01. Messiah

Liberate vosmet ex inferis, ex inferis
Liberate vosmet ex inferis, ex inferis

Do you remember, do you remember who you are?
Just a pretender, just a pretender who has gone too far
Don't try to tell me, don't try to sell me this is Jesus' way
Good luck, you'll need it bad, you'll need it bad come judgment day

No, I don't buy what you say, no, I don't buy what you say

You're no messiah, you're no messiah
You've set them all on fire but I can't keep on living in denial
You're no messiah, you're no messiah
I used to think you were but you are nothing but another liar

Do you remember, do you remember all those lies you told?
You selfish gambler, you sold your friends, you'd trade your soul for gold
But I will never fall for all your bullshit again, no, I won't
No, I don't care what you say no more

No, I don't buy what you say, no, I don't buy what you say
No, I don't buy what you say, shut the hell up, just go away

You're no messiah, you're no messiah
You've set them all on fire but I can't keep on living in denial
You're no messiah, you're no messiah
I used to think you were but you are nothing but another liar

You're no messiah, you're no messiah
You've set us all on fire but I can't keep on living in denial
You're no messiah, you're no messiah
I used to think you were but you are nothing but another liar
No, you're nothing but a liar, no, no, no
You're no messiah, you're no messiah
I used to think you were but you are nothing but another liar

02. As I Slowly Bleed

Hunted and hopeless I'm trying to escape a world that's coming after me
I have been struck by a barrage of hate and not a soul on earth could rescue me

How did it get this far and where did I go wrong?

As I slowly bleed the whole world's after me
When I close my eyes I feel them coming
I slowly bleed, they're closing in on me
I am scared but I must keep on running
So red the street as I slowly bleed

Fallen and helpless, still trying to wake up, wake up from what I hope is just a dream
Instead I'm staring at reality raising its ugly head and not a soul on earth could rescue me

Why did it get this far and where did I go wrong?
Did I cause the pain to deserve this?

As I slowly bleed the whole world's after me
When I close my eyes I feel them coming
I slowly bleed, they're closing in on me
I am scared but I must keep on running
So red the street as I slowly bleed

Out for the count, come and get me now, out for the count come and hit me now
Out for the count, come and kill me now, I'm waiting
Out for the count, come and get me now, out for the count, come and hit me now
Out for the count, come and kill me now, I'm waiting for you

As I slowly bleed the whole world's after me
When I close my eyes I feel them coming
I slowly bleed, they're closing in on me
I am scared, I am scared
So red the street, so red the street, so red the street as I slowly bleed

03. Fly Away With Me

Will we remember, where have the memories gone
What are we here for, how can we know
Who will we turn to, what's in the future of ours
What lies ahead of us, where will we go?

Fly away with me and find me something to believe
You can feel it in the air somehow
Fly away with me and find a dream to live right now
You can feel it anywhere
Fly away with me, come take my hand and feel it now
It is everywhere

Where do we come from, what are we going to be
Will there be better days, how can we know
Who will we run to, what's in the future of man
Who can we turn to, where will we go?

Fly away with me and find me something to believe
You can feel it in the air somehow
Fly away with me and find a dream to live right now
You can feel it anywhere
Fly away with me, come take my hand and feel it now
It is everywhere

See the world through the eyes of a child
And tell me what you feel
Say, don't you see what we need?

Fly away with me and find me something to believe
You can feel it in the air somehow
Fly away with me and find a dream to live right now
You can feel it anywhere
Fly away with me, come take my hand and feel it now
It is everywhere

04. You Killed Me

Down I go, a heart's been shot, you already left the scene
Tell me why this had to die, did my dreams play tricks on me?

Whatever happened to us, where did we go wrong?
And what happened to the love, where did we go wrong?

You killed me, you killed me
You killed my love, my everything
You killed me, you killed me
You killed my everything

Silence screaming in my face as I slowly bleed
The only sound I hear is hope as it shuts the doors on me

Whatever happened to us, where did we go wrong?
And what happened to the love, where did we go wrong?

You killed me, you killed me
You killed my love, my everything
You killed me, you killed me
You killed my everything

05. Live To Fight Another Day

Searching for you, running round in circles all the time
I can't find you, guess I'll have to keep on running yet another mile
Endless searching, still I won't quit believing you'll be mine
I will find you, I will find you, even if it means I'm searching till the day I die

I'll live to fight another day for you
And I'm gonna find a way to you
I'll live to fight another day for you
One day I'm gonna find my way to you

I will keep on searching, keep on looking for you all my life
Till I find you, till I find you, even if it means I'm searching till the end of time

I'll live to fight another day for you
And I'm gonna find a way to you
I'll live to fight another day for you
One day I'm gonna find my way to you

I'll live to fight another day for you
And I'm gonna find a way to you
I'll live to fight another day for you
One day I'm gonna find my way to you

I'll live to fight another day
I'll live to fight another day
I'll live to fight another day
One day I'm gonna find my way to you

06. Eyes Of A Stranger

Inducas nos in tentationem
Ne inducas nos in tentationem

What to do now, where to go now, what to try now?
I must confess I am impressed, that one's a knockout
What I feel seems so surreal, should be illegal
How 'bout me trying to be a goody good girl?
That don't bother me at all

I like his game, I'm all aflame, that's what it's all about
I should resist but I insist I get my share now
Want some of this, want some of that before it's sold out
I am free, this is me being a bad girl
I can stop it anytime

Falling into the eyes of a stranger
Running into a fistful of danger
I dive headfirst into the fire to serve the altar called desire
Falling into the eyes of a stranger
I throw myself into dark realms of danger
Like dancing blindfold on a high wire, I'm craving for this stranger's fire

What to do now, where to go, how 'bout another game?
I must confess I am obsessed, want more of the same
Need more of this, need more of that before it's over
I am trapped, I am lost, I am falling
Can't control it anymore

Now he's gone, it seems so wrong, I'm starving somehow
Guess how it feels, take it from me, it's a bad deal
I need a fix, I need it quick, I need it right now
I am free, I am being a very bad girl
And I'm coming back for more

Falling into the eyes of a stranger
Running into a fistful of danger
I dive headfirst into the fire to serve the altar called desire
Falling into the eyes of a stranger
I throw myself into dark realms of danger
Like dancing blindfold on a high wire, I'm craving for this stranger's fire

07. Thanks For Nothing

So you think you're smart
I recommend you check again cause you are not
I should have seen your true colors right from the start
Well, better late than never

I'll try to make this quite clear
It ain't pretty but at least I am being sincere
Ya ready? I got something to get off my chest
If only for the record

Thx 4 nth / Thx 2 u / Thx 4 nthn
I'm so glad we're thru
Thx 4 nthn / F u 2 / Thx 4 nthn
I'll run over u

So you think you're God
I recommend you check again, you're just a fraud
I finally called your bluff, now I'll rough you up
Well, better late than never

I'll try to make this quite clear
It ain't pretty but at least I am being sincere
Ya ready? I got something to get off my chest
If only for the record

Thx 4 nth / Thx 2 u / Thx 4 nthn
I'm so glad we're thru
Thx 4 nthn / F u 2 / Thx 4 nthn
I'll run over u

I tried to make this quite clear
It ain't funny but at least I was being sincere
Ya got me? Well, I think I'll just tell you again
If only for good measure

Thx 4 nth / Thx 2 u / Thx 4 nthn
I'm so glad we're thru
Thx 4 nthn / F u 2 / Thx 4 nthn
I'll run over u

08. Turn The World Around

Come and enter my life, come and change everything from within
Come and penetrate my mind, come and resurrect what might have been

Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and break it, turn it inside out
Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and shake it, turn it upside down
Turn the world around
Come, bring it down, come, bring the whole place down
Turn the world around

Come and enter my mind, come, eradicate the demons in me
Come and resurrect my life, come and rescue the rest of me

Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and break it, turn it inside out
Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and shake it, turn it upside down
Turn the world around
Come, bring it down, come, bring the whole place down
Turn the world around

Burn the whole place down, burn it to the ground
Burn the whole place down and dive into the fire
Burn the whole place down, burn it to the ground
Burn it down, burn it down, then rearise
Burn the whole place down, burn it to the ground
Burn the whole place down to build it up again
Burn the whole place down, burn it to the ground
Burn it down now!

Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and break it, turn it inside out
Turn the world around
Come on, bring it down and shake it, turn it upside down
Turn the world around
Come, bring it down, come, bring the whole place down
Turn the world around

09. Higher

I don't care 'bout the stars, I don't care about trips to Mars
And I don't care 'bout Venus, no I don't care 'bout flying to the moon
There's better things to do between me and you, we are

Higher, right here, right now, we're higher
Much higher than the highest star in the universe
We're higher, inside the fire burns, yes it burns

I don't want you to catch a star for me, don't want to own the galaxy
And I don't want no diamonds in the sky, no I don't want you to fly me to the moon
There's better things to do between me and you, we are

Higher, right here, right now, we're higher
Much higher than the highest star in the universe
We're higher, inside the fire burns

Comets blazing, burning red, supernovas in my head
Suns erupting millionfold and the galaxies explode

Higher, right here, right now, we're higher
Much higher than the highest star in the universe
We're higher, inside the fire burns, yes it burns

10. Victoria

Feel the moment, it's time to begin, see your path into the light
Hear the roar of the world coming in
Now rise and make this your time: Victoria!

Victoria, imperium, concordia in aeternum
Victoria et gaudium in saecula saeculorum
Victoria, imperium, concordia in aeternum
Victoria et gaudium in saecula saeculorum

Here it is, your one moment in time, make them remember your name
Tear it up, this is your time to shine
Now scream as loud as you can: Victoria!

Victoria, imperium, concordia in aeternum
Victoria et gaudium in saecula saeculorum
Victoria, imperium, concordia in aeternum
Victoria et gaudium in saecula saeculorum

11. (How Can Something So Good) Hurt So Bad

Here we stand, our time is up and the world just seemed to stop
The end is knocking on the door now
Tell me why love had to die and tell me, why did you decide
To leave me shattered on the floor?

How can something so good hurt so bad?
How can a smile make your soul feel so sad?
How come my heart's crying tears of red?
How can the best thing in life you ever had hurt so bad?

Heart's been broken, heart's been lost since you nailed it to the cross
And cut it open with a dagger
I don't want it, it's all hurt and without you it don't work
Just leave me shattered on the floor

How can something so good hurt so bad?
How can a smile make your soul feel so sad?
How come my heart's crying tears of red?
How can the best thing in life you ever had hurt so bad?

If this is it, our last goodbye and our final serenade
Wish me well on my way to hell

How can something so good hurt so bad?
How can a smile make your soul feel so sad?
How come my heart's crying tears of red?
How can the best thing in life you ever had...?
How come that something so good hurts so bad?
How can a smile make your soul feel so sad?
How come my heart's crying tears of red?
How can the best thing in life you ever had hurt so bad?

12. The Eye Collector

Hello, lovely, here I come
A fairy tale has just begun
It's a dream you never had
Time for you to go to bed, sleep well

Hello, lovely, here I am
Come with me, my little lamb
45, the number's fine
Be a good girl, don't decline, don't decline

Hello, lovely, time to go
I'll make you the star of my little show
45, the number's good
Take one last bow, I think you should

Quadraginta et quinque

Hello, lovely, time is up
The fairy tale book's just been shut
And the dream you thought you had
Turned out to be real instead

Quadraginta et quinque

Hello, lovely, follow me
Step into my parlor please
Take a slice, I must insist
Come inside now, don't resist, don't resist

Hello, lovely, here we go
I'll take you to places nobody knows
45, the number's sweet
Now close your eyes and come with me

Follow me, follow me, follow me

Quadraginta et quinque

Could it be? Another clock?
Tickety toc, tick tickatoc
It ain't over, you were wrong
And the game goes on
