Laying alone And in my heart the fright Counting the hours Before the morning light But it's in vain The only friend I got is pain My soul is hidden In the Shadows of my name One minute over I feel much older now Rescue me faster Before the light of dawn And blow away, Blow out the ghost that made me stay Blow out the dust that's hidden me For all these years And at night when the whispers are louder And the silence is all but a still Inner sirens are topping my dawning I wish I were dreaming this awaken night My eyes wide open I'm on the ship of fools I'll share the colors Of my devoted blues 'Cause through the night I'm an eternal black and white Watching the silent night time rainbow Passing by And at night when the whispers are louder And the silence is all but a still Inner sirens are topping my dawning I wish I were dreaming this awaken night Dusk and denial blend in a lullaby Taste the regrets lurking behind a sigh So dim's the light So cold is the morning bound to thrive When to the stillness drowning me I resign Throughout the night 'Cause through the night I'm an eternal black and white Watching the silent night time rainbow Passing by And at night when the whispers are louder And the silence is all but a still Inner sirens are topping my dawning I wish I were dreaming this awaken night And at night when the whispers are louder And the silence is all but a still Inner sirens are topping my dawning I wish I were dreaming this awaken night

All the tickets have been sold The special guest is three years old "A sex abuser", that's what I was told A young man singing' his new song Some virgin preachers say "it's wrong!" They say "it makes the evil get too strong!" How long will it last I don't have to take it anymore Take me away from this foolish complaining And don't make me hear these whole stories again So many real big problems remain While you play with law wasting your right in vain Truth is always in disguise When social rules are not so wise And we keep saying we're not what we are Forbidden thoughts, forbidden sins This moral lie in which we're living Another trial, another vulture wins How long will it last I don't have to take it anymore Take me away from this foolish complaining And don't make me hear these whole stories again So many real big problems remain While you play with law wasting your right in vain Take me away from this foolish complaining And don't make me hear these whole stories again So many real big problems remain While you play with law wasting your right in vain

Feel the weight of all the years gone They're few but we're feeling so old And everything that we have done Was carrying someone else's stones In silence we dream of what our lives could be If we could have seen no one pulling the strings And deep in our hearts we don't care what you think But we still live for things we don't believe If I could begin my life again I know some things would never change But the time I spent to live in vain This time I'd use it all in different ways And all the days I spent trying to be a perfect man I'd use it to be happier than I am And all the days I spent trying to be a perfect man I'd use it to be happier than I am Feel the weight of all the years gone They're few but we're feelings old And everything that we have done Was carrying someone else's stones And deep in our hearts we don't care what you think But we still live for things we don't believe If I could begin my life again I know some things would never change But the time I spent to live in vain This time I'd use it all in different ways And all the days I spent trying to be a perfect man I'd use it to be happier than I am And all the days I spent trying to be a perfect man I'd use it to be happier than I am

Something inside is wrong And something is taking too long All these years made us so strong Can't give up, so much has been done There is still a strange sensation There is still so much temptation There is a fire inside that cheats the pain And tells to believe it was not in vain Cause we have gone too far But we're feeling like in the start There's a hole inside our hearts It's been a long time waiting A long time of fighting We're gone, too far to give up A long time trying A long time of dreaming We're gone, too far to give up There is still a strange sensation There is still so much temptation There is a fire inside that cheats the pain And tells to believe it was not in vain Cause we have gone too far But we're feeling like in the start There's a hole inside our hearts It's been a long time waiting A long time of fighting We're gone, too far to give up A long time trying A long time of dreaming We're gone, too far to give up

You try to see the morning sun but now it's gone And a pain inside still makes you feel so cold Tears in your eyes show you that you are not so strong And loneliness shows feelings you don't know All your dreams are left behind Your fears, your sadness made them die How can you live your life if you can't see no reason for it? Will you live forever under lies? Will you be killed by the time or will you try to do it right And find a real meaning to your life? But you still dare to say that you're felling your life Your life is just a stupid waste of time You run, you hide, you die but you don't even try You have already buried yourself alive All your dreams are left behind Your fears, your sadness made them die How can you live your life if you can't see no reason for it? Will you live forever under lies? Will you be killed by the time or will you try to do it right And find a real meaning to your life? Your silence still cuts you And something inside still hurts You're feeling remorse For things you've never done before All your dreams are left behind Your fears, your sadness made them die How can you live your life if you can't see no reason for it? Will you live forever under lies? Will you be killed by the time or will you try to do it right And find a real meaning to your life?

I was just a boy like everyone And then I wrote another stupid song About sex, drugs and rock'n roll, About the pain and disgrace of this world So one day I died by overdose, Stealing tears from everyone I became the number one on the radios Now anybody can sing all my songs One more dead hero was born Knowing the fame after bring gone Known by the radios, known by T.V. Ready to be just another great dead... Great dead singer Hey! can you hear me? it's not a simple dream This is a sad reality where T.V. tells the people how to live You can see it everywhere When I was there no one did really care Now that I'm gone they all still cry Today I am another thing you buy I was just a boy like everyone And then I wrote another stupid song I became the number one on the radios Now anybody can sing all my songs One more dead hero was born Knowing the fame after bring gone Known by the radios, known by T.V. Ready to be just another great dead... Great dead singer

Before the sun rises up and while the shadows turn to light Before they realize another day has passed them by And in the end of it there's just another night Without a single change, that's how they live their lives And trough all the sad times they keep working hard Cause they all still have hearts full of pride Even in misery and sorrow They still can find will to smile They don't give up, they stand so strong But happiness is so far Far, it's so far They're still trying to escape from the dark Far, it's so far But there is so much hope in their hearts Far it's so far I know they'll never stop fighting hard Far, it's so far This is all just a matter of time Even in misery and sorrow They still can find will to smile They don't give up, they stand so strong But happiness is so far Even in misery and sorrow They still can find will to smile They don't give up, they stand so strong But happiness is so far

Bombs and bloodshed look like gold to me For me it's money when it's what you read You read the news not knowing what it means It means I'm getting rich with the world's tragedy If an angry crowd starts to fight I don't care if this is right This is good if it's something I'll write on my distortion of life Not the truth, not a lie "Earthquakes", "murder" it's music to my ears Years of wars become years of news you'll read Read, read, read! I'm sure you will believe While I'm getting rich with the world's tragedy If an angry crowd starts to fight I don't care if this is right This is good if it's something I'll write on my distortion of life And I'll write If somebody's idol just died, if somebody starts to cry I just care if it makes people buy my distortion of life Not the truth, not a lie It's not the truth and it's not a lie It's the easiest way to get all of you Bloody, dirty, you say it's cruel But you're having fun with what I do If an angry crowd starts to fight I don't care if this is right This is good if it's something I'll write on my distortion of life And I'll write If somebody's idol just died, if somebody starts to cry I just care if it makes people buy my distortion of life Not the truth, not a lie

Dies Irae, Dies Ila Best regards Crown of broken shards Digging sores in my mind Cruel and so kind Come and face our demanded fate Our delight and sorrow Truly borrowed Can you see the morning, See the warning, See the hope? Can you see now What was foretold? Run! run for the day - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Run for the light - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Millennium Ash and haze Come and guide my way Now the road is leading Deep within me Time has come And the doom has sprung Come and claim our freedom Armageddon Can you see the morning, See the warning, See the hope? Can you see now What was foretold? Run! run for the day - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Run for the light - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Millennium Can you see the morning, See the warning, See the hope? Can you see now What was foretold? Run! run for the day - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Run for the light - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Millennium Run! run for the day - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Run for the light - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Millennium Run! run for the day - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Run for the light - Dies Irae, Dies Ila Millennium

How can you tell me what's right, Making lots of mistakes? Trying to hide from the truth you say I'm insane You're feeling so tall Finally you have someone to blame You say it's O.K. but there is no change So you send us to this madhouse But the world is still the same You say everyone is safe now This way things will never change Sometimes I laugh at what you've done There's freedom on these chains Insane, it's insane You build up destruction, pain and hate And keep saying I am... Insane, I'm insane Leave me here to live in peace Inside here I feel free Cause the madness is outside And through the sleepless nights remember all you've done Emptiness will show you what this madman tried to say So you send us to this madhouse But the world is still the same You say everyone is safe now This way things will never change Sometimes I laugh at what you've done There's freedom on these chains Insane, it's insane You build up destruction, pain and hate And keep saying I am... Insane, I'm insane Leave me here to live in peace Inside here I feel free Cause the madness is outside Madness is out Madness is out Madness is outside

Turn on the bloody screen, the show is going on Don't need to be afraid, it's always far from home If you don't like it you can choose another one That shows another truth, the one you like know Turn it on, turn it off, you're the king Forget the real life, it's just insane and boring You'll feel like if your problems were so far You live day by day without seeing your life passing by Take your feet off the ground Don't try to understand I'm sure you feel so fine now But you are going down When will you realize? That this is not your life It's all fake It controls your mind and makes you blind You smile, you cry For some character's life You live, you die And behind a sea of lies you hide Wake up man you're just another puppet Completely under control You love, you hate, you laugh, you cry And you keep doing You keep doing everything you're told Wear it, buy it, eat it, breathe and watch it You keep watching all this empty show It fills your gaps, now it kills your mind And makes you live just like a stone When will you realize? That this is not your life It's all fake It controls your mind and makes you blind You smile, you cry For some character's life You live, you die And behind a sea of lies you hide See this poor man He's feeling so strong He can't see his empty hands He is so blind He's just another stupid guy Who's a living' in a T.V. life Close your blinded eyes Sleep, turn off your mind Feel all your problems die Freeze while the time goes by Can't you see? it's fantasy But your problems still remain true You feel good. it's your food It's the way out of your sad life It's not bad but you let it possess you You're living' in lies that you turn into real life You're still the same, without a change You are turning your back to real life When will you realize? That this is not your life It's all fake It controls your mind and makes you blind You smile, you cry For some character's life You live, you die And behind a sea of lies you hide
