Asylum Pyre : Fifty Years Later
Teksty
1. WILL YOU BELIEVE ME?
Oh... We have lost our way... Somewhere...
All his life he's been an honest man
And he has...
Never thought it would come to this
As you do...
If we go back in time will you change?
And understand...?
Will you believe me...?
I'm dead in Copenhagen...
2. DEAD IN COPENHAGEN
Drawing the future in your golden planes...
Please remember we are living in the same plains...
Standing still
Watching you... waiting for... a new deal
We just ask you to share the bill
For us the damages are already... real...
You had the power
To turn the tide
What have you done with your cash and your damn pride?
What a cold shower!
The hope of us all
Is fading away like a last station call
What have you done?
Are you really conscious that you are unconscious?
Will our hopes... fall again?
Condemning the climate and also the precious...Link...
The precious Chain
You fools!
You're no leaders - you are traders!
I can't "keep cool"
Cos' we can't wait another year...
For you a billion dollars... is just loose change... as are are our lives!
You had the power
To turn the tide
What have you done with your cash and your damn pride?
What a cold shower!
The hope of us all
Is fading away like a last station call
Do you know Me?
(I'm) dead in Copenhagen
Do you see Me?
(I'm) dead in Copenhagen
Talking like windmills
Trading for... the right to kill
Dying - drowning
Oh please, catch my hand...
You had the power
To turn the tide
What have you done with your cash and your damn pride?
What a cold shower!
The hope of us all
Is fading away like a last station call
Do you know Me? I'm living far away
Dead in Copenhagen
Do you see Me? 'Cos I'm on your way
Dead in Copenhagen
Dead in Copenhagen
Dead in Copenhagen
With you!
3. THE FROZEN WILL
Too many blows into her face...
She has lost the will to run the race...
Don't stay alone with your thoughts
Locked into her room without a light
She's diving into an eternal night
Come... look at me...
Do you think... you could free me and...
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
We will try to understand your fears
We will try to understand your tears
Still you've got some cards to play
We'll take the time to refloat your ship...
To bring back a smile to your lips
We'll take the time to refloat your ship...
To bring back the will to contine the trip!
Come... look at me...
Do you think... you could free me and...?
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
Free... Free The Fire... Free The Fire!
Freed - the will inside of me
Is now burning intensely
I rise again
Freed - the will inside of me
Is now burning intensely
I rise again
Free - the will inside of me
The fire sleeping deeply
I am frozen
Freed - the will inside of me
Is now burning intensely
I rise again
4. THESE TREES
Green...
Used to be your horizon
As far as the eye can see
But now the walls of the prison
Are closing in
Down...
Another one is falling down...
I can't take anymore!
We must try to save the earth's gown
And I will fight for...
...Their roots are ours
Down to the forest, it's a fantasy
I felt down - I'm now feeling high
Let me breathe... in their arms
Let me take a last photograph
And I will fight for these trees
Yes I will fight for these trees
Till death!!!!!!!
Into our everyday life
We are playing with...
A great fork and a great knife
The Hunger of the...
...Town! It's the hunger of the town
As big, as endless as ours
We all want everything
...Every thing...
Stop!... Stop the destroying process...
Before we reach checkmate
Stop it! Before it is too late!
Oh Please, please...
From Rio to the Congo
The same tragedy
From Tokyo
To New York City
Open your eyes now
Down to the forest, it's a fantasy
I felt down - I'm now feeling high
Let me breathe... in their arms
Let me take a last photograph
And I will fight for these trees
Yes I will fight for these trees
Till death!!!!!!!
Down to the forest, it's a fantasy
I felt down - I'm now feeling high
Let me breathe... in their arms
Let me take a last photograph
Fight for this green paradise
It's the light shining in your eyes
Burning it, it's burning your life
Yours and those to come...
And I will fight for these trees
Yes I will fight for these trees
Till death!!!!!!!
5. THE HERD
Wake up! Now!!
Wake up! Now!!
Wake up! Now!!
Our active laziness
A murder in silence
The Herd with mindlessness
Is trampling our chance
Forever in desire... Lost!
"To have and play" ...to pay...
You're on the razor fire
(You're) abusing science
(Just) living for today
And no regrets
You wash it all away
You don't want to be bothered
But Life is not "The Love Boat"...
They shine so bright
The things you flee
And at first sight
You are far... from being free
Since you were born
You don't try for the best
Searching for more
And no questions in your quest
You've never tried to think
'Bout things that really matter
But Life is not "The Love Boat"...
Wake up! Now!!
That's pure insanity
Promoted and spurred
You're passively guilty
You're within the Herd!
Now try to... Think differently
Now try to... Live differently
Always other people and never you?
Take a new look at yourself too
Ask yourself: "Am I in the herd?"
Like I ask to myself: "Am I in the herd?"
Ask Yourself... Like I do...
6. FISHERMAN'S DAY
Lost is the key on the fisherman's day
Will we recover it, I couldn't say...
Black is the sea in this heavenly bay
All he can do now is kneel down and pray
Giants were the trawlers who raped the seabed
Tons of cadavers have painted it red
Synthetic jellyfish are proliferating
While the uprooted coral is fading
Faraway fisherman on your frail skiff
The cities have vomited over the cliff
And you have been hit by a stray bullet
With all the fish that once filled your net
Lost is the key on the fisherman's day
Deep in the waters where he used to play
All he can do now is kneel down and pray
Under the gentle stroke of the spray
Lost is the key on the fisherman's day
Will we recover it, I couldn't say...
Black is the sea in this heavenly bay
All he can do now is kneel down and pray
Fisherman's day
The judgement day
The first of all... to fall
Who will follow?
Fisherman's day
The judgement day
Who will follow?
7. AGAINST THE SAND
Our hands... Have become one
And so have got old together
It used - to be so easy
We used - to be so strong
The beat of the song
Is now getting fast... and heavy
Holding the rope
Hope against hope
We will face the slope
Do not lose your grip
Hold on, Let it rip!
Oh my love...
Take a rest upon my shoulder
"When we were younger
We were much stronger"
But we will
Stand - till the end - with the energy of despair
Stand - while reason is here
Stand until the final breath takes away the last word
We are not dead yet!
Come on! My Friend!
Come on!
Let's do it! Let's do it!
Take that bend
And till the end
We'll stand as one
So our memories last forever
Fight against waste
And laziness
Fight against the law...
...Of the sand... falling
Like a Guillotine
Hurry up!
Raging like we were teenagers
We're getting older
We're getting stronger
But we will
Stand - till the end - with the energy of despair
Stand - while reason is here
Stand until the final breath takes away the last word
We are not dead yet!
Take a rest upon my shoulder
We'll face together
The sandstorm anger
And we will
Stand until the storm carries away the dust of our bones Into a spiral to the skies
Where all the words that we have said are echoing, but...
We are not dead yet!
Stand until the storm carries away the dust of our bones Into a spiral to the skies
Where all the words that we have said are echoing, but...
We are not dead yet!
8. ANY HYPOTHESIS
[Part I: Dizzy]
Are we... living?
The answer's... lost
Is there a trail
On which we can sail... on...?
Space is bending
Time is a ring
On which we can dance
The sun is shining
A star is watching
Over you...
[Part II: Hypothesis]
Was the clay fertile?
Children of The Nile?
Tell... Me... Now!!
A God? A magician?
Tell... Me... Now!!
The Chance on a mission
Subject of an experiment
There's a scientist... looking at you!
Are we the atoms of a bigger brain?
Are there other worlds floating in our veins?
Are we in a chain?
What... is there?
Around our universe
Take me to a new... truth!
On these ways...
I'm carried away
Oh the haze! Of what we cannot conceive
A veil over the world
A veil? A wall! Any Hypothesis
Is allowed on this wall
Maybe I'm... An avatar
Maybe I could seed a though...
Is... my mind... a liar?
Are we in a matrix? Caught!
I can change physical laws
Can bring life to what I draw
I can fly to "Formax A" shores
Through black holes...
Or like they do it in... Star Wars
Like they do it in... Star Wars
My mind is drifting away
Oh the haze! Of what we cannot conceive
A veil over the world
A veil? A wall! Any Hypothesis
Is allowed on this wall
...Void...
From The Void...
Oh... Where are we?
In the thoughts... of a dreamer
In the center?
In a corner?
Where is the truth?
Tell me the truth!
Tell me now... tell me now the truth!
Several chances like a flower?
One more try after the winter?
Deleted when the computer... will... crash...?
Oh the haze! Of what we cannot conceive
A veil over the world
A veil? A wall! Any Hypothesis
Is allowed on this wall
It's raging - Deep in my heart
It's raging - Deep in my art
It's raging - Without avail!
Oh the haze! Of what we cannot conceive
A veil over the world
A veil? A wall! Any Hypothesis
Is allowed on this wall
Where is the truth?
Tell me the truth!
Is there a truth?
Sure there is, let me tell you...
Is there someone to answer me?
Is there a life?
Do you know the sense of life?
Is there a sense to life?
A new world's born at each instant
There are many parallel worlds
Is it a never-ending story?
Or is there an end?
Is there a life... after life?
9. JUST BEFORE THE SILENCE
The day has finally come
Give me air, I need some...
This letter in my hand
I'm staring at my hand
With tears in my eyes
Take... my... life...
Take my life!
I have no regrets for the things that I've done
But their minds are on the run
Now my body's caught in this strange vibration
I need a salvation
My friends, I need you!
Time knows the score - and plays with my nerves
I can't speak no more - losing all my verve
Oh damn!
My breath is short - I really need your support
Sing with me!
My breath is short - I really need your support
Sing with me! Sing with me!
My mind is upside down
I am feeling very down
(I) fear the banknote and the gun
And the burn of the sun
"I know I'm gonna die
I'll watch you from the sky
Now stand up and be strong!
Write and complete my song"
I have no regrets for the things that I've done (Salvation)
But their minds are on the run (Damnation)
Now my body's caught in this strange vibration (Madness calls)
I need a salvation
My friends, I need you!
Time knows the score - and plays with my nerves
I can't speak no more - losing all my verve
Oh damn!
My breath is short - I really need your support
Sing with me!
My breath is short - I really need your support
Sing with me! Sing with me!
Ahhhhhhhhhh - Wasting our time
Ahhhhhhhhhh - Wasting our time
On this morning
Another one
Has been found dead on the high street
A leaf has been left upon his mouth like a warning... a threat
If you're on my way... on the highway...
You're gonna die!!!!!
Wash away the sweat from my temples
Oh! Stay with me! - Stay with me!
Take a seat and wait with me a little
Oh! Stay with me! - Stay with me!
Everybody lives it differently, that's my way
Sing with me! - Sing with me!
Please help me to face my very last days
Oh please: Sing with me! - Sing with me! Sing!!!
Time knows the score - and plays with my nerves
I can't speak no more - losing all my verve
Oh damn!
My breath is short - I really need your support
Sing with me! Sing with me!
10. FIFTY YEARS LATER
I wander through ruins...
The land where we were born...
Has been trashed and torn!
The Magic of the rainforest
The smiles of its residents
Victims of an incest
Religions and Men
Euros, Dollars, Yen...
Have written "The End"
With their bloody pen...
We thought we were kings
With endless futures
Everything's falling
Fifty years later...
The mines are empty
And so is the sea
Bees and flowers have passed...
Everywhere people are walking aimlessly...
Trying to live without trees
How long will it last?
Lands have been drained
On their skins... nothing will... ever grow again!
Religions and Men
Euros, Dollars, Yen...
Have written "The End"
With their bloody pen...
We thought we were kings
With endless futures
Everything's falling
Fifty years later...
Eternally
We'll regret our history
The last snow and the last tree
Will live in our memories
'Till we die...
God if you're here...
Oh please, please: "Take me - take me
Far from this cemetery"
In deep space will ring loudly
Eternal cries
We've been jesters...
We've wasted it...
We're sorry mother, if...
We've forced you to call it quits...
Religions and Men
Euros, Dollars, Yen...
Have written "The End"
With their bloody pen...
We thought we were kings
With endless futures
Everything's falling
Fifty years later...
Eternally
We'll regret our history
The last snow and the last tree
Will live in our memories
'Till we die...
God if you're here...
Oh please, please: "Take me - take me
Far from this cemetery"
In deep space will ring loudly
Eternal cries
I'm just asking for a little breeze
Just to dry an old man's tears...
But the wind has gone with all the trees
I'm left with all my fears...
Alone... in Fifty years...
