Devil's Dozen
On the move, on the run – as it used to be Is it fear, is it faith – that is leading me Straight ahead, miles away – from the misery of wasted years? Turning down – switching off all my memories Cutting loose – leaving out friends and enemies Every word, every face – trying to forget while shifting gears Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Anything you say seems to be a lie? Can you tell me what made you change? So long! Used to be so right now it feels so wrong As I’m looking back in anger Over this no man’s land, trying hard to understand... Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Everything you’ve said seems to be a lie? Never thought I’d leave the place where I belong Used to feel so right but now it feels so wrong Was it you, was it me? – I don’t really care By the end of the day – is it so unfair To retreat and forget – all the promises you made? I know “If you do, if you don’t” – as I heard them say “You’ll be damned” – only I did it anyway Packing up, getting out – really sorry but I had to go! Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Anything you say seems to be a lie? Can you tell me what made you change? So long! Used to be so right now it feels so wrong Now it feels so wrong! Over this no man’s land, trying hard to understand... Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Everything you’ve said seems to be a lie? Never thought I’d leave the place where I belong Used to feel so right but now it feels so wrong So wrong... So... So wrong... You can break my heart, you can break my soul You can even say that it’s all my fault Go ahead, I see you’re on a roll – but it felt so right Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Anything you say seems to be a lie? Can you tell me what made you change? So long! Used to be so right now it feels so wrong (Can you tell me how, can you tell me why) Everything you’ve said seems to be a lie? Never thought I’d leave the place where I belong Used to feel so right but now it feels so wrong Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Anything you say seems to be a lie? Can you tell me what made you change? So long! Used to be so right now it feels so wrong! As I’m looking back in anger Over this no man’s land, trying hard to understand, understand! Can you tell me how, can you tell me why Everything you’ve said seems to be a lie? Never thought I’d leave the place where I belong Used to feel so right but now it feels so wrong So wrong!

May you never walk alone, forgotten down this road – so lonely The one and only, far away You’re never on your own, I’m crying out “so long” forever And “may you never... walk alone!” I have been stuck behind this wobbly desk for hours now I don’t know how and where to start – so pointless, so grotesque: A dire plight but what to write about you but “I miss you so”? My mind is empty... here I go May you never walk alone, forgotten down this road – so lonely The one and only, far away You’re never on your own, I’m crying out “so long” forever And “may you never walk alone!” Walk alone! As twilight turned to dawn an empty page was all I had, I’m going mad What to remember – neither saint nor sage... or just like me – so can’t you see Now as your image fades away the only thing that’s left to say... (left to say) May you never walk alone, forgotten down this road – so lonely The one and only, far away You’re never on your own, who cares about what they’re saying? Just hear me praying, listen May you never be afraid It doesn’t matter where you’re going without knowing either way You’ll never be betrayed I’m crying out “so long” forever And may you never walk alone... Walk alone I have been stuck behind this wobbly desk for hours now I don’t know how And where to start – so pointless, so grotesque: A dire plight but what to write? It’s like every word’s been said before so I can’t do it anymore... (anymore) Anymore! (anymore) May you never walk alone, forgotten down this road – so lonely The one and only, far away You’re never on your own, no, who cares about what they’re saying? Just hear me praying, listen May you never be afraid It doesn’t matter where you’re going without knowing either way You’ll never be betrayed I’m crying out “so long” forever And may you never walk alone! (May... walk alone) May you never walk alone... (May... on your own) May you never walk alone...

Tie me down; never let me go 'til The end of my days Cut me loose – and before you Know I'll be lost in a maze Lift me up to a higher ground Elevate me and don't Let me down – 'cuz I'd stick Around right here on my own, My heart's turning Slowly to stone Shake me up, let me feel alive While I'm sure that you will Wear me out – guess I would Survive, sign me up for that thrill One step forward – it's not so Much yet I hope you won't take Two steps back Cuz I'd lose my touch… It keeps me awake So give me a break My heart's on a platter So laugh up your sleeve… It's easy, I know, but you might Just try to give in, you could try to believe My heart's on a platter tonight

Yesterday is over: dead and gone Cold and grey – so what’re you dwelling on? Dwelling on (A fortune made and lost? Just counting up the cost?) You better keep your fingers crossed (Storm is coming today, well get running) Get lost (Keep on steering away, disappearing) Get lost! Time has come for us to count the score: Tell me what have you been fighting for? Fighting for (A little bit of fame? Seems like a modest claim) No one will ever know your name, your name Storm is coming today, well get running Off you go ball and chain, and chain Keep on steering away, disappearing Like a tear in the rain, the rain, the rain (Life’s been wasted so far) can you face it? Does it drive you insane? Insane Scary feeling: (you are) disappearing Like a tear in the rain, the rain, the rain (A little bit of fame?) (A little bit of fame?) (Seems like a modest claim) (Seems like a modest claim) (No one will ever know) (No one will ever know) your name, your name!

Another year has passed Another wrinkled page’s been turned God knows it’s not the last I’ve learned, I’ve learned I’ve learned to hold on tight And how to make it on my own But in the middle of the night I’d moan!... I’ll wait, wait until the day My bleeding heart stops until I pray “Is anybody up there? So guide me with thy grace” I’m getting ready... just to see your face, your face How come: you slipped away And yet it feels you’re everywhere I miss you every single day, I swear (oh) I swear! I’ll wait (wait), wait until the day (until the day) My bleeding heart stops until I pray “Is anybody up there? So guide me with thy grace” I’m getting ready just to see your face I’ll live (live), live until the sign (until the sign) Shows at my door, all the stars aligned Then I’ll know what’s coming... a little price to pay So I’ll be waiting right until the day (the day) Oh right until that day Another year has passed Another wrinkled page’s been turned (ah...) How do I know it’s not the last? I’ve learned (oh) by now I’ll wait (wait), wait until the day (until the day) My bleeding heart stops but now I pray “Is anybody up there? So guide me with thy grace” I’m getting ready just to see your face I’ll live (live), live until the sign (until the sign) Shows at my door, all the stars aligned Then I’ll know what’s coming... a little price to pay So I’ll be waiting right until the day...

I’ve been around way too long to care or wonder Why am I bound to witness all this mess? I guess Wherever you go – it’s the same, so I’m sure it’s a name of the game If you’re quick on a trigger (quick on a trigger), richer and bigger (richer and bigger) You’d stay a bit longer, get a bit stronger, hope for the best, it’s alright You can save every dime, hide or bury it all But the higher you climb... even harder you fall Carry on, don’t be shy – keep on stuffing these bags In a blink of an eye... you’ll go from riches to rags! (Don’t forget! Then again... go ahead) Carry on, don’t be shy – keep on packing these bags In a blink of an eye... you’ll go from riches to rags I’ve been around way too long to care or wonder Who’s going down, who’s to blame or why... oh my Do as you pleased but watch out Oh here’s what I’m talking about Hurry, pick up your number (pick up your number) Oh who’s going under? (Who’s going under?) Look at these faces, glittering places... There is no easy way out You can save every dime, hide or bury it all But the higher you climb... even harder you fall Carry on, don’t be shy – keep on stuffing these bags In a blink of an eye... you’ll go from riches to rags! (Don’t forget! Then again... go ahead) Carry on, don’t be shy – keep on packing these bags In a blink of an eye... you’ll go from riches to rags...

Sometimes I feel so lost, so off the track And yes, I know – there is no going back Trying to remember that point of no return When all those bridges burned... Somewhere in time I am a little kid No second thoughts, no matter what you did There’s always someone to catch you if you’d fall I know you’re nearby, can you hear my call? My call! If I could hit rewind, re-watch, relive, refine... Still waiting for a sign, another chance to put the record straight ‘Cause I’m no longer scared to tell how much I cared These words I should have shared... I know, I know, I know it’s way too late (If I could hit rewind, re-watch, relive, refine...) Still waiting for a sign, another chance to put the record straight (‘Cause I’m no longer scared to tell how much I cared) These words I should have shared... I know, I know, I know it’s way too late... (Years passing by) yet this kind of wound never heal (Words can’t describe) the pain or the way that I feel I know I’ve never been a perfect son Forgive me for my “living on the run” It’s the same old story, but now we’re worlds apart I am so sorry if I broke your heart! Yeah, yeah! If I could hit rewind, re-watch, relive, refine... Still waiting for a sign, another chance to put the record straight ‘Cause I’m no longer scared to tell how much I cared These words I should have shared... I know, I know, I know it’s way too late (If I could hit rewind, re-watch, relive, refine...) Still waiting for a sign, another chance to put the record straight (‘Cause I’m no longer scared to tell how much I cared) These words I should have shared... I know, I know, I know, I know, I know it’s way, it’s way too late... It’s way too late... Oh it’s way too late...
