2. Chameleonation
Chameleonation
Long ago
And the older ones will know
Was a time when chidren cried
You see their eyes
They wanna touch you
Wanna talk to you and ask you
Why their daddies changed their minds
You see their eyes, they shine
Children grow
And what daddies never know
They are heading for own lifes
They keep inside
(What) they've been told to
Just a mission to be followed
Personality a lie
You see their eyes, they shine
You wish you've had more time
And a shine is just a lie
You see their eyes, they shine
Welcome to the land of tomorrow
Two shadows without face in the crowd
Here comes just the new generation
Wanna take you and show you the way to
Chameleonation
Long ago
Somewhere hidden and alone
(You) could have found a little chime
They realized
A need of thinkin'
Never stopped their way of bringin'
Out the things they had mind
You see their eyes, they shine
Terror in the darkness
Crazy pictures lead into madness
They can't see no reason why
Every shine is just a lie
Words & Music : Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
3. Turn Into
Turn Into
Sitting alone in the darkness
The eyes starin' right through the wall
Igot to love, they don't give a chance
Feels like a total recall
Nothing to find here beside me
Nothing but a bottle of wine
Feels like I already had enough
But nothing's gonna do, nothing's gonna leave my brain
No words to say
Nothing to find
Not two of a kind
Turn into another way
Take me to the other side
Turn into another way
Reaching for the ray of light
Turn into another way
Telling me the time is right
Turn into another way
Now it's time to realize
Ease gets into my body
I can't stop my eyes from turning
Emptiness in my glass of wine
My mind just feels like burning
Feels like an endless river
Millions of letters inside
But they don't speak to me in words
And nothing's gonna do, nothing's gonna leave my brain
4. Falling
Falling
Just one step ahead a road too hard to follow
Could not see the end without light
Time came running down with loneliness and sorrow
Take you by the hand through the night
Like an eagle without wings
Like a candle in the rain
Like powder in the wind
Like crystal without sun
Like a down in the storm
From the mountain to the sea
Falling - I promised to catch you again
Falling - So hard to understand
Falling - You'll count on me as a friend
Somewhere deep inside
There's a feeling I can't hide
I'll catch your fall tonight
Once we had a time, we always will remember
Couldn't reach the end by my side
There's no turnin' back, too late to stop the sorrow
Take me by the hand through the night
We were driftin' away
There's nothing left here that we can say
But at the end of the day
We'll start it over again and again
Catch your fall tonight
I'm falling
Falling
Words & Music : O.Scheer, G.Naschke
5. Run For Cover
Run For Cover
Everyday that he got lost
Was that chance he came across
Start to play a little lottery
There's a voice inside his ear
Says it's time to disappear
Turn into a memory
Leave the past right out of sight
Remember all you left behind
(Remember allways what you left behind)
Run for cover
Waiting for a better day to come
No reason to die young (no reason)
Run for cover
Waiting for a better day to come
No reason to die young
He can always raise a smile
But you'll never see him riling
Always on the run
No temptation to resist
Never called him moralist
Always looking for the sun
Words & Music : Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
6. Now We Are One
Now We Are One
You felt so right
You couldn't fall
Your word was always accepted as law
After that night
The power came
To knock on your innocence door
Too many lives
Without a call
They came along to destroy them all
Fights day and night
Against the wall
It seemed that they have enjoyed your fall
Remember the tales of the smaller ones
(Remember the tales of the smaller guys)
Watch out now
David is back on the run
Now - That we have reached the stars
We - Aim for same reasons
Are - Trying to find a thorn
One - Mission of deacons
(One - Mission of deacons)
You seemed that strong
Never alone
They came to strike you right at home
You can't go on
You can't go through
It's time for you to tell them the truth
A creed is just the reason why
A creed that brings hell to sky
Words & Music : O.Scheer, G.Naschke
7. Leave You Tonight
Leave You Tonight
We light the fire
We let it glow
We kept desire
But we should know
One day it happens
The things have changed
Just smooth and silent, without a range
We feed the flames high and low
Smoke has gone - it's the end of the show
Where no lightning strikes
Our heart again
The flames are (still) burning
The heat goes on
Tables turning
The light has gone
The pain it grows
I feel the rain
The water chokes the fires again and again
(I leave you tonight)
You left before the morninglight
Nothing brings you back into my arms
(I leave you tonight)
We lost our light
Something's changed that's hidden deep inside
On our way to the point of no return
Water is falling
It comes like rain
We hear that calling
It's all in vain
The fear it grows
There was that rain
That starts washing the feelings away
Feed the flames high and low
Something's changed deep inside
We lost our light
8. Another Day (#9)
Another Day (# 9)
Inside the window
Feels like endless rain
Just another ordinary day
I feel the distance
You're not here with me
You're too far from everything I need
So far away
Don't hear me calling
Crying out your name of love
Can't see me falling
Take away my pain inside - another day
Outside the window
Rain turns into snow
Looks like it's the end of lonely sorrow
We gonna break the distance
It's time to make a change
Need to live our lives without that pain
Not far away
You hear me calling
Starting for new life again
I stopped my falling
Ready now, waiting for
Another day
Time has come
Nothing's left to win a game
Another day
Brings you back
Right in time to start again
I meet you in my dream
(We meet inside our dreams)
I hear you calling
Crying out my name of love
You stopped me falling
Ready now, waiting for
Words & Music : Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
9. Never Before
Never Before
I got doubts for everyday
There's no place where I can stay
Without complaints
For a total change
Flyin' right into the sun
Island 'Never-ending-fun'
Never had a rain
Nor a hurricane
No more goals today
Nothing else to say
Drivin' in a Jaguar
Looks like I could be a star
'Til the car breaks down
With that noisy sound
Playing with that little dog
Think it is a dialogue
'Til he shows his teeth
And I feel the heat
No more goals today
Nothing else to say
Stop right now
Not any further
Don't tell it to me again
Stop it now
Now and forever
I can't take it no more
You've never seen that before
(And soon you never will)
Watching girls on MTV
Colours more than I can see
'Til the screen explodes
In unusual mode
Talkin' to a girl called May
Fall in love the other day
'Til I can find
That she's a guy
You're my examinee
I got the holy key
This is your destination (This is your destination)
I am your destiny
Looking for prodigies
Nothing but hallucinations (Only hallucinations)
Words & Music : Burkhard Becker, Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
10. Still Burnin'
Still Burnin'
Back on the streets
I can feel the rhythm
Chasing my dream
I was hypnotised
All I could see
Was just that light of passion
There must be more
Than working day and night
Such a long, long time from now
Do you feel we've died somehow
(On our way within the crowd)
No time for breaks
I was so impatient
Always too late
Like a dog on the run
All I can say
I felt always sorry
For all my life
I always caused them pain
My heart still burns
But it's never too late to return
And now I feel I can touch the sky
My heart still burns now
And it's never too late to die
No it's never too late to die
After those years
Of total illusion
Sold all my tears
At my own sacrifice
Don't forget fears
They have always been part of
Part of those years
I have lived my life
Taking my time
I took all for granted
Every night
When I'm back all alone
No one beside
Cheering me up again
I definitely know
What I have lost in life
Words & Music : Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
11. Body & Soul
Body & Soul
Power of the river
Every move is just a move of your head
Your instinct's washed by a foreign rain
Freedom's what you'll never get back
You want me to follow through the night
No, nothing gets me doing what ain't right
You've gone with the river
You've been taught but you did not learn
You know that you've gone much too far
But it's too late for safety returns
You want me to follow through the night
No, nothing gets me doing what ain't right
You ain't got my body
You ain't got my soul
All I have to give is just Rock 'n' Roll
Dead end of the river
Your float has gone right over the edge
And I'm standing alone by the waterfalls
The abyss, one-way street straight ahead
Words & Music : Oliver Scheer, Gino Naschke, Michael Mehl, Steve Lagleder
12. My Own Paradise
My Own Paradise
Wishful thinking
And a case of ideas
Led by the scars of compromise
I made a lot
But the gift of my tears
Now washing away the haze from my eyes
Seems I'm heading for pain
But I'm not afraid
The living are always safe!
I'm about to see clear
The Now and the Here
The present is near - I've
Found my own paradise
Right in the present timing
I'm safe in my eden out here
I've longed for today
In so many ways
I'm facing the past at last
Hopes and yearnings
And a heart of ideas
Led by the scars of compromise
Out of the maze of
The routine of my fears
Casting off my habitual disguise
If you leave your past behind
It's for you to see
The ease and clearity
Of your life!
As the former times can't reach you here
There is nothing more
Nothing more to fear
Music: Steve Lagleder Words: Matthias Willig
