The World Needs a Hero
Behind closed doors, all you live for is taking That double life of yours, has left your whole world shaking Who are you fooling? I know you hear the laughter Don’t you hear people talking? What is it you’re after? Uh Turn off your conscience Leave the world outside Nothing at all can ever make you feel That anything’s real, so you just disconnect Huh, the key to save yourself, if for nothing else A tongue can never hold, the truth of silence is golden With a broken heart Underneath all of the pain Do you stroke the pretty scars? The hurt never ends, uh Turn off your conscience Leave the world outside Nothing at all can ever make you feel That anything’s real, so you just disconnect Turn off your conscience Leave the world outside Nothing at all can ever make you feel That anything’s real, anything’s real, so you just Turn off your conscience Leave the world outside Nothing at all can ever make you feel That anything’s real, so you just disconnect

The tides of change pulled us apart, I feel a familiar pain It seems like years since we’ve loved or even liked and that’s a lonely way to be Drifting alone in a sea of agony, your face I can’t recognize Don’t make this hard on us, I will miss you if you just go away I did no right, did no wrong Nothing left but wasted days I regret you leaving But I will never take you back -You know what? It’s over I just don’t feel the same way as I used to We’ve been together forever But it’s over, it’s over, it’s over Goodbye, 1000 times goodbye The thought never crossed my mind That this would be my last goodbye Let me put pennies on your eyes And kiss your lips one last goodbye My love, 1000 times goodbye It seems nothing good is free, a good thing cost much more than the price You were good but not that good, don’t kid yourself, now it’s time to break up Drifting alone in a sea of agony, your face I can’t recognize Don’t make this hard on us, I will miss you if you just go away I did no right, you did no wrong Nothing left but wasted days I regret you leaving But I’ll never take you back -Don’t call me anymore, it’s just not I don’t feel the same about you It’s not as good as it used to be Used to be, used to be Goodbye, 1000 times goodbye The thought never crossed my mind That this would be my last goodbye Let me put pennies on your eyes And kiss your lips one last goodbye My love, 1000 times goodbye Goodbye, 1000 times goodbye The thought never crossed my mind That this would be my last goodbye Let me put pennies on your eyes And kiss your lips one last goodbye My love, 1000 times goodbye -I’ll always love you, but just not like that -Like what? -I wanna be honest with you, I met someone else -You did what? -And I really, I really love him, like I used to love you, remember the time that I told you, that I was going out of town for business? Well, I went to see him -You know what? You suck! Goodbye 1000 times -You’ll always have a special place in my heart, you know that, it’s just, I can’t be with you anymore, it’s over Goodbye 1000 times -Things may not work out with him Goodbye 1000 times -And if they don’t Goodbye 1000 times -Then I’ll certainly call you Goodbye 1000 times -You mean a lot to me, I still really want to be friends with you, I love you like you’re my brother

You give up on yourself Somehow you got betrayed again Thin ice and luck runs out Who will you blame it on this time? And due to a lack of interest in you The light at the end of the tunnel was turned off And something I’ve noticed Beating you is thrilling me, I’ve got a secret for you If you took your own direction If only you practice what you preach If you follow your advice You wouldn’t be burning bridges all the time Don’t close your eyes to injustice Listen, being brave ain’t chicken shit A man without any valor Has nothing worth living for And due to a lack of interest in you The light at the end of the tunnel was turned off And something I’ve noticed Beating you is thrilling me, I’ve got a secret for you If you took your own direction If only you practice what you preach If you follow your advice You wouldn’t be burning bridges all the time If you took your own direction If only you practice what you preach If you follow your advice You wouldn’t be burning bridges all the time If you took your own direction If only you practice what you preach If you follow your advice You wouldn’t be burning bridges all the time

Two hearts that shouldn’t talk to each other, become close In a town much like a prison cell People speak our names on the street in hushed tones Of the stories they’d tell, if anyone would listen, if anyone would listen You come from a town where, people don’t bother saying hello Unless somebody’s born or dies And I come from a place where they drag your hopes through the mud Because their own dreams are all dying And when we walk down the street The wind sings our name in rebel songs The sounds of the night should make us anxious But it’s much too late when the fear is gone Uh! I will meet you in the next life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise There’s so many fighting to get past the pearly gates But nobody ever wants to die or get saved Their intentions aren’t that good and I can smell the asphalt That’s their personal road to hell being paved And when we walk down the street The wind sings our names in rebel songs And it’s much too late when the fear is gone I will meet you in the next life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise, uh I will meet you in the next life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise

Each day my shortcomings pick my pockets My faults were letters carved in stone As meaningful to you as words written in water I’m left to walk this world alone In a broken mold they made me, the black sheep of the family Worth less than zero, my opinion and room temperature I.Q. I did something, now I’m nothing, always wrong with this or that Poisoned with fear, watch it twist, my measly brain mad Talk about me when my back is turned Next time we meet, it will be to late The memory burned in my ears of what you said And now I’ve got a recipe for hate, taste it Dark clouds on the horizon, make it hard to breathe A walking mistake but every time I run away I just come back for more, the choice is clear, I can quit And fall on my sword or light a fire to see who runs or stays and plays the confidence game I’m feeling quite invisible, I feel just like thin air The truth taunts me, that nobody wants me I see the earth below me, I watch it spin there Does someone, somewhere, out there hear me? Sentenced to walk in purgatory, my life is running down I can’t believe what they’ve done to me I’m left riding a warhorse A man without a country

One man, speaking the truth, no one likes when it fits So we tell soothing lies and betray our own lips The uncivilized world and its people decay One sweet breeze is defiled, sucking our breath away Yesterdays answers Has nothing to do With todays questions Life can only be understood, in reverse But must be lived forwards I’m losing my senses I’m losing my senses And we watch, as the living, all die Contemplating if we should, ever open our eyes If all that we touch, keeps turning to sand We will cease to exist, until the last living man Yesterdays answers Has nothing to do With todays questions Life can only be understood, in reverse But must be lived forwards Life can only be understood, in reverse But must be lived forwards, I’m losing my senses Yesterdays answers Has nothing to do With todays questions Life can only be understood, in reverse But must be lived forwards Life can only be understood, in reverse But must be lived forwards

Let me introduce myself, I’m a social disease I’ve come for your wealth, leave you on your knees No time for feeling sorry, I got here on my own I won’t ask for mercy, I choose to walk alone What’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine too If you shake my hand better count your fingers What if I do get caught? What if there is no judgment? If I’m right I loose nothing, if youre right I loose it all I ought to get caught because I’m doing something wicked I’m guilty haunted by my fear and the only consequences are dread and the fugitive mind You built walls to protect you, so no one will infect you Pursued by those out there, that vanish in thin air Come a long way to find, what you really left behind You don’t know when the end is, but it’s coming fast Whats yours is mine and whats mine is mine too If you shake my hand better count your fingers What if I do get caught? What if there is no judgment? If I’m right I loose nothing, if youre right I loose it all I ought to get caught because I’m doing something wicked I’m guilty haunted by my fear and the only consequences are dread and the fugitive mind

This track is instrumental.
Welcome to an empty fortress A mighty wreck that once was proud Ate alive by oxidation Abandoned by a crew of cowards Navigation systems failed Computers crashed and they all fall down Possibly I’ve seen too much Hangar 18, I know too much All the guilty paid the price Suspended by their broken necks No one survived to tell the story When foreign life forms resurrect And military intelligence Is still two words that can’t make sense Possibly I’ve seen too much Hangar 18, I know too much

No one hears a word I say And my prayers are never answered But you’ll never see the pain inside of me Stabbing me over and over and over I trusted you and I loved you And you spit back in my face How could you do this to me? When will you stop trying to hurt me? I’ve walked a minefield for you A career in Hell with you I have made it through the things, others would surely die just watching And the oath I take on this day is to know that you will be repaid One day the the sun will die And the night will crawl Until then, until I see your world implode I wish you death and suffering Misery to spare, time to release your pain Face the last enemy, I am the last thing you will know The last thing you will see, I see your death surrounding me I know you, yes I do, I know you When no words are spoken and pleas are ignored Your tears go unnoticed, will you say enough? When prayers are unanswered and your calls are unheard The pain cuts right through you, have you seen enough? It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies A black cloud of indecision, compromised your life When judgement has failed you, when your own heart’s impaled you Your wandering mind has destroyed you, will you ever know when ah? When you give everything and the feeling is gone All the giving is fake, did you fake enough? When you take everything and you stay too long When there’s nothing left, did you take enough? It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies A black cloud of indecision, compromised your life When judgement has failed you, when your own heart’s impaled you Your wandering mind has destroyed you, will you ever know when?
