1. On the Run
1.
No time to waste
I´m on the run
Born to be fast
2.
No time for sleep
Always awake
Nothing to miss
3.
Getting dark?
Turn on the lights
Fight the night
4.
Never tired
Moving fast
I´m getting higher
5.
So much to know
So much to learn
So far to go
6.
I`ll reach the top
I`ll cross the line
No time to stop
7.
Don`t stop me either
I`d rip your heart out
Get out of my way
8.
I feel the power
The inner strength
I rule the hour
2. Lights in the Dark
1.
Lights in the dark
Sparks to die away
Life is only a trifle
Nothing to replay
2.
He never has been patient
Now the walls are closing in
And his soul feels ancient
What caused this all?
3.
Often he was tempted
To believe in fairy-tales
Now he sees how naïve
His reproaches were
4.
Faith in everything
Believed what he was told
The mind of a child
Barely any own thought
5.
And now he finds
What`s left behind
A fool growing old
In a mortal frame
3. 1942
1.
A child was born in winter 1942
Its father died on the battlefield
And thousands of others, too
2.
Men killed for the nations
Women, children died
Violation across the land
3.
The sun goes down forever
No future together
Hope, anger, hate
For peace it`s not too late
4. Son to Father
5. Entertainment
1.
Start a new war, the last one`s over
Main thing I am sober
2.
Suicide attempts write history
Violence life-like on tv
3.
A 15 year old killed nine men
The pictures of the dead were quite good then
4.
The critics dead ordered by law
The show trial everyone saw
Ref.:
Entertainment at all costs
Innocent suffer the loss
5.
Silence! A girl is screaming
Violation! Let`s go to see him
6.
The neighbour stinking since ten days dead
This should not happen people said
7.
Silent regrets in possession
Is it obsession?
8.
Silent regrets in possession
Is it obsession?
Ref.:
Entertainment at all costs
Innocent suffer the loss
6. Buried Alive
1.
When I sometimes close my eyes
My mind starts spinning around
The abyss of a thousand lives
Till I hit the ground
2.
When I try to break free
Impossible to break the walls
Because I know they`re made of dreams
Built up in some evil halls
3.
Then I feel as if I`m caught
Damned to bear all misery
Then I know through thousand lives
I`ve beared all misery
4.
Inside I feel rage
Like a whispering thunder
This will pull me under
Ref.:
Buried alive
Hurried through life
5.
Sometimes when I wake up
I find myself in a coffin
I scream at the sky above
And the gods are laughing
6.
Is this real or just fantasy
I try to realize
I open up my eyes
Earth is falling on my coffin
