Silence
Album - 21 gennaio 2001 - Debaser id 18697

We only have one candle
To burn down to the handle
No matter what they say
If you live like a man, You live in tales you tell

To rage and run like a fool
You need no brain, your best tool
Stay put and as they say
Live like a man, the only way you can

You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
You cannot see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed

You type your name on one row
To get dosed-up tomorrow
You live in a CC dream, with your machine
It's your goal supreme

You think you have it all now
The wisdom, power, know-how
Can't even think you're wrong
This is the way the brain of a male is made

You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
You cannot see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed

If you live, you will die
You won't live forever stuck in time
Ebb and flow, push and tow
You must keep it real to find her

You let the phone line bring it home to you
The life, the lies, the dreams
Can't even see the real thing underneath
- Naked truth revealed

If you live, you will die
You won't live forever stuck in time
Ebb and flow, push and tow
You must keep it real to find her

If you live, you will die
You won't live forever stuck in time
Ebb and flow, push and tow
You must keep it real to find her

I look out the window, I see the sun in the sky, for now
It is not for me
Stories of old times, Black Book of Lies with no reason nor rhymes
No secrets, no disguise

Colour of the jealousy that hangs over thee
Why don't you believe, you still do not know me

Books of true tales,
Mirrors of tragedy
Remorseful and pale
As always
These news travels fast

Walking cross snowfields,
how can I trust in this path I leave
Fading behind me
Pleading not guilty
It is in the nature of humankind
Installed in a manchild

Life can do it in many ways, toss dirt on your face
But I am your man, and for you I do all I can

Books of true tales,
Mirrors of tragedy
Remorseful and pale
As always
These news travels fast

Standing on the station, watching your train slowly disappear
(In the misty morning)
I'm only shell of a man, I thought you knew who I am

But go ahead and blame the fool
You have beliefs that aren't true
I have not lived the life you read from

Books of true tales,
Mirrors of tragedy
Remorseful and pale
As always
These news travels fast

Why do you keep me in the agony?
The Book of true tales
How can you hate and keep me in this agony?
The Mirror of tragedy
I haven't lied, I haven't cheated!
The Book of true tales
What do you think? What do you see
When you look in
The Mirror of tragedy

And I'm still your man, and for you I do all I can

Books of true tales,
Mirrors of tragedy
Remorseful and pale
as in past, these news travels fast

The books of true tales,
Mirrors of tragedy
My life is no game
It's a real shame the false news travels fast

'''Prelude'''

*Phone rings
Hello?
Well, well how are you?
errr, who is this?
who do you think this is?
Stop it, who is this?
You know very well who i am you almost got away from me didn't you?
O my god, it can't be, you can't be
Oui, oui mon amour, c'est moi (translation: Yes, yes my love it's me)

'''Chapter One'''

I gave you my time
I gave you my whole life
I gave you my love, every dime
They told me it was... a crime

Do you remember?
Or did it all go in vain...

'''Chapter Two'''

I looked in the light, I sat in your coalmine
The promise they made, I should keep?
Make sure that we would never meet

I can't remember
The promise I made so deep

Tell me that past times won't die...
Tell me that old lies are alive

'''Chapter Three'''

Across darkened skies, I travelled without a light
I sank in the well of my mind
Too deep, never to be found

I can't remember...
How could you be so vain...

Tell me that past times wont die...
Tell me that old lies are alive
Love that expired too long time ago
Kills me, it thrills me...

'''Chapter Four'''

You have new love and
It looks good on you
I have never wished you dead, yet.

You can now have all the things I could never give to you
Look out the window "c'est 'moi"...

'''Chapter Five'''

I'm sorry, I am here
I'm not sure if it should bring you fear
I whisper in your ear
Why is he here?

'''Chapter Six'''
While you are sleeping, I steal your ear ring
Light you one candle, this anger I handle

They said I won't find you, but now I'm beside you
I'm not all that stable
You should know by know that you are mine...

Tell me that past times won't die... Tell me that old lies are alive

I tell you that past times won't die...
I tell you that old lies are alive
Love due to expire too long time ago
Kills me, it will kill you... too

That past times won't die...
I tell you that old lies are alive
Love due to expire too long time ago
Kills me, it will kill you... too

In love with the maiden, The flower of winter
Lowbrow children, in grove of the inland
How many times heart's gone thru the grinder
wherever you look there's a painful reminder

Singing a love song, words of a stranger
The howling miller, never to face her

Temple of the evil, Temple of the weak
no one knows how bad he feels
Late-night innuendo, tempetation of the key
"Live with the Blacksheep, live with me"

Insanity, blessing for those born to hate you
Burned by the embers of love, it is so cruel
Howling the night, for sun of the midnight
Serving the people, condemned you in the eternal night

of the lost song, words of the stranger
The howling miller, never to face her

Temple of the evil, Temple of the weak
no one knows how bad he feels
Late-night innuendo, tempetation of the key
"Live with the Blacksheep, live with me"

Temple of the evil, Temple of the weak
no one knows how bad he feels
Late-night innuendo, tempetation of the key
"Live with the Blacksheep, live with me"

Temple of the evil, Temple of the weak
no one knows how bad he feels
Late-night innuendo, tempetation of the key
"Live with the Blacksheep, live with me"

When I'm looking in your eyes
Everything seems to fade away
After all these years we had do I know you now
Have I trusted blindly in your love, too many times

You said: "hey, my love, I'm sorry but we can't go on 'cause
I'm in love with someone else"
Tell me, what do you want me to say
When you treat me this way

Oh I love you, maybe?
And I hope it goes away
How I want you daily
I know it's gonna stay

You are so self satisfied
Always ready for a ride
Double crossing, lousy cheat, love you anyway
You have warm and tender devils soul, you are so low

I can hear you say: "I'm sorry, should we still go on,
I'm not in love with that someone else"
Tell me, what do you want me to say
When you treat me this way

Oh I love you, maybe?
And I hope it goes away
How I want you daily
Tell me now that...

I have found the whore in you
Why can't I tell you no
Time will show, the last word is for me
If you fail to see the problem we have, one room full of walls
Jar of love isn't dry until the last drop falls

The moment I will step aside, you're ready for another ride
Walking in the cool night air without underwear
You have red light burning in your soul, I've seen the glow

In every dream I have I say: "I'm not in love with you"
But every day I say I do
You have messed with my head so many times
Forced me to love you (spoken)

Now that...
I have found the whore in you
Why Can't I tell you no
Time will show, the last word is for me
If you fail to see the problem we have, one room full of walls
I will try until the last drop falls

Now that...
I have found the whore in you
Why Can't I tell you no
Time will show, the last word is for me
If you fail to see the problem we have, one room full of walls
I will try until the last drop falls

You were daddy's girl nice and sweet
Never in trouble mommy's honey
Little child who just couldn't see
The pressure from her so called friends
Was simply too much

The monkey slowly climbed on her back
Offering a shade on her pain
Giving love and care
No-one cared, no-one cared...

Fragile like a rose on the snow
Eating all your strength and your money
Walking in the shades day and night
Never letting sunshine in your eyes like before

Cannot shake the monkey off your back
Did I see a spark on your eye
Was it just the last light of hope
That died, hope that died

"Forgive me, Father, my daily sin..."

How can I forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live like, you will die like
Haven of Emotion, Mournful Ocean
Heiress of the Evening Sings in silence

"I need to have now, my daily sin..."

For all your life I prayed for time
To show you where the light lies
Now this is the end, take care my friend
One rose for the memory of the innocence...

"I know, my Father, I cannot win..."

Never will forgive you, never leave you
You know that if you live like, you will die like
How can I erase your pain and aid you
When Death wants to kiss you and you want to kiss Him back...

[Instrumental]

Remember when we used to look
How sun sets far away
And how you said "This is never over"?
I believed your every word
And I guess you did too
But now you're saying
"Hey, let's think this over"

You take my hand and pull me next to you
So close to you
I have a feeling
You don't have the words
I found one for you
Kiss your cheek
Say bye and walk away
Don't look back
'Cause I am crying

I remember little things
You hardly ever do
Tell me why
I don't know why it's over
I remember shooting stars
The walk we took that night
I hope your wish came true
Mine betrayed me

You let my hand go
And you fake a smile for me
I have a feeling
You don't know what to do
I look deep in your eyes
Hesitate a while
Why are you crying?

Tallulah
It's easier to live alone
Than fear the time it's over
Tallulah
Find the words and talk to me
Oh, Tallulah
This could be
Heaven

I see you walking hand in hand
With long-haired drummer of the band
In love with her, or so it seems
He's dancing with my beauty queen
Don't even dare to say you "Hi"
Still swallowing the goodbye
But I know the feeling's still alive
Still alive...

I lost my patience once
So do you punish me now?
I'll always love you
No matter what you do
I'll win you back for me
If you give me a chance
But there is one thing you must understand

Tallulah
It's easier to live alone
Than fear the time it's over
Tallulah
Find the words and talk to me
Oh, Tallulah
This could be
''(repeat)''

Grant me a wish, my master
Take heed of me
I have been loyal servant
Heartfelt, humble

Gave up - what belongs to me
Gave up my greed
My self-examination
Made me see, to be me

I am now like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king

You say I am invincible
I cannot die,
I know, but anyway
The words, they maim me

Grant me a wish, my master
Compassion, please
I'd like to be a human
...maybe one day

I am now like Judas, done
Ashamed of what I've become
Fear for life I wear as a ring
To bask in your favor, I will kill the king

[Entreaty:]
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

I tried to be like everyone
Opened my soul
But what I had to give
Resulted loathing

Enchanted by the power
Licked by the grace
One beautiful black flower
The end of human race

With pride now face my fate
King and Queen now lie in state
Fear for life I wear as a ring
I bask in your favor, I have killed the king

[Entreaty:]
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
How can I sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

I had a nightmare
The Wolf eating The Raven
Entrails of life on my plate
And I ate 'em..

Interested in what I see
Try that Rorschach test on me
Have you seen the beauty of the
Enticing beast

[Entreaty:]
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
I cannot sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

[Entreaty:]
Let me go
Master, I hate you so
I cannot sleep my nights
When my whole being cries

Winter in here ain't as cold as they say
We have nature, yes, we know the way
Accomodation in the lap of the nature
Can give you a moving response,
If you have the time...

Violate the law of the wild, see her lose her temper
Drink the wine from her stream
Have a time, she's there for thee

Build the campfire in a place you know safe
And then see that you put it out right
Can you see trail of garbage in there
Maybe not, and that is a sign to follow

Violate the law of the wild, see her lose her temper
Drink the wine from her stream
Have a time, she's there for thee

You are still the number one
Wilderness, my soul
We may have or lose it all
Respect the wilderness, Respect the life
Save the nature for your unborn child

In the summertime we have night with no night
In the winter she will hide the light
Over the hills, hear the call of the wild
You have yearning to get there, Lapland, madness

Violate the law of the wild, see her lose her temper
Drink the wine from her stream
Have a time, she's there for thee

You are still the number one
Wilderness, my soul
We may have or lose it all
Respect the wilderness, Respect the life
Save the nature for your unborn child

Speaking:
My fathers land
My mothers tongue
Misleading me so shamelessly
For many years I misbelieved
That hatred is the path for me

Father I have killed many angels,
I think.
I will now walk to the sea.
I hope I will someday forgive me
Please moor my empty boat on a pier

I can blame for the blue blood that runs in my veins.
But I seem to forget that we are all the same.

In your own blaze of hate you've spawn the fear in many lives
You've taken action thinking it was all said on the signs.
You cannot heal the feeling burning deep inside your spine
You now collapse, cave in, revealing scabby marks of life

Mother I've seen too much, I hate to live my life.
Forgot every word you told me, stubborn little child, (angel of your life)
I have to find my Eden now, the gates I left behind.
The pain will remain.
No power to gain.

Now I have time to dwell on, self awareness, dreadful crime.
I saw the colors too bright, not knowing that I was blind.
I slayed a man who took a chance and drank the forbidden wine.
The map I draw reveals that I have been complete machine in team.

Father I've seen too much, I hate to live my life.
Forgot every word you told me, stubborn little child, (angel of your life)
I have to find my Eden now, the gates I left behind.
The pain will remain.
No power to gain no.

Mother where's your son.
When has this begun?
Who has been the fool?

No one was born to be a servant or a slave.
Who can tell me the color of the rain?
In the world that we live in, the things said and done
They can well overrun the power of one.

No one was born to be a servant or a slave.
Can you tell me the color of the rain?
In the world that we live in, the things said and done
They can well overrun the power of one.

To live and let die
To give hope and take life
Is that what you're here for?

To think that you are right
To make sure it won't fly
It's a making of a hate crime

In the homes of the brave,
In the homes of the land slaves,
We are all the same

I need to believe.
There's more than the eye can see
All colors of rainbow.

No one was born to be a slave
Seek the past and place the blame
Tell me the color of the rain
No one was born to be a master

In the land we live, we die
praise the oneness, praise the lie
To bind a web around the faker
We will need a true Rainmaker

No one was born to be a slave
Seek the past and place the blame
Tell me the color of the rain
No one was born to be a master

Speaking:
Children of Abel, Children of Cain
Can live in harmony, without shame.
The keys that I grant thee, The Sacred Land
Are dry desert sand on the palm of your hand.
Without the water, the wisdom of past
Will run through your fingers, forgotten so fast.
Thus now when I leave you, I'm truly blind
This blindness, this blessing, the hope of mankind...
