2080 - Our world is an empty domain
Emotions have died
Men bleeding oil are the heroes for children today

Drinking the blood of the weak dictators bring pain
But they show us a smile
Feelings and love are kept hidden in a Madhouse cave

It's a mad revolution
And the spirits will die
Oh escape the confusion
Take my hand

Now take my hand
Take me now
Take my hand

We won't be so free
Until we rise again

Eden is mad so enjoy it and fly to the sun
Don't you return
Your breath and your heartbeat are gifts
You've been given for life - oh yeah

Oh our deepest emotions
Are a sign of our life and our love
No robot can stop us
Take my hand

Now take my hand
Take me now
Take my hand
We won't be so free
Until we rise again

...yeah...

Oh yeah...
Watching a face and a smile and a light
When you`re walking alone in the street
I know your look always gives you the might
Many miles from your ass to your feet

And I dream- what I`ve seen
Is what I want it to be - selfmade reality

How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left to go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died

Look like a queen but you talk like a pawn
And I know you`re a fool in disguise
Godfather tell me how to carry on
Blinded by fantasies of lies

And I dream- what I`ve seen
Is what I want it to be - selfmade reality

How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left to go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died

I see your smile, a golden masquerade
And I know my dream will be my fate
Time has stolen my fantasy
Cause it has become a pale reality

Into a place of darkness, he was born to live alone
He got one big desire, one day he'd get the crown
Hey devil, come on help me now
Be the one to pull my string
Let me be your slave to serve you
To let me be the king

Just give me a sign
Take on my mind and let me stay blind
A victim of life too weak to be kind

Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown, here is my fate

Wherever I may roam there will be hate and pain
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, respect is what I gain
I look up to Mr. Crowley, evil powers: now unite
I will be your darkest nightmare
My life's a fatal fight

Just give me a sign
Take on my mind and let me stay blind
A victim of life too weak to be kind

Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown, here is my fate

Listen up my friend: you just cry for a hand
But you only pretend that you're bad - now

Well, take on my mind

Out of control
My life is a chamber of tears, fear and hate
Out of control
Help me to gain the crown

The prayers have been spoken
May the gods be on my side
May they join my way to bring me victory
Seven at one stroke
My triumph and my pride
They will be history

But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

What's hell without a paradise
What's the night without a day
We would think it's bright
What's a fall if we can't rise
What's a hero at a play
Without a fool to fight

But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

But behind my enemy's eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

yeah...
Giants of stone build up my desire
No one could tell us the secret of fire
The hunger for wisdom deep in your heart
You can`t accept that you`re liveing apart

Water runs down through the river
Lord you are the only to deliver
Night: stay night

In the night`s nothing is white
Now a knowledge not a light
Lord, will you tell me why someday

Fairytale - life is one big fairytale
A book of seven seals
Someone tell me why and how

I`m always told to kneel down and pray
What shall I do to stay on my way
Questions borrow through my brain
Pound and disturb and drive me insane

Lost in visions of knowledge I`ll never owe
Night to night

(Choir of the damned smurfs of death)

In the night`s nothing is white
Now a knowledge not a light
Lord, will you tell me why someday

Tell me what is time - yeah...

Fair sex paralyzer. Lipstick in a face
spirit analyzer, not one human trace
no need to cry
role the fuckin' dice, I'm a loser in a game
gonna hurt my feelings, your only real I am
feels like I die

You can play nice you get satisfied when you win
I see a smile of truth but I can`t stare within
riot in your soul

No more foolin`
you will save all your love
no more foolin`
you will save all your love

Say goodbye - say goodbye
you never know that I was strong enough to stand
All alone on my own I don`t need your hand

Got your weapons loaded, your target in your sight
why don`t you only tell me, that i shall fuckin' die

Looking so attractive, wanna get me active
but you never realized that i have got the tactics
I`m much too cool, much too large to be fooled
by your lies

You can play nice you get satisfied when you win
I see a smile of truth but I can`t stare within
riot in your soul

No more foolin`
you will save all your love
no more foolin`
you will save all your love

Say goodbye - say goodbye
you never knw that I was strong enough to stand
All alone on my own I don`t need your hand

No more foolin`
you will save all your love
no more foolin`
you will save all your love

Say goodbye - say goodbye

Give us this day all that you showed me
The faith and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes

When they say that in our time
All that's good will fall from grace
Even saints would turn their face
In our time
And they told us that in our days
Different words said in different ways
Have other meanings from he who says
In our time

Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes

And they say that in our time
We would reap from their legacy
We would learn from what they had seen
In our time
And they told us that in our days
We would know what was high on high
We would follow and not defy
In our time

Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes

Faithless in faith
We must behold the things we see

Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the storyies you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes

Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes

Give us this day all that you showed me
The power and the glory, till my kingdom comes
Give me all the stories you told me
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
