1. Intro
2. Standing in Line
Strophe:
Life is hard you complain
I admit you are right
the grass is always greener
on the other side
Nothing in this world is for free
I think that this is surely known to us
merely some sweet little moments in life
are safely set aside for us
Bridge:
Let's laugh a bit too long
let's laugh a bit too loud
pretending to have some fun
that's what this life is all about
Chorus:
We're alive
we're standing in line
the ground is burning
we're running out of time
Here we are
standing in line
this world keeps turning
around us standing in line
Strophe:
Life is hard we complain
all we want is what we haven磘 got
I don磘 care of any meaning of life
most keep searching for but I am not
Bridge:
Let's laugh a bit too long
let's laugh a bit too loud
pretending to have some fun
that's what this life is all about
Chorus:
We're alive
we're standing in line
the ground is burning
we're running out of time
Here we are
standing in line
this world keeps turning
around us standing in line
Strophe:
The kids have grown, here we are
some is said but nothing's done
still embracing our childhood's illusion
that our finest hour's yet to come
Bridge:
Let's laugh a bit too long
let's laugh a bit too loud
pretending to have some fun
that's what this life is all about
Chorus:
We're alive
we're standing in line
the sky is burning
we're running out of time
Here we are
standing in line
this world keeps turning
around us standing in line
3. Say Your Prayers
Strophe:
There you are and here we go
same old story, same old show
I know you and you know me
my friend and enemy
Keep on trying to pretend
we're by your side, your helping hand
we have nothing else to share
so we just don't care
Chorus:
Say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna die
Strophe:
Peace on earth we always preach
from far away and out of reach
a little bit hypocrisy
is our philosophy
Do you see that broken man?
but we'll never understand
we've put him into misery
his wife and family
Chorus:
Say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna die
say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna cry
Strophe:
Say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna die
we'd really like to change your fate
we're sorry, it's too late
God will bless my little boy
and Oppenheimer's deadly toy
golden angels we will be
for all eternity
Chorus:
Say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna die
say your prayers, say goodbye
to all our friends who're gonna cry
4. In All of You
Strophe:
I磎 the man of common sorrow
here today, there tomorrow
I like roaming and sinning
especially my dirty grinning
I磎 the legal terror
the living human horror
I磎 your bad reputation
your diabolic salvation
Chorus:
Strong is the man
unless I磎 running wild
and I磍l play with him
until I磍l make him believe like a litte child
God is great
this is nothing new
in fact this God is me
and I磎 in all of you
Bridge 1:
I see your faces,
but you don磘 see mine
you磛e never seen me,
but I磎 with you all the time
Life is cruel and life is real
I磎 your nerve so you can feel
my burning wounds and they will never heal
Strophe:
I磎 the man of secret vengeance
responsible for your bad conscience
I磎 the counterpart of everything you adore
I bet you磛e surely seen me before
I磎 the bad shameful habit
which I want you to inherit
your doubts do really make me proud
I bet you know me inside out
Chorus:
Strong is the man
unless I磎 running wild
and I磍l play with him
until I磍l make him believe like a litte child
God is great
this is nothing new
in fact this God is me
and I磎 in all of you
Bridge 2:
Feed me with questions
and I will reply
I will be listening
by day and by night
I磎 your dark secret
and to mortals well-known
listen to daddy
he tells you that you磖e not alone
Middle Part:
Selected
detected
affected
enter my cave
Infected
inflicted
addicted
I need my slave
Chorus:
Strong is the man
unless I磎 running wild
and I磍l play with him
until I磍l make him believe like a litte child
God is great
this is nothing new
in fact this God is me
and I磎 in all of you
Bridge 1:
I see your faces,
but you don磘 see mine
you磛e never seen me,
but I磎 with you all the time
Life is cruel and life is real
I磎 your nerve so you can feel
my burning wounds and they will never heal
5. Birth of a Nation
Chorus:
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know what's right and wrong
We do know where to go
we do know what we know
we do know what's going on
We do know what we see
we do know what will be
we do know what's coming on
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know where to come along
Strophe:
A nation is the sum of its people
Any comment so far?
Waiting for our coming-out
no man was born as a superstar
Bridge:
Switch on your mind
and you get brainwashed for free
let's make a hole in the wall
let's make some brand-new history
Unity is here
and unity will grow
there's nothing else to see
and nothing else to show
Chorus:
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know what's right and wrong
We do know where to go
we do know what we know
we do know what's going on
We do know what we see
we do know what will be
we do know what's coming on
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know where to come along
Strophe:
Well aware of the past
we're heading straight for the stars
time to take off the mask
time to show some hidden scars
Bridge:
As brothers in arms
we're gonna make this era last
we won't die too young
we won't live too fast
Unity is here
and unity will grow
there's nothing else to see
and nothing else to show
Chorus:
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know what's right and wrong
We do know where to go
we do know what we know
we do know what's going on
We do know what we see
we do know what will be
we do know what's coming on
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know where to come along
Middle Part:
There'll be light after dark
there'll be sun after rain
here we are and here we stay
yesterday's gone and far away
Hope dies at last
let's hope she doesn't die too fast
this is our way of salvation
this is the birth of a nation
This is the birth of a nation
Chorus:
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know what's right and wrong
We do know where to go
we do know what we know
we do know what's going on
We do know what we see
we do know what will be
we do know what's coming on
We do know what to do
we do know what to say
we do know where to come along
6. Unspoken
Strophe:
A mission is completed
their masterplan succeeded
free speech got deleted
our angels are defeated and dead
Imposing mass oppression
causes mass aggression
but muzzling is a fashion
and not one word is said about that
Chorus:
I磎 thinking of the still unspoken
I磎 whispering the still unspoken
the people磗 will is still unbroken
Keep listening to the still unspoken!
Strophe:
A minimal percentage
speaks another language
which is to my disadvantage
to what has just been said
My lack of comprehension
strenghtens my intention
of paying more attention
to what has been left out instead
Bridge:
All mouth and no action
to their own satisfaction
to their selfish delight
What a sorry sight!
No crime will be mindless
this is part of their business
this is part of their show
surprises come and go
Chorus:
I磎 thinking of the still unspoken
I磎 whispering the still unspoken
the people磗 will is still unbroken
Keep listening to the still unspoken!
Strophe:
Led by superstition
fed with great ambitions
mental malnutrition
some will laugh but more will cry
All is said and nothing
I磎 tired of discussing
to hell with those who磖e muzzling
they磖e out of reach and out of sight
Bridge:
All mouth and no action
to their own satisfaction
to their selfish delight
What a sorry sight!
No crime will be mindless
this is part of their business
this is part of their show
surprises come and go
Chorus:
I磎 thinking of the still unspoken
I磎 whispering the still unspoken
the people磗 will is still unbroken
Keep listening to the still unspoken!
7. Seat in Heaven
Strophe:
Quite a long time ago
I listened to a man on the radio
he was talking to me
to a man full of curiosity
He told me a story
about a man and his wife
they've been living the sixties
they've been living the stars & stripes
Bridge:
My wife called me a loser
frankly, she was right
I couldn't even accuse her
she opened my eyes
Strophe:
So how did they end?
Free fall - nothing left to mend
too little time in life
they'd spent to think about what's wrong or right
Bridge:
My wife called me a loser
frankly, she was right
I couldn't even accuse her
she opened my eyes
Chorus:
The more I took the more I paid
it's something I realized too late
time passes by and hair gets grey
my seat in heaven wasn't too far away
Strophe:
That man has taught me a lesson
and a coward got brave
although I did sometimes fail
it's something I will proudly take to my grave
Bridge:
My wife called me a loser
frankly, she was right
I couldn't even accuse her
she opened my eyes
Chorus:
The more I took the more I paid
it's something I realized too late
time passes by and hair gets grey
my seat in heaven wasn't too far away
I had a seat in heaven
time passes by
8. That Man in Flames
