[Music by Hansen/Sielck; Words by Hansen] [OK... We could make up a weird explanation of how the lyrics fit into the concept. Fact is they just don't! But we liked the particular sound of the words so much, that we decided to keep them like this anyway...] Do you believe in the god with a twisted eye Do you believe in hell and what's below Facing the man with the blade and an evil smile The innocence of madness seems to grow And now you stand and stare and wonder Can you believe in what you see Is there a place beyond the suffering If not for you, there's one for me I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings A hundred years I'm riding on I've seen the madness down below A million miles I'm riding strong My destination is unknown I'm leaving from insanity I don't believe in destiny I'm waiting for my sanctuary If not for you, there?s one for me I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings [Solo] This is the afterlife, it fills me with desire I'm riding high, I ride into the fire I'm high, I ride on Solar Wings I'm riding, ohoo I'm free, I ride on Solar Wings 'cause I'm riding... on... Solar Wings 4. I've Been To Hell [Music by Eckert/Sielck; Words by Sielck] [The almost perfect extinction of the human race during the savior-war has pushed the bio-unit to the edge. In deep depression, driven away from home and in the soli-tude of deep space this poor soul has seen Hell...] I saw my children from up in the sky Bleeding and sentenced to die Devastation and Termination I've been your angel of death Watching unmoved I've been awaiting your final breath Children forgive me For I've been so wrong Fate took revenge On all I have done I've been to Hell I've seen the fires burning Oh, I saw Hell Demons I heard you calling So many years I've been out there alone Broken and scared to the bone Out in the dark Sorrow and grief possessed my heart Out of control In this deadly machine Innocent victims Are haunting my dreams I've been to Hell... Rage Agony Endless pain I'll never be the same [Solo by Piet] Castaway Today Light years away from home Blood on my hands I must redeem I will repent No more repoungance between the machine And my tortured mind Together we're strong - now we are one One of a kind I've been to Hell... To Hell I have been to pay for my sin But no more I'll burn - I shall return Demons of darkness You've been calling me But I'm clear in my mind now And I'm on my way and I am free
