There's a road in the middle of New York It's name is Wall Street For some the middle of the world They're speculators, brokers and others more Their day is ruled by the appointment book – therefore They can't afford to take a break Buying, selling at the time Highest sales make 'em feel so fine They can't resist to take each risk The account in Switzerland is too large to relax their mind Heroes, heroes, of the modern world Their life relies on securities and cash Heroes, heroes, of the modern world The drug that keeps 'em alive is their success They show no fear and are acting without feeling And when they fight financial power in their arm There's just one weakness, that really can destroy 'em Let's remember Black Friday in 1929 The stock price fell and found no end Panic in all markets of the world A frenzy destroying even the bold And so the heroes lost all their bucks Many took their own life Others vowed to give it one more try Heroes, heroes, of the modern world Their life relies on securities and cash Heroes, heroes, of the modern world The drug that keeps 'em alive is their success Heroes, heroes, of the modern world Their life relies on securities and cash Heroes, heroes, of the modern world The drug that keeps 'em alive is their success

I hate the way I feel, incomplete and unfulfilled Now I'm at the age, my life I must rebuild I must try to forget, my past that brought me here Released from that cage, please save me from my fear Shunned and pushed aside, at the mercy of their will Loneliness led to rage, fought back the urge to kill Now my turn is here, the picture is so clear Why'd it take so long to appear See the hell in my eyes What a life is that home of deception and lies Hell in my eyes I thank my parents for this terrible life The time is here, face your fear I had to win my fights, for acceptance from my peers If only I had known, there's no fight out here I have become quite sick, compressed anger to aggression Look into my eyes, stay away from my devastation Now my turn is here, the picture is so clear Why'd it take so long to appear See the hell in my eyes What a life is that home of deception and lies Hell in my eyes I thank my parents for this terrible life See the hell in my eyes What a life is that home of deception and lies Hell in my eyes I thank my parents for this terrible life

First rule in life we learn is integration At the age of seven I didn't show respect or fear, my teacher said get out of here This was not a special case An even that was repeated year after year All efforts to be disciplined failed from the beginning Cause my way was more fitting Corrections and punishments had to effect Driving me to a world of black First rule in life we learn is integration If you choose another way trouble is your friend Society can be an infection Killing and changing your own will The proof lies in the past At the age of eleven My friends gave up this fight, each trying to make me see the light But it was my life to run Authority's work was finally done All efforts to be disciplined failed from the beginning Cause my way was more fitting Corrections and punishments had to effect Driving me to a world of black First rule in life we learn is integration If you choose another way trouble is your friend Society can be an infection Killing and changing your own will All efforts to be disciplined failed from the beginning Cause my way was more fitting Corrections and punishments had to effect Driving me to a world of black First rule in life we learn is integration If you choose another way trouble is your friend Society can be an infection Killing and changing your own will The proof lies in the past Are you listening – what!!! Now pay attention – ha??? Don't break that rule – pff, phh, bah First rule in life we learn is integration If you choose another way trouble is your friend Society can be an infection Killing and changing your own will The proof lies in the past

Along that road You're one of a lot, that really make me hot, but I'm just watching you You spread your legs Making a few dollars pleasing men Who wear white collars I can't comprehend why you are standing there I'm sure you don't want that job forever Please keep in your mind Time will never change it alone, never alone And I know, when the moment will come, it will be too late To return I can imagine You as a model picking out the jobs others would fight for You could make a slave out of every rich guy You can mesmerize with your appearance With your smile you could have everything Time gets close, don't forget to take your chance Please keep in your mind Time will never change it alone, never alone And I know, when the moment will come, it will be too late To return Please keep in your mind Time will never change it alone, never alone And I know, when the moment will come, it will be too late To return

In the Orient there once was a city – Babylon Founded in 3000BC, with fast growing strength It survived several wars, many kings ruled in it's walls A glorious place that was erupting with great power and might They wanted to be equal to their gods Marduk was one of them They wanted to reach for the sky To see the life of the gods A tower would be made, an instrument for them to have a look into heaven So it's written down, the tower is a fact something has to be true Babylon, a legend that will never die Babylon, a warning for everyone who wants to reach the sky Years later they have reached a level around 300 feet The gods did not approve of their people's deeds They punished them and gave 'em different languages, So they couldn't talk to each other This was the consequence of being arrogant and proud Maybe we can learn a lesson from it Babylon, a legend that will never die Babylon, a warning for everyone who wants to reach the sky Stone on stone Step by step Ever forever But never, no never, never higher and higher And higher and higher and higher and higher Babylon, a legend that will never die Babylon, a warning for everyone who wants to reach the sky

See, there are two fighting hearts who a searching for a start Hoping to find the paradise, but they don't know if they'll arrive Surrounded and assaulted by distrust and hate No other chance, it's clear, they must escape They know their way is long, but their misery makes them strong In the world of wars, which are the ulcers of mankind They can't bear it any longer Where is these place of happiness, this place of love Looking for someone who'll show 'em the way Where is the sign searching for so long to find Suddenly a shifting from appears out of nothing They see two shining eyes An iron first knocks at the door A second glance back the eyes are gone The time has come to start He's a man behind the mask who has a rainbow in his eyes He's the hope without him there's no chance to find the way The garden of Eden now can't be far away There's no time to waste, the journey must begin With confidence and courage, they're walking hand in hand They paid their fare on the ferry of freedom Along with hunger and misery they leave behind 'em The corrupted world To reach the place of delight and deliverance And when the time has come, finally they can live in fun When they reach the garden of Eden Man behind the mask, man behind the mask All people could live side by side No war, no death, no fight Evil and madness rule the world But people don't see that it may be their end Thunder and lightning make their way difficult When they're sailing 'cross the seven seas They lost their light but despair drives them on The other end of the rainbow has disappeared They suffer from exhaustion, they have lost sight of their hope What if the garden doesn't exist But they can't turn so the voyage must go on Maybe they will never reach their aim Along with hunger and misery they leave behind 'em The corrupted world To reach the place of delight and deliverance And when the time has come, finally they can live in fun When they reach the garden of Eden Man behind the mask, man behind the mask

I walked through the streets near by my hotel The taxi dropped me a few minutes ago And in my mind, our last years passed like a movie The show tonight was great again We played our frustrations out right to the end I know we would choose the same tainted way, cause Music is a gate It's an opening to our fate It's a feeling that binds us strong Music is the gate We were passing straight Holding our lives together with our song Most quit their jobs with no idea where they're going No compromise was the law We fought against our plight, never knowing if we'd win that fight The answer's lying in the hand of time We'll take all chances we can get to go on But we'll never forget what really drives us on It's the music that is a gate It's an opening to our fate It's a feelings that binds us strong Music is the gate We were passing straight Holding our lives together with our song Many people say, hey now you are superstars Others mention that it's all a lucky break But on the first rung of the ladder Is where we are standing now Starting the climb we won't ever regret Music is a gate It's an opening to our fate It's a feeling that binds us strong Music is the gate We were passing straight Holding our lives together with our song Music is a gate It's an opening to our fate It's a feeling that binds us strong Music is the gate We were passing straight Holding our lives together with our song

You throw your machine into gear The engine's ringing in your ears Red-yellow-green light you pop the clutch screaming away Burning rubber as you sneer Seconds click your opponents fears First-second-third-fourth a quarter mile is done – the triumph is yours Top fuel, there is no stop Dragsters racing, what a drug There is no better high The blur of the audience as you fly by Second shaved off my time Blink of an eye – the finish line Black and white – checkered flag Engines stop and reality snaps back Top fuel, there is no stop Dragsters racing, what a drug There is no better high The blur of the audience as you fly by Top fuel, there is no stop Dragsters racing, what a drug There is no better high The blur of the audience as you fly by, as you fly by

Sometimes I wonder what is wrong I don't wanna say we're sorry for a song we are not the scapegoat for society what we do is lawful, our music must stay free You say our influence is bad for your young Our music can't explain the stupid things they've done Their own incapacity drives some into crime we are not responsible for what happens in our time [Chorus]: Violence is just not our name Suicide's not our game Society's searching for someone to blame Don't turn your head in shame Pointing your fingers but only in the air Now don't you see this isn't really fair Our music isn't the problem that you seek It's the discipline you don't instill that makes them weak [Chorus] It's you, not us, it's you, not us, it's you, not us, it's you [Chorus]
