Samael
Above
1. Under One Flag
Billion lights burn the dark
Universe open wide
From sky to sky we climb up
More and more it will never stop
Ambition shines like sun
In our heart, in you our eyes
Speculation rules the game
All for sex, money and fame
Now every night I dream about the ride
Got a stair need a horse with over-sized wings
Conquer to conquer
Conquer...conquer it all
Clash of prayers in electric sea
I stand like a tower stronger than me
All is full of power for those who can see
Don't believe the liars who don't want you to be
Now every night I dream about the ride
Billion lights burn the dark
Universe open wide
From sky to sky we climb up
More and more it will never stop
Now every night I dream about the ride
Got a stair need a horse with over-sized wings
Conquer to conquer
Conquer...conquer it all
Conquer to conquer
Conquer...conquer it all
conquer it all, conquer it all
2. Virtual War
Stand in war or rest in peace...
Rage...rage
Got some rage to exorcise
Rage...rage
Got some rage to exorcise
Go!
No turning back and no way out
Nobody leaves without a fight
Time is always a bit early
Victory precedes the Victor
The virtual war...fora concrete peace
Put...put your soldiers on the line
And your wish will be divine
Stand...stand and walk above the rest
No one but you can be the best
The virtual war...for a concrete peace
Rage...rage
Got some rage to exorcise
Go!
So much to see so much to hear
So much to give so much to get
Life is never more than you know
But it's sometimes more than you see
Something has to be cleaned
Before you bring your own nex dirt...Yeah!
Something has to be cleaned
Before you bring your own nex dirt...Destroy!
Rage...rage
Got some rage to exorcise
Rage...rage
Got some rage to exorcise
Go!
No turning back and no way out
Nobody leaves without a fight
Time is always a bit early
Victory precedes the Victor
The virtual war...for a concrete peace
3. Polygames
Fuck, Fuck, Fuck...
Hey!
Hi hey!
[voices]
Here we go again, here we go again
[voices]
O Fortuna, stay around me
Be my lover eternally
O Gloria, in ecstasy
As my hands read your body
O Maria, honestly
Would you betray your family for me
We'll be one with everything
I'll make sure you get there
Before I come, before I join
And we grab the stars, capture the universe
Hey, hey, mph, mph, ha, ha
Hey, hey, mph, mph, ha, ha
All different but yet so the same
It's always new,it's always fresh
You nail me down, I take the blame
For god my soul, for you my flesh
We'll be one with everything
I'll make sure you get there
Before I come, before I join
And we grab the stars, capture the universe
4. Earth Country
Earth country, earth country
All families listen to the elders
To learn what the eldest knows
Gathering information from the past
To recognize the future when it will come
Keeping their secret as a piece of their God's dream
A puzzling universe split through different minds
Collecting thoughts that has never been thought before
Mixing colors and race, for the great picture to be seen
Sowing the seed in everyone, for the seed to become a tree
For the tree to become wood, for that wood to be the land of our earth country
Too strong to fail, even through time of disgrace
Standing proud in the mess of all the afters
Sowing the seed in everyone, for the seed to become a tree
For the tree to become wood, for that wood to be the land of our earth country
Rise...rise
My people rise! Rise! Rise!
My people March! March! March!
My people March...
Earth country, earth country
All families listen to the elders
To learn what the eldest knows
Gathering information from the past
To recognize the future when it will come
Sowing the seed in everyone, for the seed to become a tree
For the tree to become wood, for that wood to be the land of our earth country
5. Illumination
Imagination cannot be stop
Faster than the light we reach the top
Coordination of thought and will
Give us visions that we can almost feel
We can speculate on any conclusion
Leading our emotions to any destination
Can explorate from every sensation
A world is to be found through transformation
Just like a dream...stronger...stranger
Just like a dream...the strangest and strongest dream
Illumination at the end of the tunnel
Revealed a world behind every hell
It's sometime worth staying on your way
Keeping the faith strong and straight 'till the next day
Just like a dream...stronger...stranger
Just like a dream...the strangest and strongest dream
Dream...keep dreaming...dream...
Imagination cannot be stop
Faster than the light we reach the top
Coordination of thought and will
Give us visions that we can almost feel
Imagination will lead us to the top
It goes slow motion but never stops
Coordination of thought and will
Give us visions that we can almost feel
6. Black Hole
Black hole, black hole
Quest of grail, loss of sanctuary
Through the wheel, all is infinity
Immortal, the flame that keeps us up
Infernal the time we lost in vain
I've been waiting all mi life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to live
I've been waiting all mi life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to...
Everything is up to something
Underneath your blackest emotions
Far above your brightest wishes
Stands a world for you to hold
Black hole, black hole
I've been waiting all my life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to live
Through the wheel, all is infinity
Immortal, the flame that keeps us up
Infernal the time we lost in vain
Black hole, black hole
I've been waiting all my life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to...
I've been waiting all my life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to...
I've been waiting all my life for this to come
This brand new world is where I want to live
7. In There
There is something and it can change
There is something and it can change
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey, hey the time has come to understand
Teen dreams have worked their way through me now
There is something and it can change
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching yeah!
No, no, no, no you're sometime close to lose your mind
Ha, ha, ha, ha too much sun will leave you blind
There is something and it can change
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching yeah!
No matter where you start
No matter where you go
Stay on your path my friend
It's gonna lead you there
No matter where, no matter how
No matter where you start...Hey!
No matter where you go...Hey! Hey!
Stay on your path my friend

No matter where, no matter how
Every prayer's got to reach their goal
As every stream will reach the sea
Hey, hey, hey, hey the time has come to understand
Teen dreams have worked their way through me now
There is something and it can change
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching
Tell me what it is, tell how it works
Keep trying, keep searching yeah!
8. Dark Side
As the sun gains its whole brightness
As the earth vibrated on a higher level
Bridge from sky to earth will consolidate
Life will avoid all punishments
The earth will shine
The earth will radiate
The sky will no more
The moon will turn on
We'll discovered our other face
We'll enter the dark side
We'll travel every people's mind
We'll understand the one we all where once
The dark side...the dark side...
No one will ever be judged
No one will ever be punished
Rebel angels fly while other people walk
Worshipers and other losers, victims of ignorance and naivety
Will remain prisoner of their carnal form
And forever serve who they all mean to be
9. God's Snake
Travel between a thousand legs
Taste hundreds of lips
Come over, slide inside again and again
Still heading for more, encore and encore
You know that you're alive
When you want more
I'm telling no lies
Don't fear the score
When the beast of our hearts
Speed it up our moves
It hurts so splendidly like a kiss
To an unreachable mouth
The rhythm of ecstasy
Mixes up our fluids
Like this...
You know that you're alive
When you want more
I'm telling no lies
Don't fear the score
Travel between a thousand legs
Taste hundreds of lips
Come over, slide inside again and again
Still heading for more, encore and encore
You know that you're alive
When you want more
I'm telling no lies
Don't fear the score
Again, again
Again, again, again, again
Again and again and again and again and
Again and again and again and .....Again!
10. On the Top of It All
If you pray night and day
If you fly all the way
Through the pale gray sky
Listen what I say
Watch the way we reign
As time goes by
Watch it now!
So you see!
Invisible, invincible
Is the force that moves you and me
Worshiped, enthroned
Ruling the world is my way to be
On the top of it all
I'm working my soul
Further up, further down
Further all, all around
Further up, further down
Further all around
Pass on your last love
And follow the line a state is yet unreached
What's under is Above
So now you know the sign prophesized and preached
You know it...O yes you know
Invisible, invincible
Is the force that moves you and me
Worshiped, enthroned
Ruling the world is my way to be
On the top of it all
I'm working my soul
Further up, further down
Further all, all around
Further up, yeah! Further down
Further all around
What's under is Above
Now you know the truth...
