(Instrumental)


2. HOUR OF JOY

Welcome to this joyfull hour
Now is the time to realize
An iron will shows you the mood we´re in tonight

This is where we gather
This is the great escape
Where it´s happening
So now let´s rock this stage!

I close my eyes
And listen carefully
Everthing is standing still

Accept for a shiver, this silent smile
Now let the speakers blow up your ears
Share your excitement
And we´ll set the feast, we will


3. INSIDE

The air I feel tonight is curious
I can let the whole world see
what is inside of me.
You catch my breath again
You read my words again
You hear my voice again
Do you know me, do you care?

If I had wings
My feathers would be like leaves
Colouring with the coming of every new season.

All these feelings and thoughts
They are together as one, but broken
For a moment.
That's when you get curious about me,
Is it?

The people I feel tonight are curious
I hope your pleased
to meet the woman inside of me...

They catch my breath again
They read my words again
They hear my voice again
Do you know me, do you care?


4. THIS UNREACHABLE MESS

Thinking has made a mess of me
But as it is my state of mind
Maybe this will help you see
To eat me with your sharpest teeth
And beat me with your honesty

Hear my cry... Screaming loud!
You took place inside

Oh! This is a mess
That hasn´t shown itself ever before to me
And I cannot bare to see the consequences
By not letting me know what it wants from me

Hear my cry... Screaming loud!
You took place inside

Is a piece from my mind
Is falling down...


5. THE UNKNOWN IS SEARCHING THE UNFOUND

Turning around
circles in outer space
That's were it all began...

We're reaching certain movements
We've never been so close before
Watching eachother passing by
While following, following, following

Moving too fast, once we'll get stuck
Moving in circles, just call it bad luck
try to keep out, this is the danger zone

It seems to be a frozen summer
We'll be melting down?
No don't worry, it won't hurt,
It'll take a while before
We'll cut ourselves back into the ground
Turning around in circles..I won't!

Oh we are turning around, turning around, turning around in circles...


6. KILL THE SILENCE

At this time,
You have stolen my happiness.
But maybe there's joy untold,
I might find it back some day.

'Cause there are feelings.
So much, too much

At this time,
I can hardly understand myself.
Why am I even listening?
Your shadows are too large.

When I'm feeling
So small, too small.

When my kindness falls apart,
Will I understand myself?
Or will all this fall apart in you
Fill you up with my anger, my hate
'Cause I hope it'll do, at this time.?

You darken my thoughts
So dark, so dark.

If these words could kill the silence between us
Then this one here is for you.


7. CIRCLE OF POWER

I cast around me
This circle of power
Inviting you with your charms
Now let this space around us
Be protected from all forces
That might come to do us harm...

Let's send out my wishes
Empower this circle
I ask of you
To take me along into serene ecstasy
Feel the energy passing through!

Blood is rushing
I feel you exist
Between my moves and thoughts
Your looks are mysteriously
Your words are fully decorated in that sense
So take me along

Let's send out my wishes
Empower this circle
I ask of you
Take me along into serene ecstasy
Feel the energy passing through!

I cast around me
This circle of power
Inviting you with your charms
Now let this space around us
Be protected from all forces
That might come to do us harm...


8. WHEN SHADOWS DANCE IN LIGHT

I can see our shadows, playing on the wall, becoming one.

I open my arms
I can feel you
Breathing into me

You're flooding me with warmth
When you open
your arms.

It's feeling brighter
Then fire
A fire that's burning
A fire that's moving

Like our shadows, playing on the wall, becoming one.

When you open your arms
You move me, you heal me,
Oh what a feeling.
This is something,
Leading to this sensation of warmth.

It's feeling brighter
Then fire.
A fire that's burning
A fire that's been longing

Move me, heal me.


9. CAPTURED BY THE COLOUR OF FAITH

Captured, here I am
Forcing the light to turn to me
But here´s nothing I can put to my will

Am I not strong enough to fight
Or is this struggle
I´m going through useless?
Leave nothing to chance, as it is already deceided
I´m captured by the colour of faith

Captured, here I am
Fighting these colours to turn to me
But here fighting seems useless

Am I not strong enough to fight
Or is this struggle
I´m going through useless?
Leave nothing to chance, as it is already deceided
I´m captured by the colour of faith

Captured, here I am
There is no use in forcing
There is no use in Fighting
There is no use in crying
There is no use in screaming
But it´s a relief as I´m still captured


10. PERCEPTION OF FEELINGS

Watching you
In this state of great tension
I eagerly expexted by my inner life
To become more and more
In a state of self possession
My temper

The present day, it shows me a winding road
Coming up right in front of me
And there is no escape!
It seems like I have tried to find what I´m need of!

This perception of my state of mind
Took away my irresolution
Finally I have chosen
To follow my own way
Yeah, follow my own way...


11. YOU'RE SETTING FIRE

Your intentions are cruel
Thoughts they whisper to me
Emotional scars
You handed them

You can't wipe off the blame
You're like an evil creature
You'll burn in hell like a flame
You're setting fire! Yeah, you are!

Your intentions are cruel
Thoughts they whisper to me
Emotional scars
You handed them, to them, to them to them, to them…

You can't wipe off the blame
You're like an evil creature
You'll burn in hell like a flame
You're setting fire!

Yeah you are!
Cause you are!
And you are!
Well you are!


12. STOP DRAWING

Our lives travelling gigantic
Over the landscape
Following the footsteps
That are left behind

We're drawing in the ground, the earth
Leaving our ways behind
Writing history again, over and over,
And over and over again...

Some thoughts flying around
From yesterday to an extreme
Leaving the footsteps
To follow another way

We're drowning in the ground, the earth
Leaving our ways behind
Writing history again, over and over,
And over and over again...

While breaking this world apart
Can see we're changing
Humanity's changing
Humanity's torn apart, I guess?


13. THE SHOW MUST GO ON (QUEEN COVER)

Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score..
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero - another mindless crime.
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime.
Hold the line!
Does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on!
The show must go on!
Inside my heart is breaking,
My make-up may be flaking,
But my smile, still, stays on!

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance.
Another heartache - another failed romance.
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm learning.
I must be warmer now..
I'll soon be turning round the corner now.
Outside the dawn is breaking,
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free!

The show must go on!
The show must go on! Yeah!
Ooh! Inside my heart is breaking!
My make-up may be flaking!
But my smile, still, stays on!
Yeah! oh oh oh

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,
Fairy tales of yesterday, will grow but never die,
I can fly, my friends!

The show must go on! Yeah!
The show must go on!
I'll face it with a grin!
I'm never giving in!
On with the show!

I'll top the bill!
I'll overkill!
I have to find the will to carry on!
On with the,
On with the show!

The show must go on.
