[Instrumental]

Hey Satan, here I am
It seems like you finally won
Four riders, here they come
Children of the earth, run

Crusaders from the west
Time has come to clean up this mess
Black robed hypocrites
Jesus words, you have twist and ripped

Crucifixion, hunger and plague
Has turned into an evil play
Blood is flowing like acid rain
Heresy Blasphemy, that´s your name

And your dirty power-mad urge
Has destroyed my holy church
You are not the ones to lead the blind
Only the penitent one will survive this time

Crucifixion, hunger and plague...

Having thoughts about eternal life
I think you are not
´Cause some day you´ll also die

Hey Satan, here I stand
It seems like you finally won
Four riders, here they come
Children of the earth, run

Crucifixion, hunger and plague...

I've been disowned
Yes I was alone
But I tell you now, baby, that´s cool

I have reached the point
Where it´s do or don´t
And I know you have been there too
Get ready to go

I have learned a million times
That a race ain´t run
Until the racing been done
I´m victorious, you better face down
Mine, the victory is Mine

There ain´t nobody like me
Can´t somebody just see
I´m ready to go

I have learned a million times...

Damn It´s Dark, and I feel severed
You and me used to be together
It´s insane it couldn´t be much better
But now it´s gone and it´s gone forever

But I know that we did right
When we ended this on time
Here I sit alone in the dark
Damn, you breaker of my heart

Damn It´s Dark, this is not real
Though it´s good I´ve got a really bad feeling
You like the sun, I like the shadow
You are the light, I am the dark matter

But I know that we did right...

The quiet night sky reveals a shooting star
Come help me with my blackened mind and my bleeding heart
Damn It´s Dark

Well, I´m sorry I drank too much whiskey
But I am the star
I´m fire, you´re gasoline baby
So why be around

You´re just a writer of yesterday´s news
You knew what to expect
Got no feelings of guilt
Got no feelings of shame
I´m the man, I´m the myth, I´m the wreck
The Man The Myth The Wreck

The Man The Myth The Wreck
I can see that you´re hurt
But I´m still in the spotlight
So thanks for the words

Your writing is nothing but yesterday´s news
You knew what to expect
No feelings of guilt
No feelings of shame
I´m the man, I´m the myth, I´m the wreck
The Man The Myth The Wreck

I don´t need to hide
All the gifts I have
You wanna hear some more
Here´s the score

I remember the day
When I learned to play
What a relief
Knowing this is me
When I enter the stage
Nothing feels strange
No it feels all right
Grief and guilt frustration died

I´m living my dream
The Audience Is Listening

This is insane
I don´t need to hide
The gifts I have
You wanna hear some more
Here´s the score
I was born to play
Grief and anger blown away

I´m living my dream...

I live a life unsatisfied
I must break everything I like
New mistakes, a piece of cake
I ran into the wall again
I have died a thousand times
I don´t know if I am alive

It´s that voice I hate again
I must obey
Desolate
You´re doing great

Scatterbrain, my middle name
I forced myself into this pain
Little girl, you´ve been hurt
Tell me who´s your daddy now

It´s that voice I hate again...

You stupid jerk, clean up your dirt
One day I know I have to learn
I live my life unsatisfied
And I break everything I love

It´s that voice I hate again...

The wind is blowing in the top of the pines
A gloomy sky where the sun never shines
You´re Deep In The Woods
The night is so cold and your lost, far from home

Inheritor of sorrow
You are doomed to walk these lands
This vast and lonely country
It has been formed by your own hands
Within these borders
The winters have grown colder
While the darkness is falling
You´re on your own, far from home

Though you hate the landscape
This is the place where you belong
To be alone in silence
Smoke your pipe until kingdom come
Inheritor of sorrow
Will you survive this horror
While the darkness is falling
You´re on your own, far from home

The wind is blowing in the top of the pines
A gloomy sky where the sun never shines
Deep In The Woods, where the night is so cold
You´re lost, far from home

I´m Frustrated
And here´s where everything must end
So frustrated
And you thought you knew me well
I´m not crazy
Screaming and shouting, that won´t help
´Cause I´m Frustrated
Please forgive me for what I said

I am absent minded, I don´t know what I do
Where are my keys, where did I put that bloody phone
I even don´t know how to find myself
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead

I´m Frustrated
I am tormented by myself
And I hate it
Why can´t I be like everybody else
I´m Frustrated
This is where everything must end

Light a candle for me, these patterns I must break
I must be strong instead of run away
I won´t get my relief until I´m dead
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead

This restlessness has made me to concede
What is wrong with me, why can´t I fall asleep
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead
I´ll get my inner peace when I´m dead

I´m a man with a fully function disorder
I´ve got balls enough to cover it up
If you´re prepared to stand the slaughter
I´m so Lonely
And I tell you why no bloody chance
That you in any way can control me

You say you really want to hold me
I´m to wild
I hate to say I told you so
I was right
You said I was the coldest
Cold as ice
But you can hold me
You can have me for a while

That´s just right, I´m not sober
That´s the way I like to be
Among people who don´t know me
I´m so Lonely
If you really like to have me around
You will have to stand my disorder

You say you really want to hold me...

I´m one of those who overdose
Got no thoughts about mortality
I love it
It´s a war for standing tall
To defend my personality
I love it
I´m in a race, won´t hesitate
It´s the Blackout Blues you hear
You love it

Self destruction
It's another form of control
At least it´s you
Who decide which way to go

I'm gonna sink another drink
Mind burning rocket fuel
I love it
I get a kick from feeling sick
And I puke on people like you
I love it
It's a race, don't hesitate
Let's play the Blackout Blues

Self destruction...

(Sonnet 29 by William Shakespeare, Read by Bertram Selwyn)

When, in disgrace with fortune and men´s eyes
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate
Wishing me like (to) one more rich in hope
Featured like him, like him with friends possess´d
Desiring this man´s art and that man´s scope
With what I most enjoy contented least
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising
Haply I think on thee, (and then my state
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven´s gate
For thy sweet love) remember´d such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings


(Sonnet 66 by William Shakespeare, Read by Bertram Selwyn)

Tired with all these, for restful death I cry
As, to behold desert a beggar born
And needy nothing trimm'd in jollity
And purest faith unhappily forsworn
And guilded honour shamefully misplaced
And maiden virtue rudely strumpeted
And right perfection wrongfully disgraced
And strength by limping sway disabled
And art made tongue-tied by authority
And folly doctor-like controlling skill
And simple truth miscall'd simplicity
And captive good attending captain ill
Tired with all these, from these would I be gone
Save that, to die
(I leave my love alone)
