Walking down an alley
Deep in blue neon A dead end for today Under skyways worn Concrete from far below Rising up above Surrounded by shadows Garden without gods All are strangers alike All riding the blind The purple of blind The purple of their eyes In reverie unwind Circling sub-city A rainbow appears To calm down the fury To calm all the fears This random occurrence Is only a sign Of the incoherence In the clockwork mind A symphony of our time Recalling the past People in a decline Denying the vibrations we're made of Somber drama Rolling down hill Panorama All is so still Anyway, anyhow Anyhow, anyway End of all reason End of all reason Is what I go through Yes, it is what I go through Slip-sliding nation Slip-sliding nation Is what they must do Yes, it is what they must do [Solo] Over the greying landscape Under a deadened sky Sitting on a mountain I will stand aside As I am a witness I turn a blind eye I am feeling helpless But it passes by Is this a modern legend? Maybe a fairy tale Just a future requiem Cutting along the fiction That we're made of Somber drama Rolling down hill Panorama All is so still Anyway, anyhow Anyhow, anyway 03. Clouds In my House
Zoning in a hall of glass
Plasma flowing from a cask Piercing overtones Mainline into my back pack It's full of clouds in my house It's full of clouds in my house A grey hive, humming white souls Frenzy reviving the room Energized by many flumes Drip-drop, on my head Wakes me from a thousand moons It's full of clouds in my house It's full of clouds in my house A grey hive, humming white souls A grey hive, humming white souls [Solo] A grey hive, humming white souls Circle dance inside the cave All movement brings a message Larvae, in their holes Waiting for a summer daze It's full of clouds in my house It's full of clouds in my house A grey hive, humming white souls A grey hive, humming white souls A grey hive, humming white souls A grey hive, humming white souls 04. The Prow
There you are, you're with me
Protecting all my crew I carved you, from a tree My vision is you Lorelei, I have thee In front of my ship Cutting waves, at full speed Savouring the trip Down the mirror of the waterline Leaning over underwater life Hidden treasures of the seven seas I'm starboard to nowhere On the milky way Howling wind, salty air Tearing at the sails Looking down the crow's nest Gliding in the sky Without sound, going west Boating on the fly Down the mirror of the waterline Leaning over underwater life Hidden treasures of the seven seas But some day You'll go home Far away On your own Dans la mer You'll go down Go down where You belong [Solo] Down the mirror of the waterline Leaning over underwater life Hidden treasures of the seven seas 05. Best Regards
To whom it may concern
Your well-known address Again, with no answer To my last request Disregard ink spots My presentation Consider my clear thoughts My speculations What a warning The way you're talking I'm more than worried The sky is burning The clouds are falling I'm more than sorry You write me back Blank empty words You don't write back Acknowledge my statement A creased white receipt What a disappointment Was I indiscreet? Perhaps I'm impolite Am I out of place? Have I the right to write To express my case? The time is coming The world is dying I'm more than worried The clock is ticking Real action's missing I'm more than sorry [Solo] I stay well-behaved Waiting for the mail Best regards, good world Best regards, good world I stay well-behaved Well into my grave Best regards, good world Best regards, good world Best regards, good world Best regards, good world Best regards, good world Best regards, good world 06. Twin Dummy
Dummy says
I have dreams Frightening screams I have dreams Dummy says It's too late Big mistake It's too late The circus left without me The circus left without me And I'm alone with you now And I'm alone with you now Dummy says Stay with me Talk to me Stay with me Dummy says Holiday Come and play Holiday The circus left without me The circus left without me And I'm alone with you now And I'm alone with you now Big top Carousel Cotton candy Where am I? Fun house Acrobat Fortune teller All of me, all fades away Dummy says My dear friend Here you stand My right hand Dummy says 'Til the end My dear friend My right hand The circus left without me The circus left without me And I'm alone with you now And I'm alone with you now And I'm alone with you now And I'm alone with you now 07. Angel Rat
The idiot walks along a canvas
Sunday rendezvous; mister phobia "Maybe, today Fear will go away, I'll fly!" A gruesome rain, a seraph wailing Flapping madly, shaking on the wing "Listen, my friend Never look down from the cliff" "Take care, beware! Do try to catch the eclipse" Obsession, the will to fly It would be nice Still, a nagging doubtful mind It will be fine Straight ahead half luna shines Now is the time Here comes darkness Distanced from above Bold emptiness Omniscient fog Obsession, the will to fly It would be nice Still, a nagging doubtful mind It will be fine Straight ahead half luna shines Now is the time Up on the edge Ready! one, two... go! Rat or angel Does one really know? The idiot walk along a canvas 08. Golem
I know, I know, from the assembly line
I know, I know, the three laws of my type I was not made to smile I was not built to lie I ask my positron self I ask my positron self Why am I born apart? We work alone inside the big dome There's no reason for my eyes to glow Every night, every morning Every day I know, I know, all data and functions I know, I know, the power of the sun I don't care what I am I am the never man I ask my kindred spirit I ask my kindred spirit Why do I dream of kites? We work alone inside the big dome There's no reason for my eyes to glow Every night, every morning Every day Whatever to serve my master Anything to save my master Whatever to serve my master Anything to save my master Whatever to serve my master Anything to save my master Whatever to serve my master Anything to save my master I know, I know, the passage of my time I know, I know, the same old daily grind I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know I know 09. The Outcast
Doorway in sight
Not a second too late Into the night Siren, spot light Wailing wolves at the gate Into the night Mad dog patrol Roaming 'round the grounds and All set to go Hiding alone Somewhere from the blood hounds All set to go Running all day, in every direction Finding his way, to civilization Everything's gonna work out Yes, everything's gonna work out He used to stand by his window, you know The view was so good, he wanted to go And now that he's back on those same old streets He's locked in again, and falls on his knees [Solo] Running away That is all that he knows Time and again He fades away And forgets where he goes Time and again Running all day, in every direction Finding his way, to civilization Everything's gonna work out Yes, everything's gonna work out 10. Nuage Fractal
All under one command
Clouds overcast the land Infinite division Chaotic creation Patterns of flat spiral Spinning a triangle Wind on the schizosphere Nuage fractal appears Out there Dynamic intruder Mutating whole numbers Systems are compromised Viruses organize One simple memory In every theory All random elements Become determinants Out there Out there lives someone Pirate space kingdom We get lost In this chaos Too soon for us To be in touch Tomorrow we will know Something about the code Salvation's on it's way In the light of today Cloud of all destiny Ghost of reality Nobody can detect The butterfly effect Out there Out there lives someone Pirate space kingdom We get lost In this chaos Too soon for us To be in touch So we get lost In this chaos Too soon for us To be in touch 11. Freedoom
The red grass, up to my knees
An aura comes towards me Someone's changed the formula Un-chaining another law The structures, the colors Uniform chaos is alternating Uniform chaos is alternating The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things Immense inertia Nearly nirvana Is this quest forever? Oceans of motion A field of questions I won't last forever I won't last forever I won't last forever I won't last forever I won't last forever The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things The nature of things 12. None Of The Above
We'll be back, right after this
Following the story On my monitor No more saving glory Only flat colors Black and white distortion Back and forth all day A fine-tuned deception I am shocked in waves It just brings me down It just brings me down Looks just like the same song And the same old dance Who is right? What is wrong? Where's the second chance? Storm the desert home-land This one's gone too far We hold peace in one hand In the other...war! It just brings me down It just brings me down [Solo] So, every channel's the same Same weird game show quiz What future? For who's gain? And the answer is? A. Global destruction B. Blown-up in flames C. Polluted oceans D. Seas of disease None of the above! None of the above! None of the above! None of the above! None of the above! None of the above! |
