1. Don't Say A Word (edit)
I am your poison candygram
The love that's meant to fade away
(Vade retro, alter ego)
Move aside I'm choking on this life
I think I tolerate your hate
As long as you're afraid
All I wanted was to be with you and suffer every day...
Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn
Mortally wounded, feeling sheltered me
Once again my shadow will enter your life
Could I let you wait out the night
Mother always said: "My son, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what, Now, sit watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live but what your morals say"
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
It won't be long now love, like mist I slowly fill the room
I place a black candle on your chest
The path of night its manifest
I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase
It wasn't me who ran away, you made me stray...
Open your blue eyes tell me that you love me, whore
Make me believe it, oh I know you lie
Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel why...
Settling the score, we pass the twilight
Mother always said: "My son, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what, Now, sit watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live but what your morals say"
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
Strawberry blonde your stranglehold
on my heart is bound to end
I suppose, life sometimes
it doesn't go the way it was meant.
Though you never were a believer
I assure you, I won't die before you.
You read the book now,
the part "ashes to ashes, dust to dust"
Closing your eyes, don't ever say you love me, whore
You never meant a word, I know you lied
When there is life there is despair, indudge me now and stay alive this night...
I promise you the end before the first light arrives...
Mother always said: "My son, do the noble thing..."
You have to finish what you started, no matter what, Now, sit watch and learn...
"It's not how long you live but what your morals say"
Cannot keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word... don't say a word
2. Ain't Your Fairytale
The ones who seek justice,
Will pray for it all their lives...
They can and they will skin us all one day...
oh, can you hear their cries.
As far as the men can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt, my young ones...
I have always known the storm would come...
Listen now my young ones...
This is not a story I tell
of midnight, moon and sun...
Are you ready to walk the forbidden road?
Learn again what we tried to forget?
The dark can now take over you
We had a common past, an ancient bond
That people once broke
We would only take what we need,
They would harvest our weak,
But they hunted us all
We ended the last of theme,
Thus far ten lifetimes ago
In hopes of healing the sore,
But the war still went on
Preying for the moon
Hiding for the day
This might be our last times
I ain't gonna see you taken away
Heading for the dawn
of our way of life
You're welcome to give it your best try...
Look me in the eyes oh wolves
This ain't your fairy tale...
It took us many years to teach them
How to cry wolf
We made the people serve the purpose
Those ignorant fools... my young ones!
Teachs the ones below you something you have learned
And learn from the ones above you
Fear is your deepest wisdom
For these last days...
Preying for the moon
Hiding for the day
This might be our last times
I ain't gonna see you taken away
Heading for the dawn
of our way of life
You're welcome to give it your best try...
Look me in the eyes oh wolves
This ain't your fairy tale...
The ones who seek justice,
Will pray for it all their lives...
They can and they will skin us all one day...
oh, can you hear their cries.
As far as the men can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt, my young ones,
the pack they have always feared is back.
On your last day, remember, we never die
death does not exist for us
They don't fear the wolf, but the wild within
No glory to the way this must end
This is a story I told
Unfolding before you
Preying for the moon
Hiding for the day
This might be our last times
I ain't gonna see you taken away
Heading for the dawn
of our way of life
You're welcome to give it your best try...
Look me in the eyes oh wolves
This ain't your fairy tale...
The ones who seek justice,
Will pray for it all their lives...
They can and they will skin us all one day...
oh, can you hear their cries.
As far as the men can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt, my young ones,
the pack they have always feared is back.
3. World In My Eyes (Depeche Mode cover)
Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move
You just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes
I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
We won't need a map, believe me
Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is
Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips
All the islands in the ocean
All the heaven's in the motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is
Let me show you the world in my eyes
4. Two Minds, One Soul (Vanishing Point cover)
I feel emotions are denied
I hide through day to welcome night
Just to get away from you
Is it me that you've deceived
Now you drown in make believe
I'm so far away from you
I know you can't see my face
I know you won't change
The way your outlook is to life
The way you tend to speak my mind
Many words I could describe
You'll never know
I won't change
Won't listen to those empty words again
Past is shadows, covered cold
Such indecision you have two
minds in one soul
I could not see the shades of light
You gave into the empty lies
You could never face the truth
Blind before the facts you've known
The picture now has turned to stone
You have two minds in one soul
