As I turn of the TV-set and look into your eyes
What do I do? - Rage!
What do I feel? - Rage!
Brought into this world without a clue
[Music & Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
The dust that settled in the eyes
Has covered a thousand lies
Like maggots ate the brain
And time is moving rapidly
For those who are to see
A paradigma changed
And the rain's falling like tears you've shed
(keep on falling)
While the spiders crawl out of your bed
(I see them crawling)
And the raven sings songs for the dead
(sing your songs for the dead)
Wake the nightmares in my head
Like me there were more that have tried
To set a few things right
To take the dreamers hand
Their world is falling from the stars
They start a thousand wars
It's coming to an end
And the rain's falling like tears you've shed
(keep on falling)
While the spiders crawl out of your bed
(I see them crawling)
And the raven sings songs for the dead
(sing your songs for the dead)
Wake the nightmares in my head
Never swallow what you've heared before
Don't believe in what you see
It won't stay like it appears no more
If you don't awake in time
You never will again
And the rain's falling like tears you've shed
(keep on falling)
While the spiders crawl out of your bed
(I see them crawling)
And the raven sings songs for the dead
(sing your songs for the dead)
Wake the nightmares in my head
[Music & Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
What we feel, it might be so unreal
And what we know, it's under construction
We have learned, the truth, it can be turned
Well, it just depends on what we believe is real
In secrecy our mission will be
Let's create our future aware
I'll see you in heaven one day
Or I'll see you in hell
Yeah, we'll be where we think we will stay
I'll see you in heaven or hell
You and me, we think of what will be
It's so hard to trust in that we'll be given
Fear, so strong, will surely lead us wrong
It's gonna bring us down, we better believe it's real
In secrecy our mission will be
Let's create our future aware
I'll see you in heaven one day
Or I'll see you in hell
Yeah, we'll be where we think we will stay
I'll see you in heaven or hell
No limit, I'm in it, it's all inside my mind
I'll be there where I dare, it's all my choice
In secrecy our mission will be
Let's create our future aware
I'll see you in heaven one day
Or I'll see you in hell
Yeah, we'll be where we think we will stay
I'll see you in heaven or hell
[The Troggs Cover]
I can't stand still cause you got me goin'
Your pants are low and your hips are showin'
I watch you yea while you're standin' there
Your skin tight jeans and your sexy hair
Don't want you goin' round with no one else
Cause when I'm with you I can't control myself, yeah
Defenses down and you got me shakin'
You got me so that my nerves are achin'
If you knew me and your were in my world
Your knees would bend an' your hair would curl
You make me move yea like no one else
When I'm with you I can't control myself
I've got this feeling deep inside of me
It makes me be what I'm supposed to be
It makes me feel alright
When I'm with you at night an' we love
An' we love
Ya hold me so with this big temptation
This kind of feelin' could move the nation
An' I'm okay when I'm here with you
I do the things that ya want me to
I don't do these things for no one else
When I'm with you I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
[Music & Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
Once, eons back in time from here
Long before man was born
They came from somewhere out of space
Shaped the young planet's face
And more, they made all to be, everything we see is their work
So good, the system and it?s frame played a perfect game
Until the other came...
It was all for the great old ones
Those who created life
And life carried on and on and on
They gave all for the great old ones
Under the new born sun
Where life carried on and on and on...
So everything was good to be
When some would fall from grace
Birth of the evil energy
Fear reaches back in those days
And hell wasted all to be, all the bad we see is it's work
To save the system and it's frame, the Soundchaser came
Some call them Perfect man...
It was all for the great old ones
Those who created life
And life carried on and on and on
They gave all for the great old ones
Under the new born sun
Where life carried on and on and on...
Life carried on for the great old ones
In the planets history there are secrets, you will see
Our nature has a source. Good or evil comes from those...
And all, all their secret deeds never could complete what they need
Cause hell wasted all to be, all the bad we see; 'till the Soundchaser came...
It was all for the great old ones
Those who created life
And life carried on and on and on
They gave all for the great old ones
Under the new born sun
Where life carried on and on and on...
Life carried on for the great old ones
There's a new kind of love, you're longing for
And I will be there, waiting at your door
This is all where you want to be, want to be
At the end of eternity
Now the time comes when all connects to one
And a bridge will be built from dark to sun
At the dawn of the century, come with me
It's the end of eternity
And there is so much more to give
And there is so much more to live
Come to me, come to me, set it free
The end of eternity
The end of eternity has begun, has begun
There's a new kind of life on second floor
And you will be there, knocking at my door
This is all where I want to be, want to be
At the end of eternity
And there is so much more to give
And there is so much more to live
Come to me, come to me, set it free
The end of eternity
The end of eternity has begun, has begun
[Music & Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
Defenders of the ancient life we are
Defenders of the ancient world at war
And if we're gonna die, keep that spark
Defenders of the ancient life we are, yes we are
Hunters came the night before
They brought to our homes their war, bloody war
All the others, just like me
Have to face the enemy, it's gotta be
They have all been innocent of starting all this waste
But the demons ran a deadly race
We were made to force them down and end their killing aims
To save the creator's precious lifes
Defenders of the ancient life we are
Defenders of the ancient world at war
And if we're gonna die, keep that spark
Defenders of the ancient life we are, yes we are
Noone ever gave us names
We were forged in fire and flames, red hot flames
Crafted to protect the ones
Chasing every unknown sound that's around
We were made to force them down and end their deadly games
To save the creator?s precious lifes
They have all been innocent of starting all this waste
But the demons had their killing aims...
Defenders of the ancient life we are
Defenders of the ancient world at war
And if we're gonna die, keep that spark
Defenders of the ancient life we are, yes we are
I'm on the run, but I don't know
What is the scare, so there's no way to go
What do I fear to cross my way
It's gonna come like a kick in the a...
Father you've warned me, so I should have known
Something's not right
Set the alarm now, before it's too late
Make it allright
All I want is my own integrity
All I want is a chance of being free
It could be heaven on earth if we are one
All I want is to end what I've begun
That's all I want
It's getting hard to understand
What is the right thing and what's a dead end
Don't wanna live like in disgrace
´Cause in the end it's a kick in the face
You tread on me and you give me the blame
This is not right
Don't mean to harm you, so treat me the same
Then it's allright
All I want is my own integrity
All I want is a chance of being free
It could be heaven on earth if we are one
All I want is to end what I've begun
[Rage]
SPIRITS COMING FROM THE MIND
WAKING UP MY DEEPEST HORRORS
CAPTURE MY THOUGHTS, MAKE ME BLIND
WEIRD, 'CAUSE I DON'T WANT TO SEE
THE ABYSS OF MY POSSIBILITIES
SCARED I CAN'T LOOK AWAY
IT HAS COME TO MY SIDE
SISTER DEMON - MY BRIDE
I WANT YOU, I NEED YOU
AND I HAVE SET YOU FREE
YOU'RE ALWAYS RIGHT BEHIND ME
I KNOW THE DEVIL'S SENT YOU TO ME
YOU WANT ME, YOU NEED ME
NOW THAT I'VE SET YOU FREE
LOOK ALWAYS RIGHT BEHIND YOU
YOU KNOW THE DEVIL'S SENT ME TO YOU
WHAT HAS STARTED AS A LONGING
ALMOST IS POSESSION NOW
IT DRIVES ME AGAIN AND AGAIN
PUR A LIGHT INTO YOUR WINDOW
MAYBE I CAN FIND A HOLD
I RUN AGAINST MYSELF 'TILL I FIND THE END
SENT BY THE DEVIL
Why is it that some people always get what they want
How come they always know the time to choose
And can you make a difference in how your life evolves
If you knew what it is then
You'd never be the one to lose
The intuition to be sure
If something's wasted time or purely what you need
To succeed
You want to understand it, the universal law
So you can send a message to the stars
Just like a silent prayer, an energy exchange
There is an answer for you
It's out there waiting in your heart
If you are open you will hear
You have to be brave, so don't fear and you'll be there
Just beware...
You want it, you'll get it
Try to live so that you won't regret it
You want it, you'll get it
If you only try to live and let it
Find it's way to you
I believe in the dark
I am afraid of the world
‘Cause it scares me, I know
People don't like me, talk behind my back
Avoiding the look in my disfigured face
I'm just waiting for the moon to come and set me free
And I'm just waiting for moonlight and then my eyes you can see
I'm just waiting for the moon to come and set me free
Because the moonlight can release me from my misery
Hide my face in the day
Tonight I'll set myself free
I'm addicted too moonlight
Run with the wind, feel the wet in the air
A pleasure for me and my distorted soul
I'm just waiting for the moon to come and set me free
And I'm just waiting for moonlight and then my eyes you can see
I'm just waiting for the moon to come and set me free
Because the moonlight can release me from my misery
Hid my face in the day
Tonight I'll set myself free
Run with the wind, feel the wet in the air
Oh, how I'm longing for it
A pleasure for me and my distorted soul
I feel like the cat walkin' on a wall
An antarctic land, deadly unknown
where we explored a mountain range
and on the highest ridge we found remains of buildings
like no man's eye had ever seen
A city forgotten on top of the world
and entry we found in a stonewall
and walked a stairway built aeons ago
to streets and houses covered under ice and snow
Walls that had mosaics with pictures and reliefs
faces that no eyes'd ever seen, l like half flesh and half of steel
they had headphones stuck to their skulls
no muscles, just wires, a technical pulse
The creatures look weird, scary and strange
the art on the walls, it told us their tale
They came from a planet lightyears away from here
to bring knowledge, truth and culture to this undeveloped place
the fathers out of space
Before life crept out of water mother earth was occupied
but the climate changed the borders, now they are lost in the ice
Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice
They build up life from desert and stones
Our planet grew up helped by elder ones
Then the ice came and they had to move away
to the middle earth and then the stories on the pictures ended
when they had left the land
Before life crept out of water mother earth was occupied
but the climate changed the borders, now they are lost in the ice
Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice
All their buildings, streets and stonewalls sleep in this forgotten place
but what happened to the creatures when they were lost in the ice
Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice
What a strange and awful vision for us all
it made us shiver to the bone
what if now some of these creatures still survived
in the caves under the Pole?
Before life crept out of water...
And then we walked beneath the city, hours and hours
when suddenly we heard a strange and distant sound
all I remember is my flight from this dark place
a flight from the alien creature's face, my ancestor from space
Lost in the ice
Whoever was these old remains, his blood is flowing in my veins
Shadows in my mind, it's dead, all I had inside
bunched is the old fear, just to let a new one appear
just be quiet, my heart, and keep the peace in the dark
blossom's better than decay, there must be more for me, I can't wait
Oh, when will you leave, eternal night, you lead to the nevermore
end up this chain existence, now, the best is yet to come for me
There's light into the darkness
so come and lay down by my side
there's light into the darkness
come on and rest your mind in my arms
let me enlight your darkness
there's nothing better than a friend
give light into my darkness...
I've heard a distant voice, it said aloud the word I'm waiting for
Just keep quiet in peace, beware your heart in the dark, the word is here
Can you see the colours in the new born leaves on every tree
rescue can be found in each thing, if one just gets into it
There's light into the darkness
so come and lay down by my side
there's light into the darkness
come on and rest your mind in my arms
let me enlight your darkness
there's nothing better than a friend
give light into my darkness...
free of pain, free from doubts, free of fear
Can you see the colours in the new born leaves on every tree
rescue can be found in each thing, if one just gets into it
There's light into the darkness
so come and lay down by my side
there's light into the darkness
so let me lay down by your side
there's light into the darkness...
Sometimes when I get this feeling
for a very subtile thing,
then I need a break, a healing
from the daily bore I'm in.
If I didn't have these moments
I'd be going crazy soon,
so I'll pack my things tonight and go.
Let the night begin,
the fall of darkness washes my sins,
the rising moon will pick me up
to find an opened mind...
Yes I simply love these moments
getting lost within the night.
And my friends, the dead, will teach me
what I need to know for life.
They all made their own mistakes
but have died in early death.
I don't want to end like everyone.
Let the night begin,
the fall of darkness washes my sins,
the rising moon will pick me up
to find an opened mind..
Let the night begin,
my sight's reduced to eyes within,
the light of moon will shelter me,
They say we'll have war
for peace it shall be too late
I'm a good fighter and I'm
not a friend of debates
I'm leaving, I'm leaving you
Little girl in the west
your daddy's in the east
mother's tears made pictures wet
turning sleepless in her bed.
He's leaving, he's leaving now
It's too late
too late to turn around, your last goodbye
Fighting the aggressor back
right is on your side
little girl in the cast
the system filled her head with lies
do I care if she's alive
or if she dies for my victory?
As long as I'm a TV-star
my conscience wouldn't go so far
She's leaving, she's leaving life.
Some say we fight against ourselves
their weapons made by our hands
if it's sure I've lost already
now I hear my wife, she's calling
don't leave me, don't leave me now
It's too late.
Too late to turn around, your last goodbye
Goodbye...
"I want to know where you are
please let me know where you are!"
They lowered my body in a dark hole
the dry ground now covers my remains
I stood at their side and watched them crying
They can't know their tears they are in vain
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
I can see, I can hear, I can be, be forevermore...
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
Where shall I be in this demension?
Where are the others I await?
is this existence mean forever?
is there a door that leds away?
All four winds together driving me forever
I'm not lost, I'm just alone
Nailed to a cross of isolation
My punishment is I'm all alone
Flying high, setting signs
we got the future in our veins
but still a long way to go
All we know has lost its size
if you're looking down from space.
Your problems are unreal at one blow
Does it make a sense at last
to learn the mistakes of the past?
Infected with an old disease
And today tomorrow waits
in another galaxy.
Waiting to take us away
We are the only truth?
How can we be so smug
like a child playing God...
I wish I knew
is it still far to go - -Invisible horizons
What is behind
the picture in my mind - Invisible horizons
It is many ages away
a life that's far beyond our rays
that we send out to get a sign
A million places there to be
it's only logical, you see
that we're not the centre of creation
We are the only truth?
How can we be so smug
like a child playing God...
I wish I knew
is it still far to go - -Invisible horizons
What is behind
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
And you can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
And you can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
And you can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
Wake up in the morning next day your way gone
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
So long, so long, so long and we're gone
And we're gone
Gone
And we're
And we're
And we're gone
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
Wake up in the morning next day and it's gone
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
And you can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself and you can only fool yourself
And you can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
Wake up in the morning next day and it's gone
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
So long, so long, so long and we're gone
And we're gone
Gone
And we're
And we're
And we're gone
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
You can only fool yourself for so long
Please stay here, don't run away and slam the door
I think we got to talk it over just once more
Are we ever right in the face of the big truth?
So why fighting for a lie?
Don't lose your faith
Whatever comes to you
Cause time works for those who believe
We'll get it right anew
Don't you lose your faith
Don't every turn away
I'm thinking about the truth there is
Forgotten in a lie
We are branches on the tree of life. We can
Only get together by touching with our leaves
But we got the same roots close in ourselves
So let's grow up to the sky
Don't you lose your faith
Don't ever turn away
I'm thinking about the trust there is
Forgotten in lie
Don't you lose your faith
Whatever comes to you
Cause time works for those who believe
We'll get it right anew
Like a story or a song
Sleeping till it will be sung
Our future lies unfolded
Let's forget it when we've done us wrong
After all you've put me through
There is always something new
Got to face the tests of time
Who tells sader stories?
Tears in broken eyes
telling 'bout the worries,
search for cure from whys.
A something to believe in, not leaving, still living.
There must have been a reason for all, she said.
Fading hours of pleasure and pain,
trust me now, it wasn't in vain.
In this life some things will remain
from fading hours.
Why didn't you answer?
You looked through me, it seemed.
It all's changed but I can't swear,
the whole scene's so unreal.
I'm still an unbeliever, won't leave you,
still live here.
There must have been a reason for all, she said.
Fading hours of plesure and pain,
trust me now, it wasn't in vain.
In this life some things will remain
from fading hours.
Fading hours, but my time stood still.
My missing shadow can't explain.
But the pictures on your table will,
they're showing me pale white,
the coffin's opened wide...
You're such a liar, when I first saw you
I really thought you'd be our man.
You started sighin' and caged us all in,
seems that we've built our hopes on sand
I can see your real self in your eyes.
You don't want to be my friend.
You speak with a forked tongue,
say "hi", but it means "go to hell" -
over and over again.
The face behind the mask.
All that you've done was for taking
and not for giving.
I've recognized what's within,
saw the face behind the mask.
You're such a coward, we brought you forward,
we gave you chances on and on.
But you just wasted what we invested,
now there's no way to carry on.
I can see your real self in your eyes.
You don't want to be my friend.
You speak with a forked tongue,
say "hi", but it means "go to hell" -
over and over again.
The face behind the mask.
All that you've done was for taking
and not for giving.
I've recognized what's within,
saw the face behind the mask.
Look in the mirror behind the mask.
You're such a loser, there's no excuses,
you'll never make it mark my words.
Forget your sighin, there is no way, man.
I'll never trust again in you, no!
I can see your real self in your eyes.
You don't want to be my friend.
You speak with a forked tongue,
say "hi", but it means "go to hell" -
over and over again.
The face behind the mask.
All that you've done was for taking
and not for giving.
I've recognized what's within,
There in the subway station, they shot him dead
He had broken the secrecy - Omerta
That's what they all will get,
They've got a job to do
The business is too important
to take a risk and so
Please don't get me wrong,
if you'd ever say a word
You'll have missed my friend,
this is what you'll get
Execution guaranteed
We are an old family, controlling the trade
Gun running for the white house. The CIA works
hand in hand with us. We must feed the flame of
hate and war in the third world, cause if they
kill themselves We deliver all they need for the
fall (it's big money) The all order and this is
what they get
Execution guaranteed
We choose, you loose
You - jeah, I've got a mission for you
Look - here, a list of men to execute
Shoot - you must shoot them, no one will find out
Truth - truth is a daughter of time
Execution guaranteed
The smell of danger is in the air
A few make the race but we all must pay the fare
We're to sit on a powder barrel
Waiting for the deadly blow
No one asked the silent masses
And I bet they don't know
Don't tell me this stock of arms ain't
There to be used in the end
The time has come to harvest what they've sown
There's no way forward, progress cannot grow
And they will se that they have failed
The time has passed them by, we must all pay
Just one step back could save for us the day
Why can't they see that they have failed
We send satellites to space
And we own the biggest missiles
We give millions of support for technology
But still we can't even live in peace with our neighbour
Most of us are insane of neuroses
Enough is enough - you can control
Enough is enough - those who don't know
Faster - this world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - when moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
All this misery in our minds will break free, you will see...
Social psychology - seek the key for our salvation
This science needs more support, it could help that
The understanding of the single person can grow,
But who pays
‘Cause if we stay weak we are much better to use
Enough is enough - head over heart
Enough is enough - right from the start
Faster - this world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - when moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
All this misery in our minds will break free, you will see...
Science is only as good or as bad
As the people who use it
And if we want to have a tomorrow
We should take ten percent of the money from our armies
And develop the minds of our nations
Enough is enough - you can control
Enough is enough - those who don't know
Faster - this world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - when moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
Faster - a victory ‘bout fear, this is the greatest glory
Believe me, the first step has been made
Bigger - the real progress - another quality in our way of life
From quantity to quality
I tell you Jesus Christ was just an ordinary man
But he was wise, much wiser than the rest
The few to see wrote tales 'bout him but time perverted
it all
The banner's changed, the world ain't changed at all
Forced to fight for law and order
In the name of God to slaughter
Living in this world could be a life in hell
They're around everywhere, can't you tell?
Echoes of evil
You know, they don't know what it is when they talk
'bout the law
The rights are wrong when only riches rule
You hear them say we're civilized but still blacks are
slaves
When money talks they won't hear all the cries
Forced to fight with law and order
In the name of God to slaughter
Dying at the front is tradition, you know
Just like fathers and grandfathers did
Echoes of evil
We're men - we're bound to fail but we can learn it
The ones who never face it will stay blind
We gained too much by science but we can't use it
Prepare your mind to stop before it's to late
The preacher's done the rites of Christ for a thousand
years or more
Believes in personified gods
Does he fear waking up to see it's not so easy
Opposing good 'n' bad as he did?
Forced to fight with law and order
In the name of God to slaughter
What is religion - shit in your brain
A blade of straw in oceans of life
Don't follow leaders, no matter what side
Though it's harder to live your ideals
Who do you think that you are
Don't tell me lies
You know exactly what you've done
You went beyond the limit
Don't close your eyes
The consequences might not be so nice
Life's a cycle, driving all the world
And I will be around
See you going down (down)
I am a real survivor
I'll see you going down
See your ass go down (down)
It's always best to laugh last
I'll see you going down
Well I see you going down
I've got my shit together
It's working well
Don't need permission for my deeds
And all these superheroes
Who know so well
You can go home and this will make my day
Life's a cycle, driving all the world
And I will be around
See you going down (down)
I am a real survivor
I'll see you going down
See your ass go down (down)
It's always best to laugh last (and I will dance on your grave )
And I will wave goodbye
When I see you going down...
All the evil that you're sending out
Is falling back on you
Life's a cycle, driving all the world
And I will be around
See you going down (down)
I am a real survivor
I'll see you going down
See your ass go down (down)
It's always best to laugh last (and I will dance on your grave )
And I will wave goodbye
No one knows the natural powers
They're astonished, they're afraid
Pushing forwards technology
They forgot just who they are
Once contented with fulfillment
Now they cannot get enough
The time has come to harvest what they're sown
There's no way forward, progress cannot grow
And they will see that they have failed
Deadly error
They fight against their own achievements
They fear what they once created
Suffocate in poisoned breezes
Once they conquered, now they're slaves
They are running from their own hell
They are running, cause they know
The time has come to harvest what they've sown
There's no way forward, progress cannot grow
And they will se that they have failed
Deadly error
A shadow
One whisper
Nothing to see
There is a pair of glowing eyes, a gruesome call
Streetwolf
Motionless
Just one breath
He demands tribute
An abased one
In restless pain
The grief feels like they'd
cut a piece out of his heart
Streetwolf
Whoo - Streetwolf's got you
Whoo - Streetwolf's got you
Look in the mirror,
a river of blood - your race is almost run
He's in your back, even there on each side,
in front another one
He grabs you at your throat,
his jaws will cut you into bits
It's just what he always did,
the thunder made his hits
Howling and hunting,
a raging revenge - substitutes can't satisfy
The loss of what's too precious
to forget has blured his eye
Soon the day will come when
they will stand up like a storm
The pain will be too mush to bear,
their hearts, they must be torn
Whoo - Streetwolf's got you
The clouds have prepared for rain and storm
The chill of the wind has frozen all the pain
I know in my room it's dry and warm
but i cann't stand to scan the walls in vain
White and Wonderful the show covers my hair
I reached out but you're not there
In the days of December
I'm lonly ever since you're gone
In the night I remember
Your frozen hands that kept me warm
In the days of December
I've never seen sense in future plans
I know that the time will make it up somehow
But god how i miss you, there's no words
to tell you how it looks inside myself now
Cold and Beautiful
your vision in the ice
I reache out but you're not there
In the days of December
I'm lonly ever since you're gone
In the night I remember
Your frozen hands that kept me warm
This was the result of drink-and-play session
with Chris' brother Spiros. It was funny listening
to the tape - you couldn't recognize the original
shit from the finished song.
A dangerous heritage they've left behind
for us, so we meet our death before time
for our children, they can take the rest
but there's not much
that we've saved in the past.
Take these conditions, the memories fade
choose a position between love and hate.
Alternate lifestyle - a wish to escape
travel this planet before it's too late.
Where do we go? Who want's to know?
Dangerous heritage - failures strike back
on your deathbed feel the grip ‘round your neck
Dangerous heritage - you can't disclaim
curse it whenever it hammers your brain
A dangerous heritage they've left behind
for us so we'll find no peace for all time
talking and talking but then speaks the gun
until the most senseless battle is won.
When people' nation counts more
than their lives
then something's wrong
in their heads for all time
We transfer our views from father to son
ain't it our choice to wipe out what is wrong?
Where are we now? Who want's to know?
Dangerous heritage - failures strike back
on your deathbed feel the grip ‘round your neck
Dangerous heritage - you can't disclaim
Sweet childlike lady
You stir me up
The time is coming
To warm up your ass
I've got the number
And when it's night
I'll come to screw ya
I'll tear you right
Now we're together
Delightful feast
You are a virgin
I am a beast
Chorus:
Chaste flesh - I'm gonna change it
Chaste flesh - I can arrange it
Chaste flesh - lay down or die
Chaste flesh now obey
She's coming nearer
Oh, if she knew
She's so wanton
Genuine and new
My body's hungry
Sweating in heat
I'm gonna give her
My rod of meat
Chorus
Biting, scratching - baby you unchain my lust
Howling, growling - when will you unchain my lust
What can I do when the sadness comes through?
I'd better stay asleep inside my bed
When every word could be causing a hurt
I'd better keep the silence than to speak
Won't someone help me cause I just can't make my mind up to escape
Morning, another day
Still I'm fighting for a wink of sleep
The clock rings and I must begin
But I feel so broken, I could weep
And I find it hard to stay awake
Just to make a step costs all my will
I get no power from a shower, I
wont' make it in an hour
And my body's aching, am I ill?
Oh, just let me out
I've tried so hard, I can't get out
I just can't get out, my state of
mind won't let me out
Daytime I'm coming round
And the first thing that I hear is bad
Then I start to worry everyone around me
And I'm angry and I'm feeling sad
I'm screaming I am fighting with
the people that get in my way
I'm running and I'm pushing and
I'm crying and I'm crushing
My depression made again my day
Oh, just let me out
I've tried so hard, I can't get out
I just can't get out, my state of
mind won't let me out
Can't get out
Awakening this morning
Trying to get the sleep outta my eyes
This is a fun-version with new words of an very old song from
Avenger, the band that became Rage in late '85. It was written
in the summer of '83 and appeared on the Avenger album
"Prayers Of Steel" (no more available), that came out in May
'85. The original title was "Battlefield". We always wanted to do
a remake of it because this song is too good to be forgotten.
Here is it, last but not least for our fans who followed us
from the beginning
We are going to attack
Another barrel's cracked tonight
On the banner beer and booze
We rape the bottles on the loose (oh yeah)
Bottlefield
Fun and coma side by side
Bottlefield
Could you say who's at your side?
All they filled up was in vain
Pools remember former times
Smoke and laughter all around
Drunken bodies on the ground
Bottlefield
Fun and coma side by side
Bottlefield
Could you say who's at your side?
There is still a rest of men
Only crap is on their minds
But if they try to get up
The alcohol will tear them down
Bottlefield
Fun and coma side by side
Bottlefield
Music by P. Wagner, C. Efthimiadis, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
I've seen it coming, it's got to be.
No illusions at the turning of the century.
All our wishes - forever free -
all destroyed because somehow we lost the masterkey.
Leaving my dreams far behind,
got no ambitions in time if only I'm so
Black in mind, When there's no point in making it.
Black in mind. When there's no hope for love, I'm so
Black in mind. When these madmen are wasting it.
Black in mind. I don't want to be sacrificed for
a territorial war. Leave me alone, I'm so black in mind.
You made me want it, too blind to see
that all it gave me were illusions of reality.
My eyes got used to the things they've seen,
See these people like me, living in this dirty place
Feel this depression in these streets that lame the brain
It kills the will that drives me on
'Cause where'a no hope all power's gone
Why Am I here? A senseless birth
I'm not afraid to leave this earth
Heal these hollow eyes that keep on starting at these walls
Fill the empty space that's in these heads where chaos crawls
'Cause from the mud there comes disease
A new born hate disturbs the peace
A fatal end to all my grief
I've lost my pride, my self belief
I get my food from an unknown hand
I did nothing for it, understand
Still I'm waiting for a reason that could make a difference
But this is just another wasted day
Give me something to rely on, I don't know where I'am going
This is just another wasted day
Hear the voiceless calling in a world of noisy gear
Find the answer for a human child why it is here
'Cause from the mud there comes disease
A new born hate disturbs the peace
A fatal end to all my grief
I've lost my pride, my self belief
Not only out of work, we're out of all
In the depths of our mind
There hides a lust that's really dangerous and blind
Waiting for the outburst, for an instigation, I bet
You won't be ashamed
To kill if you're not blamed, no
It won't need much to free
The element of crime!
Our world is full of hidden crime
What they call god is nothing but an empty shell
And in this name they think it's right to slaughter,
A higher order
You won't be ashamed
To kill if you're not blamed, no
It won't need much to free
The element of crime!
Animal instinct
All day we hear it in the news
In every state and country the defenceless are abused
What could we even learn from history, it's just
A dated list of crimes
Animal Instinct
Animal Instinct
Music by P. Wagner, C. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
As I walk the streets I feel no pain,
there is no love or hate, can't see no certain state I'm in.
And a fog has laid itself on my heart
like this misty morning as this cloudy day begins.
Still I wonder should I be afraid
about what's happening and how long has it been -don't know.
Why did come this shadow in my head
like I have lost my soul, like I'm alive but dead.
As I walk the streets I feel no fear,
although I notice that there is no feeling anymore.
And I try to send my mind back to the times
when I was able to live something to the core.
Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead,
I'm just a slave to what they've said. (this decay)
Still I'm alive but I feel dead.
Dark, dark as the grave, my heart is dead,
I'm just a slave to when you call, (my disease)
Still I'm alive but I must be dead.
Alive but dead
can't fill my head
Darkness, there's darkness everywhere.
You gotta help me out of here,
All is grey, grey today,
Today I don't want to stay.
What I say, what you say
Is not getting through to me.
It vanished in haze,
I'm falling from the grace,
This is another of those days.
All vanished in haze, vanished in haze.
Bitter face, empty eyes.
There has been so many smiles.
But my lips - paralysed,
Poisoned heart and poisoned mind.
It vanished in haze...
Give me time, let me go,
There's so much I couldn't show.
Leave my will to the flow,
More to be as I will grow.
It vanished in haze...
It's allright, it is good,
There's a lot I've understood.
We will get what we need,
[Music: Victor Smolski]
[Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
Hijackers, kidnapers, have a look around
Assassins with blessings from their gods
No mercy, they try to set this world on fire
They think that they have a right to kill
Take good care to be out of here
From the nuclear fire
Separation and growing fear
We forgot we're one, never spoke in one voice
Now we're here
It's the war of worlds
And we're all concerned, right now
Everyone has to learn
It's the war of worlds
And our future burns right now
(It's the war of worlds)
This is the war of the worlds right now
They swallow and follow just the path of greed
Blood dripping, heart ripping, take it all
Confusion, conclusions not in sight, so scary
Not willing to share what all is there
Take good care to be out of here
From the nuclear fire
Separation and growing fear
We forgot we're one, never spoke in one voice
Now we're here
It's the war of worlds
And we're all concerned, right now
Everyone has to learn
It's the war of worlds
And our future burns right now
(It's the war of worlds)
Burn in hell

Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
I thought about it and my dream was broken
I clutch at images like dying breath
And I don't want to make a fuss about it
The only certain thing in life is death
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Where you want to be, won't you ever see?
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Ah....now!

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean mean pride.
Though his mind is not for rent,
Don't put him down as arrogant.
His reserve, a quiet defense,
Riding out the day's events.
The river
And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society.
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift.
The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his eyes are wide.
Today's Tom Sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the space he invades
He gets by on you.
No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government.
Always hopeful, yet discontent,
He knows changes aren't permanent,
But change is.
And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society.
Catch the witness, catch the wit,
Catch the spirit, catch the spit.
The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his skies are wide.
Exit the warrior,
Today's Tom Sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the energy you trade,
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
He is alone though he's one of the crowd
Days made of dust and nights filled with doubts
Somewhere's a light he can't see and he knows
Not forever, no eternity
Not forever, one day he'll be free
He's got the time to think and he found
It's all the same with the people around
They need someone to bear all their sins
Not forever, no eternity
Not forever, and the world will see
Locked in a cell, that is his life
Only one thing in mind
Making a change
Not willing to wait ‘til it's time to die
One thing before his eyes
Making a change
What will the world look like without him?
Who'll do the dirty jobs if not him?
What are the leaders without someone to lead?
Not forever, no eternity
Not forever, one day he'll be free
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
Plans I have made to build it up from this state.
Always moving, never stop, though the answers are made
‘bout the future, ‘bout the past,
where I come from, what will last.
Try to delay things that lead you astray.
But society sucks you out, leads to early decay.
If I will, if I won't, a decision that I could not flee.
I prayed it leave me be - the icecold hand of destiny.
Everything's right, it seems the future looks bright.
But there's always factor X that leads the tumbling dice.
If I will...
Play for future, play for past,
[Music: Victor Smolski]
[Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
"I have heared your voice
Now I have no choice
You must face your fatal end"
What is this? I can't believe my eyes
Is it trying to hunt, it's bringing me down, bringing me down
Why did I come to this hellish vault
I have heared, they warned
It's chasing, raging, killing you
Time stands still
And myself will
Disappear tonight from this world
Soundchaser
Now the beast has come
It's coming out to eat me alive
The Soundchaser
Is soundchasing, raging, killing you
"Eons back in time
This world has been mine
Deadly plage from heaven sent"
Hush, my dear, the silence saved my life
It won't find us if we hide on the ground, without a sound
Hell freeze over! Please, please save my life
Instinctive breed, it is chasing, raging, killing you
Time stands still
And myself will
Disappear tonight from this world
Soundchaser
Now the beast has come
It's coming out to eat me alive
The Soundchaser
Is soundchasing, raging, killing you
Soundchaser, Soundchaser, now the beast has come alive...
Since a while I thought 'bout leaving here
I can see no way to get it clear
Under you I feel misunderstood
In this respectable neighbourhood
Hey, don't look for me no more
'Cause I won't be coming home
Well, I'm a solitary man
I'm gonna leave you now alone
I'm just a solitary man
I feel so strange here, do you know?
I have heard they're tellin' tales 'bout me
Find me weird and most unusually
Can't you see that I'm just doing my way?
Live it out what you all just pretend
I don't need no company
If I did I'd look for better
Well, I'm a solitary man
I'm gonna leave you now alone
I'm just a solitary man
I feel so strange here, do you know?
Well, I'm a solitary man
I'm gonna leave you now alone.
How many men have been killed ‘cause of religion?
For example Iran and Irak, this war is going on
For more than a decade.
It is more than ridiculous how these brothers
Kill themselves for the geed of might
That their leaders covered real clever
With the name of a god
Religious This is sinister thinking
Fanatics Ruled by sinister thinking
They drill this evil spirit in their children's heads
So there's no ending in sight, no
Religious This is sinister thinking
Fanatics Ruled by sinister thinking
Madmen, madmen
Killing their lands
In east and west There is sinister thinking
Religious This is sinister thinking
They run the endless debate
Who's right and who is wrong
In their eyes we've all failed in life
Old men in silk and diamonds
Decide who's right to kill
A soldier with god; not so his wife
It's just another way to multiply their power
They need a reason to survive
Seven deadly sins
Just give them fear of hell, obey the ivory tower
If they all want to stay alive
Seven deadly sins - seven deadly sins
Who are they to speak justice
About another man
They've tortured and killed through history
How can you dogmatise it
You cannot shape the truth
There's no way to order belief
It's just another game to multiply their power
They need a reason to survive
Seven deadly sins
If we all fear their hell, obey their ivory tower
They have a chance to stay alive
C'mon now, c'mon now
Let's get closer, I'll show you how
Let's get into my car
Noone can see us and we got it warm
Get it out, get it out
No need to worry, everything's allowed
Ain't this good, yes, it's good
I know there's power in your underwood
Wohow, nobody knows
Get on up, get on down
Let's change it over, babe, c'mon sit down
Uh, I like it this way
One foot in the steering wheel that's OK
Wohow, nobody knows
[Instrumental]

Leave here; turn back;
More beer; one track;
Hot sun -caribbean; blue sea - palm tree beach;
Hotel - behind the dunes; leisure time - animator;
Round trip, hip-grip, bullshit, fit - hit
Groovin' away in the heat of the car
Round trip, hip-grip, tourist's madness
Sweating away in a first class hovel
Guest loo; french food;
Sightseeing - tourist guide; bus tour - standard price
Round trip, hip-grip, bullshit, fit - hit
Groovin' away in the heat of the car
Round trip, hip-grip, tourist's madness
Sweating away in a first class hovel
Good skiing! Mountaineer;
Alpine - snow bunny; divine - modest dirndl;
Round trip, hip-grip, bullshit, fit - hit
Groovin' away in the heat of the car
Round trip, hip-grip, tourist's madness
Sweating away in a first class hovel
Round trip, hip-grip, bullshit, fit-hit,
Now I know it's time again to change my life
Yes it's time for me to leave it all behind
Say goodbye to all I'd have if I'd stay here
No, I don't need it anymore
The wind is whispering in the trees, they call my name
The birds that leave me down here, they all do the same
Don't you think that I don't care
There'll be a time
When I am old enough to stay
There's this longing in my heart that must be fed
It gets its thrills outside the walls
There are still so many pictures in my head
I must follow to this call
As I leave it all behind - saddle the wind
Satisfy my longing mind - saddle the wind
As I leave it all behind - saddle the wind
Say goodbye from time to time - saddle the wind
As I see the naked earth, wide open fields
There's a vision to become a part of it
In its sparkling waves the river invites me
To join it on the journey to the sea
And always when I feel I've got a home
Then I need to get away
As I leave it all behind - saddle the wind
Satisfy my longing mind - saddle the wind
As I leave it all behind - saddle the wind
Say goodbye from time to time - saddle the wind
There's this longing in my heart...
[Music: Victor Smolski]
[Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
Get deeper underground
The lost is found
Remains are all around, take care
To catch a breath of age
Not from this world
A dinosaur of rage's construction
Take a chance, only you can
Take a chance, make it alive
You're holding in your hands
A construction plan
So do now what you can, take care
To give a breath of life
A human touch
A prehistoric clone, Frankenstein
Take a chance, only you can
Take a chance, make it alive
Secrets in a weird world
Under the arctic shelf
Life, lost in the ice
Back in the new world
Secrets in a weird world
Timeless and undistorted
Life, lost in the ice
Back in the new world
The title track of my first album that I recorded
with Avenger in '84. I've changed some words
for this version. You find all former members
playing here. The drum take is done by Jorg, the
lead breaks by Alf, Jochen, Manni, Guinness and
Rudy.
Lay me on an anvil, oh lord
and forge me in a crowbar
let me pry young virgin souls
give ‘em strength somehow
Lay me on an anvil, oh lord
and forge me in a spike
drive me in the wasted hearts
to straighten out their lifes
Let me be your weapon, oh lord
fight for truth real hard
let me roar with all your force
fight for you and guard
Let me be your clearest spirit
hold your temple high
from the darkest souls, so deep
to the blackest night
All your wisdom give me, oh lord
teach me prayers of steel
Give me strength and give me power
This is mine, here's where my home is
I don't want to let you break into my world
All my life I've been looking for something
that's my own, I'm so glad I found it now
Don't you step on this ground
I don't want to lose an inch of my freedom
I'll lose my soul if you steal my refuge
Leave my cloud and stay away
this is my refuge
play your dirty tricks, my friend
but leave my refuge
I grow stronger and you feel smaller
guess that's your reason for taking up my time
with every secret that you make public
your influence on my life grows, ain't this true?
Don't step on this ground
I don't want to lose an inch of my freedom
I'll lose my soul if you steal my refuge
Leave my cloud and stay away
this is my refuge
play your dirty tricks, my friend
but leave my refuge
In search for personality
We people always think the clothing makes a man
In fact there's such ha difference in all
What we think and how we understand
My left is your right
Your day is my night
Their darkness is our light
Reflections of a shadow
Reflections of my mind
We're looking for externals
And the eye gets blind in insincerity
But when I hear you talking
Then your soul lies free for everyone to see
And what I do
Becomes my proof
Our acts draw our portraits
And in the night
We make it right
In dreams we find our light
Reflections of a shadow
Reflections of my mind
Reflections of a shadow
Hellchild, you got
No fun, you're wild
That's you: dependent,
Obey, you do
No way to go
So come on
Oh yeah, you need a
Brainstorm today
Shout out your pain
be strong, be loud
No way to go
Chorus:
Bang - it's raw energy
Bang - it's raw energy
Don't fear your dreams
Work'em out, they'll come clear
Never surrender
Next time do better
Feel the comin' of the chord
Oh, it says a lot more than a thousand words

[Bonus Track]
They came along last night
I knew again there was no end in sight
We all had too much
We needed a break to let it out our guts
So we turned it on to its highest point
Shot far over the line when it's fun
We dropped out on the edge
Stumbling on the edge
Set the mind afire
Let the engine run overpowered
'N' break the bonds of sleep
Feed the overdose with all to keep
And we turned it on to its highest point
Shot far over the line when it's fun
We dropped out on the edge
Stumbling on the edge
On the edge when there's no point to go further
There's no way to turn the steerwheel 'round
What else left then to take it as a man
Accept the final rest for now
And wait for the return
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner
I've been sitting, wondering. Where am I to go?
I spend time on too many things, turn my tides too slow.
I never felt so sick, that's all I know.
but when I hit my strings too loud
Then I will let my demons out
My RAGE - there's danger in my smile.
My RAGE - no, this is not my stile.
In the suburbs of my mind lives a gang of four
joining me from time to time in my mental war.
I never felt so mean, that's all I know.
But when I hit my strings to loud
then I will let my demons out
My RAGE...
Now I will let my demons out...
In my hour of darkness they will come again;
Fear, hate, frustration, desperation.
They are all so negative, but now I'll get them down,
He's a neurotic!
"I cannot stand it anymore!
You slut! You goddamn filthy whore!"
(This is not a gentleman's style)
He's screaming with a deep-red face
(Oh, you seem a bit angry, don't ya)
This is a choleric attack, he's got it sometimes
(mmmh, my god!)
He's a neurotic, gonna break his neck
I don't wanna get like this
Don't worry ‘bout this guy
It's up to you to show him better ways
Don't get to angry if he failed again
His moods hard to control
And when he steps out of the door
The kids, they laugh at him once more
(Motherfucker, motherfucker, bababa!)
If he didn't cry or wish he was dead
(Nobody loves me!)
He would scream out in boiling RAGE
(Fuck you assholes!)
He's a neurotic, gonna break his neck
I don't wanna get like this
Don't worry ‘bout this guy
It's up to you to show him better was
Don't get too angry if he failed again
His moods hard to control
He's a neurotic, gonna break his neck
I sat here thinking, let my mind drift away
And what I saw was a vision of you.
Just like a movie that I saw yesterday
And now I know what I'm going to do.
I watched the hourglass on my empty wall,
Like hypnotized of the circles I'd seen.
The timeless ticking of the fingers who called
Myself to be where I wanted to be.
More than a lifetime away
More than a lifetime away
One million hours to stay
More than a lifetime away
I fly by night, I'm passing point after point.
So many places to stay invite me.
But they won't heal me, they won't rest me, I know.
I'm moving on 'till I'm going to be

[Music & Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
Once again I fell sleep
Drowned in a deadlike state, far too deep
There she came, in my dreams
Showed me places I never had seen
But I don't remember anything
It's just that I've seen everything
And I want to have it one more time, what can I do
Hear me now! S.O.S., I'm calling you
Take me out to a mystery trip
Hear me now! S.O.S., I'm calling you
Once again on a mystery trip
Felt so low, felt so down
Searched for eyes I never had found
Still I need more of this
Though she wasn't alive when we kissed
And I want to meet her once again
To get another chance and then
I will hopefully remember when I'm leaving here...
[Bonus track]
Hey you, take a look at me now
Have you ever seen the face of death
Have you noticed me somehow
Not more than rotton flesh and bones...
But there's more than molecules
That make you different from a stone
Mirror, mirror, mirror
Friendly smiles decay
Mirror, mirror, mirror
It's your final day
Hey you, your spirit is more
It turns you into a scientist, an inventor to explore
But look into the mirror of life
You made so many mistakes
Now you get back what you gave
Mirror, mirror, mirror
Friendly smiles decay
Mirror, mirror, mirror
It's your final day
Your face is cold tonight
Your glance is far out of sign
You lay your body for the final rest
Do you think it was good what you've done in the past
You've had your years on earth
Now go back to what you've been...
[Instrumental]
All I want is you but so far I never knew you,
Our limitless selves, all that can remain is there.
Now give us the time to share it
'Till the sleep comes again.
Love after death, the other half, in a unit we're best.
Love after death, this is forever, I have no regrets.
Lost, out of my sight,
Alone wandering through the night.
Time tore us apart,
So different to learn by heart.
Now give us a chance to share it
As life comes again.
Love after death, the other half, in a unit we're best.
Love after death, this is forever, I have no regrets.
Love after love after love after death.
Love, all I want is you,
I am just like you, never we can die.
Love, circle in a whole,
The twin of my soul, 'till the end of time.

Watch out, they're on the loose
They creep into your privacy, lurk in all corners for you
Justice - that's what they scream
But can they find verdicts on me while they're corrupt like...
Shit, I don't know who or what
They say that they're friends and they fight for your rights
They say that they're helpers
But they only teach you to stand real tight
Out there in the streets: Law and order
In out battlefields: Law and order
No way, you can't escape
You can't make mistakes or have fun or just do what you feel
They'll keep you locked in, you might be a troublemaker
Keep him safe
You bastard, you'd better be dead or something like this...
Now he's safe

Innocent guilty, she did not reply when he called
He didn't know she was innocent guilty
But it'd come to that
Twenty times that day
He tried to call her on the phone
But he did not succeed
And noone answered the door but then he heard her dog
So she must have been at home and he called her name
But it was in vain
Innocent guilty, she did not reply when he called
He didn't knew she was innocent guilty
But it'd come to that
He found the back door open
So he stole into the house
Where he found the body of her father
In the kitchen, blood was all around
On the table a letter that she wrote
Please forgive me
I have killed this man
'Cause he raped me
I can't stand the pain, the shame, my love, this last goodbye...
And he ran up the stairs to her room where she had opened her veins...
Innocent guilty, she did not reply when he called
He didn't knew she was innocent guilty
But as it seemed she was dead
No excuses, nothing can be done
This time it's coming to an end
And the truth is that I'm on the run
Loneliness is my only friend
Out there I see them staring at me, leaving me to die
Out there I feel they're scared about me, wanting me to die
Time is turning, it has passed me by
Unwanted, now the truth has died
The stake is burning, heaven is denied
The world prefers to blind their eyes
Out there I see them staring at me, leaving me to die
Out there I feel they're scared about me
I'm crucified, I'm crucified
And before the day is done, I'm crucified
Sacrificed to everyone, I'm crucified
I am every mother's son
I'm crucified, I'm crucified
Pointed fingers, gossip in the back
They shoot the bullet from behind
Cut the wings of those who try to fly
The devil's walking hand in hand
I'm crucified, I'm crucified
And before the day is done, I'm crucified
Sacrificed to everyone, I'm crucified
I am every mother's son
I've seen you with your mummy yesterday
you waved for me but then you couldn't stay.
Since then I've got this picture in my mind
it shows you in panties from behind.
I want to your mummy from your side
I want you, you're just the kind for me
I want you, you bring me up indeed
Don't leave me here alone, come over now.
I know you're kinda young but well grown out.
So what about a little here and now?
Yeah right, so what? Not yet, you know!
If mummy could see you now at my side...
I want you, you're just the kind for me
In the darkest hour
It is time for the truth
When you're fast asleep
In the darkest hour
A modern man, a nice gentle guy
He cuts a real smart figure from his head
To his toes
But when the night falls and the mask
Comes off him then,
He changes to a raping, pervert monster man
Like Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde
"I'm gonna get you tonight!"
In the darkest hour
It is time for the truth
When you're fast asleep
In the darkest hour
The upright housewife, busy with her meals -
Things like chatting with the milkman
Are her only thrills
But when the night falls and she puts
Her stocking on,
Yeah, then she gets in heavy
With the neighbour's so
Like she's a domina tonight
"I'm gonna shoot off your balls!"
Some people hide what they are
In the darkest hour
It is time for the truth
When you're fast asleep

This is the time, this is the place for me
They brought me back to life again
It was for seen a long, long time ago
I'm coming back, I shall return
Everything I've seen
All the places I have been
And the secrets of the earth
Have been given at my birth
I withstand all that's worse
I'm human metal, yes, I am real, I'm human metal
I'm human metal and I am made to give you back what you have lost
I'm human metal, yes, I am real, I'm human metal
I'm human metal
And I am made to give you back what you have lost so long ago
Organic life is pumping through my veins
A hard drive's working in my head
My ears are trained to catch the tiniest sound
I'm powered by the notes I get
Made of blood and steel
A machine but I can feel
Activated by the sound
Of the music that's around
A raging metal pound
I'm human metal, yes, I am real, I'm human metal
I'm human metal and I am made to give you back what you have lost
I'm human metal, yes, I am real, I'm human metal
I'm human metal
And I am made to give you back what you have lost so long ago
Made to save your life and make you grow
A majestic symphony is life, so give up misery
Now raise your head and listen what's to come...
[Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner.]
So, now my time has come.
I will be dead and gone
from the earth's face.
It is my destiny,
this time I cannot hide
from this cruel fate.
A never ending memory,
a life before my eyes.
Whatever comes, whatever's been,
my pocket full of lies.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
higher than the sky.
An ordinary flight,
who could imagine this
will be our death cell.
No miracle in sight,
We're diving faster now,
as for as I can tell.
I see the faces passing by,
there's fear inside their eyes.
They all will be my company
we're brothers now for life.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
higher than the sky.

I wanna go, long time ago
It was the time when all the ladies used to show
They saved a dance for their heart's gentleman
They're waiting for the time and saved the day
For the french bourree
Give me a sign, a single sign
So I'll be waiting here until you will be mine
I wanna know, you let the other go
Then come along and dance with me today
To the french bourree
And if you let me in your heart
I will find a start
Take a chance on me, wait and you will see
You and me, it's gotta be
Let me win your heart with a bourree
I wanna go, long time ago
It was the time when all the ladies used to show
They saved a dance for their heart's gentleman
They're waiting for the time and saved the day
For the french bourree
And if you let me in your heart
I will find a start
Take a chance on me, wait and you will see
You and me, it's gotta be
Let me win your heart with a bourree

The wall inside, he built to defend himself.
He needs to hide, to keep independency.
The race is on, it can't be won.
A fortress in you head
one step among the dead.
Security for fear,
a fortress, caging in
for what you're here.
The pain inside, disappoinments everyday.
To keep his pride he can't find a better way (than)
to lock his mind, though he'll lose life.
A fortress in you head
one step among the dead.
Security for fear,
a fortress, caging in
for what you're here.
A fortress in you head
one step among the dead.
Security for fear,
a fortress in you head, oh.
A fortress caging in,
unreal behind your grin.
Security is lie,

Hey don't walk on by
You, don't stomp on my face
Once I was like you
I didn't care for nothing else
Had no sense for more than money and fame
Power and greed and the so called honour
Now I am gone and my body lies cold
Not much is left, so I pray
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
Listen now!
Time - I never had
Rushed through a restless day
You seem to be blind, too
When luck comes your way
You had no patience with people who cared
Until you lost them and when you grow old
You'll be a lonely rich man without hope
There's more to be than we see
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
Listen now!
What's this look inside my eyes,
This haunted creature, me.
What's this thing there in my back,
So strong but not to see.
Why is it that we're drowning in pain?
There's nothing evil here to stay
But fear in ourselves.
There's not a chance to find our way
With fear in ourselves.
We're possessed to take control,
To rule our world of sin.
Lower you to lift me up.
I cannot trust within.
Why is it that we're drowning in hate?
There's nothing evil here to stay
But fear in ourselves.
There's not a chance to find our way
With fear in ourselves.
With fear in ourselves...
There's nothing evil in this world

[Lyrics: Peavy Wagner]
You turned away from me to be with someone else
You turned away but from inside you are here
Still you didn't give me what I need the most
I am half, it feels not right and I fear
Coming back, you started building up myself
Face to face, man and machine come alive
But mortality will be the price to pay
It's a circle with an end to arrive
Can't you see that I'm dead from inside
Won't you help me be alive
You, give me flesh and blood
I wanna know the feeling in my veins
You, give me flesh and blood
I wanna know the feel of flesh and blood
Can't you see I'm burning from inside
I just need to be alive
You, give me flesh and blood
I wanna know the feeling in my veins
You, give me flesh and blood
I wanna know the feel of flesh and blood
You turned away from me to be with someone else
You turned away but from inside you are here
Now you gave me what I need to be alive
On my mission in the night you are here
You are here

We send satellites to space
And we own the biggest missiles
We give millions of support for technology
But still we can't even live in peace with our neighbour
Most of us are insane of neuroses
Enough is enough - You can control
Enough is enough - Those who don't know
Faster - This world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - When moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
All this misery in our minds will break free, you will see...
Social psychology - Seek the key for our salvation
This science needs more support, it could help that
The understanding of the single person can grow
But who pays
'Cause if we stay weak we are much better to use
Enough is enough - Head over heart
Enough is enough - Right from the start
Faster - This world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - When moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
All this misery in our minds will break free, you will see...
Science is only as good or as bad
As the people who use it
And if we want to have a tomorrow
We should take ten percent of the money from our armies
And develop the minds of our nations
Enough is enough - You can control
Enough is enough - Those who don't know
Faster - This world is heading straight into a big disaster
Tell me, when will it reach its end?
Bigger - When moneymakers stamp our souls with technology
Believe me, this got to reach an end
Faster - A victory 'bout fear, this is the greatest glory
Believe me, the first step has been made
Bigger - The real progress - Another quality in our way of life
From quantity to quality
Away from misery in our minds, make them free, it's got to be...
Help me, I must reach the border
I run from the keepers of order
They have locked me just for nothing
Help me, I'm down by law
Help me, I'm down by law
Watch out, they're at your door
Help me, I'm down by law
There's no chance to defend
When power is in wrong hand
Me, I come out for the dirt, I got nothing
No, the cops, they were looking for a fight
And I'm a victim of denunciation
(Repeat 2nd verse)
My fortune is a plight
Where's law there's no right
"Kill this bastard hunt him to death!"
"Oh, have mercy!" "No, you won't be free!"
Now I'm a criminal subject
Why? My life a mess, no turning back
Just because arbitrariness rules this land
Dies irae venit
Dies irae venit
Poena dei venit
Amen, amen
Poena dei venit
Time is late, heading into our fate
Nothing to change in the moment before our awakening
Hypnotised, nearly like paralysed
Just like the rabbit that stares in the eyes of the snake
No more tears will help the dying
No more sighing, nothing to wonder
Pride and anger wiped away
Kneel down, the end is near
Dies irae venit
Dies irae venit
Poena dei venit
Amen, amen
Poena dei venit
Darkened skies covering greed and lies
Restless the damned try to save their possessions with bleeding eyes
All in vain ´cause nothing will remain
Like we were told we'll end by extinction, you'll see
All the empires start to crumble
All will tumble, drown in the oceans
Pride and anger wiped away
Kneel down, the end is near
Dies irae venit
Dies irae venit
Poena dei venit
Amen, amen
Oh, can't you tell me what makes me fell this way?
It's overwhelming, obscuring all my days.
Give me a reason to carry on for more.
The change of season, it undermines my core.
A constant darkness coating me,
I cannot see you, no more...
Excuse me for the things I've said,
if I could change it I'd be glad,
it is just, it drives me to desperation,
to desperation.
There's no solution, I'm heading for the end.
The consecution is lying in my hand.
A constant streaming, opening me.
I cannot feel you, no more...
Forgive me all the things I've made
for peace of mind, now it's too late,
it is just, it drives me to desperation.
Excuse me for the things I've said,
if I could change it I'll be glad,
it is just, it drives me to desperation,
Hey, are you someone who can't help his pain?
Do you feel sad, feel like all was in vain?
Are you controlled by a depressive mind?
Are you the slave of your thoughts, all the time?
Come, let me show you
How they control you
See the difference!
You'll notice the difference
You'll soon make a difference
It's time to learn that it's all in your hand
You're not a victim, you must understand
Better erase what's not worth to be thought
Throw all this ballast you've kept overboard
Come, let me show you
How it controls you
Tell the difference!
You'll notice the difference
No! You interfere with my free will
I won't give my mind for you to fill
All those words are lies, don't need no
Deceiver
Hate is what you sow between all men
Kill - you made them acquiesce to death
You earn well when other men die
Deceiver
Fool, stay blind, get in line
Count me out, I've no doubts
A man in herd, with a lack of conscience
This won't be my way, can't see where's the sense
Darkness spreading thicker day by day
They're afraid of having lost their way

Senseless you wasted her life

My pain you can't comprehend

I'll wait for my chance
I will hunt you 'till death
Strike you down on the chase
If it takes my last breath
I'll strike you down on the chase
Strike you downNo break 'till I've switched you off
I'll give you what you gave my love
My mind it needs to be cleansed
I'll get you - you know what that means
No! You've turned off the light of my life

Wake the morning, time to go
I think I have to leave
In my shady, grey and dusty dress
I'll never make my way
In my darkened hemisphere
The sun refuses to shine
In this chain of doubts and rainy clouds
Where nothing wants to stay
It's a shame, all in vain
It's a game to pretend
In the end it's gonna be okay
The mystery when darkness turns to light
The great release when wrong will turn to right
I want to see when darkness turns to light
When the waking winds will reach my mind
And blow the night away...
Try to keep my head up high
Appear like I'm unscarred
But the mirror tells the bitter truth
You've hit me unprepared
Is it gonna stay like this
Is this my only range
Don't you keep me down, I want to live
I wanna see a change
It's a shame, all in vain
It's a game to pretend
In the end it's gonna be okay
Oh, I give a fuck
To what you say ‘bout what I'm doing -
Believe it or not
Oh, you can't comprehend
What I have made but try to find out
What I've meant
Tribunal, tribunal
Oh, not me
Mighty fools make the rules
Don't try to get rid of me
Robbery, robbery
Is mentality
Machinery, machinery
Building lies, but read the truth
Between the lines
Don't you let them fool ya, see the signs of time
Between the lines
Nothing' like it seems, so read between the lines
Now the time is right
You steal the authorities' might to rule our minds
Between the lines
Don't you let them fool ya, see the signs of time
Between the lines
Nothing' like it seems, so read between the lines

You keep running 'round
And sell the people little dreams
Why don't you shut up now
You drive me mad
Brainsucker
You've stolen all your money
And you've stolen all our minds
Watch out, soon you'll get the hammer back
Ain't no place around for "bullshit man dirt" like you are
Come on man, I'll bang your head instead

Again they buried an old miner
The poisoned stocks of stone in sight
The wind was sick from dust
They all knew that it would settle overnight
And they all went to work into the mines the next day
Like they'd done more than forty years now
They had destroyed their land for the atomic curse
'Cause they hoped it would help them somehow
Those who worked for a better life
Don't know to survive
It is another
Another kind of madness
Uranium wast is everywhere now
Radioactive gas escapes
Contaminated land and water denied responsibility
When they're leaving you nothing than a big load of death
And you know that a cancer's your end
What the industry's after
They don't ask where it's from
Don't you think that it's a crying shame?
Those who worked for a better life
Don't know how to survive
It is another
Another kind of madness
This journey started long ago
When will it end?
I don't know
My ship's been stranded many times
I've missed some chances,
Yes, I know
My tale is not ‘bout a hero
Anyway, but the stone and the flute are
With me
A pilgrim's path
I was a boy when Arnie died.
He put it all in my hands
This was the time I had to leave
On this path with no release
Though I've been seeking for a lifetime
I don't know exactly what I'm searching for
A pilgrim's path
I have begun to settle down -
Still there's a hole in my life.
This cannot be the reason why I was born
Restless heart
Maybe that I'm not alone here,
What will I find if I leave to seek new shores?
A pilgrim's path
Give me one more chance
Please don't leave me here

This world's so materialistic,
our life just makes sense when we buy.
You're just a part of the statistics
when there's a red line on your bank account, you cash runs out.
Half the population blinds their eyes.
They pretend a credit gives them wealthiness, consume contest
Just like a spider's web
Just like a spider's web
you try to get out but it holds you tighter
Just like a spider's web
Just like a spider's web
you try to get out but it holds you tight like
all of this borrowed existences,
how can they sleep in the night.
They are afraid when the bell rings.
They're working half their lifes to bay it back, ‘til heart attack
Half the population blinds their eyes.
They believe a credit gives them wealthiness, consume contest
Just like a spider's web...
Just alone, they're gone away
Six feet under ground
This was only yesterday
Six feet under ground
I've had my time, I've had my place
I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
What is it that I have not found
Six feet under ground
Let me go, let me see clear
Let me look around
Something's waiting but not here
Six feet under ground
I've had my time, I've had my place
I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
What is it that I have not found
Six feet under ground
How long will it take to understand
How long will it take to comprehend
To find my universe I have to let it go
So long, so long...
I've had my time, I've had my place
I've gone too far, stuck in disgrace
What is it that I have not found
Six feet under ground
Way back in time from ancient ways
Discover what was lost in haze
This is what I still have not found
Six feet under ground
I'm six feet...

A simple man from a no - wonderland
where you bury your dreams at birth.
He took a heart, cause he couldn't believe
that there's no better place on earth
Eastern man meets western land
holding his life in his hands
it is all over for those, who got nothing to lose
All of his life he had struggled for free
starving the rest of the time
without a dime and with no human rights
in a society built up on crime
and now eastern man meets western land
holding his life in his hands
what can the world do with
those, who got nothing to lose
Here he is, but what now?
Left outside, unwanted
Woman, I know it's not easy to say
But I miss you the longer I'm so far away
You know me, it's not easy to find the words
Woman, I miss you each day in the desert
Woman, tomorrow I might bite the dust
Believe me, I don't want to stay but I must
God help me, I'm so afraid, don't let me down
Oh, woman, I love you, I love you, I love you,
How I long for you, woman
We belong to each other...
Woman, I'm so afraid, don't let me down
Oh, woman, I love you, I love you, I love you,
In the gunfire's roaring sound
When I'm falling to the ground
I can see your face so real
Oh, how I long for you, woman
We belong to each other...
I wish it would be like before
In the days of the cold war
We could play around in peace
Oh how I long for you woman
He grew up in a normal home
Real Typical, we'd say
One sister and two brothers
They were comrades for the play
The video was his best friend,
He watched it day and night
But death and war was alright
Wild seed, wild seed from the start
Wild seed, wild seed, injured heart
He'd seen his daddy drinking
And he learned to asked no whys
When Mom was lying on the floor
With tears in her eyes
He went out with his brothers
And they laughed about the hurt
They felt so good and strong
When someone was aching in the dirt
Wild seed, wild seed from the start
Wild seed, wild seed, injured heart
Oh, that's really wild
Really wild insane
Deep into social hell
He always thought that women
Are the servants of men's greed
And really was, astonished
When she called for the police
So he lived in a normal jail
Real typical, we'd say
And yesterday they killed him
When he tried to break away
Wild seed, wild seed from the start
Wild seed, wild seed, injured heart
Really wild
Really wild insane
I've been searching everywhere
Looking for the final freedom
Where there are no boundaries
When you never need a reason
Well, it has been taking me some time
'Till I've got it what I've tried to find
Now I'm the shadow of the night
The keeper of the light
The guardian of the day
I'm anywhere, nowhere
Just call me, I'll be there
Welcome to the other side
No need for a place to hide
The other side, the other side
You might find it so unreal
Nothing makes a sense in your eyes
Relativity divides
There must be a life without lies
Well, it will be taking you some time
'Till you're gonna get it what you'll find
And now you're shadow of the night
A keeper of the light
A guardian of the day
You're anywhere, nowhere
You've made it, now you're there
Welcome to the other side
No need for a place to hide
Welcome to the other side
And now you're shadow of the night
A keeper of the light
A guardian of the day
You're anywhere, nowhere
You've made it, now you're there
Welcome to the other side
No need for a place to hide
Welcome to the other side
No need for a place to hide
The other side, the other side
Though it's nothing new: we still rob our planet
It's the daily truth, we interfere with everything
Annihilation of our life's space - it is such a
Wasteland
Nothing can exist without being disturbed
Civilization kills!
Wasteland
Sooner or later we'll transform a system
That's already been perfect
It's always been the same, we take
Ourselves too serious
We're not the best of all, we are just a part of it
Is there any race as destructive as we are?
Wasteland
Children are dying for what they do not see
Ideology kills!
Wasteland
Knowledge is something for people with reason,
With responsibility
Wasteland The more we even learn

Like a kiss of evil it took hold on me.
Creeping paranoia, it will get me day by day.
Like the deadly viper with it's poisoned teeth
it is getting in my blood, a killing brain desease.
Oh, no, the thrill became a curse,
oh, the right has turned to wrong.
It's just me, myself to blame,
yes I could have seen it coming.
Now I'm a wasted man
this is 'cause I am under control.
Inside a self built cage,
screaming out the rage, under control.
Enslave my soul, I'm under control.
I can't live without it and I need it now,
what is I know about it will destroy me anyhow.
I have lost my free will, it's enslaving me.
Face inside me mirror let me out and set me free.
Oh, no, the thrill became a curse,
oh, the right has turned to wrong.
It's just me, myself to blame,
yes I could have seen it coming.
Now I'm a wasted man
this is 'cause I am under control.
Inside a self built cage,
screaming out the rage, under control.
Enslave my soul, I'm under control.
When my time to die has come,
Where will be the time and the place
To return from eternal space
Like a shadow out of time
Everything that lives on earth
Has got a mind to start once again
When a life has passed
Beginning and end, they go hand in hand
And when I'm gone, what will become of me,
an animal or a man?
Where'll be the time and the place
In this endless cycle
Noone gets lost
Tiny like dusts we're whirled away
In oceans of the universe
Where'll be the time and the place,
Time and place
No one could have known that you would end in
this way
You gotta face it, it's the end
This world knows no right, they wouldn't see what
is truth
They won't believe you're not to blame
No one can say - what's coming your way
And there ain't no way out
They're all looking down
No one makes no sound
Why must it end all in this way, why, why, why?
The torture's been surmounted now
you told them all they wanted
The pain you've overcome somehow
but what'll come from now on?
Dyin' and rotting will be your destiny
Sooner than nature planned
Where are those who loved you they all turned away
And no one will shed a tear
Chorus:
Raise up your eyes
The scaffold awaits
Truth tells no lies
The scaffold awaits
You're left alone in agony
The death blow awaits you
The public is your enemy
For crime someone must pay
Lying is right - it's an antinomy
But no one gives a shit
What is it, this mankind, a crowd of betrayers
Fearing for their own lives?
Chorus
Dyin' and rotting will be your destiny
sooner than nature planned
You thought that someone loved you, but they let an
innocent die
Chorus
Good or evil - it's in their minds
But they're so careless, though you've been kind
Take care of treason, kiss on your cheek
They got perception, but they're too weak
So many voices outside the room
They're waiting for you, await your doom
Lay down your head now - you're gonna die
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner
It was the year of madness and insanity.
There was no other cure for my disease.
The overdose - I took it ‘cause I had to flee,
it was nearly a journey that had no return,
the fever burned, I was gone -delirium.
There I was striding to heaven and they were calling me from beyond and I heard: "Don't look back!"
But I did and my eyes, they can't forget that sight
‘cause all water and land was dead.
Destroyed, denied, all tears undried,
the crawling chaos comes.
The twilight died, eternal night,
the crawling chaos comes.
A giant maelstrom, absorbing what we'd left back,
the deserts of cadaverous, mortal loam
and jungles of decay and decadence, where once
had been the homelands of my people,
temples of my ancestors, they were gone, dead and gone
Then the cracks in the ground, they were breaking up
and all water was streaming in,
Hidden competition time! Try to find out which
songs are included in this. There are bits and
pieces from every album from "Reign of Fear"
I know Sally, let me tell ya, what ‘bout her
she's a medium, she can catch the vibes in the air
she's so sensitive with supernatural powers
I have seen her talkin' to the Dead in trance
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
Since I know ‘bout it there's one thing that I want
she should ask my grandpa, if he's there beyond
ask what happend with the money that he save
‘cause noone found it in his house when he had died.
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
Ask my grandpa if he's got a dime for me!
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
...Talk to Grandpa
This is something that we worked on for
"Execution guaranteed" in '86, somehow
we forgot all about it.
Shoot down the helpless - that's nothing new
but I ain't gonna be oppressed by you
Mister ruler - you bathe in blood
but you won't get mine, I swear by god.
See all this dying
hear all this crying
Submission
Why do you wonna be always right
there' no other way but to be on your side
but there ain't no way to wipe out free will
it'll keep on growing when you try to kill it
I won't surrender
return to sender
Submission
Throw me in the dungeons
you won't get me down - no you won't
call me what you want now
I will get revenge - sweet revenge
No, you won't get me
see what you've set free
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
Think back to when you were younger,
remember when life had no scars.
You were at home in your own mind,
responsive to your inner call.
I'm waiting you'll come back,
I'm waiting for your return.
Don't waste your time any longer.
Start a new story, start a new glory.
Don't waste your time any longer.
Start a new story, start a new glory in life!
You're in a state of progression,
shapeless fears break free someway.
Your life became an obsession
when the machine stole your days.
Why do you lose your time in senseless rites
that dry your will away?
There was an "Avenger" song called "Stay wild"
in '85. After a major rearrangement and with
different words it sounds like this.
All the years we joined our lives
we did never regret
our decisions and the way
that we kept our heads.
When I needed you the most,
in my hour of pain,
I awoke the rudest way
my belief was in vain.
In you, as I tell you weren't there
didn't catch my fall, oh no,
now you've killed all I had.
She killed and smiled
she killed and smiled
what a beautiful death you brought, my child.
Wrath is burning in my mind,
why can't you take it back.
No excuses, no regrets,
you just broke my back.
Oh, you turned your back, shut your mouth
didn't had a word of trust (love)
now you've killed all I had.
She killed and smiled
she killed and smiled
I'm the king of the world
All money, all power, all godlike
And everything you rely on
Hey, you think you are safe this way
But now I'm going to change the rules
You gave it all in my hands
Your days, they will be counted soon
What goes around that will come around
You will have to take what's to come
Raise your head, it is time to burn
You'll set this world on fire
All you had's gone with no return
You'll set this world on fire
You - tell me what you've learned
You took all the gifts that I gave you
And turned them into a nightmare
Hey, you've had every chance there was
You fool, you always failed too soon
You should be one step ahead
I'm fear - and I still make the rules
What goes around that will come around
You will have to take what's to come
Raise your head, it is time to burn
You'll set this world on fire
All you had's gone with no return
You'll set this world on fire
Shadows are creeping - the air's so still
While you're sleeping - they're on the loose
Eyes wide open - you lie awake
You wish it was morning - but you can't choose
Chorus:
The air is full of sound
Their time has come to move
Night scenes, they scream
Night scenes...
The walls are cracking - you cannot move
Something rotten - lies next to you
Will this nightmare never end?
This is torture - man can't prevent
You are exposed for hours
To supernatural powers
Your body won't be injured
But in your mind you'll get scared
Chorus
Has our fate been written in our sleep
Can we see the way we got to keep
Shadows are creeping - the air's so still
While you're sleeping - they're on the loose
The night is full of wonders
If you just like it gruesome
You hear but you can't see
A thrilling scenery
There are secret tests
Labs in east and west
Working for their states
On a second race
Changing human genes,
Building ‘em new again
To a perfect kind -
Modern Frankensteins
It's a simple plan:
They try to build a man
That's more productive,
More intelligent
Pefect mind and body
But it is no use
Humanity will lose
‘cause the greater mass
Becomes a second class
Nature's not to rule
Those who try to do
Could be the first to go
When the mutants come
Who would stop these slaves
When they leave their cage?
Then we'll meet our fate
‘cause they're better, they've got
Perfect mind and body
Nature's not to rule
Those who try to do
Could be the first to go
When the mutants come
Who would stop these slaves
When they leave their cage?
Then we'll meet our fate
‘cause they're better, they've got
Life means being perfect day by day
Restless
I need somebody's help to get away
Don't trust no one,
They don't want you, they want your pay
Win or loose
Machinery - destroying what I want to be
Machinery - there's nothing that you get for free
Reporters work for those who pay them well
Ruthless
The top priority is just to sell
Obey or die
If you don't play the game, you'll die
Win or loose
Machinery - doesn't care about you and me
Machinery - got no choice at all
The public wants to be fed with big lies
Illusions, images and big dreams
Turns fools into kings, let genies die meanwhile
The glory's half as bright as it seems to be
Why don't you really love the things you do?
Liar
No matter what it is, it won't be true
Bitch of success
You sold your honour for the gold
Win or loose
Machinery - destroying what I want to be
Machinery - got no choice at all
Machinery - there's nothing that you get for free
Now I sit and think
Another lousy drink
There has got to be a better way
They can't pull my chain
I'm the one to blame
It's for sure there always gonna pay
Finder's keepers, losers, weepers, haters, lovers ... a world away
I'm always alone in my dreamland
I'll show them I'm living my dream ´till the end
That's right
Can you feel my pain
Tears that fall like rain
Fall to dry but never leave a stain
People never learn
For every twist a turn
Twisting, burning bridges fall in vain
Finder's keepers, losers, weepers, haters, lovers ... a world away
I'm always alone in my dreamland
I'll show them I'm living my dream ´till the end
I'm always at home in my dreamland
I'll show that I'm living my dream ´till the end
Ideals and options, a cross for all to bear
Only to fall prey to blind eyes and closed ears
Without dreams we serve no purpose
Without dreams we walk among the dead
Finder's keepers, losers, weepers, haters, lovers ... a world away
I'm always alone in my dreamland
I'll show them I'm living my dream ´till the end
I'm always at home in my dreamland
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis, C. Efthimiadis, S. Fischer / Lyrics by P. Wagner
[The Mysterium]
Awakening this curse was the least of all my fears.
If I could turn back time to free me from this crime.
It started back in time when something stole my mind
and led me through aeons to place and time unknown.
I lived their life, lost in their time, without my face.
Take me back home from these cryptic walls.
I wait for a sign from my own reality, I wait here
in a nameless time.
A certain time passed by, I returned to my life
with memories hard to find, a secret in my mind.
I found it out, I've learned about the place I've been.
Take me away to these cryptic walls.
I wait for a sign from this old reality, it calls me
from a nameless time.
Take me back to these cryptic walls,
to this desert place and this strange reality, it calls me
from a nameless time.
[The Expedition]
I broke up to find this place, find those from the elder race.
In this unknown desert land I was digging in the sand.
Found these ruins, blocks of stone, older than the Egypt ones.
Climbed in caves, unspeakable, far down in the planets depths.
There were these enchanted books, pages that I've known too well,
written by the aliens ‘bout the way their study's been.
They transformed through space and time in all kinds of living minds
learning this way everything how through times the culture's been.
And I imagined how it's been like traveling through a name less time.
And I remembered how I felt when I was
in a nameless time, in a nameless time...
Take me home from these cryptic vaults.
I wait for a sign from my own reality, I wait here
in a nameless time.
[Finding Out]
Although the most I knew I needed a final proof
if I'd been one of them. And then these pages came :
My written words! So I'd been here in one of them...
Take me back home from these cryptic vaults.
‘cause I've been alive in this strange reality,
release me from this nameless time.
Take me home from these cryptic vaults.
I'm cursed for all time in this strange reality,
It's been a long night and it's cold there, outside
As I watch the break of day
It's starting to rain like the sky is crying in pain for me
I hear the sound of people running around
Life is there, beyond the door
I was with them, I know, just a few days ago but it's over
Dust in the wind
There is nothing lasting long
One thing must pass, the other's born
Dust in the wind
There is nothing left behind
All that we are's dust in the wind
Many were there, for my wounds they have cared
As I was lying on the ground
I wish I'd have made some friends
but now it's too late, I'm alone
Dust in the wind
There is nothing lasting long
One thing must pass, the other's born
Dust in the wind
There is nothing left behind
All that we are's dust in the wind
This is the end, brother give me your hand
I'm afraid to let it go
Noone's to blame if they forget
who's the name on my gravestone
Dust in the wind
There is nothing lasting long
One thing must pass, the other's born
Dust, only dust
There is nothing left behind
All that we are's dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
There is nothing left behind
I won't go where you've gone
‘cause it showed that it does not work.
If you stay where you are then you will bite the dust.
And I know what I know
I believe what my eyes can tell -
you're no longer so sure
that you've done it right.
Why did you what you've done?
All that's left is you've lost our trust.
All the people believe not a word that you say.
And you think you're so clever
that it makes you a better man
but for real you just live on the cost of us all.
Bastard, you bastard, stay where you are!
I don't believe you a word.
Lies are a weapon that kills from inside.
If there's no change you'll bury all life.
You steal from us all what we need to survive
looks like soon you will bury all life.
Open your eyes and see there's no way you can turn it back
when you sell what's not yours when you rape mother earth.
Now start making an end
a beginning to stop that waste.
Do you really believe
you could own all this land?
Bastard, you bastard, get outta my way!
I don't believe you a word.
Lies are a weapon that kills from inside.
If there's no change you'll bury all life
You steal from the world what it needs to survive
Looks like soon you will bury all life.
Looks like soon you will bury all life.
Sometimes when I'm by myself, before I fall asleep
the darkness becomes liquid and I'm drowning in the deep
Sinking like a stone, coming through different mental spheres
I see so many people reaching out when I get near.
I can see despair in their eyes and I hear them call,
they want me to rescue them, want me to free them all
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
They all lost their time
did not see their aim
died without a sense
they're still unredeemed
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
I've seen them everywhere in this world, legions of no hope.
They always close their eyes and they forget all what they know.
Perception comes to them when they are in the throes of death,
but it is too late to turn around...
If they'd seen it all before they wouldn't suffer this way now
‘cause it's easy dying after one has lived a fulfilled life
but perception comes to them when they are in the throes of death
and then it's too late to change it all...
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
Distant voices, I hear them calling me,
calling for me
In the top of the trees all these eyes follow me.
All is black, like the crows, stiff my neck as it bows.
On my knees I will play among death and decay,
And it blackens the sun as the end has begun.
I never saw the mighty spirits
That gathered now to purity the world.
It is the time of the changing season,
The cleaning hands of water. Wind and fire - feel the fire.
Winter rides the wings of heaven
Sorrow marches through the land.
This is the beginning of the end.
And the flood rises higher, swallows cities alive.
Still the flames' hunger grows, taking over our homes.
In the eye of the storm, gods creation reborn.
666 in our hearts, it will tear us apart.
This is the age of the sunlight children
And from the ashes we'll build it up again.
The curtain of the night will fall down
And stronger, wiser than before we'll stand - take my hand.
Winter rides the wings of heaven
Sorrow marches through the land.
This is the beginning of the end.
Darkness covers lonely faces,
Mercyful death takes their hand.
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner
Now, as I had a look at you
it took a heartbeat and I knew
that the candle of my life was burning shorter.
You turned me ‘round to face myself,
to make me trust in what I am,
now, after all that I have done it makes me wonder I'm around.
Now the night has gone, better days to come.
All this time I have been afraid, it is not too late...
All this time while we talked my thoughts collided.
All this time I could have seen but I was blind.
All this time...
I thought I'd never see the day
that in myself I'd feel this way.
We are the meaning and we know. Forever different - the same.
Now the night has gone, better days to come.
All this time I have strained my mind, waiting for a sign.
Time is like a river that is running out to sea.
We can't touch the ground, so grab a blade of straw.
If you swim on waves of trust you cannot even drown,
So sweet and defenceless
offeres all to my dependence
Just relax your spirit
we're all alone
Tied up in the darkness
you've forgotten you existance
waiting for the fire
and what's to come
Lost imaginations
coming back to scare the body
GOing down in fever
drawn to the flame
A sweet pain to cut the indifference
a forbidden love to come
You're immortal, you're immortal sin
Coming from behind you
feel the fingers reaching higher
Crawling on the floor
you won't get away
So sweet and dependet
I will offer my demands
So just relax your spirit
we're all alone
And you know you shouldn't walk this way
but you never want to hear
You're immortal, you're immortal sin
Musci & Lyrics by P.Wagner
On a dusty windinf roadm luck is not for free
If you did like you were told, you will never see
Just give me your heartblood...
Can it be a sin to speak in the tonque of freedom?
You will only win if you try the best to be you
Just give me your heartblood...
Warfare in a sick society
Out there dive it all or leave it be
No fear! What do you mean - security?
Who cares about you? You'll only hear
Give me your heartblood...
Musci by P.Wagner, S. Efthimiadis
Lyrics by P.Wagner
There is a window out of pain
but the grief will come again
swallow all the light and steal the sleep
tonight
I'll never see the day to take it all away
There was a time to play my cards
drown my anchor in the hearts
find the tracks to love and get the tricks to shove
I never found a way to make it here to stayMy world is a dark and out of touch
I'm left alone a bit too much
What you see is what you get
but when you can't there's nothing left
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave
My world is full of mortal scenes
that blind my eyes and steal my dreams
What you see is what you get
but when you can't there's nothing left
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave
My world is a dark and out of touch
I'm left alone a bit too much
What You see is what you get
but when you can't there's nothing left
My world is full of mortal scenes
that blind my eyes and steal my dreams
I can't see or feel it yet
and as I can't there's nothing left
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave
I'll miss it from the cradle to the grave
I'll miss you from the cradle to the grave....
Once our eyes stare hollow in to nothing
our fingers clutching helpless in the void
Then our skulls won't tell about our past lifes
rich or poor, we're gonna be destroyed
Nothing gonna save us from death, leave it all behind
and our gathering, it was all invain
Over and over again
building up castles of sand
Over and over again
all for a kingdom of sand in your hands
Bankers, beggans, soldiers, priests and sinners
leadres, losers, all will be the same
if you keep your millions on accountings
nothinf you will take out from this game
And in your last hideway that's kept far underground
you'll share your remains gust with the worms
Over and over again
building up castles of sand
Over and over again
Music by Christian Wolff
Musci by P.Wagner, C. Wolff
Lyrics by P.Wagner
Here I am still I try to find out where I'm really now
What has been I have laid it down forgotten on a shelf
An old pair of shoes I've grown out
There's never enough to take when you're
running away from emptiness
My days seem like wasted. I'm incomplete
I'm grieving, believe in the change in me
I'm lost alone and incompleteNow You're gone, I send my spirit out to
wander all the time
And my flesh, it is waiting for a time to be realised
All in one's hand , a touch at least
Confusion, nothing real
I'm lost without, I feel I'm almost gone
My days seem like wasted. I'm incomplete
I'm grieving, believe in the change in me
I'm lost alone and incomplete
Music by P.Wagner, C. Wolff
Lyrics by P.Wagner
This is my life and I won't compromise or waste my time
All I have done I did on purpose 'cause I want it to do
if I was wrong I'm very sorry but this happens when you try
sometimes you cann't forsee how things are working out
and what it's about...
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
And if I doubt I might have failed even before the day is done
how can I know if I don't dare?
Am I allowed do it twice if I don't make it at first time?
Then I will learn from my mistakes and I'll do right
haven't I try...?
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
I know you know that we can
We hold the key in our hands
to make it better, then it wasn't all in vain.
Hear me, what I've got to say
I know you and get you anyway
See me walking by your side
I'm with you forever day and night
Hey man, I'm your worst choice
You don't know, I want it so
Hey man, I'm your dark voice
You don't know where we will go
Straight to hell, straight to hell
Listen, listen what you say
I've taught you and you have learned your lesson
Feel me, when you feel the pain
I want you and I am going to get you.. anyway
I look like the easy way
The truth to be found
I seem to be innocent
I'm coming around, I'm coming around
I'm your worst choice
You don't know, I want it so
Hey man, I'm your dark voice
You don't know where we will go
You don't know where we will go
Straight to hell, straight to hell
I look like the easy way
The truth to be found
I seem to be innocent
I'm coming around, I'm coming around
I'm your worst choice
You don't know, I want it so
Hey man, I'm your dark voice
You don't know where we will go
You don't know where we will go
Nothing higher than the stars
And nothing deeper than my scars
Can show the difference between me and you
Let me take you by the hand
I'll lead you ways that never end
Yeah, I could show you if you dare to do
Danger, danger, catch the fall
The devil's painted on the wall
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
Riders, riders on the moonlight
If you want to taste the night
Just wait until the time is right
Then let the waves of darkness fill your mind
Sheltered by the shady green
We're out to see the things unseen
There ain't no thrills of any other kind
Danger, danger, heads will roll
The devil's painted on the wall
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
Riders, riders on the moonlight
We're lunatics, ridin'on the moonlight
Maniacs ridin'on the moonlight
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
We're riders, riders on the moonlight
Say - to where do we belong
Say - how far did we come
It seems to me we all agree
Humanity can rest in peace
Too bad but love is dead
Hey, who wakes the world
When there's no one that will hear
I have seen reflections of my inner self tonight
It was like a mirror in a pair of distant eyes
A scary view promised everything I knew
It connects the last four centuries with my life
Paranoia...Sister Demon on my mind
Sister Demon on my mind
She's a vampire...Sister Demon on my mind
Sister Demon on my mind
She has paralysed me, immortality awaits
Now, how will it be when I will feel her shiny teeth
Surrounding time with her presence into mine
Now I think will it be wonderful to die
Paranoia...Sister Demon on my mind
Sister demon on my mind
She's a vampire...Sister Demon on my mind
Sister demon on my mind
Sister Demon on my mind
Sister demon on my mind
Paranoia...Sister Demon on my mind
Sister demon on my mind
She's a vampire...Sister Demon on my mind
I don't want to leave this world behind
Was the only thing I had in mind
Now you've sent the angels back
I need them here on earth
'Cause eternity can be a long, long time
Don't turn your back on me, don't take away my choice
'Cause reality is lying to my mind, so now
I want to leave it all behind
I've got to leave it all behind
I need a window out of time
Come let me leave it all behind
Tell me 'bout the secrets of my life
What is it that makes me feel this way
I can feel my energy, it's turned against myself
Like a downwards spiral heading straight to hell
Maybe I could let it be and leave it all undone
'Cause I'm stumbling and it's time to say goodbye...goodbye
I want to leave it all behind
I've got to leave it all behind
I need a window out of time
Come let me leave it all behind
I can feel my energy, it's turned against myself
Like a downwards spiral heading straight to hell
Don't turn your back on me, don't take away my choice
'Cause I'm stumbling and it's time to say goodbye...goodbye
I want to leave it all behind
I've got to leave it all behind
I need a window out of time
This place, home for all generations, never's been to small
when all life worked hand in hand
the centuries passed one by one
without changing the circumstances
that we needed to be there
Like a firestorm
when all home dies and fear is born
to feed the firestorm
Like a firestorm
that burns the ground you're standing on
we'll feed the firestorm
And then - slowly but surely -
explorers and inventors stepped into
the system they didn't understand
that's when the trouble began
and when the time marched on
they had learned how to destroy
Like a firestorm...
The end of the story is: nothing's impossible
and that's what we're afraid of
apocalyptic signs, our homestead stands in flames
guess we missed the lesson modesty
Deep like blood
That's what she's all...she's got
Eyes like a knife
And she makes you want to fly
When she takes you through the night
One desire
Comes from the sleeping soul
Burns like fire
And it makes you want to cry
When it breaks into the mind
Deep in the night
In the absence of light, deep in the night
Deep in the night
Between passion and fright, deep in the night
Be my one
Be mine before it's gone
Time slips away
But your face won't see the day
Will you ever pass my way
When I'm begging you to stay tonight
Deep in the night
In the absence of light, deep in the night
Deep in the night
Between passion and fright, deep in the night
Deep like blood
That's what she's all...she's got
Eyes like a knife
And she makes you want to fly
When she takes you through the night
And she makes you want to fly tonight
Deep in the night
In the absence of light, deep in the night
Deep in the night
We're moving on, to where we don't know
After the end of eternity
We'll be gone and nothing will show
Maybe a name that is carved in stone
God forgive me, for I know what I have done
It wasn't meant to be so real
Endless nights, so many have passed
You were the first but not the last
Still I'm here, condemned to survive
I can't be dead, can't be alive
After all is said and done
We have to carry on
After the end
And with all that we've been through
There's nothing left to do
After the end
After all is said and done
We have to carry on
After the end
And if all of this is true
There's so much more to do
After the end
God forgive me, for I know what I have done
How can I trust you with your human nature
With all the dues that you don't want to pay
Between polarities of good and evil
You make decisions, trying to find your way
I'm coming back to you
Don't worry - I'll be coming over you
Don't you play this game of treason
It will all come back to you
So you better tell me no lies
You cannot fool me 'cause I know it better
I've seen it all, I've watched them come and go
I'm gonna be for you a painful lesson
I will fulfill for you the karmic law
I'm coming back to you
Don't worry - I'll be coming over you
Don't you play this game of treason
It will all come back to you
So you better tell me no lies
We will meet again next season
Then it will come back to you
So you better tell me no lies
I'm coming back to you
Don't worry - I'll be coming over you
Don't you play this game of treason
It will all come back to you
So you better tell me no lies
We will meet again next season
Then I'm coming over you
So you better tell me no lies
They came along last night
I knew again there was no end in sight.
We all had too much.
We needed a break to let it out our guts.
So we turned it on to its highest point
shot far over the line when its fun
we dropped out on the edge stumbling on the edge
Set the mind afire
let the engine run overpowered
‘n'break the bonds of sleep
feed the overdose with all to keep
And we turned it on to its highest point
shot far over the line when it's fun
we dropped out on the edge
stumbling on the edge
One the edge when there's no point to go further
there's no way to turn the steerwheel ‘round.
What else left then to take it as a man
accept the final rest for now
Terror, confrontation
With the army, splittered nation
Smash the mirror, there's no way back
To the reign of egoism and brutality
Now it's time to decide on what side you are on
It's too late for a false compromise
Overnight they came in the same old way
The same old combination
To the power comes the greed
Power and greed
People shook their fear off
Did not take this provocation
With their bodies against the tanks and
In the end the idea of democracy and freedom has won
Criticise what you think that is wrong
Now it's time to decide on what side you are on
It's too late for a false compromise
Overnight they came in the same old way
The same old combination,
To the power comes the greed
Power and greed
In these days when statues of old men
Crash down to the ground, the old order has gone
Nothing's like it was and chaos everywhere
From this ruins will grow a new chance for the world
When I remember what happened that lead me right here
what made me lonely and forced me to disappear.
There were periods in my life that came from my darkest depths, beyond the edge
like a delirium I couldn't help, I drifted aside, it wasn't right
Time, time had slipped away
life was a distant haze
this was on certain days
I, I had lost my way
got lost without a trace
this was on certain days, I went mad...
I can recall the days when things were fine
Everyone was happy enjoying their time
but the first time it came over me I had lost my friends, I did harm to them
the judges told me I was insane, I tried to kill, I tried to kill!
Time, time had slipped away
life - a distant haze
this was on certain days
I, I had lost my way
got lost without a trace
I have a strange dream
I cannot explain
And when I'll lay down
It will come back again
In a mysterious landscape
Far beyond my belief
In a shape that I can't face
I have found the real me
I have the one desire, it sets my soul afire
There's something waiting in the deep
Beyond the wall of sleep
And this something had hurt me
It will pay for my pain
When my destiny's fulfilled
I won't come back again
I have done the one desire, it sets my soul afire
There's something waiting the deep
Give me just one more night and I can make it right
There's one appointment I must keep
When it is night and there is darkness in your room
You hear a sound with sharpened ears
Then it is me ‘cause I return from time to time
And I have heard your silent tears
You lock your bedroom door and close the window
Indeed you know that there is no way to hide
I get in from the door on the backside
Baby, I'm your nightmare
But I know that you will like the creeps
‘Cause nothing thrills like scary deeds
I know that you will like the creeps
You know you'll like the creeps
We learned to know each other many years ago
And in those days I was your man
We never could have been a couple, you and me
But still I do the best I can
To make your sheets alive and fill the space up
That all the others still were leaving behind
To make that sweat is running down your spine
Baby, I'm your nightmare...
We make your sheets alive and fill the space up
That all the others still were leaving behind
To make that sweat is running down your spine
Baby, I'm your nightmare...
You know you can't get over me
‘Cause I can set desire free
When moonlight's shining through the trees
I'm coming from your fantasies
You need that dirty mad dog, me
You cannot live without, you see
And when it's dreamtime I'll return
To feed the flame in you, it burns for me,
‘Cause I'm your nightmare
My friend, I'm with you.
I'm watching every step you do.
I try to guard your way.
They're all around me,
The ones you're missing in your life.
We're never gone, no way.
We're all around you, everywhere.
Just do believe and be aware.
It's all arranged for us this way.
This is a world, that's next to yours.
You can't see us, we can see you.
The soul lives on, we're ghosts
My friend, no fear now,
This is a part of the plan.
We have to let it go.
It's temporarily,
The shape just shows the status quo,
The level of the soul.
We're all around you...
Hey, this is new, it is what I have to do.
Now give me strength to face it.
Time - let me learn, getting higher, get the turn.
I'm getting closer to you.
There was a totally different version of this on
our first "Avenger" demo in '83, in fact only
the chorus remains...
Read in the bible what's written there'll one
day come true ‘bout the end of the world an
all life and all things that we knew.
The reaper is sharpening his scythe,
this is the end of your body
and day will be night.
The sun will fade its light away
the good will go, the bad must stay.
On the destination day
when all life is blown away
on the destination day
there is no more use in praying.
Nuclear power will soon
bring all mankind to fall
they destroy all their land just for cash
and they don't care at all.
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
Your body is covered with lava,
torn up from earth's crust.
The sea will overflow the land
and you will die then hand in hand
On the destination day
when all life is blown away
on the destination day
when all life is blown away
on the destination day
You don't like what you see
you don't know what it means and what it's like.
You close your eyes, you're afraid that all you
have learned has changed
Time waits for noone
You can't fix it if you try
Time waits for noone
You can join it for a little while
Once put into your brain
all the things of life got a special frame
but you forget that this world's go a different
face each day
Time waits for noone
You can't fix it if you try
Time waits for noone
You can join it for a little while
You can join it till you die
"What's this jungle noise?
Long haired filthy boys?
Sex before marriage?
You don't believe in the pope?!
You've got a right to take what life offers you
don't let others mark out your scope
You better break out from all what chained you up
there is more to be than they said
The inner search needs more than words
Just hear the call for the inner search
You can hear a lot, but to understand
let the confusing voices die first
blow the flickering light out that's in your head
see the one that's always been there
The inner search needs more than words
Just hear the call for the inner search
That you are is yours, belongs just to you
to noone else, to no man, to no god
Keep your own truth in yourself as the only light
and be your own hope and a fear cannot get ya, get ya...
No point in revealing your fate for what you hate
be true to yourself, it's your responsibility
No point in believing that gods can help you out
it's your inner voice leading you to the right choice
Get up for a sense, take your life in your own hands
hear your inner voice leading you to the right choice
That you are is yours, belongs just to you
to noone else, to no man, to no god
Keep your own truth in yourself as the only light
and be your own hope and a fear cannot get ya, get ya...
The inner search needs more than words
This is for you, you know who you are,
better believe what I tell you now.
For all the others, ‘cause everybody's
got someone in his life that he hates, I know.
I'm used to be calm and not too beasty
but this is more than I can endure.
You dealt with me really mean and nasty
I don't wanna be patient with you no more
Make my day!
This is the sign of my deadly hammer
leaving its marks on your face right now.
You won't hear my warning, now you're bound to make my day
C'mon you sucker, make my day
Make my day!
I'd like to smash all your toys to pieces
tickle your feet until you drop dead
I'd tie you tight to a stake and stain you
with honey, then let the ants run free
Make my day!
This is the sign of my deadly hammer
leaving its marks on your face right now.
You won't hear my warning, now you're bound to make my day
C'mon you sucker, make my day
Make my day!
Don't open up what you call your head, now
I don't want no answer, I'm through with you.
Save your excuse, I don't want to hear it
it's just a lie, anyway, I know!
Make my day!
This is the sign of my deadly hammer
leaving its marks on your face right now.
You won't hear my warning, now you're bound to make my day
C'mon you sucker, make my day
C'mon you sucker, make my day
C'mon you sucker make my day
Disturbing the peace of the night for a raid
Stealing goods taken through greed
A playtoty transcendental powers had made
This is the thing that you need
Chorus:
Hand of glory
Stopping all the sleepers from awakening this night
Hand of glory
Witchcraft triumphs in joy while the fingers are
set alight
All who live in this house fell asleep
The hand was making them drowse
Now there's time to take all you need
Ho hindrance to plund'rin' this house
Chorus
First you need a hanged man's corpse
Cut off the left hand and preserve it
But dress it not with tannin pure
Witches know the right mixture
The hand makes succesfull robbery - well
But just take care of the thumb
If it don't burn someone's not in the spell
And he'll discover your plan
Chorus
I've been stumblin' through my years
All I had was sweat and tears
When I thought I had it made
I was always much too late
And throughout my whole life I've done everything wrong
Chorus:
No way out - suicide
No way out - suicide
I am loosing all I get
For myself there's just regret
And my brain, it feels so ill
Am I waiting for the kill?
What the hell's there on earth that cold keep me alive?
Chorus
There's a shadow on my back
I've been taking the wrong track
Now I've gone a bit too far
I've begun a private war
All I hate is myself but I've shot someone else
What's this scenery, I can see it clearly.
I'm the visionary, it's the moment of my birth.
The intention's here, this was how I planned to be
But really shows the weaker part of me.
I wish that I could turn back time.
Journey far beyond my memory,
Driven back in time.
Travel to my secret history,
Driven back in time,
Driven back in time,
Driven back in time.
Though the centuries, I tried to get experienced.
Now I have to see, wisdom starts where knowledge ends.
Once again I've failed, I didn't use my precious time
To fulfill my part, to remember me that I'm
Liked into the global vision
He comes in the kitchen, a smile on his face
"My dear, this will free you from all of your straits!"
And he turns on the switch and it starts to move -
This TV commercial has caught us anew
Supersonic hydromatic, nothing works without it now
Be a real progress fanatic and you will believe somehow
"Oh yeah, this must be a real innovation!"
Away with the critical mind for a sense
And he opens the purse and he pays for thing
That you only need if you're spastic and dim
Supersonic hydromatic, superultrameganew
Household furniture, like magic,
The neighbour's wife has got one, too
No! Noone needs your offal!
This isn't worth it at all
He comes in the kitchen, a smile on his face
And he turns on the switch and it blows up!
"Instead of having a help I'm a big fool," he says
Supersonic hydromatic, nothing works without it now
Be a real progress fanatic and you will believe somehow
No! Noone needs your offal!
This isn't worth it at all
Supersonic hydromatic, nothing works without it now
Be a real progress fanatic and you will believe somehow
Supersonic hydromatic, superultrameganew
Household furniture, like magic,
Do you know, it scared me to death
When I first saw you right after this
Your face so pale on that sheet in that chest
Really, man, it scared me to death
They called in the morning
Told me you had died last night
I cried my eyes out
The sorrow blinded me for light
Like flowers that fade in my hands
Everywhere I feel your presence
I've grown since you left, you must be inside me
Sometimes I hear you talking
though my mouth
And sometimes I know you're seeing through my eyes
The father I once knew
Has become a close friend
The skill in my hand
It makes me understand that we're
Like flowers that fade in my hands
Mother said you would have liked
To stay a little longer
I don't want to think about
What could have been or not
Now I know you haven't gone
You're still here by my side
Into every straw of grass
Or in the fading light
I wouldn't mind to follow you
Any time or day
And inbetween, I've gotta go
A long and winding way
Now I know that death has no scares
Within the remains I've got my share
And I know my death has no scares
There is no mysterium for someone who dares to die
And when I'm with you
Next to the flowers on your grave
It's such a comfort
To feel the earth that leads to you
Autumn - the time of darkness and decay
Life's running shorter day by day
Winter -has gripped the land in cold caress
He's all alone and deeply depressed, she's dead
Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe
And warm
Don't you fear the winter, nothing's gonna
Do you harm
Midnight - and on the graveyard a storm is raging
The clods of earth hide his whole life
Homeless - who's lonely now will be for long
The wind will drift him on and on, like the leaves
Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe
And warm
Don't you fear the winter, come with me
There'll be no harm
A silent might that has moved you
Hear your waters stand still
Striding down to the elder
Soon you'll meet her again
Autumn - who's got the time knows nothing yet
Who cares? But watchful are the dead
Midnight - It's hard to face and deeply sad
But you're asleep so don't look back, you're dead
Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe
And warm
Don't you fear the winter, nothing's gonna
Do you harm
Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe
And warm
Don't you fear the winter, come with me
Harold Walker was a banker
He drove a Mercerdes-Benz
He was a well respected, rich, young man
He'd got a house in the country
He was a member of the club and
His girlfriend Diana was so sweet
Larry Smith was Harry's schoolmate
He has always been a warrior
Never he had money or a job
Wednesday afternoon, 5 p.m.
It happened on the new built highway
Harry was a bit diverted and
So he lost the control of his car
And crashed into a truck
And he hadn't a chance, he had never a chance
Death in the afternoon,
Larry was the first to come along
As he saw his old mate Harry
The chequecards covered with blood,
He knew, he was the richer one of both
Harry had a million dollars
But he'd lived to short
And he hadn't a chance, he had never a chance
Death in the afternoon
Death in the afternoon
It could come very soon
Death in the afternoon
Have you ever heard ‘bout the people who burned
Somehow immediately down with no reason at all,
They didn't play with fire, they had no deathwish and it
happened in a few minutes, it destroyed them completely
Just like Dr. Bentley, when they found him there was no smoke
nor a spell but the ceiling was burned,
They found his right leg and the morning gown,
It was still intact but the doctor had gone
What's this fire that burns the wires?
Death by fire from the wires
There was nothing left. They found only ashes on the ground
Noone could explain,
Noone would believe it.
It's a phenomenon that's not often been seen,
Like an inner heat burns the body complete.
This is still a riddle that cuts us down to size
We are still quite helpless in our modern days.
What's this fire that burns the wires?
Death by fire from the wires
There was nothing left. They found only ashes on the ground
Noone could explain,
Noone would believe it.
There was nothing left. They found only ashes on the ground
In this cdase it seems that our rules are not worth a dime.
No way to run and hide
(3:57)
(Instrumental)
(japanese bonus)
The fire's burning bloody red
The tide is turning but we don't regret
The devil's demons 're coming in our lifes
All evil dreams, we make 'em here alive
Look into our torture chambers, your life isn't worth a dime
Hating, raping, killing day by day
That's how, how we teat each other
We never learn from history, this world's a big absurdity
That's how, how we treat each other
We seem too blind to see it's us who's wasted in our hands at last...
Dropped bombs are falling, falling to the ground
The politicians, they won't hear a sound
Look into the cities jungle, your life isn't worth a dime
Hating, raping, killing day by day
That's how, how we teat each other
We never learn from history, this world's a big absurdity
That's how, how we treat each other
We seem too blind to see it's us who's wasted in our hands at last...
The kid is killing, doesn't know 'bout life
That he's destroying, too fragile to survive
That's how, how we teat each other
We never learn from history, this world's a big absurdity
That's how, how we treat each other
Humanity is just a word, it echoes on, remains unheard
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis.
Lyrics by P. Wagner.
Thinking on my yesterdays,
I have failed in many ways,
but I won't complain, 'cause I
had my share when luck passed by.
Then you came into my life
and became my biggest pride.
I thought the cards had turned for me,
oh, if I knew.
And then, when this fatal moment came to be
I couldn't turn the steering wheel around...
Once I feel in love with you,
now I can't stop feeling blue.
Will I ever be the same?
Free me from this crying shame,
Hey, you won't find me.
I'll, I'll hide 'till the end of all days.
I still don't know what happened there,
my mind is blocked, I was too scared.
But they told me you had died,
now the future's out of sight.
If I could have seen it coming
I'd had turned the other way,
but then we were smashed,
our lifes were torn apart.
They can tell me a hundred times I'm not to blame.
I didn't turn the steering wheel around...
Once I feel in love with you,
now I can't stop feeling blue.
Will I ever be the same?
Free me from this crying shame,
Hey, you won't find me.
bonus track
It was so disappointing
That all my trust was built on sand
It was against all reason
Although it happened again and again
Eye to eye the innocence died
Forgive but don't forget
Never fail twice
Forgive but don't forget
Straight through the lies
Your speech was full of treason
Although your heart was innocent
I had to pay for your sins
I healed my wounds, now I'm stronger than all
Head to toes experience grows
Forgive but don't forget
Never fail twice
Forgive but don't forget
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis.
Lyrics by P. Wagner.
Hey, what have they done to you?
Say, do you mean what you do?
Just like a spark that fell aside, or what -
you're telling me you're happy but I know you're not.
I look into your eyes and see you heart is black.
Are you afraid of me or why don't you look back?
You're telling me to follow, do it like you've said,
you'll get me never, never, never...
What has happened to you life?
Do you really want it so, 'cause
I don't want to be like you, the time will come,
when everything too late
Deep in the blackest hole.
I'll never be like you and you will end
frustrated, full on hate,
deep in the blackest hole!
You don't like to see the world
like it is, you try to change it all.
You're in defense, only appologize,
you're telling me you're lucky but I know your lies.
I look into your eyes and see your heart turns red
like if you're wounded but no drop of blood is shed.
You don't look for a cure, instead you're hurting me,
You'll get me never, never, never...
What has happened to you life?
Everything you had is missing.
I don't want to be like you, the time will come,
when everything too late
Deep in the blackest hole.
I'll never be like you and you will end
frustrated, full on hate,
deep in the blackest hole!
What has happened to you life?
Do you really want it so, 'cause
I don't want to be like you, the time will come,
when everything too late
Deep in the blackest hole.
I'll never be like you and you will end
frustrated, full on hate,
Time will come when you fell down
Everything you had is gone
and whatever you had thought you'd really need
is meaningless, you turn around
caught by light a distant sound
like a creature that is drawn into the flame
Turn the page and face another day
on that stage that you're supposed to stay
Turn tha page and fill it up with life
I won't sigh when time will turn the page
You're alone during the stay
Company can share your way
but they'll never ever make it really close
to the core, to the beyond
What's in store on from this point
will surprisingly be scaring joyful pain
Turn the page and face another day
Take your time cause something's on the way
Turn the page and fill it up with life
And don't sigh when time will turn the page
On these tracks we walk, we've got a choice
Be aware. I'll be your voice...
Time will come you're down
everything you had is gone
And whatever you had thought you'd really need
is meaningless, you turn around
caught by light a distant sound
like a creature that is drawn into the flame
Turn the page and face another day
on that stage that you're supposed to stay
Turn tha page and fill it up with life
This is an absolute smasher that I'd totally
forgotten. Maybe it should have appeared on
"Reign of fear". No compromise - bang it out!
Look into my eyes and sink deeper
look into my eyes,
drown into my will like a sleeper,
drown into my eyes.
Now you feel as light as a feather,
leave it all behind.
Strip your mind of all that encaged you,
forget about the time.
And from the first sight to the last
the world is tumbling into vertigo.
I can lead you, ways to explore you,
ways you'd never find.
I can make you mine if I want to,
you'd make up my mind.
Feel these healing hands,
eyes of fire, magic pendulum
makes you dizzy at first sight,
now my time has come.
And from the first sight to the last
the world is tumbling into vertigo.
Oh, something touched you deep inside
oh, take hold of a distant light
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner
I awoke, I could not stay for more,
I tried to tell the others what I'd seen before.
No one believed me, "it's a dream" they said.
But I have seen eternity when I was dead.
Who decided who's to go and who's to stay on this old world?
This time now my path lead me to life.
There was a vision that lightened up my life
and now I know it was death that I have tried.
Although I came back I've seen the other side,
so I will never forget until I die.
I remember seeing my body lying
after the accident, my soul was drifting away,
passing darkness to a golden light
into the arms of Jesus with my fathers eyes.
He decided I'd to go and stay for longer in this world
until I have walked my path of life.
There was a vision...
There's a legion of the long - gone there,
a bundled energy of all that once were here.
No one's lost, a comfort we can share,
like a kind of existence, timeless, everywhere.
Death in the night, murder,
robbery, the violence
Is our daily bread, there is a
common tense
Kids in the street feeling cool, they killed the neighbour's cat
They cannot feel respect for life.
Now what if they were dead?
Man in the dark killed the feelings of the girl next door
Raping her for a shot, now she can't trust a man no more
In every twisted mind
There's something still behind
Humanity lives on
Forever in the
True face in everyone, conscience can't lie
True face in everyone, facing the lies
Man at the front shooting brothers in the name of God
Preachers, generals lead their countries into death
Mindgames called religion, ideology
Set above life and the industry is feeding it for cash
Reason to survive
The spirit is alive
The meaning of the things
Perception is the
True face in everyone, time after time
True face in everyone, conscience can't lie
True face in everyone, time after time
Whatever you may say
How long you want to stay,
Tomorrow's yesterday
We're tomorrow's yesterday.
It seems we've tried too much
To keep the status, to longer the touch
Of what we are today. Afraid of change we see
And interprete eternity like it's a static way.
Whatever you may say
How long you want to stay,
Tomorrow's yesterday
We're tomorrow's yesterday.
And if we just accept the things,
It's hard to bring us down.
'Cause if we try to force the will
We break the rules and feed the firestorm.
Afraid of death we are
We close our eyes from where we are,
A point of no return. Misunderstanding that
The person we are is another step
For ourselves to learn.
Whatever you may say
How long you want to stay,
Tomorrow's yesterday
We're tomorrow's yesterday.
If we will try to let it go we open ways to get.
We better do a step aside, give room to grow,
Not feed the firestorm.
Come with me, it's hard to make you see
Just what it means to be,
Why can't you see.
Rising high, I know we have to try. Don't give it up
For lies. Why can't you try.
Talk to me. I'll try to make you see just what it
Means to be, just let it be...
Time is so relative, in secrecy we're learning to live
And nothing was in vain.
We'll stand the rest of time,
Discovering the inner divine.
The rules made not the game.
Whatever you may say
How long you want to stay,
Tomorrow's yesterday

Some kids of today
Live a boring life, they say
Playing deadly games
Risk their life for just a thrill
No one wants to see how final is eternity
Show me you're alive, I'm waiting for a sign
Frame their gallows, meet their death
They tie the rope they'll hang at last
Open up your eyes
Life means more than being alive
Check out what you've got
The end will be there soon enough
No one wants to see how final is eternity
Show me you're alive, I'm waiting for a sign
Frame their gallows, meet their death
I wrote this one in '88 during a tour - which is
probably why I forgot about it. (On tour you can
never remember what happened from one day
to the next!)
People running same old ways.
See, tradition rules this place
though it may be sometimes good I say
mostly there is no real sense
maybe a kind of sentimentality
the reason's lost so long ago.
I don't want to be l
like my mind's not free
No, I'll choose the new and unknown
No way out, no way to run
oh, from the unknown
Everything's in constant change
try to build your mental range
if you want to grow and reach your size
Fear has killed what reason bore
a policy that keeps you torn
but security's not all that counts
I don't want to be
like my mind's not free.
No, I'll choose the new and unknown
No way out, no way to run
oh, from the unknown
A hundred times it passed me by
You'll take my life but I'll take your's too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back
The bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We were meant to fight another day
We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below
And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
I listened inside myself,
the voice that I heard, it wasn't mine,
it came from time to time.
I listened real close and I found out
that someone was talking through my mind,
told me wat to find.
With every sense on highest intense
I tried to understand and I
asked in the dark
and got an answer and since then I know
I'm talking to the dead
I'm talking to the dead
You gotta hear me
talking to the dead,
I'm talking to the dead
and I can hear them talk!
There are so many voices,
they all belong to different heads
and they all are dead.
They have eternal knowldge
and they will help me anytime,
they are on my mind.
With every sense on highest intense
I tried to understand and I
asked in the dark
and got an answer and since then I know
I'm talking to the dead
I'm talking to the dead
You gotta hear me
talking to the dead,
I'm talking to the dead
Here we are, we talk about too many things.
But we can't
find the words when death is on it's way.
If we don't remember this
we won't be prepare for the final day.
A silent victory, it made me see
that all is meant to be,
my dearest friend, it's not the end.
Our time is short,
our castles built on sand of make believe.
At the gates of eternity the heart is free.
And I will remember this
something's there that's stronger than our pain.
A silent victory, it made me see
that all is meant to be,
my dearest friend, it's not the end.
A silence victory, it made me free
to step outside on me
and in the end I'm born again.
I reach out my hands to reality of life
far beyond all images.
And I will remember this
something's there that's stronger than our pain.
A silent victory, it made me see
that all is meant to be,
my dearest friend, it's not the end.
A silence victory, it made me free
to step outside on me
I've been waiting for an invitation
couldn't leave my selfmade reservation
I had locked the doors and threw the key away
There was nothing but my own reflection
and the phone was silent, no connection
I was turning just in circles with no end
All that I had, it was gone, it was dead
But now my night is surrounded by light
This nust be a sign of heaven, a sign of heaven
the nightmare's over
As the winter left the frozen places
and the mirror smiled at lonely face
The my leaves they started slowly reached out
Now your laughter echoes in the silence
and your waters wash the dirt from my hands
as we harvest all the fruits that come our way
All that I had, it was gone, it was dead
But now my night is surrounded by light
This nust be a sign of heaven, a sign of heaven
the nightmare's over
There was nothing but my own reflection
Hey, I know someone who's got a real special love.
She is made of sheet metal, her name's Christine.
She takes sweet revenge
hunt them till the end
She's a lady in red varnish and shining chrome
She's alive and she's more jealous than girls in flesh and blood
All the other guys don't like him, so one night
they are smashing Christine, but she gets up again.
She takes sweet revenge
hunt them till the end
She's a lady in red varnish and shining chrome
She's alive and she's more jealous than girls
in flesh and blood
There she's waiting behind the corner,
fixing them with her blinding lights.
They won't escape out of this misty night alive
and she won't come to harm...
She is keeping him from all his friends away.
He is getting more paranoid each day.
She takes sweet revenge hunt them till the end
She's a lady in red varnish and shining chrome
He's a wreck and he's more jealous than boys in flesh and blood
He takes sweet revenge
Leader of the state
Now, as there's the time for changes
The growing fear and hate,
It will cost you your head, dictator
Grown from the heart
Bursting out to break the silence
A will to be free
People have remembered the sun
Oh, you know it's up to you
So many years - it's much too long that you have fooled
A whole nation
Slink away and set us fee
We live our lives as it's meant to be
You know inside that it's true, so shame on you
You and your pack
You shouldn't have been so selfish
Lost from the start
Injustice your best companion
No, you cannot save your skin
‘Cause every day a new life will begin
And you won't be in
Slink away and set us free
We live our lives as it's meant to be
You know we're right and it's true, so shame on you
Another day in darkland
He killed his family
Just couldn't see a future
Like he was told to be
And as the great provider
Stopped his source to survive
He found he served the wrong gods
A credit or his life
And the we read the news from all around the world
'Bout all this tragedies we cannot understand
How can you say it's only letters that don't matter much
That you don't care ´bout all this misery in you and me
All this insanity surrounding me
All this insanity is killing me
Another night in dreamworld
She had it up to here
So went up to the rooftop
Got rid of all her fear
Well, as her head was shattered
She made peace with her age
There lying on the pavement
She finally left the stage
And on the television rules an abstract life
Where next to youth and beauty nothing can survive
How can you say it's just a point of view, it's up to you
While in the hidden grows this misery in you and me
All this insanity surrounding me
This is my life and I won't compromise or waste my time
All I have done I did on purpose 'cause I want it to do
if I was wrong I'm very sorry but this happens when you try
sometimes you cann't forsee how things are working out
and what it's about...
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
And if I doubt I might have failed even before the day is done
how can I know if I don't dare?
Am I allowed do it twice if I don't make it at first time?
Then I will learn from my mistakes and I'll do right
haven't I try...?
if it all was in vain I won't sigh for a single day
I'll do it again and again
If it was in vain I will wait for another time
I swear. I won't go down again
I know you know that we can
We hold the key in our hands
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner.
So, now my time has come.
I will be dead and gone
from the earth's face.
It is my destiny,
this time I cannot cannot hide
from this cruel fate.
A never ending memory,
a life before my eyes.
Whatever comes, whatever's been,
my pocket full of lies.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
higher than the sky.
An ordinary flight,
who could imagine this
will be our death cell.
No miracle in sight,
We're diving faster now,
as for as I can tell.
I see the faces passing by,
there's fear inside this eyes.
They all will be my company
we're brothers now for life.
Like an arrow in the air,
falling endlessly and I know we're gonna be
Higher than the sky, we're
In her diary's black pages
the stories end in dark sadness
and what she never dared to say
is in her diary's black pages
She's a magician, she's got second sight
sends her mind wandering into the night,
into the future - stories untold
tragedies and accidents - she always knows
In her diary's black pages
the stories end in dark sadness
and what she never dared to say
is in her diary's black pages
Brother kills brother, family fights
Fire burns babies while the mother sleeps tight.
Whatever she's dreaming, it's gonna be real
Oh, shit, I'm getting sick of this
I'm caught and I can't escape
It's gonna blow my head, you fucker get away
Me, madman in a rage
I hit the ceiling
outta my mind
Oh, when I get free
I'm gonna hand'em high
Hatred
Oh, baby, it's too unfair
The whole thing's such a mess
Would someone keep the door locked up
When the house is falling in?
The time is coming
I don't want no more
I should believe in
Oh, man, what a bore
Hatred
Maybe you think it's alright, well
But ain't it a pity to hang
around with nothing to do
but watching it? Maybe someone
needs a big kick in his map!
And my brain feels like a rock.
In my veins the stream is locked.
There's no pulse and there's no beat.
I am dead but not complete.
I must be waiting for the day,
lying in this box.
When they found a way against decay,
till then I'm this block of
frozen fire, in this iceland sleeps desire,
frozen fire, a blue flame beneath the wire,
I'm frozen...
In this darkness I'm alone.
Will I stay or am I gone?
Where're the others by my side?
Help me in eternal night!
Slowly I feel a growing fear,
could this be my hell?
If they can't find the way out if here
I'm forgotten, last farewell, I'm
frozen fire, in this iceland sleeps desire,
frozen fire, a blue flame beneath the wire,
I'm frozen...
Hey don't walk on by
you, don't stomp on my face
Once I was like you
I didn't care for nothing else
had no sense for more than money and fame
power and greed and the so called honour
Now I am gone and my body lies cold
not much is left, so I pray
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
Listen now!
Time - I never had
rushed through a restless day
You seem to be blind, too,
when luck comes your way
You had no patience with people who cared
until you lost them and when you grow old
you'll be a lonely rich man without hope
there's more to be than we see
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
From the underworld, oh, listen now!
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
From the beginning you learned that we all have to die.
You got so used to the fact that you don't wonder why.
you don't ask:
how does it feel to someone when the moment has come?
When all is taken away, an existence is gone, who'll be his guide?
Take his soul and take his mind
and his opened eyes stay blind.
Forever - you know there was someone inside,
the smile on these lips don't seem right.
Forever's a very long time.
Forever - these cheeks growing colder and grey,
a smile that is fading away.
Forever's a very long time.
You know it happens a thousand times every day.
You can't imagine you might be the next, you don't want to care.
But Lady luck is a bitch, won't stay at one place twice,
wipes a curl from your eye and kisses you goodbye, bye bye...
Leaves your soul and leaves your mind
and your broken eyes stay blind.
Forever....
So take good care of what you say.
It might be coming back one day.
So take good care of what you do.
This chance might be the last for you.
Oh, how good it was a long, long time ago
Life was young and everything was bound to grow
Yes, we've made it, we were fruitful and explored
But now it's overloaded
It might as well explode - anytime
Hear my warning
Death is dawning
This is a world of pain
No tomorrow
Only sorrow
Live in a world of pain
All this time the spiral's turning till we fall
Why, oh why we never tried to take control
Is it that we're egoistic ´till the end
It's "after me the flood"
We blame it all on god, but it's not...
Hear my warning
Death is dawning
This is a world of pain
No tomorrow
Only sorrow
Live in a world of pain
I don't wanna live
a) The devil's triangle
Tell the press that we can't say more,
there's nothing that we know ‘bout for sure.
What has happend to our machines?
We found no wrecks and nothing was seen.
Fourteen men are lost anywhere,
there's nothing we can do for them there.
Those guys we have sent out for the search,
they're missing too, it seems as if we're cursed.
Mayday, mayday!
Without a trace flight 19 got lost in the sky
Mayday, mayday!
Without a trace flight 19 got lost in the sky
Many ships and planes we miss
in this part of the Atlantic.
IN the Bermuda triangle
magnetic fields are disturbed sometimes.
Maybe that's a reason, but
who knows what really happened there?
Is the flying dutchman real,
are they transferred from space and time in another sphere?
Mayday, mayday!
Without a trace flight 19 got lost in the sky
Mayday, mayday!
Without a trace flight 19 got lost in the sky
b) Atlantis
Drowned in the sea, some thousand years ago
we searched for ages for the place
but noone yet has found a way through the haze, no
Myths and legends wind ‘round treasure there to find
a whole civilization died
and all they knew, it sunk with them in their grave
The scientists found out some theories about
an earthquake dragged it all away,
maybe this was meant in tales ‘bout the flood...
The earth has changed its face and took our fruits away
We know, the people there were wise
was mankind's cradle lost before our time?
Mayday, mayday!
Mayday, mayday!
Without a trace Atlantis drowned into the sea
Without a trace Atlantis drowned into the sea
c) Uninvited Visitors
I've seen, I have seen them, I know what I tell you
last night when I drove home they were there, this is true
They hung in the air above the motorway
then they came down to me
a phosphorising light piercing me and the
time, it stood still on the motorway
then they came down to me
a phosphorising light piercing me and the time, it stood still
I've heard from a neighbour, he saw them at home.
They stood before his window watching him, so
maybe they first want to study our life,
yeah, they study our life.
Before they get in contact with us they must know who we are.
Do you know ‘bout the U.F.O.'s
maybe there's more life than we know
what comes now? I am eager to know,
will they come back and clear our doubts?
Without a trace they came and left us in a mess
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner.
Headed away and took off in the sky,
the air was as bright as my mind.
And everything on the ground floated by,
a land of toys, undefined.
Glittering clouds that were puzzled in the air,
hiding a secret, not easy to share.
I've got visions and I can't
get then out of my mind,
it was a moment in time.
I've got visions and I can't
get them out of my mind,
what am I leaving behind?
I've got visions...
I saw a face that I'll never forget,
staring at me through the mist.
Leaving a trace that lead into my head,
the other side I have missed.
There in the hemispheres I caught a view in life
where all is streaming and nothing will die.
I've got visions and I can't
get then out of my mind,
it was a moment in time.
I've got visions and I can't
get them out of my mind,
what am I leaving behind?
Why do you look for answers in the extremes? Forget the radical
‘cause the truth is mostly somewhere in between
Nevermind the simple minded as long their heart beats in the right place,
but for heaven's sake if they forgot their aims (and to tell their kids)
Now they are trapped and they don't even care
still they don't understand what it means
dimborn they never have learned anything
they are trapped in a world reigned in fear
Who dares to stop these fools?
We need revolution - someone has to change the crusted rites
but we need heads that can think before they act
‘cause it has to happen in a way that changes the conditions for the better
There's no time for old mistakes
Now they are trapped...
Who dares to stop these fools?
Brutality is trendy, discussing's for old farts
Today the cracked voice of youth screams out the fatal fascists call
All the mindless, unwanted, frustrated think that there's a way to bring sense in their life
They confuse the Free with lemmings...
Now they are trapped...
He's got a pleasure in his
life that's a real chill
I think it's funny but the people say he's ill
He likes to keep what's transient,
save it from decay
That's what you've got to know
if you should pass his way
He's not a killer,but death is his dearest friend
It is for everyone beginning and the end
And on the graveyard,
where there's rich and poor the same
He's digging in the ground to set them free again
They've been part of the universe
And they are unique on this earth
And when you dies he's at your door
I tell you what he's waiting for
He's gonna get you when you are dead
He's gonna cut your skull free when you're dead
He's gonna get you when you are dead
You're gonna be the next one when you're dead
It's a passion with him
to free them from their flesh
All night he's in the cellar rigging up remains
And then he's got them all together one by one
A real collector of the dead, a lucky man
Just give a damn for reverence
He's nuts and doesn't need no sense
And when you die he's at your door
I tell you what he's waiting for
(Repeat 2nd verse)
DEAD! DEAD. "won't you give me your mother?
Gonna rip her with real care
This femoral's real fine
A quick one to warm your fingers. We're used to play things
like this before rehearsing. Originally we wanted to put it on
"Reflections..." as a bonus but we already had too much
Let me take you far away, beginning of your days,
The agony is written in your eyes.
This is how you've always felt,
You see it through the haze.
Remember how you've locked it up in lies.
They're coming back from far away,
They're coming back, they cannot stay.
So I will pray to purify my mind.
Wash my sins away,
Take my sorrow and pain.
Wash my sins away,
Dry my rears with your rain.
Scars from yesterday,
Make my sins, oh, please wash them away.
Live again through feelings
That have shattered all your trust,
The pain you've felt
Is burned into your heart.
Never understood,
You were rejected, on the run
And, till today it's tearing you apart.
Will you wake me?
Wake me when I'm dead
I think it's time now, I gotta go
but don't you shed a tear when I'm gone.
Before it's over,
I hope that I don't suffer too much, when it's over
I don't want to miss this place
I hate to leave, I just can't face
realities of death, I will deny
realities of death, I will deny
Will you wake me?
Wake me when I'm dead
And when I grow cold you cotta put a spell on me,
before I grow cold
Just one injection and maybe I can stay on your side
if the shot works
I don't want to miss your face
the warmth of summer
springtime's grace
realities of death, I will deny
realities of death, I will deny
Will you wake me?
In a dark and spooky graveyard,
there he's waiting in the deep
for the day when he will wake up
from his godless, deadlike sleep.
Since a while she heard these voices,
calling in her sleep at nights,
telling her she has to return
to become his mouldering wife.
Soon will come what she was told,
she cannot longer resist his call.
Oh, midnight and she's all alone
among the graves where it's so dark and cold.
Oh, she's heard his infernal voice
from the vault.
Long ago, when they were younger
they were married, lucky times.
But then clouds locked the horizons,
a martyrium for her life.
Then she's got this evil plan, she
put the poison in his tea.
And he passed away, real slowly,
noone noticed, she was free.
Soon will come what she was told,
she cannot longer resist this call.
On, midnihgt and she's all alone
among the graves where it's so dark and cold.
Oh, she's heard his infernal voice from the vault.
"The truth, give me the truth!
You've killed me and I want you to pay.
You've promised to be mine and I want you now.
I will make you follow!"
Now he took hold on her mind,
he's possesing her complete.
She's no longer self-controlled,
and he is moving her feet.
Lays her body then to rest,
covers her with his caress.
And the ground is broken up
when the new born morning comes.
Now has come what she has told,
she couldn't longer resist his call.
Oh, midnight and she's all alone
among the graves where it's so dark and cold.
Oh, she's heard his infernal voice
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
When the world's gone mad compassion dies.
Soldiers killing for their thrills,
making war just for the sake of war.
There's no future left than death.
Leave me be - misery!
Weep with the children and stave with the prisoners
before you scream for revenge.
Sorrowful women with tears in their hollow eyes -
this is no justice, this is the price of war.
The price of war
Some came running to the military,
misled by a false ideal,
believing guns could solve a problem, still
blind to see they only kill.
Ripped off from the middle,
ripped off from head to toes.
Ripped off - multikilling,
ripped off - guts and bones.
Weep with the children and starve with the prisoners
before you scream for revenge.
Sorrowful women with tears in their hollow eyes -
this is no justice, this is no justice.
You'd watch the dying, lay hands on their bleeding wounds
before you scream for war, don't you scream for.
In the darkness left alone
Walls surround that hellish hole
deadly deep and no way out
from above I hear a swinging
metal blade clinging
In the pit and the pendulum
the pit and the pendulum
comin' near and nearer
In the inquisition's claw
sentence of death is their law
though unholy and sadistic
it's a question of their honour,
of gods to die for
With the pit and the pendulum
the pit and the pendulum
swingin' above my throat
The pit and the pendulum
could it be the soldiers ‘re coming?
The pit and the pendulum
Is it right or is it wrong
what Darwin said ‘bout evolution?
But why the advance in the apeman's brain
amongst the multitude of creatures in life's veins?
Now they found a fossil and they can't explain where it belongs
whoever was this stone remains -
his blood is flowing in my veins
The missing link
the thing that made us think
where we are from
and where our mind belongs
the missing link
from ages when the birth of man began
Now so what if it's as
the prophets said in olden days
an unknown father from the stars
brought words and wisdom to us all
Now the stones have given free a bridge to our unknown past
whoever was this stone remains -
his blood is flowing in my veins
The missing link
the thing that made us think
came far from space
was from an elder race
the missing link
from ages when the birth of man began
Is it right or is it wrong
what Darwin said bout evolution?
Now the stones have given free a bridge to our unknown past
whoever was this stone remains-
his blood is flowing in my veins
The missing link
the thing that made us think
came far from space
was from an elder race
the missing link
the thing that made us think
where we are from
and where our mind belongs
the missing link's remains should make us think!
I've never believed in miracles, I rarely even cried
But you never know the day when things will change
You came to me and gave me back what I have left unpaid
And to see myself, it felt so very strange
The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes)
Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why
The mirror never lies (there's pain inside your eyes )
The mirror in your eyes
I never thought of consequences bringing life to fall
Though I want to love instead I pull you down
How can I be this way when I don't feel like this at all
And you know how much I need to be around
The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes)
Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why
The mirror never lies (there's pain inside your eyes )
The mirror in your eyes
Painful...I'm learning
In hell I am churning
I see my reflection in you
A monster returning
A heart that's still burning
I see my reflection in you
Thankful I'm learning
The candles are burning
Don't know where I'm turning
The mirror is blurring
In hell I am burning
The mirror in your eyes (the mirror in your eyes)
Is telling me what I've become alive and that is why
There's pain inside your eyes (the mirror never lies)
Oh, never, you can't hear me
Once in a while surely will come a day
When tiny symptoms grow to might pain
I built you up, you bring me down
What can I do just to make you see
That an early warning's meant to avoid the worst?
I am your friend, you live through me
I am your body, you only go me
Why don't you treat me like it's meant to be?
Oh, never, you can't hear me
Oh, though all the time you're near me
Once in a while surely will come a day
When tiny symptoms will grow to mighty pain
Oh, never, you can't hear me
Oh, though all the time you're near me
Soon in a time, then you will not refuse
You got to listen when the body talks!
Do what you like, but what it is
Please do not use me like if I was machine, I am not
I need respect and I'm worth it
If you would care for me just in a way that you care for your car
Oh, never, you can't hear me...
Give me something to keep me strong,
I don't want poison or drugs
Keep me working, then give me rest or I'll die
My mother told me lies when she
said: "You must learn for life.
The world will have a window for
you when you do the right."
But every day life proves that it
depends on different things
If born not rich and mighty then you
cannot spread your wings
You can't be absolutely free
If you don't want to stay alone
We're bound to be society
Even if you change it there's still him
and you and me
That's human bondage
Chains of the world, noone's free...
That's human bondage
Chains of the world, noone's free,
none of us are free.
Money is a license to be better than the poor
It makes the people friendly and it opens every door
And everyone's a dealer but your luck is not for free
So, if you've got the cash then I will satisfy your needs
There's so much stuff to ease your pain
When you awake it was in vain
Dreams make it easy when you're down
But all that counts is that you take
your chance and run
That's human bondage
Chains of the world, noone's free...
That's human bondage
Chains of the world, noone's free,
none of us are free.
That's human bondage
Chris and I wrote this three years ago during
a session. I'm happy that we recorded our shit
then and that we found the tape to make this
one out of it - a real killer.
People talked about this man
that he could walk on water and
that he would be a healer who could
make the blind ones see again
He never told ‘em lies,
though he took them by surprise:
"I'll offer you the truth, so you can
take my blood, believe or not
and you'll see, the word is me"
He did the only thing he knew
but what, the fuck, was he supposed to do?
People talked about this man
that he'd be the messiah and
he told them to feel love but they
just nailed him the cross instead.
He wasn't real surprised
‘cause he unmasked their lies.
"I'll offer you the truth, so you can
take my blood, believe or not
and you'll see, the word is me.
Take my blood, I'm not a god
and you'll see, it's only me."
He was the very first to prove
the world's too blind to see the truth,
he did the only thing he knew
but what, the fuck, was he supposed to do?
People wrote about this man
‘most every single word and then
they founded a church and made their law
in his name they still slay the poor
They only tell you lies,
it would take him by surprise.
"I'll offer you the truth, so you can
take my blood, believe or not
and you'll see, the word is me.
Take my blood, I'm not a god
and you'll see, it's only me."
He was the very first to prove
the world's too blind to see the truth.
He did the only thing he knew,
you know, the fuck,
My blinded eyes are staring at the burning sky
There's not a cloud to throw a shadow in my way
My dried out body's got no shelter from the sun
What's coming over me, to hell, what's coming over me?
I'm stumbling through these fields of naked stones and sand
Here's nothing growing, every life has found and end
And not a drop of water that could wet my lips
What's coming over me, to hell, what's coming over me?
I'm burning for liquid
More than words can say
I can't stay in this wasteland
I'm starving, I need your hand
Take me to the water, bring me to a shore
Take me to the water, I can't take much more
I can't explain it what has happened to my land
What once were meadows now is deadly desert sand
And all my people died, our fountains, they ran dry
What did come over us, to hell, what did come over us?
We were a race of billions, trying to rule the earth
But on this planet we have done our job the worst
It seems that our evolution made no sense
What did come over us, to hell, what did come over us?
Disasters, they warned us
We did not see the signs
I can't stay in this wasteland
I'm starving, I need your hand
Take me to the water, bring me to a shore
Take me to the water, I can't take much more
We were send to a holy land, were meant to understand
Pride got us completely wrong to believe we're endless strong
Take on life and I'll take two, sort ‘em out and kill anew
Hell is here, it's sad but true
When one thinks he's more than you
The blinded eyes are staring at the burning sky
The last man on this planet, left alone to die
The only hope is left to find what he was told
To find the river where the water of mercy flows
When I think of what our world
Is to become I get really scared
‘cause every state in east and west
Has got enough weapons to kill all of us
They're selling nuclear material
To developing countries, so that they're part of our
Modern hell, the atomic age,
The pestilence of our century
These are the symbols of our fear
Show us the end of it is near
These are the echoes of our past
But let us end this curse at last
Some people in the industries,
They're faithful statesmen, yes, indeed!
They're getting rich while they're selling death,
Now, don't you think that's too irresponsible?
In these days you've talked about
Reduction of the armament race
And this time we have all won
So go on guys and hold this line
Noone believes when they say
That they could control what they've made
Laughing in the face of death...
These are the symbols of our fear
Show us the end of it is near
These are the echoes of our past
But let us end this curse at last
These are the symbols of our fear
Show us the end of it is near
Damn you, who feed the fires of hate
For gettin' rich, soon it's too late
These are the symbols of our fear
Show us the end of it is near
These are the echoes of our past
Misty veil
Night's falling
On dirty streets
Before the storm
----------------
Who's such a fool to destroy himself?
Who still believes he could rule the world?
But after all,
they invent the ultimate war machines
declaring war on the world from space, a star war
Tell the world it's protection, nothing can go
wrong they wouldn't ever confess
what their real intention is
Before the storm, we're prepared for the fall
So many lives with no future at all
Before the storm, now they chime in the end
Death and destruction will come from their hands
Shake hands and smile in the camera's eye
But coming near there's eagerness in their eyes
They are under the command of hunger for the gold
The poisoned sting of power jabs
in their veins like a bolt
(Repeat 2nd verse)
(The secret affair) We don't know what we know
(The secret affair)
The tradition of death must go on
Tell the world it's protection, nothing can go
wrong they wouldn't ever confess what their real
Thank you, mother. Thank you for my life.
Forgive me, father. For I was running blind.
Time to prove the evolution
First to feel it, last to get.
Spiritual Awakening
Rushing through these years of madness,
Next time leave no opinions out.
Spiritual Awakening
Tell me, answer, in synchronicity.
Intuition, open doors for me.
Time to push the evolution
First to feel it, last to get.
Spiritual Awakening
Rushing through these years of madness,
Never leave no opinions out.
Spiritual Awakening
Spiritual... spiritual
I never felt this way, running blind my way
I never felt this way, spiritual awake
Thank you, brother, mirror of myself.
Since a while I thought ‘bout leaving here
I can see no way to get it clear
Under you I feel misunderstood
In this respectable neighbourhood
Hey, don't look for me no more
‘Cause I won't be coming home
I'm just a solitary man
I'm gonna leave you now alone
Well, I'm a solitary man
I feel so strange here, do you know?
I have heard they're tellin' tales ‘bout me
Find me weird and most unusually
Can't you see that I'm just doing my way?
Live it out what you all just pretend
I don't need no company
If I did I'd look for better
I'm just a solitary man
I'm gonna leave you now alone
Well, I'm a solitary man
It may seem strange to you, I know
I don't need this bullshit anymore
I'm stepping out, I'm gonna close the door
Will I ever reach the point of it
When I wear a suit that does not fit?
Music by P. Wagner, S. Efthimiadis / Lyrics by P. Wagner
Something's happened to myself, I could never give the answer
though I did my best to find it out.
If you'd ask me where I've been the last few years I could not
tell you. Pieces of dreams mix with memories about.
Something's slipped into my body while my mind has been absent
in a nameless time, somehow I know, I know, I know it well...
Like a shadow out of time it's injected in my mind,
like a shadow out of time.
Like a vision in disguise it took hold of all my ways,
like a shadow out of time.
They have told me I've reacted like I was not from this earth.
I guess this something inside me was not.
When I've go these visions that I look down at myself I get
scared. This is not my body, but it's ... what ?
I have slipped in someone's shape while his mind has been absent
in my nameless time, somehow he knows, he knows, I know it well...
Somehow I have lost my memories when I returned from this journey,
you would not believe me anyway. (Shadow out of time)
For the rest of my life I will look for a release from this pain
Music and Lyrics by P. Wagner
Spirits coming from the mind,
waking up my deepest horrors,
capture my thoughts, make me blind.
Weird, ‘cause I don't want to see
the abyss of my possibilities.
Scared I can't look away.
It has come to my side.
Sister demon - my bride.
I want you, I need you
and I have set you free.
You're always right behind me,
I know the devil's sent you to me.
You want me, you need me,
now that I've set you free.
Look always right behind you,
You know the devil's sent me to you.
What has started as a longing
almost is possession now,
it drives me again and again.
Put a light into your window,
maybe I can find a hold.
I run against myself ‘till I find the end.
Oh no! Somebody said they're marching out tonight
Fists high, their eyes straight on, the goal far out of sight
Screaming leaders, tell you what to say
They're all tools of the rulers behind 'em
They're scared to death!
They talk 'bout power and 'bout glory to gain
To be an hero 'n' get an order's the main thing
March into battle, you'll see what is real
Hell's coming nearer and death's on your heels
Chorus:
They're scared - scared to death
The agony is brutal - scared to death
Ha, ha, ha they stand face to face with a gun
What will be harder, the bullet - the man?
Satan's calling - you must pay the price
You had the choice you believed in their lies
Chorus
"Aaaaaah - where are those creeps who ordered
war?"
They sit at home and earn still more war is business,
so die?
"No..."
Oh no! Somebody said they're marching out
tonight
Fists high, their eyes straight on, the goal far out
of sight
March into battle, you'll see what is real
Hell's coming nearer and death's on your heels
And did they teach you love?
Yes, they did but poor and hidden.
And did they teach you death?
Yes, they did but just a part of it.
What does that mean, a part of it?
It means that they taught us how to kill
They taught it and they practised it
They never told us how to die
Death's place in life and how to face it,
See how sad they end their lives...
And if I ask these questions
What would you say if the answer's given the same time?
And if you know these questions
Why can't you see that it's more than just a state of mind?
And did they teach to hate?
Yes, they taught it and they stirred it
On the so-called enemy
Not on the own misery.
What did they do with their own lives?
They only did what you'd expect
After the lessons they had had,
They've never seen the other way
The might freedom in their minds
They will never reach their size.
And if I ask these questions
What would you say if the answer's given the same time?
And if you know these questions
Why can't you see that it's more than just a state of mind?
In a way we're data banks
Informations collectors
And all worse that we contend
Is a false program inside
We just need to get it right
Check it out what you have learned.
And you will learn to love
You will even learn to die
And you will learn ‘bout hate
In a way that is meant.
So sad the story ends, my friend
This way it really wasn't meant
And there has been a choice
You kicked it all into the mud
Denied the years that we both had
Against the inner voice
I guess some people never learn
They drive the story to a point of no return
You wanted more than your concern
You drive the story to a point of no return
You drive the story to a point where there is no return
I've turned away, may life decide
How things are changing overnight
You can't come back...too late
And now may come whatever will
I know that I have paid my bill
And justice will be made
I guess some people never learn
They drive the story to a point of no return
You wanted more than your concern
You drive the story to a point of no return
You drive the story to a point where there is no return
Greedy constructions, misplaced interactions
Remember the words that were written
And the devil sends the beast with wrath
They will abuse the betrayer
Reduce him the same
He who gave a false witness
Will be given so ten times more
Cursed by his own curse
Perception will come far too late
And justice will be made
I guess some people never learn
They drive the story to a point of no return
You wanted more than your concern
You drive the story to a point of no return
The night is scary
It's telling me the things I should not do
You're near me
I think I better stop
Tonight I'm weary
I'm telling you I think it's nothing new
Oh,dear me
And maybe I should better get away
`Cause tonight the horror takes us all
If you paint the devil on the wall
It is here, it's waiting for your call
Don't you paint the devil on the wall
The mind has power
Don't focus it on that what causes fear
It's coming
what you think will appear
We're blind but knowing
It's sleeping in the back of our heads
Don't show it
'Cause maybe it will answer and we're dead
Then tonight the horror takes us all
If you paint the devil on the wall
It is here, it's waiting for your call
Don't you paint the devil on the wall
In here, out there
This is our evil spirit
It lies, in wait
Don't bring this vision in our lifes
`Cause tonight the horror takes us all
If you paint the devil on the wall
It is here, it's waiting for your call
Good or bad, which side are you on
Make your choice
I hope you sleep well
Why can't you see
It's only a few that make profit here
Lose your voice while they sell you fear
One day too late
You're racing with the devil
My choice, your choice
We stand... our backs against the wall
Rich or poor, will you sell your soul
Make this choice or nothing at all
No one will feed you
You or me, we go where the money goes
Friend or foe, no one's getting close
Money - godlike, religion and restrictions
Madness, no more
Remember right, create the world
One more time again it's built on sand
And one more time again ignore it
One more time again it slips through our hands
One more time again the rim of hell, you see it well
Deaf, dumb and blind, you're not concerned
One day too late
We ride the wings of death
My choice, your choice
We stand...our backs against the wall
One more time again it's built on sand
And one more time again ignore it
One more time again it slips through our hands
During the sessions for "Missing Link" we wrote
an instrumental song on this somber theme.
It's finished now. The words were written at the
beginning of the Yugoslavian war.
Oh Lord Jesus, come down from your cross
see what's going on, see what's going on.
And meanwhile your land is getting lost,
take your brother home, he is dead and gone.
The house is burning, man stopped turning
compromising, paralysing, what a drag
He had held his hand wide open
but his neighbor left it out
long forgotten wounds break open
I can't help you watching out
I have seen no sign of life
Hey, you soldier, spare your sister's life
don't turn out the light, don't you be afraid.
Don't leave this land mine here in our street
this is not a job, killing people's not a job.
Man is burning, world stopped turning
terrorizing, compromising not at all.
He had held his hand wide open
but his neighbour left it out
long forgotten wounds break open
I can't help you watching out
Her mother told her everyday: "Never lose control
Whatever then may come your way, a good girl takes it all."
And all the years she held her peace and followed every rule
but then depression dried her heart
and now she's screaming out
Nevermore - never we'll forget
Nevermore - one day you'll regret
He used to be a follower
and did what he was told
whatever they squeezed out of him
a good man bears it all.
But one day he was in their way
did not fit in their plan
they tried to kick him from the boat
and now he's screaming out
Nevermore - never we'll forget
Nevermore - one day you'll regret
Never we'll forget, no!
Knight of virtue
Men of war
Ideals of your time
Sense of duty
You've done what they expect you to do
Missiles'll save us
In Video games they do
Mental decay
I will laugh when you must cry
Mental decay
Why should I know the reason why
Mental decay
To Hell with any intellect
Mental decay (Mental decay)
What to do with all this time?
There's a hole in my life
Go out hunting
The pleasure to kill
Don't like strangers
Without beer I've got no fun
(Repeat 2nd verse)
Apathy in friendship, stupidity at work
Keep faith in tradition, the orders from above
Your fancy dies on T.V.,
your conscience on the way
You'll be vegetating right up to your final day
(Repeat 1st verse)
Hunger for life,
Joy of risk
Future perspectives died
Take a look at those decrepit pensioners
They fuss around to make believe they're alive
They hate everyone just
because they're all so young
The lividness in their faces
I feel sick, I'm so nervous I can't sleep,
Life is getting more busy each day
And my doctor is giving me more pills
Some get me up, some calm me down, yeah
Modern chemistry, big into business
Is the keeper of our neuroses
And we don't listen to our body
By the time it gets the overdose
Oh, there's such a simple healing
‘Cause we've got a power inside that make us real tough
The right medicine for us is going back to our roots
We better look for sanity inside
The right medicine for you and me is really free
It's coming with the wind for those who ask for more
There's and Indian chief who discovered
What his ancestors already knew
And he's shown us the path of the power
In his vision there's a reborn truth
Oh, there's such a simple healing
‘Cause we've got a power inside that can make us real tough
The right medicine for us is going back to our roots
We better look for sanity inside
The right medicine for you and me is really free
It's coming with the wind for those who ask for more
Don't wait for help, you won't get what you need
Wake up your spirits and let them run free
Courage to kick all your sorrows away
The universe in you, it's your energy
If it's the last thing I would do
I will apologize to you
The only thing I ever wanted was you
I know this is the only bigger truth
Don't you dare what's to do?
When love and fear unite
Now all this happens to you
When Love and fear unite, they unite
I never meant this thing to you
If you could only see what's true
It's like a pattern in my mind
It makes me rageous, makes me blind
The only thing you wanted me to do
Was not to see the past, was to see you
Don't you dare...
If it's the last thing I would do
I want to start and try anew
The only thing I ever wanted is you
And if it all comes down this is the truth
Don't you dare...
You're talkin' ‘bout your profits
the one percent to grow
to show the world we're "someone"
as if they do not know
And all that you have gathered what does it mean for you?
A shit, ‘cause you destroy it
your policy's not true
for the lost side of the world
Especially the countries that've got only sand and stones
they got the most to feed
but that's not possible at all
on the lost side of the world
When night is gone
a thousand of the poor have died.
Goodbye to the world.
We cannot help them all,
but must we have a pope who damns the pill
for the lost side of the world
We're much too many people
it's becoming more each day
We got to change our habits
‘ause the world's collapse won't wait
When night is gone
a thousand of the poor had died.
Hands on the wheel, grid lock and steel
Dogs are barkin' out in the street
It's a neighborhood war, better lock that door
Flesh and blood and cold concrete
Baby, can't make it
Baby, can't make it
Standing in line at the tabloid shrine
In the middle of the public night
Addict consumers, consumin' the rumors
With a killer, killer appetite
Livin' on plastic, baby
Livin' on plastic now
Rage
Rage
Rage
Rage
Amphetamine vapor on glass and in paper
Underneath fluorescent light
In a catacombs of Styrofoam
Out of mind and out of sight
Baby, can't make it, no
Baby, can't make it
Rage
Rage
Rage
Rage
Where is the heartbeat, not up elite street
Beatin' down the little guy
The madness mounts, the judge lost count
Lost inside a technical lie
Rage
Rage
Rage
Rage
Rage
I've been pushed out, but I'm back up on my feet,
I've been turned down by every girl I meet
I've done my sentence, I'm the one going insane
Learn to live my life ________
I know, child, how to play the game
Rage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My life's in total hell, I can't take it no more
People walking over me, turn to me at the store
I'd_______baby, don't you ______
I want to live my life,______ my destiny
I know love, it is all a gameRage!!! Rage, rage, rage!!!!!!!
I'm planting my dynamite outside of city hall
Remembering the time I spent locked inside four walls
Hand down the ____, the countdown begins
Am I gonna burn in hell for all my lifelong sins?
I know love, it is all a game
Rage!!!!!!!!! Rage, Rage, rage!!!!!!!!!
Rage!!!, Rage, rage, rage!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that we're wasted
Talking disconnected
I see that wildness in your eyes
Proud and hollow
Like there's no tomorrow
You know you scare me sometimes
Is it fear or courage
That makes a man
Live so close to the edge
He finds no comfort in the other
Nothing in this world is
Any use to you
Except these songs you sing
Into my drunken head
Above this barroom sorrow
And I know you won't remember
A word of this tomorrow
When will you rage again
Or is it enough
Just getting out of your head
Night after night
Or are you running scared
Or you just don't care
Or are you waiting for
That one high and holy sign
To shine a light on you
And pull you through
To the silent true
You say you're gonna put your
Old band back together again
Just got to find a drummer
Who understands
We sit in the corner
People stop to say hi
You say fuck off and die
And I feel like the lucky one
Six pints into this night
And you're just starting
To hit your stride
As you heap abuse
On every passerby
They're all posers or freaks
You say that you and I are
The only two in this bar
That know what it takes
When will you rage again
Or is it enough
Just getting out of your head
Night after night
Or are you running scared
Or you just don't care
Or are you waiting for
That one high and holy sign
To shine a light on you
Pull you through
To the silent true
Shine a light on you
And pull you through
To that one high and holy sign
When the fire in your belly ain't been shrinking
And there's nothing laying around that you could be drinking
Take no mind as that stranger tries to pass you
Is he blind? Or couldn't he clearly see the train?
Couldn't he feel the bloody stain?
Not that I'm one to complain but why do we chaw upon the pain?
It's just the rage
Just the rage
Just rage
Rage
Close my eyes, pull me in and take my tongue
Taste the lies that dance around us and we're among
Break your heart, run out now and tear it up
Then you can start to give that inner brat a hug
Till the dick head pulls the rug, take the fall from high above
No details to what you love
It's just the rage
Just the rage
Just rage
Rage
Calls a masterpiece, "Come and paint me, here I am"
And it's my disease that I am raging all the time
Fought for reason, fought for rhyme, then I'm walking up the line
The voice it calls I must abide
Bound for glory on the other side
It's just the rage
Just rage
Just rage
Rage
Just rage
Just rage
Just rage
Just rage
Just rage
Rage
Rage
Look at me, look at you, nothing to say
Everything I'm own, you've taken away
All I ever wanted was to get by
Now you wanna know the reason why
Don't believe in fate, I believe in bad luck
All the stories told art so trumped up
Wanna know why i'm so fucked up
Now you wanna know the reason why RAGE...
RAGE Every waking moment has this strain on me
Can't unlock these secrets if I have no key
When I go blow it up you'll know it's my time
Now you wanna know the reason why
My bad luck
Su trumped up
So fucked up
Now you wanna know the reason why?
He?s lived in the land of lies
he?s lived in the land of the hipocresy
raging soul, with his faith injured
now his impatient and rabid
waiting to give the evil a form
let his fury penetrates
while you?re feeling absolute shame.
He feeds on their hate
rapes bodies, rapes souls
voracious beast,
broken passions, broken creeds
he is the offender of your awaken dreams
a nightmare raping your sleep
blind laments unheared
black feelings, brain colapse.
Anger in my face
anger and hate
devouring rage.
too much anger in my face
anger and hate
devouring rage.
Anger under skin
body secreting blood infected
he attacks their corpses
no feelings, no remorse
dare touch him and you?ll know his extreme
revenge behind the offense
compulsing sins, evil
Words and music by John Kay, Rocket Ritchotte and Michael Wilk
Runnin' wild, trouble round the corner
The story of your life
You got your bruises livin' in the battle zone
And now you're flyin' blind
Searching for a savior, to help you survive
But empty promises are cold comport
When all your creams are gone
You slowly get the feelin' life's been dealin'
From the bottom of the deck
Your blood is boiling over, fuse is getting short
Here comes trouble on the double, as you explode into a
Rage and rant against the world again
Ain't nobody listening to you
Scream and shout into the wind in vain
Standin' alone, holdin' back your burden
You're slowly turnin' numb
Where are the friends, that you always knew were good as gold
You're on your own, tryin' to stop the hurtin'
Still the worst is yet to come
You swallow hard and you cling to what the dawn may hold
But the light you've been watching at the end of the tunnel
Turns out to be a hoax
It was a freight train comin' at you, to knock you down again
Just for a joke, so you explode into a
Rage and rant against the world again
Ain't nobody listening to you
Scream and shout into the wind in vain
Oh you're not alone, for I've been down that road before
And I understand it you cant take this war no more
Always wishin' hopin' waitin' prayin' for a night to end
I know just what it's like, so let me be your long lost friend
And like crusaders we will
Rage and rant against the world insane
We'll make somebody listen to us
Scream and shout into the wind in again
Like demons on a rampage we will
Rage and rant against the world insane
Does anybody still care out there
Scream and shout into the wind again
Say-hail the leader with the mask
Let's say we put him to the test
Somehow he doesn't like the sound
He'll dig his heels into the ground
To think that he's the seventh wonder
Moving mountains with the thunder
All the lies he tries to cover
Money talks, where is the love
And the land that falls beneath him
To apologize beneath him
Watch a crowd of many tease him
Run in circles to appease him
It's a rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! Rage!
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! A little freedom for us all
Too many guns, too many tax
Too many mobs persue the waks
Too many cops push you around
The lunatic has come un-wound
I think his tie is a little too tight
We gotta teach the man his wrong from his right
Ya gotta-ya gotta- ya gotta
It's the rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! Rage!
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage!...and the lunatic has come unwound
A little freedom erases the hate of us all
It's a rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! Rage!
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! Rage!
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage! Rage!
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage of disorder
Rage, rage, rage, rage, rage, rage, rage
Guns, guns, guns are spreading disease
Sex is survival, survival to me
The man with the mask made a fool out of me
He's lying to you
Yea, he's lying
He's crying
(Chorus)
The rule of Allah is God's equality
Desire for my brothers the same as I desire for me
But when my brothers stay physically and mentally trapped in a cage
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
The rule of Allah is God's equality
Desire for my brothers the same as I desire for me
But when my brothers stay dying of everything else but old age
My heart fills up with what? Rage!(x3)
Against the machine that come in between
Me and my other mothers siblings
That's caught up in the green and things
That you can get beyond food, comfy clothes, and a home
And so the streets they roam without a civilized dome
To realize that the traps is set
Hounds is loose, pigs is juiced
To put another neck in a noose
Without a second to lose
So powers abused and brothers are bruised
The devil's amused as squad cars cruise through
Ghetto's, where governments hold
Everything that you own to a level where your poverty prone
So half of us will sell whatever it takes to make papes
While the other half are customers with hopes to escape
As they hallucinate sealing our fate
Despite the fact that your legacy's great
They'd rather sit home and wait
While the means to survive and thrive are shut down
So those that know wrong but can't afford right
Say what now
Chorus
Against my babies fake educators
The lieutenants to the legislators that hate us
Consistently fade since our traders betrayed us
With the sadist plot to decimate and degrade us
Before we old enough to be first graders
Putting pins in my babies heads
He could have grown to be physically thoroughbred
But mentally dead
They hide the lies in the books that were meant to be read
In the schools that either ignore em or can't afford em
Now the bigger they come the harder they fall
But the younger they fall the harder it gets to stand tall
Cause the blind mans deaf son
Will be the dumb father of a blind child
Saying to hell with them all
With no family ties
So the next man's family cries
At the funeral cause somebody tries
The wrong brother with the wrong nine doing the long time
Where he learns that he committed the wrong crime in the first place
(Bust this)
He need to point the same gun
At the criminally insane justice
System that dissed him and kissed him goodbye
From the start
Cause his world view was based on a lie
The rule of Allah is God's equality
Desire for my brothers the same as I desire for me
But when a fight breaks out
Everytime there's some hip hop on stage
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
The rule of Allah is God's equality
Desire for my brothers the same as I desire for me
But when you talk trash like you hard
But your heart pumps lemonade
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
When it's war time and you don't know where to throw the grenade
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
When my babies said role models fall victim on the front page
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
When my brothers stay physically and mentally trapped in a cage
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
When my brothers stay dying of everything else but old age
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
My heart fills up with what? Rage!
Let me loose
Set me free
I've been burning
Endlessly
There's no way back
Where I come from
Misery
Bottled up
Shaken out
No eyes of shadow
On the ground
Time's run out
Luck's run dry
We're living in a rage of fire
Drowing by the winds of change
No one has the right to come and take my rage
Dancing on the edge of darkness
Blinded by the face of hell
I got to know this rage
Oh so well
There's a world I can't forget
And this life won't let me live
I look to you, aim away
It appears to me
We're living in a rage of fire
Drowing by the winds of change
No one has the right to come and take my rage
Dancing on the edge of darkness
Blinded by the face of hell
I got to know this rage
There's so much I got to lay down
This rage shakes these roots from the ground
I've got to bury it now
We're living in a rage of fire
Drowing by the winds of change
No one has the right to come and take my rage
Dancing on the edge of darkness
Blinded by the face of hell
I got to know this rage
We're living in a rage of fire
Drowing by the winds of change
No one has the right to come and take my rage
Dancing on the edge of darkness
Blinded by the face of hell
I got to know this rage
Oh so well
Oh so well
Let me loose
Set me free
No no no
Rage...
Rage...
WORLD'S GOT ME DOWN!
(Living in the rage of fire...fire...
All my life, told what to do
Play their game, obey their rules
Go to school, make some friends
Raise a family, it never ends
Lose my dreams, swallow the pain
Shut my mouth and don't complain
Play the game until I die
And never stop to wonder why
Gotta keep my mouth shut
All my life
Never show my feelings
All my life
Never do what I want
All my life
Live my life for others
All my life
All my life
Everyone looks dead and half asleep
Call up all your friends and follow me
There’s a couple parties going on right up the street
If you want to sit here on your ass, that’s fine
But as for me, im gone!
If you see me, and were hangin on the west coast
Lets rage, rage, rage
Touring all over the east side
Lets rage, rage, rage
No matter where we’re at tonight, we’re gonna do it right
Hometown Atlanta represent it in the true light
Grab a cigarillo and a 40 and a bic light
Lemme get a Newport, now its on!
I always seem to find myself in situations like this
Like this situation I’m sensational all the fucking time
Always subject of critic acclaim
Talk shit, it makes my day
So if you’re reading this-
We don’t care, what all the critics said
We’re just fine, success is right ahead
Don’t doubt me, I’ve got a lot on my mind
Got a lot, and im already gone
Take me home
Take this from me
I had a feeling you’d be here
Always, right in the back of my head
I wish I had a dollar for every lie from you
I’d have more than I even knew
Everyone looks dead and half asleep
Call up all your friends and follow me
There’s a couple parties going on right up the street
Put your middle fingers in the air
And make your way to the front if you just don’t care
Yell if you just don’t give a – FUCK
Always blazed and I don’t give a- FUCK yeah!
Anytime, anywhere, hey girl are you down to ...
Lets take one for the police
And the red against black is the fulfillment of a
contract carried on the bony back of the keeper of a
stony plaque engraved with names of the faceless and the
maimed by our "sleeper of the age," our "creeper of the
page," the reaper of our stolen rage in all his foul
glory puffed up with the fear and dignity stripped of all
those left in crumbled agony decaying in the stinking
heat, evaporating meat. The folded satin on your "Sunday
best" shimmers like a glaze on this bright and holy day
as you lick the lifeless gaze within this vast and
splendid maze where loneliness is churning with maggots
Got a feeling inside that you wanna let out
Gonna scream, gonna shout
Face is grimaced like a clenched fist
Got lots of aggression I can't resist
Anger frustration
Locked in a cage
Gotta bust loose
I'm on a rage
Anger frustration
Locked in a cage
Gotta bust loose
I'm on a rage
Hit the floor, go completely nuts
Cant take no more, I'm gonna bust
It don't matter what you say
Cause you cant stop me, gonna rage
Anger frustration
Locked in a cage
Gotta bust loose
I'm gonna a rage
Anger frustration
Locked in a cage
Gotta bust loose
I'm gonna a rage
Rage, rage, rage
Gonna rage
Rage, rage, rage
Gonna rage
Rage
Gonna rage
Rage
I'm going to rage
Rage, rage, rage
Gonna rage
Rage, rage, rage
Gonna rage
Rage
you always told me you wanted something more
i couldn't give you what you were looking for
is that a reason to stab me in the back?
now tell me baby what you think about that
is it revenge? is it a sin?
is that the way you treat your motherfuckin' friend?
i'm just saying, i do no wrong
i just like felt like writing this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
you say you're sorry, you say that you still care
deep down you're mad, you think i did my share
it's so unfair to put the blame on me
you made a mistake, now shorty can't you see?
are you just selfish? or do you wanna be free?
you have your ways and i can't tell you how to be
you have your morals and you know what's right from wrong
i just hope you hear the lyrics to this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
is it you? is it me?
is it worth the agony?
what do i do when i wake up?
how do i face reality?
another land, another friend
tell me when this is gonna end?
i can't go through another day,
thinking that we could fade away
you always told me you wanted something more
i couldn't give you what you were looking for
is that a reason to stab me in the back?
now tell me baby what you think about that
is it revenge? is it a sin?
is that the way you treat your motherfuckin' friend?
i'm just saying, i do no wrong
i just like felt like writing this song
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
i don't know how else to behave
RAGE!
you got me in a state of rage
i've been acting kind of strange
Rage!
Why can't I hold myself calm enough to think
The ___ is spewing in my intoxicated veins
Slaughtering the ___ till there's no life left to drink
[Grouch:]
Every man's blood boils
When turmoil or life foils his plans
I've soiled my hands puttin' work in
Tryna keep from hurtin', cuz fools be irkin' the fuck outta me
Now what do I gotta be, the epitome of nice?
Biterally precise when I talk
And assuming when I walk I never let the chip show
Cuz people try and push it and they wanna test my wits
So, I'm defensive, intense with my brain waves
And that's offensive, I sense so the pain stays close
Most don't depressurize
When I've had it up to where you can see it in my eyes
Realize there's no sanity
Hella profanity and a sort fuse to light
I snort and use the mic like a weapon
Effectin' any section I step in
Got ‘em checkin' for the vibe that I'm protectin'
[Asop:]
Who takes the time to look around?
That which surrounds makes the sound of compromise
Damn, they try to size up to such plateau's they'll never touch
Always talkin' about nothin', when you catch ‘em, they always hush
Not much to be said, not enough to be heard when the words become absurd
When a voice of a gangsta starts to emanate from the ‘burbs
Now anybody, everybody can try to rock a party
With that bump in your trunk, always drunk with your motions
With no devotion, collects an ocean of funds
In the worst way, idiots they stay this way
Me hella ‘noid like a homophobic stuck in the middle of a gay parade
With no way to escape the confines of one's mind
A mental prison, a prism of thought
A crystalis of anger created by the action of strangers
A dangerous way to live your life the these days
Thinkin' he hella fresh though
A male emcee acting like a lesbo
Making one's life so stressful
That's why I escape with these with the ease of a hiatus in Fresno
[PSC:]
A rusty nail in the foot
A cavity in the tooth
My threshold, the pressure build up, to me I'm aloof
And no proof of a cracking point
Mood swings like primates
Gorilla in the mist type range, I see all states
I King Kong shit, rip down the house structure
Like Empire State, the power will surely crush you
As a pun on a radio edit, or nasty soda
I'm colder in the heart when the camel back breaks
No one seen the true beast, release him and danger follows
Like sequels to horror flicks, there's no tomorrow
No sun will come out, no Annie, no Daddy Warbucks
The Hard Knock Life begins when tempers flare up
An enemy will show no mercy, take it from Percy
And stop at No Limit until the bullshit's ended
[Eligh:]
Rage, trapped in a cage
Wrapped in a page, you never change
Severed off from the vain
Not enough blood to complain
Rage enters the brain
Now it's a pain you can't maintain
Leaving friendships slain, always the other one to blame
Never to be the same, rage is just a game played
To someone less it runs deep on an unseen plain
Peep the problems of the average man when he's insane
Losing personality replaced by the devil's frame
Madness, uncanny love for the fact his life is lived in sadness
Can't handle the Silence so The Lambs get reprimanded
For the underhanded, underkept raging thunderclap
You're wondering "What's that?"
It's the wrath of rage-aholics, ah...
[BFAP:]
People playing games with my mind
Playing games every time that I find
Confined to a world, disillusion mind
I'm losing my patience, losing time
Wasting my patience, you wasting time
Not facing who you are
Enraged in cages, enslaved in graves
We lay, relay, we play
Beating on drums till the warrior battle comes
Native son chasing the moon in smoke filled rooms
Chasing hell to it's doom, boom
Like losing a check on payday
Holding a grip, it's stressful
It's not your fault, it never is
Whatever, I watch the fake, clever moves you make
Earthquake, alcohol makes a fire go crazy
You are the reason I exist
Won't stop until I get revenge
I will ensure you don't persist
Cannot forgive, cannot forget
RAGE!
Mother fucker, think you're bad?
I'll take that smile right off your face
How many more have you deceived
The damage done can't be erased
RAGE!
You thought you'd seen the last of me
When the backstabbing was done
I bet you think you're funny now
Lying face down in your own blood
(M. Spohn, R. Peinelt, A. Torkler)
(from the album "InFormation", 1995)
every day another nightmare of someone touching me
a feeling that I miss so much here in reality
I can't stand this way of living, I feel the hurting once again
I've rolled the dice too many times and laughing causes pain
every dog gets more love than I ever have received
and people always give me only precocious advice
can't call this situation much more than just a shame
I don't know at all how is the one for this to blame
I give up and leave the show, I stop and quit the game
and I will not return until the rules are changed
the book of love is over, I finished the last page

Rage is in your heart,
rage - you fall apart.
What have you done?
Is there a hope lost in your soul?
Your final peace -
betraying us for price so cheap - your price is cheap.
I wanna breath for me, I live too carefully.
What have you done? You have become my enemy.
What have we done? We face beginning of the end.
What have we done? This is the end for you and me.
I'm talking 2 myself again whispers little noises
even when I'm stoned I'm hearing voices
arguing decisions with these petty little bitches
who won't leave me alone
itching in my throat 2 speak these things I think I
shouldn't say
U shouldn't stay just let me go I told U so jus get
away
now U know I'm not OK I'm not OK I'm not OK
I've sniffed smoked copped coke
spent my life in a cloud of smoke coughed choked
overdosed
woke up in a hospital and I thought it was destiny
2 die with a needle next 2 me
be like mommy U can't calm me I've made a fuckin mess
of me
I'm so depressed I'm burning I'm obsessed with me
jus turnin in my sleep its hurting as I bleed I think I
cut too deep
I wanna sedate I'm bottlin hate and I'm filled up with
rage
I've fallen from grace somebody take me away cuz
I'm filled up with rage
No more ether spoons or glass half moons
huffing glue in crowded rooms I'm so consumed
with my psychiatrist who sparks psychotic fits
with pills and pills and pillsa shit
Substances 4 illnesses hurry quick go get my kit
I need a muthafuckin fix
Here I go anotha bend anotha binge with my syringe
where I've been I've no idea what's tangled in my dirty
hair
strip me down 2 vacant stare little girl alone and
scared
knowing that I need U there but U don't care
I hate U like I hate myself I will erase U as U cradle
me in filth
Holy Spirit Holy Ghost noose is tied up 2 the post
pulsing blood is rushing Lord I'm coming karma comatose
I wanna sedate I'm bottlin hate and I'm filled up with
rage
I've fallen from grace somebody take me away cuz
I'm filled up with rage
I feel like dying I feel like dying I feel like dying
I feel like dying dying I feel like dying fuckin dying
I feel like dying dying dying dying dying
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die Die Die Die Die Die
(lyrics: Kay Hartung; music: Sascha Klamp & Kay Hartung)
Can you feel, feel the pain?
When I come, come again.
Broken bones in the ground.
Hear the deep painful sound.
Fire, fire in my eyes.
Go away friendly guy.
My own rage, not control.
Feel the pain in my soul.
My heart is twin around
With barbed wire of rage.
My body explodes of life,
But my soul runs straight to hell.
Mama please, please help me.
My own rage devours me.
I drown into the swamp,
And the swamp it comes from hell.
But I fight, fight myself.
With the love and the strength.
Coming down, down from God.
In my deep lovely heart.
My heart is twin around.
With barbed wire of rage.
My body explodes of life,
Rage.
Today I wake up knowing what I have to do.
I will release all this fire in my soul.
And in my knuckles I feel this sense of burn.
Should I avoid this anger in my heart? No!
Taking a look in the mirror, I can see the wild.
Raising fire, burning napalm bleeding eyes.
If you know me you should know I’m not OK.
Listen to me before I blow your mind away.
Get out the way if you don’t to feel all my rage.
Just don’t hesitate if you dream to live another day.
Below this full moon I’m a raging wolf.
There is no fear. No empathy. No pain.
Justice by my hand today I will claim.
Think it twice and you will see that in my way
