Cry for Freedom

White Lion - Cry For Freedom

The fire is burning
We lay our weapons down to rest
This war ain't over
'Til all the people will be free

Straight from our hearts we cry
This war has stolen too many lives
Cause for the sake of freedom we
Will die
Our songs will carry on

Oh lord we try, we try
To keep our dream alive
And voices will be heard
All around the world

So stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive
Yeah, stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive

Our brothers in prison
But no crime was ever done
I call it racism
Ashamed I face my fellow man

The children are taken away
And families destroyed
And millions have died from starvation
We can't go on this way

Oh lord we pray, we pray
That maybe soon someday
The world will smile again
And they shall be released

So stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive
Yeah, stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive

So stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive
Yeah, stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive

So stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive
Yeah, stand up and cry for freedom
And keep our dream alive

So stand up and cry for freedom
And keep the dream alive
Yeah, stand up and cry for freedom
And let 'em know that we are here

Oh no, we can't go on this way
And we will never give up
Fighting for freedom
Yeah, and we will keep this dream alive

Song for Mountains

Les Discrets - Song for Mountains

J'ai rêvé de grands paysages verts et d'un soleil perçant les nuages,

D'une eau pure et étincellante, de lodeur des bois et de la terre.

Chaque hiver, j'espère qu'en disparaissant, la neige me dévoilera ton vrai visage.

Vois-tu ces bocs gris?

Ce sont les nouveaux rochers,

Il n'y pousse pas de mousse.

Vois-tu ces grands bâtons droits?

Ce sont les nouveaux arbres.

Vois-tu ces grands batons droits?

Ce sont leurs nouvelles armes.

The girl with the Golden Earring

Golden Earring - Nomad

Gone, with the northern sun
'Cross that far horizon
World of a thousand faces
I can't find my oases
There's a black ice in the sky
And wells are runnin' dry
Doomed to voyage till life's end
Load up, strike campaign
Gone, along the highway ribbons
Past city dwellings

I can see how far they are
From the stickers on their cars
But I'm a nomad
Can't look far ahead
It's a voyage till life's end
Load up, strike campaign
Doomed to travel till life's end
Load up
Yeah I've seen you down below
From my hotel window
On the run, Star Trek's on
We've got a dream in common
We've got a dream in common
We've got a dream

Temple of the King

Rainbow - The Temple of the King

One day in the year of the fox
Came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell

One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to ring
Meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king

There in the middle of the circle he stands
Searching, seeking
With just one touch of his trembling hand
The answer will be found

Daylight waits while the old man sings
Heaven help me
And then like the rush of a thousand wings
It shines upon the one
And the day had just begun

One day in the year of the fox came a time remembered well
When the strong young man of the rising sun
Heard the tolling of the great black bell

One day in the year of the fox
When the bell began to sing
It meant the time had cometh for one to go
To the temple of the king

There in the middle of the people he stands
Seeing, feeling
With just a wave of a strong right hand
He's gone
To the temple of the king

Far from the circle at the edge of the world
He's hoping, wondering
Thinking back from the stories he's heard
Of what he's going to see

There in middle of the circle it lies
Heaven help me
Then all could see by the shine in his eyes
The answer had been found

Back with the people in the circle he stands
Giving, feeling
With just one touch of a strong right hand
They know
Of the temple and the king

War for Sale

Shadow Gallery - War for Sale

Time came to leave 
You know there's something 
About the principle 
Of what goes on behind the scenes 
The military machine 
The way they led me on... 
Stiletto in the sand 
Thrusted down in anger 
Bloody to the handle 
Diamond red 
Machines of mass destruction 
Well I helped to design them 
The guilt of children's blood stains on my hands 

The word from the board room 
Our boys in Tehran have scored 

How long till we realize the truth? 
The bottom line of defense and world security 
The bankers and the ministry of arms 
Just cut the deal and the war is on 
The village burned the desert set ablaze 
Who are these men with their finger's in everybody's pie? 
Big rockets and their profiles all the rage 
Their business plan calls for ware for sale 

Please understand 
Until I saw all this 
I never thought about the third world trampled under wheels 
Out in the streets and in the fields 
I simply questioned it all... 
Stiletto in the sand 
Fingers on the triggers 
Tempers boiling over 
Bleed them red 

Machines of mass destruction 
Oh why did I design them? 
The guilt of children's blood stains on my hands 

Napalm and land mines 
Nobody left alive 

How long 'til we realize the truth? 
The bottom line of defense and world security 
the banker's and the ministry of arms 
Just cut the deal and the war is on 
The market screams a recommended buy 
The contract's in don't just sit there get your broker on the line 
Big money left their morals far behind 
Guess what we've got - we got war for sale 

How long 'til we realize the truth? 
The bottom line of defense and world security 
the banker's and the ministry of arms 
Just cut the deal and the war is on 
The village burned the desert set ablaze 
Who are these men with their finger's in everybody's pie? 
Then freedom's ring departed from today 
There's just no doubt - we got war for sale!

Runaway

Bon Jovi - Runaway

On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint
A touch of sable in their eyes

All your life all you asked
When is your Daddy gonna talk to you
But we're living in another world
Tryin' to get your message through

No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going around your head

Oh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway

A different line every night
Guaranteed to blow your mind
See you out on the streets
Call me for a wild time
So you sit home alone
'Cause there's nothing left that you can do
There's only pictures hung in the shadows
Left there to look at you

You know she likes the lights
At night on the neon Broadway signs
And she don't really mind
Its only love she hoped to find

Oh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway

No one heard a single word you said
They should have seen it in your eyes
What was going on your head

Oh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast
All those things he couldn't say
Ooh, she's a little runaway

Rainbow Demon

Uriah Heep - Rainbow Demon

There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire

Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day

Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun

Protect and Survive

Jethro Tull - Protect and Survive (instrumental) 

2 Minutes to Midnight

Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes to Midnight

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason
The Golden Goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death

The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore

Two minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb

The blind men shout "let the creatures out
We'll show the unbelievers"
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time Belsen feast, yeah!
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies

The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore

Two minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb

The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun

The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
don't you pray for my soul anymore

Two minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb

Midnight
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night
Midnight
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night
Midnight, all night

Flight of Icarus

Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus

As the sun breaks, above the ground,
An old man stands on the hill,
As the ground warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still.

His eyes are ablaze,
See the madman in his gaze.

Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly and touch the sun.

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God my father I fly.

His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream,
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave.

Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,

On your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun.

Revelations

Iron Maiden - Revelations

"O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
But take away our pride."
(G. K. Chesterton English Hymnal)

Just a babe in the black abyss,
No reason for a place like this,
The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain,
An easy way for the blind to go,
A clever path for the fools who know
the Secret of the Hanged Man-the smile on his lips.
The light of the Blind-you'll see,
The venom that tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening-you'll see.

She came to me with a serpent's kiss,
As the Eye of the Sun Rose on her lips,
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry,
So we lay in the black embrace,
And the Seed is sown in a holy place
And I watched, and I waited for the dawn.

The light of the Blind-you'll see,
The venom that tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening-you'll see.

Bind all of us together,
Ablaze with Hope and Free,
No storm or heavy weather
Will rock the boat you'll see.
The time has come to close your eyes
And still the wind and rain,
For the one who will be King
Is the Watcher in the Ring,
It is You
It is You
