Les paroles

1. STATE OF DISCONNECTION

Separated from yourself you walk a lonely path
You feel something´s missing deep inside
Knowing that they´ll never let you see the other half
Reality´s beginning to subside

And your sky is grey
You wake up screaming
Yet another day
In this state of disconnection

Separated, segregated
Ends that´ll never meet
Beyond all hope of being saved
Conquered and divided
Incomplete
One step closer to your grave

What once was unity is now split up in two
All day long you´re walking in a trance
In your heart you know that there ain´t nothing you can do
The situation´s slipping through your hands

And your sky is grey
You wake up screaming
Yet another day
In this state of disconnection

Separated, segregated
Ends that´ll never meet
Beyond all hope of being saved
Conquered and divided
Incomplete
One step closer to your grave


2. THE BUBBLE

Perishability
You had to learn it the hard way
Yesterday you could not see
How easy colours fade to grey

Flying high
As if the ground did not exist
Never even wondered why
You were helplessly heading for the mist

So your bubble bursted
World reduced to dust
The image cracked

Now you´re telling me
You´re a victim of circumstance
How everything you touch
Turns to ashes in your hands
Hands
Hands

So your bubble bursted
World reduced to dust
The image cracked

Perishability
You sure learned it the hard way
Yesterday you could not see
There was another way

When you thought you had it made

Yeah your bubble bursted
World reduced to dust
The image cracked
The image cracked


3. THE TENSION GROWS

Mother
Take this burden off my shoulders
This heavy load

Mother
Won´t you free me from these chains around my neck
And save my soul

Can´t you see
How much my freedom means to me
The tension grows
The pressure owerflows

Mother
Can´t you see your son is choking
Won´t you hear my plea

Mother
Hear my every cell is screaming
For liberty

Can´t you see
The overload is killing me
The tension grows
The pressure overflows

Mother
Take this burden off my shoulders
This heavy load

Mother

Can´t you see
How much my freedom means to me
The tension grows
The pressure overflows


4. SORRY

I am just a simple man
I ain´t got no masterplan
I didn't make up the rules
I´m like all you other fools

I never claimed to be
Immaculate or pure
I´ll take the consequences of my actions
But not yours

Don´t ask me ´cause I don´t know
Life s a bitch to me too
I´m not some God who´ll tell you
What to think and what to do

Don´t even know
Who you are
But this time you pushed me
A little bit too far

Sorry - Hell no
I won´t plead guilty of something I didn't do
Sorry - Hell no

You made your choices
Upon yourself you bought this strife
Don´t you put the blame on me
For messing up your life

The path I walk
Is far from straight
But I´m no excuse
For your fucked up state

Sorry - Hell no
I won´t plead guilty of something I didn´t do
Sorry

Sorry - Hell no
I won´t plead guilty of something I didn´t do
Sorry - Hell no
You did it to yourself so tell me something new


5. HOUSE OF LOVE

I get so tired of all the little games we play
All the words when there is nothing more to say
All the waiting all the tears
All the anger all the fear

I've been trying way too hard for way too long
And I don´t even wanna find out who is wrong
So now we know we disagree
But you can´t force your tip on me

I think I´ll try to close my eyes for a while now
And hope for a sign from above
I don´t really think I wanna stand no trial now
In our little house of love

I would never try to hold you down
I´m not sure I even want you around
Decisions are so hard to make
Either way our hearts will break

I think I´ll try to close my mind for a while now
Now that push has come to shove
I don´t really think I wanna stand no trial now
In our little house of love


6. CONSTANT COMPANION

When walls came tumbling down
I was the one who stayed intact
The only one who could give you
All the strength you lacked
You lost some friends
Though you didn't catch their names
It don´t make no difference
lt´s the price you gotta pay

I´m the only person you feel comfortable around
I´m the only one who has never let you down
You wish you could be saying this ´bout someone else instead
But I´m the little man called hate
That lives inside your head

I´m your motivation
I´m your inspiration

I´m the only solid ground beneath your feet

The one who´s there to pick you up when you are beat
Your one true friend who will always hear you cry
And I´ll stay by your side ´til the day you die

I´m the only person you feel comfortable around
I´m the only one who has never let you down
You wish you could be saying this ´bout someone else instead
But I´m the little man called hate
That lives inside your head

I´m your motivation
I´m your inspiration

I´m your man
I´m all you want and all you need

I´m the everlasting energy
That´s running through your veins
The jealous God
Who forever rules your brain

Repeat 1st verse

I´m your motivation
I´m your inspiration


7. A WONDERFUL TIME

I can´t believe what I see
I can´t believe what my senses are telling me
My days are dragging by so slow
As I follow my own footprints in the snow

I can only hope
It´s not real

Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here
Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here

I can´t believe what I hear
I can´t turn off my ears and make it disappear
I´m moving on without control
I´m drifting in circles in the darkness of my soul

Created just to be destroyed
Out of the fire and into the void

Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here
Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here

Sitting ´round not knowing what to do
Lost without a clue
Disintegrated past
Going nowhere fast
Going nowhere

Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here
Having a wonderful time
Wish you were here


8. NON SERVIAM

I´ll never be the things you wanted
Got a mind of my own
If you don´t like what you see
Why don´t you leave me alone

I´m no longer willing or able
To fulfill your demands
Or play my part in your plan

The more I see the less I believe
In the things that you say
No longer will I be a piece
In some game you play

I don´t wanna see
Your truth ain´t real to me

I won´t be caught in the web of your lies
Won´t be trapped in your schemes
Ain´t gonna waste my time
Realizing someone else´s dream

I´m no longer willing or able
To fulfill your demands
Or play my part in your plan

I don´t wanna be
A puppet on your string
Ain´t gonna let you clip my wings

I don´t wanna see
Your truth ain´t real to me


9. A QUESTION OF TIME

Someone told me just the other day
You´re not around anymore
Well, any asshole could have guessed
That´s what destiny had in store, for you
So you kicked the bucket, well what a joke
No need to wonder why
And everybody´s saying to themselves
There was nothing I could do

We all knew
It was just a question of time
Patiently waiting
Just a question of time

The stories I heard sometimes made me laugh
Although somewhere I knew
Those things we used to joke about was slowly
Killing you

We all knew
It was just a question of time
Patiently waiting
Just a question of time


10. COMFORT OF ABSENCE

Sleep my child
My pretty one
Evil can´t touch you now
Sleep until the morning comes
And things have changed somehow

I won´t alarm you
By telling you things turned bad
I´ll just try to keep the wolves at bay
Oh, you´re so ugly when you´re sad
And dawn is still so far away

Dream on, Starchild
Dream on, pray that time will be kind
Dream on and pretend there´s nothing wrong

Sleep my child
My pretty one
Nothing´s gonna hurt you now
Sleep until the morning comes
And things have changed somehow

Dream on, Starchild
Dream on, pray that time will be kind
Dream on and pretend there´s nothing wrong
Dream on, put your faith in being blind
