1. Paper Blood
In our shop, as you can see,
You'd be a man you wanna be.
Unhappy with the way it goes?
Just buy another life.
And our prices...who can beat?
Here's royal flesh and cannot meat
You name it - my associate
Is sharpening her knife...
Please take a peek inside, tell me how it feels like
When you're spilling paper blood
In the blaze of glory
Paper blood - on the holy ground
Paper blood - neverending story...
Paper blood makes the world go round and round.
We've got it covered to the tee...
Another wife? Just take a brief:
Look at this fine selection of those bitches from the East
We're selling friends, we're selling cars,
A recent show with superstars,
A child, a war, a heart, a soul -
It's all to make you pleased...right!
Nothing is too strange (when we are in this price range)
You're wasting paper blood
In the blaze of glory
Paper blood - on the holy ground
Paper blood - neverending story...
Paper blood can buy a tiny crown
For this sad and weary clown,
So he can smile and take a look around
Across his kingdom - fake as it could be
(And what's wrong with that?)
Where tears of joy're impossible to see
(What do we need them for?)
Where heartfelt laughter's not what you will hear
(And so what?)
Enough of that, 'coz it's my biggest fear.
2. Time
I keep runnin' 'round in circles
I keep walkin' in the dark
I keep tryin' to wash away the devil's mark
I have my reasons to remember
I have my reasons to forget
I have my reasons to eject a safety net
'Coz we'll all fall down on the cold, cold ground
Don't you turn around - who's crime?
Time - I'm runnin' out of
Time - I've wasted all my
Time - I'm gonna need some
I'm runnin' out of time
I'm gonna finish off confusions
I'm gonna leave it all for good
I'm gonna quit bein' left misunderstood
I'm gettin' rid of my illusions
I'm gettin' tired of the crowd
I'm gettin' out, I'm checkin' out, I'm gettin' out
'Coz we'll all fall down on the cold, cold ground
Don't you turn around - who's crime?
Time - I'm runnin' out of
Time - I've wasted all my
Time - I'm gonna need some
I'm runnin' out of time
3. The Mission
“Move along it takes too long,you`re holding back the line!”
I tell you –we`ve been waiting here forever
“Go ahead,don`t worry-yet-`coz everything is fine”
A brand new world for us-it`s now or never
We`ll change the rules for those native fools
Hail intervention-we`re under one flag
`coz we are on the mission and we`ll never go back
Now we`re on the mission-the average man
Is down on his knees,so he won`t understand
Above the suspicion and fear of the law
we do what we do what it takes to continue the war
The mission`s right over your head
“It`s not what you think”-as it`s always been said
No visable victims-we`re very discrete
There`s no turning back `til the day when the mission`s complete
“Hurry up and check the map,there must be something left”
Nobody`s getting rich by moving slower
“Torch their towns,forget the clowns accusing us in theft”
Remember how it works-we`re taking over!
It could be strange and will need some changes,so...
Hail intervention-we`re under one flag
`coz we are on the mission and we`ll never go back
4. Never Give Up
It's over now... I feel my sadness fades away
Wonder how we could survive and take it through another day?
I'd say chances are few - but they are out there,
Start something new - right now and right here
Look, I'm telling you...
We'll never give up, we'll never give in
Wherever this road's gonna lead us
We'll never give up, we're playin' to win
And heading right up to the top
We'll never give up, we'll never retreat
Whatever out there's gonna hit us
We'll never give up, we'll land on our feet
We'll make it come right in the end -
We'll never give up.
Seconds fly as if the're bullets. Could it be
Worth a try to cut them loose and let some peace come sown on me?
I see chances are few but the are out there,
Waiting for you to decide
To start something new - right now and right here -
To change your life tonight.
5. Can't Let Go
Kind of faraway country, million miles from our homes
Have no reason to be here - now, see how it goes
Sharing "wisdom and progress", but we're armed to the teeth
Escalating this madness - tell me, why can't we leave?
'Coz we can't let go - no, we can't let go
Can't let go - we just can't let go - ever
Every inch of their country we're proclaiming as free
'Til the last of the natives have no places to be
Educating with fire, liberating with steel
Pushing repatriation - do we care how they feel?
'Coz we can't let go - no, we can't let go
Can't let go - we just can't let go
We're taking over 'coz we
Can't let go - and never ever will
Can't let go - it's just the way we're build
The only thing we know - until the final toll -
We'll never ever let go
6. Last Goodbye
Crime is done, I'm alone in the night
There's no one to save and there's no one to fight
Now you're gone and I'm just looking around
Chasin' the shadows and traces in the sky, on the ground
I pray for a miracle
Father, don't take him away
Rise up for a miracle
Save him or don't let me stay
Such a shame now you're out of my reach
And it hurts, I don't know should I curse, should I preach?
Play the game - put a gun to your head
Smile - give me a shot - pull the trigger - you're dead
Goin' down, you're goin' down all the way
Down to the needle park
Goin' down, you're goin' down like a little child
Lost in the dark
Last, last goodbye - you'll take yours and I'll take mine
Dane around the candle like a butterfly
Can you tell me why?
Last, last goodbye - bitter as a silent cry
Blowin' out the chance to do a second try
Just another try
Day by day crossin' oceans of pain
God I wish I could stop this old runaway train
Far away like a shadow - a ghost
Now the magic is gone and the spirit is lost
Goin' down, you're goin' down all the way
Down to the needle park
Goin' down, you're goin' down like a little child
Lost in the dark
Last, last goodbye - you'll take yours and I'll take mine
Dane around the candle like a butterfly
Can you tell me why?
Last, last goodbye - bitter as a silent cry
Blowin' out the chance to do a second try
Just another try
7. Follow Me
If pictures could talk there’d be too many voices
If sorrow could scream I’d be deaf in a day
I beg my memories to slowly fade away
Too many voices
If pain could’ve been seen there’d be too many faces
wherever I’d go – I’d rather be blind
And in the darkest night I’d loose my guiding light
but you I’ll find even if I’m blind
Follow me – but I don’t know where I’m going
Follow me down the road to something new
Follow me – there’s no other way of knowing
what your heart is telling you
I’m planting my hopes and I harvest illusions
year after year – understood by a few
Sometimes it seems like I’m getting through to you
but it’s just an illusion
8. Cold City Lights
In the heat of night neon lights are so bright
I don’t know where the hell they are leading me
So I walk like I’m blind, feel I’m loosing my mind
Are you sure it is how it’s supposed to be?
No, but it seems to me I’m falling
down to the same old ground again
Cold City Lights all over you
Cold City’s playing games with you
Cold City Lights make sure that nothing is what it seems
Cold City Lights you’ve got to know
Cold City’ll never let you go
Cold City Lights all over land of the broken dreams
Everybody looks down, what is wrong with this town?
Every piece of it’s caught in a web of fear
In the middle of the crowd you can scream, you can shout
I’m afraid there’s noone that’ll ever hear you
and it seems to me you’re falling
down to the same old ground again
Voices inside my head playing games and it sounds like a war
I’d pretend to be dead – no, no more
9. Martial Arts
10. Surrender
“Open up the window”-said the light-“See into another world”
Is it only a dream?
Voices sound familiar in the night...could this be reality?
Or is it all in my mind?
Why me? Could I just be “The One”? Or have I come undone?
Head in through the door and start to run straight into another life,
dear old friends beside me
Never had a dream that`s so surreal-could this be the end for me?
Am I losing my mind?
Still...I just stay. Can`t run away-there`s a price to pay
Look into the sky thru the naked eye, in a flash of light – surrender
Losing everything,soldiers march and sing. Distant bells will ring – surrender
Let the children cry-earth will breath a sigh in a blaze of light – surrender
They`re taking everything. Demons dance and sing when the chimes will ring
The end is here
“Open up the window”-said the light-“Welcome to another world”
Dear old friends beside me
Voices so familiar every night - could this be reality?
Am I losing my mind?
11. Running Wild
I am just a number, I don't know my name
Unknown faces - a part of the game
Out in the desert the madness begins
Who's talking mercy? We're playin' to win
Better run around, there's no easy way out
If you you loose - take the stand
So do whatever you can- again and again
Running wild like creatures of the night
We're born to run - we never trust the light
Running wild, we're so afraid to try
We're all alone and everyone is blind
Running wild.
You'll start the fire and livin' on a lie
Rats get fat while good men die
They got you running to follow the track
You'll face the trouble with fear on your back
12. Far Away
In the misty morning after the darkest night
I feel the heat, I do, and I remember
Promises are broken now when you're gone
Don't turn me down
I'm lost and I surrender
Give me just a sign
Help to cross the line
We'll turn back time and start again
Far away - I can hear you're callin'
Far away - callin' up my name
Far away - and the tears are fallin'
Far away - no one is to blame
Some feelings won't come easy,
you have to hit them hard
You've burned the bridge and
I fell in a sea of sorrow
Can you hear my prayer,
just bring back yesterday
I feel the pain, it makes me hate tomorrow
Take me for a while
Just to make me smile
I wish I'll never ever cry again
Far away - I can hear you're callin'
Far away - callin' up my name
Far away - and the tears are fallin'
Far away - no one is to blame
13. Lies
Feels like I’m covered in lies
so turn off the light, I’m closing my eyes
Flying back – ages ago
Curtain is down and I’m ready to go
back to the day when I looken into your eyes
Straight to your heart – when I knew
you’ve been telling me lies
Even the day when we met
I’ll always recall with the deepest regret
Tell me what keeps you awake:
Talk of the angel or soul of the snake?
How can you live in your shadow from within
Hiding away from the light in the river of sin?
Lies, neverinding lies, I see it in your eyes
Did you stop believing ?
Lies always cold as ice, even heaven cries
for you, but not forgiving
Lies – the way to paradise you’re gonna pay the price
on the field of growing lies
Neverending lies need a sacrifice –
you’re the one who’s going down
Dealing with you on my own
Loosing my faith so I have to be strong
crossing the sea of mistrust while
looking for gold which you covered with dust
14. Wasted Time
You're out huntin' if I am the prize - so roll the ball
I'm like a mad dog, keep fightin' - back against the wall
Come on I'll show you the world you've never seen
Come on I'll teach you good fight is when you win
(So listen up)
Wasted time - Like a poison in my wine, I call it...
The perfect crime - Like a bullet in the back, it search you
Time is runnin' out it hurts you
Goin' down because of wasted time
I'll keep on tryin - NO ONE ALLOWED - I'm out too late
See loosers cyrin' - the sort of thing I use to hate.
15. Message To God
The one who's watching my shoulder - get a life
I see your arms are nailed to the cross but your eyes are so alive
I never thought you're lying but now it's turned around
So many hearts are dying - you've let them down
over and over again
Can't reach you, can't meet you
I gave you everything I've got
You hear me, don't leave me
It's my message to you, God
Can't see you, can't feel you
I've lost just everything I've got
Forget me, you've left me
It's my message to you, God
We're busy burning witches the way we've learned from you
We're good at killing creatures, so teach us something new, come on!
One of your own creations is kind of hard to understand
You, freak of nature - just tell me why did you create us man?
Traces on the floor, I can't hear the door closing me
right inside my dream, it's a sign from him - let me be
Sunrise through the dust - future in the past chasing me
Shadows on the wall, voices down the halls calling me
over and over again
