1. Observer From Above
You always were sure who you are and what you'll be
How to get what you want
But sometimes there're days when you lose your goal
Ask yourself what's beyond
What's right what's wrong in life?
Sometimes there're many whys
Can you imagine there're someone who rolls the dice?
A deep dimension
Love and wisdom for your life
A weapon 'gainst the thing which cuts in like a knife
Justice for
- children of the observer
- from above
There're so many ways for a crisis to come
Where're the strength to fight it down?
D'you you really believe that you got a real chance?
If you're all on your own
When all in you's sorrow!
If you would only know
You're all leaves in the storm
Just by the grace of god that you fell safe and warm
His love is everywhere
So we can take it all
None would have to want - no one would have to fall
Chorus
If you would only know...
[Chorus]
2. Embrace (The Greatest Gift, Part 1)
A new truth's surrounding me
Reflecting what I used to be
I read the word and doubt it still
But it says the promise'll be fullfilled
I feel the change and don't know how
my deepest hope it starts to grow ...and grow
I roamed the world's philosophy
Searched for an aim to set me free
Could it be, the answer's here?
Right before my eyes so clear?
A new warmth, like an embrace,
Saves me from mind's endless maze ... endless maze
3. Times Of Tears
Hear my
bleeding heart...
The first to leave was the thunder
Long eight years were enough
Who can follow you?
The next one's for each a wonder
His words you can hear now
Try to understand
All success - what worth now?
Going on - tell me how
Perception seems so clear
But there's fear
[Chorus:]
The wall of sorrow keeps us asunder
So we got times of tears
No power to hold
No strength for a friend
Some hearts are in deep depression
Love's butterfly's dying
Is this divine proof?
The music is fading
slowly
If reality calls us
Heavy metal's end?
Reaching for a higher aim
We will not be the same
Our union - shivering
Shall we sing?
[Chorus]
Life's meaning - what worth now?
Going on - tell me how
Reaching for a higher aim
We will not be the same
4. Mourning
The morning has just begun
Good morning to everyone
I'm sorry I'm down again
Just tryin' to get up again
[Chorus:]
Can't you understand
Don't want to ruin your day
With my silly hate
Just can't understand
And I'll never accept
Those lives wasted in vain
What is it for?
Don't you get me wrong
This won't last for long
I just had a bad dream
Of a soldier's last scream
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
5. Guitarian
6. This World's Wisdom
You're desperately clutching at knowledge
Though blind belief always means bondage
Science won't solve life's big mysteries,
Don't you try to make me believe
With blind eyes and deaf ears we wander
Still you pretend to hear and see
[Chorus:]
This world's wisdom is
Is anot her try
Just a round'bout way
To mind's borderline
A round'bout way
A dead alley
Discovering explaining researching
Judging without understanding
One answer = a million new questions
And you say you're close to the truth
Science won't solve life's big mysteries
How long will you refuse to see?!
[Chorus]
Straight ahead
At the speed of this century
With no look to the left or right
You race on and on and on
No enlightened, you close your eyes
So fast you don't move at all
So free like a slave you are bound
What if you'd change your way of thinkin'
Allow yourself a different view
Then turn your head to what seems foolish
And take the hand stretched out for you!
[Chorus]
7. The One To Adore (bonus track)
Ever have been a strong man
Conscious of the will to survive
Make my life with my own hands
Sure there was no one to rule my life
I was to proud -
To believe in a higher leader of life - never!
[Chorus:]
But the truth came to me
Love was filling the heart in me showed
me the one to adore
Showed me things never seen before
He got the power of money
Was a rich man, so he felt so save
Ever dreaming of status of wealth
But this status locked him in a cage
Those iron bars -
Were created to keep all their slaves apart - from god
[Chorus:]
But the truth came to me
Love was filling the heart in me
Showed me the one to adore
Showed me things never seen before
She never felt religious
Magic's spirit was filling her mind
Evolution - her basic belief -
Destiny - they should see but they're blind
Lies all around
Enticement for all who don't care what's allowed
She says...
[Chorus]
Opened for me the door
Let me see I was blind
All my love for your light
8. No? No!
Ninetyone ninetyfive sixtyeight eighty eightyfour fiftyseven
sixtynine seventythree
fortysix fiftyeight six sixtytwo thirtyfive fortynine
fiftythree twentysix
[Chorus:]
Zero two seven one six four
count all the numbers
Zero two seven one six four
surrounded by numbers
Thiryeight fortytwo fifteen twentyseven thirtyone four sixteen twenty
minus seven five eleven minus sixteen minus sixteen minus four zero
twenty seven and so on
[Chorus]
9. All Effort's Aim (The Greatest Gift, Part 2)
I can not believe what I see -
What have I done
All those years of chasin' a dream -
I was so wrong
But I won't go betrayin' myself -
This is my new song...
[Chorus:]
Far too long
I reaped the harvest of my worthless seed
From a field
Full of lies
and discontent
Far too long
But it seems those days are gone
Lord I pray
After dark, now, is this dawn?!!
I guess, in different ways, we all try
To reach the same
To find a restin' place for our souls -
Is all effort's aim
But I wonder what this empty toil's for -
For it's all in vain...
[Chorus]
For it's all in vain
I won't return to where
I once have been
No
I will not return
To meaninglessness
Those days are gone
[Chorus]
10. Through Clouds Of Doubt
11. To Mind's Borderline (This World's Wisdom Reprise)
12. Ideology
Hello, do you remember me - ID DID NOT FORGET THOSE YEARS
You look as if you work too hard - OH, YES I GUESS THAT'S TRUE
What about the ideals you had in '68
To me it looks like you are now what you were fighting.
You were fighting then
[Chorus:]
It is ideological - all thoughts you might have
The pictures in your mind
Caused by social history
I CHANGED MY LIFE AND SETTLED DOWN
IT'S RESTFUL, PLEASANT, WELL TO ME IT'S OKAY, YOU SEE -
My friends live the same way
It must be the influence of society
That creates successfully
A new dictated ideology
[Chorus:]
It is ideological - all thoughts you might have
The pictures in your mind
Caused by social history
Consciousness - the only way to understand
All my thoughts - Ideology
And your thoughts - Ideology
My ideals - Ideology
No free will - Ideology
But in the past - Ideology
And what does last - Ideology
To understand life and men - is there a hope?
[Chorus]
13. Masquerade
I Masquerade
I'm not me
You're not you
What if I let
You see through
...my disguise
Would you leave
Would you stay
At my side
Or run away
...away from me
Beyond all pretence
What else would remain
Whatever you'd find
Would you stay the same
Let us stop
This masquerade
This poisoned game
Before it's too late
...to be true
II Dawn
No more hiding pain in shade
No more wearing a masquerade
