1. Sudden Recall
Sometimes I feel like I’m somebody else
There’s so much that I ignored about myself
All of the faces I see
Look so familiar to me
I'm so confused, I wish I could break through
Falling again in a sudden recall
I think I’ve been here before
I think I know you all
Memories I borrowed from another life
Are they for real or is it my mind?
The mirror’s on the floor
It’s broken down to pieces
There’s someone I don’t know
In my reminiscence
[chorus]
[solo]
The mirror’s on the floor
It’s broken down to pieces
There’s someone I don’t know
In my reminiscence
[chorus]
Sudden recall
2. In The Roar Of Ecstasy
Powerful as God, I’m the son of History
Of days and years, of darkness and time
I have in me the essence, the elixyr
But look into my dreams, don’t close your mind
When all ends, it’s not shock to me at all
I keep unveiling old stories from my past
It is the prison of existence
A destiny with no end
My soul is shut right there
In the roar of ecstasy still I can feel
The sound of silence rumbling with such energy
Intoxicated by time, I have counted all the years
My temple’s the calendar before life began
You want to learn about life, I’ll show you what eternity is
Now that I’m opening your dreams, don’t close your mind
You never feel, you never see the cold embrace of the night
You’re living for nothing, cause the future is approaching you
You’re imprisoned by your hopes
[solo]
When all ends, it’s not shock to me at all
I keep unveiling old stories from my past
It is the prison of existence
A destiny with no end
My soul is shut right there
A destiny I can’t reach
Trying to escape from time
[chorus]
3. Pushed By The Waves
Born in a faraway land
Brought up with anger and fear
I was a stranger there, and so am I here
I’m coming to your home
Like you did long ago
But take look at me, I was like you
I’m your nightmare
Pushed by the waves, how long will it take
To get to the sands of a strange land
Thunder and rain won’t keep me away
Pushed by the wind and the waves
I know I’m scaring you
But what did you think I would do?
I crossed the ocean now, there’s no turning back
A body’s washed ashore
You say it’s not your war
But take a look at him, he was like you
He’s your nightmare
[chorus & solo]
I got no place on my own, my world is crumbling down
But all that goes around, comes around
I’m coming to your home
Like you did long ago
But take look at me, I was like you
I’m your nightmare
[chorus]
Pushed by the waves, I’ll make it someday
Pushed by the waves, I’m on my way
Thunder and rain won’t keep me away
Pushed by the wind and the waves
4. Underground
Underground, trying to find my way home
Guiding stars are all gone
I’m in this all alone
Lights flashing past me
Where do the people go?
My heart is buried under tons of concrete
My heart was torn by the steel
All those lights... Who took my days and nights?
Guess I won’t see you again
I got lost in the crowd
Going underground
I got lost in the crowd, oh my
My own reflection in black
Erratic lines that never seem to end
It's all I see through the glass
Trying to avoid all the stares
How does it feel like being lost in the crowd?
I got lost in the crowd
Going underground
I got lost in the crowd
Going underground
Overwhelmed by the sorrow
Going underground
I got lost in the crowd
Going underground
Tell me why I am here
Knocking at your door at midnight
When the crowd disappears
There’s only you and me alone
[solo]
Remember the time when the city was ours
Under cover of the night, emerging to life
Those days are gone, those days are gone
[chorus]
Going underground, I’m going down
Lost in the crowd, oh my
Where do all the people go?
5. Like a Tumbleweed
It’s 7:00 in the morning, I woke in a cloud
Everything is upside down
I don’t know why I do all the things I do
I just can’t help it baby
It may be wrong, but feels so good
I’m running away, got no place to stay
I don’t know what lies ahead
Got nothing, I must move on until
I find my way
Every day I hear the call of the unknown
It's not easy to ignore
And if it tastes good I’ll ask for more
How could I think about a home
That’s the way I’ll always be
Rolling like a tumbleweed
Running wild, easy and free
Rolling like a tumbleweed
Keep your eyes wide open, try to seize the day
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I can't figure out the mess I left behind
I found some trouble there
I know it’s trouble what I’ll find
[bridge & chorus]
[solo]
[chorus]
6. A Brand New Day
Skies are grey, but don’t you fade away
Skies are grey, but don’t you fade away
Got no time for your regrets
‘Cause today’s a brand new day
Together we walked the winding road
Innocence was all we had
We laughed at our empty hands
The sun would shine so bright and high
Yeah nothing seemed to bring us down
But suddenly we changed our minds
And then the world would frighten us
It’s a brand new day
So don’t you fade away
You gotta hold on, hold on
It’s a brand new day
But you’re still so far away
You say you’ve been betrayed a thousand times
That there’s no one who you can trust
That everything you loved is lost
After all, we’re lonely like a winter star
You gotta shine on while everything is falling apart
[solo][bridge & chorus]
Times may have changed, but we’re still the same
We all have something to forget
[bridge & chorus]
Times may have changed, but we’re still the same
We all have something to forget
Times may have changed, but we’re still the same
We all have something to regret
7. Words And Stone
Fearful and distant they stand
Keeping the secrets of men
Trying so hard to conceal,
With all of their beauty, our vanity
Listen to the commandments
The angry voices
As they thunder across the hall
Words that fill the air
Words that soon will go up in smoke, yeah
Talking about light you cast a long shadow instead
And the candle still burns
Tell me what you're gonna do when smoke clears
‘Cause it’s only words and stone
Promising hopes and new life
Teasing the fears of my mind
[solo]
Losing my faith, hesitating at the gate
Eyes enquirying me, and the guilt won't go away
I never carried a cross
I never asked for a crown of thorns
Words fill the air, words that go up in smoke
Stones will remain, they’ll last till no one recalls
Listen to the commandments as they thunder across the hall
It’s only words, nothing but words and stone
8. Quicksand Love
Why do I keep trying to make you mine
You’ve been so untrue, I’m wasting my time with you
I’m getting sick, you’re just enjoying it
Well things could be so easy
But that’s the way you want it
I never thought you’d be so cruel
And still look so cool
Why don’t you let me go?
I can’t go on
Save me, girl I think I’m going down
In your wicked quicksand love
Save me, baby one more time around
From your wicked quicksand love
Drag me down, turn me inside out
Push me to the edge, ‘cause got no self respect
What else could I do? I’ve become your fool
Well things could be so easy
But that’s the way you want it
[bridge & chorus]
[solo]
Now you’re whispering in my ear
Hissing like the Eden snake
Things I don’t want to hear
Slowly tying around my neck
Tied and gagged I twist and turn
And fight against my fate
Your’re taking me away
I black out wondering how
I could have been so blind
Now I know that you’ll never be mine
[bridge & chorus]
9. Disbelief (Set Me Free)
This is the end, I’m here on my own
I’m trying to understand what’s been going on
First you asked me in, then you kicked me out
And now you want me around
I’m faking every day
I’m trying to feel okay
But the doubt still remains
I payed all the dues, that’s all I got
The ashes are scattered, the echo will son die off
So I walk the streets at night
When I cannot get things right
We hurt each other every time
And pretend to be just fine
And the rain keeps falling on
But it doesn’t make me feel so cold
I just need a word from you
Set me free, free from disbelief
Set me free, you know I need to believe
It was a crazy game we played
We were taking things too far
We didn’t know what was at stake
When we gave our hearts away
First you asked me in...
[solo]
And you know I can’t go on
With no reason to believe
How am I supposed to live
If I can’t believe in you
[bridge & chorus]
First you asked me in....
10. Lord and Master
Cross lying off from your list of priorities
It ain’t too late yet
Hear the voice inside you
Not what the others say
You soul will grow free like a wild flower
You’ll fly effortlessly as the birds do
Like going back to the prime of creation and true life
There, beyond the unknown
Look and you will find
The utmost essence of humankind
There, millions of promises lie
If you are your Lord and Master
You’ll enjoy peace and abundance
In your energy field
Look for your own equilibrium,
Harmony and happiness
Go deep into the thick forest of your own knowledge
On the shores of wisdom lake, and stay there
You’ll be like stardust spinning and dancing
In the whirls of the Infinite
Feeding with wisdom the embryonic goddess
Deep, deep in your being
Lord, Lord and Master
Look and you will find
The utmost essence of humankind
There, millions of promises lie
If you are your Lord and Master
[solo]
You’ll find, beyond the unknown,
Amongst millions of promises,
Your utmost essentials
There, like a voyager
You’ll be your own Lord and Master
11. Castaway Of The Skies
Is man a cosmic castaway,
A passing guest on the Earth? Mystery Man
He never fit into this world
Changing it all at his will
Fire, heat, light
Does it come from where nature has intelligence?
Why does he believe in superior beings?
Light reigned all over the Earth
When everything stopped
To allow the landing of a new race
That bare of all took the land
Their great needs took them all
In few generations everywhere, up-down the poles
Degrading mountains, rivers and seas
Never losing their feelings for the gods that once landed
And started the human race
Mystery Man
[solo]
[chorus]
