1. Clown In The Mirror
Our circus closed, and the midnight ghost,
Comin' out as light's gone down.
Old and tired clown, no one is around,
Staring at the mirror - now listen...
Oh, show must go one,
Lived in the crowd, dyin' all alone...
Clown in the mirror - glitter and scars.
Here's the pleasure and pain looks as one...
Clown in the mirror - touchin' the stars,
Flyin' in dreams to the sun...
What a mask can say?
Cry the night away!
Askin' mirror - "tell me how long?"...
Wrigglin' all those years, through the laugher'n'tears,
Don't believe in hearts of stone...
Oh, show must go on,
Lived in the crowd, dyin' all alone...
Clown in the mirror, glitter and scars.
Here's pleasure and pain looks as one...
Clown in the mirror touchin' the stars,
Flyin' in dreams to the sun...
But the sun will rise, evil took the prize,
Something will remind you...
Sign of disgrace - this paint on your face...
2. Stranded (acoustic version)
I see a face in the night,
Why do I feel I'm in danger?
Image of me get pushed to the side,
Just by the eyes of the stranger.
Anyway, all the faces I've seen,
Over and over again,
Everytime, when the sun goes down,
Act the same - just the same.
Stranded - so far away from home,
Stranded - I've made, it happen all alone.
Stranded - so far away from home,
Stranded - in the eyes of the storm...
(it's written all across the wall)
Open it up, turn it up - wild!
Can you just give me a reason?
Livin' it up, give it up, walkin' up blind -
Leavin' yourself in a prison.
Anyway, all the places I've been.
Over and over again,
Everytime, when the lights goin' down,
Looks the same - over and over again.
Keep your head above the ground -
Trouble wants you to drown.
Don't get pushed and kicked around,
Don't let them put you down.
Someone's like to see you fall -
Tear the sucker down!
Let the whole world crash and burn -
Keep your head above the ground.
3. Land Of Broken Hearts (acoustic version)
See a thousand bodies crackin'n'fallin' back,
Rows of loaded weapon ready to attack.
Sharp pain screams like hell in a victim's eyes.
Wanna say to everyone - promises were lies...
And here we go again, back to back,
Round and round,
And here we go again, back to back,
One shot, buddy, and you're hitting the ground...
Land of broken hearts.
One more shot and another friend's gone.
Land of broken hearts,
Pray to your god, cos' the killing's begun.
See a million faces - can you let it go?
Try to stop this bloody rain paintin' on the snow.
Blood, death - all around - livin' on the edge,
Look smashed flesh -
And bones prayin' for revenge.
4. Age Gone Wild (acoustic version)
All I need is to turn the page,
I can see a man - he's twice my age.
Proud face, a lot of scars,
I can see a shadow of the bars...
Hold on - can you feel the sorrow,
Hold on - he won't see tomorrow...
Yes, he was proud as hell to the end of the line,
So he's got a story to tell of the age gone wild.
The magic and the spell, an eye for an eye,
Now, he's got a story to tell of the age gone wild...
Just a kid but he was told,
He will be the one to rule the world.
Such a shame - with speed of light,
He become a beggar over over night.
5. Kingdom Dark (acoustic version)
Run, you better run as far as you can,
Why - I'm gonna die and nobody cares.
Stop wastin' my time, I'm gonna fly high,
You'll find out, the way to survive -
Follow the light tonight!
Watch your steps, it's Kingdom Dark,
There is fear behind your back.
Help me out or let me in,
Watch me die for someone's sin.
Out, somebody shouts, but who - I can't see,
Age, blesses to the rage, callin' for me...
6. Bad Luck
Bad luck-over and over again
Bad luck
bad luck-yeah
Working so hard-make me feel I've comitted a crime
I wanna make it so big-it's just a matter of time
Foolin' around, now my time is running out
I want my feel back on the ground
I'm down-and my chance so low
One for the money? two for a show
Why troubles-comin' to stay
Bad luck-bad luck all the way
I'm just gettin' so tired of fightin the wall
Hey! Watchin' a big shot passing the ball
Nothing to loose, I'm in hell on pleasure cruise
Who gives a shit which way I choose-nobody moves!
I'm down-and my chance so low
One for the money? two for a show
Bad luck-such a heavy load
Ain't gonna miss it goin' down the road
Sky high-but it's never enough
Hey, little angel, kick that stuff
Why troubles-comin' to stay
Bad luck-bad luck all the way
