1. Frozen Tears
Verse: Steal your food
Steal your clothes
Eat your bread from a dirty shirt
You feel sad for the poor
But you ignore me
Bridge: and the lord gives and he takes
Don’t we all agree
Have you thought of it this way?
Even you must stop and think
THINK, take a minute and just THINK
Chorus. Even clouds cry sometimes
Even seas can calm down
Pick up those frozen tears
You’ll need them
Think of Life as it was before
Verse: Spit on me
I won’t mind
Cause you know that I’ve lost my pride
You see me everyday
But you don’t know me
Bridge: and the lord gives and he takes
And he took from me
Have you thought of it this way?
Even you must stop and think
THINK, take a minute and just THINK
Chorus. Even clouds cry sometimes
Even seas can calm down
Pick up those frozen tears
You’ll need them
Think of Life as it was before
Stick: I want wake up
With some pride and hope
Tired of waiting
For the call from above
Bridge: THINK, take a minute and just THINK
Chorus. Even clouds cry sometimes
Even seas can calm down “Time keeps running
Pick up those frozen tears don’t stop hoping
You’ll need them x2 Life will open
Think of Life as it was before The world for you”
Music: Mind’s eye Lyrics: D. Flores
2. Calling (Father to Son)
Verse: Please take a minute
Just another minute of your precious time
Wait for a moment
Give me a second to explain my son
Sit by my side for awhile
How come you don’t speak to me
You see, to me it means a lot
Bridge: I will be near
When you least expect me to
I will be there
Right beside you when you fall asleep
Chorus: CALLING
He wants me to forgive him
After all that I went through
Who is he CALLING for?
Verse: I wasn’t there
When you needed me to be your guiding light
Can you forgive me?
Trust me I’ll never let you down again
Time heals all scars, don’t you see
I know I didn’t watch you grow
But I, I can’t go back in time
Bridge: So look ahead
Still there’s many years to come
Within our hearts
There is still a father and his son
Chorus: CALLING
He wants me to forgive him
After all that I went through
Who is he CALLING for?
Stick: Within our hearts
We are still father and son
Chorus: CALLING
He wants me to forgive him
After all that I went through
Who is he CALLING x2
Who is he?
CALLING?

3. A Pond of Thoughts
Verse: Six years old
Wants to know what’s out there
His dark blond hair
Moving slowly in the wind
An open mind
Filled with curiosity
Unaware
Of where time is taking him to
Bridge: Still only a child but yet so old
His mind made up, there is no way he’d stop
He has to find out
Chorus: Events that are to come and go
In a pond of thoughts
Reflections passing by his eyes
The mirror of his life is complete
Verse. Now each day
Is shorter than the last
The yellow trees
Only leave a few more weeks
In the early dawn
He knows just what to do
To solve the quiz
Must be done before winter falls
Bridge: Still only a child but yet so old
His mind made up, there is no way he’d stop
He has to find out
Chorus: Events that are to come and go
In a pond of thoughts
Reflections passing by his eyes
The mirror of his life is complete
Stick: A day, a week, a year who can tell from now?
Predictions never seem to show what you want to know
Chorus: Events that are to come and go
In a pond of thoughts
Reflections passing by his eyes
The mirror of his life is complete
Music: Mind’s eye
Lyrics: F. Grünberger
4. Closer (Spirits in the Room Part I)
Verse: A stream of light through my window
In the crack of dawn
Another sleepless night on my own
Living, each day for the moment
No one can see, nobody knows
In silence, I get up on my feet
Can hardly stand
My eyes feel like two stones inside my head
Tired, kneed to change my direction
Have I deserved to live like this?
Bridge: My sheets are soaking wet
What can I do? (What can I, what can I do)
I can’t get out of this
What can I do?
Chorus: I’m being chased by a dream
It’s coming closer every time
My inner self wakes me up in a scream
Verse: Through a haze I’m staring at myself
Can’t believe its me
The mirror shows someone else staring back
Waiting, to be pardoned from this nightmare
A new day to come, a new day of hope
Bridge: My sheets are soaking wet
What can I do? (What can I, what can I do)
I can’t get out of this
What can I do?
Chorus: I’m being chased by a dream…
Stick. If I can keep my eyes closed till the morning sun, shines on to my face
Then I can see a turning point ahead
Oh, release me from these tighten ropes
Can’t you see me trying to get loose
I’m trying to get loose
Chorus: I’m being chased by a dream
It’s coming closer every time
My inner self wakes me up in a scream………
Music: Mind’s eye
Lyrics: F.Grünberger
5. In My Mind (Spirits in the Room Part II)
Intro: Oh, there’s nothing like the morning sun
Forcing your eyes open
Lifting the sheets of your bed
and you don’t want to wake up
Last night
Same dream again
A red dress floating on the waves
Why am I always too late to save her?
Pre-Verse: Is it my fault?
Leave me alone
Who is she? Who is she?
Who are you?
and after asking my self that I always wake up
Verse: A cloud outside my window looks strange at me
At last real life
Will I dream the same thing tonight?
What does it tell me?
I know someone needs me
No one believes what I tell
They say I’ve lost my mind
Maybe it’s true
People think they have all the answers anyway
Who cares about them
Bridge: Every time I’m alone
I see someone asking for help
Save me she says
and as I realize I’m not awake
The sky is not there!
Chorus: It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
What is this vision?
Someone’s lost inside my head
It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
and if you’re there
Maybe you can explain
Pre-Verse: Is it my fault?
Leave me alone
Who is she? Who is she?
Who are you?
and after asking my self that I always wake up
Verse: This time I was close
But the waves pushed me away
All I can do now
Is wait for the next time
For one week and a day
I’ve seen that same face
Don’t ask me why
Well I tell the truth
and if you don’t believe me
Just look me in the eye
Bridge: Every time I’m alone
I see someone asking for help
Save me she says
and as I realize I’m not awake
The ground is not there!
Chorus: It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
What is this vision?
Someone’s lost inside my head
It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
and if you’re there
Maybe you can explain
Stick: Now I see that same red dress
I grab her hand and I awake
I’m awake
At last I’m free again
Free again…
Chorus: It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
What is this vision?
Someone’s lost inside my head
It’s in my mind
No point in trying to escape
and if you’re there
Maybe you can explain…
Music: Mind’s eye
Lyrics: D. Flores
6. Primitive Light
Verse: Anger makes us hate what we don’t understand
We believe the worst, then we look the other way
Afraid to share the ground we walk, the air we breathe
Our world is not changing cause you’re stopping it
Choices divide us
Bridge: Tears mixed with blood
Different religions fight each other
For something that may not be true
Chorus: Forget who you are
and throw away all your hate and anger
Soon you’ll look down
Ashamed of the waste of time
So open your eyes again
Verse: They think he creates trying to expand their map
Someone looses faith when he sees that there’s no end
A simple man spreads the dust of his only son
So how can you blame him for having different skin?
One day you’ll wake up
Bridge: Tears mixed with blood …
Chorus: Forget who you are …
Stick: How can I tell you
So much to explain
My words to poor
So only my smile remains
“Nobody cares where you come from
Only where you’re going”
Break the mirror Could you lie to your self ?
Turn around Could this be what you want ?
Open your eyes Sometimes the silence speaks for itself
Chorus: Forget who you are
and throw away all your hate and anger
Soon you’ll look down
Ashamed of the waste of time
Forget who you are
and throw away, your hate and anger
Soon you’ll look down
Ashamed of the waste of time
It’s time to put out that
Primitive light
Music: Mind’s eye
Lyrics: D. Flores
7. Jealousy in Disguise
Verse: Should I cross the line
Or bite my lip
Cause my hunger is slowly growing
Pre-Bridge: Raise your hand
Show that you care
Don’t let them push you down
Time flies by so do something now
Verse: Respect my point of view
Listen to me
All I care of is to make it
Pre-Bridge: Raise your hand
Show that you care
Don’t let them push you down
Time flies by so do something now
Bridge: There’s your chance so take it now
Speak your mind
There’s no second chance
Chorus: Only one of us can see it
Jealousy in disguise
Can’t stand your smile
Stick: There is only one way
Of course they’ll tell you
That there is no such thing
Don’t believe a single word they say
Cause there is only one way
Concentrate on what you believe
Trust me…
Bridge: There’s your chance so take it now……
Chorus: Only one of us can see it
Jealousy in disguise
Can’t stand your smile x2
Bridge: There’s your chance so take it now……
Chorus: Only one of us can see it
Jealousy in disguise
Can’t stand your smile x2
1. Raise your hand show that you care
2. Time flies by so do something now

Lyrics: D. Flores
8. Fall on Trust
9. Circles in the Sand
Verse: I wish I could stop the rain
Could chase the clouds
Into these arms of mine
To late to calm me down
What’s done is done
Don’t try to understand
It’s all in my diary
Read my thoughts
That’s all I have
I write this to let you know
What I might need
But you can not see
Bridge: Take me in your arms
Spoil me with love
Teach me how to appreciate
Fill the empty spaces with your trust
It sort of gives me faith
So I can believe in my self
Chorus: Tear down the walls around me
Bring back all the words I said
Salvation may come
But don’t depend on it
Drawing circles in the sand
Verse: These tears they never dry
My life goes on
Empty and lost
To late to turn around
Where can I go?
To hide my regrets
This letter will tell you why
I couldn’t stay
You gave me no choice
I know what you’re saying now:
-How can he
Do this to me?
Bridge: Take me in your arms…
Chorus: 1.
Tear down the walls around me .
Bring back all the words I said
Salvation may come
But don’t depend on it
Drawing circles in the sand
Chorus: 2
Feelings get lost in memories
Then suddenly come back again
Temptation may come
But don’t depend on it
Drawing circles in the sand
Verse: I wish I could stop the rain…
Outro: Don’t let it fade out
Music: Mind’s eye
Lyrics: D. Flores
10. ...Fade Out
