Hammerfall - Threshold (2006) by Hammerfall (보컬) on maniadb.com

There are clouds on the horizon
Shifting colours, heavy rain
High above the roaring thunder
Shooting bullets through your brain

There's something wicked left behind
A baleful sight, a coming
A sinister state of your minds

Behold the skies, the port of heaven
Take the stairway down to hell
The gate is open, lift the curse
We set aside our dreams and visions
We are one we will unite
At the Threshold of the universe we will rise

Late at night they heard the sirens
From a place so far away
Allied forces, mighty brethren
In a vesture of decay

They are the legions of the night
Turning darkness into...
Turning the dark into light

Behold the skies, the port of heaven
Take the stairway down to hell
The gate is open, lift the curse
We set aside our dreams and visions
We are one we will unite
At the Threshold of the universe

Solo: Stefan

Behold the skies, the port of heaven
Take the stairway down to hell
The gate is open, lift the curse
We set aside our dreams and visions
We are one we will unite
At the Threshold of the universe

Fire burns! Fire burns! Fire burns!

You danced with the devil,
Now your soul is bruised and scarred.
There ain't no pride and dignity:
We've been down the rusty boulevard.
You lived your life,
Thought you'd be immortalized.
The moral of your story:
What goes up must come back down.

Fire burns!
The fire burns forever.
Fire burns!
The fire burns forever more.

A moment of silence
Just before you hit the stage:
This is your day of reckoning
To pay back all the dues and turn the page.
You hit rock bottom
And you stood the count to ten.
Came back to harvest glory,
Now your star will shine again.

Fire burns!
The fire burns forever.
Fire burns!
The fire burns forever more.

Fire burns!
The fire burns forever.
Fire burns!
The fire burns forever more.

'Cause every step,
The light races follow.
'Cause every move we make
Might be our last mistake.

Fire burns!
The fire burns forever.
Fire burns!
The fire burns forever more.

Fire burns!
The fire burns forever.
Fire burns!
The fire burns forever more.

Fire, fire, burn!

A battle with pride and ego.
A journey that started long ago.
Life time of passion and war.
Rebel Inside.

Legends in our lifetime.
We have our hearts set in the past.
And eyes towards the future.
Rebel Inside.

The thunder 5 are riding once again.
Hell bent on blazing our own trail.
To seek out fortune and the fame.
We're warriors, warriors.

We're sick and tired of trying to explain.
That it's a life it's not a game.
The need to be will never wane.
We're warriors, warriors.

Rebel Inside, rebel for life.
Rebel Inside.

We'll never bend or bow we'll be
Always unbroken can't you see
We deal in steel and liberty.
We're immortalized, immortalized.

Realize it's not just how we are.
It's in our blood to seek the stars.
The crimson red will take us far.
We're immortalized, immortalized.

Rebel Inside, rebel for life.
Rebel Inside.

Last night I had a vivid dream,
I found a place where nothing's what it seems,
I'm bound to walk this earth alone,
I am a hunter and the heir to the throne,

The chase of blood and sweet revenge,
It keeps on hammering in my head,
The urge to kill is getting stronger,
I'm south of heaven, north of hell,
My final place to dwell,

Surrender your soul,
Surrender your pride,
Please enter my dream,
Find your natural high,
Have nothing to fear,
Cause your rebirth is near,

The bat awakens deep inside,
No where to run for my eternal bride,
And when the darkness comes around,
I come alive, cause for your sweet blood I am bound,

I taste your blood so bitter sweet,
Come ease my pain get on your knees,
You know true love is meant to be,
Forever is now what it seems,
This is your final scream,

Surrender your soul,
Surrender your pride,
Please enter my dream,
Find your natural high,
Got nothing to fear,
Cause your rebirth is near,

So you are born again,
On a far higher plane,
In my dark neverland you're part of the game,
Forever we are, forever we'll be,
We're forever free,

(Solo: Stephan)
(Solo: Oscar)

Surrender your soul,
Surrender your pride,
Please enter my dream,
Find your natural high,
Have nothing to fear,
Cause your rebirth is near,

It's been a long cold winter, widespread snowfall, raging storms
Caught in winds delusions, of our heart and soul
He came down from the mountains, into our own frozen world
Spoke of revolution, fed us with his words
A sacred man, from the other side
He gave us something to believe in
How could we be so blind?

His right hand gave us freedom, while the other stole the pride
Thought he had the answers, standing by his side
Tales of a world, not so far away
We got entangled in his vows
How could we be so blind?

When the sun and moon unite
Fear Dark Winged messenger, dread his darkened words

[Solo: Stefan]

A graven image shattered, a meltdown of our wonderland
As the sun rised slowly, we tried to understand
A sacred heart, lost prosperity
But we found a way back home
From dusk came clarity

When the sun and moon unite
Fear the Dark Winged messenger, dread his darkened words

When the sun and moon unite
Fear the Dark Winged messenger, dread his darkened words

As I open up my eyes
I see a face I don't recognize
If the mirror tells the truth
Then who the hell am I?
I scan the surface high and low
What arises from above
Everything I can't detect
Not a thing I will neglect

Countdown, I'm coming through
And the vengeance, and the taker
And the one, that shining sun

Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from their graves, to steal our dreams

I see the world in infrared
Hear the voices of the dead
I'm half man and half machine
The essence of your dream
Soon the judgment bell will toll
We'll take back everything they stole
I'm the judge, the hammer fall
Liberty and metal for all

Countdown, your time has come
And the vengeance, you're in danger
You're the one, let justice be done

Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from their graves, to steal our vivid dreams

In my heart there is always winter
Can not rest until I found the master key
The master key of trust
In my mind the arctic wind blows
Can not sleep I can not rest before the dawn brings back the light
Light of day

[Solo: Stefan]

Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from their graves, to steal our vivid dreams

There's silence, in the dark
There's the fire, ready to start
Stone pages, inked by fury
The exception of the damned

They are calling, out my name
Come join us and carry the flame
Our precious time, is standing still
When the future meets the past

No freedom, no glory
There's no future, no past

This will be our one last wish, one last dream
When you follow the masses, or follow your own
One last chance, one last dream
Before your future will be, Carved In Stone

I remember, what they said
I still hear them, inside me head
The legions of damnation
They keep calling out my name

The wind blows, forever
But the time standing still

This will be our one last wish, one last dream
When you follow the masses, or follow your own
One last chance, one last dream
Before your future will be, Carved In Stone

Knock, knock on my door
Please revoke what you're asking for

One last wish, one last dream
When you follow the masses, or follow your own
One last chance, one last dream
Before your future will be...

One last wish, one last dream (Carved In Stone)
When you follow the masses, or follow your own
One last chance, one last dream (Carved In Stone)
Before your future will be, Carved In Stone

Once, there was a time when we were standing back
To back against the whole conception
Once, we had it all, the world was a precious home
Times were changing fast, our dreams were fading black
The darkness fell on our creation
Time was running out, we were falling one by one

We live by honor, we fight for freedom, we die but you can't slay our pride

Behind these walls we deem, take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal Genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate,
Genocide!

Fall, mighty Babylon your might is declining fast
You're on your knees, repent your sinning
Far, beyond the realms of hell we are born again

We live by honor, we fight for freedom, we die but you can't slay our pride

Behind these walls we deem, take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal Genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate,
Genocide!

[Solo:Stefan]

Behind these walls we deem, take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal Genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate

Behind these walls we deem, take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal Genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate,
Genocide!

The gate is closed, the sky is burning
Dark clouds are closing in
A world at war, no revelation could help predict a mankind fall
Somewhere above, the unpolluted skies, we'll be resurrected
What have we done? We paid the highest price
No shelter for the undeserving masses

Standing in line for a final journey
Into space and beyond
A final sigh, a breath of hope we gather, heed the eternal call
Counting the stars, we pull the shortest straw, life is fading rapidly
Nothing remains, a withered devil's claw
Soul survivors picking up the pieces

Titan
Even the dark has a silver lining
Titan
Shining bright so far beyond the sun

So this is a new beginning
So far away, so far away

We leave the past behind us
No turning back, no turning back

Titan
Even the dark has a silver lining
Titan, Titan
Shining bright so far beyond the sun
Titan
Even the dark has a silver lining
Titan, Titan
Shining bright so far beyond the sun

We will fly
We're flying into space
Fly, fly away
We're flying into space
