Tracks



01. Bright Eyes

Fool just another
Fool just another

I've been waiting
For signs of god

Create- enslaved- behaved-
Everything is out of control

Leave me alone
Isolation bears hope
There's something else waiting
A promised destiny
Freezing me
I feel restless and low
These days full of sadness
Had joyfully changed into fear

My freakshow will start tonight
Don't miss the right time

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Everything is out of control
Everything is out of control
In my future plans
Everything is out of control
Noone's left to hurt
Everything is out of control
Sorrow's gone away

Broken memories
Walking upstairs
Step by step
I see the whole world burning
The poet dies in Neverland
How it burns

Hey, mother stubborn
I really hate you
If you say yes I will say no
Ashes to ashes
But dust won't be dust
If you go there
I will go back

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
Betrayed by sunrise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Hey, father stubborn
You're young
And I'm young
I feel alone
Who really cares
Born into ashes
To lose all the games
With a smiling face

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
And dark dragons rise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

So I sit in my room today
Winter's here
In summer season shall I say
I was wrong
If I'm right
Farewell to my last hope

02. Mr. Sandman

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
Give him two lips like roses in clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over.

Sandman, I'm so alone.
Don't have nobody to call my own.
Please turn on your magic beam.
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
Give him the word that I'm not a rover
And tell him that him lonesome nights are over.

Sandman,(saxophone notes) I'm so alone.
Don't have nobody to call my own.
Please turn on your magic beam.
(whaaat?)
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.

Mister Sandman,(Yeees?) bring us a dream.
Give him a pair of eyes with a come-hither gleam
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
And lots of wavy hair like Liberace

Mister Sandman, someone to hold.
(Someone to hold.)
Would be so peachy before we're too old.
So please turn on your magic beam.
Mister Sandman, bring us,
Please, please, please,
Mister Sandman, bring us a dream.

03. Halleluja

Hallelujah

I am a preacher with a message for my people
Over the world, scratching on the ground
Looking for the peace that nobody has found

I am a spokesman for a better way of living
Love is the word and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung

Let me hear you sing, Hallelujah

Oh tell it to the man who's power is the sermon on the wall
Tell it to the man who says you can misjudge them all
Tell it 'till it can be heard above the wailing of the crowd
Tell it on the field of war and hope you'll soon be justified

There is a better way of life and it's not so hard to find
If you live and let the people in your world speak its mind

I am the pupil who sells his life for freedom
All over the world and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung

Hallelujah

04. Imaginations From The Other Side

Where are these silent faces? (You ought to know.)
I took them all away. (And now you're all alone.)
Turned out every light so deep in me.
Hold on, too late.

May I ever see them back again?
Or did they all die by my hand?
Or were they killed by the old evil ghost
Who had taken, taken
The ocean of all my dreams
Which were worth to keep
Deep inside my heart.
I wish I could get them back
From the everflow,
Back before I leave.

Imaginations from the other side.
(You would get answers, but there's none to find.)
Imaginations from the other side.
(You would get answers, but there's none to find.)
Out of the dark, into to the light.
And I will need myself (to) find back my heart.
Imaginations from the other side.

Where's the ocean's daughter?
Sends Peter Pan in Mordor.
No one's there to keep alive,
No one's there to keep alive.

No one's there to keep alive all these fairy tales.
May I return to Oz? Will I meet the "Tin Man"?
"Coward Lion", where are you?
And the scarecrow without brain will be lost without the key.
(Stranded in the real world.)
Lost in a world of inquisition. Lonesome path.
I've fallen through
Like all the others did before.
Why did I fail?

(I'll) never know
If Merlin did exist, or Frodo wore the Ring.
Did Corum kill the gods? Or where's the wonderland
Which young Alice had seen, or was it just a dream?
I knew the answers, now they're lost for me.

Imaginations from the other side...

I hope there is a way back with my talisman.
So I look into myself
To the days when I was just a child.
Come follow me to Wonderland,
And see the tale that never ends.
Don't fear the lion nor the witch.
And I can't come back
I'm lost.
And still I know there is another world.

Imaginations from the other side...

05. A Past And Future Secret

Oh, I haven't been here for a while
In blindness and decay
The circle's been closed, now

My song of the end
I've seen it all

Listen crowd
I'll tell you everything
Though I have to say
I don't know much
Talking about a past
And future secret
Most called him once
And future king
Far back in the past
I saw his ending
Long before it started
I knew his name
He's the one who took the sword
Out of the stone
It's how that ancient tale began
I hear it in the cold winds

My song of the end
I had seen it in my dreams
My song of the end
I can't stop the darkening clouds

I feel cold
When I cry out for the bark
Take him back to Avalon
Dwell on for a new age
So long sleep well my friend
Take him back to Avalon
I will wait and guard
The future king's crown

My song of the end
It was nice but now it's gone
My song of the end
It was fixed the whole time
My song of the end
I saw it all
