Paralysis
Album • 1994
The evidence surrounds our every move Destroyed our world, what have we proved We are so blind that we can’t see Killing our planet, yes, you and me Why have we let it come to this? We must change and start working for the future Can we still survive? Have we reached the end? Look at what we’ve done Only time will tell Can we stop the clock? Is our planet lost? We have gone too far Only time will tell Aggression, destruction, all around us Inhumane suffering, a continuing story How long must this go on? How long before this shall end? Drastic progression...shift of balances Altered states...mindless destruction [Chorus:] We are living in our filth And we make it worse every day We can’t go on like this We must change our ways of living You have been tortured since time began Have always taken it very well Back then there was chance for recovery Now it’s too late that’s a long time ago Can we still survive? Have we reached the end? Look at what we’ve done Only time will tell Can we stop the clock? Is our planet lost? We have gone too far Only time will tell [Chorus 2x] A leakage of a secret government report to the press today, revealed horrific details of a cover-up at several of our major nuclear powerplants throughout our country. The report showed that unacceptable levels of highly radio-active substances had been freely escaping into the atmosphere, over a period of six months. It was discovered that reports of these occurrences were somehow mysteriously lost in the computer network within the powerplants’ system. Supervisors from the plant have been reprimanded and will be appearing before a tribunal later this week. However the question still remains, as to how safe we really are by placing so much trust in the hands of the so-called nuclear power experts.

A chosen few true to their cause Special group set up for research Testing, planning accidental discoveries Top secret files, no access, no limits Fundamental basic laws of science Found the key...exploring new fields Facts or fiction...problems to solve A scientific cause...laboratory madness Is this the answer to it all...? Experimental factor... Experimental factor genocide Scientific madness beyond control Experimental factor genocide For the knowledge sold their souls [Chorus:] Experimental factor...genocide Experimental factor...genocide A chosen few true to their cause Special group set up for research Testing, planning accidental discoveries Top secret files, no access, no limits Fundamental basic laws of science Explored the new fields Discovered new limits Did you solve the problems? Yes but new questions arise Was the knowledge worth the price? That we all must pay Is this the answer to it all? Is this the answer to it all? [Chorus]
I do not remember anything Is this a dream or reality? Blind fate has brought me to this place An outcast of the human race Inside the screams no one can hear Torment, frustration, pain and fear Doctors’ reports say I am alive Medical science prolongs my survive [Chorus:] Man or machine tell me who I am Why must they keep me alive? Man or machine what’s the reason why Give me peace of mind, please, release me, let me die Man or machine... Am I man or machine? Man or machine... Am I man or machine? Hideous I’ve become a freak, a novelty Ludicrous cries invested in me Motionless inside my lean, you can’t see Helplessness, end my life, release me Blind, deaf, dumb, can’t communicate Motionless, never to participate Held in suspended animation No care, no help, hopeless situation Mind’s thoughts live, still exist Just a statistic on a list Cables tubes pump in the life No analysis for the pain I feel inside [Chorus 2x] Man or machine... Am I man or machine? Man or machine... Am I man or machine? Trapped In this strange place... No one can help me... Can’t find my way home... From darkness to light... Lost in the darkness... Lost In the darkness... Can’t find my way home...

I lost a friend today of many ages old A great comfort to us all Throughout our youthful years Gave us guidance, taught us truth Gave us treasures from so deep Look at the ‘way’ we have repaid her And she cries And she cries - she cries to me Tears of sadness - tears of pain And she cries - she cries to me Tears they fall so desperately I see it with my eyes Colors changing day by day It’s not fiction slipping Slowly fades away [Chorus:] Shades of grey Fade to black Darkness surrounds me Shades of grey Fade to black Darkness engulfs me I lost a friend today of many ages old A great comfort to us all Throughout our youthful years We’ve shown no guidance We’ve shown no truth Lost all treasures from so deep Look at the ‘way’ we have repaid her [Chorus] And she cries And she cries - she cries to me Tears of sadness - tears of pain And she cries - she cries to me Tears they fall so desperately Shades of grey... Shades of grey...

She comes from a home of instability Shrouded by abuse and misery Plays a game, a masquerade Always running, always so... afraid Admits to nothing Committed no crimes To be punished for the rest of her life So afraid to face herself So afraid to face the truth Point... of no return [4x] Run from the past Run from the present Run from the future Escape the truth [Chorus:] A past buried deep within Locked away inside her mind Look at this false thing you’ve become Can you be true? Reveal yourself Always running but you don’t know from who Insecure without feelings, without love Misleading people into your web of deceit Playing the innocent role [Chorus] Will you ever learn from mistakes you’ve made? Open up inside, let your feelings go Stop the lies and deceitfulness End the masquerade, close the show Point... of no return [4x] Run from the past Run from the present Run from the future Escape the truth Always running but you don’t know from who Insecure without feelings, without love Misleading people into your web of deceit Playing the innocent role [Chorus 2x]

Far beyond our wisdom beyond distant horizons Lie worlds forgotten, cast away in time Pasts filled with lords, kings and rulers Stories of ancient legends untold What a sight that must have been to experience How I wish I could have been there Watching history evolve before my very own eyes How I wish I could have the power Changing all the wrong things to the right To the right Take a chance step into the time machine Travel through ages, see things you won’t believe Mysteries of past and present shall reveal Enter a brand new age, a brand new day Conquer new dimensions, seek out the truth Awakening spirits from centuries passed on Analyze past history where did we, where did we go wrong? Millions of years gone by, times to change Time to change our song Time to change our song Now I have arrived Travelled backwards in time Stand upon these ancient shores Have the power, the control Inside my mind what are my thoughts To change for better or for worse Inside my mind what are my thoughts Has this all gone to my head? [Chorus:] How I have wished all of this time Now I am here, the judgment is mine How I have hoped all of this time Now I am here, the power is mine The power is mine, I have control The power is mine, the power is mine! Far beyond our wisdom beyond distant horizons Lie worlds forgotten, cast away in time Pasts filled with lords, kings and rulers What a sight that must have been to experience How I have wished all of this time Now I am here, the judgment is mine How I have hoped for wrong or for right Now I am here, the choice is mine For wrong or for right I have the choice The power is mine!

Without... without a shadow of a doubt Feelings still remain Without a shadow of a doubt Silence surrounds my every move Lonely hours return to haunt me Will I ever cast away this presence That embraces, constricts my body The endless void within my soul Grows deeper day by day Visions come unto me Bearing witness of any faults The mind is strong But the flesh is weak This has been proved time after time Will I ever learn from my mistakes? Seasons shall come, seasons shall go Passing by without a whisper, without goodbye And time will tell time beholds the answer To all the questions that we ask Without... without a shadow of a doubt Feelings still remain Without a shadow of a doubt Can dreams and wishes become reality? Memories twist and turn within my mind The voice of conscience bears down on me (yeah!) Regrets of chances, decisions made Blind in emotion, bringer of sorrow Broke a trust and splintered a heart Brought so much pain to someone so precious Wish I could change all what’s happened But forgiveness is such a difficult word (oh...!) Only time can heal the wounds So forget the past, leave it behind Look to the future, there lies hope Seasons shall come, seasons shall go Passing by without a whisper, without goodbyes And time will tell time, beholds the answer To all the questions that we ask Ask... Your... Self... Without... without a shadow of a doubt... regrets Without... without a shadow of a doubt Feelings still remain Without a shadow of a doubt Feelings still remain... Feelings still remain... Doubt!

Wheels on the war-machine Shall always keep on turning Warmongers making money Will always keep on earning As one battle comes to an end Another one’s just begun The apocalypse it still remains Goes on and on and on When the lighting finally ceases hey! Tell me who has really won Man’s created this monster Causing mass destruction worldwide Taking millions of innocent lives each year No safe place for them to hide Lust for war has been in our blood Since evolution this can he found Our race evolves, learns, builds, creates Conflicts smash it to the ground Power greed that’s on our minds We’ve closed our eyes, we are so blind [Chorus:] When will we learn? See all the wrong things that we do When will we learn? Then it’s too late for me and for you That’s when we’ll learn Reaching our fatal final truth Fatal final truth When will we learn? See all the wrong things that we do When will we learn? Then it’s too late for me and for you Look back in time across the years Nothing gained from the fighting and the tears What’s been achieved, what does war bring Refugees, pain, terror, suffering When will we learn?... Never! [Chorus] Have we really listened to the moral of this song? Continuing along these lines man won’t exist for long Technology was for the future, supposed to be our friend The only thing progress has brought is closer to the end We will never ever learn, we’ll self-destruct Our fuse it burns [Chorus]

Who are we? Why are we here? Is this fate or insanity? Sometimes I lie awake at night And think this all is a game I am not ready for this world Not ready to face humanity We play our parts as the almighty watches Our every move from birth till death So carefully planned but among us so few Who use this knowledge to rebel I thought it was all for one not one for all Cries from the silent who cannot speak Tears shall be shed for now and forevermore Are these our fears, our enemies within? Illusions constantly surround searching for ourselves Unable, sometimes impossible to find But the search goes on and on and on Seems so close but so far apart... so far apart... unreality I ant not ready for this world Not ready to face humanity What have I done? What have I seen? What have I learnt? What’s to become? I thought it was all for one not one for all Cries from the silent who cannot speak Are these our fears, our enemies within?

"Escape From Yesterday" (Dedicated to two special friends) Emptiness, the only thing I feel inside Trying to recall if anything was real Reflecting on past memories of times lost long ago Prepare myself to greet the coldness I shall embrace Help me escape from yesterday... yesterday Sifting through the damage, my life shattered all around No confidence or feelings, things just won’t work out How can I bare inside the hurt I know is true Explain to me, help me understand the reason why you’ve gone Left me alone, by myself... yesterday Frightening so quiet, questions still surround Waiting by that special place, gazing from my eyes Searching for your presence but it cannot be found I cried upon that night a when they called out your name Took you away, I’m so alone... Escape from yesterday I’m so alone Escape from yesterday Took you away Escape from yesterday I’m so alone... I’m so alone I wish I could leave yesterday "Sunitpar" This song’s dedicated to a friend of ours Who wears women’s clothes and goes to gay bars Oh sorry! Right person, wrong song... Let’s start again He’s small compact and not so pretty Not a good dresser, it’s such a pity But he’s got a heart, a heart of goad Still he’s our roady when he’s a hundred years old By the way that’s next week He’s much older than he looks you know He drives our bus to all our shows Carries our gear wherever we go Sometimes we forget to show appreciation Our faithful roady, what dedication! He’s so dedicated in everything he does He even irons his Y fronts, ask his mum! He’s a builder, a welder, a driver, a seller Has strange little habits, but is a bloody nice fellow Not just our roady, but he’s our friend In spite of his snoring that drives us round the bend Give us a T! (T!) Give us an I! (I!) Give us an N! (N!) Give us a U! (U!) Give us an S! (S!) What does it spell backwards? SUNIT! Tinus, we thank you It’s a funky sunit rap (Until the end)
