it again As the clouds of the tempest gather From the skies he´ll return with the speed of light And the sword of vengeance higher See the calm before the storm Fire and ice Sleeping visions come to life again Fire and ice Out of the night Nation by nation he´ll conquer the world A warrior shows no mercy From the arctic cold to the tropical night Far and wide goes the glourious journey

2. Unchain The Rain

We tread these paths of light so long I´m right beside you just like thousand times before I´m knocked at agony, I face a tragedy That feeling, deceiving, that burning your soul My kingdom come, my will be done So join me fallen one We´ll drown our sorrow to this endless sea Together we´ll unchain the rain Escape the world into our sanctuary There in my arms you´ll be free Your guilt I will justify I´ll make you mine To have, to hold and embrace A spark of mystery The dark discovery In your laws my greatest victory Closer a part, to offer hearts Let us share the stars Drown your sorrow to my endless sea Together we´ll unchain the rain Escape the light into our sanctuary There in my arms you´ll be free So may times we have been fallen So many times I´ve heard you swearing that we´re through As many times you have come crawling Cause no-one else can ease your pain the way I do We´ll drown our sorrow to this endless sea Together we´ll unchain the rain Escape the light into our sanctuary There in my arms you´ll be free We´ll drown our sorrow to this endless sea Together we´ll unchain the rain And share our secret night-time fantasy Together in forever sleep

3. Darkened Highlight

How he was a howling in the forest of moonlight, The fallen hero looking for the reason to some lies. And the lightning sets the universe a flame. At the rainbows end we find, The treasure of our dreams. The soul survivor getting closer to the secret, I´m thinking ´Hey, to live forever more!´ Fading lights remind me of the misery, And the darkened highlight. They disguise with all the ancient mystery, And the darkened highlight finds a way to shine. Tortured souls are calling, From the dungeons of the night. A dreamer realised to late, The race is just begun. And the thunder warns the earth the rain awaits. Destination, no-one knows, But a voice inside screams ´Go!´ Pack your bags and leave again, The altereds calling out, To live forever more. Fading lights remind me of the misery, And the darkened highlight. They disguise with all the ancient mystery, And the darkened highlight finds a way to shine. Face of evil laughing at the destiny, Of the darkened highlight. While the night gives birth to dreadful fantasies. And the darkened highlight finds a way to shine, Finds a way to shine. [Solo] Fading lights remind me of the misery, And the darkened highlight. They disguise with all the ancient mystery, And the darkened highlight finds a way to shine. Face of evil laughing at the destiny, Of the darkened highlight. While the night gives birth to dreadful fantasies, And the darkened highlight finds a way to shine.

4. History Of Times To Come

Dreaming of a different light And the people feed the fire An experiment that failed Created virtual royalblood Facing the enemy A new kind of war where the Only ones to carry on Are made of stone cold steel Iron claws of terror Penetrate our hearts Mankind invented evil Then set it free History of times to come Where´s the paradise? Guardians of night still call From the other side Pull the plug! You say and the hero saves the day When nightmares and reality Unite and become one A brainwashed society Where the leaders cannot see The visions of an alien Until all dreams are gone Iron claws of terror Infiltrate our minds Mandkind brought out the evil And now you see... Soldiers without face invade The temple of mankind

5. Try To Remember

Another young and restless soul, Trapped in a world of shattered dreams. Craving for a shelter to stay warm, But there is no-one there for me. Chains of the past still hold me down, Though my heart wants to break free. I tried to hold on to that dream, That once again will slip away. Feels like I´m drowning in tears, Drifting away with the stream. I hear them calling my name, I´m fading away. Send me down an angel (Down an angel) From the heavens above the earth. And I try to remember (Try to remember) How this life under dark skies used to be. Beyond the solid walls of stone, The fields of green so wide. Climbing a stairway made of stars, Leaving the sorrows far behind. Feels like I´m drowning in tears, Drifting away with the stream. I hear them calling my name, I´m fading away. Send me down an angel (Down an angel) From the heavens above the earth. And I try to remember (Try to remember) How this life under dark skies. Send me down an angel (Down an angel) From the heavens above the earth. And I try to remember (Try to remember) How this life under dark skies used to be. [Solo] Send me down an angel (Down an angel) From the heavens above the earth. And I try to remember (Try to remember) How this life under dark skies. Send me down an angel (Down an angel) From the heavens above the earth. And I try to remember (Try to remember) How this life under dark skies used to be.

6. Unicorn

Remember that what you give Is what you get returned And the ancient legend Repeats itself once more More and more you want Nothing else will do And the fairytale Goes on and on and on We will haunt you forever We will find you wherever Wherever you may go The gates of hell call all the pagans Chosen by the universe With power of a rising legion Fronted by the unicorn One last lime - eye to eye Disciples and lonely hearts They roam the city streets While soldiers fall In battles faraway Wait just a little while The walls come tumbling down A house of cards won´t stand On shaky ground Unbelievers fear the symbol Created by the universe And sacred thoughts manipulating Children of the Unicorn

7. Prophet Of Pestilence

´You ask me if I have a God complex? Let me tell you something; I am God.´ From out of nowhere, Like a new born child he comes. With wisdom greater than the world. Some need to be lone, So that we will follow. This force messiah made of lights, He says ´Come with me, into eternity, Share a thing with me.´ Prophet of Pestilence. Holding on, to the sounds of the weak without, Forces of tyranny, in the night, In the dreams he will rise right on. The angels calling, With burning eyes of lust. And they will fall down on their knees. The sign of the cross, gives him power, To manipulate the holy ones. He says ´Ride the sky, into oblivion, Leave all you heard behind!´ Prophet of Pestilence. Holding on, to the sounds of the weak without, Forces of tyranny, in the night, In the dreams he will rise right on. Prophet of Pestilence. A disease, in the railway with no-one. Around and around they go, Carousel, of emotions and thoughts betrayed. [Solo] Prophet of Pestilence. Holding on, to the sounds of the weak without, Forces of tyranny, in the night, In the dreams he will rise right on. Prophet of Pestilence. A disease, in the railway with no-one. Around and around they go, Carousel, of emotions and thoughts betrayed. Without warning, he´s gone.

8. Ravenwing

Over the mountains across the sea, Come the men of eternal night. Hooded disciples of misery, Leading the evil crusade. Through forests of darkness in faraway lands, Obeying the spell of the priest. With hearts made of iron and bullets of steel, Delievering goods to be seen. Winds of winter still blow, Through the trees. Wounded warriors fall, On their knees. Before the ravenwing, Faces from the past return with dreams. Rise ravenwing, High above the holy battlefield. Beyond the rainbow in no mans land, Where armies prepare for the fight. The chains of a savage from caves in the north, Break as the dawn fades to black. Chaos and mayhem in wastelands of hate, And storms turning cities to dust. The men of the night standing by for the pain, With fear in the hearts of the damned. Winds of winter still blow, Through the trees. Wounded warriors fall, On their knees. Before the ravenwing, Faces from the past return with dreams. Rise ravenwing, High above the holy battlefield. Ravenwing! Faces from the past return with dreams. Rise ravenwing, High above the holy battlefield. And into the stargate we raised, On a solid foundation. [Solo] Before the ravenwing, Faces from the past return with dreams. Rise ravenwing, High above the holy battlefield. Ravenwing! Faces from the past return with dreams. Rise ravenwing, High above the holy battlefield. Ravenwing!

9. Innocent

Look deeper into your eyes And tell me what you see Misty dreams and false illusions In a darkened sea of tears Find the meaning and carry on Just let the hate surface Live the dream of fame and fortune Annihilate the fears Vengeance is yours to demand Though destiny is our of your hands Innocent - like a child Heaven sent - lost in time The world crashed down Right before your eyes Look deeper into your eyes And set the demons free Shameful lies and raging evil Haunting souls in need Flames of fire All died one by one

10. Final Warning

I take a look into your tear-filled lying eyes, I see a glimpse of goodness, but the anger holds my mind. I know that you and I, we could have worked things out, But it´s too late by now, we´re at the point of no return. This pilot will crash and burn into the final warning. In the jaws of danger, on a misty morning. And I show no mercy when I call off the warning of love. You made an enemy, Of the one you use to want. And I can turn around, To take you back into my arms. I hear your desperate cry, And I´m almost there again. But it´s too late by now, Cause it seems you´ll never learn. This pilot will crash and burn into the final warning. In the jaws of danger, on a misty morning. And I show no mercy when I call off the warning. It´s the final dawning. When the gates are open, And the tears are falling. Yet I show no mercy when I call off the warning of love, Warning of love. [Solo] Final warning. In the jaws of danger, on a misty morning. And I show no mercy when I call off the warning. It´s the final dawning. When the gates are open, And the tears are falling. Yet I show no mercy when I call off the warning of love, [Fade out] (Final warning) In the jaws of danger, on a misty morning. And I show no mercy when I call off the warning. It´s the final dawning.

11. Keeper Of Mystique

We were young and innocent, Playing with the fire. One sensation. Honour, might. Living in desire. Came to go and come again, Crossing every border. Bless your crimes, day and night. You let temptation lead the way to promise lands. And the flames are burning higher, So take my hand. Just close your eyes, And feel the fire. (Calling your name) Do they see? (Calling your grace) The Keeper of Mystique. You ride the wind, forever free. New memories, day by day, Ashes of the fire. Trying to escape the pain, Heartbreak of a liar. Holding onto what I am, Dreams of lost illusions. I run away into the haze, And let my vengeance lead my way to misery. And the flames are burning higher, My destiny. Just close your eyes, And feel the fire. (Calling your name) Do they see? (Calling your grace) The Keeper of Mystique. You ride the wind, forever free. In the twilight, Nothing´s what it seems. You feed your secrets to, The Keeper of Mystique [Solo] (Calling your name) Do they see? (Calling your grace) My destiny. (Calling your name) Do they see? (Calling your grace) The Keeper of Mystique. Will ride the wind, forever free.

12. Ball & Chain

Gettin´ ready for the takin´, The body´s numb and hands are shakin´. Stand your ground and prepare to fight. We are one with the children of the night. (Break out of your prison) Leave your ball and chain. (Chain to a measure) Leave your ball and chain. The curtains fall to hell´s inferno. The force unleashed, with no tomorrow. Stand your ground and prepare to shout. We are one with the legions of the loud. (Break out of your prison) Leave your ball and chain. (Chain to a measure) Leave your ball and chain. [Solo] (Break out of your prison) Leave your ball and chain. (Chain to a measure) Leave your ball and chain.

15. Kingdom Of The Night (Demo 2001)

I´m closing the door behind me With an image of you before my eyes Taking the road to nowhere Heading for distant neon lights I´m leaving the lies behind me Now that my broken wings are healed Returning with signs of danger Fighting for pride and glory Yesterday´s gone Miles dividing So many years have passed my friend The road back home remains In the kingdom of the night I´m racing the streets of freedom In a world where power rules the mind Invading the heart of millions Building a brave new nation The roses have thorns Like eyes of fire So many tears we cried my friend The dreams of youth remain

16. Unicorn (Demo 2002)

18. Immortal Disorder (Demo 2002)

Listen up, listen to me Hear my warning Look around, rise and feel Another dawning When winds carry pieces of love Play the game but play it safe Stay forever Find a way, march in pain Through this jungle Where winds carry pieces of love In a dream I´m immortal I never gave a thought for tomorrow disorder Yesterday brought me a dark trail of sorrow A life of chaos passes by before my eyes While silent dreams are coming closer, look out! An evil virus took my soul on a rainy night Symbolic thoughts of destiny Immortal, disorder, immortal Feels like I´m slippin´ away to a world of disorder

19. Emerald Eye (Demo 2002)

As the sun sets down in the west Another sleepless night comes her way Working late for the ruler of the street Finding her way trough hard times Trying to make a good life Selling her body to strangers in the night Emerald eye - hold on to the signs of a distant thunder roaring in the sky As the sun rises up in the east Another tyrann adores his world Diamond rings and a monument of gold Born to take over the throne A creature without heart Feeding a violent legacy of lies Emerald eye - hold on to the signs Of a distant thunder roaring in the sky Emerald eye - gaze into the light Hear the distant thunder roaring across the sky
