Out of Nowhere
(Lyrics By Bob Katsionis)
There are times
That I feel my body cold
And all my senses drift away
Like an echo in the water
Like a shadow in the dark
Like a prayer to the Gods
That went astray
Seasons come and seasons go
And I still remain the same
No-one cared to ask
Who’s behind my mask
No-one dared to know my name
Out of Nowhere
Out of time
There’s no reason
There’s no rhyme
How it feels
When somebody holds your hand
And he guides you through the night?
I will never know
What’s beneath the snow
Will I ever see the light?
Out of Nowhere
Out of time
There’s no reason
There’s no rhyme

Have you ever asked your self
Is it me or someone else?
The man, you see, in the mirror
Can you recognise your eyes
Is it devil in disguise?
The man, you see, in the mirror
Do you dare to look behind
On the choices of your life
Do you dare to face the past?
(Don't look away)
The other side of the mirror
(Don't look behind)
The other side of the mirror
There's a stranger in us all
Hiding just behind the wall
The man, you see in the mirror
Can't you recognise his face?
Find the beauty in disgrace
of the man, that you see, in the mirror
Do you dare to look behind
On the choices of your life
Do you dare to face the past?
Do you dare to look beyond?
Stare right into the unknown
Do you dare to look away?
(Don't look away)
The other side of the mirror
(Don't look behind)
The other side of the mirror

The Sign

"Have you ever seen the face of God?
How does he look like?
Have you ever heard the angels sing?
Or was it too dark that night?"
...or maybe you were too blind to see.
I'm tired of being on the fence
For all my life
Got all my powers to your defence
Why don't you send me a sign?
If I could only see your face
Into the silence of a rising sun
Now that I'm lost without a trace
I need to see your guiding light
In the silence of the day
In the rays of light
In the crowded streets at night
Why do you leave me?
Why don't you send me a sign?
Sometimes I'm looking at the stars
And wonder if you're out there
I have so many questions for you Lord,
I only have so much to share
...but I know, but I know that you're out there.
I know, I know...
If I could only see your face
Into the silence of a rising sun
Now that I'm lost without a trace
I need to see your guiding light
In the silence of the day
In the rays of light
In the crowded streets at night
Why do you leave me?
Why don't you send me a sign?

I woke up in a place I can't remember anymore
Don't know if I am dead or I’m just dreaming
A stranger in a land without a reason and a hope
I try to say a prayer but I’m just screaming
And there’s an old man
with a smile on his face
His words of wisdom break my chains!
There is nothing to lose
There is nothing to gain
A tale of damnation
The Tale of Abel and Cain
I stood in awe and then the Old man said to me:
“My son, you need to choose your side in life.
In every table there’s a Fool and there’s a Thief
But guess who holds the knife”
And then the Old Man
He disappeared into the night
There was no end in sight…
There is nothing to lose
There is nothing to gain
A tale of damnation
The Tale of Abel and Cain
Bridge:
On my dream that night
I saw the face of God
And I was blinded by his might

Fortune Favors The Bold
04:15
|
|||
|
I’ve seen the kingdoms falling down,
I’ve watched the empires rise,
The rich becoming powerless
And fools becoming wise
And every time there was a man
Without the sense of fear
The one to break the walls apart
And never shed a tear
If you're searching for silver
You will never find gold
Who knows what the future will hold
All I know,
Is that fortune favours the bold
The soldiers carrying sword and gun
The children armed with dreams
The battle for the years that passed
When no-one heard their screams
No prayers for the fallen ones
The wicked will prevail
But a man who faces destiny
Will live to tell the tale
Like the words of a wise man
Like the stories foretold,
Who knows what the future will hold
All I know,
Is that fortune, favours the bold

Angels Of The Light
05:15

Vile are the devils
Black their swords
An Evil from the unknown worlds
As we're marching to eternity
Silver weapons
Swords of light
Blessed and sacred is our fight
As we sail into the blackest sea
Waiting for a sign
We stand ablaze in glory
This is our sacrifice
Our Holy Land!
We are the Angels Of The Light
oh-oh-oh-oh
As we engage into the fight
We are the Angels of The Light
Demons fly
All around
Storming on our sacred ground
Will we ever see the light of day?
Out of nowhere
We appear
The way is long, the end is near
Victory is just a breath away
Waiting for a sign
We stand ablaze in glory
This is our sacrifice
Our Holy Land!
We are the Angels Of The Light
oh-oh-oh-oh
As we engage into the fight
We are the Angels of The Light

Olympus

Beyond the tales of Ancient times
Before the Age of Wonders.
There is a trail, that leads to the sky
I felt the eyes of the Gods watching me...
And the skies turned to grey
Stormy clouds reached the ocean
Across the hills and the seas...there He is!
Shadow in the night
His trident shining bright
Right before my eyes
The legend is reborn!
The Forger of the Weapons,
The Messenger Divine
The Goddess of the Harvest
The Master of the Wine
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, Thunder and Lightning
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, I kneel before you all!
And in a flash of light
I was standing before the throne
Of the great and mighty Zeus
The King of all the Gods we’ve known
I knelt down on the knee
And looked up at his face
He smiled and said to me:
"Rise, child, and take your place"
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, Thunder and Lightning
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, I kneel before you all!
The light of day, the first rays of sun
Awake me from my slumber
Was it a dream for a chosen one?
Or was it all for real, I'll never know...
And the skies opened wide
Golden shades on the valley
Their light of Wisdom has shone!
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, Thunder and Lightning
Olympus, The mountain of the Gods
Olympus, I kneel before you all!

Towers of Gold
by Sacred Outcry
supported by 65 fans who also own “Olympus”
I didn't think I even liked power metal. Sacred Outcry is above and beyond any power metal I've heard all my life. Towers of Gold is a spectacular achievement with soaring vocals and hard hitting guitar riffs. This is a genre that's rife with excess and Towers of Gold is a back-to-basics guitar-centered dream
