Imprisoned face to face in this strange artificial place
with free-wheeled criminals who carry knives and loaded guns
Aggravation's usual for the western world
Radio stations send their warning - red alert
[chorus:]
In the Westworld
Concrete desert
In the Westworld
Endless strife to survive
The leaders lost control, now violence and corruption rule
The fittest survive this zone, you wait untill it catches you
Violation's common in the western world
Radio stations send their warning - red alert
Imprisoned face to face in times all-out computerized
gunslingers prowl in troops this animated danger zone
Violation civilization
Savage destert, this is Westworld
Through the nation sounds the calling - red alert
Destination still unknown, maybe WW III
[chorus:]
In the Westworld
Concrete desert
In the Westworld
Drowning in mindwaves
Just below the surface of sane
A star in a movie
That plays over and over again
Where did they go
Where have you been
All of those dreams
We had when we were young
Wanted to be
Something so pure
They silenced the dreamer
Got a lot of time
And I'm here to stay
In tommorow's yesterday
And I feel alive
In this moment I'm free
The past is gone, and I'll never be.....
Selling my soul out
Spiritual prostitution you know
The vulchers are waiting
For any sign of weakness to show
Why do we hear
why do we see
Only the lies
That make us crumble
They're too afraid to go that high
And that's why they break us down
Got a lot of time
And I'm here to stay
In tommorow's yesterday
And I feel alive
In this moment I am alive
Acid mind trip on some enchanted blue star
Heavenly bodies look closer than they are
Some wasted bound to die person said
Cinematic in ghostly angelic light
You're living out of your element my boy don't you know
This acting so naive, when I'm old enough to know how
Hypersensitive, to the words draped in white
It's unbecoming to me now
There must be light at the end
There must be someone out there
Waiting for me when I cross over
Sunsets on a warm horizon
Behind the door to somewhere
I almost feel her hand on my face
There must be someone out there for me
As I fall into this I release myself from the ground
There must be someone out there
There must be light at the end
Behind the door to somewhere
Waiting for me when I cross over
Sunsets on a warm horizon
Well you know it's been awhile
I keep letting go of things and people too
Getting closer to the where
But how and when I just don't know till I get there
Lately I really miss you
Yeah I miss you all the time
But it's just my lonely mind
Feels like I should be with you
Glass and steel, places to go
Another sidewalk lies beneath me
Still I'm not moving
Of keeping up with nothing to show
The city never sleeps and I'm tired
Standing here in limbo
Waiting for anything
Be the master of my destinations
Can i really have control?
The stream of conciousness I indulge can stop me cold
It's just that when I start to fly
Lately I don't need a reason
For the manic things I do
I go off just to feel emotion
'Cause at least it's something new
Another sidewalk lies beneath me
Still I'm not moving
Glass and steel, places to go
Of playing games with people who cheat
The city never sleeps and I'm tired
It's crazy here in limbo
Everybody tells me what I'm doing wrong
But I'm looking in the mirror
They're the same as me
Not sad or happy
Wanting somewhere to run too
Well you know it's been awhile
I kepp letting go of things and people too
Lately i really miss you
Time to leave the dead behind
Shed the weight suppressing me
A dark beautiful naked life
At the edge of the sea
Towards the sky I have been drawn
But alone too scared to fly
Underneath her wings I was safe
'Til the tears ran dry
I've got a soul
That she could not seem to reach
She'll never know how I feel
Brought down the wall
To her face I couldn't speak
I'll never touch her that way again
{Chorus}:
Cold up inside my body, numb in my mind
Somebody wake me
Make me believe in love again
Now that I'm free from the Ice Queen
Her shoulder turned to let me fall
The sirens wailed as she slid away
In my head
The demons came out to enjoy the day
She's got a soul
That I just can't seem to reach
I'll never know how she feels
Up in her castle
With the Empire at her feet
She rules her world but not with me
[Japan Bonus]
I don't feel the same today
Something turned around
Everything has changed
And I am different,
Even pain has lost it's edge
Used to tie me up and hold me hostage
Out from under me
Strange how beautiful
But now I know it's game
Elastic I will be
This life has just become
It always comes to me
I'm blind and then I see
When I can let it go
It feels good to know where I belong
Been so long since i was here
Really in this place with you
Colors bursting at my eyes
Like a new born I'm infactuated
I have to touch it all
Open skies that never seem to ever end
Elastic I will be
Enter sanity
Submerged and then I'm free
When I can let it go
It always comes to me
Out from under me
Strange how beautiful
This world has just become
Elastic i will be
I'm blind and then I see
It always comes to me when
Woke up in an timeless space
A star I had become
She was watching from above
Her eyes were like the sun
I was in an orbit she controlled,
I could feel her, I couldn't touch her
Something strange was happening
As I began to rise
And I rise
And everything is love
And love is everything
In a simulated night
I feel my body sleeping
And somehow she controls my mind
But only when I'm dreaming
I am only what she thinks I am
A Perfect soldier, cyberdreamer
All the fear just falls away
As I begin to rise
And I rise
Everything is love
And love is everything
And we rise
And we rise
And everything is love
And love is everything
Take your soul from this place and go free. Free of fear and anger, hatred and pain.
I have seen what you have seen through your eyes. I have run through your fields, lived
through your life and dreamed through your dreams. We are one, we are love, we are everything.
And I rise
Everything is love and love is everything
And we rise
And we rise
And everything is love
Don't make me feel
It's better when I'm numb
Don't make me reach
I don't need anyone
Don't make me look
It's just too glorious
Don't make me try
It's too laborious
I'm not ready though I'm falling down
I don't want to be found
I can almost hear the sound
Of my ego dying
I just realized my fate
Now there's no more hiding
Looking out from where I stand
On the edge of where I'll be
When I come home
Don't let me dream
I'm not supposed to fly
Don't let me know
I might just question why
Don't give me faith
I'll find my own way
Don't tell me how
I'll get there someday
Everybody's got something to say
Wish they'd all go away
I can almost hear the sound
Of my ego dying
I just realized my fate
Now there's no more hiding
Looking out from where I stand
On the edge of where I'll be
When I come home
[solo]
I can almost hear the sound
Of my reasons dying
I just realized my fate
Now there's no more fighting
Looking out from where I stand
On the edge of where I'll be
When I come home
When I come home
When I come home
Someone tell me it aint true
Why my heart belongs to you
Well, at the end of everyday
Ah, you take my breath away
'Cause I'm flyin' high on a rocket in the sky
Sonic boom boy
Ha. Sonic boom boom boy
In the stars I see your eyes
They come to me yeah all the time
hip hop rock to me now
and it aint gonna slow down
'Cause I'm flyin' high on a rocket in the sky
Sonic boom boy
Ha. Sonic boom boom
No one would believe me
This thing could be so easy
just. Just say what's all in my mind
I'll be round some time
I'm flyin' high on a rocket in the sky
Sonic boom boy
Ha. Sonic boom boom boy
I'm flyin' high on a rocket in the sky
Oh, yeah
I'm flyin' high on a rocket in the sky
Sonic boom boy
Ha. Sonic boom a boom boy
by Black Sabbath
Oh no! Here it comes again
Can't remember when
We came so close to love before
Hold on, good things never last
Nothing's in the past
It always seems to come again
Again and again
Again and again, again oh
Cry out to legions of the brave
Time again to save us
From the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm
Sail across the sea of light
Circles and rings, dragons and kings
Weaving a charm and a spell
Blessed by the night
Holy and bright
Called by the toll of the bell
Bloody angels fast descending
Moving on a never-bending light
Phantom figures free forever
Out of shadows shining ever-bright
Neon Knight!
Neon Knights!
Alright!
Cry out to legions of the brave
Time again to save us
From the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm
Sail across the sea of light
Again and again
Again and again and again
Neon Knights!
Neon Knights!
Neon Knights!
I'm on a trip
Across the universe tonight
Are you with me?
Yeah cause I won't be
Going back there anytime
Nothing for me
I'm a shooting star
That's never burning out it's flame
And I am so alive
I'm never gonna be the same
And like a superhero
I can do anything that I want
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you
Oh better than anything before you
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you everyday
High on a psychedelic wave
And I'm not scared
Are you with me?
Yeah it's a mystical adventure
We can share
If you trust me
I am nothing but a servant
To this thing inside me
All the bad things in my life
Have fallen down behind me
There is no one in this world
Could ever knock me out like this
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you
So good that I can hardly wait
To show you
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you everyday
[solo]
I'm a shooting star
That's never burning out it's flame
And I am so alive
I'm never gonna be the same and
I'm a superhero
I can do anything that I want
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you
Oh better than anything before you
Yeah this is how good it feels
To love you (yeah)
So good that I can hardly wait
To show you (yeah)
Yeah this is how good it feels
Yeah this is how good it feels
Yeah this is how good it feels
Is it right, the way we do each other?
We're only human, you and I and the ones that we love
Talking cheap exploiting what's uncovered
If god is our witness then she'd say
Why don't you get a life?
Why don't you get a life?
Get a life
Get a life
Since I met you, been pulling knives from my back
You think you know me, but I think you're on crack
We're in this together, you and I and the ones that we love
Why don't you get a life?
If god is our witness then she'd say
Get a life
Why don't you get a life?
get a life
We're only human, you and I and the ones that we love
If god is our witness then she'd say
Why don't you get a life?
Why don't you get a life?
Get a life
Shot down in cold blood fever
Spread the news as fast as you can
Get it out to all the fine people
They wanna know
Some kid, a little bit hyper
But they don't wanna understand
Hard snap in his head one monday
Spraying bullets with his new shiny metal toy
Takes his medicine like a good boy
Come whisper loudly in my ear
Black Shadow Symphony
I'm more addicted to your fear
With every little sound bite
Front page on every paper
Soak it up like a sponge on steroids
Television special report
If it's bad, we only want to hear it more
Hey you, the one in denial
Take a hard look in the mirror
Everyone of us is part of a disease yeah
You can dream but you're never gonna sleep
Come whisper loudly in my ear
With every little sound bite
Black shadow symphony
I'm more addicted to your fear
Everybody says put the kid in a jail for life
He's an evil child
Or better yet let the sucker fry
(there's) nothing wrong with our society
Load 'em up and ship 'em off to another galaxy
Watch the sun go down
It's like a million miles
Like a million miles
Lies between us now
Like a million miles
Like a million miles
I wanted to know you, I did
I wanted to show you
This is not how it should be
This is not how it could be
This is not good enough for me
Cold enough to taste
Like a million miles
Like a million miles
God it's such a waste,
Such a waste of time my friend,
Goodbye...
I wanted to find you, I did
I wanted to feel you
This is not how it should be
This is not how it could be
This is not good enough for me
Something better's
Gonna to come of this
There's a lesson in here somewhere
Before you know it
We'll be yesterday
Can you open minds
Start revolutions,
Break new ground?
Can you change the world,
Do you believe in something profound?
Is it naive to visualize,
Utopia before our eyes?
What if we could turn the tide,
Flip the planet on its side,
Move a mountain if we tried
What if we could do
Whatever we believed,
What if we could?
Will you fight the power,
Look in the eyes
Of hate and suppression?
Will you stand-alone
For your convictions
And your obsessions?
Is it too much to ask for more,
Isn't that what we came for?
What if there was no disease,
No addictions, no enemies
What if everyone was free,
What if we could have
Whatever we believed
What if we could?
It's all a lie
The reasons why
It's do or die
This time
[Solo]
Is it naive to visualize,
Utopia before our eyes?
What if we could turn the tide,
Flip the planet on its side,
Move a mountain if we tried
What if we
Could do whatever we believed?
Oh yeah!
What if there was peace tonight,
Not a bomb within our sight,
Just a sea of candlelight
What if we could have
Whatever we believed,
Holding my own, but sometimes
I think I might break
Fragile in one breath
Still, like a dark chameleon
Then I'm strong and brave
Wearing it well
Covered with time
Though sometimes hard to find
I don't know why you make me so uneasy (so uneasy)
Blowing a storm through my world
You change the way I feel
Alter the light when you appear
When you're next to me
Can it be you're the only one who can see me? (so uneasy)
But I'll come around, just give me time
Been on my own since I was
Born don't you know
Mostly they go
So will you be here when I'm down
People have come and gone,
Or leave to chase the sun
I really do want to believe
I don't know why you make me so uneasy (so uneasy)
When you're next to me
But I'll come around, just give me time
Can it be you're the only one who can see me? (so uneasy)
Blowin a storm through my world
You change the way I feel
feed the atmosphere
Alter the light when you appear
Once he loved her
Once he could
See her as a flower
The days would rise
And set in her eyes
A sweetness he'd devour
Slowly it took him over
Seeds from the darkside
Planted when just a boy
Grew wild inside him now
The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
Till beautiful means perfect in our minds
Hated himself
All his life
Couldn't own his blessings
He pushed aside
Every ray of light
That photographed him shining
Slowly he wanted more
Than she could ever give
With her he fantasized
About a movie star
The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
Till beautiful means perfect in our minds
I like the way you move in the sun inside your room
I like the way you move in the sun inside your room
When the sun, it kisses your skin
And makes me crazy while you're in
I can't see you big at all
Suck your liiiiife, oh yeah
Slowly he went too far; flame to the fire
His breath curling all the pages of a magazine
The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
Till beautiful means perfect
The skin between your heart and mine
Like sun to moon and earth to sky
And brains are washed in glossy lies
You say I never give what you need
Stop lying
God knows
There's something your hiding from me
I'm fighting
Back in the daylight again
Feels good
Trying to start from the end
So good
Look in the mirror
Is anything clearer to you my dear?
You gotta be right
I'm gonna be real
You better get ready
For what you might feel
Why don't you come clean?
Would that be too much for you
Righteous one?
One day your gonna be all alone
Nobody
But I know you'll still be guarding your throne
Too funny
What will you do when I'm gone?
Lose it
Guess you'll believe that I'm wrong
Prove it
I hope someday you might wake up
And see what you've done
You gotta be right
I'm gonna be real
You better get ready
For what you might feel
Why don't you come clean?
Would that be too much for you
Righteous one?
I used to get high
And you were naive
But you were high too
From watching me bleed
Why don't you come clean?
Would that be too much for you
Righteous one?
Back in the daylight again
You lost your power
Looking for a light
Just a little sunshine for my soul
I'm sick of everything
And I don't want to die here
In this hole
Oh no
It's always give and take
Mend and break put out the fires
That's the way life is
We talk in dreams -
Are we just liars?
I don't want to say when I'm old
I never really tried
I could find another me
You could find another you
Turn this whole thing around
Have a different point of view
If they say it can't be done
They're just scared it might be true
It's just misery loves company
So I'm trying something new
(I've got better things to do)
Don't tell anyone
Keep it to yourself until it's real
And if they ask you why
Tell 'em that it's really no big deal
It's always win or lose
If you choose to be that shallow
That's the way it is
But they don't know
'cause they just follow
I don't want to say to my children
Daddy could have been....
I could find another me
You could find another you
Turn this whole thing around
Have a different point of view
If they say it can't be done
They're just scared it might be true
It's just misery loves company
So I'm trying something new
Well you gotta believe it
Before you can see it
And if you can't even dream it
Then you'll never unleash it
And if you say it, better mean it
If you really wanna be it
Yeah you you gotta believe it
Oh before you can see it
It's always win or lose
If you choose to be that shallow
That's the way it is
But they don't know
'cause they just follow
I don't want to say to my children
You know Daddy could have been....
I could find another me
You could find another you
Turn this whole thing around
Have a different point of view
If they say it can't be done
They're just scared it might be true
It's just misery loves company
Try to breathe a deeper breath
You get choked up in your regret
It falls apart in your mind
You're stuck in what you've left Behind
On and on, the record's playing
Same old song
That you've been dancing to
It's easy to believe it
When nothing seems to change
And when you try to fake it
You lose yourself again
Lift your eyes and you might
Find the light of day
Just look to see,
It's gonna be alright
A photographic memory
She memorized the worst in me
Painted scars across my soul
Now they're pretty hard to show
And all we have
We have created
Good or bad
It's what we make it now
It's easy to believe it
When nothing seems to change
And when you try to fake it
You lose yourself again
Lift your eyes and you might
Find the light of day
Just look to see
It's gonna be alright
And all we have we have created
Good or bad
It's what we make it now
It's easy to believe it
When nothing seems to change
And when you try to fake it
You lose yourself again
Lift your eyes and you might
Find the light of day
Just look to see
I'm all lost I'm out of reach
Somewhere in my head
Burning bridges, slamming doors
Sometimes I wish I were dead
Can't run
From the things that I can't hide
No way I can ever lose this fight
I'm exposed
Underneath the burning sun
From myself I can't run
There's one truth that I can see
Mirrors all around
Faces that reflect on me
By spirit we are bound
Can't run
From the things that I can't hide
No way I can ever lose this fight
I'm exposed
Underneath the burning sun
From myself I can't run
I'm not alone in this dirty world
But sometimes it feels so damn cold
And when I get down I just run away
It's the only thing I know
[solo]
Can't run
From the things that I can't hide
No way I can ever lose this fight
I'm exposed
Underneath the burning sun
From myself I can't run
Can't run
From the things that I can't hide
No way I can ever lose this fight
So exposed
Underneath the burning sun
Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
Like any hotblooded human
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you
You're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat heartening
To watch shepherd meet shepherd
But you
You're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like before
But this
Is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
I don't think you [Incomprehensible]
Well it's a slow moving car baby
Feels like I'm getting nowhere
Got the top pulled down to catch the wind
Blow the smell of you out of my hair
Well I've never been very stable
Seems like wherever I am it won't be for long
And I just don't know what I'm after anymore
Cause what I thought I knew was right couldn't be more wrong
You were a high wall to climb baby
And I never quite got over you
Yeah I knew all along I was slipping down
From the bottom of your heart and into the deep blue
Sometimes it's hard just to hold the wheel
But I'm keeping my eyes on this road
For my heart is a heavy load
So I might just have to leave it with you
Everything that I want to do
Comforts me tonight
I been leaking my soul across your floor
Sweeping my dreams away
And even though I've been losing sleep
I'm just keeping my eyes on this road
For my heart is a heavy load
Better know I'm gonna be alright
Got a long way to go but I got a lot of long nights
And everytime that I think of you, I'm gonna play my guitar
And I'll sing a little happy tune
Yeah my heart is a heavy load and that's why pretty girl I'm gonna leave it on your doorstep
