Lyrics


1. 1000 PAPER CRANES

1945
One big bang, but I'm still alive
1945
Thousands killed, but I'm still alive

And before I die
I don't play no games
I'm gonna make
1000 paper cranes

God
Are you there?
If you're there
Why don't you help down here?
God
Something's wrong
With my blood
I won't live for long


2. FALLEN ANGEL

18 years old
Still lives with his mom
With nothing to fear
And nothing too dear

In their driveway
His love and his passion
His wheels and his manhood
A ninja 900

He
Yet a soldier
In god's army
For the fallen
He
Lost his life
On the road
Fallen angel

His mom lies awake
When he drives away
But his friends gets impressed
When he revs to the max


3. ESCAPING THE CLOUDS

Shivering knees
I see the dark angel
Covered in blood
I sacrifice to be clean

Running again
When the clouds are growing
Escaping the clouds
That covers my heart

Enter dark
Light a candle
Let them know you are proud
And scream it out loud

A gift left unopened
What joy can it bring
Where can I go?
I have confession to make


4. EYE OF THE STORM

Love can find its way through sadness
When it's overdue
Love can be the strongest castle
When it's all thought through

In the eye of the storm
We'll be watching
The world disappears as we know
And I'm taking you home

Take my hand and I will guide you
Past the depths of hell
I will be the rock you stand on
There's no time to dwell


5. THROUGH DIRT

We go against who knows
We go against the flow
We do what we believe is the only way

We fight for what we stand for
No one can make us crumble
We are a force that is to be reckoned with

Through dirt and despair
Through anger and pain
You're still the same

We steadily grow in numbers
People from every corner
Have heard the message of love to all

So gather everybody
Draw your breath
Get ready
For a final scream
Let's go
Oh yeah


6. LIKE HAIL FROM BLUE SKY

These days they come and go
I wonder why it's so
Arrive forever more
Bringing bastards and whores

And I can't get no sleep
Is it coffee or this guilt of mine
Why I can't get no sleep
Am I a victim or a product of time

Like hail from blue sky
Leaving laughter left to die
Like gold-plated tin
A smile to your grin


7. LOVE REFLECTION

Hey Mr. Cruelty
Seems exciting to do your steps
I'm so inspired yeah
All temptation you can offer

How can I be your fortune
Even if I do not care
Why keep your secret treasure
Even without love reflection

I know you always will
Embrace me when I call you
But I will rather be
Your enemy until the end


8. NEVER FALL

You've been my love for so long
You've been my only hope
You've been my temptress
Oh yeah

My will is weak in front of you
You wrap me around your finger
I am the dirt beneath your shoes

I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall again

You got me running at the wall
You make me pull my hair
Do I still have a chance with you?


9. ETERNITY IN FIRE

Priests and thiefs
Equal sinners
What you do can't keep you out

Good or evil
What's most tempting
Your reputation can't keep you out

You'll be sentenced to
Eternity in fire


10. RAINBOW'S END

Far away
I know there's chances for me
Turn around
I will pack my bags and leave
Any day I'll catch the train
I'm southbound
Shangri-la, I'll lay it under my feet

And I'm waiting for the next bend
Over and over again
Where the skyline will rise
And shine like the rainbow's end

Rainbow's end
Shine like the rainbow's end
Rainbow's end

The big city's shining bright
A siren sings into the night
The jungle here is thick and wild
Lost again like a child

Yes, I still believe in days to come
After all
These years have come and gone

Cathedral bells
Oh, I hear them chime
Shangri-la is nowhere to find
