DISC 1

1. OPEN YOUR EYES

Hide your face forever
Dream and search forever

Have you ever been for sale?
When your isms get smart
Oh so selfish and mindless
With that comment in your eye
Do you think that you are hard?
Really harder than the other
Man you're acting cold
If you are not in charge
Don't split your mentality
Without thinking twice
Your voice has got no reason
Now is the time to face your lies

Open your eyes, open your mind
Proud like a god don't pretend to be blind
Trapped in yourself, break out instead
Beat the machine that works in your head

Will you offer me some tricks
If I ever need them
Would you go into that room
If I call 'em
Do you think that you are better
Really better than the rest
Realize there's a problem
I know that you can give your best
Have you ever had a dream?
Or is life just a trip?
A trip without chances
A chance to grow up quick

Open your eyes, open your mind
Proud like a god don't pretend to be blind
Trapped in yourself, break out instead
Beat the machine that works in your head

Hide your face forever
Dream and search forever
Night and night you feel nothing
There's no way outside of my land

Open your eyes, open your mind...


2. MARIA

Maria,...

Raw muscles in you
And you kill for the thrill to get into this
Might not be sure
To get into the sin for the human race

Maria,...

Raw muscles in you
And you kiss for the thrill to get into this
Might not be sure
To get into the sin for the human race

Give it up and give up...


3. RAIN

I'm alone
Can't wait until I feel your rain
So unreal
Can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
I'm alone
Can't sleep until I feel your rain

How can I find
Love, Faith and Trust inside of your rain
So unreal, can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
So untrue
Help me to find through your warm rain

I send out my wishes
You gave me promises
Why don't you feel the same
(I'm sad, I feel like a little child,
Somebody left, there is no rain)

Oh no, I'm waiting
How about your rain?
I can't believe
I still believe in your rain
Like in heaven
I can't wait until I feel your rain
So where's your life
Who's living the rest of your life
I can't, I can't
I can't live this life, I can't live this life

I can't see in your eyes
Can't change it, no more tries
Leave everyone with a smile
And you're sad, you feel like a little child
Somebody's leftthere is no rain

I send out my wishes
You gave me promises
Why don't youfeel the same
(I'm sad, I feel like a little child,
Somebody left, there isnorain)


4. LORDS OF THE BOARDS

I got the snowboard under my feet.
I can fly so high I can fall so deep.
But who do I see comin' up the track?
A little green man with his snowboard on his back.

And now I'm flying like an angel to the sun.
My feet are burning and I grab into another world.

With the lords of the boards
You'll come and get around

With the lords of the boards, go mad like a clown

I can stay behind him if I can.
I wanna be a little more thanan "also-ran".
Through every curve he's got me beat.
And maybe's time that I accept defeat.


5. CROSSING THE DEADLINE

The sand, the sand it covers the land
It's just a victim
You didn't stop it
High noon and the walk brings the storm with it
Born to it or lay on it

Day on day, night on night
With the thrill of a kid on my side
I will survive
As long as this trip will go
With my soul

I search for water
You need the cold
Bring me some bubbles and a crown of gold
Crossing the deadline befor it's too late
The finger snaps to the center of anger, wait

Cross the line you will suffer
(No bridge, just one step)
Cross the line...
(No bridge, no way back)
Cross the line...
(Better give, better stand up)
Cross the line...
(Better give up, better shut up)

So where's the mountain
I can't reach the top of this world


6. WE USE THE PAIN

Could you step away, I'm a vicious girl
Could you fill the break
We're on the right way, to swing the little axe
It's the right day, to give up the tax

We use the pain, for our fantasy
We need some pain to find the right way
We love the pain and want some more of it
Control the pain, chickenhead!

Right way turning, listen we are learning
Head full of noise
Chickens got no choice
Heads are rollin'
Chickenblood is stolen
The rest of the chicken
Wants to picke-nicken

Could you feed your chicken, cause I'm hungering
Drinks and chips for free
The muscles like Bruce Lee

We use the pain, for our fantasy
We need some pain to find the right way
We love the pain and want some more of it
Control the pain, chickenhead!

Right way turning, listen we are learning
Head full of noise
Chickens got no choice
Heads are rollin'
Chickenblood is stolen
The rest of the chicken
Wants to picke-nicken

Painfull, the table's red
Big storm and no regret
Dark side, we use the pain
Captain, we are lost insane
Mother, we cut the dump, mother
Mother, we all, we all, we all

Right way turning, listen we are learning
Head full of noise
Chickens got no choice
Heads are rollin'
Chickenblood is stolen
The rest of the chicken
Wants to picke-nicken


7. NEVER BORN

Love is like a shelter
Brings me through the storm
Life is full of anger
Maybe I'm dead again now
Maybe there's life in me
So much stronger than the world gives it to me

Here's the deal, leave it or not
What a surprise, your baby's unborn

Nothing else is deeper
Nothine else is good
No-one cares about the blood in you
I see you through that all
I feel you thorugh the wall
Save my child and I save...

I in me and you are here now
Hold it, save it, never let me down again

I don't feel the darkness
Don't feel anything
Pressure's lost and pressure's good with you
Don't move and don't hide secrets
Play hard, don'tplay alone
Move the soul without your own control

Nothing else is deeper
Nothineelse is good
No-one cares about the blood in you
I see you through thatall
I feel you thorugh the wall
Save my child and I save...

I in me and you are here now
Hold it, save it, never let me down again

What'cha sayin'...
Watch again...
Why you're here...
No-one cares...

I in me and you are here now
Hold it, save it, never let me down again


8. WASH IT DOWN

Imagine all the words we're spitting
Would be killing inside
Being trapped inajungle
Be cool don't fight
There are no enemies no justice
But now you needrevenge
Everytime I show my faces
To earn your request

I'm an absolute beginner
(She's an absolute beginner)
And I need to commit
(She needs to commit)

I wash it you kick it and spoil it with dirt
Nevermind I've got two faces andone of it hurts

What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
Wash it down

And when you roam with the storm
I'm coming your way
No-one can stop me
It's the upcoming day
Which shows you the truth
And then your life gets_ confused
You might wash a white shirt without my lust

I'm an absolutebeginner
(She's an absolute beginner)
And I need to commit
(She needs to commit)

I wash it you kick it and spoil it with dirt
Nevermind I've got two faces andone of it hurts

What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
Wash it down


9. SCAPEGOAT

I will pray to lord
I run too far away from home

But I, when I will cross the sea alone
Cos' I can feel the energy
When the lord's been crying
Too many years

I will walk away for them
I see their thoughts in me again

But I, when I will dream this dream again
Cos' I can take this blame on me now

When the lord has been crying for me
Is my lord really crying
This long time for me?
For me again

But I, when I will dream this dream again
Cos' I can take this blame on me now


10. GET BUSY

What I am, what I am getting older
What I need is a man by my shoulder
What I am, what you are
Allright I'm sick of your lying there

Look at me, look at me growing colder
Everyday, I get a little bolder
What I am, what you are
Allright I'm sick of your lying there

And when you lie there
Why must I lie there

Why am I, why am I feeling stronger
Now the days and the nights getting longer
What I am, what you are
Allright I'm sick of your lying there

And when you lie there
Why must I lie there

But I try to survive in a whores dress
Something I'm getting out there keeps me god-blessed
My mother told me, priest just told me
Too fast and you'll spend your whole life paying out
My brother's getting sicker, sicker
While my pretty sister sits there
Bitchin' about her figure
Time to move and get away
Get away and open up to your freedom today

And when you lie there
Why must I lie there


11. SUZIE

Hello, my name is Suzie
And I dream for a better, better glory
God bless you and I bless you
I'm angry why don't you squeeze me
The stage is my home and I guess when I roam
Things could get out of my head
God bless you and I leave you
When the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah!

Hello, my name is Suzie
Don't spit on the floor like a loony
I'll bite you, so don't bite me
I'm angry why don't you squeeze me
The pain is my home and I guess when I roam
Things blow away my thoughts
God bless you and I catch you
When the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah!

Hello, it's still Suzie
Ready to play what you like
Ready to say what you don't say
Immediately to do sports
Suffering a new holocaust
Don't hit me, you will miss me
When the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah!

Slide and winge dall the memories
Sing with me this little irony
You won't escape from this reality
Let us do such a sport activity

My time's too short
I missed the mark and
I can't remember why


12. TRIBUTE

This is a grave day
People wanna hear it
People wanna smell it
They give you their cigarette
The way you look
Don't ever change in the mirror
You have promised yourself
To be straight
Straight up into the sun
So show me
Your real face
Send all your wishes
I'll give them all to you
With that money you're getting cruel
Is that the shit you're waiting for
And now you want more and more

I'm falling asleep (x2)

And if you don't like it
You'd better find another way

What would you do to get your money back
I'm all in the game, ready to be quick cuz
What you earn
And what you say
Isn't there not a fee no one likes to pay

Tell me why
Tell me how
Tell me your secrets
I'm sick of this
Don't play with that money child
You look so funny
Yes that's the shit you're waiting for
Now I know it better
Get out the door

What would you do to get your money back
I'm all in the game, ready to attack cuz
What you earn
And what you say
Isn't there not a fee no one likes to pay

Yeah I know I know it's better (x3)

Ha ha ha ha I need it

Wat'cha earnin'
I need it
Wat'cha sayin'
I need it
Wat'cha feelin'
I need it

Ha ha ha ha I need it
Ohhhh

Alright a man (x4)

What would you do to get your money back
I'm all in the game, ready to attack cuz
What you earn
And what you say
Isn't there not a fee no one likes to pay

Too much to pay
Ohh
