Words & music by Hansen
The words I hear is calling out again
They creep inside the darkness of my brain
I’m falling down but cannot touch the ground
The stream of light is closer than I see
Can I escape from my own destiny?
Or am I trapped inside for eternity?

Норвежский пауэр метал… До сих пор это словосочетание вызывает у меня небольшую улыбку, ведь не мне Вам рассказывать, какими коллективами и какого жанра знаменита северная страна. Своим первым альбомом “Satrap” норвежцы запомнились нехилой долей энергии и умением ладно и качественно переигрывать (порой уж совсем увлекаясь соляками) ранний Helloween и Stratovarius. А вот ко второму подошли уже не так беззаботно – команды преследовали кадровые перестановки, шла война и за право выпуска этого релиза не на Sound Riot, а на каком-то другом лейбле, потому как музыканты остались крайне недовольными работой по первой пластинке. Но то, что подписано и записано в контракте оспорить не удалось, и “Symphony Of Glory” вышел там, где и должен был выйти. Больших изменений в музыке команды не произошло – это по-прежнему очень позитивный, порой отдающей неким безумием в своей радостности, power metal, основанный на ранних работах Helloween (особенно любим музыкантами трек "Ride The Sky"), Running Wild и Stratovarius, с небольшим добавками Edguy. Если Вы вдруг считаете, что более детско-непосредственного power metal, чем первые два релиза Freedom Call, Powerquest или Dragonforce не существует, то Вы ошибаетесь. Послушайте “Symphony Of Glory” и все станет на свои места – столько позитива не найдешь и на трех дисках, а тут все на одном. Но учтите, это только для истинных фанатов киндергарден пауэр метала, остальным беспокоится по поводу этой пластинки не стоит, сбережете много ядовитой слюны.

Watching the years fly by
If we could start again would you help us my friend
Or would you not dare to try
Something’s must change before it is too late
The time is right we gotta have some fate
We take a journey into the past
We see the things that man have done before
The evil the terror the destruction of it all
Is this really worth fighting for?
In the dark you will rise up to light the fire again
In the quest for a reason to start all over again
Lost in time the world is falling everything is falling apart
No escape from the terror that looks you in the eye
Travel through time and space we will help you survive
Travel to a distant place, a journey to save mankind
Miracles
Words & music by Hansen
Far to long I have been alone, will I end my life tomorrow?
I have tried to keep on going on, but all I get is sorrow
No one hears my cry
I believe in miracles but will they ever hear me
They seem to be so far away and never coming near me
Will it ever be my turn and will I ever see them
Cause the miracles that I have seen has never been for me
A voice inside is telling me to stay, but it’s very hard to do it
I’m afraid of loosing my mind, if I don’t find a solution to it
I believe in miracles cause finally they heard me
They used to be so far away but now they are near me
Finally it was my turn and finally I saw them
Cause the miracles that I have seen has always been for me
Seize the day!!
Words & music by Kjelstad
Why do we have to live this way?
This is no way of living
Can we find another day without hunger and deceiving?
Is there life for all of us?
I think that we can make it
Understand the meaning to life, death and spirit
In a world of war and crime
We are hoping for salvation
Out of the ashes we will rise, to fight for every nation
Like the eagle in the sky
We see the glance of sunrise
The morning glory for us all, we are standing tall
One day we’ll live forever for one and all together
We all will see the light when we will seize the day
Hand of fate
Words & music by Hansen
If I could walk into the fire
If I could walk right through the storm
If you could see my dark desire
You would be dying but not alone
If I could stop the world from burning
If I could rescue everyone
If you could see me in the mirror
You would be crying all alone
Out there, somewhere
The reasons for everything
Searching, falling
Deep into your heart
The Hand of fate, is never late
It will strike right from the sky
You can try to run, but you can not hide
From the hand of fate
Is there a place without no sorrows?
Is there a place where we can start?
To try an make a new tomorrow
Or will it all just fall apart?
If we all stand together
If we all are ready to fight
There will be a new tomorrow
Because our hope is burning bright
Wings of freedom
Words & music by Hansen
The years are passing by me
The world will change around me
And life will always be a big illusion
So hard to be a part of
A life that‘s so confusing
To many things is going on inside of me
I fly on my own
I decide where to go
I have finally found
My own wings of freedom
I speak up my mind
I am no longer blind
I have finally found
My own wings of freedom
To many times of sorrow
To many lies to swallow
I’m breaking loose now and I’m not coming back again
I feel the wind around me
I see the world below me
It’s like I’m born again and finally I’m free
Spanish eyes
Words by Hansen, Kjelstad / music by Kjelstad
The first time I ever saw your face
I felt something in my heart
A feeling that I never knew before
Could this be a brand new start?
I was lost in your eyes
Could you be the sun of my life?
I thought that I never could
Have someone like you
She made me feel so funny
The feeling was so strange
I love her very easy, It will never change
She's the one that I would love, to have and know that I
Have met my Sweetie pie
All the days that has gone by, my love will never die
For her my Spanish eyes
The days with you are the best I have had
I hope we will have many more
My life has changed but I’m still the same
The Joker and friend for all
I ‘am lost in your eyes
Cause you are the sun of my life
I thought that I never could
Have someone like you
Oh how she looks
Oh how she smells
I feel a tingling in my bells
She's the one that I now love, I have her and I see
That she's the one for me
All the days that has gone by, my love will never die
For you my sweetie pie
My Spanish eyes
Oh my love it is so true, and it is just for you
The love I've never knew
Hear these words and you will see, the only one for me
Is you my Spanish eyes
No Release?
Words & music by Hansen
So the day did come, when we got our chance to show the world
That we can be apart, so with this contract we did start
With no cash with no loans, we where making it on our own
But very soon it got dark, it seemed like it all would fall apart
Is there no one who can help us now?
Are we lost? Are we out of the game?
Will there be no release? Aaaah ah ah ah
We had a deal but no it’s gone, we cannot finish what we’ve begun
This cant be right, this must be wrong, where is this hell now coming from?
So very close but still so far, will you help us to heal this scar?
Time runs fast no hope in sight, our dream was fading in the night
There was a light that we did see, was it dream or reality?
We must be strong and carry on, because it’s here that we belong
But suddenly the things did change, we would break out from our chains
And finally we did see, the end of eternity
Finally we where seeing the end
Finally it would be a release
Be Thy Cross My Victory
Be Thy Cross My Victory
Words & music by Hansen
A fire is burning in the night
The stars are shining so bright
It’s always a silence before the storm
But when hell breaks loose the rage is born
Listen to the voices inside you
They will guide you and show you the way
We are far away from home
We come from beyond the sun
We fight for freedom my friend
And we’ll stand by you until the end
A warrior is razing his sword
Screaming I will die for my lord
The sound of steel and metal is so loud
Raise your head look ahead and be proud
Be thy cross my victory, let me live for eternity
Requiem, Aternaem. Dona Eis Domine
Dans La Glorie, De Ton Ciel
(Almighty god, give us eternal rest, be thy cross my victory)
Time is changing world is burning
Clock is ticking still we’re not learning
World is dying people are crying
Have we all just gone insane?
Symphony of Glory
Words & music by Hansen
Into the story and out of the storm
Dark times have been before
A quest for a dream was the strength of it all
The reason to carry on
We are fighting for a dream that we have
And no one shall stand in our way
No matter how long it takes, we shall over come
Cause believe me the day will come
When you will hear a symphony of glory
As your dreams come true
A victory to show them all that never did believe
The symphony of glory is real
Inside every heart there’s a fire that burns
But there are so many rainy days
Hold on to your dreams cause they will make you strong
And in the end your time will come
Sometimes life is so hard
And everyday is a struggle to survive
Keep on dreaming and you will see
That your dream becomes reality
It’s the symphony of glory
And it’s here to stay for eternity
The symphony of glory
The song of a victory
