I walked the path for a million times
And got my water from the well Into the magic of the morning sun My sleeping fire starts to burn Should I glow for a better day? Just twists and turns in the dark? Or should I go on another way? To feel the blood in my veins I close my eyes again - cause I changed my life To realize no need for a bitter end When all my troubles seem so far away And all my pain has come to sense A searching soul inside a faithless world A fool to cry rules the land Should I scream in a poisoned haze? With fear and hate in the dark Or did I stumble into another day? To scratch the blood in my hands I close my eyes again - cause I changed my life i close my eyes again - cause I changed my life To realize no need for a bitter end 02. Lost
So strong - so wrong
So dark and cold inside You cried but I will try The day when all seems lost and gone It´s a world of sad temptation A world of burning emptiness My head - is so dead I feel like someone washed my brain The day we should have met the change we never had the day I felt that you´ve been gone It´s a world of sad temptation And a world that´s cold inside Lost in silence - found my words on the run Cause I am lost in silence Put my life into the hands of fate So strong - so wrong So dark and cold inside The words we never read, the truth we never said The day when all is lost and gone It´s a world of sad temptation And a world that´s cold inside [Chorus] 03. Tele Box Fool
Channel I has love and passion
Channel II sells sex and crime Soaps and games and fools in heaven Wash your brain and steal your time Make a call and win some money Shake your legs and squeeze your voice Have a jack or milk with honey You have the choice All in all the time is right to cry and turn all the lies All in all on a day to break the rules The tele box fool Channel III they praise the reckless Channel IV they freeze in hell Tunes or words so dumb and senseless Dreams today have souls to sell Give a call and take new credits Here´s your drink - wanna by some shirt? The more you want the less you´ll get it It's all mud and dirt [Chorus] 04. Ice And Fire
My life has been lost in shadows
My thoughts have gone up in smoke The days that we´ve spent out on meadows Increased all my fear and hopes Can´t have for fame and glory Just keep what I rarely get Before I will tell my whole story I bless all the friends I have had Fight for the things that you´ll never forget in your life Walking on ice and fire And creeping on poisoned grounds Still longing for same desires Feel that I´m still around In touch to what I really was Dreams were going so wrong now I feel my breathing has slowed down Running in circles and losing my path Running around with a mask Remember my poor desperation The time I was down in dirt I saw that a godless creation Can do things that really hurt Fight for the things that you´ll never forget in your life [Chorus] Run before they can come It´s better to hide and leave all your dreams behind Cause man is cruel, is a beast is fighting the truth Commits the most vicious crimes Life is so hard when you find out The beast in the average men So run before they´ve begun before They can rape and turn out the beast in you And go on the top of a hill find out That you see your fate is your life in truth Fight for the things that you´ll never forget in your life [Chorus] 05. Soldiers Of Fortune
Because of the open fire
See when the tin soldier is falling Giving up ideas of your peace desire Feels like you´re losing control It needs a cry when they force you to kill a child And tell you instructions to murder It needs no try to feel when you shoot to strangers The fear when the army is calling Take my advice and run for your life Run before the war has begun Before the freedom is gone And trust your way as soldiers of fortune Come and shelter me from the flames From places poison remains Before they call you soldiers of war In the heat of a furious warfare battle The freeze as a soldier of passion There is no need to regret if your mind´s mistrusting Run and fight for your freedom Take my advice and run for you life [Chorus] See the thin soldiers lose their fortune And blood that drops into ashes In the heat of a furious warfare battle If feels like you´re losing control Take my advice run for your life [Chorus] 06. The Sirens
Red leaves are falling
Cold passion all around A voice is calling Another perfect sound? If you´re on the edge of life Wish to hear the goddess rhyme from sympathy going to mystery The sirens will never be heaven sent again Somebody is in sirens hand Don´t trust them their justice is built on sand Cause sirens always lie The earth starts shaking And the world is breaking down The siren´s calling Your feet still touch the ground If you wish the test of time Wanna trust the goddess rhyme from sympathy going to mystery The sirens are never from heaven sent Cause somebody is still in the sirens hand Don´t trust them their justice is built on sand Cause sirens always lie [Chorus] 07. Scream For The Sun (May 29th 1953)
Ed spoke to god on top of the world
Fighting with mountain extremes Couldn´t reach the peak until the very last day Struggling different scenes Ed touched the sun in the mid of a day Feeling the grace of god It´s mother nature that has shown him the way A path to wash the sins away Snow romance at a place that man never saw Snow and cold on the way to go Ice and frost cut the light Let´s speak to god on top oft he world Fighting with mountain extremes Should reach the summit on the very last day Struggling different scenes Ed took the chance for the final assault A sherpa with him side by side He passed the point of a turning around Just longing for the goal Snow romance at a place that man never saw Snow and cold on the way to go Ice and frost cut the light Snow romance at a place that man never saw after dark Snow and cold on the way to go Ice and frost cut the light Scream for the sun Scream for the sun Scream for the sun Scream for the sun 08. Cannibal Nation
I saw the revolution coming
I watched the people on the street Remember all the days of fighting Until the institution bleeds Can´t stand the hopeless way to freedom The sense of life they let us know Another try for better seasons Remaining lies to let us go Please welcome the show! Behind the wall of a cannibal nation Inside a head where the passion remains Dream your dream of a civilization Without fear of pain Where did they hide the law of justice? Why did they scream: stand by your guns? Could you find out where all the dust is? Hope and pride of a seventh son Please welcome the show! Behind the wall of a cannibal nation Inside a head where the passions remains Dream your dream of a civilization The cannibal nation has gone Freedom is coming along The cannibal nation has gone Behind the wall of a cannibal nation Inside a head where the passions remains Dream your dream of a civilization Where all our souls are meant to be free 09. Sunrise
Falling - no life on earth
Feel the breeze of change and the twist of birth Fading - see me drifting all around Like the morning dew has kissed the ground See a world that turned to grey And keep the book of silence Leave the past and burn the page To cool the open flame Save me - when my desperation comes And all hope and glory start a game of hit and run Watch out - there is a shadow on the wall When the sun goes down you can hear the final call See my world has turned to grey And read my book of silence Leave the past and burn the page To cool the open flame Can´t you see the truth behind The race I never started The more I´ll get the more I´ll shine I'm hot like open flames Sunrise things come clear It´s the light that shines for a soul in the haze Sunrise expose the secrets Like a burning flame that heaven has made |
