02. Paper Dragon

The wind was blowing in the streets
But only snow can follow him
In the world there was a creature
Living playing, its only pleasure
Water was the biggest enemy
til' the day of the great tragedy
Cause of damage was a foolish tool
A little evil toy made of wood

BRIDGE 1
Everything, in its hands
Cannot live, cannot die
We can only pray
Be awake, scan the dark
We can live, We can die
Show me the way!

Sadness was its lifeblood
Hatred flowing in its wooden heart
It went inside the toyshop
Arrogant, with a small sword
Was a dark knight without soul
Magic button made of pearl
A button to control them all
Giving life to every evil toy

Everything, in its hands
Cannot walk, cannot run
We can only cry
All the shop is alive
Good on left, evil right
Take a look over you!

CHORUS
That's the tale
of Paper Dragon
That's not a stupid lie
He rides the gale
He can save you
Believe in me
Beware of the evil wooden knight
Avoid to walk without friends
The sword of wood is very dangerous
It's hard to find a faithful friend

BRIDGE
Everything, in its hands
Cannot live, cannot die
We can only pray
Paper Dragon, save us
Use your wings, fly away
Throw down our fears!

CHORUS
It's hard to find?
It's very hard to find?
It's hard to find a faithful friend!

03. Take Your Chance

Alle:
Look into myself
Tried so hard, don't understand
If I'm right or wrong
If I will be strong enough
Going all the way
Without falling, day after day
Trying to improve
Don't forget to act with impulse

Michele:
How many times we have to stand
How many things we have to learn
How many sticks will block our wheels
While reality blows our dreams away
Hold on to the joy you felt as a child
So you can find your smile again
After the dark comes back the light
-Michele:
Know yourself
Find your virtues
Make them burn
Help your fortune

Alle:
Put a smile, don't trust misfortune
Looking for new adventures
-Michele:
Don't be scared
It's just like a game
Don't be afraid, now start to play

Alle:
Give your best until the end
Don't break down if you're losing your chance

Michele:
My train is running fast
How many miles I've run in vain
I won't buy any lies
Trying to find my ticket to ride
I've got to find the key
To disclose the door of my dreams
Ain't no waste of time
When you try to change for the better

Alle:
How many times we have to stand again
How many things we have to learn
After the night comes back the day

Know yourself
Find your virtues
Make them burn
Help your fortune
Put a smile, don't trust misfortune
Looking for new adventures
Don't be scared
It's just like a game
Don't be afraid, now start to play
Give your best until the end
When you're ready you'll be taking your chance

Alle: It's not easy to set your aim right
Michele: I had lost the reasons to play the game
Alle:The road ahead is paved with gold
Michele: Walk alone just make sure you don't fall

Know yourself
Find your virtues
Make them burn
Help your fortune
Smiling in the face of misfortune
Look up for a new adventure
Don't be scared, it's like a game
Don't be afraid, now start to play
Do your best until the end
When you're ready you'll be taking your chance

04. Freedom

We don't need a reason
to look for a god to pray
all the mistakes we have made
now they take control

if we have a secret
we burn deep in our mind
we never trust each other
we have surrended

trust is the only way
to break all the chains
we fight and die for
a reason

freedom of toughts in your mind
take the pain and the fear you hide
over there is love and life
make your choice it's not too late to be
if you think with your mind

we have time to return
we have time to change the rules
but there's so many ways
leading us to freedom

never use the power
of your arm to take control
but they can't trust each other
they are in trouble

if we stay united we can win it all forever
'cause we won't be alone forever

05. Hello Moon

We never know
When we'll come back home
Another day is coming
End's just an empty word

We catch this moment to the end of night
But we are looking for our peace of mind

BRIDGE
One further reason for the trust and your regret
And your last goodbye will give us some pain
No more nightmares no more wasted time
More than words, what we're feeling now

CHORUS
Take a look up to the sky
1. To the meaning of this time
Reach the rainbow over the highway's end (HELLO MOON)
Take a look into the night
We stay together and we'll see the light and another time (HELLO MOON)

After all
The moon shows us her smile
In the dark we see the stars as our guides
Looking back, we'd never change our choices
And the future will not change our voices

BRIDGE

CHORUS
Take a look up to the sky
2. We are fighting the moonlight
Reach the rainbow over the highway's end (HELLO MOON)
Take a look into the night
We stay together and we'll see the light and another reason (HELLO MOON)

Looking out there's something waiting for us here
today we'll find the reason to believe in ourselves
VARIATION
Throw away
All your fears and pain (aches)
Stay awake
and Run 'til the end
Find your way
More than ever you can feel your reasons
You will be alive
CHORUS

06. Elevator To The Sky

hear some voices in my head,
is it real or am I mad?
telling me that I must
walk straight 'til the end

walking on this empty street
is it real or just a dream?
flash of white on the horizon

now I can see, elevator made of light
that's leaving soon for the high
(CHORUS)
Step inside, look around
rocket speeds from the ground
running fast to the sky
on this heavenly night
take a look at my life
saw my every lie
passing floor number one
to the sky

See the future and the past
heart is burning in my chest
highest trial my soul has ever passed

don't know where the journey ends
don't know when I'm coming back
but my life will never be the same

now I am riding the elevator to the sky
it shows me the days of my life

step inside, look around
rocket speeds from the ground
running fast to the sky
on this heavenly night
take a look way back
realize all that shit
passing floor number two
to the sky

now the Ghost laid his hand over me
I was blind, I was sure everything was right
I feel that the elevator has gone to the end
my sins have bought me a ticket to hell

step inside, look around
rocket speeds from the ground
running fast to the sky
on this heavenly night
take a look way back
realize all that shit
passing floor number three
to the sky

07. Loser Song

welcome to my obsessed world,
trying to give the best the people want from me
i'm not so cool to leave the school
and rock and ride all day and night..no no!

life is not easy for me,
I know I'm singing alone
(chorus)
this is the loser song, a reason to forget
'cause I know i'm giving more respect to what I get
someone of you will be amused 'bout what i'm saying
but hold your laughter , fate is cruel every day

my life is full of empty rooms
after all there's only people looking cool
but now the fate can change again
it turns away and leaves you filled with pain

life is not easy for you,
I know I'm not singing alone
(chorus)

you're trying to live your life better
and i know how you're feeling now
if you don't care bout what they're thinking of you
things will be better and you'll have no matters
so do your best and fuck all the rest

(chorus)
the loser song is just for you
the loser song is just for you..you..you!!

08. Tears Against Your Smile

ALLE:
Sometimes fate can be so cruel
filling days with joy and light
then just after a little time
throw(ing) us in the night
some strange paths of our lives are too difficult to cross

KISKE:
we must carry on
we must carry on
(chorus1)

-sorry if I can't believe what you did to me
never saw you cry, tears against your smile
sorry we don't understand troubles in your head
never saw you cry, tears against your smile

ALLE:
Sometimes people wanna try and act so strange
hiding problems deep inside
cause they fear to be wrong
to take a look and face their fragile side
I'll remember you when I'll feel alone
but I'll never understand why

KISKE:
you didn't carry on
didn't carry on

ALLE:
-sorry if I can't believe what you did to me
never saw you cry, tears against your smile
sorry we don't understand troubles in your head
never saw you cry, tears against your smile

KISKE:
if you could see all the pain you left inside us
if I could turn back, I wouldn't let you run away so fast
'cause you were so generous and full of life
someone else now can live, and you keep watchin' on us with your smile
ALLE:
sorry if I can't believe what you did to me
never saw you cry, tears against your smile
sorry we don't understand all the troubles in your head
never saw you cry, tears against your smile
KISKE:
sorry if I can't believe what you did to me
never saw you cry, tears against your smile
sorry we don't understand troubles in your head
never saw you cry, tears against your smile

09. Final Destination

From the day I was born
I remember my thoughts
I'm in fight with myself
between joke and fear

please let me be myself
don't make me fall down
too much death I've seen around

I can't escape
I'm bound

storyteller says
I've seen too much to live
before to die- I should be dead

It' s a strange déjà-vu or is it revelation?
illusion, we're going to final destination
destiny is wrong
I lived as if I was dead
tell us how you think we can survive?
this is the truth

till tonight I was dead
I remember the fact
I'm in fight with myself
between joke and fear

please take me back again
when I was in the ground
Death lost too many rounds
She has no more bullets to shoot

if there's a place where we can stay alone in peace
I would be there between the angel the beast
life is a race where the winner gets the prize
but then the void takes all the trophys and waves farewell

11. Tin Soldiers Pt. 2

Few minutes to midnight
the toyshop is closed and so cold
"there is no life" you think
while every night the darkness hides something

toy-troopers in their boxes
they prepare to conquer the shop
"impossible" you think
while every night many tin soldiers fight

it's no fantasy
Step aside, this is not your war!

(chorus)
Fire with your guns
attack all at once
scan every shelf, use plastic shields
tin soldiers feel your breath
and the shop will be theirs
long is the night
many dolls will cry

they can't be turning back
they must bring the opposer on "crack!"
tin soldiers carry on
loading firecrackers on the spoons
the dolls they don't want this war, every time they suffer and say
"you're just like humans, fighting for nothing in a neverending war!"

(chorus)
(chorus)
