Les paroles

1. IN THE BEGINNING

Pages were written turn yellow the age of the rhyme
Sadly confused by us with the passing of time
Oh no I tell you no lie no madman am I

Give me another chance and another way
Give me another time and another day
Give me a part in another play

Silken the hand that has touched me and helped me till now
Torment replaces the feelings the faces somehow
Oh no I tell you no lie no madman am I

Give me another chance and another way
Give me another time and another day
give me a part in another play

Words that are whispered surround me and call to my ear
Courage embrace me though tears may forsake me I fear
Oh no I tell you no lie no madman am I

Give me another chance and another way
Give me another time and another day
Give me a part in another play

Will someone take my place
I'm the prince of dreams but no one knows my face
I've come to rest my mind
Help me understand and see what I can find

What's this before me now
What's that behind
It's the prophet of the morning star

He's not so blind
He calls to me so clear
Saying very soon sorrow will be here
But before they pull you down
There's just one chance for you to stay around

Or else a war to end all wars
Sink without a trace
I am the prince of dreams
And you shall know my face
Find the light that shines on everyone
Someone shines the light for me
Look inside yourself to understand
The questions answered now I see


2. BABY ROCK ME

Ohhh ohhhh madness.....oh

Well I got nothing to lose, I've paid my dues
Aint' got no one to deceive, but that don't make me grieve

You gotta rock rock baby rock me
You gotta rock rock baby rock me

Now if you're looking to please, well that's all I need
But when you're giving me head, remember what I said

You gotta rock rock baby rock me
You gotta rock rock baby rock me
You gotta rock rock baby rock me, baby baby

Now if you give me your time, well then I'm feeling fine
But if you give me your love, there ain't no one above

You gotta rock rock baby rock me
You gotta rock rock baby rock me
You gotta rock rock baby roll me, oh

Yeah, now if you're looking to please, well that is all I need
But when you're giving me head, remember what I said

You gotta rock rock baby rock me, oh
Rock rock baby rock me, yeah
You gotta rock rock baby rock me, yeah yeah

Oh, oh no, mmmm, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, do it

3. UNIVERSE

Send my love on the telephone
No one answer - no one's home
Call after call
I just get nothing at all

Dirty Feelings they can't be right
Try again - for tomorrows night
No luck at all
Has got me walking the floor -
Walking the floor

[Chorus:]
Good love
Forsaken
Two hearts
On breakin'

Good love
Mistaken
Two hearts
One achin'

Send my love on the telephone
No one answer - no one's home
Call after call
I just get nothing at all

Dirty Feelings they can't be right
Try again - for tomorrows night
No luck at all
Has got me walking the floor -
Walking the floor
Refrain

[Chorus] (x3)


4. KINGDOM OF MADNESS

When the night is on the run
And your dreams are almost gone
Seas of fire snatch your soul
Beast of morning then unfold
In a whirlpool sadness creeps
Shadows walk with silent feet
Is there something in the air
Turns your hope into dispair
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me undone
Oh kingdom of madness you've really begun
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me on the run
When the night is on the run
And your dreams are almost gone
Seas of fire snatch your soul
Beast of morning then unfold
Take your hands away from me
Leave my eyes so I can see
It's not pleasure that you seek
You destroy the ones who are week
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me undone
Oh kingdom of madness you've really begun
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me on the run
The minstrel sings as he
Looks at me
But he doesn't make a sound
And a lovely time is had
By all
As the jester takes his crown
Everyone's laughing
Everyone's laughing
Everyone's laughing but me
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me undone
Oh kingdom of madness you've really begun
Oh kingdom of madness you've got me on the run


5. ALL THAT IS REAL

Did you ever give all of your heart and your soul for something
Then they're torn up into pieces one by one
Have you ever considerd or promised your faith undying
Has it ended in a moment for someone

'Cause all that is right
All that is real
All that is love, all that you feel
Does not always come true
Does not always come true

Though you learn by the things that you did and have gone before you
And you trust that you won't make the same mistake
By the time that you realize, anything you're only half through
It's the fool who wins, for you it's just too late

'Cause all that is right
All that is real
All that is love
All that you feel
Does not always come true
Does not always come true

Ask me for answers, none can be heard
Give me your promise, give me your word

All that is right
All that is real
All that is love
All that you feel
Does not always come true
Does not always come true
Does not always come true
Does not always come true
Oh yeah yeah
Does not always come true
Does not always come true


6. THE BRINGER

I feel that I'm on another planet
The hunter is on the prowl, he's got his eye on me
Silence I tread, because he's tracking me down
Awake in my bed and no sneaking around

I see culture disappear before me
The gathering of the few - who will be torn apart
Foolish the heart that will succumb, just to last
Broken the dream, when all this does come to pass

The jackal is king down here
Though he's the great pretender
The jackal will smile and leer
A message of bad news

He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer

A new change has been swept before
A new face for us all
Ooh, my questions shall be ignored
And too soon, will we fall?

I hear someone talk, that does confound me
On carrion he will feed, strip clean your warm desire
Dreadful the sight, to witness carnage, revealed
Hungry the jaws that once lay darkly concealed

The jackal is king down here
And though he's the great pretender
The jackal will smile and leer
A message of bad news

He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer
He is the bringer - he is the bringer

7. INVASION

You wouldn't believe your eyes
You wouldn't believe your ears
Out of the dawn skies
Suddenly it appeared
I wonder why they're here
Do they understand
Seems they will destroy someone's master plan
Looking across the sea
Looking across the land
Wondering what they'll find
Wondering what's at hand
Breathing in the air feel the falling rain
Getting all prepared for the final day
From out of the crimson air
Suddenly came the fire
Look at the flaming sky
See how the flames grow higher
Alien your day this not to be
All the people say let the world be free
You wouldn't believe your eyes
You wouldn't believe your ears
Into the dawning skies
Suddenly disappeared
Set their course for Mars
Leave the world behind
Tracking through the stars
Finds a different sign


8. LORDS OF CHAOS

Riders of the night are screaming hard upon my heels
Princely lords of chaos forging black and fiery wheels
And the mother of the earth is being widowed in my sight
Father of deception using wrong instead of right

And the moon overshadows the sun
And the masters of war carry on
While the fools and jokers make fun
Oh, see them run

Sister of illusion bend and follow in their mould
Brother of opinion just remember what you're told
That a weapon in a traitor's hand will harm you
twice as bad
Forests of indifference guaranteed to make you mad

And the moon overshadows the sun
And the masters of war carry on
While the fools and jokers make fun
Oh, see them run

They can't be playing
Turning me upside down (down)
They've got me praying
I'll end up in the ground (oh yeah)

When they've burnt up everything
And killed the air for me to breathe
Still they would be thinking there was more they could achieve
Then at last they would be beaten
For alone they all would stand
Looking at each other just as if it had been planned

And the moon disappears with the sun
And the masters are masters of none
While the fools and the jokers are gone
Now they're one
Oh how they run (oh)

They can't be playing
Turning me upside down (down)
They've got me praying
I'll end up in the ground

And the moon overshadows the sun
And the masters are masters of none
While the fools and the jokers are gone
Now they're one


9. ALL COMES TOGETHER

The morning slumbers not for me
The sun has gone letting me down
I wake in wonder I can see
The rain has come turning me round

Oh

The morning slumbers not for me
The sun has gone letting me down
I wake in wonder I can see
The rain has come turning me round

But it's alright now
Yes it's alright now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

The seven wonders of the world
Were broken and ready to fall
The king lay dying all alone
In sadness I'll always recall

But it's alright now
Yes it's alright now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

I had to feel good feeling good is all I need
You have to start with sad so good is what it means
And there's been lots of sad for me, for me

Oh

But it's alright now
Yes it's alright now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

I think I've tumbled now at last
I guess there ain't nothing to choose
A fallen angel follows me
It looks like there's no time to loose

But it's alright now
Yes it's alright now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now
