01. Me Against The World

It's just me
Against The world

Leave me alone
I'm on the defense
I'm not made of stone
Why doesn't that ever make sense
I'm sick of all this indecision
You're messing with my mind
This aint no false facade
And this ain't no freak disguise

Cause I am for real
You don't know what I feel
My strength is in my will
I can not wait
I wont be second rate
In for the kill

It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world

Inside looking outside
Through a goldfish bowl
In each hand of the masters
Make me lose control
If I'm an outcast
I'm not the last
I'm gonna have my say
They'll never take me in alive
I'm gonna make em all pay

Cause I am for real
You don't know what I feel
My strength is in my will
I can not wait
I won't be second rate
In for the kill

It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world

You can't face my life
You just won't think twice
I see it my way
I wont be the martyr
I know you see it wrong
The color don't belong
I'm holding tight
Don't you push me too far

Yeah
It's me against the world
It's me against the world
It's me against the world
Don't you push me too far
Yeah
It's me against the world

It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world
It's me against the world
Me against the world

Don't push me too far

02. Shock

I'm turning it on
I see familiar strangers, from a sightless pair
I came without warning, I don't play fair
Shotgun - you're on the run, can't you feel me getting closer
Stand back - surprise attack, ultrasonic spectacle

Plunging into the fire, never losing sight
Blinded by your desire, electrifiesd in the night, in the night

Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment

Convulsive heartthrob, flash in the air
A bolt from the blue laser-beam stare
Blackout - I hear you shout
Phantom schemes that drain more power
Flashback, we made a pact, now we want the pay-off

Plunging into the fire, never losing sight
Blinded by your desire, electrifiesd in the night, in the night

Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment
Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment

I'm coming out in sight, alive and shocking
I'll materialize, I'm turning it on for you

Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment
Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment

Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment
Shock treatment, I'm turning it on for you
Shock treatment

03. Outcast

Icy stares from upper echelon
So confused, I just don't belong
Out of place, the spotlight glares on me
When you don't fit in, nothing comes naturally

Ah, they're watching as I fall
Ah, I'm not invisible - not like the rest

I'm an outcast, free at last
So long, don't need you anyway
Outcast, I am who I am, here to stay

Solitaire, alone I stand
It's all so clear, impressions falsely take command
Distorted views, you see what you wanna see
I'm not like you, there's more than meets the eye in me

Ah, they're watching as I fall
Ah, I'm not invisible - not like the rest

I'm an outcast, free at last
So long, don't need you anyway
Changes, I am who I am, here to stay

I'm an outcast, I can see at last
Goodbye, I won't be caught in your trap
So long, I'm never coming back

I'm an outcast, under siege attack
Stand out, you didn't bargain for me
Wasted, I'm not what you want me to be

I'm an outcast, free at last
So long, don't need you anyway
Changes, I am who I am, here to stay

04. Den Of Thieves

We're the dealers, we'll steal your soul
Don't get too close, on with the show
I'm your host here; Oblivion, I'm full of sin at your service

Welcome inside to sights unseen
Visual lies portrayed obscene

In the den of thieves
Watch your eyes, we'll steal your dreams
In the den of thieves
I'll show you things that you won't believe

She's a harlot, she holds the key
She's never free, she's a good time
What you see is a slice of the knife
A piece of life in a heartbeat

Always alive, she likes to ride
Nothing to hide, she's out of sight

In the den of thieves
Watch your eyes, we'll steal your dreams
In the den of thieves
I'll show you things that you won't believe

He's an animal carnivorous
Don't second-guess, spreading fear
In this temple, this human zoo
Dreams come true in your worst nightmare

Welcome inside to sights unseen
Visual lies portrayed obscene

In the den of thieves
Watch your eyes, we'll steal your dreams
In the den of thieves
I'll show you things that you won't believe

In the den of thieves
Watch your eyes, we'll steal your dreams
In the den of thieves
I'll show you things that you won't believe

You won't believe, you won't believe, in the den of thieves

05. Visual Lies

I can't believe that I believed in your
You know just what to say, though none of it is true
You saw right through me, oh was I easy prey
Enticed my senses with lust I must obey

I can hear the call, I can see it all
I know you are my truth inside

Visual lies
Visual lies

How could you betray me like a thief in the night
You stole my eyes and showed me black
When there was white
I read between the lines, but still I don't see
I've got no guarantees

I can hear the call, I can see it all
I know you are my truth inside

Visual lies
Visual lies

I know you are my truth inside

Visual lies Visual lies [x5]

06. Eyes Of A Stranger

I think I know you when I look into your eyes
But when I hold you I feel you're as cold as ice
You stare a hole in me that chills me to the bone
Fatal attraction into the unknown

In the eyes of a stranger
There lies a mystery
In the eyes of a stranger
Are you what you appear to be

Beauty is just skin deep and the lines are getting old
Trying to find what hides behind the eyes of the beholder
Stranger's kiss is worth the risk of always being new
Never know just who you're with that's staring back at you

In the eyes of a stranger
There lies a mystery
In the eyes of a stranger
Are you what you appear to be
In the eyes of a stranger
Take a turn full power thrust
In the eyes of a stranger
Be cruel and be dangerous

With X-ray eyes I see tonight
Just who you are and I'm watching you
Your secret dream I hear you scream
I've gone too far for eyes of blue

The secrets of the past and all mistakes that never change
Recreating replays but the outcome stays the same
Ticking like a timebomb on the ready to explode
It's fantasy, reality, it's meaningless, alone deep down

In the eyes of a stranger
There lies a mystery
In the eyes of a stranger
Are you what you appear to be
In the eyes of a stranger
Take a turn full power thrust
In the eyes of a stranger
Be cruel and be dangerous

07. Lord Of The Flies

I see a ship of fools, don't obey your rules
Always fades away, never wanna play
Carries loaded dice, sell your should half price
Nothing matters here, growing insincere

And when the dream stand up and slips away
And when the screams start to fly into the sky
The dream dies

Lord of the flies
King of the killing sky
Lord of the Flies
Dares you to cross the line

Stripping all the gears, holding back the tears
Got the goat all along, something don't belong
Instigating fear, paralyzing sneer
Bark and then the bite, steal your heart just for spite

And when the night burns brightly into day
And when the light shines on without decay
It's all lies

Lord of the flies
King of the killing sky
Lord of the Flies
Dares you to cross the line
Lord of the flies
Never see eye to eye
Lord of the flies
Cutting you down to size

And when the dream stand up and slips away
And when the screams start to fly into the sky
The dream dies

Lord of the flies [x2]

08. Voyeur (I'm Watching You)

I watch you only, I wish you only knew
I am you solely, I'm deep in lust with you
You show me play things I thought I'd never see
But now I want to, to touch the real thing

I'm ready for action, I'm ready for you
I just can't hold back, I'm exploding, I can't last

Voyeur
I'm chasing shadows in the night
Voyeur
I'm watching you, you're in my sights

I know you so well, I know your every move
I can't stop watching, I see what no one could
You move your body, untouchable display
You make me crazy, because you don't know me

I'm ready for action, I'm ready for you
I just can't hold back, I'm exploding, I can't last

Voyeur
I'm chasing shadows in the night
Voyeur
I'm watching you, you're in my sights
Voyeur
I'm holding on, obsessed inside
Voyeur
I'm watching, undercover spy

I want you so bad, you don't know I'm alive
You never notice me watching all the time
Uncensored sightings, undress you with my eyes
I'm fantasizing you in suspended hight

I just can't hold back, I'm exploding, I can't last
I just can't turn away, I'm right behind you
A glance away

Voyeur
I'm chasing shadows in the night
Voyeur
I'm watching you, you're in my sights
Voyeur
I'm holding on, obsessed inside
Voyeur
I'm watching, undercover spy

I'm chasing shadows in the night
I'm watching you, you're in my sights

09. Visions

Innocent eyes, open them wide for me
I'm coming inside to find what I know you can see
the whole world is blind, except in your mind
Lying there face down, reluctantly
The fallen shall bow, the hope is here now
I'm fading in timeless intensity

Hear what I say tonight, for the time is right
You must obey tonight, the seeds are right
For the second sight

Turn on the vision

Turn on what only you can see, it's in your mind
Turn on the curse and watch closely, I'm ion your line
Turn on the vision

No static, it's clear
My actions speak louder than words
But you mustn't fear
Through my eyes you watch and you learn
The night is so black, I wait to attack
The silence is deafening, not a word
You witness the fear you've seen through your mirror
You psychic, you now wait your turn

Hear what I say tonight, for the time is right
You must obey tonight, the seeds are right
For the second sight

Turn on the vision

Turn on what only you can see, it's in your mind
Turn on the curse and watch closely, I'm ion your line
Turn on the vision

Turn on what only you can see, it's in your mind
Turn on the curse and watch closely, I'm ion your line
Turn on the vision

Turn on what only you can see, it's in your mind
Turn on the curse and watch closely, I'm ion your line
