1. FUTUREAL

I'm running out of my time, I'm running out of breath
And now it's getting, so I can't sleep at night
In the day, feel like death

I'm getting in far too deep, I feel them closing in
I've got to say that I'm scared, I know they'll win
Even so, I'm prepared

[Chorus #1]
Do you believe what you hear ?
Can you believe what you see ?
Do you believe what you feel ?
Can you believe ?

[Chorus #2]
What is real ?
Futureal
What is real ?

Whenever anyone seems to treat me like a freak
It makes me see I'm the only one who feels
That I know what is real

Sometimes it feels like a game of deadly hide and seek
And when you're reading this, then I will be gone
Maybe then, you will see

[Chorus #1]

[Chorus #2]
Futureal

[Chorus #1]

[Chorus #2]
Futureal

[Chorus #2]
Futureal


2. THE EVIL THAT MEN DO

Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with the slaughter of innocence
And I will pray for her, I will call her name out loud
I would bleed for her if I could only see her now

Living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge
You know... You know...

[Chorus]
The evil that men do lives on and on (x4)

Circle of fire my baptisme of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me
And I will pray for you, some day I may return
Don't you cry for me, beyond is where I learn

Living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge
You know... You know...

[Chorus]

Living on a razor's edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razor's edge
You know... You know...

[Chorus]

The evil... The evil... The evil that men do (x2)


3. MAN ON THE EDGE

The freeway is jamned and it's backed up for miles
The car is an oven and baking is wild
Nothing is ever the way it should be
What we deserve we just don't get you see

A briefcase, a lunch and a man on the edge
Each step gets closer to losing his head
Is someone in Heaven ? Are they looking down ?
Nothing is fair just you look around

[Chorus]
Falling down, falling down, falling down (x2)

He's sick of waiting of lying like this
There's a hole in the sky for the angels to kiss
Branded a leper because you don't fit
In the land of the free you can live by your wits

Once he built missiles a nation's defence
Now he can't even give birthday presents
Across the city he leaves in his wake
A glimpse of the future, a cannibal state

[Chorus]

The freeway is jamned and it's backed up for miles
The car is an oven and baking is wild
Nothing is ever the way it should be
What we deserve we just don't get you see

A briefcase, a lunch and a man on the edge
Each step gets closer to losing his head
Is someone in Heaven ? Are they looking down ?
Nothing is fair just you look around

[Chorus] (x2)


4. THE ANGEL AND THE GAMBLER

Roll of a dice, take a spin of the wheel
Out of your hands now, so how do you feel ?
But you're not gonna win, you'd better go back again

Do you feel lucky or do you feel scared ?
Take what luck brings and be devil may care
But you're down on your luck and what will the nest day bring

Adrift on the ocean, afloat in a daydream
Or lost in a maze, or blind in the haze
So what does it matter, so why don't you answer
So why did you send an angel to mend

Best make decisions before it's too late
Take all your chances, take hold the reins
A roll of a dice ahead of the game again

Nothing to lose but so much to gain
A little danger, it goes without saying
But what do you care, you're gonna go in the end

Gate open to Heaven is ready and waiting
Or straight down to Hell, can go there as well
I'll suffer my craving, my soul's not worth saving
So why don't you go, just leave well alone

[Chorus]
Don't you think I'm a saviour
Don't you think I could save you
Don't you think I could save your life
Don't you think I'm a saviour
Don't you think I could save you
Don't you think I could save your life

[Chorus] (x5)

There's like a hunger that knocks on your door
You've had a taste of it still you want more
You've made your mistakes, won't play it the same again

You have been warned but still you plunge in
You play high stakes but there's nothing to win
You've only one life and so many things to learn

The angel on one side, the devil the other
Which path do you take ? Decisions to make
Arrive at the crossroads, you know where you're going
And what if you wait, it may be too late

[Chorus] (x5)
