1. ICE AND KNIVES

It's floating on thin air
Eyes are blind but you notice it...
It's crawling in your head
Just in time, you will leave your bead...

Don't try to call me out...

On a side
You'll see the gold rush
Ice and knives on your mind
If I'll reach
The whole world
It will end
'Cause their dream have to die

It's creeping on thin air
Eyes are blind but you notice it...

Don't try to call me out...


2. CRIMINAL UNDERWORLD

Over the hill there's a junkman
Holding the keys of your cage
He's got the night on his shoulders
And he's beginning to sleep

You've got the quickest hand
Now you can see the keys are falling
from his bag

Take his car and
Cross that river
He'll not find you
Know you must escape...

'Til morning light
'Til morning sun

You haven't seen people coming
He counts his cash all alone

You've got the quickest legs
Now I can see the tears are falling
from your eyes

Take his car and
Cross that river
He'll not find you
Know you must escape...

'Til morning light
'Til morning sun


3. ESCAPE

I think I'll jump out from the window 'cause it's hard
To stand this noise inside my head
Or I will climb into the darkness of your mind
This just as long as you won't break

Won't you heal me, don't you see I'm creepin?
Let me walk in through your nights
Can you lead me out into the light?
I will leave, I'm on the line!

I think I'll find out in the street the things I want
To stop this noise inside my head
Or I will climb into the brightness of your mind
This just as long as you won't break


4. BLUE

Perfect fall, I'm simply falling down
To touch the water, to immerse myself in silence
And loosing, lose the sky and falling down
Fading to blue, no more sounds

Never try, never try to save yourself
Never try, never try to catch a dream

Falling in your deep blue eyes, so much more in the se Pictures
Falling on these dreams ... attached to the wall
Falling on your bitter ends ... like glass upon my soul
Falling blood of killed dreams

Never try, never try to save yourself
Never try, never try to catch a dream

Every day I think I cam surrender
So I won't see the light today
I'll raise my hand to start to breathe ... again

Never try, never try to save yourself
Never try, never try to catch a dream


5. WALK ALONE

She will not go far, she stands in front of you
She is a spark and she's next to the powder keg
She'll blow you out boy, out from your sunny sky
She likes the dark and she keeps you down and out

Show me your spell now, I'll be your burning match
Now that I am bounded, I'm tied to what she wants

The show is over now
The time is out
You will get nothing
Nothing at all
Th life you're chasing out
It's just a theft
You'll be the broken one
A soul for rent

She'll blow you out boy, you'll be a living wreck
She doesn't turn back, she walks the road alone


6. CITY LIGHTS

Sir, tonight my old paper wings
Are burning down
With the city lights...

No, this ain't just a noir film
No, this ain't a kind of happy ending
Maybe some kind of hole
Where you are swimming low
No, this ain't just a boring film
Hey, this ain't a kind of happy ending
To feed this hungry hole
RThis night you're leaving home

A life inside red glass boxes
You know, this ain't the life I will
Upon this big wheek, you're turnin'
Keep searching you muses gift

... To feed this hungry hole
This night you're leaving home

8. HERE AND NOW

Here ... there is something wrong, it's like
They ... are blaming someone else
Now ... there are crying hearts
And it ... seems ... they won't leave me alone

Strength, it's getting the ash
That's feeding from hell
... It's burning under the faith
To justify hate,
It sounds like it's fake
It's killing people since ages

Watch the clouds, the night is over
Now the black is turning blue
Here and now, the sky is open
Guess somehow we'll see the truth

Here ... there is something bad, it's like
They ... are blaming someone else
Now ... there are crying hearts
And it ... seems ... it won't leave me alone

Strength, it's getting the ash
That's feeding from hell
... It's burning under the faith
To justify hate,
It sounds like it's fake
It's killing people since ages

They won't be beside you ... when you're gone
And you'll finally find ... that you're lost, alone
Just come back to it ... don't swim too slow
Speak your name out loud ... again ... again!


9. THE FLOOD

Glasses on the floor
Keep wolves at your door
Pictures on the wall
Down the corridor

Out and not delivered
Lost but not forgiven
Just the sign of time
Since 1999

She seeks your protection
And follows your direction
Know it's not the same
If you cut the leaves again

Wounded bird
Black crows in the sun
Here comes the flood
Washing out the road

It's a season of broken clouds
Shadows and rain
It walks out through the black above
... Won't you come in?

Back drift crawling
Shifted, spoiled
Towards the breaking
Feet are sinking
Splinters on it
Leave them falling
Towards the braking
Feet are sinking


10. YOUR NEXT WISH

I've got a car
My boots and a lighter
Don't need good luck
I'll travel far through white lines
Under your hair
The mind of a liar
Get out my way
I will go back through black holes

Eyes on ice
Don't you?...
I'm trying to have a sip of it
On a side
'Cause I...
I will not take a rest
I will be part of this moment
I'll keep on swimming in this ocean
On and on and on

Hide out
from the silver screen
Pull it out 'cause it's overloaded
You fight it and you hide it
Tear my soul away

I've got a job
My house and head-coach
Don't need good luck
I'll travel far through white lines
Under your hair
The mind of a liar
Get out my way
I will go back through black holes


11. WAR

Out through the deserts and rains
They guide their men to glory
Now that the wind is changin'
They can rush down and destroy them

Knowin' the truth inside 'em
They run down through the firth, lead on

Tell me, will of gods up above
Time to face out the lords of the war
They rule the fear inside us
And their army will kill evermore

Keep 'em in hunger and pain
Keep all their minds in the cold
Put their shadows to the hell
All they can do is surrender

Knowin' the truth inside 'em
Runnin' down through the firth, lead on

Tell me, will of gods up above
Time to face out the lords of the war
They rule the fear inside us
And their army will kill evermore

Tell me, will of gods up above
Time to face out the lords of the war
They rule the fear inside us
And their army will kill ever...

Tell me, will of gods up above
Time to face out the lords of the war
They rule the fear inside us
And their army will kill evermore


12. IT'S NOT OUR PLACE

I think the city will eat us alive, here, tonight
But we don't have to worry right now...
Not now
... Not now
And I think your sadness will bring you to bed soon tonight
But you don't have to worry right now...
Don't hide it
Don't hide it right now
Don't hide it...
... Our car is outside
And we just have to ride through the town
To blow away the daze
We will get drunk 'till

Sun will come up just to slap us again, here inside
But now it's not the time...
Just blow away the daze
We will get drunk 'cause
It's not our place and it's not our time
Never...
Oh, never
Never...
For us
I think the city will eat us alive, here, tonight
But we don't have to worry right now...
Don't hide it
Don't hide it right now
Don't hide iit...

Voices:
('Till morning light)
