All alone now
Except for the memories Of what we had and what we knew Everytime I try to leave it behind me I see something that reminds me of you Every night the dreams return to haunt me Your rosary wrapped around your throat I lie awake and sweat afraid to fall asleep I see your face looking back at me looking back at me And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare Is this all that's left Of my life before me Straight jacket memories sedative highs No happy ending like they've always promised There's got to be something left for me And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare Lies behind my stare How many times must I live this tragedy How many more lies will they tell me All I want is the same as everyone Why am I here and for how long And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare |

I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye Searching high and low The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime Handcuffed and blind, i didn't do it She said she loved me I guess i never knew But do we ever, ever really know? She said she'd meet me on the other side But i knew right then, i'd never find her I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No more nightmares, i've seen them all From the day i was born, they've haunted my every move Every open hand's there to push and shove No time for love it doesn't matter She made a difference I guess she had a way Of making every night seem bright as day Now i walk in shadows, never see the light She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in lovev i need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No chance for contact There's no raison d'etre My only hope is one day i'll forget The pain of knowing what can never be With or without love it's all the same to me I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in love I need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel |

There's one more candle left to light Don't turn your back on my disgrace The blood of christ can't heal my wounds...so deep The sins of man are all i taste Can't spit the memory from my mind I can't cry anymore Mary, my lady of pain, always alone Blind you search for the truth I see myself in you, parallel lives Winding at light-speed through time, you're mine |

Washing me, rain wash over me. Touching your face, I feel the heat of your heartbeat echo in my head like a scream. What you do to me! Waited so long I can't wait another day without you. Jet City Woman. It's a long way, home to my Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere, can't get her out of my mind. Whenever I'm alone I'm thinking, there's a part missing from my life. Wonder where I'd be without your love holding me together now I'm watching the time tick, tick away. Face grows longer every day. Fortunes are lost on the women I've seen but without you I can't breathe! You're the air to me! Waited so long, I'm all alone thinking about you. Jet City Woman. Got to find my way home to her. Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere I look! Jet City Woman. Just a thousand miles and I'll be there Jet City Woman, to make the clouds go away. Time for some blue sky! Waited so long now the plane's delayed and hour, reminds me of all our days apart. Hold on, just a little longer. Jet City Woman. Wonder where I'd be, you're the air to me. Jet City Woman. Eyes like the rain, rain down on me. Jet City Woman. No more nights alone I'm almost home now. Jet City Woman. Close my eyes, I'm there in my Jet City. |

Queensryche "Last Time In Paris" from the Ford fairlane soundtrack (Lyrics
from Queensryche fan club) Last time in Paris was a little strange, Had time to myself, Headed out to see the city sights. Met a little thing on the Champs-Elysees, Stole my heart away, You know I never could pronounce her name. She didn't mind at all. We were sitting there, Seemed like hours Pass the day away, Till they said we had to pay, Or do the dishes or something, I don't know. Living at the plaza Athenee, Got to rest for the show. Man at the front desk knew my face. Said he had a room with a view for two. But he forgot to say, Renovation next door starts today. Can't fing another room. All day long they banged, 14 hours. Show time on my mind, And wringing somebody's throat, Last time in Paris Last time in Paris Last time in Paris was strange Last time in Paris Last time in Paris Last time in Paris was strange Overslept, missed the bus to the show Had to find my own ride. Took the metro out to Avingnon. Man at the backstage, didn't know my name. Said hey, I'm with the band! You and everyone today. What is this guy new? 15 minutes fly, Someone sees me. Inside let me go Hey Geoff, we need photos Before the show! Last time in Paris Last time in Paris Last time in Paris was strange Last time in Paris Last time in Paris Last time in Paris was strange |

Pacing the floor the hunt begins Skin tight leather provides my pleasure Wake my fear, surge with the pressure Walk away and leave forever, do I dare? Raise my eyes, she stands Holding out healing hands Are you happy now? I walk the thin line for you Do just what you say to With fear as my friend I walk the thin line one more time for you Addictive face pretending, don't speak the word Forbidden sin relenting, I barely heard Screams of entry blur my vision Wake my fear of divine intervention Crawl away and bleed forever, if you dare Hand on mouth the game goes on Love, our stage to play upon Are you happy now?

In my head I hear the song a million voices strong. I feel the heart of conscious returning, that's why the man is burning. Burning Man |

Today is just the same as any other day to me.
Walking wall to wall to pass the time, I picture what it’s like on the other side. Because I’m here on the inside of blue, without you. Day in day out on and on ... I’m missing you. Nothing seems to work as well, my face in the mirror looks like hell. I think I need to see a doctor. I watch the slow hand move line by line. I can’t even think of the words that rhyme. Day in day out on and on ... I’m missing you. Some days it feels, just like falling down. Some days it’s easy, just like falling down. Some days it’s real, just like falling down. Some days it’s easy, just like falling down. Day in day out on and on ... I’m missing you |

There you were like a ghost from my early days, staring straight ahead at me.
How could I ever guess, from that moment on, just how everything would change. How could I know? I recall something strange coming over me, somewhat at a loss for words. I’d been around and had my share of what I thought my soul could bare, but never seen what I saw in your eyes. How could I know? We never took it slow. We gave it all we had and more. How could I know? We never took it slow. We gave it all we had and more. Looking back at where we’ve been, the road ahead is so uncertain. We keep passing open windows forever. I’ve tried before I’ll try again, I never know where were going. I only know that I’ll be yours forever ... yours forever ... forever ... forever. How could I know? We never took it slow. We gave it all we had. We gave it all we had. |

One life, is like one prayer, one love to share.
One thought, one dream. One world, one meaning. A man that’s lost everything holds his faith in his heart. Speaks to god of broken dreams, never wondering why when nothing’s heard ... one prayer. A woman cries in frustration, her man holds it inside. They forgot what got them here, the vows they promised to stand by ... one love. One life is like one prayer, one love to share. One thought, one dream. One world, one meaning. It don’t cost much for you to get to heaven, you just got to say your prayers. If you want to stand with your saviors, you better learn how to bow your head. Now bend your knees and bruise the earth and pray. Heed the cries of the war child. Mothers hold them to their breasts. Fathers fight an enemy and fear breeds unto itself ... one world. One life, is like one prayer, one love to share. One thought, one dream. One world, one meaning. One life ... One |

She always brings me what i need
Without i beg and sweat and bleed When we're alone at night Waiting for the call She feeds my skin Sixteen and on the run from home Found a job in times square Working live s&m shows Twenty-five bucks [a fuck] And john's a happy man She wipes the filth away And it's back on the streets again Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see Father william saved her from the streets She drank the lifeblood from the saviour's feet She's sister mary now, eyes as cold as ice He takes her once a week On the alter like a sacrifice Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see Religion and sex are powerplays Manipulate the people for the money they pay Selling skin, selling god The numbers look the same on their credit cards Politicians say no to drugs While we pay for wars in south america [saudi arabia, on tour] Fighting fire with empty words While the banks get fat And the poor stay poor And the rich get rich And the cops get paid To look away As the one percent rules america Spreading the disease Everybody needs But no one wants to see The way society Keeps spreading the disease |

dr. x: "kill her. that's all you have to do."
Nikki: "kill mary?" Dr. x: "she's a risk, and get the priest as well." 10 p.m., i feel the rain coming down My face feels the wet, my mind the storm Flashing lights as people race to find shelter from the pour Moving silent, through the streets, they're mine, they're mine Midnite, she sings praises in the hall To saintly faces hallowed be their names she can't recall Sister mary, virgin mary, silent with her sin [ mary: "what are you doing out in the rain?" ] She feels me, i can taste her breath when she speaks [ mary: "i've been waiting for you. come in." ] Mary, mary just a whore for the underground They made you pay in guilt for your salvation Thought you had them fooled? now they've sent me for you You know too much for your own good Don't offer me faith, i've got all i need here My faith is growing, growing tight against the seam What we need is trust, to keep us both alive Help us make it through the night I've no more want of any faith Binds my arm and feed my mind The only peace i've ever known I'll close my eyes and you shoot No mary, listen, you've got to pull your strength from my lips I pray i feed you well Your precious cross is gone, it made me wait so long For what you gave to everyone The priest is cold and dead on his knees he fed From my barrel of death, he turned the holy water red As he died he said thank you I just watched him bleed I feel the flow, the blessed stain Sweating hands like fire, and flames Burn my thighs, spread in sacrificial rite The hallowed altar burns my flesh once more tonight Mary, sweet lady of pain Always alone Blind you search for the truth I see myself in you, parallel lives Winding at light-speed through time No time to rest yet We've got to stop his game Before madness has the final laugh Too much bloodshed We're being used and fed Like rats in experiments No final outcome here Only pain and fear It's followed us both all our lives There's one thing left to see Will it be him or me? There's one more candle left to light Don't turn your back on my disgrace The blood of christ can't heal my wounds...so deep The sins of man are all i taste Can't spit the memory from my mind I can't cry anymore Mary, my lady of pain, always alone Blind you search for the truth I see myself in you, parallel lives Winding at light-speed through time, you're mine |

On a lonely walk this morning A light mist in the air Dark clouds laughing at me in silence Casting shadows through my hair In the distance I saw a woman Dressed in black with eyes of grey She wore her pain like a shackled spirit Eternal life was her debt to pay The lady wore black It's the sign of the prisoners lives The lady wore black See the years through the tears in her eyes The lady wore black Her mystic power calls to me The lady wore black Her love can set me free The wind song whispered a warning Telling me to beware Of the quiet shadowed woman And of the sadness I would share We sat for sometime together in silence Never speaking in words Of all her thoughts she spoke with her eyes And I listened remembering all I heard The lady wore black It's the sign of the prisoners lives The lady wore black See the years through the tears in her eyes The lady wore black Her mystic power calls to me The lady wore black Her love can set me free The words she spoke were of forgotten lives And of all knowledge gained Mem'ries I had and didn't know why With a smile she explained I should have listened to the wind's cold warning And walked the other way I touched her soul and now I bear her sentence But for her love I'll gladly pay The lady wore black It's the sign of the prisoners lives The lady wore black See the years through the tears in her eyes The lady wore black Her mystic power calls to me The lady wore black Her love can set me free |

Bless me father for I have sinned
In the wooden chair beside my window I wear a face born in the falling rain I talk to shadows from a lonely candle Recite the phrases from the wall I can't explain this holy pain Six days ago my life had taken a tumble The orders came from high above they say A need to use me once again, they've got my number Further the cause, boy, yes, you know the game I'll wait here for days longer 'Til the sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow She brings the only friend that helps me find my way I search the past back to a time when I was younger A target for the new society Picked to displace the leaders Countering objectives of this new underground reality Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow My love for her will help me find my way (They'll say) My mission saved the world I stood proud My mission changed the world It turned my life around I look around, my room is filled with candles Each one a story but they end the same I'll hide away in here the law will never find me The walls will tell the story of my pain Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady who can ease my sorrow She sets the pace for my delivery of pain (They'll say) My mission saved the world And I stood proud My mission changed the world The underground (They'll say) Will rise and save this world We'll all stand proud Our mission changed the world, we'll change the world We'll all stand proud |

I've had enough and I want out!
"You can't walk away now." I looked back once And all I saw was his face Smiling, the needle crying Walking out of his room With mirrors, afraid I heard him scream You'll never get away Cold and shaking I crawled down alleys to try And scrape away the tracks that marked me Slammed my face into walls of concrete I stared, amazed at the words written on the wall Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name Wet and raving The needle keeps calling me back To bloody my hands forever Carved my cure with the blade That left me in scars Now every time I'm weak Words scream from my arm Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name |

the tolling of the judgement bell Eyes watched the violence the absence of those who have seen, marks the faith of the spell Cold is the viper stalking the night for the heat It must find Time is the promise delivered with stunning consistency line after line, time after time the innocent victim awaits... Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Voices are calling me back Back to the day Footsteps had followed Me faster... listen Screams from a new love the passion was burning, it singed in a stare Free under the night sun The fear of the hunger will always be there in my mind Time after time the morning will close a new page Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Follow the impulse you have I'll show you the way Forget what you've learned in the past now Listen and... |

No sanctuary You're walking halfway in But crawling halfway out There's a void in your mind that you cling to You feel lost in time, you've got no words to rhyme No more charms, no more spells to protect you Oh can't you see the lies in front of you Your journey ends so far, and still the distance Spins round and round you Now you cry - give me sanctuary You scream, but no one listens Again you cry - give me sanctuary Until the end I'll fight and die Oh I've got to be free |

From the night comes a roar of thunder
Beholding light on the spell you're under And the signs of death descend you way Fighting back from the devil's hunger Freeing back from their chosen number And the sword of the right will guide your way And thus you'll find that only demons fill your mind until you wake But only time will tell the answer you've been blinded from today Burning dreams cause your mind to wonder Iron crosses are the calling numbers And the fight for the answer still reamins old But the night will reflect the hunger And the blackness will pull you under Still the sword of the right will guide your way And in the night you'l hear the voices calling down and they will say But only time will tell the answer you've been blinded from today |
