SHE WAS HOPING FOR MORE
STRANDED HERE ON THE BANKS OF EDEN
IN PARADISE BUT INSIDE I DIE
STRANDED HERE ON THE BANKS OF EDEN
IN PARADISE BUT IT’S HARD TO SAY GOODBYE
LOST IN THE EYE OF THE STORM
ONLY ONE BLACK MILE AWAY
LOST SHE WENT OVERBOARD
ONLY ONE BLACK MILE AWAY
SHE WAS HOPING FOR PEACE AND REDEMPTION TO COME
SHE WAS LOOKING FOR GRACE AND A PLACE IN THE SUN
SHE WAS LOOKING FOR MORE
STRANDED HERE ON THE BANKS OF EDEN
IN PARADISE BUT INSIDE I DIE
STRANDED HERE ON THE BANKS OF EDEN
IN PARADISE BUT IT’S HARD TO SAY GOODBYE

BOATMAN

FROM ALL THE HURT I’M SUFFERING
FROM ALL THE HARM I SEE
FROM ALL THESE EYES OF EMPTINESS
AND ALL THOSE EVIL DEEDS
WHERE THE RAINBOW STARTS TO END
ACROSS THE SWELL BEHIND THE SEA
WHERE THE RAINBOW STARTS TO END
LET THE CURRENTS CARRY ME
TAKE ME AWAY BOATMAN
FAR FAR AWAY
TAKE ME AWAY BOATMAN
LET ME GO ASTRAY
FROM ALL THE LOVE I NEVER GOT
AND ALL THE CARE I LACKED
FROM ALL THE BLOWS THAT RAINED ON ME
BUT I WON’T COUNT BACK
WHERE THE PAIN BEGINS TO END
ACROSS THE SWELL BEHIND THE SEA
WHERE THE PAIN BEGINS TO END
LET THE CURRENTS CARRY ME
TAKE ME AWAY BOATMAN
FAR FAR AWAY
TAKE ME AWAY BOATMAN
LET ME GO ASTRAY

OUT IN THE FIELDS

IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU’RE WRONG OR IF YOU’RE RIGHT
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF YOU’RE BLACK OR IF YOU’RE WHITE
ALL MEN ARE EQUAL TILL THE VICTORY IS WON
NO COLOR OR RELIGION EVER STOPPED A BULLET FROM A GUN

OUT IN THE FIELDS THE FIGHTING HAS BEGUN
OUT ON THE STREETS, THEY’RE FALLING ONE BY ONE
OUT FROM THE SKIES A THOUSAND MORE WILL DIE EACH DAY
DEATH IS JUST A HEARTBEAT AWAY

IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU’RE LEFT OR TO THE RIGHT
DON’T TRY TO HIDE BEHIND THE CAUSE FOR WHICH YOU FIGHT
THERE’LL BE NO PRISONERS TAKEN, WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
NO FLAG OR UNIFORM EVER STOPPED A BULLET FROM A GUN

OUT IN THE FIELDS THE FIGHTING HAS BEGUN
OUT ON THE STREETS, THEY’RE FALLING ONE BY ONE
OUT FROM THE SKIES A THOUSAND MORE WILL DIE EACH DAY
DEATH IS JUST A HEARTBEAT AWAY

THERE’S NO COMMUNICATION
NO ONE TO TAKE THE BLAME
THE CRIES OF EVERY NATION
HAVE FALLEN ON DEAF EARS AGAIN

THE TIDE

WE CONQUERED OCEANS AND RODE THE LIGHTNING
WE SAW THE MOON GLOW HIS BLOOD RED SHINE
WITNESSED WONDERS AND TOUCHED THE RAINBOW
BUT YOU JUST CAN’T STEM THE TIDE
WE CONQUERED OCEANS WE’VE COME A LONG WAY
WE TEMPT OUR FATE FOUGHT SIDE BY SIDE
WE BRAVED THE STORMS IT’S BEEN A WILD RIDE
BUT YOU JUST CAN’T STEM THE TIDE
FAREWELL FRIEND
FAREWELL FRIEND
FAREWELL FRIEND
SO LONG
WE CONQUERED OCEANS AND SUFFERED SHIPWRECK
WE SAW IT GO DOWN IN WAVES SO HIGH
WE CAME SO CLOSE AND DID IT ALL RIGHT
BUT YOU JUST CAN’T STEM THE TIDE
NO YOU JUST CAN’T STEM THE TIDE

CHILDREN OF THE DARK

WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
A WALL IN BLACK
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
AND YOU DON’T GET WHO WE ARE
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
WE DARE THE FLOW
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
AND YOU DON’T KNOW WHO WE ARE
IN A LAND OF SEALS AND SORROW
WE KEPT WAITING FOR THE SPARK
SO HAIL YOUR KINGS AND HAIL YOUR QUEENS
WE’RE DIFFERENT WE’RE THE CHILDREN OF THE DARK
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
WE’RE TRUE AND FREE
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU
BUT YOU CAN’T SEE WHO WE ARE
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU

WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU BUT YOU CAN’T SEE
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU AND ALL THE REST
WE’RE NOTHING LIKE YOU

FOREVER AND A DAY

WE FALL AND WE’RE DRIED UP
WE SUFFER AND SCREAM
WE BUILD WALLS AND TEAR RIGHT DOWN
THE BASE OF OUR DREAMS
WE MISSED THE POINT OF TURNING BY NOW
AFTER ALL IS SAID AND DONE
AND WAIT AMONGST THE RUINS OF LOVE
FOR THE BITTER END TO COME
IT COULD HAVE BEEN GOOD
FOREVER AND A LIFETIME
IT COULD HAVE BEEN GOOD
FOREVER AND A DAY
WE CHEAT AND WE’RE WORN-OUT
WE COVER AND CRY
WE GUESS WHAT IS RIGHT OR WRONG
BUT TURN A BLIND EYE
WE KID OURSELVES UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE
TO CARVE OUR WEB OF LIES
WE’RE HEADING FOR THE BOUNCE BUT MISSED
TO PULL THE RIPPING LINE
IT COULD HAVE BEEN GOOD
FOREVER AND A LIFETIME
IT COULD HAVE BEEN GOOD
FOREVER AND A DAY

ACROSS THE WAVES

WE CAME ACROSS THE WAVES
TO LAND ON SAFER LAND
WE CAME ACROSS THE WAVES
TO STAND ON SACRED SAND
HELLO HELLO IS THERE
SOMEONE THERE WHO CARES
FOR GODFORSAKEN SOULS
AND GODFORSAKEN MEN
IS THERE SOMEONE THERE WHO CARES
WE CAME ACROSS THE WAVES
AND KISSED THE SOIL OF THE SHORE

FLED FROM A LAND AT WAR
HELLO HELLO IS THERE
SOMEONE THERE WHO CARES
FOR GODFORSAKEN SOULS
AND GODFORSAKEN MEN
IS THERE SOMEONE THERE WHO CARES
WE CAME ACROSS THE WAVES
DRIVEN BY FRIGHT AND HOPE

CHILDREN OF THE DARK

We’re nothing like you a wall in black we’re nothing like you and you
don’t get who we are we’re nothing like you we dare the flow we’re
nothing like you and you don’t know who we are In a land of seals and
sorrow we kept waiting for the spark so hail your kings and hail your
queens we’re different we’re the children of the dark We’re nothing
like you we’re true and free we’re nothing like you but you can’t see
who we are we’re nothing like you and all the rest we’re nothing like
you and you won’t guess who we are In a land of hate and horror we set
an exclamation mark so hail your kings and hail your queens we’re rigid
we’re the children of the dark For a new beginning for a turnaround our
heads are spinning and we won’t calm down we’re a wall in motion oh a
change is now walk in the park what comes around goes around better
watch out we’re the children of the dark We’re nothing like you, we’re
true and free we’re nothing like you but you can’t see we’re nothing
like you and all the rest we’re nothing like you


TERLINGUA

Mondschein

Öffne deine Augen wieder oder willst du nicht sehen stärke deine müden
Glieder oder willst du nicht gehen Ich lärm in deine Stille und zeige
dir den Weg ich heb dich in den Himmel und halt dich wenn die Erde bebt
Und unterm Mondschein lieb ich dich ja wenn der Mond scheint oder
willst du ewig leben und unterm Mondschein lieb ich dich ja wenn der
Mond scheint nie mehr allein sein Öffne deinen Türen wieder oder willst
du nicht raus ich schreib dir neue abschiedslieder da kenn ich mich aus
Ich schärfe deine Sinne und führe dich ins Licht ich löse deine Fesseln
und lass die Engel singen für dich

Never-ending love song

I’m the one who rides behind I’m the one in black when all those colors
shine so bright and I’m the one who’s hard to find I’m dancing in the
dark when it’s about dancing in the light So come on sing to me a
never-ending love song come on sing to me of shelter and belief come on
sing to me your never-ending song when life hurts me I’m the one beside
the class I’m the one who’s lost when it’s about following the tracks
and I’m the one who is undesired invisible and pale but still a monkey
on their backs

Heiland

Träume verglühen zu Asche und Staub sie fallen vom Himmel und keiner
fängt sie auf sie sind wehrlos verlassen vom Glück im Schatten der
Sehnsucht und es gibt kein Zurück Denn mein Herz brennt denn mein Herz
brennt ich steh hier und versink im Flammenmeer denn mein Herz brennt
und dein Herz brennt nicht Heiland, rette mich Kein Zeichen der
Hoffnung mehr nicht sein als sein Du Fels in der Brandung und ich bin
schwach und klein bin verloren verlier mich in dir die Nacht wird
vergehen und du bist nicht mehr hier

Tag X

Du lebst nur in Erinnerungen und all den alten Melodien kämpfst jeden
Tag im Hamsterrad Hinlegen Aufstehen mach deine Striche auf der Liste
für verloren und gewonnen die Zeit verrinnt der Zahltag naht und deine
Rechnung kommt Hast du gelernt hast du gesehen hast du verstanden zu
verstehen hast du geliebt hast Du gelebt wenns heut zu Ende geht hast
du gegeben und vermisst und rausgefunden wer du bist hast du geträumt
hast du gelebt wenns heut zu Ende geht Du lebst nur in Erinnerungen
weil früher alles rosig war heut ist dein Himmel grau in grau und das
Licht unscharf mach deine Striche auf der Liste für was war und sollt
nicht sein der Morgen graut ein neuer Tag und es ist noch nicht vorbei
Denn am Ende des Weges scheint ein Licht Morgenrot statt grau Denn am
Ende des Weges scheint ein Licht Es geht weiter steh auf immer weiter
steh auf.

118

I’m standing at the roadside on the 118 it’s freezing cold I’m dead
tired a haze lies on the landscape and I’m shivering and all the
falling stars seem to say goodbye as the rime is gently creeping right
over my feet my eyes are following the white lines on the straightaway
street swear that after the landing and after the pain I’ll think back
of you every time it rains I hit the road now here on the 118 it’s
freezing cold I’m dead tired it’s eight thousand miles to where I don’t
wanna be but still I’m leaving and I kind of wonder why it was a great
from the beginning to the closing scene I count those hundreds of dead
flies on the dirty windscreen you changed my paradigm and aspects
you’re my passport to fame I’ll think back of you every time it rains

Die Noten deines Lebens

Weiter bis die Lungen brennen wie HEISSER Sand weiter auf zu neuen
Ufern zu neuem Land irgendwo und irgendwann die Lichter sehen weiter
nur um hinzufallen und aufzustehen Tief in dir klingt ein Lied die
Noten deines Lebens deiner Zeit Tief in dir klingt ein Lied und dieses
Lied gehört nur dir allein Weiter bis die Wellen brechen am WEISSEN
Strand weiter einfach neu beginnen von Anfang an irgendwo und
irgendwann ein Silberstreif weiter denn die Uhren ticken die Zeit ist
reif

Still

Still ein dunkler Schatten am schwarzen Horizont still im Tal der Engel
wo nie der Regen kommt leer der Weg schien endlos volle Fahrt und nie
zurück ich bin leer sie endet gnadenlos unsere wilde Fahrt ins Glück
UND Mein Herz steht still mein Herz geht ein mein Kopf sagt lauf Mein
Herz sagt nein Still du schöner Engel im welken Rosenkleid still UND du
sagst tonlos es ist doch längst vorbei kalt ich hör deine Stimme wie
durch eine Nebelwand mir ist kalt gib mir den letzten STOSS volle Fahrt
ins Niemandsland

Ghost town gates

Hold me my dear I’ll be leaving soon hold me my dear I’ll be gone and
lay with me dear so wherever I’ll be I’m sure that your love lives on I
will breathe you in and I won’t breathe you out until we hear the calm
again of this long forgotten place right behind the ghost town gates
Heal me my dear I’m lost in you heal me my dear when it pains and
promise my dear that wherever I’ll be your sun leads me after the rain

An klaren Tagen

Ich habe alles gegeben und habe alles versucht ich habe alles gelernt
bekam von allem genug Ich habe alles gesehen Frieden und Krieg Hoffnung
und Leid Rom und Paris Ich habe alles gesehen doch das weiss ich nicht
mehr Und an klaren Tagen weine ich ein kleines Meer aus Salz bis der
Schmerz vergeht und mit leisen Flügeln flieg ich hinauf zum Himmel weit
meinen letzten Weg Ich habe alles verloren und ich habe alles verlernt
ich habe mich selber verletzt und es nicht mal bemerkt ich hatte alles
im Leben Zukunft und Kraft glückliche Zeit im Zentrum der Macht ich
hatte alles im Leben doch das WEISS ich nicht mehr an klaren Tagen
träum ich nochmal von daheim und der alten Zeit und an anderen Tagen
sitze ich allein in einem Stuhl soll das Leben sein?

Love lies

Rely on my words you won’t fall apart whenever you’re suffering on an
loneLY broken heart I won’t let you down I’d love to pretend the boat
in your lake of tears when it all has come to end When love lies love
bends the truth and love lies plays tricks on you Rely on my words you
won’t be the last and you won’t be the only one but the daylight blurs
the past I’m freezing your smile you know where I am deep down in the
rainbow mine when it all has come to end Love dies but will always be a
part of you love hurts more than all the rest when love dies somewhere
deep inside of you you’ll know it was decidedly the best

Terlingua

Study Butte

I came to see this light again a light that burns like flames I came to
see resistance and streets that have no names bring me up to study
butte where the final path begins bring me up to study butte let me
leave here in the wind I’m back to see those hills again those nameless
shades of red I came to see inviolacy and peace I won’t forget bring me
up to study butte where my final path begins bring me up to study butte
let me leave here in the wind

Radio Mono

When it’s all dark but it grows darker still when the tide is high and
your battery’s low when the day seems colder than the day before
there’s a little that shines yeah there is somewhere you can go No
matter which city no matter how far no matter one button and I’ll be
right where you are if you’re running on empty tune in into my show on
this is Radio Mono When you lose heart but it gets harder still when
the case is closed and you lost your shares when the mountain’s higher
than the valley’s low there is one thing you can count on there is
someone there who cares


Twice In Life

So you’re here in the right
place right where you should be close your eyes and the book of doubt
and come closer to me Even if you’re scared and hopelessly confused and
even if your heartstrings are tangled in a thousand loops remember no
moment comes twice in life Don’t you worry ‘bout the future cause
nobody knows let’s make it something unforgettable before it’s time to
go Just let me try to give you all you’re dreaming of even if you’re
risking it all and you’re falling in love remember no moment comes
twice in life So let me try to give you all you’re dreaming of even if
you’re risking it all and you’re falling in love remember no moment
comes twice in life remember no moment comes twice in life

After The War

My Worst Enemy

I don’t know what you suffer
and I don’t what you love
I don’t know what you think
you’re my worst enemy
I don’t know what you look like
I don’t know what you hate
I don’t know what you believe in
my worst enemy

I don’t know if you’re craven
and I don’t know if you’re brave
I’ll never see you smile
you’re my worst enemy
and I don’t know if you’re desperate
cause I never heard you cry
I don’t know who you pray to
my worst enemy

There’s no way out of the trench
yes I came to shoot you down
no way back from here
even if your helmet’s all I see
no way out of your grave
I saved my best shot and a round
for my worst enemy

I don’t know where you come from
and I don’t know what you dream
no I don’t know who you trust
you’re my worst enemy

and I don’t know what you sound like
cause I never heard you sing
no I don’t know what you hope for
my worst enemy

There’s no way out of the trench
yes I came to shoot you down
no way back from here
even if your helmet’s all I see
no way out of your grave
I saved my best shot and a round
for my worst enemy

Was never taught to question
or taught to rule the roost
I only learned to follow fame and bigotry
I’ve never been a rebel
and never ever loose
just die for all my sorrow
I’m your enemy
I’m your enemy

There’s no way out of the trench
oh yeah I came to shoot you down
no way back from here
even if your helmet’s all I see
no way out of your grave
I saved my best shot and a round
for you my dear enemy

there’s no way out of the trench
oh yeah I’m gonna shoot you down
no way back from here
even if your helmet’s all I see
no way out of your grave
I saved my best shot and a round
for you my worst enemy

In the end

Do you
feel good now now that I’m gone so was it all right for you or was it
all wrong I couldn’t feel you in here I couldn’t feel you in here in
the endDo you feel freed now now that it’s past or do you think back of
me and all the words that you’ve choked or what killed it at last I
couldn’t see you in here I couldn’t see you in here in the endNow all
we know is all we’ve learned endless love is followed by hurt and all
we’ve built up just went down the drain cause of all we’ve fired and
all we’ve torn there’s no life left after the war and all we fought for
wasn’t worth the painDo you feel safe now now that you’re alone where
no one else ever comes in this place of frustration in this place I
called home I couldn’t find you in here I couldn’t find you in here in
the endSo do you feel freed now or do you feel save now or do you feel
spent so was it all right now or was it all wrong now in the end So do
you feel good now?

After
The War (Maxi-CD)
After The War

So many came before you, The prisoners of fate. A
history of bloodshed, A legacy of hate. But where will you be standing
When the battles have been won? Inside your lonely fortress The
battle’s just begun.After the war Who will you be fighting for? After
the war is over. After the fire Is burning to its dying embers. After
the war.A letter from the draft board, Put pain to all your dreams.
You’re just another number In military schemes. They marched you in a
uniform You wore against your will. With lies of hope and glory, They
taught you how to kill.After the war Who will you be fighting for?
After the war is over. After the fire Is burning to its dying embers.
After the war.After the war, You thought you’d be a hero. After all
that you survived. If hell was meant for heroes, You’d surely have
arrived.After the war. After the war.After the war who will you be
fighting for? After the war who will you be fighting for? After the
fire is burning to its dying embers. After the war.

No More Fear

All the way to a bright world and all the way
back take the left or the right turn you’ll always turn in black no
regrets no sympathy and no goodbyes when all the roads seem elfstruck
until the end of time

No more, no more this life is your escape
way No more, no more the worst is yet to come but beware, beware the
night is full of monsters No more, no more fear

Feel the haze on your cold heart and taste
the rain on your skin watch the sun going down on you as your descent
begins no give-up no apathy and no lullabies when all the skies seem
endless and access is denied

No more, no more this life is your escape way No more, no more the
worst is yet to come but beware, beware the night is full of monsters
No more, no more fear

The Promise

turned my grey into colors made of hope a broken man in dire-land until
you came and restored so say you’ll hold my hand when it’s time to go I
won’t go without you I won’t go without you, LoveYou saved my life from
the day that you kissed me and turned my world into a place I didn’t

haze of suspiciousness you taught me how to see so promise you won’t go

without you I won’t go without you, Love

Revenge
Revenge

For all the little degradations and all the dirty words you said for
all the white lies that helped you and everything you don’t regret for
being so extremely righteous and feeling outstanding smart for flying
now the flags of glory but being dead cold at heart I got heaps of
time… one day the revenge is mine

For being so great and gracious
and preaching against 666 for touching all those untapped bodies and
reaching in your bag of tricks for being so extremely careful when
seeding on virgin ground for being our guide and herdsman ‘cause here
we lie safe and sound I got heaps of time… one day the revenge is mine

Tired Of The Day

There’s a trickle of blood here in
the bathtub spout there’s a lot of ways in but only one way out when
sadness takes possession of your heart there’s a farewell letter on the
hallway floor written down all the things you couldn’t take no more the
lipstick on your face looks so bizarre

slowly I’m falling deeply I sleep
finally free I’m so tired of the day I’m so tired of the sorrow nowhere
to lay my head nowhere to put my pain I’m so tired of this life there’s
no reason for tomorrow I don’t wanna wake no more I want to sleep away
There was no river of doubt running through your veins you had to go
right here right now today cause hopelessness took possession of your
life I couldn’t see it come what now it looks so clear you were a
masquerader in the play of fear you went away before it was almost time

slowly I’m leaving blithely I
dream finally free She wrote I gotta get away I’m not strong I’m not
brave this is the only way to choose and at the end she wrote the place
where I will be will be better for me Der Mond ist aufgegangen, Die
goldnen Sternlein prangen Am Himmel hell und klar; Der Wald steht
schwarz und schweiget, Und aus den Wiesen steiget Der weiße Nebel
wunderbar.

So legt euch denn, ihr Brüder, In
Gottes Namen nieder; Kalt ist der Abendhauch. Verschon uns, Gott! mit
Strafen, Und laß uns ruhig schlafen! Und unsern kranken Seelen auch!


Viva Hades

Admiration Hill
We stumble up the hill with burning eyes it’s hard to breath there’s
smut on flame red skies we raise our flag knowing the worst is yet to
come no we’re not afraid to die just level your gun

And so we draw our weapons on
Admiration Hill and so we draw our weapons now cause it’s kill or be killed

As the last damn four of a
thousand we face the end we gird for the final battle as matters stand
we fought all for one and we’ll fight on one for all we’re not afraid
to die bad weeds grow tall

And so we draw our weapons on
Admiration Hill and so we draw our weapons now cause it’s kill or be killed

Symphony Of Pain
Rising high and falling deep reduce me to despair drowning in your sea
of sweet demand feed me when I beg for more bale is in the air blink at
me and I’m at your command

Whatever you may say whatever you
may do whatever you may need I’ll give it to you

There’s blood red rain coming down
on your bed tonight blood red rain’s on your face close this dark
romance as we dance down on danger lane whistling the symphony of pain

Shadows on the bedroom wall divert
me from the truth no way back tar and feather me discard the alarm
device sprinkle me with youth close my eyes there’s no more need to see

Whatever you desire whatever you
may claim whatever you may take I’ll take the same

There’s blood red rain coming down
on your bed tonight blood red rain’s on your face close this dark
romance as we dance down on danger lane whistling the symphony of pain

A love that never dies
Through a tempest of affliction across the mountain range of fate
through a thunderstorm of letdown and cross the waterfalls of hate
endured rain and hail and sorrow and all traps along my trail so here I
am a wounded man in search of skies and a love that never dies

I swam the river of dishonor and
crossed the maze of good advice I sailed the seven seas of madness
became master in disguise ignored legends of surrender and all
fairytales of bale now here I am a wounded man in search of skies and a
love that never dies give me love that never dies

I walked the woods of desperation
survived the elements in black I met wizards, witches and warriors and
all monkeys on my back I fought giants, monsters and misery to be back
where I belong so here I am a scarred man in search of skies and a love
that never dies so give me love give me love that never dies

Viva Hades
Can you hear me? I’m talking to you can you hear me my lips are very
close can you hear me as I canker your mind can you hear me my
rancorousness grows

Come and go down rig is my
religion come and go down and I smooth the way for you

Viva hell! Viva Hades! No return,
no escape Viva hell! Viva Hades! You will not see pearly gates Viva
flames rising high you will burn and so will I Viva Hades!

Can you feel me I’m creeping your
veins can you feel me I’m breathing down your neck can you feel me as I
ruin your cells can you feel me I’m dripping on your back

Come go down purgatory is blazing
come and go down I take the steps with you Viva hell! Viva Hades! No
return, no escape

Viva hell! Viva Hades! You will
not see pearly gates Viva flames rising high you will burn and so will
I Viva Hades!

Don’t call upon my charity don’t
call upon my sway you know my sense of decency’s in a bad way

Potter’s Field
Spent my days on the tramp and on the oceans on the quest for what it’s
for I strode the nights I slept in the dark of the arches where all
strangers used to sleep saw the ghost side of the land as the sun went
down on me

At Potter’s Field is where you
find me beneath the oak trees and the moon I nest at Potter’s Field is
where I laid down amongst my predators and friends I rest

Close your eyes and you can hear
the weeping forgotten lonely hearts can’t make their peace hear
unchristened souls yearning for remission and relief the shady side of
life and the downside of belief

At Potter’s Field is where you
find me beneath the oak trees and the moon I nest at Potter’s Field is
where I laid down amongst my predators and friends I rest

Along the streets of disregard and
across the eldritch boulevard you’ll find a place calm and concealed
here’s Potter’s Field

C’est La Vie
I was lonely I was lost and I was falling in disgrace I was learning
and returning with a smile upon my face I ran down the winding road and
fell wondering on my feet I tempt fate and won and I can say I had all
that I need

When I’m done and when I sleep I
want your love to stay with me my little wish my little hope for when
I’m cold so cold I’ll keep your voice forever here you’re in my head
and heart my dear a pile of slag a melody that’s what I’ll be c’est la
vie

I was weight down with sorrow till
I found the last resort and my soul is full scars from all the battles
that I fought I broke down a thousand times on this battlefield of life
I tempt fate and won and I can say I did it all right

When I’m done and when I sleep I
want your love to stay with me my little wish my little hope for when
I’m cold so cold I’ll keep your voice forever here you’re in my head
and heart my dear a pile of slag a melody that’s what I’ll be c’est la
vie

Save your speeches save your tears
save your votes and prick your ears all you leaguers come along on the
day I’m dead and gone

Revenge
For all the little degradations and all the dirty words you said for
all the white lies that helped you and everything you don’t regret for
being so extremely righteous and feeling outstanding smart for flying
now the flags of glory but being dead cold at heart I got heaps of

For being so great and gracious

The Best Of You
We said we’d go all the way go the extra mile from rags to riches was
the plan we said we’d never sleep before the break of dawn and we broke
away and we broke the law

On days of rain on days of shade I
feel this needle of pain that stings my heart every time I think of you
on days of darkness days in black times are not coming back but in my
head I’ll conserve the best of you

For “Wild Things” the time went by
like a New York minute but we wanted all the whole nine yards so we
swore we’re not giving in before we reach the top so and we lived the
dream and we lived it up

On days of rain on days of shade I
feel this needle of pain that stings my heart every time I think of you
on days of darkness days in black times are not coming back but in my
head I’ll conserve the best of you I’ll conserve the best of you

Never Say Die
Forty-four places in forty-five days ten thousand miles to go no time
to break no time to rest senses on overload too many diehards on too
many sides bigotry’s our disease folks die of hunger and beg for a
drink as you wait here patiently

Hear what I say hear what I cry
down on your knees oh never say die stand up today far far away a
change is in sight for you and for me

Colorful dresses in white dinky
parks the surface looks nice and clear homicide murder despite and
deceit the present is reigned by fear desperate creatures where once
was a land the soils are sour an dry mountains of weapons kill armies
of hate resist in the nick of time

Hear what I say hear what I cry
down on your knees oh never say die stand up today far far away a
change is in sight for you and for me

No more correct no more polite
it’s never too late wake up and unite stand up today far far away a
change is in sight for you and for me

Voices Of Doom

Voices Of Doom

Here’s my confession † My true belief
Look at me I am the living proof that end can mean relief I’m gracious
but there’s something you should know You have large shoes to fill † So
welcome to my freakshow Here in my netherworld I rule † Let all your
manners disappear † Finally your duty’s come clear Sing to me † All you
voices of doom † Come on sing to me † Let me hear the sound I like Cry
for me † All you voices of doom † Come on sing to me You’re sweet
perdition † I’m lunacy Look round ‘cause this is so different from what
you thought you need I’m driven by 666 my dear No way back no way out †
Been lost before you came here Here in my netherworld I rule † Let all
your manners disappear † Finally your future’s come clear Sing to me †
All you voices of doom † Come on sing to me † Let me hear the sound I
like Cry for me † All you voices of doom † Come on sing to me Sing for
me

Gothic Queen

Come cover me with comfort and keep
watch when I sleep Don’t ask me for my causes † Still waters run deep
This overwhelming sadness and this everlasting harm Won’t have a chance
to catch me as I rest in your arms My gothic queen she said † Kill me
with love † My gothic queen she said † I won’t survive this night
Before the break of day † Fill me with love †My gothic queen she said
Love me till I die Lead me into temptation † I didn’t come to resist
Give healing for this bleeding heart p†I want it like this This
overwhelming torture and this everlasting fear Won’t have the chance to
break me ‘cause I’m strong when I’m here My gothic queen she said †
Kill me with love † My gothic queen she said † I won’t survive this
night Before the break of day † Fill me with love †My gothic queen she
said Love me till I die Give healing for this bleeding heart † Give
healing for this bleeding heart of mine Give healing for this bleeding
heart † Give healing for this heart you broke tonight Give healing for
this bleeding heart † I love you was the very last she said

Pain

I am begging for protection † I am
praying but I find no quarter here I’m not ready yet I’m confused and
so unhappy And I’m lonesome though you said I wouldn’t my dear Time for
reflection † Take a gloomy view of life † Time for perfection And you
talk things to death but you speak without saying why Pain † In my bond
of love † Pain † Is what you’re dreaming of † Pain † But you’re never
satisfied All you want is pain † Beloved enemy † Pain † To a high
degree † Pain † Is that all you give tonight I am crying for good
reasons † I am listening but I only hear a tirade It’s not over yet so
it still demands an answer I’ll be burning because your fiend is here
to stay Time for reflection † Take a gloomy view of life † Time for
perfection And you talk things to death but you speak without saying
why Pain † In my bond of love † Pain † Is what you’re dreaming of †
Pain † But you’re never satisfied All you want is pain † Beloved enemy
† Pain † To a high degree † Pain † Is that all you give tonight All you
want is † All you give is † All I feel is † Pain

If I Fail

The sea is rough † The spindrift cold
† The bridge is under fire The master left the sinking ship as waves
were rising higher † Unbaptized † Unconverted Just a henchman on the
verge of throwing high aims overboard to feed the surge But if I fail
or if I fall † I’ll be aid and consolation † If I range or if I crawl †
I will shelter you my love If I starve or if I sear † I’ll be faith and
inspiration † Raise my hope and ease the fear † I’ll be there to back
you up The sand like glow † The desert wide † The sun truncated brains
The well dried up and thoughts are like a caravan in chains †
Bedraggled and ahungered Just a traveler in search of confidence and
devotion before it burns But if I fail or if I fall † I’ll be aid and
consolation † If I range or if I crawl † I will shelter you my love If
I starve or if I sear † I’ll be faith and inspiration † Raise my hope
and ease the fear † I’ll be there to back you up A lightning strike on
killing fields † The soil is soaked with blood A deafening burst † The
smell of death and faces blurred with mud † Ingenuous † Blameless A
peace seeker in the jam † But I’m stuck in here till judgment day on
ruined land

Forgiven

Why do you talk when you should listen
Why do you rape when you should pay Where do you stand when we’re
assigned to good or bad May your sins be forgiven half an hour before
the devil knows you’re dead May all your sins be forgiven before the
devil knows you’re dead love Why do you plunge when you should stand up
Why do you kill when you should praise What do they say those insane
voices in your head May your soul arrive in heaven half an hour before
the devil knows you’re dead May all your sins be forgiven before the
devil knows you’re dead love May all your sins be forgiven before
you’re dead and gone May all your sins be forgiven

Rest In Grace

A picture of you On Columbus Day A
picture of you Full of joy full of life A smile on your face So
beautiful And I don’t know how to go on but I’ll try Rest in peace †
Rest in grace And the tears roll down my face You took my love and I’m
left on my own You’re gone too soon or I’m too late You know that I
can’t wait to be with you I’m counting the days Rest in grace I gaze at
the skies Are you watching me Look over the things You collected over
years I walk through your room It still smells of you And I don’t know
where to move now so I will stay right here Rest in peace † Rest in
grace And the tears roll down my face You took my love and I’m left on
my own You’re gone too soon or I’m too late You know that I can’t wait
to be with you I’m counting the days Rest in grace Every crash every
low Every high every breakdown Every minute we shared was a great gift
I know now You’ll be with me in everything I do Forever I’ll remember
you

Trail Of Thorns

When heaven cries and days are grey
and it’s hard to breathe When blossom’s red is fading black and summer
leaves When songs of hope are whining low and moods go with the flow †
It’s not the end it’s just a stage It’s not too late † Here’s your
verve † you’ll get what you deserve Come light the dark around us †
Come be our beacon shining bright Come light the dark around us †
Believe me somewhere down the line Will come the day a star will rise
and you’ll be out of reach When life’s a trail of thorns walk on and
don’t you lose belief † Don’t you lose belief You know the rain you
know the shade and promises In being left and being lone you’re a
specialist When songs of hope are whining low † It’s time for you to
know † This is the start of something great It’s not too late † No more
hurt † So catch what you deserve Come light the dark around us † Come
be our beacon shining bright Come light the dark around us † Believe me
somewhere down the line Will come the day a star will rise and you’ll
be out of reach When life’s a trail of thorns walk on and don’t you
lose belief † Don’t you lose belief On this trail of thorns † Never
lose belief

My Dear Recipe

From golden cups and silver spoons †
More than weight is what you lose A beating heart and lovely skin †
That’s the least you’re giving in † Aspiration in your eyes You’re
offender and sacrifice † You’ll be famous for one day † I susurrate I
want you to sigh for me † I want you to try for me † I want you to lie
for me † I want you to steep I want you to sigh for me † I want you to
fry for me † I want you to die for me My dear recipe The scent of
herbage is in the air † You deserve my special care Arrange the
trimmings and lift my mask † This goes far beyond their grasp † Decant

Torture Me

There is no prevarication and refugees
can remigrate A sad world is strictly healing and my breed swims in
love and not in hate But that’s just how you wish it would be † That’s
just what you’re hoping for † Don’t wake me up Life’s deeper when I
dream † Don’t you torture me † Don’t wake me up † You can’t hurt me
when I sleep Don’t you torture me The last word is still unspoken and
our skin is still unhurt Our depression on vacation and our hopes lie
in wad and not in dirt But that’s just how you wish it would be †
That’s just what you’re hoping for † Don’t wake me up Life’s deeper
when I dream † Don’t you torture me † Don’t wake me up † You can’t hurt
me when I sleep Don’t you torture me The big scars are not existent and
our system is retrieved There is lowdown for the pilgrims ‘cause our
god is a host and not a thief

Time To Go

It didn’t last much longer than the
famous blink of an eye And all that’s left are memories and a feeble
rest of life I make my peace and think of all those yesteryears we
shared December daylight fades away the syringe is prepared My breath
is getting shorter † My moves are getting slow † My light is turning
pale † I know it’s time to go So join me for the last mile and stay
here till the end I’m tired but I am scared now † Give me just a little
strength No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I close my eyes
leave from here A quiet room † Four tiled walls and people dressed in
green I couldn’t tell if behind their masks they commiserate with me I
turn my head † I see your tears as they’re sparkling in the light My
body’s numb † Come give me some courageousness tonight My mind is
turning slower † My heart is beating low † My lids are heavy-weight † I
know it’s time to go So join me for the last mile and stay here till
the end I’m tired but I am scared now † Give me just a little strength
No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I close my eyes leave
from here † I leave from here I’m just a little scared now † So stay
with me till the end No farewell in the hallway † Just hold me till I
close my eyes leave from here

Pain, Love & Poetry:

This Is The Day

I believe we belong to another place * I believe we resurge if we try *
You and me we will see all the red lights in the dark * Such a
beautiful shine round this beautiful heart * This is the day * We get
away from torture * We get away from harm and rid of all our fears *
This is the day we’re going down with pleasure * We pass away in love *
Don’t be afraid my dear * I believe that you touch my insanity * I
believe that I die in your arms * You and me oh we seem to have
blessings in disguise * Such a beautiful tear in this beautiful eye *
This is the day

The Last Waltz

I wanna wade your sea * I wanna name your source * I wanna touch your
ceiling * I wanna change your course * I wanna turn your big wheel * I
wanna shift your view * I wanna feel your last breath on my skin and
leave with you * For a last waltz * Just before you go * A last waltz *
And then you leave me I know * I’m gonna break your silence * I’m gonna
shape your glance * I’m gonna train your motions yes I’ll do * I’ll
make you dance * For a last waltz * Just before you go * A last waltz *
And then you leave me I know * Come alive come close come here * Into
my arms my dear * For a last waltz *

Teach Me To Love

I want you to hurt me * But it’s all just a shade of the dark * I’m
afraid * Mourning rain * And the one I left behind * I want you to hurt
me * But I don’t want to fall in mirage * Plastered grey * Frowning
strength * But your faith is what I find * If you teach me to love * If
you teach me to breath * I’ll paint the beauty * For all your needs *
If you teach me to love * Promise you’ll be stronger then * And I’ll
burn you with a love that never shades * I want you to hurt me * I’m a
casualty of your touch * A pierced dove * All alone * With your crimson
venting slow * I want you to hurt me * ‘Cause my pain has drifted away
* Blinking calm * But I feel * Dust of salt from down below *

Sleeping My Day Away

Mumbling goodmorning & raising my head * A bad breath kiss to my
pillow pet * I take a look at the day turns & stay in bed * Open my
eyes when the day have died * I turned the world and I slept allright *
Now my daymare is over I zip my shirt tight * Oh lord won’t you bless
this night * From the pale lips of a youth who lay * I’m sleeping my
day away * And when the night comes to the city I say: I’m sleeping my
day away * Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say: I’m sleeping my
day away * After dark is the game I play * I’m sleeping my day away *
When my dreams begin I’d be proud to be letting you in * With a smile
on my face I guide our dreamboat in * So if you wanna travel along with
me * You better sleep tight the rest of the day * You see I could be a
sleeper it’s not rest I lack * ‘Cause I hit the sack when the suns
coming back *

Bloodmoon

You are clean * You are sweet * You are all I ever wanted * Come to me
* You are soft * You are so kind * You are all I ever needed * To feel
precious and alive * I feel love and I feel high * How do you feel? I
feel love * And love’s divine * Bloodmoon shine * Come and light me *
Come melt away the day * Let me love you * Love you in every way *
Before this night is over * I know that you’ll be mine * Do you see the
Bloodmoon shine? No more tears * No more lies * No more waiting to
exhale anytime * You are good * You are truth * You are all I ever
wanted * Salvation from my ruth * I feel love and I feel high * How do
you feel? I feel love * And love’s divine * Now you can see the
bloodmoon shine *

Get Some Sleep

What would you do if I said I love you * Who would you trust if I told
you lies * What would you do if I’d turn the tables * Where would you
run if you’re running out of time * You’re running out of time * How
would you feel if I said I hate you * What would you dream if you’d get
some sleep * Who would you blame if the world would listen * What would
you change if a change was all you need * A change was all you need *
What would you ask if I had the answers * What you paint if it all
turned grey * What would you think if you’re mind was open * Where
would you end if it’d end today?

Planet Shame

Don’t tell me what it means to bet the madman * Don’t tell me how it
feels to be so hurt * Don’t tell me what it takes to lead an empire (as
I know) * And I’ll keep for me how life looks with your face down in
the dirt * On planet shame * Don’t tell me how it feels to be forgiven
* Don’t tell me what it means to be so blessed * Don’t tell me how I’ll
die and get to heaven (as I won’t) * And I’ll keep for me how love
feels once you had it with the best * On planet shame * No more tears
will blur the sun *

Life Hates You

Seven seconds like seven days * Time doesn’t pass at all * It’s all the
same * When love has gone * The fear remains * Nowhere to lay your head
down * When it rains * And you wait for conclusion * And the end of
your days * Every heartbeat is wasted * For a lifetime betrayed * Where
was your part of fortune * From your angle of view * Life hates you *
And everything you do * Life hates you * But you hate this life too * A
picture frame full of deceit * An empty bed * An empty scene * When
love has gone * The void remains * Nobody you can turn to * When it
pains * And you wait for the daylight * And you feel incomplete * You
wallow in self-pity * And you choke when you eat * Where was your part
of romance * From your angle of view * Life hates you * No matter what
you do * Life hates you * But you hate this life too * A lonely shell,
a lonely home * A mess inside your mind * You’re so alone * Love has
gone * The flavour stayed * The flavour of a life * And all those
brighter better days * And you read all those poems * They describe
what you feel * Oh you wish you’d be stronger * You wish you’d be
healed * Where was your part of fortune * Nothing left to renew * Where
was your part of romance * No you don’t have a clue * Where was your
part of existence * From your angle of view * Life hates you *

Somewhere Else Than Here

She’s got the sway * She’s got the fun * She’s got the smile and the
angel face * She’s got the sun * No, I don’t feel warm at all * * She’s
got the blaze * She’s got the ken * She’s got the strength and anyway *
She’s got the plan * No, I don’t feel led at all * No, I don’t feel led
* If this is love * Come on slay me * If this is love * I would rather
not be here * If this is life * It ain’t worth the tears we cry * To
suffer want * To suffocate until we die * To suffocate until we die *
She’s got the tricks * She’s got the crown * She’s got my faith and my
belief * And she lets me down * No, I don’t feel caught at all * No, I
don’t feel caught * If this is love * Come on slay me * If this is love
* Only one romance * Only one gun * Only one bullet * Only one… Only
one letdown * The first and the last * Only one… * If this is love * I
would rather be somewhere else than here * It ain’t worth the tears we
cry until we die * I would rather be somewhere else than here * I aint’
worth to suffer want for all your life *

Burn Me

Here comes the sun * And I am freezing * Here comes the sun * I’m in
the shade * Here comes the crime * And I’m the victim * Here comes the
truth * There goes my fudge * I want your light to pain me * I want
your strength to make my day * I want your beam to melt my mind *
Before the dawn * Burn me * Here comes the sun * And I’m defenceless *
Here comes the sun * And I undress * Here comes the joy * And I’m
addicted * Here comes my healing * There goes disease *

Pain Machine

I’m wearing your dress * I walk in your shoes * I’m humming your
favourites * I’m making your moves * I’m breathing your grace * I
handle with care * I talked to your neighbour * I said you ain’t there
* Well, I’m here to shed your blood * I’m here to rip your heart in two
* Well, I came to hear you scream * I came to make my peace with you *
That’s why * Pain machine * I’m living your lie * I’m proving you’re
real * I sign with your lipstick * Your part of the deal * I call the
police * I’m closing your eyes * I’m washing your hands clean and
switch off your light *


Temple Of The Torn:

Temple Of The Torn

This is for all those somber moments * It’s for all those well ignored
* It’s for all their lost dimensions * And for those who don’t try it
no more * Welcome to the temple of the torn (This must be heaven then)
* Welcome to the temple of eternal love (Just like heaven then) * It’s
‘bout voices you don’t hear yet * It’s ‘bout suffering lonesome minds *
But I preach to the converted * As I know you’ll be down there tonight
* Welcome to the temple of the torn *

In My Heart

I still count every minute * Every look in your eyes * Every time that
you’re with me * Every kiss, every night * Give me hope for my mission
* And support on my way * We’ll be living in clover once we get over
the dark and cloudy days * You’re in my heart * You’re in my spine *
You’re in my head * You’re in my lungs * And when I die * I’ll be
waiting for you * To be with me * You’re in my skies * You’re in my sun
* You’re in my tears * You’re in my doom * And when I’m gone * I’ll be
hoping that you * Will be with me * You’re a reason to live on * Even
after this life * One’s to short for what we share * So we’re living it
twice * You’ll be queen of my empire * You’ll be glory and shine *
We’ll be in this together * Married forever * Until the end of time *
So I’m in love * Where are you? * You’re in my heart * You’re in my
spine * You’re in my head * You’re in my lungs * And when I die * I’ll
be waiting for you * To be with me * You’re in my skies * You’re in my
sun * You’re in my tears * You’re in my doom * And when I’m gone * I’ll
be hoping that you * Will be with me * So give me everything you want
to give to me * And tell me everything you want to say to me * Just
love me anyway you like ‘cause anyway you’re right here in my heart *

Just because I love you

You cried your dream in a big white pillow * You burned the bridge for
a way back home * You sold your sin to a place called heaven * You
searched for grit in a pile of stones * You’re all I want * You’re all
I need * But I can’t share you * Allay my love * Allay my greed * But
in my arms she died * And her heart stopped beating here * Right here
next to mine * Oh yes she died * With her eyes wide open * Why? Just
because I love you * You saved it all for this one good minute * You
smelled a rat when they looked at you * You broke the spell with a word
in silence * You shared your gold with the only true * You’re all I
want * You’re all I need * But I can’t share you * Allay my love *
Allay my greed * But in my arms she died * And her heart stopped
beating here * Right here next to mine * Oh yes she died * With her
eyes wide open * Why? Oh why? Just because I love you *

My-Sick-Mind-TV

I can get no sleep I can’t see the light I can’t stop the itch I can’t
temporize * I can’t heal myself I can’t stop the greed I can’t
sympathize I can’t love *So do you really want to change with me? *
Come walk in my shoes for a little while * And sink in my pain * Come
walk in my shoes for a little while * You’re welcome to my brain * Hear
what I hear * See what I see * On My-Sick-Mind-TV * You don’t want to
be me * I can’t rest in peace I can’t change the world I can’t stop the
jones I can’t say those words * I can be no good I can’t stop to scream
I can bring you down I can’t smile * So do you really want to change
with me? * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * And sink in my
pain * Come walk in my shoes for a little while * You’re welcome to my
brain * Hear what I hear * See what I see * On My-Sick-Mind-TV * You
don’t want to be me *
