1. The Comediants
Bodies are fighting in the dark
For a long lost part
Playing a death game
They've got no fear for their veins
Gloomy faces are falling apart
They've lost their heart
They've losing trace
Of their tie of their space
These are the comedians
Playing the game of life
Got nothing to gain
Didn't start in time
All waiting for the train
Think it's in vain
But dreams are not so worth
So fall back to earth
Comedians were left at the station
A long time ago
Still don't believe in heaven
Like a thousand years before
You out there staring at me
Thinking I'm funny
But look at yourself
You may no be just someone else
These are the comedians
Playing the game of life
Got nothing to gain
They just pretend they're still alive
These are the comedians
Playing the game of life
Got nothing to gain
Didn't start in time
All waiting for the train
Think it's in vain
But dreams are not so worth
So fall back to earth... earth... earth... earth...
2. Disillusions
Another friend had gone away
There is no place I'd like to stay
Another girlfriend lost again
I just can't suffer this pain
I can feel deep inside
There's something wrong with me
I think I know what it is
But nobody else can see
Born in the wrong time
And in the wrong place too
There's nothing I like in this world
And nothing I like to do
I'm not turning crazy
I only see what is bad
Because I'm a realistic
I'm not some kind of mad
Disillusions growing day by day
No reason to be alive
Disillusion there is no escape from them
In this wrong place and time
My soul is empty, my life is in vain
I only see eyes looking at me, as if I was insane
Disillusions growing day by day
No reason to be alive
Disillusion there is no escape from them
In this wrong place and time
3. March To Death
Everyday I think those same fucking shits
Trying to find out why mankind exists
But everyday the answers are the same
Answers that for me nothing explain
Running from place to place
Always the same disguise
I fight for my life without a reason
Breathing polluted air
Eating garbage anywhere
I feed my march to death
Marching yo death
Locked in a life with no sense
Where all dreams belong to the past
My fate it's only one... March to death
Running from place to place
Always the same disguise
I fight for my life without a reason
Breathing polluted air
Eating garbage anywhere
I feed my march to death
Running from place to place
Always the same disguise
I fight for my life without a reason
Breathing polluted air
Eating garbage anywhere
I feed my march to death
4. Thoughts
Day after day this weird sensation
Come and make me think in a different way
It's like thinking without thinking
Just letting thoughts flow away
Old passions and mistakes
Future visions, thoughts that awake
Past and future in a fusion of time
All this confusion invading my mind
Trapped in my thoughts
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Trapped in my mind
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Where there's no time
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Trapped in my mind
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Where there's no time
Fears that I try to fight
Dreams that come to light
Seems like a self therapy
Keeping me away from lunacy
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Trapped in my mind
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Where there's no time
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Trapped in my mind
Thoughts, thoughts, trapped in my thoughts
Where there's no time... time
Misteries of the unconscious
Builders of a personality
Reflections of a life
What I hear and what I see
5. The Last Child
Remember when you look at the sky
Seeing the clouds passing by
The sun so bright in your eyes
What a beautiful sight
We see this misery
Green grass among the earth
Birds singing soft melodies
Memories of a happiness
That's no longer reality
Waiting till the day when nature wins
Remembering all of your sins
You are watching death unfold
You are the last child in this world
Facing now a new life
No shining but fury eyes
Hating all "the enemies"
Without knowing why
They put a gun in your hands
With orders to kill
You're a fighter in a war
That is setting your time to be killed
Waiting till the day when nature wins
Remembering all of your sins
You are watching death unfold
You are the last child in this world
Waiting till the day when nature wins
Remembering all of your sins
You are watching death unfold
You are the last child in this world
6. Try Again
When everyday life starts to get you down
And your problems seem to many
When your job is shit and the rent is sue
And you're down to your last penny
Where do you go? Who do you count on?
When there's no time left to hide
When your parents don't like it and they told you so
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
Now I'm not here to preach
Or tell you the way you got to live
Just stop and think about what you want
And what you want to give
God Dammit life is what we're here for
Not to watch fucking TV
But if that's where you think the answer is
Then bother get away from me
Engaged forced to "fight"
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
Now there's no easy answers
But here's my final advise to you
Take control of your life man
Work hard follow thru
And if a friend is travelling a rocky road
Then help him on this way
Tell him that he's got to try again
And try harder everyday
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
I look at you - And I know what to do
You got get up in the morning and try again
Not tomorrow, do it today
Young or old, it don't matter man
Don't let your life slip away
You got to take a chance, push yourself
Stand up for what you know it's right
Don't take no shit from anyone
Let'em know that you're ready to fight
Right soldiers for this "fight"
7. In The Beginning
It's just a matter of attitude
What I'm going to talk about
You may not believe it
But you have the right to doubt
You think you are a made man
Who knows the mighty truth
Who reached what so many
Never reached in their youth
You spread garbage on the street
You break bottles on the ground
Thinking you already know
All that in life can be found
You think you are a made man
Who knows the mighty truth
Who reached what so many
Never reached in their youth
I'm not here to preach on you
Or tell you what things to do
I just try to make you understand
There's so many things to live for... "man"
In the beginning I am
Trying just to be a better man
In the beginning I am
See what you are and take a stand
Doesn's matter if you're young
Not even if you're old
You'll never but never know
All that's going in this world
In... the... beginning... I... am
From this you'll reach a better day
From a child to man you'll find the way
Seeing how much we can do
To live a life that's passing through you
You'll see to many times
Different truths in just one life
I'm not here to preach on you
Or tell you what things to do
I just try to make you understand
There's so many things to live for... "man"
In the beginning I am
Trying just to be a better man
In the beginning I am
See what you are and take a stand
8. Out Of This World
When I look into people
They're looking into me
How hard I try
I cannot set free
I close down in myself
That's my protection
But day after day
Grows this bloody tension
Trying to get a way out
Trying just to be "sain"
I only see my room
To release all this pain... all this pain
Locked in my room
Out of this world
I face myself
Getting in control
Sorrow... breaks... and life will... it takes
So I feel this emotions so deep
Refuted from the outside world
And I close down in my room
Trying to get in control... control
And so I've the time
In my own life
Where things that come and go
Begin just passing me by... passing me by
Locked in my room
Out of this world
I face myself
Getting in control
Sorrow... breaks... and life will... it takes
9. Behind The Wall
Walking in this world of secrets
You grow inside
Awakening through the years you live
To the powers of mind
So many things are said
Of this maze of misery
The light we hold inside
But we cannot see
Search your truth
Behind the wall
Search your truth
Behind the wall
From the Budas of Nepal
Through the oriental seas
"Mighty stories" are told
Things "out of reality"
Self control they all say
Of your spirit of your mind
The step for us to reach
A different time
Search your truth
Behind the wall
Search your truth
Behind the wall
So awake begin to realise
That you just know a tiny part of your mind
Close your eyes send yourself into yourself
Seek inside and maybe you will find
The truth of mind... mind
But:
Through the years of your life
Other things you have earned
Pre-conditions on your mind
"Mighty truths" that you have learned
Of your spirit of your mind
So, if you want to find
Things that are behind this prision
You must climb this wall we've built
This so called "Wall of reason"
Search your truth
Behind the wall
Search your truth
Behind the wall
