(Killing Joke)
You're alone in the pack
You're feeling like you want to go home
You're feeling unfinished but you keep on going
The reason is there
You'll be falling 'til your feet are gone
Because your living a hoax
Sell us what you suss
Draw your brain, a sick inspiration
Your pill illusion
And then you follow a transfer
If you don't know the game
Then you're still part of it
Because out on the streets
It's strange
Dodge the bullet or carry the gun
The choice is yours
Yeah! Yeah!
Look at the controller
A nazi with a social degree
A middle-class hero
Rapist with your eyes on me
You pay some masturbation
A priest cheers for the nuns you fuck
You'd wipe out spastics if you had the chance
But Jesus, Jesus
Jesus wouldn't like it, no
I'm looking for you in the woods tonight,
I'm looking
Looking for you in my flashlight, I'm searching
From in the high or down the ocean
And I face myself in reason
Gain the wolf
Gain the wolf
Conjure me as a child
Slipping down a webside
Stretch up I cannot reach him
Jumping up they drag him from the water
I watch them march him into life
I watch them take him from the pale
Into the sky for your eagle eye
The sun seeds a sickle and a scythe
Ridicule they won't allow
Quench abuse and let love flower
Rip the cage out of your chest
Let the chaos rule the rest
Show without showing
What you know without knowing
Twigs snap eye / I catch no canoe only you and me
Alone on the ol' teal sea
Dissolving who we are
Call out for yesterdays destiny come
We're on a foreign shore
It was your mark of falling
I was the car still running
And when you call i'll be your shield for life
And if you feel it you will fly
The sun should have been with me
When I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
As I was set to fall in
Rise
Toward the surface
Through the eye of the storm
You'll find the way
The way through the labyrinth
Sweet Leviathan
Across oceans of time
You'll find the way
Stride
The path of angels
Watch the shadows dance
Along your way
Behind your back
Decomposition
For each step you take
For each question why
Burned right before your empty eyes
Scattered around the charred bones lie
Wings are broken and feathers torned
No tears will fall for those forlorn
Pale ghosts are rising
From their shallow graves
To devour the last of hopes
To make it fade away
Psyche
The ever changing tide
The banner fell in the ashes
Upon the field where the victims lie
Transformation
The way of the butterfly
As seasons change with reason
You remember it all
There's a head at the door and a face on the wall
Waiting for the sign
There's a passion you can't hide and it whispers to you
There's always a promise
In the dark of the night just before it's too late
Running out of time
But you know that the game's not over
They're telling you lies
But you won't go down on the other side
There's a guiding light
And you don't believe in gods or monsters
In the name of the few
You gotta stay on track just to find the answer
Never to be confused
By the laws of gods and monsters
Contagious science
It's the emperor's new clothes
And the human bias
For whatever it means
Now the lines are drawn and the numbers chosen
Whisper in the night
It's the cold dark chamber and you hear them sighing
Running out of time
You were the edge of seventeen
When you first came on the scene
Whips and chains still hiding in the closet
You're gonna use that dirty talk
And destroy them with your walk
Knock them out before they know it
You play your games but it's all the same
There ain't no one that can hold your reigns
You'll be going down
On the edge of seventeen
Now you're the cat who's got the cream
Living off of all those dreams
And there's nothing you would do to stop it
I can see you going down
Like you're buying up the town
Beauty pays and you show you know it
You play your games but it's all the same
My eyes
You've stolen my eyes
They were made for you
When I wouldn't give you mine
You see your face in my reflection
Across the room
You're trapped inside my skin
In the flesh within
Your shame
You're giving me your face
Disintigrated
You were number 8
How many more were vandalized
Miscreations to be denied?
A reflection in the drowning pool
Your skin is mine and the flesh within
Welcome brother, welcome within
This holy land where we begin
Reflections in the drowning pool
Welcome brother, welcome within
This holy land where we begin
Join in, melt with us
Where everyone is like the last
You've learned nothing
Disposessed
Trapped inside my skin
Never to last, but multiplied
Recreated without exchange
I've been waiting for a guide to come
and take me by the hand
Could these sensations make me feel
the pleasures of a normal man
New sensations bear the innocence -
leave them for another day
I've go the spirit, lose the feeling
take the shock away
It's getting faster, moving faster now,
it's getting out of hand
On the tenth floor, down the backstairs
into no-man's land
Lights are flashing,
cars are crashing,
getting frequent now
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, let it
out somehow
What means to you,
what means to me -
and we will meet again
I'm watching you, I watch it all
I take no pity from friends
Who is right and who can tell,
and who gives a damn right now
Until the spirit, new sensation
takes hold - then you know (3)
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling (2)
On the path that you have tread
Where others try to follow
When the ravens fly within your grasp
The images of yesterday will tell the truth again
No one can escape the pain of knowing how it ends
You rendered me defenseless
Images held out for ransom
You rendered me defenseless
When I needed your protection
All the weapons that you choose
And the fortresses you've built
Is no security inside your mind
When logic seems to fail
Keep the secrets to no avail
Oblivious behind these walls
No structure can remain forever
Forever
And the games that we have played
We knew the rules so well
Every battle that we chose
Broken by entangelements
Stand above it all
I know the situation
That you're the contact man
It's all falling through your fingers
It's time to score a better plan
Move on out tomorrow night
We ain't got time to kill
If you think you can't get caught in the act
I can guarantee you will
Look out for the white lies
They'll just get in the way
Don´t get too impatient
We can´t afford to waste another day
Waiting for all the parts to fit
Time to make the clocks stand still
If you think you can't get caught in the act
The world becomes your stage
The performance is just beginning
Who is watching
Eye of the beholder
Move towards another day
In the stillness
In the silence
One lasting impression is taking you away
Just another 15 minutes
Just another second hand
I am running faster
Just as fast as I can
Just another 15 minutes
Between the hands of time
The clock is ticking faster
When will my life unwind?
The hands of time going wrong
Taking another life
Meaning disappears
After the lights go out
Observing you
Save a photograph
Posession of what never can be
My own reality
Just another 15 minutes
Just another second hand
I am running faster
Just as fast as I can
Just another 15 minutes
The second hand unwinds
When the clock is ticking
Another life you'll find
The direction is wrong tonight
My blood screams
Just another 15 minutes
Another second hand
When the clock is ticking
Run as fast as I can
Just another 15 minutes
See the hands entwine
I am running faster
One time I saw what I wasn´t meant to see
He said, "They´re always waiting Underneath"
His fear is what keeps him alive
My mind is darker than the night
Darker than the night
When I´m in a familiar room
I am the outsider
I know you don´t understand
I am going farther
Away
My time is not the clock on the wall
I share, with the decline and fall
One sight will shape the face of rage
Inside, I am waiting inside
When I´m in a familiar room
I am the outsider
I know you don´t understand
I am going farther
The city street's like an exhibition
I held your picture in my hand
A lifetime in your eyes
Remember how you wanted me
The hidden scars you'll never see
And the sound of us breathing
This is our hiding place
Another warm embrace
When will they ever learn?
It's like a vision in the hands of fate
Religion on the monitor
A word that breaks my soul
No one left to rescue me
Just unfinished melodies
We're on the silver screen
Even the greatest stars
Are alone in the looking glass
There are promises meant to be kept
But I never expected this at all
The security we dream about
Makes us desperate and confused
And the feeling returns
Even when the night is falling
Somewhere beyond the lights
What shall become of us?
Beyond the lights
It's in our minds
Illusions can sometimes be swallowed
Protection stays within our hearts
Pay the price for wanting more
Believing in this cruel uncertainty
And the feeling returns
Even when the night is falling
Somewhere beyond the lights
All this temptation
You tried to give
When I was only looking
For a place to stay
I needed someone to share my heart
But now you tell me
You're going away
It should have been easier
To find a love
But now you've left me
Begging you to stay
You ran away
Leaving me all alone
You ran away
Now I've got no home
You ran away
Now I'm wandering
Alone on this street
I'm searching every place
Where you could be...
You ran away
How could you leave me
With no place to stay?
You ran away
Didn't you know
You've got the face and the temperament
Time for action on the World Wide Web

Unveiling The Secret
The words made flesh
And I could touch their skin
A landscape of desperation
No great army, no soldier of fortune
Could get me through that day
The action was so revealing
That the feeling will never go away
Hold on to me and I´ll give you
my pulse
I find the need so appealing
Untie the knots in my soul
Until I feel the secret unveiling
I reach up for any face
I was never good at concealing
But I have the nerve I´ve pushed before
If only to bury the fear
You wear a coat of armour
I´ll take the chance
And break through that shield
The saint became a lush
Dipping into fortune's dreams
He never understood
There are forces beyond belief
Expensive lessons to be learned
Memories are calling
He walked out on the balcony
Looked out over the den of sin
Wondered where this madness leads to
Grim purpose left no stone unturned
Absorbed too much
This is temptation
These are the years we've left behind
Your revelation
This is the cruelty of our time
I can't escape it
Take back every word I've said
There's no belonging
The voices of the dead
And when the stars are falling
Projections on the screen
Another day is dawning
Come back to me
And when the night is calling
For everyone to see
The memory's still haunting
Come back to me
This is impatience
These are the hungry mouths to feed
No complications
This is abandon of our needs
I can't erase it
Take back all the tears we've shed
Useless behaviour
I saw you, watching
Your face in the dark
In the shadows, call for a name
Sometimes the deceit, some kind of lies
Did it mean anything?
See you in my dreams
It was a twist in the night
You were alive to me
It was a hopefull sight
It wasn't said to be
And now I settle down
In a conscious state
And I know I can't
Because it's too late
Can I take it back?
Like a piece of fate
Look into my eyes, and don't you lie to me
It was only for a moment
It was only for a breath of time
Did it mean anything?
The touch of your flesh on mine
Now, I don't care where you are
No, I don't care where you are
But I know in my heart I'll try to find you
Now, I don't care where you are
It's just a kiss in the night
And now it's been a long time
Can I take it back?
Your flesh on mine
These are the ties that bind
These are the tears in my eyes
It was only a moment in time
It was only a look in your eyes
The measure of your kiss
A second of perfect bliss
These are the ties that bind
These are the tears in my eyes
Will you give it back to me?
Will you give me back my life?
I need that moment back
A storm is approaching
And another tower falls
The battles here go on forever
Can they justify the emptiness
There is a man in the picture
Mourning until the end
There is no meaning left
Nothing to defend
Will you ever find a place
A place to be alone?
When even your memory
Won't let you be at home?
It's just a photograph
Waiting for another day
Relieve me of my command
Make it go away
Memories of the disenchanted
Adrenalin sends you into darkness
This picture is screaming
It's a many splendoured thing
Something you never own
Undecided heart
Torn against your will
You keep me alive
Snow garden bearing the unthinkable
Emotions that we can't explain
I've been taking some time
Trying not to look behind
All those things in the past
They were never made for you to last
If only I could, I would help you
But I'm too busy trying to help myself
I'm searching, and I'm searching
If only we had all the time in the world
If only we knew where we were going to
I want to...
I want to try to find another way
This isn't what I dreamed or intended
Is it you
Or me alone?
I would like to help you out
But I'm too busy trying to help myself
And I'm searching
The night is unfolding
And I feel you breathing next to me
A face in the darkness
As I dance in the temple of the living dead
You started a fire
And the blood is rising in my veins
You started a fire
Isolation
Can you hear the sound of my desperate cry?
You were my sanctuary
The price I paid for a lonely heart
You were my sanctuary
The night is gonna tear us apart
The face on the street
Closing my eyes
A gentle touch
A desperate hand
Remove the blade from my soul
Steal this kiss before it's gone away
You started a fire
Isolation
From my sleep at night to when I wake
I see things that make me afraid
On the other side of the darkness
A body that doesn't feel quite like my own
I don't know what it really means
To keep my dignity
I was blind but now I see
I'm trapped by misery
Cities I don't recognize
And people that I cannot place
I followed by an angry vision
A past I know I cannot erase
I don't know what it really means to keep my dignity
I was blind but now I see
I'm trapped by misery
Don't know where I'm going
Because I can't see the end of the road
Without the truth of the story
Words are falling out of place
Tears have been shed
The years you held so quickly gone
Alive in my head
If we could only reach the sky
But we stand here now
Waiting on the edge of time
in this crowded room
The emotion fails me
A parting glance
Just a second out of view
My only chance
A face I hardly knew
When it was mine
Within the looking glass
Another time
Youth is calling back to me
Whenever I'm alone
Yesterday unraveling in a quiet song
We could even touch the sky as we did before
From the edge of time
There's a place where lovers go
To try to see through all illusion
To share our thoughts like we wanted to
I try to hold on to all i need
For you
For you
You don't have to be the lonely one
No,you don't have to be the lonely one
And i can see when i look in your eyes
That sometimes you've been so afraid
If i can say there'll be no more lies
Is there a chance that you might stay
Come on and lay with me
Come on and lie to me
Tell me you love me
Say I'm the only one
Experiences have a lasting impression
But words once spoken
Don't mean a lot now
Belief is the way
The way of the innocent
And when I say innocent
I should say naive
So lie to me
But do it with sincerity
Make me listen
Just for a minute
Make me think
There's some truth in it
Promises made for convenience
Aren't necessarily
What we need
Truth is a word
That's lost its meaning
The truth has become
Merely half-truth
So lie to me
Like they do it in the factory
Make me think
That at the end of the day
Some great reward
This is the hallway of seduction
This is the hunger never satisfied
Inexistence no protection
You are caught in the headlights
Overdosed on appetite
Ravenous at midnight
Lock the door behind you
Hypnotized
Nothing sacred here tonight
Hypnotized
Blind until the morning light
In the glaring neon twilight
Til there is no place unknown
Skin's voracious appetite
Hunger deep into the bone
Overdosed on appetite
Lock the door behind you
Beat me, bite me
Feed me, spite me
Bruised and bleeding
Attempts have failed
Impulse leads to no avail
Body weaving break the fall
I'm coming through the wall
Restless running
Close behind you
Razor eyes
Coming through the wall
Stretched across the sea of skin
Instinct flows like a virus
In my veins
Teeth come flying out of darkness
Hallway you just turned around
Shows you no door
And the leash breaks
Coming through the wall
It's coming through the wall
I'm coming through the wall
It was just another typical day
I was thinking about things in my past
Sometimes I wish I wouldn´t have done
I thought it couldn't matter anymore
But some people like to keep on digging up the dirt
Of everything that I've done before
Why should I feel guilty?
Why should I be the one?
Why should I feel guilty?
When I've only just begun
When my life has just begun
You said you wanted to hear some specifics
But I just couldn't be bothered
With all the gory details
Of times my ego had been slaughtered
I know, it was worth it
Yes it was worth it
And I enjoyed it
Yeah, I savoured every moment!
Why should I feel guilty?
Why should I be the one?
Awake in the darkness
Locked inside for another night
Silent face full of hunger
The moon looks down and sends a light
Messages you can't decode
The time has come but the words have been
Stripped away
Ruins are awaiting
It's my final destination
Now the blind are leading the blind
It's my final destination
But the spirit's still alive
Never paid to travel
Jumped the fare as long as I could
And you don't need a reason
There's somewhere to go
Whenever you would
Something that you call your own
Obsessions come and tear my soul
My soul away
Ruins are awaiting
When I lay me down to sleep
I pray for an eternity
And I listen to you breathing
This is a place where the shadows fall
No one alive has ever been or returned
When day and night become one
We stand and wait at the equinoxe
This is where all the stories end
The final sentence in your head
Pages turn and the book will be closed
The moon will rise and claim it's own
I only wanted to be alive
Never had to question it all
Now the wolves are howling
Psyche.
Psyche.
Well I can't understand.
I was your holy man
I was your fool of desire.
I was your bitter green soul... crucified
Psyche. thousand miles away. pain
Psyche. blows my mind away
