White bolts of lightning
Came out of nowhere
Blinded the darkness
Creating the storm
War in the heavens
Vengeance ignited
torment and tempest
attacks like a swarm
Forged out of flame from chaos to destiny
Bringer of pain forever undying
Judas is Rising
Eternal betrayer
ice cold and evil
Taking no prisoners
dark prince of the world (?)
Humanity trembles
enslaving you sinners (?)
You can't beg for mercy
For none will be saved
The burden of shame (?)
Echos the prophecy
Ascending from Hell
Forever despising
Judas is Rising
Apprentice revealed (?)
Deceivers are crying (?)
My crucified steel
Evangelizing
Judas is Rising
Judas is Rising
. . .

Here they come
These gods of steel
Megatron
Devouring what's concealed
Speed of death
Crossfired they stare
Final breath
From vaporizing glares
Raised to man oppressed
Sign of persecution
Hellrider
Roars on through the night
Hellrider
Raised for the fight
All incensed to overthrow
Strong defence
With armaments they grow
By this quest
Their fates renowned
Put to rest
Abominations crown
Time to ram it down
Judgement for the tyrant
Hellrider
Roars on through the night
Hellrider
Raised for the fight
Fight undying and eternal
Wheels bring death and pain infernal
Honour bound in strenght repleted
To no end they're undefeated
Hellrider, hellrider
You fought their battle for them
Hellrider, hellrider
You brought them through their despair
Hellrider, hellrider
Your tempered steel relinquished
Hellrider, hellrider
You slaught them all extinguished
Wrath of doom
In killing fields
They consume
For valiants never yield
Triumph to the gods
Vanquished of enslavers
Hellrider
Breaking their will
Hellrider
In for the kill
Hellrider, hellrider
You fought their battle for them
Hellrider, hellrider
You brought them through it all
Hellrider

Storm warning
But there's no fear
Lies forming
The sacrament lays bare
The sinner
Will testify
They'll suffer
When sacrificed on high
The burning sermons purge their evil words
Between the Hammer and the Anvil
Force rises
False rituals
Baptises
The body and the soul
Our union
Their fall from grace
Confession (confess your sins)
Will seal them to their fate
The burning sermons will survive their curse
Between the Hammer and the Anvil
Transgression
They prey on grief
Our mission
To purify belief
This altar
Gives power and light
They'll falter
While we are shining bright
The burning sermons consecrate their sin
Between the Hammer and the Anvil
Storm warning
But there's no fear
. . .

Shooting for the stars
Cruise the speed of light.
Glowin' god of Mars
Body burning bright.
Well I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind
Yes I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind.
Tearing up through life
Million miles an hour
Blinding all in sight
Surging rush of power.
Thunderbolt from hell
Shattering aloud.
Screamin' demons yell
Bursting through the clouds.
. . .

I will take your final breath
And I will be your last regret
Cold blood - Runs in my blackened heart
Tearing - every soul apart
Messenger of death - weild the scythe
Of man's Demnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination
Sin - Is what I Feast upon
I'm forging my crematorium
Your tomb - Is waiting here for you
Welcome to my ritual
Messenger of death - weild the scythe
Of man's Demnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination
Death rides out from the storm
Deface humanity
There's no escape from this
Human calamity
Death rides out from the storm
We turn to god and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky
Death rides out from the storm
No time left to repent
No quarter - No escape
No line of self defence
Death rides out from the storm
In terror we confess
Our voice is heard no more
His deed is merciless
Death rides out from the storm
Deface humanity
There's no escape from this
Human calamity
Death rides out from the storm
We turn to god and cry
Ignored we turn to face
This vengeance from the sky
Messenger of death - weild the scythe
Of man's Demnation
Messenger of death - holds his blade
For termination
. . .

He had enough
He couldn't take anymore
He'd found a place
In his mind and slammed the door
No matter how they tried
They couldn't understand
They washed and dressed him
Fed him by hand
Yeah! I've left the world behind
I am safe here in my mind
I'm Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you
Withdrawn he'd sit there
Stare blank into space
No sign of life
Did flicker on his face
Until one day he smiled
It seemed as though with pride
The wind kissed him
Goodbye - and then he died
Yeah! I've left the world behind
I'm safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you
Keep the world with all its sin
It's not fit for livin' in
Yeah! I will start again
It can take forever, and ever, and ever
And ever, but I'll still win.
SOLO (Glenn)
How many like him
Are there still
Who to us all
Seem to have lost the will
They lie in thousands
Lank and lost
Is nothing worth this bitter cost
Yeah! I've left the world behind
I'm safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
I'll decide not you
Keep the world with all its sin
It's not fit for livin' in
SOLO (K.K.)
Beoynd the realms of death.

[Tipton/Halford/Downing]
Grand canyons of space and time universal
My mind is subjected to all
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
Hooks to my brain are well in
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
I know what I am, I'm Berlin
Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal
I face the impregnable wall
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
Hooks to my brain are well in
Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl!
I know what I am, I'm Berlin
Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending
Until I give out my last breath
I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling
Hooks to my brain are well in
I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling
I know what I am, I'm Berlin
. . .

You mesmerise slowly
Till I can't believe my eyes
Ecstasy controls me
What you give just serves me right
Without warning you're here
Like magic you appear
I taste the fear
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
In the night
Come to me
You know I want your Touch of Evil
In the night
Please set me free
I can't resist a Touch of Evil
Aroused with desire
You put me in a trance
A vision of fire
I never had a chance
A dark angel of sin
Preying deep from within
Come take me in
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
In the night
Come to me
You know I want your Touch of Evil
In the night
Please set me free
I can't resist a Touch of Evil
Arousing me now with a sense of desire
Possessing my soul till my body's on fire
A dark angel of sin
Preying deep from within
Come take me in
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
You're possessing me
. . .

Wrapped tight around me
Like a second flesh hot skin gling my body
As the ecstasy begins
Your wild vibrations
Got me shooting from the hip
Crazed and insatiable let rip
Eat me alive
Sounds like on animal panting to the bear
Groan in the pleasure zone gasping from the heat
Gut-wrenching frenzy that deranges every joint
I'm gonna force you at gun point
To eat me alive
Bound to deliver as you give and I collect
Squealing in passion as the rod steel injects
Lunge to the maximum
Spread-eagled to the wall
You're well equipped to take it all
So eat me alive
. . .

I am the darkness
Born out of light
I am the force the fire
That burns here tonight
Bringing the future
to all mankind
Guider of life - of death
The sight for the blind
Your future lies within my eyes
What I Predict will terrify
I can't control what comes to be
From the past to the present to eternity
I am Nostradamus
Do you believe
I am Nostradamus
That I Concieve
Master of chaos
Anger and rage
I hold the key
My presence will unlock the cage
I am your witness
The one who can tell
Bearing the Sword - the shield
To your heaven from hell
As I unfold the mystery
I change the course of history
With premonitions from the void
Will you life, will you die
Will your worlds collide
I am Nostradamus
The hand of fate
I am Nostradamus
With love and hate
Lost in this vortex
The mystery begins
Will you be victim
Saved from your sins
Time is illusion
Trapped in the skies
Destinys calling
Hear from my eyes
(Many years ago a boy was born
A boy with the gift
A gift that would be the envy of all mankind
To see what no other could - great visions
of the future
Or would a curse be bestowed on the boy
The boy whose name was Nostradamus.
Damus, Damus, Damus, Damus, Damus)
I am Nostradamus
Do not forsake
I am Nostradamus
Your life's at stake
I am Nostradamus
The lightning rod
I am Nostradamus
The voice of god
Celestial comets
Reign towards earth
Alchemy's tempest
Predicting your worth
Pray for deliverance
Escape if you can
For I have borne witness
To the purging of man
. . .

Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He's half man and half machine
Rides the Metal Monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds of thunder
Blasting bolts fo steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind ressurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller

You said i could never find a way to ease your mind
but where i go, you wind up in the dust
i tried so hard to have you reach another side of me
instead you went to nowhere and forgot
so i wander on asking where you might have gone
from what i knew before, some things are worth fighting for
desert heat can wear you down
but still i'm rolling through
did i see your figure in the haze?
i am driven by a thirst to quench myself of love
the sun beats on me for the price i pay
so i wander on asking where you might have gone
from what i knew before, some things are worth fighting for
Night road leads me to a town because
i'm beckoned by the glow of kerosine and tumbleweed
They're calling out, forevermore worth fighting for
i'm leaning in the wind
head bowed down from what i saw
my shadow for a friend
so somethings are worth fighting for
so i'm moving on, asking where you might have gone
from what i knew before, some things are worth fighting for - yeah
. . .

Forged in the black country
Under blood red skies
We all had our dream to realise
Driving in that transit
Down to Holy Joe's
Used to lose our head
While metal flowed
Nothing held us back or dared to try
Something in our blood
Won't let us die
We built our world of metal
Watched it grow
Fuelled the fury solid to the bone
Gotta deal with the devil
'Cause you know that it's real
Done a deal with the devil
From a heart made of steel
Rollin' down the m-way
Took it to the smoke
Bangin' heads there
'Til we all went broke
When we don the leather
And the whips and chains
Nothing matters more
We can't be tamed
Fighting through the din and accolades
Turn the phase around with razor blades
Watched the movement grow
Into one voice
Took on all the world
It had no choice
. . .

There I was completely wasting
Out of work and down
All inside it's so frustrating
As I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares
If I live or die
So I might as well begin
To put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law (X4)
So much for the golden future
I can't even start
I've had every promise broken
And there's anger in my heart
You don't know what it's like
You don't have a clue
If you did you'd find yourselves
Doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law (X4)
You don't know what it's like
Breaking the law, breaking the law (X8)
