(Words and music by David Crosby)
Waking
Stream of consciousness
On a sleeping
Street of dreams
Thoughts
Like scattered leaves
Slowed in midfall
Into the streams
Chorus
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
on the delta
While they dance
While they dance
I love the child
Who steers this riverboat
But lately he's crazy
For the deep
And the river seems dreamlike
In the daytime
And someone keeps thinking
In my sleep
Chorus
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
And it seems as if time
Stops on the delta
While they dance
Waking
Stream of consciousness
On a sleeping
Street of dream
Thoughts
Like scattered leaves
Slowed in midfall
Into the streams
Chorus
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
And it seems as if time
Stops here on the delta
While they dance
While they dance
I love the child
Who steers this riverboat
But lately he's crazy
For the deep
And the river seems dreamlike
In the daytime
And someone keeps thinking
In my sleep
Chorus
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
And it seems as if time
Stops here on the delta
While they dance
While they dance . . . (repeated)
Waking stream of consciousness
On a sleeping street of dream
Thoughts like scattered leaves
Slowed in mid fall into the streams
Of fast running rivers of choice and chance
And time stops here on the delta
While they dance, while they dance
I love the child who steers this riverboat
But lately he's crazy for the deep
And the river seems dreamlike in the daytime
And someone keeps thinking in my sleep
Of fast running rivers of choice and chance
And time stops here on the delta
While they dance, while they dance
While they dance, while they dance
While they dance, while they dance
Throw me out in the cold, its cold as my heart. Leave an empty street, tell me where to start. Dont ask a question, dont ask why. Even if I start again, would it be the same? The same as the road I walk today. Tell me why. Even if I make it, I feel the pain ( Talk to me, tell me Im just fine. Tell me the distance between this line ). This is the color of my soul in black and white. This is me. This is my heart, its breaking down, Im screaming someone tell me please. Tell me why we wait, we waste away. Were falling from the place we must stay. Take me home. Even if I make it, I feel the pain ( Talk to me, tell me Im just fine. Tell me the distance between this line ). You feel the
Why you standing there alone?
What a loser, what a user I wanted to say
Why'd you come just to go, I wanted to know
Eat the rinds, cut the vines, force the fields
Make sure you're always pleased,
bring the pads for your skinned knees
Make sure you're always looking
underneath the cracks of all the floors
Early raining
Moving on along beside of me
Ever waiting
Farther down this river it must be
All my thoughts are broken
All the words are worn
Can it just be spoken?
Can it just be warm?
Stretch stretching
Far beyond this delta between we
Dive, diving
Deep beneath the surface suddenly
All my thoughts are broken
All the words are worn
Can it just be spoken?
Can it just be warm?
All my thoughts are broken
All my words are worn
Can it just spoken?
Throw me out in the cold, its cold as my heart. Leave an empty street, tell me where to start. Dont ask a question, dont ask why. Even if I start again, would it be the same?

Falling so deep
in my dreams
I wish peace.
I scream by plead
to our life
life unfair
Tears,
Pain,
Fear,
the words of my mind
Rage
Blood
Scream
Call of the wild
Please come here,
And take all my human flesh
Sacrifice of all my fears and sins
Please, just show me the way
Flying so far
I get lost
I'm nowhere
Coward and weak
I became
after my escape
Tears,
Pain,
Fear,
the words of my mind
Rage
Blood
Scream
call of the wild
Please come here,
And take all my human flesh
Sacrifice of all my fears and sins
Ship's computer to all personel. This is an emergency override. All systems must stand by. An asteroid storm is approaching the ship on collision course. This asteroid storm appears to be bound together by an electromagnetic energy vortex, like the one we ran into two years ago. Normally I wouldn't bother your voice with this problem, but as you recall my defensive circuits were destroyed in that other storm. Therefore you have 35 seconds to manually activate all defensive systems.
[Murs (With Delta):]
What up... What is up though
I'm in need of some hot noodeles... but anyway, check it out
It's Murs ummm
(Making-Underground-Raw-Shit)... and... and
(Defining eminating lyrics throughout Adelaide)
Is what we're doing today
It's Murs and Delta motherfucker, yeah and you know what
Mid-City, Adelaide and guess what... shut up
[Delta:]
Nah you don't have to shut up man
Maybe you just throw your hands up in the air
Like one, two
Hey Murs this girl told me you like to talk in your sleep...
[Verse 1: Murs]
I write rhymes like this in my sleep
So peep my nocturnal emission, a hot journal description
And drop, earn your division
That's not, earned his position
I got, surgeons precision
So stop learning the rhythm
I can't whistle like Banks but do my fizzle to breaks
Until I'm rid of your hate
No fluff when I bust, it's like a brick to the face
Here to hit you so hard that you forget that I'm great
So ya, play it again and say to your friends
That on a scale of 1 to 5, I was rated a 10
And that's two times better, but who rhymes better
I know it's the same line but really - who rhymes better
Fill your name in the blank and feel the pain in my shank
Push your game to the plank, and it's a shame that you sank
But you know who to thank
It's your fat-mouth fans you can blame for your fate
[Scratches/Turntablism: Kim Dezen]
"Class is in session"
"Master this lesson"
"Class is in session"
"Master this lesson"
[Verse 2: Delta]
I write rhymes like this cause the battle is done
On some U2 rock-style rattling hum
Sunday, bloody Sunday, Sabbath's come
Back in Black was a dope beat for KRS-One
Make a grown man flinch like he hammered his thumb
Spit fire through wire 'til I callous my gum
Angers fun, mad numb
Not emo, use pens like Joe Pesci did in Casino
We know the truth, even flows loose as this with no market
Still see no loop
Ego suits retard emcees
They're all biters, sound like Kanye East
You ghostwriters, just a man and a sheep
Giving out One Nation pamphlets at KFC
But racist catch hate here for free
Forget VIP, I rhyme in a streak - peace
[Scratches/Turntablism: Kim Dezen]
"Class is in session"
"Master this lesson"
"Class is in session"
We're all just complex arrangements of atoms and sub atomic particles we don't (...) move about in such a way (...) re-arrange themselves. We're all just complex arrangements of atoms that create wonderful music.
I got, I got it. Schizoeffective, lika paranoid schizofrenia, I got a multiple personality.
[Delta:]
It's gone too far
It's time to wipe the fake blood off that platinum plate
"When you say you're right, but you know you're wrong
Than have you the right to carry on"
[Verse 1: Delta]
On these beats how many emcees present arms
Teach kids how to commit grievous harm
Martin turned Poor Arthur into Vietnam
Joe Citizen thinks he's Genghis Kahn
And a Heckler & Koch replaced my boombox
Flocks rock ox-cutters in their tube socks
I don't disrespect those forced to battle
No hippy tryna slide a white flower down a barrel
But that thug pose, where the snub nose gotta go
You suffer paranoia? Most don't wanna know
These rappers openly claim to cock back the heat
Before career criminals, they're not that discreet
That M16 with a full magazine
You can't disasemble and don't know how to clean
A rhyme about a gun ain't as dangerous
As a kid holding one feeling aimlessness, suckers
[Chorus:]
"When you say you're right"
One less gun
"But you know you're wrong"
What we saying is
"Than have you the right to carry on"
[Skinnyman:] STOP YOUR GUN TALK
"When you say you're right"
One less gun
"But you know you're wrong"
Drop that front
"When you take the life"
The pain goes on
[Verse 2: Skinnyman]
You can't be pulling no wool over my eyes
To tell me that it's right, when it's wrong
And where acting like life goes on
Carry on, after so many lives have gone
From the blades of the swords to the bullets of the guns
And now we're recognising how far we've come
Hell on earth is manifested through the shell of a bomb
And [? ] carnage running strong, now we're facing armageddon
Don't tell me that it's right when it's far from fixed up
The whole world's mixed-up, put your arms in the air
It's the arms of fear, your nations sticker
Plain to see they can't justify their acts
And they can't deny the facts
What took place through the past and karma's gonna come right back
So don't tell me nothing's wrong with that
After years of our life you've been saying that it's all alright
But it's all coming home tonight, and we'll see if you're right
[Chorus:]
"When you say you're right"
[Skinnyman:] One less gun
"But you know you're wrong"
What we saying is
"Than have you the right to carry on"
[Skinnyman:] STOP YOUR GUN TALK
[Verse 3: Delta]
Half game-hunter, half blade-runner
303 or 45, the same number
Scant to enter the club? No wonder
First blood's the Hollywood spell your son's under
Before you lick off spray, may wish to pay
Attention to which way the bullets ricochet
A loaded fire arm is a clip full of strays
To lay any innocent victim up in a grave
Inner-hate we feel now rising to the skin
Hiding in a rental home, fighting for your kin
The worth of life hangs in the balance
The true challenge is to not assume the role of a savage
Sharpen up and bury hatchets
Infra-red Crew wear the new era logo on your cap is
How pathetic another joint about a gat is
Now uranium can blow the globe off it's axis
[Chorus:]
"When you say you're right"
One less gun
"But you know you're wrong"
What we saying is
"Than have you the right to carry on"
[Skinnyman:] STOP YOUR GUN TALK
"When you say you're right"
[Skinnyman:] One less gun
Drop that front
"When you take the life"
The pain goes on"
[Skinnyman:]
They can't say that they're right when we know that they're wrong
From the days they've owned the very first gun
From when they took the Chinese gun powder and put it in a led pipe
And shot someone
From when they took a cannon and took 21 shots to blow off the nose
Of the sphinx
It kinda makes you think, they keep using the bombs and the guns
And we'll all be extinct
This has been a Mark B production
Brought to you by Delta, featuring myself, Skinnyman
We don't back no weapons of destruction
Not at all we don't take life
That's not part of our promotion
And we're out, peace
"When you say you're right, but you know you're wrong
I am a lone wolf
I always was and will be
I feel fine, I am resigned to this
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
Got my cares, wrapped up all nice and neat
In my suitcase, I'll take it down the street
To a place with plenty of space for me
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
It blows my mind
That people wanna try to get inside my tired head
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
I am a lone wolf
Nobody needs to get too close to me
You'll only see this truth
Arriving to the battlefield
I can smell fear from miles away
It’s too late for me
No turning back
No one can save me from this bloody hell!
Lady Death’s job has begun
To hate is the only way to survive
Is this the end?
Confusion’s everywhere
Just want to leave this God’s forsaken place
[Chorus:]
Fire and destruction will lead you to pain
Watching your children fight to death
Today you’ll take your last breath
I beg for forgiveness for all that I’ve done
‘Cause certainly hell is what I will have
For taking their lives, is my turn now
When I was just running back
An enemy’s bullet came from behind
Ran out of Luck
I feel her cold dead hand
She’s taking my life to another land
[Chorus]
[Solos and shit]
Here I go again
Fighting to make through the day
Cannot play this game
There’s too much to lose at stake
I can take no more this bitterness
I’m slowly losing consciousness
Everything is just turning into a living hell
Being treated like a slave
It’s like being inside a cave
Without a damn way out
And nobody around
I’ve just got to plan my own revenge
[Chorus:]
I’m your master
Your disaster
For I will now rule your life
I must put an end to this
Making justice by my fist
I don’t want a salary
Honor works just fine for me
Take that back you worthless scum
Up and down
Pass it around
Smile and say
This is where is want to be
In the crowd
They'll make you proud
I'll smile and say
This is where you want to be
Well I can't believe
This is me
Well i was just living a dream
Of what i want to be
What I wanted to see in me
But i know what to believe
In who i am
What I'm gonna be
Up and down
Turn it around
It's not ok
I swear I'm gonna leave you this town
I'll smile and say
It's time for me to leave
Well I can't believe
Stop please,
I can't wait anymore,
Inner pain I have,
External end will come.
My friends,
are still blinded by gold,
see their sadness,
see their weakness.
Now conclusion and conviction,
I need force and some of wisdom,
Then I'll find the best solution,
To destroy this rare illusion.
I will fight now to defeat you,
Step aside and let me focus,
Stay behind the deepest abyss,
You the sixth, Apollyon Angel.
Thank you,
For making me grow up,
For making me think about things,
For finding the way I need.
You are here,
The shining star is here,
This is my reason to be,
This is my way to live
The time has ended for all reflexion,
I must be away from all temptation,
Temptation, word of no salvation,
Destruction of all creation.
I will fight now to defeat you,
Step aside and let me focus,
Stay behind the deepest abyss,
You the sixth, Apollyon Angel.
Now that I have got my wings,
I will fly across the sea,
I need to fly,
Fly far away,
Away from you,
Look into my eyes
Through my disguise, please enter
[please come in]
Not a castle, nor gold
Look how my honour keeps fading
[fading]
Running away
From the end of the road
I'm screaming [screaming]
Calling out your name
Promises being forsaken [forsaken]
What am I waiting for?
Look what I have done...
Because I'm meant to lie
Because my soul will die
There's no salvation
This is my ending
Because I've lost your trust
Our dreams turned into dust
My word is worthless
Alone and hopeless
Lost and senseless
Come and play again!
Crying out loud
My mind ask now for forgiveness
I made up my mind
I'm gonna burn all this nonsense
See hell in yourself
The pain from what I've created
From tears and laments
You sorrow needs to be ended
Look what I have done...
Because I'm meant to lie
Because my soul will die
There's no salvation
This is my ending
Because I've lost your trust
Our dreams turned into dust
My word is worthless
Alone and hopeless
Because you wanna try
Because you think I can
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna face it
I'm living on my own
Until the final dawn
Leave all resentment
There's no replacement
Doubts are fading
Carry me back
To the begining of my life
When problems were away
When emotions were not wild
Why did you do this to me?
Why? If you know my kind
I know it was just an accident
But I’m not that blind
I can see arround me
People killing each others
But my fingers weren’t so bad
I just want to sing with my hands
[Chorus]
You’ve said you know nothing
But you have so many faces
You really know how
To stick a knife in my back
My life became nothing
Because I’ve lost my voices
I just want to play my guitar
Sickness controls your whole body
I know how to restore your well-being
It’s useless you can’t live without me
There’s no way, you cannot withstand
I know you got used to the feeling
Now it’s time for you to understand
Your urges are the ones who are pulling the strings
[Chorus 1:]
I, cannot believe it
My inner demons are pulling me down
Did not foreseen it
Will someone tell me why I was so…
So sick and tired of my desire
I will take what it’s mine
I was born free to decide
[Chorus 2:]
I cannot believe it
My inner demons are pulling me down
I did not foreseen it
Will someone tell me why I was so blind?
Cannot conceive it
You were the one who was bringing me down
I did not foreseen it
Will someone tell me why I was so blind?
What the hell has happened?
I can’t believe my eyes
Why did you betray me?
I work hard for you all day
I hear someone’s laughter
Please tell me no more lies
You belong only to me
I’ll make him fade away
I will get my gun and make sure that nothing stays like
this
My heart is filled with vengeance you must pay for all
your sins
[Chorus:]
Hey, two bullets will just work fine for me
One bullet for you and one for him
Don worry I'll do it fast
I’ll only turn your body into dust!
So how much anger you can see?
My blood is burning all my skin
Don worry I'll do it fast
I’ll only turn your body into dust!
Why have you forgotten?
All the great times we had
Or you we’re only acting?
To take all away from me
Do I gave you affection?
Guess it wasn’t enough for you
Your lust was your answer
Our marriage has gone to hell
I will get my gun and make sure that nothing stays like
this
My heart is filled with vengeance you must pay for all
your sins
How Unfortunate!
Can’t be part of this damn fate
How does heaven turns to hell?
I am terrified
All my dreams and hopes have died
Mesmerized!
I’ve just got to find my way out
The only thing I want is to cry loud
Killer fears
Shedding Tears
I just want to go to that place
Painful times
Deceiving lies
Cannot find a way to escape
Losing faith
Growing Pain
Can’t destroy this fucking holding cage
Big Disgrace
How I Became?
I’m the man behind the masquerade
Lies are useful tools
All your friends are stupid fools
They don’t know what they are missing
No, my friend, I’m not just dreaming
But then, I see the truth
I cannot pull this charade through
I must go on, it keeps me sane
Oh my God I’m fading away!
Losing faith
Growing Pain
Can’t destroy this fucking holding cage
Big Disgrace
How I Became?
I’m the man behind the masquerade
But then I’m here again
Inside my own confining cell
I will take the whole damn blame
I promise no more lies
Cannot break the chain that binds
Need your help!
Give me all your confidence again
So I can regret and fly away
Killer fears
Shedding Tears
I just want to go to that place
Painful times
Deceiving lies
Cannot find a way to escape
Losing faith
Growing Pain
Can’t destroy this fucking holding cage
Big Disgrace
How I Became?
There’s nothing left to do
Just don’t ask me how
Could be me or it could be you
Just the car, the road and me
I’m feeling now the need
To hit the gas, the boost and get the hell away from
here
[Bridge 1:]
I don’t want
To obey the rules
So let me ride
And live fast
If you cross the line
I’ll take you down
Destroy your whole life
And I’m never gonna stop
[Chorus:]
I’m the maniac of the road
Dominator of them all
A perfect day for a violent race
Hellsinger
Painbringer
Destruction is my goal
You walk down through the losers’ hall
There’s no room for second place
Un-maker
Crashbreaker
I’m addicted to the sound
Of a heavy massive crash
OH yeah it feels so loud
Can hear your suspension smash
I don’t mind about traffic jams
Just drive on the oncoming lane
And hit the gas, the boost and get the hell away from
there
[Bridge 2:]
If you cross the line
I’ll take you down
Destroy your whole life
And I’m never gonna stop
[Chorus]
You say you're good
Make no mistakes
You never fail
So very cool
Under the looking
Glass we're being watched
If you're so bright
Tell me what's right
Because you know
You are above
You disappear so fast
When I stand in front
Wonder if you got the balls
To stand where I run the show
Still laugh when I fall
Mark my words, stop this war
I'm walking to the light
Rocking all the crowd
Living my dream more than ever
You Staring with disdain
You say it's all in vain
Are you just too blind to see that
I, try to entertain
The best way that I can
Living my dream more than ever
Why you don't understand?
I ease my daily pain
Are you just too blind to see?
We are the revolution
Why don't you speak your mind?
Yes you! Spit it out!
Are we too much for you?
I look outside my window
And see how things are said and done
Oh helplessness is what I feel
And then I start to wonder
If law is based on a smoking gun
Oh everything seems so unreal
Tell me now
Is there justice?
Can’t allow
So disgusting
Disavow
Nothing matters they are masters
Help us someone
I desire
A new life
No sorrow
Why cannot they disappear?
If the system works
I can’t believe that
I still watch them
Walk the road
Give drugs to my friends
The doors keep spinning
Installing electric fences
And cameras everywhere
Transforming into a big fortress
I can’t see the light of day
I’m putting up my defenses
Protecting the land I swear
Avoiding all kind of trouble
Out in the dark I’m walking
Wondering what I should do
Do you feel the same thing too?
Why the hell it isn’t stopping?
“I’m the only one, the source of fear
I can make your problems disappear
All you can imagine can be real
Can get better??
But nothing in life you can get for free
One pitiful soul is the cheapest fee
Forget about them and sign the deal
Mine Forever!”
[Chorus 1:]
Can’t believe my eyes
The Lord of Darkness has arrived
He comes to take my soul
Leading me into temptation
I must not believe his lies
Never did, I never tried
His heart is black and cold
Pushing me into my own damnation
I’m the master of my own path
There’s nothing you can really do
I would never work for you
I must face the devil’s wrath
“I cannot stand this insolence
I must break you with violence
Can you even imagine what all this means?
Pain Forever!!
Pitiful mortal, I will crush your face
You’re just nothing but a big disgrace
Can you even imagine what all this means?
Die forever!!”
[Chorus 1]
[Solos]
[Chorus 2:]
Can’t believe my eyes
The Lord of Darkness has confined
My one and only soul
Leading me into temptation
Now I want to believe his lies
Always did, I always tried
My heart is black and cold
My loud cry will shake the ground
Sick and tired of your arrogance
I couldn’t bear any more I had to make a stand
Had enough of being afraid
I will make you regret all the things you said
[Bridge:]
So you will face me?
Get ready for it
No hesitation
I will make you fall
[Chorus:]
You earned the fury of my fist my friend I know you’ll
What did you expect to find? You’re forcing me to fight
you face to face
Why don’t you shout your mouth? I bet you wouldn’t even
There is no turning back, there’s nowhere to escape
So will you cry for help?
So you’re calling all your friends?
News flash for you my friend,
I don’t care how many I have to face
You know my fuel is my rage
No one can stop me now I have to raise some hell
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
You earned the fury of my fist my friend I know you’ll
What did you expect to find? You’re forcing me to fight
you face to face
I used to have a simple life
Every morning was an endless shine
But it was only a lie.
My days were all the same
And nothing seemed to change
"Go home and sleep,
Wake up and repeat"
[Chorus:]
Oh meaning of life
Why are you so far?
Far away like a shining star
Show some mercy and keep me alive
Now I feel numb and lost
Wandering just like a ghost
I need to find the way
The way to break this hell
It's like a witch's spell
"Go home and sleep,
Wake up and repeat".
[Chorus]
Oh meaning of life
Why are you so far?
Far away like a shining star
Sun turns just like his elders did
Taking part in the mystic songs of spheres
Where the path shows you the opened side of the spirit,
Where his glance gives force to the angels,
When no one else could understand,
That his great eyes were the light of the sun.
The furious storm makes the impetuous chain.
Of the circle, circle that turns into mystery
All in earth is hateful,
The devil shows mercy to all men,
In their misery, like an art,
It's time to confess, it's time to confess,
Bloody men, the illness that brings us...
The Faustus...
I want to lead you to men.
I want to lead you to nothing.
I want to lead you...
I want to lead you to men.
I want to lead you to nothing.
I want to lead you...
The man only gets lost when he is searching himself in
the darkness,
The man only gets lost when he is searching his life,
Sometimes I feel alone,
Sometimes I must be strong,
Sometimes I can't see,
Anything around me,
Only lies come alive,
Watching only through my mind,
I'm alone, all alone,
That's not true,
I'll see all by my own.
Angel of the forest,
Are you standing in the sands of time?
Help me to open my eyes,
Oh please, I need to see...
Show me the truth,
I need to know the other side,
Now that I can see,
All it's clear for me,
My wish is complete.
A labyrinth without end,
This is new and makes me scared,
The truth is sad, and makes me ill,
But it's ok, I must be strong,
It's too difficult to understand
In my position someone else would die
Don't be afraid, don't look back
Don't run away, you can't hide so long
Angel of the forest
Are you standing in the sands of time?
Help me to open my eyes
Oh please, I need to see...
Show me the truth
I need to know the other side
Now that I can see
All it's clear for me
All my eforts were in vain...
Where do you see the waste of time?
Why this world has to be this way?
What did you expect?
Maybe some traces of light...
Your words are blinded by fear.
What would you do in my place?
Not just crying.
What do you mean?
I'm saying you're weak.
I don't care what you have to say.
Well you should care.
My life is my own.
I'm part of you.
I'll never be able to get away from you.
Never!
Help me to get out of here.
Will you escape again?
No, I'll fight here face to face!
Finally you're thinking.
I'll face this nightmare...
This nightmare is the world...
Then I'll Face the World!
Holy master
Guide and guardian
From within my deepest sorrows I rise
To pray for thy protection
For thy blessing I need
To break free from this oppression
That fills my heart with despair
I invoke thy holy name
To give me the power
And the strength
To walk on...
To fin the path that will deliver my heart
From all grief
To reach the light that lies deep
You once said I'd never survive
But here I am now, just rising again
Fighting my demons with all my might
Spilling their blood, just feel my rage
[Bridge:]
Now I see, all is clear for me
In this time and place I feel alive again
[Chorus 1:]
Before, I felt nothing but grief
Crying in the shadows but not anymore
Now I'm the person that I wish to be
Facing the world just on my own
Just turn your back on fear
Feel my burning soul
Never thought that the answer was there
In front of my eyes, I couldn't believe
Always remember, don't forget your past
A tree without its roots, can never stand still
[Bridge]
[Chorus 2:]
Before, I felt nothing but fear
Running forever but not anymore
Now I'm the person that I wish to be
Facing the world just on my own
Just turn your back on fear
Feel my burning soul!!
Before, I felt nothing but grief
Crying in the shadows but not anymore
Now I'm the person that I wish to be
Facing the world just on my own
Before, I felt nothing but fear
Running forever but not anymore
Now I'm the person that I wish to be
Facing the world just on my own
Just turn your back on fear
When passion is lost
and all truth is gone
(all truth is gone)
Way too far
For so long
We're turning away
Away from the name...
Away from the storm
Cause we are through
The meaning of the wounds of all...
Tears of blood
Are falling (into the sea)
Deep inside
Right on the bottom
Of our hearts
Words of corruption
Minds of war must be dead
Slay them all
And make their souls
Sleep in the dust of eternal war.
Apollyon is free
Apollyon is free again
Apollyon is free
Inside of me.
Now chaos is here
Playing with our fears
(Playing with our fears)
Survival sense
All solutions turn egocentric
We're turning away
Away from the name...
Away from the storm
Cause we are trough
The meaning of the wounds of all...
Tears of blood
Are falling (into the sea)
Deep inside
Right on the bottom
Of our hearts
Words of corruption
Minds of war must be dead
Slay them all
And make their souls
Sleep in the dust of eternal war.
Apollyon is free
Apollyon is free again
Apollyon is free
Inside of me.
[Poem: ]
"The human race is going to perish with their own
hands, and the kingdom of loneliness will appear.
Destruction will be everywhere and death will arise
with silence, at the less expected places.
Houses will stay up, but there will be none to live in
them,
because there is no other sunrise,
Black lady come to me
I want to go astray
Desire within me
A guide to my decay
I know that you’ll be gone
When night becomes a day
You yawned when I claimed love
Turned back and walked away
I call out your name
With no reply at all
Another pawn in your game
Meets his darkest fall
I’ve lost all my faith
My soul goes into stall
Maybe I am the eighth
That knocks at your back door
I want to feel again
That pleasant strawberry haze
Maybe I’ve gone insane
The devil’s dancer caught me
Enticed me, and fooled me
Again and again and again
Into the night she comes
And suddenly she strikes
Another fool has fallen into her
And when the time is right
She leaves you far behind
Desperation feeling in your mind
I want to feel again
That pleasant strawberry haze
Maybe I’ve gone insane
The devil’s dancer caught me
Why don’t you dance all night?
Let’s step out of the light
Entice me, and fool me
Again and again and again
I want to feel again
That pleasant strawberry haze
Maybe I’ve gone insane
The devil’s dancer caught me
Why don’t you dance all night?
Let’s step out of the light
I wan to feel alright
The devil’s dancer caught me
Enticed me, fooled me
We were so united
Remained undivided
No one will take away those moments full of joy
But I guess that never
Things last forever
We just forgot that we are only God’s toys
[Chorus 1:]
Why did you die?
Why you didn’t stay?
Can’t understand why you’re away
Did he make you lose this whole damn fight?
Listen to me, my friend
A message to you I send
It was my fault I hope someday you’ll understand
[Chorus 2 (x2):]
I never cared
I wasn’t even scared
Cannot forget that goddamned day
Just forgot that your own life… hangs on a thread
[Chorus 1]
Waking
Stream of consciousness
On a sleeping
Street of dreams
Thoughts
Like scattered leaves
Slowed in midfall
Into the streams
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
on the delta
While they dance
While they dance
I love the child
Who steers this riverboat
But lately he's crazy
For the deep
And the river seems dreamlike
In the daytime
And someone keeps thinking
In my sleep
Of fast
Running rivers
Of choice and chance
And time stops here
And it seems as if time
Stops on the delta
While they dance
Being young's romantic
The tourists smile and say cheese
It's sad when you're just a postcard
Dolores has got herself a lie
Frozen you last forever
Got Shakespeare in the personals
Our palms read fragile lifelines
that stretch a hundred miles or more
And hey, love, don't cha think about me sometimes
Think about you way more than I'd like
And hey, love, don't cha think about me sometimes
Think about you way more than I'd like
Hey big eyes
got such keen eyes
Try so hard ya try so hard
ya try so hard
ya try so hard
From all of my friends
all of my friends
Try so hard ya try so hard
ya try so hard
ya try so hard
(try to fall for stranger)
Kiss just like a car crash
It's where the air breathes easier
You missed the whole first chapter
The stories were etched in the cement
Pullin' out the compass
We're right back where we started from
If it's any consolation
Remember we're fucked up together so far
And hey, love, don't cha think about me sometimes
Think about you way more than I'd like
And hey, love, don't cha think about me sometimes
Think about you way more than I'd like
Hey keen eyes
Got such big eyes
Try so hard ya try so hard
ya try so hard
ya try so hard
From all of my friends
all of my friends
Try so hard ya try so hard
ya try so hard
ya try so hard
