No Sleep Demon
Album - 2001 - Debaser id 59831

Every day I travel
To keep my mind quiet in its cage
Every night I'm dancing
With the images I generate

What moves my soul?
Where do I go?

Restless I keep searching
To understand the madman's heart

I'm wandering the streets of pain
Taking the confusion
Shed my skin, adore the rain
Merge in the illusion

There's no use denying
The truth beyond our anxious lies
Paradise is fiction
And love's a desperate compromise

We will burn
Feel the fascination
You will learn

I'm wandering the streets of pain
Taking the confusion
Shed my skin, adore the rain
Merge in the illusion

We're walking down the streets of pain
Sharing the confusion
Leave your home, forget your name
Merge in the illusion

You eat the time
Spit out the seeds
You're planting life

You speak the words
Control the beat
You're an agent of change

Send out the light
Raging from the sky
Refine my vice

Absorb my fears
Brand me with your signs
We are partners in crime

Exorcize - No choice but to believe
I turn to you and close my eyes
Exorcize - I will not suffer

Exorcize - Raise your voice not to deceive
I turn to you and close my eyes
Exorcize - Rage will do no better

You dull my mind
You leave me blind
Define my course

You're breaking news
You are on the scene
Our schedule is yours

You worked your way
'Round the firewalls
Reverse the time

Absorb my fears
Brand me with your tears
We are partners in crime

Exorcize - No choice but to believe
I turn to you and close my eyes
Exorcize - I will not suffer

Exorcize - Raise your voice not to deceive
I turn to you and close my eyes
Exorcize - Rage will do no better

Without choice but to believe

I pose in foam
Attracting no one
I'm on my own
I'm torn
Forming extinct species
Just like my own
Naked to the bone
I'm torn

As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief

As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief

I smile at wine and downers
A blade, the phone
I'll quit this all time low
I've sworn
My legs shape Vs and Ss
Amid the storm
From this sea of red
I'm born
Or torn ?
Or am I ?

As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief

As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief

If you love me you will find me

Another boring day is close to the end
We share the last glass of wine
Much too tired to move, head on my hands
Avoid to look into your eyes

Let's watch a movie, watch a comedy
Watch pornography
Fast food for our minds
The rich man's far too fat
I don't like his grin
But all the women try to mate with him

If we really share a functional design
An adapted mind
This might prevent our lives from parasites
Still, it's a big waste of time

All the answers
To the questions
This protein structure asks
Play 'hard-to-get' and this is
Why we want them so badly
I'd like to regress
To an infant psyche
'Feed me, feed me, feed me'

If we really share a functional design
An adapted mind
This might prevent our lives from parasites
Still, it's a big waste of time

Pounding heart you shake me
I have never been so close
To an earthquake
Take my word I'm trembling
For I know
What I have felt

Pounding heart believe me
Rain is sweeter than
The spring water fountain
Take my hand and lead me
To a place
For us to melt

Into one another

Think the inconceivable
Desire the untouchable

I've come to understand that bliss
Is quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll claim another life

I've come to understand that kiss
Was quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll halt the turn of time

Pounding heart awake me
I have never been so far
From the shore
Waves mount up around me
Still I don't want to go back

Loving heart believe me
Your sincerity will
Give me the strength to
Work my way through the sea
Memorize the words you said

Think the inconceivable
Desire the untouchable

I've come to understand that bliss
Is quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll claim another life

I've come to understand that kiss
Was quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll halt the turn of time

Turn around...
Don't be so stupid to believe
In what they say
Rest assured of that
They'll get you out of the way

Don't be so stupid to believe
In what you hear
Rest assured of that
They know no fear

How many sinners do you know like this?
Out of their minds

How many cowards do you know like this?
Out of their minds
No will to move

They'll get you
Out of the way

How many sinners do you know like this?

They'll get you
Out of the way
Rest assured of that
They'll get you out of the way

Instrumental

I?m staring at the wall
Thoughts dried up like desert sand
I fall

Time means nothing anymore
The clocks have simply stopped
I drop

Curious child, shallow mind
When will we meet again?
And will we still be friends?

Check the footprints in the sand
It all got out of hand

Now you say it's not yourself
You just turned to someone else
You are laughing
And you're kissing me goodbye

Tousled playmates on the shelf
You keep shouting 'Rome's on fire'
Indifferent
But now and then
You panic for a while
