1. Unholy Rites

the darkness comes but slowly the night
is still too young midnight ain't that far
away summon everyone hooded men of evil
pay tribute to his name can you hear us,
are you with us and the devil is to blame

they're crying out in ecstasy
save our souls from tonight and into infinity

unholy rites! what will become of us
unholy rites! what have they done
unholy rites! you know there's no place
left to run

i'm trapped within a nightmare there's
nothing i can do darkness is surrounding
me help me to pull through save me from
the evil that's raging land and sea can
you hear me, are you with me lord i'm
striving to break free

they're crying out in ecstasy save our souls
from tonight and into infinity

unholy rites! what will become of us
unholy rites! what have they done
unholy rites! you know there's no place
left to run

2. The Edge Of Sanity

they call me insane i'm not to blame
falling apart into pieces if you'd open
your eyes you could see through the lies
bloodsucking leeches to you it's a game
bent down in shame calling me names
without reason if i'd open my eyes i could
see the disguise got nowhere to run

on the edge of sanity the final fight has
begun at the edge of sanity, i'm lost!

and now i'm insane bent out of frame
holding a gun to my brain if i pull it i'm
done just a mind-twisted son riding a
freighttrain i stand all alone king
without a throne ruler of mindless
confusion screaming into the void it's my
future destroyed got nowhere to run

on the edge of sanity the final fight has
begun at the edge of sanity, i'm lost!
on the edge of sanity i turn my face from
the sun at the edge of sanity, i'm lost!

they call me insane i'm not to blame
falling apart into pieces if i'd open
my eyes i could see the disguise got nowhere to run

3. Fall From Grace

we had no warning, now it's too late
the earth is trembling, is this our fate how
long will it take? before all is lost lost,
there's no mistake shall every angel fall
we watch them turn into flames

into the heat, out of the night no end is
yet in sight could it be? it's the end of all light

i see them falling all around me
scorched by the fire, wings are burning

into the heat, out of the night no end is
yet in sight could it be? it's the end of all light

to heaven i gaze the angels are
descending and now as they fall from
grace we pray and start repenting the
heaven i face in awe, they are descending
and now as they fall from grace we pray

and start repenting i hear the people chanting his name
without hope, within the dark no one else to blame all
we feel is fear and shame

4. Drowning

icy water pulls me down, surrounding me
drifting with the gentle stream,
embracing me too weary to reach the surface

a soldier of fortune bearing arms
without belief he's been under fire and
has never felt no grief pride and glory
the innocent dying for pride and glory

i hear them beg for mercy the terrifying
screams i hear them echo in my mind, cryin'

i'm drowning slowly inside the dream
i choke on the water drowning slow and
i see the visions of slaughter

awake in a cold sweat haunted by the
things he saw the silhouettes dancing
on the bedroom paperwall hell and fire
the yesterday victims it's hell and fire

i hear them beg for mercy the terrifying
screams i hear them echo in my mind, cryin'

i'm drowning slowly inside the dream
i choke on the water drowning slow and
i see the visions of slaughter

the hero in shadows for the gold he
sells his soul to fight for the honor
every mercenary's goal pride and glory
the innocent dying for pride and glory

5. Remembrance

i guess i always knew my days were
numbered i guess i'm just a fool who
lingers on sometimes i hoped to lead
another not fade away like a sunset
dying out

through all these years never been
a doubt or a maybe there is nothing that
i regret now and i never will right `til the end

i never knew although i wondered i never
realized the day would come sometimes
my heart is filled with sorrow to fade
away like a sunset dying out

through all these years never been
a doubt or a maybe there is nothing that
i regret now and i never will right `til the end

i remember i remember all that was
surrender i remember i remember all that was surrender

6. The Day The Earth Caught Fire

the day the earth caught fire we stood
outside the world was laughing and
in the city square they cast umbrellas
to the sky the sun above my head
was burning greedy red the horns began
to blow "three cheers for jericho"

the first evacuee i was headed
for the sea ,i saw them the roadside refugees
the boys with bloody knees who waved
abandoned cars that lay too tired
to drive away "a world in flames today"
was all the papers had to say

run for your life the earth's caught fire
run for your life the earth's caught fire
run run run run for your life the earth's
on fire run for your life the earth's
on fire run run run

the streetcar prophet said "you thought
that god was dead-i warned you" the sinners
and the saved they fell down to their knees
and prayed believers held their breath
and stoned a witch to death the leaders
and the led said "blow the bloody reds away!"

run for your life the earth's caught fire
run for your life the earth's caught fire
run run run run for your life
the earth's on fire run for your life
the earth's on fire run run run

7. A Hole Of Black

in the dark i see everything is so much
clearer when i go through the door and i step
into a world for man unknown you can't
hold me back cuz there is something new unseen before

i've found what i want, it's true! and i'm
never coming back there's nothing that
you can do! going through a hole of black

as far as i can see in the misty haze before
me a white and shiny light i can feel it
piercing through my armoured suite
don't you hold me back i'll see you
somewhere else, another world

8. A Touch Of Evil

[Written by Judas Priest]

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
