And what costume shall the poor girl wear
to all tomorrows parties?
A hand-me-down dress from who knows where
to all tomorrows parties.
And where will she go and what shall she do
when midnight comes around?
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
and cry behind the door.
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
to all tomorrows parties?
Why silks and linens of yesterdays gowns
to all tomorrows parties?
And what will she do with Thursday's rags
when Monday comes around?
She'll turn once more to Sunday's clown
and cry behind the door.
And what costume shall the poor girl wear
to all tomorrows parties?
For Thursday's child is Sunday's clown
for whom no will go mourning.
A blackened shroud, a hand-me-down gown
of rags and silks, a costume.
Fits for one who sits and cries,
Lights out
Forever in darkness
The sadness
You're insane
Inside number twenty-five
You did commit suicide
You killed them all
Then you killed yourself
They think that you're alive
But you know that they are wrong
You left your body in a prison cell
Before you went to Hell
They think that you're alive
But you know that they are wrong
You left your body in a prison cell
You dont scare me much
By the things you say
Want me to be like you
I choose to live this way
You try to rule my world
And hurt me every day
I want to live my life
You want to take my soul away...
It doesnt cost me much
To share my thoughts with you
I know you'll never share
Share my point of view
Its not that easy you know
Not even if you pay
I want to be myself
You want to take my soul away...
You dont scare me much
By the things you say
Just want me to like you
Live my life my way
You try to rule my world
So what can I say?
I want to live my life

I am much to weak
I'm about to lose my mind
My thoughts are blurred
Can't believe I'd been so blind
I could find a way out
Could I only think straight
But I'm much too confused
And it's anyway too late
I'm too dizzy to think
I'm everything but fine
I'm sick and confused
Got no peace of mind
I've tried my best
But you're nothing more to see
I'm not in control
I hate to feel this way
Drifting away
Feel like I'm falling, drifting away
Spinning, floating further away
I am much too weak
I'm about to lose my mind
My thoughts are blurred
Can't believe I'd been so blind
I could find a way out
Could I only think straight
But I'm much too confused
That it's anyway too late
I feel like I'm falling, drifting away
Spinning, floating further away
I feel like I'm falling, drifting away
I got a feeling
That tells me something’s wrong
I guess I’m just jealous
But I’m afraid you know something
I should know
(I) got the feeling deep inside
That you know something
I should know
I know that something isn’t right
‘Cause I hold secrets, too
And you know
I got a feeling
That tells me something’s wrong
I guess I’m just jealous
But I’m afraid you know something
I should know, too
(I) got the feeling deep inside
That you know something
I should know
I know that something isn’t right
‘Cause I hold secrets, too
Come close, step inside
Radiance from a dying world
Contagious and careless
You're spreading your disease among us
Warm sweat, no regret
All you see is the TV set
While people around you
Are dying like flies
Non-stop violence, they feed us cascades
Of non-believers dying in the sand
Feeding us with violence, we face the fall of man
Believe me, and catch me if you can
Catch me if you can!
Non-stop violence, they feed us cascades
Of non-believers dying in the sand
Feeding us with violence, we face the fall of man
Believe me, and catch me if you can (2x)
Catch me if you can!
Come close, step inside
Radiance from a dying world
Contagious and careless
You're spreading your disease among us
White noise in your ears
Your eyes look like monitors
But what you need is silence
And a positive vibe
Not your TV!
Non-stop violence, they feed us cascades
Of non-believers dying in the sand
Feeding us with violence, we face the fall of man
Believe me, and catch me if you can
Catch me if you can! (4x)
(album version only)
So I take shelter in tomorrow
Tomorrow will bring a brand new day
I think I can make it right tomorrow
I think I need more sleep today
Lets play for keeps again tomorrow
I need a pill to stay awake
I guess I'll always hate tomorrow
Until it's far away
1989 in Norwegen. Stephan Groth und Jon Martinsen basteln ein bisschen mit
Elektromusik herum, und geboren ist Apoptygma Berzerk. Die Jungs veröffentlichen ein
Demo, das sich in der Elektro-Untergrund-Szene auch rasend schnell verkauft. Doch
Martinsen steigt wegen musikalischer Differenzen wieder aus. Stephan Groth
beschließt, alleine weiter zu werkeln, und tatsächlich beschert das Demoband
Apoptygma Berzerk einen Vertrag beim norwegischen Indielabel Tatra Records. Es
folgen zahlreiche Singles, die zu Clubhits in ganz Europa werden, sowie begeisternde
Live-Auftritte. 1993 erscheint endlich das erste Album, das düstere und klangvolle
Elektrohymnen beinhaltet. Vom Goth bis hin zum Raver reicht das völlig
unterschiedliche Publikum des Sound-Bastlers. Nach dem '96er Album "7",
das dichte Klangteppiche mit zeitgemäßen Beats verbindet wird er erst einmal still
um Groth, er muss seinen 14-Monate dauernden Zivildienst ableisten. 1998 erscheint
zum Trost für die Fans das erste Live-Album, das im selben Jahr auf der Europa-Tour
aufgenommen wird. Auch in den USA kann APB in diesem Jahr "7"
veröffentlichen und sorgt sofort für ausverkaufte Hallen bei der anschließenden
Amerika-Tour. 2000 erscheint schließlich das neue Album "Welcome to
Earth", das weitaus Dance-lastiger als sein Vorgänger daher kommt. Stephan
Groth und seine Mitstreiter Geir Bratland und Ted Skogmann sind vom Erfolg
überwältigt, den das Werk in Europa und den USA einfährt. Als kleines Bonbon an die
treuen APB-Anhänger erscheint im Frühjahr 2001 das zweite Live-Album mit alten und
neueren Tracks in direktem Live-Gewand. Im Frühjahr 2002 meldet sich Groth mit
"Harmonizer" zurück. Die Platte beinhaltet sowohl Dancefloor-Kracher als
auch wavige Sofa-Songs und bietet damit jedem der verschiedenen Apoptygma-Anhängern
ein Zuckerstückchen. 2002 Harmonizer2001 APBL 20002000 Welcome

I am only here because of you
and because you never left me behind
saying thanks in my own way
I say it with a song that soon will fade away
you keep me from breaking apart
you understand the chaos in my head
only you understand every word I say
you restore my soul and erase all hurt
the hurt that only you can take away
Pleased to meet you, we came to drop bombs on you
Shatter illusions, connect the dots and yell the truth
They'll trade fame, sex and gold
For a piece of your soul
Deceit, it will kill ya
Defeat, it will show what you're made of
Retreat, never surrender
You say you carry the weight of the world
Guess who's carrying you...
So no one told you they've been lying to us all along
They thought control us, 1984 is now
Imagine there's no Lennon
It might be hard, but give it a try
Deceit, it will kill ya
Defeat, it will show what you're made of
Retreat, never surrender
You say you carry the weight of the world
verse
All the weights that keep me down seem
heavier than before,they hit me in my face , though you feel nothing
Only time will heal , you say, your words my therapy, but half of me is gone, my dearest treasure torn away
chorus
I'll stick with you until the end of the world, I cry out loud , but you hear nothing.....I'll wait for you until the end of the world , my dearest treasure torn away
verse
I'm trying to get thru to you
I'm tuning in to the frequency of your soul
Why won't you hear?
Why won't you feel?
I'm tuning in to the frequency of your soul
It makes no sense, you won't connect
The more I push the more you reject
It makes no sense we won't connect
The More I push the more you reject
I'm trying to get thru to you
I'm tuning in to the frequency of your soul
Why won't you hear?
Why won't you feel?
I'm tuning in to the frequency of your soul
It makes no sense we won't connect
Maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear,
The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair,
Maybe it's our kookiness,
Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns,
Our nothing places and our cellophane sounds,
Maybe it's our looseness,
But we're trash, you and me,
We're the litter on the breeze,
We're the lovers on the streets,
Just trash, me and you,
It's in everything we do,
It's in everything we do...
Maybe, maybe it's the things we say,
The words we1ve heard and the music we play,
Maybe it's our cheapness,
Or maybe, maybe it's the times we1ve had,
The lazy days and the crazes and the fads,
Maybe it's our sweetness,
But we're trash, you and me,
We're the litter on the breeze,
We're the lovers on the streets,
Just trash, me and you,
It's in everything we do,
It's in everything we do.
But we're trash, you and me,
We're the lovers on the streets,
We're the litter on the breeze,
Just trash, me and you,
It's in everything we do,
Travelling with no destination
no place to go.
Nameless towns with faceless people
no place I know
Time to close my mind and drifft off to other scenes
Lose myself in glossy pages dull magazines.
Moments pass by oh so slowly
makes me lonely too
Twisting street lights in the darkness makes me lonely too.
the damned don't cry - no
the damned don't cry
Curling smoke climbs upward slowly past my troubling face
I see myself in rainsoaked windows in a different place.
Single heartbeats in the dim lights makes me lonely too
Hearing sounds of celebreations makes me lonely too.
the damned don't cry - no
the damned don't cry.
the damned don't cry
damned don't cry
I know I messed things up
by turning gold to stone.
Because of my free will
I lied about it all the way.
I need to forget,
and make this tragic feeling go away
I never heard a word,
a word of what you said.
I never heard a word,
a word of what you said.
Too busy being selfish;
I never learned the rules of life.
It's hard to confess,
and look you in the eyes.
I need you to forgive,
and make this tragic feeling go away.
I know I lost.
Please let me suffer in silence.
I've said enough.
Please help me hide from the ghosts
from my past
Staring at the ceiling sorting out my thoughts
Weighing every word I want to say
Darkness fills the room, it's closing in on us
The words all come out wrong again, I let you down
If I could just trust more I'd dare to speak the truth
Wish I could give one hundred percent
It's sad and unfair, you too are suffering
When I'm the guilty you are the innocent
For way too long
I've been merely a shadow of my true self
I'm in despair
I'm beyond repair
A shadow hanging over me it clouds my mind
Preventing any sane thoughts to occur
A silhouette is cast on your side of the bed
Reminding me of what I have become
For way too long
I've been merely a shadow of my true self
I'm in despair
I'm beyond repair
For way too long
I've been merely a shadow of my true self
I'm in despair
Come on, you say
Come play (Come play
)
Tonight I've been waiting; you may find the day
You'll be safe; we won't sell ourselves today
Promise you will stay
Come over me
Come play
Tonight I've been waiting; it'll be a brand new day
Promise you will stay
You'll be safe; we won't sell our hearts today
For a change
Ahhhhhhhhhh
.
You might fall in love with someone else today
Uhhhhhhhhhh
.
Ahhhhhhhhhh
But I will always love you anyway
Uhhhhhhhhhh
You might fall in love with someone else today
But I will always love you, anyway
You might fall in love with someone else today
Uhhhhhhhhhh
But I will always love you, anyway
* laugh *
You might fall in love with someone else today
But I will always love you, anyway..
You might fall in love with someone else today
Ahhhhhhhhhh
But I will always love you, anyway
But I will always love you, anyway
You might fall in love with someone else today
But I will always love you, anyway
You might fall in love with someone else today
You might fall in love with someone else today
Pitch black - I'm easy prey tonight
You know how it goes, you can't deny
That's right, I sell out every time
It's going downhill, but still I climb
I got two strong hands and some good genes, I'll survive
Still I'm in the wrong lane cause I don't drive
I tell myself "out of sight, out of mind"
Have to learn the hard way every time
Heat death - Can't wait till you get here
I'm gonna pack my stuff and disappear
You know it stings my heart and crushes my pride
But unlike me he'll stay by your side
You know it's only me against the world this time
Too bad being stubborn is a crime
Found a note, written to me, I guess
It said "I died for you, cause you're a mess"
I had to learn it the hard way
4 AM, I watch you sleep,
I pray to God your soul to keep..
You sound asleep, but I feel pain,
do you feel what I feel?
I wonder what you dream, when you dream,
you're in my thoughts, you're in my head again.
my eyes are red,
my head is numb,
my soul is weak,
but you make it go away.
my heart's like lead,
because you're real
because you're real
because you're acclaim
my eyes are red,
my soul is weak,
because you're real
my head is numb,
my heart's like lead,
because you're real
but you make it go away.

Ohm Sweet Ohm

Ohm Sweet Ohm
Tell it to my face
Stab me while you can
You rip my heart open
And so we crash-land again
Stumbling forward
Just a heart of gold
And a fist of glass
And so on it goes
The sharpest tool kills the fainthearted fool
Not so long ago
Just blame it all on me
Would be better off being a dead man
Lay it all on me
Destroy me while youb still can
Not so long ago it backfired and you ran
In search of higher love and a new beginning
Now you're still dwelling on the past
I'm telling you >>come on...I would still take a bullet for you>come on...
Not so long ago it backfired and you ran
In search of higher love and a new beginning
Now you're still dwelling on the past
Will you fight on my side?
Will you stand by me until you fall?
I'm the deaf, you're the blind
Lead me out of this maze
I'm out of time
You're out there, I'm still in here
Hoping this day would never come
Now it's time to get away
I was hoping this day would never come
Fragile you are
and yet the strongest by far
who's to save us now
that you've turned weak ?
I can see it in your eyes
I can feel it in my gut
now we've really reached
the point of no return
we've all been traumatized
we were all a part of the revolution
we call the truth a lie
too much got lost in translation
from my heart to your ears
transforming words to tears
as vibrations of a string
become a sound
I realize we're frail
burned out and pale
do you think we'll ever learn to love again ?
we've all been traumatized
we were all a part of the revolution
we call the truth a lie
Saw you looking so sad
Like everything is gone
So you left them all
Just leave them all behind
Just realize the water is way over our heads
I don't worry much, cause I'm halfway dead
So why are you crying?
Why are you crying?
Can you tell me why, can you tell me how?
Can you tell me why aren't you happy now?
Whatever it is, it's really over now
Can you tell me why, can you tell me now?
We took them by surprise
By leaving this place
Some thoughts we left behind
Some good and some sad
You should know
I hold you in my arms...
You should know
We got lost inside a stormdazed and hurt we fought it throughdrawn to the light both detached heading into the unknown
Whenever you wanted me
I was there for you and by a torch of faith I set myself on fire
How long must I wait for you?
I just can't get you off my mind)
How long must I wait for you?
(being apart is wasting time)
There's a voice inside my head telling me to go on alone that I'd stand a better chance to get thru this on my own
Whenever you wanted me
I was there for you
and by a torch of faith
I set myself on fire
How long must I wait for you?
(I just can't get you off my mind)
How long must I wait for you?
Should've seen this coming
should've known this
shouldn't have let it happen
my mistake allright
stuck again
doing my thing
too alike yet far apart
what felt so good once
is breaking me
and tearing us apart again
Don't you see
we're in this together
you and me
one on one forever
Don't you see
we're in this together
you and me
one on one forever
I know it's self inflicted
we're way to desperate
way too addicted
but I can't help the way I feel
i know it's time to be strong
now when all hope is gone
and when what felt so good once
is breaking me
and tearing us apart again
Don't you see
we're in this together
you and me
one on one forever
Don't you see
we're in this together
you and me
one on one forever
and in your troubled eyes I see
someone who carried me somehow
like footprints in the sand
you've been behind me all along
we got it wrong from the start
now it's you and me let's hit it on
don't you see it's you and me
against the world
'cause we're in this together
you and me
one on one forever
Don't you see
we're in this together
you and me
I saw you take the first lingering steps away from me
Towards something, maybe towards someone
I hear you say the words that once changed me
I hear you play that 12-inch I bought you
I hope you feel the same way now as you did then
But you probably don't feel anything...
I hold your hand so you won't steal anything
I take your drugs so you can't feel anything
I hold you tight so you don't lose everything
But I can't hold you like this forever
You broke my heart
And you made me blind
You tied my hands so that I couldn’t fight
Yeah, you broke my heart
And made me blind
You cursed my path now I can’t find...
Restless moving on
It’s a battle for your life, you better run
Together they come strong
Now you realize what’s been going on
You broke my heart
And you made me blind
You tied my hands so that I couldn’t fight
Yeah, you broke my heart
And made me blind
You cursed my path now I can’t find......peace of mind
Poison on your lip
Expecting someone else to die from it
She stole another soul
Trapped, imprisoned under her control
You’re exposed now, I’m back to "square one" again
So much clearer now, for good I’m breaking the chain
I don’t need you, I’ve fallen for a scam
I never asked you to come into my life, you destroyed what I am
When you broke my heart
And you made me blind
You tied my hands so that I couldn’t fight
Yeah, you broke my heart
And made me blind
In a twisted dream
I met a wandered girl
Her eyes sore tragedy
Filled with mascara tears
Hollywood jesus
Met the wandered girl
Like a gaffe giant teases
Step into my world
An illustrated dream
With a friendly fire
I was hollywood jesus
For feeling every desire
Girl with masacara tears
And eyes of tragedy
Like a twisted dream
Burned friendly fire
Divine insanity
You and me, friendly fire
Misery
Maltreatment
Weakness
Suspicion
Discriminate
Ashes to ashes
And dust to dust
Opression
Peace
Forgiveness
Fear
There?s something cold and blank behind her smile
She?s standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
'Cause you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
All the drugs in this world
Won?t save her from herself
Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a polaroid
Lost all her dolls
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today today
Today to run away
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
All the drugs in this world
Won?t save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
All the drugs in this world
Won?t save her from herself
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
All the drugs in this world
Won?t save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
All the drugs in this world
Well he was in Thailand based.
She was an airforce wife.
He used to fly weekends, it was the easy life.
But then
it turned around, and he began to change.
She didn't
wonder then, she didn't think it strange.
But then he
got a call, he had to leave that night.
He couln't say
too much, but it would be alright.
He didn't need to
pack, they'd meet the next night.
He had a job to do,
flying to Cambodia.
And as the nights passed by, she
tried to trace the past.
The way he used to look, the way
he used to laugh.
I guess she'll never know, what got
inside his soul.
She couldn't make it out, just
couldn't take it all.
He had the saddest eyes the girl
had ever seen.
He used to cry some nights, as though he
lived a dream.
And as she held him close, he used to search
her face.
As though she knew the truth, lost inside
Cambodia.
But then a call came through, they said
he'd soon be home.
She had to pack a case and they
would make a rendez-vous.
But now the year has passed and
not a single word and
all the love she knew has disappeared
out in the haze.
And now the years have passed
without a single word.
But there is only one thing left I
know for sure,
Watching from above
The deep blue seas
The yellow fields
And all the green
But in between
I see grey smoke
Cancer like black spots
Looks just like LA
But there is much more
There is much more to this
Than you can see
There is much more to this
I guarantee - just wait and see
The aeroplanes flying by
They carry paperclips
And young blond girls
There is much more
There is much more to this
Black Pawn
so now your back, you want to fight again
no mercy me 'cause I already know your game
I know why you're here you want to see me slain
four thousand years it's been the same
feeling tired , feeling numb
how could I have been so dumb
I let you in under my skin
to be ditched and left alone
I see fire in the sky
you turn me down, I wonder why
one day revenge will be all mine
until then I'll walk alone
for a second time you're coming on again
your faithful pawns working hard to drive me insane
try to keep my head high in times of rain
drying my tears now trying to cover up the pain
feeling tired , feeling numb
how could I have been so dumb
I let you in under my skin
to be ditched and left alone
I see fire in the sky
you turn me down, I wonder why
one day revenge will be all mine
until then I'll walk alone
feeling tired , feeling numb
how could I have been so dumb
I let you in under my skin
to be ditched and left alone
I see fire in the sky
you turn me down, I wonder why
one day revenge will be all mine
Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
But there's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes and it's what nobody knows
Well every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
[Bizarre Love Triangle lyrics on
Whenever I get this way I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself that if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
Bitter and hardened heart
Aching waiting for life to start
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning then you'll wake up
If only I don't bend and break
[Bend And Break lyrics on
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
I'll meet you on the other side
I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I hate to play my part
in this twisted odyssey
which seems to last forever
I'm a disharmonic key
in a wicked symphony
it seems the more I hurt, the better
it's way too dark to see
I'm drained of energy
corrupted and exploited
I've cried enough for you
you've cried enough over me
the never-ending game we play
one day you'll want me again
one day you'll love me again
What's with your head?
Controlled, dumbed down
Since your life began
They play us like fools
We sell out to be in
A "bread and circus" game
What's going on, you're sedated again?
Already wasted half your life
Stone cold hearted and arrogant
They teach "Ignorance is bliss"
Now I lay me down to rest
But I can't get no sleep
It's getting late, you still won't listen
I'd better stay awake
They dumbed us down and
Slowly changed our thoughts
Now we believe in nothing
But never-ending wars
Give me your eyes that I might see
Blind man kissing my hands
The sun is humming my head turns to dust
As he plays on his knees
As he plays on his knees
The sand and the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
And I laugh as I drift in the wind
Blind dancing on a beach of stone
Cherish the faces as they wait for the end
A sudden hush across the water
And we're here again
The sand and the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
[Incomprehensible]
And the sky and the impossible explode
Held for one moment I remember a song
An impression of sound
Then everything is gone forever
Strange day
Lost in the depths, the depths of your eyes.
I couldn't resist, why should I?
I want to relax, I want to feel free.
I want to be you, you want to be me.
I look at you, I look at your face.
You took my hand, just in case.
Forever with you, you're all I can see.
Now I am you, do you want to be me?
Why are you always hiding?
You keep searchin for yourself.
Your minds are far away.
You try to act just like them.
You always do what they say.
Use up today
Act your own way
Don't be one of them there's not so blind
You are causing me pain when you are acting that way.
I'm wrapped around your fingertips, I beg you to stay.
I always thought that we were two of a kind,
but now we're not, now you can kiss my behind.
Oh, you know I tried, but now I rather die
than be with you again.
I always tried but now I realize
I won't go through this again.
Believe it or not but I'm still alive.
You're feeding on my blindless like a kick in the eye.
Everytime you hurt me ... (?)I try to stand up but you are in my way.
A metallic beat keeps us insane
For every new are a different color blink
Sixty leds flashing, just one makes a gain
You copy and paste yourself into my brain
Patterns to be followed, arrangements to be made
Track to be programmed, new patterns to be laid
You should fit the beat in the same frame
You always find a way into my brain
From a blinking chip to be fit into my heart
We'll build a perfect brute, you played it from the start
From your ? to my ears, through pleasure and pain
You always find a way back into my brain
Ashes to ashes

Kommer noe sånt til å skje her i Norge?
Jeg vet ikke
Jeg vet ikke
Jeg vet ikke

Will something like that happen here in Norway?
You are reaching your goals, but I'm still trapped inside of mind.
Before the break of day, you will be gone and far away.
In solitude with no place to run or hide,
I hear my own mind cry and I fall just to see you rise.
And I will go down on my knees and prey the best that I can.
I want you to be near.
And I will go down on my knees and try to make you understand
my deepest fear.
With pain in my heart, I will travel on my own.
To a place inside where I can be alone.
In solitude with no place to run or hide.
"Let's see..."
"What's the best way to explain our cease stereosonic sound?"
"Make everything clear..."
You're such scum.Stop doing it.
Do you warship them?
Do you really?
Stop war.
Fuck those going to war.
Make them stop.
Wrack'em to pieces.
Most of us don't want a war.
Stupid murder scum.
You're such scum
"must be a simpler way"
Stop war.
Those who wants to go to war, wrack'em to pieces
"It's the best way to explain our cease stereosonic sound"
To pieces.You're such scum.
Sort it out.
Those who want's a war, wrack'em to pieces.
"must be a simpler way"
You're dangerous 'cause you're honest
You're dangerous, you don't know what you want
Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot
For any spirit to haunt
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey
You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left in a beach
Well, you tell me things I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey sha la la
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna fall at the foot of thee?
Well you stole it 'cause I needed the cash
And you killed it 'cause I wanted revenge
Well you lied to me 'cause I asked you to
Baby, can we still be friends?
Hey hey sha la la
Hey hey sha la la
[Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna fall at the foot of thee?
Oh, the deeper I spin
Oh, the hunter will sin for your ivory skin
Took a drive in the dirty rain
To a place where the wind calls your name
Under the trees the river laughing at you and me
Hallelujah, heavens white rose
The doors you open
I just can't close
Don't turn around, don't turn around again
Don't turn around, your gypsy heart
Don't turn around, don't turn around again
Don't turn around, and don't look back
Come on now love, don't you look back!
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna taste your salt water kisses?
Who's gonna take the place of me?
Who's gonna ride your wild horses?
You're the proud crowd waiting forthe guinea pigs to die somewhere tonight.
You can't find the time to celebrate andyou have no goodbyes to give away.
You are always telling lies,you never show me what you feel inside.
You're boring, you're a waste of time.Please leave me and I leave you all behind.
We decide what's wrong and right.We rather loose than fight.
We're going down. And down.
Without us you can not exist.Without us you don't get no kicks,

"Mylord, forgive me, for I have sinned.
has tempted me yet again,
until I found myself judging all the sinners around me.
I know I should feel pity, but my anger blinds me.
Daring me? Sorry motion.
Jamming me? Never break the oath.
Sin for salvation
Like leaves we flow
From a need to nothing
I said give me a blow
Do not forsake me
A breath from the past
Kissing me
The blood (??)
I never felt so calm before
The entire world deceased
So bring us all
Let's hallucinate
(??)
(??)
Of no mans resurrection
Because you know it to
(??)
Reflection from the death
A meaning of it all
It all occures as a stich
Just a stich
Like a bolt from the blue, descending from the sky
My brain collapses in the dead of night
Too much for my psyche, another crack-up
If you're awake, join me
All the things you see, the same as what I see
We listen to the sound of nervous breakdown
A death that blends with a will to live
One of the things that freaks me out
I'm waiting for a sign, have to leave this place behind
Where no one knows my name
Then later we'll calm down, we'll both break down and cry
(And say) our last goodbye.(instr.)
I'll break the chains, I'm out of line
I'm living on my nerve, last days of ninety-nine
Nightmare, conspiracy, depression and lunacy
I need to feel, walled up inside
Locked up, messed up, maybe there is no tomorrow
All this thinking does me no good
I'll miss you my love, but it's about time
That this world goes up in flames.
"The questions I've been asking is quite simple beyound my reach"
"Where does evil live?"
"Is evil in the flesh?"
I sit down in despair, no way to run away
Couldn't stand a nice new day with you
The fuse went out today
Who's around me? Everything got dark
The space behind our closer goes through corridores of pain
I ran through corridores of pain
But I'm not afraid to die
'Cause I'm not afraid to die
I saw the creature reach me as I closed my faith to die
The plastic in the floor are reached out,
you see it in the sky
Thunderballs are softening my fears
I know where I am heading, watch the world right through my tears
I watch the world right through my tears
And I'm not afraid to die
And I'm not afraid to die
"I've got negative radio contact"
Not afraid to die
Not afraid to die
"Where does evil live?"
Plasmatic drug sensation, going weakened through the year
And in his reach his target slowly dies.
He dies in distant fear
But now the searchers begin before we make ground,
Still searching for the truth;
Why am I here, why am I bound?
Why am I here, why am I bound?
Why am I here, why am I bound?
And I'm not afraid to die
And I'm not afraid to die
In the deep it's nowhere where you can see,
Tell me why I feel this pain.
Help me out while you still can.
Tell me why I feel this way.
Help me out while you still can.
So take me away.
We rise up to the sky
Creating, and killing time
We reach for the best, leaving for the shelter
We cannot stop building, we'll be scraping the sky
Someday, somehow, we'll be so blind that we'll be scraping the sky
Emotional dissorted, we are looking for a stood
We're blaming ourself cause we know we should
Expect things to happen if you hurry to the sky
So kill your anger and immortalize
Lick my lips, I'm on fire
Lick my lips, I desire
Your mind is stimulated, figure despair is running through your veins
Stand up and pull the trigger, save yourself and smash the race
We race up to the sky
Creating, and killing time
We books for the best, reading for a shelter
Maybe if we hurry, we'll be scraping the sky
Someday, somehow, we'll be so blind that we'll be scraping the skies
Emotional dissorted we are looking for a stood
We're blaming ourself cause we know we should
Expect things to happen if you hurry to the sky
So kill your anger and immortalize
Someday, somehow, we'll be so blind that we'll be scraping the skies
Someday, somehow, we'll be so blind that we'll be scraping the skies
In a garden in a house of love
Sitting lonely on a plastic chair
The sun is cruel when he hides away
I need a sister - I'll just stay
A little girl, a little guy
In a church or in a school
Little Jesus are you watching me
I'm so young - just eighteen
Shi-shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On

In a garden in a house of love
There's nothing real, just a coat of arms
I'm not the pleasure that I used to be
So young - just eighteen
Shi-shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
I don't know why I dream this way
The sky is purple and things are right, every day
I don't know why, it's just this world's so far away
But I won't fight and I won't hate,
Well not today
Shi-shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shi-shine On
Shi-shi-shi-shine On

Something is reaching out for you.Opposites of struggeling, it seams strange justLike they would grab you and use you their wayAnd change your mind within.
You're sure you hate them, but you're sure that they return.
They leave you sitting separate, they show you no concern.
But they are afraid because they have to go back
To the place where they all shall burn.
Once more you're talking in your sleep.
You're whispering my name.
Once more you're frightened as a child.
Your mind has been altered again.
Your skin is pale and your travelling with fear.
Fight back or they're gonna win.
Spirits from beyond has tempered with your brain.
Wake up before you go insane.
"Did you ask her to marry you during a sexual intercourse?"
" Did you?"
Don't mess with evil forces, there are spirits everywhere.

Come, go, step inside, bring me news from the dying
world.
(You thinkers and killers) you're spreading your
disease among us.
Warm sweat, no regret, all you see is the TV set,
while people around you are dying like flies.
Non-Stop Violence. They feed us cascades
of non-believers dying in the sand.
Feeding us with violence, we face the fall of man.
Believe me and catch me if you can.

So I took shelter in tomorrow
Tomorrow will bring a brand new day
Think I'll make it right tomorrow,
think I need more sleep today.
Lets make peace again tomorrow,
I need a will to stay away.
I guess I'll always hate tomorrow
“Your name please?”
”Garland Briggs.”
“Garland, What do you fear most in the world?”
“The possibility that love is not enough.”
I turn around to talk
I face your eyes
Fight replaces fright
To my surprise
I feel as I'm falling
And I see
Your soul in your eyes
As I die.
I try to stand tall (say goodbye)
You roll your eyes (roll your eyes)
You feel the same way I do
To my surprise
I feel as we're drowning in the deepest sea
You die, you're gone
Just like me.
Still your eyes are staring at me
Empty as the sky
In this moment of tranquility
I realize
This is goodbye.
Still her eyes are staring at me
Empty as the sky (Empty as the sky)
In this moment of tranquility
I realize
That this is goodbye.
Her eyes are staring at me
Empty as the sky (Empty as the sky)
In this moment of tranquility
I realize
That this is goodbye.
Her eyes are staring at me (Her eyes are staring)
Empty as the sky (Empty as the sky)
In this moment of tranquility
I realize
That this is goodbye.
Still her eyes are staring at me (Her eyes are staring)
Empty as the sky (Empty as the sky)

We've gone a long way while learning
still our hearts kept on burning
we've gone right, we've gone straight
and ended up far - out
we've reaped the fruits of deception
opened the doors of perception
and burned down all the bridges
we came across
Chours:
when will you be whole again ?
we've both been down that road
going nowhere
still you ask is love to blame ?
when will you be whole again ?
we've both been down that road
going nowhere
still you ask is love to blame ?

Don't leave me, don't go away.
Stay beside me for another day.
My love for you will never die.
Don't leave me, don't go away.
Stay near me for one more day.
You know my love will never die.
I would rather be in your arms tonight.
Finally to close my eyes, and you to hold me tight.
I would rather be in your arms tonight.
Forever in your arms, you said. Forever in my heart.
My love for you will make us both fly higher.
Driven by the power that is burning in my heart.
I know my faith, and you will keep us together.
Forever in your arms, you said. Forever in my heart.
My love for you will make us both fly higher.
I sense your presence in this room, I feel that you are near.
So hold me close and whisper love is forever.
Love is forever
Oh my love, it’s time
You know how it feels
You read between the lines,
Know me better than I do.
I lost again, my friend
You know I’m not a saint
You’ve known it all this time
Still you’ve been waiting for me.
Oh my love, it’s time

(Please) Come lie next to me
No lies (?)
You and me are one
They say reality is an illusion
We all create our own
So who is right or wrong?
Yes, I am still searching for the truth
When did you stop looking?
Where did we go wrong?
Every time you create a problem
You have the remedy
The same old strategy
I ate the red pill, no turning back
The gloves are off now
Where did we go wrong?
Where did it all go wrong?
The fruit of my imagination
A blessing or a curse
I'm a stranger in a plastic nation
Stuck in reverse
Take a look from my perspective
It's so obvious to me
I can't stand this narrow-mindedness
We'll always disagree
We're incompatible
For all this time
They've deceived the nations
It always makes me sick
I don't belong here
If I turn off, then engage me please
Count my heartbeat ...
Where did we go wrong?
Molded to fit into a system
A brain-dead society
No questions being asked
Our minds are bent
Raise your fists and yell
"Power to the sheeple!"
Where did we go wrong?
The fruit of my imagination
A blessing or a curse
I'm a stranger in a plastic nation
Stuck in reverse
Take a look from my perspective
It's so obvious to me
I can't stand this narrow-mindedness
We'll always disagree
I'm half asleep again.My shell is sleeping, my soul is not.
I'm still confused, to many thoughts.
I fear, I fear temptation.
Weird thoughts inside my mind.
Cruel thoughts are tempting me.
I want to do what I know is wrong,
and I fear, I fear temptation.
Take me away, fill me with with desire.
Teach me how to live a life without regret.
I'm half asleep again...
Something's got a grip on my mind.
Forcing me to forget about you.
Makes me feel that I have to, that I need to.
I feel, I feel temptation.
As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what's right
And they wonder sometimes when they see all the
Sadness and pain the truth brings to light
'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
'Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret
As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
And in darkness all that I can see
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know nothing of
At mercy are the meek
'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
'Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
"I miss her body."
"Electronic warfare."
Free lives to live. A trap beside my soul.
Foreign chaser. Beaming target.
Lost my shield, it's bullet proof.
Pressing buttons and shifting gear,
you run away from what you fear.
She shoots to kill.
Electronic warfare.
"Electronic Warfare."
One life to go. You shoot before you aim.
I'm reaching for a killer tar, the only thing I claim.
Time is running out.
Suppose it's not a game?
You reload your gun.Electronic warfare.
All I want is some energy
The ultimate discovery
Electric blue for me
Never more to be free
Electricity
Nuclear and HEB
Carbon fuels from the sea
Wasted electricity
All I want is some energy
Electricity
All we need is to learn to save
A gift for man to throw away
It doesn't change the city cars
The alternative is only one
The final sources of energy
Solar electricity
As we dwell inside the safe zones that we've made
Where nothing but earthly pleasures seems to matter
The only light we see is from the screens
No will to feel or explore the forgotten dimensions
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still for a moment
And I guess we will be making history
When we all join hands just to watch the sky
(For a moment)
Our selfish lives have made us all go blind
One day we'll awake by a bright light on the horizon
In one second every eye will see the same
And this blinding light will draw all our attention
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still for a moment
For the very first time and it's meant to be
We'll forget about ourselves and share the moment
Deep red is bluring my eyes
I made a new clash, dare till to lie
I want you to explain your feelings for me
You bleed on your skin, it's what makes me feel
I will wait for you to scream and shout,
but you open your mouth and blood runs out.
You open your mouth and blood runs out.
The knife cuts through her skin
and your heart starts beating faster
You feel the pressure within
as you look into her eyes
Well he was thailand based
She was an airforce wife
He used to fly weekends
It was the easy life
But then it turned around
And he began to change
She didn't wonder then
She didn't think it strange
But then he got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldn't say too much
But it would be alright
He didn't need to pack
They'd meet the next night
He had a job to do
Flying to cambodia
And as the nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess she'll never know
What got inside his soul
She couldn't make it out
Just couldn't take it all
He had the saddest eyes
The girl had ever seen
He used to cry some nights
As though he lived a dream
Ans as she held him close
He used to search her face
As though she knew the truth
Lost inside cambodia
But then a call came through
They said he'd soon be home
She had to pack a case
And they would make a rendez-vous
But now a year has passed
And not a single word
And all the love she knew
Has disappeared out in the haze
And now the years have passed
With not a single word
But there is only one thing left
I know for sure
"The holy inquisition finds you guilty of herecy, and you
and your decendants must be cleansed in blood
The holy inquisition"
I see the sinners suffering.I hear them screaming and I watch them burn and die.It ain't looking good but nevermind
cause now they fade away.
The inquisition has done its job.
The deads fuel system blowing in the wind.
Their hearts were black and full of sin
and now they fade away.
