01. Caroline Leaving

Which of you am I to lay down first
To shake the coffin or to spread the dust
To say hell-o and greet the underworld
Or fly the moment over hill to burn
Feel the lightning, or be the lightning

Enter stellar levigate a name
Among the others we all look the same

Your time is flying now high in the air
So sad to see you got nothing to say

Two black ravens sitting on a fence
Cackle laughing at mankind itself
Loving how it feels to be that free
And leaving us behind in misery
Feel the lightning, or be the lightning

Enter stellar levigate a name
Among the others we all look the same

Your time is flying now high in the air
So sad to see you got nothing to say
The ravens are crying you home
'Cause the heaven is not you
You'll feel the fire
And I will be joining you too

Your time is flying now high in the air
So sad to see you got nothing to say
The ravens are crying you home
'Cause the heaven is not you
You'll feel the fire
And I will be joining you too

02. Another Day, Another Way

Jumping on the next train
And for a moment
I just don't know where I am
Sick and tired of seeing good people
Bending over for the system that I hate

Never meant to break your heart
But for a moment I just know that I have
Give me time to cope my mind
And finding faults for the reason to why I leave

Must leave when I'm going strong

Lead me the way and I shall call love on
Leave me the way that I still burn over you
I've been away

Sitting here in county jail
I should have been with you
But that's just how I am
Ain't no one to go my bail
But at least I know just when
And how to leave

Must leave when I'm going strong

Lead me the way and I shall call love on
Leave me the way that I still burn over you
Well, I've been awaiting for years
And I still call love on you
Leave me the way that I still burn over you

Well, I've been aware

03. Something Else Or...

Never felt the hunger
For one love that share one mind
But with you it's something else
That keeps my spirit high
Don't we all now have
This deathwish crawling in our mind
Well, I know I got mind
Together baby we will die

As I see you
With the time is that I need you
I keep my smile up, for all time
I do because you mind

Well it all ain't pink I know
Dark clouds always coming by
Use the negative moments to
Get stronger next time in line
But with you it's something else
That keeps me loving you
Should you leave before me
Over you ash I'll weep and then I die

As I see you
With the time is that I need you
I keep my smile up, for all time
I do because you mind

Then again until it's so
The dice keep tumbling round and round
With the names of those
Who could stick together for all time
Have you noticed that the
Dicemagnetic call our names
Well I told you again and again
With you it's something else

As I see you with the time
It that I need you
I keep my smile up with the lie
That I need you
I do because you mind
Well, I do because you mind

04. Rebel Monster

Drunk again my baby
Well the water ain't my brand
That god damn demon booze
Forever hunting
Sitting on my shoulder
Talking to my inner self
Well, let's forever feed the rebel monster

Well here we go again, no rules are set
And let us stay on the running train forever pumping
No ink on papers to show the motherfuckers who I am
Let's forever be that rebel monster

Forever let the train be running without breaks
To a place like nothing else, a feeling out of tears
They came from everywhere to see the running train
Wishing they were part of it

Duka Duka Duka Bunga Bunga
Just hold on because
The train went up in the air
And crashed to the ground
Boiled in blood my baby
With a broken leg and arm
Let's forever bleed the rebel monster

They came across the land
To get the lying train back on track
And worked for days
The sun was burning them
Someone stayed and someone left
But now it runs again to a place
Like nothing else

05. Pool Of Booze, Booze, Booza

With a fist full of courage and a heart full of rage
Cry my wicked soul, that I would never change
Well, that's okay, fine with me
Got 100 sides, what hell more do you need
Don't even try to find a reason in your mind
You'll never understand, we are just like night and day
Leave this song all up to me

And then the fight came
Between the love and me
Fucked another whore
In the pool of booze booze booze

My honour will never be questioned
My loyalty will never be sold
The truth will come over you and destroy the empire
So hold on or let go

With a fist full of courage and a heart full of rage
Cry my wicked soul, that I would never change
Well, that's okay, fine with me

And then the fight came
Between the love and me
Fucked another whore
In the pool of booze booze booze

And then the fight came
Between the love and me
Fucked another whore
In the pool of booze booze booze

With a fist full of courage and a heart full of rage
Cry my wicked soul, that I would never change
Well, that's okay, fine with me

Don't even try to find a reason in your mind
You'll never understand, we are just like night and day
Leave this song all up to me

06. Always Wu

Sickness hide inside
Eating flesh by time
The saddest news I have in mind
But I know you man
A heart like no one else
Keeps the fire glow friend

If I loose you, with the smile you do
If I loose you
In the morning, in the final sleep
If I loose you

Only one to know
And I promise you
Nothing change unless you say
But I know you man
A heart like no one else
Keeps the fire glow my friend

If I loose you, with the smile you do
If I loose you
In the morning, in the final sleep
If I loose you

Carry on 'cause there's no place to hide
Find the oath and feel
Our love for you if for all endless time
Alone you never be

If I loose you, with the smile you do
If I loose you
In the morning, in the final sleep
If I loose you
In the morning, in the final sleep
If I loose you

07. Say Your Number

It makes me feel like going crazy
And suddenly you don't think good of me
Constant volume
Buy the lady a drink, my friend
Spread out the night stand spirit team

Now listen here
The mark to greet the masquerade is here
Violating lovers for the aim
And plead for something more they cannot see
It makes no different kind of sense
That helps me to forget

Say 180, the cure for the seventeen kills
Mind escaping
It brings them through the dead
So sorry to be?

It makes them feel like going crazy
For they maim the way you see them think
Remember your life before they take you in
Dressed up in white and gone on pills

Now listen nurse
The bottle's empty and I'm feeling worse
What's the time, and let me see the light of day
The night stand spirit team is near
You too are welcome, take a face
Here's what she said to me

Tray 180, the cure for the seventeen kills
Mind escaping
It brings you through the day
So sorry to be?

Like a shark who is seeking for its trade
He sit there dreaming of a woman's scent
What is left in front of his hand

Say 180, the cure for the seventeen kills
Mind escaping
It brings them through the dead
So sorry to be?

08. Soulweeper

So sad, so afraid, so frantic

Well, I found you girl and see how it turned
I'm so sorry that I put your heart on fire
But I love you too
And I know I should've told you way back then
That I wasn't ready yet

So sad, so afraid, so frantic
I'm the soulweeper
So sad, so afraid, so frantic

Well, I thought I was bursted for this one
I'm a fool in pain and I feel so ashamed
Well, I always said; "nothing was meant to be"
And I still do baby, and I don't like to be

So sad, so afraid, so frantic
I'm the soulweeper
So sad, so afraid, so frantic

Well, a new day is born and I like it
Long lost pictures comes to life one more time
Well, I know that you sit alone and it hurts
Well, we'll always be friends, that's for sure

So sad, so afraid, so frantic
I'm the soulweeper
So sad, so afraid, so frantic
Well, I'm the soulweeper

09. Firesong

I can dance to the morning light
With my feet on fire
Drive the devil motherfucker
With my baby, holding on for miles
Well hey, do you really think
The truth is up there
Oh baby, let me tell you something
I don't care

Our masterplan has been waiting
And have been ready for far too long
Unleash the multiple devil songs
That grows inside your tongue
I've been wasting some time
Just to be part of shit
Now's the time, unleash the chain
'Cause hell awaits my name

To play in hell, I seek no other game
You too are there, well hell-o we meet again
Remember when we took it all
And danced the night away
Well, hell-o we meet again

Well baby, let's take a break
And walk up to the hills
The church of god awaiting us
But they do not know
That we bring all the fire songs
To burn their tongues
Oh baby, baby see the house of god blow up

Our masterplan has been waiting
And have been ready for far too long
Unleash the multiple devil songs
That grows inside your tongue
I've been wasting some time
Just to be part of shit
Now's the time, unleash the chain
'Cause hell awaits my name

To play in hell, I seek no other game
You too are there, well hell-o we meet again
Remember when we took it all
And danced the night away
Well, hell-o we meet again

To play in hell, I seek no other game
You too are there, well hell-o we meet again
Remember when we took it all
And danced the night away
Well, hell-o we meet again

10. Danny & Lucy (11 pm)

Little Lucy, out to cruise
On the road with pills and booze
Only 16 years of age
She got her motherfucking life destroyed that way

Danny is 28
That motherfucker doing drugs and just don't care
Falling down the line
Slowly losing grip of life

Dear mother, listen father
Little sister, baby brother
Read this letter, 'cause I'm never coming home
I'm out with Danny 'cause I'm tired of hearing
All the broken words of a better day
I'm fine with Danny, you broke your word

Dear mr. and mrs. Ness
I'm sorry to bring you this
We believe we found your girl
In an old burning car way of the hill

Dear mother, listen father
Little sister, baby brother
Read this letter, 'cause I'm never coming home
I'm out with Danny
Dear mother, listen father
Little sister, baby brother
Read this letter, 'cause I'm never coming home
I'm out with Danny 'cause I'm tired of hearing
All the broken words of a better day
I'm fine with Danny, you broke your word
Fine with Danny, you broke your word

11. Caroline #1

Sweet Caroline, how great thou art
Wear my ring around your neck
With a big honk of love
Don't be cruel, you gotta treat me nice
I just can't help believin'
I got suspicious minds

Well, such a night it is
You the devil in disguise
Who am I, it's midnight, I'm leaving
Rubbernecking, I've got a thing about you, babe
A hundred years from now roll on

Sweet Caroline, one night with you
At heartbreak hotel
We'll make the world go away
If you talk in your sleep it ain't no big thing
We can make the morning'
The impossible dream

Well, such a night it is
You the devil in disguise
Who am I, it's midnight, I'm leaving
Rubbernecking, I've got a thing about you, babe
A hundred years from now roll on

Sweet Caroline
Bum bumb bum bumb bum bumb
How great thou art
Wear my ring around your neck
With a big honk of love
If you talk in your sleep it ain't no big thing
We can make the morning'
The impossible dream

Well, such a night it is
You the devil in disguise
Who am I, it's midnight, I'm leaving
Rubbernecking, I've got a thing about you, babe
A hundred years from now roll on
Stranger in my own home town

12. Alienized

I like to be me, but that's not to be
I just wanna find the way to get home before I get old,
But where is the light
I wash my rusty burning glory that never-ever fit
To take it easy is not that easy when time is a bitch

What you see here, is what you get here
I just wanna find the way to change it, the way to accept it,
But when is my time
I wash my rusty burning glory that never-ever fit
To take it easy is not that easy when time is a bitch

I'm alienized
I'm alienized

Well, I feel that I don't belong here
Alienized in a world of nothing
Don't we all like to be just ourselves
Forced to be socialized for money
Couldn't care less for jobs I've been in
Well, one day I will go the Rock 'n' Roll way

I like to be me, but that's not to be
I just wanna find the way to get home before I get old,
But where is the light
I wash my rusty burning glory that never-ever fit
To take it easy is not that easy when time is a bitch

Well, I feel that I don't belong here
Alienized in a world of nothing
Don't we all like to be just ourselves
Forced to be socialized for money
Couldn't care less for jobs I've been in
Well, one day I will go the Rock 'n' Roll way
Alienized in a world of nothing
Couldn't care less for jobs I've been in
Well, one day I will go the Rock 'n' Roll way

I'm alienized
I'm alienized
I'm alienized
I'm alienized

13. I Only Wanna Be With You

I don't know what it is
That makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'Cos you started something
Oh, can't you see
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I wanna spend each moment of the day with you
Oh, look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only want to be with you

I don't know what it is
That makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'Cos you started something
Oh, can't you see
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you

You stopped and smiled at me
Asked if I'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms
And I didn't stand a chance

Now, listen, honey
I just wanna be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey
I don't care
'Cos you started something
Oh, can't you see
That ever since we met
You've had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only want to be with you
No matter what you do
I only want to be with you

14. Everything's Still Fine

Got my wheels in motion
I hit the road, I don't know why
The key to sell my self is fine
Behind my laugh there is a sign

Tell everyone everything is fine
Tell everyone everything is fine

Got my wheels in motion
I drive 100 miles at night
Still hypnotized by my own mind
Behind my laugh there is a sign

Tell everyone everything is fine
Tell everyone everything is fine
Don't look for me
Tell everyone everything is fine

Still on the road, yeah tell them that
The radio plays Elvis, yeah
I'm coming home and I'm okay
Just don't know where I'm gonna stay

Tell everyone everything is fine
Tell everyone everything is fine
Don't look for me
Tell everyone everything is fine

15. Healing Subconsciously

Out in the distance small faces in pain
Came along always in search of my dreams
They all fade away, to return some other day
Holding their mirrors, reflecting my sin
What do you want to tell me with this thing
They all fade away, to return some other day

Always leaving a picture to stand
With erased faces, what now do they tell
They all fade away, to return some other day
Limit their scent and somehow I do trust
Everything is working out for a main cause
They all fade away, to return some other day

All our faces will be on
When the mirror catches your soul
Let the good side of you roll
Now let it go, now get it on

Out of nowhere they came and they left
Was it me or do these children exist
They all fade away
To be turning some other beings

Many days have passed
And some new will be born
Thaks a lot children, for feeding this heart
They all fade away, to return some other day
