Lyrics


1. Passion Departed
I've tried so many times
Have lied when we were blind
You act all so concerned
It seems you'll never learn

Don't say I'm evil inside
You just reflect in my eyes
And now stay out of sight
I just wanna survive

CHORUS:
We are sinking
Fear is grinding
Passion departed
I'm not a taker
Nor heartbreaker
Love can't be charted

Please don't act so surprised
You should know what it's like
Sweet talk just does no good
Although I wish it would

It's not just you who's terrified
Who's spinning round and round inside
I hope the answer will arrive
- 2. You`re The One
Now I know how it feels
This is not just a dream
All I can see is you
I need to be with you

Angels have come to show
Just which way I should go
All I can see is you
I need to be with you

CHORUS:
You're the one who changed my life
When you said you'll be all mine
I'm just scared of losing sight

Can't resist it no more
Can't hold back my own thoughts
All I can see is you
I need to be with you

You have changed my sense of time
I can't get you off my mind
I'm afraid you're stuck for life

I know,The past made you become my worst enemy
But this time, it's gonna work
- 3. Fake Believer
You're a great big talker
Tell them what to do
Giving out directions
You don't follow through

You're a great complainer
Haven't done a thing
Good at pointing fingers
Acting like a king

CHORUS:
Fake believers
Spreading all around
Crave approval
Before they let you down

Counting on emotions
Of the blinded crowd
Making sense means nothing
When you've got no ground

Flames are growing
Burning inside out
False and spineless
It's time to throw them out
- 4. Friends
You feel the way I do
Love has changed its course
Crashed upon the shore
I can see it in your eyes
I can feel the hurt,
Far beyond the word 'good bye

CHORUS:
Now that it's over
Now that we´re at the end
Can we start over
Back to when we were FRIENDS

Love, more than just a touch
More than just a word
Many times it hurts
I believe in you and I
Think I've found a way,
We can stand the test of time

Now that it's over
Now that we´re the end
Can we start over
Back to when we were FRIENDS

Last Chorus:
Now...
Now...
WE CAN start over
Back...
- 5. Mad Queen
You caught me with your eyes
I can feel what's on your mind
Just like a gentle breeze
Touching only when you please

CHORUS:
Shut down
She's a mad queen
Watch out
She's a love machine

I fall into a trance
Every time I watch you dance
Let's end what you've begun
Sure your love, what you have done
- 6. Pardon The Difference
Instrumental
- 7. Little Wild Thing
Hard and cold she seems
To one who does not know her
But deep down inside she's warm and bright
I know her

CHORUS:
Little wild thing
You've got that something
Little sweet thing
Misunderstood thing

She's heard it all and built a wall to save her
And she does not like for someone to control her
She ain't no fake , just give and take
I love her

Such a precious mind is hard to find I told her
She did not reply just gave a sign to love her
- 8. Can`t Resist
I have never seen her cry
Hasn't shown the slightest smile, oh
Doesn't share her deepest thoughts
She just lets her body talk

CHORUS:
I can't resist
Gotta go and kiss her
With a scattered mind
Can't see in her eyes of stone

I don't think she's hurt inside,
Just reserved with a sense of pride, oh
Thinking what's gonna make her show
Straight attack is gonna let me know

I just can't resist
Gotta steal a kiss
It's like hit or miss
Got a scattered mind
Oh - Oh - Oh
I'm burning inside
- 9. Talked Too Much
I wonder who really cares!
What is happening everywhere
TV is bringing the news
More killing, more abuse

We've fought too
We've lied too
We've talked too much

I wonder who I can blame
I just can not call a name
No guilt is crossing
My mind
But sadness deep inside

We've fought too
We've lied too
We've talked too much

CHORUS:
We've chosen to shoot us
And now we're the losers

We're fighting day after day
Taking orders and obey
Deep down we're feeling the same
Distrust and fear of pain

We've chosen to shoot us
And now we're the losers

We've fought too
We've lied too
We've talked too much

We've chosen to shoot us
And now we're the losers
- 10. Glove Of Stone
Do you know why I'm cold as ice
Why we don't seem to harmonize
Don't care to talk
Can't even cry

Chorus:
With a glove of stone
You've got no control
All the words you say
Are nothing but lies

I can handle it once or twice
Being stepped on is part of life
But not by you
Don't even try

With a glove of stone
You´ve got no control
Like a smile in pain
I couldn't reply

Now you wonder what's on my mind
Whether you have been right or wrong
It's up to you
Time to decide

Like smile in pain
I couldn't reply

It's your choice to change
If love is your guide
- 11. Outsider
I don't mind simple rules so we won't live like cavemen
But I won't let them take what is left of my freedom

Chorus:
So tired, worn out
My tears are gone
Outsider
But not the only one

All I hear 's don't do this, don't do that
You're a madman
Had enough I'm not just their political trash can

You may think I'm a fool who is living in dreamland
Rather that,
Than like you who are walking on quicksand, oh

So tired, worn out
My tears are gone
Outsider
Is what I have become...
