Tales From the Soul (to Those Who Understand)
Can you make it through another day? Can you believe the load of shit I heard today? I still wonder how we keep on going this way What can you say? Another burning city occupied The mighty soldier laughs and babies cry How can we just go on with our lives? Today at the nine o'clock news Terrorism and child abuse Is shown like a weather report to me How proud we are of the cream of prime time Will I make it through another day? (Is) somebody ever gonna listen To what I have to say? Will they be keeping me from playing? What can I say? Another burning city occupied The mighty soldier laughs and babies cry How can we just go on with our lives? The great wheel of time turns We sharply condemn (But) their cities still burn Listen how pride sounds in empty words But if asked for deeds we can't be disturbed We sharply condemn but that's where it ends Our duty goes much further than that Is it really so hard for us to see how? Tell me who is really condemned now? I sharply condemn I don't know to what end There's more to be spoken than this sad song I won't stay out for long now So easy to tell you what is wrong You think I am the fool And who am I to blame you? I think I'll go out there And show you the way You don't need another smartass Somebody please help me find the way

Young men searching for the truth Are not afraid to try Are not afraid to die (They) ask themselves is this for love If so, will it be enough? Will it be enough? Your mind is tricked to make a leap of faith Into those deadly acts of hate No compassion anymore No passion anymore Young men tricked to make a leap of faith Mercy is something that can wait Let's fight this dirty war Let's fight this dirty war What are you hoping for? Will we ever smile again? Forgiving our enemies And treat them like friends Will we see again? A wise man shows the truths of life He was not afraid So sad he passed away If we fail to stop this madness Will it be enough? Will it be enough? Our minds are tricked to make a leap of faith Into those deadly acts of hate No compassion anymore No passion anymore Young men tricked to make a leap of faith Mercy is something that can wait We'll fight this dirty war We'll fight this dirty war What are we hoping for? Will we ever smile again? Embracing our enemies And proud to tell our friends Will we see again? Fulfilling the promise Abandoning this death wish Will we ever make them smile? Reach into in their hearts We will understand We will see again Join them in the foray Into this political frenzy Join them to the king's dismay They will not understand Will we ever smile again? Embracing our enemies And proud to tell our friends Will we see again? Fulfilling the promise Abandoning this death wish Will we ever make them smile? Reach into in their hearts We will understand We will see again

(It) started out so wonderful I heard those sounds so beautiful Heaven down here below I never felt this way before So free of mind The last time was too long ago So much to find An angel trying to touch my soul No arguing about wrong and right Your world that's not just black & white Right from your heart A power so strong Right where I belong The passion in your word and song But what went wrong? So many people left alone Feel my heart bleed Just knowing and to see you die Hear me cry (It) feels so bad to see you go Drifting quietly along the flow But hear me cry A part of us dies To go and lay beside your angels So new for me and still not strange (It) just seemed so right But then a darkness came And there was night A shattered dream a nightmare now The darkest night So many left alone Feel my heart bleed Just knowing and to see you die Hear me cry (It) feels so bad to see you go Drifting quietly along the flow But hear me cry A part of us dies I cry and cry and cry Feel my heart bleed Just knowing and to see you die Hear me cry Feel my heart bleed Just knowing and to see you die Please tell me why

Sun and steel Faith and the Wheel I won't kneel for Empires falling Prophesies calling The power tainted Strength for pain Spinning weaves of spirit and water Drawing the power I fill the void Play with witches as if they're children They're snapping like twigs their mortal souls Somebody please come tell me now I cannot sleep not knowing how My dreams a prison But I swear I vow I'll meet my fate that day No way Still I feel The Filth so real Still I won't kneel for Darkness calling My sanity falling But I won't fail them A world to gain Spinning weaves of earth and fire Drawing the power I fill the void Leash the gifted as if they're witches They're snapping like twigs their mortal souls Somebody please come tell me now I cannot sleep not knowing how My dreams a prison I swear I vow I will meet my fate that day Yes I will surely take that vow I'll meet my fate that day Spinning weaves of air and fire Drawing the power I fill the void Hide our kin and save our children They're snapping like twigs their mortal souls Somebody please come tell me now I cannot sleep not knowing how My dreams a prison I swear I vow I'll meet my fate that day Somebody please come tell me now (I cannot sleep not knowing how) I can not live (My dreams a prison) (I swear I vow) Cause I can not live Not live

We're seeking the truth (In) the world around us Emotionally burdened It's science that leads us Oh man, it's so hard So hard to see thus Too bad it's something Something that I must I warned you I told you But you won't listen to me I've shown you And bet you I bet that you'll never believe I hope you can change you And try to see it like me I blame you Can't explain you I wonder if we'll ever agree Aware of what's happening I'm slowly realizing Too eager and too proud Am I patronizing? Oh man, it's so hard To quit rationalizing Too bad it got so far But I must keep on trying I warned you I told you But you won't listen to me I've shown you And bet you I bet that you'll never believe I hope you Can change you And try to see it like me I blame you Can't explain you I wonder if we'll ever agree? Ever agree? I'm scared, I'm unable (My) logic don't seem to work Our minds are so tired And our vision so blurred I'm scared, I'm not able Are we supposed to save this world? My mind is on fire And my brain is overworked I can't help but speak true, can't you hear me? It leads me more and more astray I must set my heart open Let the urge fade away Aware of what's happening I'm slowly realizing Too eager and too proud Am I patronizing? Oh man, it's so hard To quit rationalizing Too bad it got so far But I must keep on trying I warned you I told you But you won't listen to me I've shown you And bet you I bet that you'll never believe I hope you Can change you And try to see it like me I blame you Can't explain you I wonder if we'll ever agree? Ever agree?

Hide - and hope that they won't find you And hope that they won't find you And hope that he will mind you While he hungers for more That night he lost his mind The night she lost her life Wake up and everything is fine Young girl born in sadness Father's drunk, away and careless Twisted mind, relentless attitude Leaves the window open Late at night the light's still on I know she's not alone Shine - a light so clear it fills the night Glow - fill your friends with joy and pride Breathe - and blow away their sorrows Cry - and let them help to ease your soul And let them help to ease your soul Heal your broken soul Broken soul That night I lost my mind The night she lost her life Wake up and everything is a lie Young girl born in darkness Father's drunk, away and careless Restless mind, relentless attitude Leaves the window open Late at night the light's still on I know you're not alone

Ride on the wind like a flake of snow with a Freedom that gives me no right or wrong Never will reach the horizon before me The voyage itself the ultimate goal Look at the clouds in the sky The rain and the storm (The rain and the storm) Pushes me forth to an unseen goal Leaves me battered and worn (Leaves me battered and worn) Open my mind to the storm ahead Waiting for thunder to strike me down Heavenly power of lightning and rain That cleans my soul Look at the clouds in the sky The rain and the storm (The rain and the storm) Pushes me around and around To an unseen goal (Leaves me battered and worn) Unbound like dust in the wind And the eternal stone ( The rain and the storm ) I've traveled so far and so long But this road's my home (Leaves me battered and worn) The Rider is roaming roaming free Pushes me Forth to an unseen goal Where will it be? The Rider is roaming And no place to stay Better be Push me around So far far away The Rider is roaming free Pushes me forth to an unseen goal, I don't care where it will be The Rider is roaming free Pushes me around and around I don't care where it will be

For years, no reasons to fear, No one failed these times A golden era Why? If only few die If only few cry For the bad times have gone? Lies, festering lies Still disguised Hidden beneath the surface Wail, hear them wail For now they fail To keep their empty promises Still nothing really wrong Still seems strong Will it be enough? People getting bored Want to see blood (They've) seen their faces too many times Food for lies Hear them cry Screaming for their downfall Wail, hear them wail For now they fail So easy to break your promises Lies, filthy lies, it gets them high They dare go all the way Wail, hear them wail For now they fail To keep their promises

Crusades Christians Wrought with good intentions Righteousness in every street Brave knights And dead pigs It's just a matter of viewing I'm praying for the dying Driven by this madness Too blind to see the unending sadness Is there any hope left? In this sad sad situation Daring to misuse my faith It's hard to find a cause for hate Wickedness or is it Just a case of bad religion? Cases of HIV In a world that's rich with cures The Pope won't bend his knee For the sake of their religion You have to close your wild pubs down And freedom can't be found Driven by this madness Too blind to see the unending sadness Is there any hope left? In this sad sad situation Daring to misuse my faith It's hard to find a cause for hate Wickedness or is it Just a case of bad religion? I'm searching the heavens And looking for gods Will I follow the right path? Be facing the odds? I search society I search myself Confused in this turmoil Must I end up in Hell? And who is wrong and who is right? I'm lost in this age's darkest night Maniacs, madness, fill me with tears I'm running but can I hide from My own fears? I wonder yes I wonder When I'm looking at the skies Is there a heaven for the living? Or just this hell and we can't hide? I'd rather fly away and catch the stars And my time is passing by And except for my own family Will it be lasting when I die? I'm searching the heavens And looking for gods Will I follow the right path? Be facing the odds? I search society I search myself Confused in this turmoil Must I end up in Hell? And who is wrong and who is right? I'm lost in this age's darkest night Maniacs, madness, fill me with tears I'm running but can I hide from My own fears?
