I don't believe in tomorrows - you'll never change my point
of view, My fears and sorrows runnin' down my spine, I tell you. I watch my people dyin', I watch them go - I don't know where... The skies are crying, washing out their blood into the The rivers runs away, Turns red and looks like vein. The rivers shows the way, Away from bloody rain. The Gods of war are callin', I hear their voices in the wind. The sun is falling - another day is gone, another sin. I see the star of sadness is touchin' bodies on the ground. Somebody's madness just took my life and turned it upside down. The river of pain - we're all betrayed and sold, The river of pain - my land is dead and cold. The river of pain - when I close my eyes, The river of pain - spirit never dies... My time has come I'm leaving, my mind is tearin' me apart. I wanna die believing in common sense and wisdom of my heart... |

Every empire was raised by the slave,
Built through the ages - destroyed in a day. Solid walls your golden cage, now it's time to turn the page. Tearin' down - we're gonna burn it, To the ground - you'll never learn it. Watch us now - we're tearin' down the world. Tearin' down - by bits and pieces, To the ground - we'll never miss it. Watch us now - we're tearin' down the world. Brother to brother, father to son, No one recalls when the madness began - and nobody cares! Can you live your life in hell, can't you hear the warning bell? Water's like acid and heaven's like hell, Whole world's like paper and steel. What should we do if it won't ring a bell? Tell me just what do you feel? Drink out the ocean and stare down the star, Burn down the forest and steal food from hungry, You made it so far. Tell me just what do you feel? |

The one who's watchin' over my shoulder - get a life!
I see your arms are nailed to the cross, but your eyes are so alive. I never thought you're lying but now it's turned around, So many hearts are dying - you let them down, Over and over again... Can't reach you, can't meet you, I give you everything I've got. You hear me, don't leave me, It's my message to you, God. Can't see you, can't feel you, I've lost just everything I've got, Forget me, you've left me, It's my message to you, God... We're busy burnin' witches the way we learned from you. We're good at killing creatures, so teach us something new, come on! One of your own creations is kind of hard to understand, You, freak of nature - just tell me why did you create us man? Traces on the floor, I can't hear the door closing me. Right inside my dream, it's a sign from him - let me be. Sunrise through the dust - future is the past chasin' me. Shadows on the wall, voices down the halls calling me, Over and over again... |

Wanderin' bout the past - stayin' lost in line. Never ending story of both night and day, Everything's been lost along the way... Over the years all the friends I've had, Rushed to settle down before they died. In the darkest hour - screams into the night, Everyone's who never seen the light. Someone's lost and someone's found, Someone's movin' 'round and 'round. Someone's pushin' all the way and hit's the ground. Someone's came and someone's gone, Someone's livin' on the run. Someone's made it, someone's not, To see the dawn... Minute by minute, hour by hour's gone, Left me alone, kept twistin' me 'round and 'round. Every single piece of me will cry for help, Do I have to take that final step? Someone's lost and someone's found, Someone's movin' 'round and 'round. Someone's pushin' all the way and hit's the ground. Someone's came and someone's gone, Someone's livin' on the run. Someone's made it, someone's not, To see the dawn... |

Engine is roarin' like hell. Wings on my side, shakes off the light, Ready to go - I can tell. You better sit upright or you fall down, No one's gonna help you miles around.

I'm just a number, I don't know my name.
Unknown faces a part of the game. Out in the desert the madness begins, Who's talkin' mercy? We're playin' to win... Better run around, there's no easy way out, If you loose - take a stand, So do whatever you can - again and again. Running wild like creature of the night, We're born to run - we never trust the light. Running wild, we're so afraid to try, We're all alone and everyone is blind, Running wild... You'll start the fire and livin' on a lie, Rats get fat while good men die. They got you running to follow the track, You'll face the trouble with fear on the back... |

Open up the window"-said the light-"See into another
world" Is it only a dream? Voices sound familiar in the night...could this be reality? Or is it all in my mind? Why me? Could I just be "The One"? Or have I come undone? Head in through the door and start to run straight into another life, dear old friends beside me Never had a dream that`s so surreal-could this be the end for me? Am I losing my mind? Still...I just stay.Can`t run away-there`s a price to pay Look into the sky thru the naked eye,in a flash of light - surrender Losing everything,soldiers march and sing.Distant bells will ring - surrender Let the children cry-earth will breath a sigh in a blaze of light - surrender They`re taking everything.Demons dance and sing when the chimes will ring The end is here "Open up the window"-said the light-"Welcome to another world" Dear old friends beside me Voices so familiar every night-could this be reality? Am I losing my mind? |

Scrach the surface of your fear,take a look inside it Books on fire everywhere.Our work? You got it right We`d never missed a chance to destroy whatever comes our way So,day by day-it goes on forever Burning the age page after page - leaving the stage to you No excuses,no regrets-wiping out the magic Things we`d never understand`re dying `til the tragic, final point of no return.You can see it coming in the dark Behind your back step by step it`s climbing up to the top of your world...I`m waiting |

We're here to simplify your life forever man, you just don't know
How good your life is gonna be Take every aspect of your day - computerize the place you stay Just leave the thinking up to me Technology within the walls around you You never knew how much you needed our protection 1 - too many reasons 2 - the changing seasons 3 - the time has come to realize 3 - so sad and lonely 2 - you are the only 1 - countdown to World Wide War "We've come to take away your brain and put computers in it's place" You'll never hear these words from me Just smile and sign away your life and kiss your holographic wife You never dreamed it'd be so good Technology will wrap it's arms around you Just let our main frame show you love and affection "Oh no, you're never gonna change the way I live my life" We'll insert a chip in the place where your heart used to be "Oh no, you're never gonna take my heart, my soul" Tell your soul - we control these things. |

On the road of disillusions,in the land of broken dreams
From the city of confusions,scared to death I`m running-or so it seems In the sun my heart is freezing,mind is boiling in the shade And a mean mirage is teasing `cross the endless desert,that`s due to fade out by now,but still around.Makes me wonder why we`re here on this unholy ground I feel you`re near,I hear your call,I see your shadow on the wall I know you`re here day after day,but everytime-one step away Divided only in our mind,why can`t we see another`s side? Out of my fear I`ll build the bridge - you are so close but out of reach I can`t tell you where I`m going,I can`t tell you where I`ve been I just run without knowing what I did,you know what,just what I mean? I gave up on understanding,I let go the foolish pride Won`t expect a happy ending-not this time,I know it-but it`s alright `coz me and you`re the same - even 1000 years apart I got someone to blame We were looking at each other while the ones we`ll never see, only feel,have slowly passed you...and me. |

to moonn6pence from shootingstar
Dark and silent world just felt asleep.Moon is staring from the deep, wise and quiet sky above my head.Stars are fading- do they regret hopes and fears that they reflected back to us through all those years? Time is standing still until the dawn.Living daylights will force it on the run Game is over.No more peace of mind `til the night`ll come crawling,so I could find you And then I could dive into the darkness full of memories- again If I`m closing my eyes to remember the day when the wind of eternity took you away Many colors of pain in my heart - I can see,it`s all coming back to me As the merciless sun melts the rest of the night,chasing vision of you through the ocean of light slowly passing me by,turning wishes to dust - I`m living the days of no trust |

We gave this pain to the world which we can't understand Blood disappears like the raindrops when hitting the sand Eye on the Bible and hand on the gun - wandering comes to an end Fight in the name of your god and his son - wait for the final command: Total Recall - we saw it all,we took it all protected by the law Total Recall - we torched another life we'll never know Total Recall - we shot it all we burned it all and now it's time to go Wish for redemtion and peace's never crossing our mind Blood on the bricks - that's all that we're leaving behind Pictures of home disappearing in flames. Mission's complete In the end there's nothing to lose, we're ready to go - Wait for the final command - "Total Recall". |

Another fight - another story.
I cannot choose, I'm always playin too much. Days runs to night, turns off the glory. Somebody's looses, somebody looks out of touch. The colors are dark, but I hope to get luck on my side, My sprit lost - I'm cry my heart out. 10 000 years have passed and what have we learned? We're doin' worse - illusion's all 'round - My life's the same as many lifetimes ago... Day in, day out - I'll be alright, Day in, day out - I feel like shoutin' it out. I'm stranger in town, tryin' to make some connections, My future and past are desperate wreck. I'm starin' at mirrors and my my own reflection, So rashly and slowly stickin' a knife in my back... |

No longer waiting for the tide It took a while to try and understand How do I want to live my life: You live it or lie it - anyway you want. I cross the ocean to another side to see the world you've never seen I'm walking straight into the glowing light feeling as twice the man I've ever been You live it or lie it - no reason to deny it. Stop dreaming, start living... All you have to do is break your chains. Uncounted wonders no one's seen before... I've watched them rise and dissapear It could've been you - just open up the door And take that first step to overcome you fear. |

It's over now - I feel my sadness fades away
Wonder how we could survive and take it through another day? I'd say chances are few, but they are out there Start something new - right now and right here - Look, I'm telling you... We'll never give up, we'll never give in Wherever this road's gonna lead us We'll never give up, we're playin' to win And heading right up to the top We'll never give up, we'll never retreat Whatever out there's gonna hit us We'll never give up, we'll land on our feet We'll make it come right in the end - We'll never give up! Seconds fly as if the're bullets - Could it be Worth a try (a try) to cut them loose and let some peace come sown on me? I see chances are few but the are out there, waiting for you to decide To start something new - right now and right here to change your life tonight We'll never give up, we'll never give in Wherever this road's gonna lead us We'll never give up, we're playin' to win And heading right up to the top We'll never give up, we'll never retreat Whatever out there's gonna hit us We'll never give up, we'll land on our feet We'll make it come right in the end - We'll never give up! We will never give up, we'll never give in Wherever this road's gonna lead us We'll never give up, we're playin' to win And heading right up to the top We'll never give up, we'll never retreat Whatever out there's gonna hit us We'll never give up, we'll land on our feet We'll make it come right in the end - We'll never give up!

Seven Days
7 days build this "perfect" world, so beautifully unfolded... fat baby on your lap. 7 signs before you'd lose your cool, obnoxious, pompous fool? I'd say you're full of crap. So you're still selling that Paradise skam?.. While keeping a hell of a poker face. Well, nothing's really changing at all, so I'll be damned, boy: Thank you for those 7 priceless days. Please, don't be a stranger, look inside my life. Full of it? As you are... with a touch of pride Cut me wide, wide open, rip me up inside... What's the matter? Busy? Blinded by the light? Zooming in - the shores of Paradise... Those billboards're - full of lies - Unchaining gates of hell. Tears of joy on salesman's pretty face... He's screwing us with grace - I hope I'll live to hell Hell or heaven - the same merry-go-round. Pieces of one puzzle - cut'n'paste. Tell me, is this really the best way which you've found While sitting on that holy ground, wearing that shiny, golden crown For 7 unforgettable days? 7 deadly sins - those remarkable days... |

Kiss Of Faith
Only dead have seen the end of war... Knowing that - I feel a bit better When I do remember what's happened before... oh well. Moving on to the heart of a matter Father always told me 'bout men and mice, Bein' not afraid to take chances Well, he said enough 'coz by the time he got iced I was on my way - circumstances led me out into the open... Boy, reality bites. Doesn't matter what you do - another crook gets rich Doesn't mean a thing what's your calling Living by your heart - and whining "life is such a bitch"? Anyway you go - you're falling to the bottom of the food chain. Let me show you the way... When the moon comes up and the sun goes down I can change the whole world. Feeling stronger From the dead of night to the morning light Getting ready to challenge my faith When you're feeling weak and your life seems tough, You can't wait for a break any longer... Who can stone you cold, who can whip you down If you'll steal a lil'kiss from your faith Do I live as I live or as I do? Don't you forget who told you: "When life has no value - death has it's price" ...Just something I saw in my father's eyes. |

Here's royal flesh and cannot meat You name it, my associate Is sharpening her knife Please take a peek inside Tell me how, how it feels like When you're spilling paper blood in the blaze of glory Paper blood, on the holy ground Paper blood, never ending story Paper blood makes the world go round and round We've got it covered to the tee Another wife? Just take a brief: Look at this fine selection of those Bitches from the East We're selling friends, we're selling cars A recent show with superstars A child, a war, a heart, a soul It's all to make you pleased, right! Nothing is too strange When we are in this price range You're wasting paper blood in the blaze of glory Paper blood, on the holy ground Paper blood, never ending story Paper blood can buy a tiny crown For this sad and weary clown So he can smile and take a look around Across his kingdom, fake as it could be (And what's wrong with that?) Where tears of joy're impossible to see (What do we need them for?) Where heartfelt laughter's not what you will hear (And so what?) Enough of that, 'coz it's my biggest fear |

Images of winter gently move
Fallen, golden leaves. Sun is hiding far behind the roof, Knowing what it means Days are getting shorter, I can see Chilling tears of fall Running down for you and leaving me Out here in the cold Since you left whatever I would do - Nothing comes out right I'm fighting through another lonely day, Another sleepless night. Dreaming 'bout wings to fly away But as I was told Brokenhearted can't, the're cursed to stay Out here in the cold This change of a season is over and done Won't look for a reason... just sad that you're gone Every single word you've ever said Is ringing in my ears Making me remember what I had. This burning trail of tears Leading me away, into the night... Closer to my fall. Season's changing, turning off the light Out here in the cold Dissapearing very slow - this line of footsteps in the snow... Spirit of my better day's living on the edge Be it so and let it be... 'coz as far as I can see There's no way to escape this season's change. |

When the night is calling I shut another door
Celebrating loneliness I've never known before I miss a place to call my own - it's a long way home In my open prison cell just everything I've got disappeared in silence every word I've said is not And now I'm lost and all alone - it's a long way home It's a long road, but even longer for the blind And I've been searching way too long Still I can't find the place where I belong It's a long way home You see me suffer on my knees - I wish I knew just what it means You watch us come, you watch us go - he tells me something I don't know You've set me up, I thought I'm free - just tell me where you wanna be Another step and I'll be gone - what you will do can be undone |

In the beginning there was one and only God, you see - all said and done -
the only one you chose to rule the world But then... as time was passing by you kept - without even knowing why - re-entering new faces to the fold So was it progress or regress? A bunch of them created such a mess inventing laws all written gold on gold "From now on one icon leaves no room for others" So now we're back - a single face in every corner, showing holy grace, demanding bigger palace - worth the king We're working hard to build it right, we're slaving every day and every night, just dying to complete this bloody thing Higher, higher... we can't stop. The tower's getting higher Build a perfect house of light on our flesh and bones to keep a sacred image under lock and key, but every single dream we had kept ending in the mud when we replaced religion with the rock... the very first mistake - a simple rock. Inferior gods must be gone... tomorrow there'll be only one. |

It's been around for a while... that sign of a new beginning
I tried to let it all slide - no way, my mind keeps spinning Some of the choices I've made's been haunting me forever as trying hard to persuade me to regret. However: Loneliness is grieving over what you are and then discover who you were... or used to be... and now it seems so hard to understand Give me strength to be who I was, recreate the ones whom I lost down the road - so hard and lonely - please forgive me now for who I am I do agree to a point... no grudge's been left unchallenged as if I could disappoint a crowd around me... As each day of my life has been led by one declining nation And in the end - all I'd get's my final destination As there's no escape and no redemption at any Sunday afternoon Your sins are catching up to hit you in the back - you never thought they would until today...you're doomed while watching an open exit wound |

looking around, hoping the hate is gone Waiting... as for the magic trick to be revealed: you see, it's high noon at the battlefield - and not a soul around - another high noon at the battlefield Touching the ground, feeling the pain below... How did it end there? Wish you'll never know Guarded by this soil as if it was a shield: you see, it's high noon at the battlefield - I left my fear behind - a peaceful high noon... But not so long ago the wind was strong and freezing cold while blood was running down that hill A war like this - you mark my words - can not be put on hold: we'll keep on welding our steel Do you believe that horrors from our distant past will ever make us change our mind?

I'm back in town where I was born,
Where street's so cold and heart's of stone. They told me - kid, you'll see the sun. I did! through the barrel of the gun... Day one I understood the game, So much to loose - so much to gain. I'm not the one who's left behind, I know I'll make it - through the night... Somebody's gonna die in a desperate fight, No use to hide away the light. Get paid to go so far - no matter who you are. Nobody's gonna run and there's no one to blame, We're under the gun and feel no shame, It's never gonna end - the legion of the damned... I've listened to preachers, I've listened to fools, So many saints, so many rules... It's gonna be - cold day in hell, If ever reason'll break the spell. Somebody's gonna die in a desperate fight, No use to hide away the light. Get paid to go so far - no matter who you are. Nobody's gonna run and there's no one to blame, We're under the gun and feel no shame, It's never gonna end - the legion of the damned... They don't understand, I know who I am... |

Call it a day, close down the front, What you don't own, that's you don't want. Hitchin' a ride to the land of "A lot", Please everyone, feel like a slot. You gonna choose, from a pack of lies, Which one will close somebody's eyes. You gotta jump over somebody's head, You better watch it every step. It's kind of tricky without safety net. Here today, gone tomorrow, From time to time it changes the state of mind. Here today, gone tomorrow, If you could get another life, your tears will dry? You'll see it passin' by... Claim to the top, make it all real, Crash everyone under your wheel. Give it a shot, do it at your best, Conscience is clear, put it to rest. Something is wrong, something won't flow, Feel like dressed up and no place to go, Stop buggin' me, now when you've failed. You're talkin' fair and out on bail, But every coffin needs a nail... |

I used to be kind of an easy guy, I tell you now you've sort of crossed the line. I've been in town and you've called the names, You better run back home and get brand new face! Bad times lost and good times won. Things will get ugly, you've all alone, You will never see the dawn. I don't care, cos' I'm bad to the bone... Bad blood breakin' your heart, I'm gonna track you down, You knew it right from the start. Bad blood breakin' your heart, All we got is just a bad, bad blood... Bad blood breakin' your heart, Because you're trapped in the middle, Now you're fallin' apart. Bad blood breakin' your heart, All we got is just a bad, bad blood... You want me down crawlin' on my knees, You wanna watch me suffer slowly by degrees, Hard hittin' stuff, but it won't make me crack, You wanna fight, you'll get a bang for the buck. Bad blood breakin' your heart, I'm gonna track you down, You knew it right from the start. Bad blood breakin' your heart, All we got is just a bad, bad blood... Bad blood breakin' your heart, Because you're trapped in the middle, Now you're fallin' apart. Bad blood breakin' your heart, All we got is just a bad, bad blood... |

Sailin' away - alone in the ships of time,
Wanderin' bout the past - i`m lost in line. Never ending story of both night and day, Everything's been lost along the way... Over the years all the friends I've had, Rushed to settle down before they died. In the darkest hour - screams into the night, Everyone's who never seen the light. Someone's lost and someone's found, Someone's movin' in the 'round. Someone's pushin' all the way and hit's the ground. Someone's came and someone's gone, Someone's livin' on the run. Someone's made it, someone's not, To see the dawn... Minute by minute, hour by hour's gone, Left me alone, kept twistin' me 'round and 'round. Every single piece of me will cry for help, Do I have to take that final step? Someone's lost and someone's found, Someone's movin' in the 'round. Someone's pushin' all the way and hit's the ground. Someone's came and someone's gone, Someone's livin' on the run. Someone's made it, someone's not, To see the dawn... |

Eyes of the night keepin' me right Engine's roaring like hell Wing on my side, shakes of the light Ready to go -I can tell You better sit upright or you'll fall down No one's gonna help you miles around There's no place for tears or fear of heights Nothing - just the thunder of flights Fly forever and try - Cross over the sky - Feelin' the wind blow. Cry for losers who died They're watching you fly - Over the rainbow Scary how fast you're down in the dust, Watching the sign in the sky Kill or get killed, glory and thrill Waitin' for one who'll survive I had a dream last night and I say you burn Right on the edge of the point of no return No more excuses and no more comin' back Light of the sun - ifs turnin' black |

Everytime I look into your lovely eye I see a love that money just can't buy. One look from you I drift away I pray that you are here to stay. Anything you want - you got it Anything you need - you got it Anything at all - you got it baby! Everytime I hold you I begin to understand Everything about you tells me I'm your man. I live my life to be with you No one can do the things you do. Anything you want - you got it ... Anything you want - you got it Anything you need - you got it - anything at all! I'm glad to give my love to you I know you feel the way I do. Anything you want - you got it ... Anything you want - you got it ... Anything at all - you got it - baby - you got it! |

You're out huntin' if I'm the prize - so roll the ball! I'm like a mad dog, keep fightin' - back against the wall! Come on I'll show you the world you never seen, Come on I'll teach you - good fight is when you win! (So listen up) Wasted time, like a poison in my wine, I call it... The perfect crime - like a bullet in the back it search you. Time is running out it hurts you, Goin' down because of wasted time... I'll keep on tryin' - NO ONE ALLOWED - I'm out too late. See losers cryin' - the sort thing I use to hate... |

White dress, torture in disguise, pointing flashlight right into my eyes sharp pain every single night - every day I fight a hopeless fight Look, over thirty years I've wished that I was dead somebody, help me out, 'coz I'm tied down to my bed I'm looking for someone to release me I'm waiting for an angel from my dream I'm talking to all of you around me I'm asking you - tell me can you hear my silent scream? Dear God gave me such a life full of pain, it's sharp just like a knife I can think, but I can not tell, what's life to you to me is hell I hear the storm outside - first drop just hit the hoof I'd die to see the rain, but I can't ...move ...If living is my cross, so let me die or crucify me now, but tell me, can you hear my silent scream? Time stays still - only I can feel when the darkness will appear every day I wished away my fear |

I got those wheels for nothin', yeah, some cash to burn. Talk of the town keep movin', No excuses, no return. Too dumb to steal, too proud to beg - don't shake my tree. I've been around the block, There money's tight and nothing's free! An angels face and butcher eyes, a quiet prayer - pack of lies. They call you fate - I call you pain and here I go again!... On the run, My journey's just begun! I'm On the run, Oh God, what have I done! On the run, Like a unforgiven son, I'm On the run! Like a night I'm chasin' down... I won't take any crap and I'm not comin' back, I gonna give you kind of peace of mind, No - shadow's right behind your back. I've pumped it up, you've called me bad news, now I'm gone. No pity regrets 'bout, Things I've said and things I've done. Look all around the place - law's gone, there's no respect, Don't get too close I've got my reputation to protect! So check it out the place is dead - low life, no fun. You listen up, and listen good - I'm better off just livin' on the run! |

In the misty morning after darkest night, I feel the heat, I do, and I remember, Promises are broken now when you're gone Don't turn me down, I'm lost and I surrender... Give me just a sign, Help to cross the line, We'll back time and start again Far away - I can hear you're callin', Far away - callin' up my name Far away - and the tears are fallin', Far away - no one is to blame... Some feelings won't come easy, You have to hit them hard You've burned the bridge, And I fell in a sea of sorrow Can you hear my prayer, Just bring back yesterday, I feel the pain, it makes me hate tomorrow... Take me for a while, Just to make me smile I wish I'll never ever cry again. Far away - I can hear you're callin', Far away - callin' up my name Far away - and the tears are fallin', Far away - no one is to blame... |

See a thousand bodies crackin'n'fallin' back, Rows of loaded weapon ready to attack. Sharp pain screams like hell in a victim's eyes. Wanna say to everyone - promises were lies... And here we go again, back to back, Round and round, And here we go again, back to back, One shot, buddy, and you're hitting the ground... Land of broken hearts. One more shot and another friend's gone. Land of broken hearts, Pray to your god, cos' the killing's begun. See a million faces - can you let it go? Try to stop this bloody rain paintin' on the snow. Blood, death - all around - livin' on the edge, Look smashed flesh - And bones prayin' for revenge. |

Run, you better run as far as you can, Why - I'm gonna die and nobody cares. Stop wastin' my time, I'm gonna fly high, You'll find out, the way to survive - Follow the light tonight! Watch your steps, it's Kingdom Dark, There is fear behind your back. Help me out or let me in, Watch me die for someone's sin. Out, somebody shouts, but who - I can't see, Age, blesses to the rage, callin' for me... |

I was raised in a faraway land,
Tryin' to be number one. Dad use to tell me - Whatever you do, never let go 'til you're done. I was fightin' as anyone, I was twisted around. I was broke just as anyone, On the way - way down. Never ever settle for less, Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless. Never ever settle for less, Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground. Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess... Chip on my shoulder and look on my face, Changin' my life on the fly. Too late to make it and too late to stop, Too late to figure out why. I was fightin' as anyone, I was twisted around. I was broke just as anyone, On the way - way down. Never ever settle for less, Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless. Never ever settle for less, Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground. Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess... The wind of sadness can shade the heart of gold. I'm gonna leave it all behind. I'm prayin' for a break - if I could face the world, Without sadness in my mind... Never ever settle for less, Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless. Never ever settle for less, Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground. Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess... |

Our circus's closed and midnight ghost Comin' out as lights go down Old and tired clown, no one is around Staring at the mirror - now listen Oh, the show must go on Lived in the crowd, but dyin' all alone Clown in the mirror - glitter and scars Here pleasure and pain look as one Clown in the mirror touchin' the stars Flyin' his dream to the sun What a mask can say? Cry the night away! Askin' mirror: "Tell me how long?" Wrigglin' all those years, through the laughter'n'tears Don't believe in hearts of stone Oh, the show must go on Lived in the crowd, but dyin' all alone Clown in the mirror - glitter and scars Here pleasure and pain look as one Clown in the mirror touchin' the stars Flyin' his dream to the sun But the sun will rise, evil took the prize Something will remind you Sign of disgrace - this paint on your face |

They have promised you the world And left you on your own Now all your life is built on fear Lies and hearts of stome And now I realize The promises were lies I can't believe my eyes Are you fightin' to survive? It's a lousy way to live A wish to make it through the night And nothing else to give Stay down low down Nobody cares if you're still hangin' around Stay down low down Who will you run to and who will you pray to When you're down on the ground Who will help you when you fall Who will pull you up When you're prayin' for revenge Who'll make you stop |

I don't believe in tomorrows - you'll never change my point of view my fears and sorrows running down my spine, I tell you I watch my people dying, I watch them go - I don't know where the skies are crying, washing out their blood into the... The river runs away turns red and looks like a vain the river shows the way away from bloody rain The Gods of war are calling, I hear their voices in the wind the sun is falling - another day is gone, another sin I see the star of sadness is touching bodies on the ground someday's madness just took my life and turned it upside down The river of pain - we're all betrayed and sold the river of pain - my land is dead and cold the river of pain - when I close my eyes the river of pain - spirit never dies My time has come I'm leaving, my mind is tearing me apart I wanna die believing in common sense and wisdom of my heart |

Sun's comin' up and news starts spreadin' around. Yesterday's gone, and you man I had to gun down, down, down. Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you. You'll run for cover, you'll spit him in the eye, You'll pull the trigger! - don't tell me lies... My mother said straight way's build on pride, yeah. If wishes were horses then beggars would be ride, and ride, ride, ride. Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you. You'll call it even, you'll desperately weep, You'll pull the trigger! - and nail that creep... Ten to life - now the crime is done. So long - I'm too far gone... Ten to life - from a judge so fine, Best man - that money can buy... Took a shot but I've failed, Now I'm dying in jail. And it cuts like a knife, I'm gettin' Ten To Life... Just like a dream they busted me and put me away, Over the hills and down to the slammer to stay. Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you. You'll turn another cheek, take livin' in disgrace, You'll pull the trigger - get off of my face... |
