| Set your controls
Welcome aboard, let me draw you deep inside
The dark caves of my twisted mind
Welcome aboard, take a seat and dim the light
Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight
Break away through the walls of reality
Enter the realm on the other side
Break away from the cold |

Now is the time to open up your mind
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
Set your controls
Throw the switch, get ready for some turbulence
Brace yourself with all your might
Throw the switch and tempt the laws of providence
Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight
Turn the dials and watch the years go by
Light years away, far beyond our sun
Turn the dials, into the void we fly
There's no way back once it has begun
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
Set your controls
The die is cast
You fade to black
Forget the past
There's no way back
The die is cast
You fade to black
Forget the past
There's no way back
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
Set your controls
High moon
Memories come back to me
It's the 22nd century
Unthinkable events occur
On the third moon of Jupiter
I'd leave this hellhole if I could
The mining's hard but the pay is good
There is only one way to survive
I take the drug to stay alive
The shuttlecraft has landed
The killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here
There is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown
So let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
High moon
High moon
High moon
High moon
The company is trying to hide
The higher rates of suicide
Here's no pain and much to gain
But then the drug destroys their brain
I gotta leave this evil place
I don't belong in outer space
Outside it's zero atmosphere
The only way to get out of here
The shuttlecraft has landed
The killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here
There is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown
So let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
High moon
High moon
High moon
High moon
He had to choose between his part in this machine
Or going back with her to earth
He never had a choice but when he heard her voice
He fought for all that he was worth
I had to choose, I could not lose
Had to get back to you
I had no choice, I heard your voice
I had to survive, had to stay alive
The shuttlecraft has landed
The killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here
There is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown
So let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
High moon
High moon
High moon
High moon
Songs of the ocean
As we return to earth memories are haunting me
My strange rebirth coming back to life
I remember the dark and how my friends set me free
I sacrificed my life so they could survive
There's something wrong on planet Earth
We can not reach our world
Some strange device slowly emerged
Can you hear the cries?
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
It must be unaware of the damage it's creating
They are reaching out to the seven seas
It's not with man they're communicating
We're going back in time, back in history
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the human race
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
I remember the dark and how my friends set me free
I sacrificed my life so they could survive
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the human race
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
Master of darkness
1) Master of darkness
Will you teach me the skills of the old ways?
Lying dormant in me
Help me evolve and enter a new phase
Where my spirit runs free
I cannot teach you, I feel too much violence
And it's clouding your view
Clear your mind, master the silence
Let it flow within you
I can feel a storm of passion raging deep inside you
Control your hate
Now it's time to yield to your aggression just like I do
Now choose your fate
And be a master of darkness
Don't be afraid, I won't stray down the dark path
My conviction is strong
Those who have sinned will answer to my wrath
I will right what is wrong
That's not the way, the dark will absorb you
You should never attack
You will be lost like many before you
There will be no way back
I can feel a storm of passion raging deep inside you
Control your hate
Now it's time to yield to your aggression just like I do
Now choose your fate
And be a master of darkness
2) Laserfight
You cannot break me, I'm not afraid of you
Don't think you've already won
I am your destiny, you know it to be true
Don't make me kill you, my son
I don't believe your lies, I can't imagine this
How can you say that to me?
You've got to realize it's useless to resist
Join me, we'll rule the galaxy
I can feel a storm of passion raging deep inside you
Control your hate
Now it's time to yield to your aggression just like I do
Now choose your fate
And be a master of darkness
The eye of Ra
1) Gateway to the stars
Far away in outer space
A traveller from another world left his dying race
He found our planet, full of life
In the body of a little boy he could survive
And Ra will live forever
He gains his powers from afar
And built a gateway to the stars
I have finally found the key
To chart a course to the other side of the galaxy
I need to find the seventh sign
Carved into the cover stones of an ancient time
And Ra will live forever
He draws his powers from afar
And built a gateway to the stars
2) The eye of Ra
Unaware of our coming fate
We disappear through the ancient gate
We arrive in a desert land
And set up camp on the burning sand
Behold a thousand slaves
Mining ores in the planet's caves
They give us shelter from the storm
Then Ra appears in a human form
Ooh, up there in space
The eye of Ra is watching over us
A tall ship descends from the sky
Lasers flare and many men die
A bloody battle has begun
We must destroy this king of the sun
Ooh, up there in space
The eye of Ra is watching over us
Ooh, an alien race
The eye of Ra is watching over us
Ooh, up there in space
The eye of Ra is watching over us
Ooh, an alien race
The eye of Ra is watching over us
3) The seventh sign
We have found the seventh sign
Down in the catacombs
When the seven points align
They will lead us all back home
We have found the seventh sign
Down in the catacombs
When the seven points align
They will lead us all back home
Sandrider
I have seen visions in a waking dream
I have seen places man has never seen
Am I the one to fulfil the prophecy?
On the desert planet in our galaxy
Sandrider, stormfighter
Unlock the chains and set us free
Sandrider, uniter
Guide us the way and make us see
I have seen navigators bridging space
I have seen the baron and his evil ways
Forging plans against the planet's nomad tribes
And in this dream I've seen my father die
Sandrider, stormfighter
Unlock the chains and set us free
Sandrider, uniter
Guide us the way and make us see
Drink the water of life
The sleeper comes alive
Drink the water of life
Only you'll survive
I have seen the creatures in the desert sand
I have seen them yielding under my command
One day the universe will be cleansed
One day my father's death will be avenged
Sandrider, stormfighter
Unlock the chains and set us free
Sandrider, uniter
Guide us the way and make us see
Drink the water of life
The sleeper comes alive
Drink the water of life
Only you'll survive
Perfect survivor
We wake up in our spaceship
From a year in hypersleep
On our way back to our system
We receive a message
From an uncharted planet
We decided to go in
We see a giant spacecraft
Whose crew has been hideously killed
Absolute perfection
I find it hard to escape its attraction
Its strength and genius
Unhampered by morality
My secret mission brings me back to reality
I have to bring it back alive
Perfect survivor
Of an alien hostile race
Perfect survivor
Of a human crew in outer space
We return to our spaceship
And break the quarantine
A strange unknown creature
Has invaded our ship
And now it's killing us slowly
We are dying one by one
There is no way to stop it
Most of us have given up all hope
The ship is indefensible
You should know that you all are expendable
My sole objective
Is to offer it protection
I have been programmed to put you out of action
If I'm to bring it back alive
Perfect survivor
Of an alien hostile race
Perfect survivor
Of a human crew in outer space
Absolute perfection
I find it hard to escape its attraction
Its strength and genius
Unhampered by morality
My secret mission brings me back to reality
I have to bring it back alive
Perfect survivor
Of an alien hostile race
Perfect survivor
Of a human crew in outer space
Intergalactic space crusader
We're on our way to a prison in space
Our last flight, the final phase
I was betrayed and now I've been caught
As the brains of a massive fraud
I can't remember, am I insane?
My mind is blank 'cause they emptied my brain
I will return, I will be back
I will unite us and we will attack
I don't care about your plans and schemes
Don't give a damn about your righteous dreams
All that I do I do for myself
I never cared for anyone else
We have to save them, we have to try
We can't just watch while the innocent die
Let's steal this ship and start our crusade
Powerful allies will come to our aid
Seven fighters, navigators
Intergalactic space crusaders
Federation, dictators
No scruples, lethal traitors
Outriders, invaders
Intergalactic space crusaders
Domination, liberators
Fighting to survive
Who on earth do you think that you are?
Without me you wouldn't get far
I've had enough of your private war
Why are we fighting? What is it all for?
To right the wrong, to fight the good fight
Living like you just wouldn't be right
I am the leader, I have the skills
Either you leave or you yield to my will
Seven fighters, navigators
Intergalactic space crusaders
Federation, dictators
No scruples, lethal traitors
Outriders, invaders
Intergalactic space crusaders
Domination, liberators
Fighting to survive
I can't believe you gave us away
Although it hurts, I will make you pay
Don't understand, can't figure out why
All I know - you have to die
Our strong bond couldn't keep us apart
I've always trusted you right from the start
You've been deceived, they're telling you lies
I'm still the same, I'm on your side
Seven fighters, navigators
Intergalactic space crusaders
Federation, dictators
No scruples, lethal traitors
Outriders, invaders
Intergalactic space crusaders
Domination, liberators
Fighting to survive
