01. Children Of The Dawn

They face the night
Will they return again?
Eyes wide with fright
Religion they defend

Holding their guns with a tight grip
Hiding their "sighs" as they tray...

And they pray
So I pray

The last thing to remember
You can't run away
There'll be no surrender
The lives are lost but they are free at last

Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
They are the chosen ones who suffer in the end
Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
What are they fighting for in your holy war?

Ooh, miles to go
And their young hearts yearn today
There's salvation, the next life
But the sand just burns

Now the cannons thunder
As ordnance lights the sky
The whole world stare in wonder
The lives are lost but they are free at last

Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
They are the chosen ones who suffer in the end
Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
What are they fighting for in your holy war?

The days are months, the months are years
But time can't dry away the million tears
When all the souls are gone and nobody's left to play
The game is over...

And they pray
So they pray

They will never learn, never turn
Away from violence and destruction
Never fear, never hear
Throw caution to the wind

But they're out of time, out of place
Don't belong in this situation
You don't know, you don't hear
The pounding of the beat they're marching...

Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
They are the chosen ones who suffer in the end
Marching on - Can you see the children of the dawn
What are they fighting for in your holy war?

02. No Way Out

I can't sleep but I've gotta pass the time
I can't think when I loose my mind
And it kills me inside to make me wonder

I can't fall when I'm crawling on the ground
I can't hear when I make a sound
And it's high time to leave this rock I'm under

I make waves but you always take control
I wanna scream but it burns my throat
Until every single hour, I loose a little power

No way out for me
I've got to find my dignity
Cuz nothing else can take away this sorrow
No way out for me
I'm not the man I used to be
But I can make it on my own

I make tracks but they only lead to pain
I step back and you make your gain
But when push comes to shove, we're going nowhere

I aim high but you always shoot me down
I try to fight but my hands are bound
And the words that I have kept inside are deepening this great divide

No way out for me
I've got to find my dignity
Cuz nothing else can take away this sorrow
No way out for me
I'm not the man I used to be
But I can make it on my own

03. Crossfire

I'm on the run, I'm on the loose
I'm just a man, no masterplan
I do the best I can

Wontcha take time, have a word with me
Can I be who I want to be?
Running down the road of a one track mind
Wanna believe that I'm out of line

Can't loose what I never had
Mixing me up with the Good and bad
What can I say to get your thought undone?
Can't you understand?

I'm on the run, I'm on the loose
I did my time, yeah...
I'm just a man, no masterplan
I do the best I can

Caught in the crossfire
Labelled me a foe and there's nowhere I can go
Caught in the crossfire
Cuts me like a knife when I'm walking through my life

Shotgun hanging on the wall
Big boys gotta stand so tall
Rubbing on the barrel with his head held high
Taken away with patriotic pride

No place, not enough for both
Would he be shocked that I took the oath?
What you gotta prove if your number one?
Always got me on the run!

I'm on the run, I'm on the loose
I did my time, yeah...
I'm just a man, no masterplan
I do the best I can

Caught in the crossfire
Labelled me a foe and there's nowhere I can go
Caught in the crossfire
Living like a mole, won't be stuck inside my hole anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore...

I'm on the run, I'm on the loose...

Caught in the crossfire
Labelled me a foe and there's nowhere I can go
Caught in the crossfire
Living like a mole, won't be stuck inside my hole anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore...
I can't take anymore, anymore, anymore...

04. I'm Not Afraid

Yeah...

A disturbing vision in my mind
The only thing you will find
All my thoughts just fade away
And it's killing me inside

The chaos that I've come to know
It echoes from my head to toe
Wicked thoughts encumber me
Now I'm left to decide

I will never forget how it struck me deep inside
To find out life is only a test and time goes by

I've been haunted by my yesterdays
The reasons for the pain won't go away
But I'm not afraid anymore
We were running to the light
Running from our demons of the night
But I'm not afraid anymore

No, no, no, no...

I'm the man that I've become to be
I will learn from my mistakes
To continue on this winding road
Just as long as it may take

I don't know but I've been told
My situations growing old
Release me from the hands of time
That have kept me behind

When it's all said and done, retribution will have its way
There's a place in my soul where the darkness just drives me insane

I've been haunted by my yesterdays
The reasons for the pain won't go away
But I'm not afraid anymore
We were running to the light
Running from our demons of the night
But I'm not afraid, no I'm not afraid anymore

No, no, no, no...

I've been haunted by my yesterdays
The reasons for the pain won't go away
But I'm not afraid
We were running to the light
Running from our demons of the night
But I'm not afraid anymore

I've been haunted by my yesterdays
The reasons for the pain won't go away
But I'm not afraid anymore
We were running to the light
Running from our demons of the night
But I'm not afraid anymore

No, no, no, no...

I'm not afraid anymore...

05. A New Religion

Come on!

Well it's just another day
It's just another sign
No control of our fate
To which we must resign

And it's still going on
And it's still making song
Maybe we'll find out today?

Breaking down the walls around
Building up the hope we found
Don't you know our hands aren't bound?
It's only decision, a new religion

We can shut our eyes, so blind
Try and tolerate mankind
And we can change our state of mind
It's only decision, a new religion for you and me

They'll be coming from the dust
Yes, soon they will arise
To be free of all the hate
And free of all the lies

If there's too much at stake
Then how long will it take?
Till we understand what we have done?

Breaking down the walls around
Building up the hope we found
Don't you know our hands aren't bound?
It's only decision, a new religion

We can shut our eyes, so blind
Try and tolerate mankind
And we can change our state of mind
It's only decision, a new religion for you and me

Somebody help us to change our state of mind...

Take some time and have a look my friend
Where mystery starts the justice will end
So pull your head out of the sand
After we've made this bed we're gonna sleep in it again

Breaking down the walls around
Building up the hope we found
Don't you know our hands aren't bound?
It's only decision, a new religion

We can shut our eyes, so blind
Try and tolerate mankind
And we can change our state of mind
It's only decision, a new religion for you and me
It's only decision, a new religion for you and me
It's only decision, a new religion for you and me...

Breaking down the walls...

06. The Hour Of Freedom

I know the truth of who's to blame
No one will deny
I cannot not run from the sun
What a hopeless crime!

I won't be blamed for all the pain
And all the anger in this world
But now I've taken my last chance
I got heartache in return

Gotta fly, set me free
I'm beggin' on my bended knees
And I pray that I find my way home
In a world made of fear
Where justice makes you shed a tear
In my dreams I can turn back the time
To my life before the storm...

I count the days as they go by
In my rusty cage
I'm so alone on my throne
Who will rescue me?

My only thoughts are my regrets
Now that I must pay my debt
A guilty soul lost in time
At the verdict I just wept

Gotta fly, set me free
I'm beggin' on my bended knees
And I pray that I find my way home
In a world made of fear
Where justice makes you shed a tear
In my dreams I can turn back the time
To my life before the storm...

I was caught between the right and wrong
A voice inside it kept me strong
As the henchman walk away
The plot now thickens...

And I can't believe I was such a fool
How can a person be so cruel?
After all is said and done
My hour of freedom has come...

Gotta fly, set me free
I'm beggin' on my bended knees
And I pray that I find my way home
In a world made of fear
Where justice makes you shed a tear
In my dreams I can turn back the time

Gotta fly, set me free
I'm beggin' on my bended knees
And I pray that I find my way home
In a world made of fear
Where justice makes you shed a tear
In my dreams I can turn back the time
To my life before the storm...

I won't be blamed for all the pain
And all the anger in this world
But now I've taken my last chance
I got heartache in return...

07. Stop This Madness

Another year goes by
Times are changing, pain subsides
They talk of days of old
We'll never be the same

But we are living in circles
Repeating what we know
Only war and destruction
Seems to steal the show

Stop this madness!
Stop this sadness!
Stop this madness!

Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years

So many songs have been sung
We long for freedom often won
And marched with heads held high
Then asked the question "Why?"

Is there really a reason?
Are there ways to break this mould?
We're getting louder and louder
But the volume is controlled

Stop this madness!
Stop this sadness!
Stop this madness!

Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years

Stop this madness!
Stop this sadness!

Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years

Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years

Stop this madness!

08. Desert Land

Here I am alone again in my darkened room
Memories of long lost days of which I am a slave
I'm trapped inside my solitude and my broken dreams
But my memory's all clouded now eternally

Am I but a novelty in this desert land?
Far off tides have washed away the message in the sand
If I cast aside the barricade will I then survive?
Cause my spirit feels so empty now, but I'm alive...

09. Out Of This World

Used to be just stories told
No real signs, no laid paths to find
But now there's a place
With answers to the questions

From the beast we try to hide
Searching for sanctuary divine
We've made our escape
Beyond the grasp of reality

Breaking down the walls
We can build a new tomorrow
We can take away the pain...

Out of this world (this world)
I hear the revolution is calling me
Take me out of this world (this world)
The final destination is honesty

And we shall scream when they
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Away from the found out lies

Out of this world (this world)
The secrets will be plain to see
Right out of this world

Generations come and go
Twisted tales leave confusion behind
Pathological cries
Won't mask the calls of the renegades

Breaking down the walls
We can build a new tomorrow
We can take away the pain...

Out of this world (this world)
I hear the revolution is calling me
Take me out of this world (this world)
The final destination is honesty

And we shall scream when they
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Away from the found out lies

Out of this world (this world)
The secrets will be plain to see
Right out of this world

Out of this world...

All those memories locked inside
From our eyes, tucked away
We search and we will find
Revelations

As the evidence is shown
All the anger comes to pass
We will rise to the great unknown
Are we ready?

Now the wounds of the ages should heal
Diabolical mischief's reveal
That the powers to be
Can only control us so much

So we fade away with the light
Fade away with the light...

Used to be just stories told
No real signs, no laid paths to find
But now there's a place
With answers to the questions

Out of this world (this world)
I hear the revolution is calling me
Take me out of this world (this world)
The final destination is honesty

And we shall scream when they
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Away from the found out lies

Out of this world (this world)
The secrets will be plain to see
Right out of this world

Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Right out of this world

Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running
Hit the ground running...

10. It's Just A State Of Mind

As you face tomorrow
Just the same old sorrow
Got to find a cure
Will it be forever
I guess it's now or never?
No one knows for sure

Are you lying to yourself now?
Did you show your dismay?
As you wake from your illusion
It takes you higher, just takes you higher...

In this state of mind (state of mind)
It's an endless test of time
Got to find a way (find a way)
That will guide you through the day

It's just a state of mind...

It's a downward spiral
For your own survival
Driving you insane
You've been asking questions
Can someone tell you
There's just got to be an ending to this game

Are you lying to yourself now?
Did you show your dismay?
As you wake from your illusion
It takes you higher, just takes you higher

In this state of mind (state of mind)
It's an endless test of time
Got to find a way (find a way)
That will guide you through the day

It's just a state of mind...

What a state of mind!
Must be driving you insane
No one knows the answer anyway...

In this state of mind (state of mind)
It's an endless test of time
Got to find a way (find a way)
That will guide you through the day

In this state of mind (in this state of mind)
It's an endless test of time (test of time)
Got to find a way (got to find a way)
That will guide you through the day

It's just a state of mind...

It takes you higher
Will it be forever?

11. Wanna Hear You Rock

Out in the jungle there's a
Growing hunger and I
Think it's time to hear the music that we love
Getting sick of all this nonsense
People come and go at dispense
There's too much bullshit being shoved into my head

I wanna hear you rock
I wanna sooth my soul
I wanna hear the DJ play the music that I love
I wanna hear you rock
You got to take control
Because there's too much monkey business to think of

What a dirty business?!

There's something in the city
They're getting down and gritty
It's a revolution, and it's comin' down your way (comin' down your way)
You've got to drive us wild and
Cut loose our inner child and
Do you get my message? Cause there's nothing left to say

I wanna hear you rock
I wanna sooth my soul
I wanna hear the DJ play the music that I love
I wanna hear you rock
You got to take control
Because there's too much monkey business to think of

I wanna hear you rock
I wanna sooth my soul
I wanna hear the DJ play the music that I love
I wanna hear you rock
You got to take control
Because there's too much monkey business to think of

I wanna hear you rock
I wanna sooth my soul
I wanna hear the DJ play the music that I love
I wanna hear you rock
You got to take control
Because there's too much monkey business to think of

What a dirty business!

12. My Darkest Hour

Welcome to reality
The noise without the sound
A wicked silhouette I see
That follows on the ground

Peel off my shedding skin
Unleash the demons in my head
Look at the state I'm in
How can I get away?

In my darkest hour
I hide behind the shadows of the night
I pray that the fear won't last forevermore
In my darkest hour
My heartbeat echoes through these heavy walls
A sparkle is all I ask to guide me through this darkest hour

Analyzing constantly
Searching for a cure
This ailing has control of me
It's more than I can endure

Just like a loaded gun
I'm cocked and ready to explode
This shot can't be undone
I've got to get away!

In my darkest hour
I hide behind the shadows of the night
I pray that the fear won't last forevermore
In my darkest hour
My heartbeat echoes through these heavy walls
A sparkle is all I ask to guide me through this darkest hour

The lights are slowly fading
And there's nowhere left to go
I crawl into my sanctuary down below...

Welcome to reality
Analyzing constantly

Peel off my shedding skin
Unleash the demons in my head
Look at the state I'm in
How can I get away, get away?

In my darkest hour
I hide behind the shadows of the night
I pray that the fear won't last forevermore
In my darkest hour
My heartbeat echoes through these heavy walls
A sparkle is all I ask to guide me through this darkest hour

Through this darkest hour
Through this darkest hour...

13. Last Train To Nowhere

Looking out into the vacant sky
Like the future, it's just high and dry
I thought this world would take me by the hand
And teach me things I couldn't understand

I cannot say that I am sorry
I cannot say that I've been left behind...

On the last train to nowhere
Travelled so long, I waste my life away
On the last train to nowhere, and no no one knows
If I come or go

I've been a sinner, I have been a saint
I tell my stories with the pictures I paint
But after all's been done, there's still to be said
One million lines of grief still locked up in my head

I cannot say that I am sorry
I cannot say that I've been left behind...

On the last train to nowhere
Travelled so long, I waste my life away
On the last train to nowhere, and no no one knows
If I come or go

Should I have listened to my heart?
Should I have torn this world apart?
Should I have quit while I was strong?

But there's no turning back again
I keep on riding until then
Down the track that I've been running on

And all the stops I've passed
Are like the days gone by
Another chance I've missed and never will return...

On the last train to nowhere
Travelled so long, I waste my life away
On the last train to nowhere, and no no one knows
If I come or go

If I come or go
If I come or go...
