1. THE ANVIL

The anvil stands alone, the hammer’s come & go
Tired and useless worn away
Attack the golden rule, the genius & the fool
How can man destroy what man has not made

The liar and the law, one will soon be gone
The dead man’s ashes rest upon the stone
It’s more that just a chance or blind coicidence
The fire starts to burn but the paper remains

Oh, am I the sole believer

The liar and the law, one will soon be gone
The dead man’s ashes rest upon the stone
More that just a chance or blind coicidence
The fire starts to burn but the paper remains

Oh, am I the sole believer
Oh, am I the one to deceive her

The anvil
The anvil
The anvil
The anvil stands alone


2. IMAGES OF PRINCESS

You can hear the footsteps of the devil in your brain
But you just can’t put asunder the evil of your name
Can nothing be said to stop the quaking in your knees
For the images of prnices are not what your eyes have seen

Once in the darkness & the light never looks the same
The colors trapped in time have all become just shades of Gray
A clown without makeup is a sad man to behold
A sin within the logic is a story never told

Running with the laughter & screaming from the pain
Now’s your morning after
A lapse of time – and nothing’s the same

Nothing can prepare you – for what you’re about to find
The picture perfect world was just a picture in your mind
Can nothing be said to stop the quaking in your knees
For the images of princes are not wha tyour eyes have seen

Running with the laughter & screaming from the pain
Now’s your morning after
A lapse of time – and nothing’s the same

Images of princes..........never to be king
Images of princes..........never what they seem

Running with the laughter & screaming from the pain
Now’s your morning after
A lapse of time – and nothing’s the same

Images of princes..........never to be king
Images of princes..........never what they seem, no
Images of princes..........never to be king
Images of princes..........never what they seem, no


3. MR.PRIMETIME

All who enter cast your eyes upon the star
If you’ve been here, then you’ll know how free you are
Just leave everything to me
What you’ve done is not what I see
You’re free
All rise

Rise and greet him, he’s the master of the room
All in a days work: “don’t worry sone you’ll be home soon”

“Just leave everything to
What you’ve done is not what I seee
This next defense could be my best
My god, what will I think of next?”

Mr. Primetime – he’s the master of the room
Mr. Primetime – judge & jury play his fools

“Face the camera, shed a tear
Put on the performance of the year
Here’s where we get public support
You’re all we’ll see on the news report
Not missing pieces of the lie
Just cross your heart and hope to die!”

Rise & greet him – now the spectacle begins
Tears of lost loves – trial by TV he always wins

“Just leave everything to me
What you’ve done is not what I see”

Mr. Primetime – the exception to the rule
Mr. Primetime –judge & jury plays his fools

“Just leave everything to me
What you’ve done is not what I see”
One more conviction laid to rest
I am God, I am the best”

“I’m Mr. Primetime – I’m the master of the room”
“Mr. Primetime –judge & jury play my fools”
Mr. Primetime
Mr. Primetime
Mr. Primetime
“Mr. Prime – you’re all my fools”


4. LIES IN THE BALANCE

This time you fooled me, you played all the ticks
Now it’s no wonder why they called you slick
You saw what pissed me off & did that no more
A sign of the times, a political whore

I have been taken by words I was told
I bought a package that’s not what you sold

Lies become facts when you word them just right
Keeping your lover pushed way out of sight
Changing your hair for the crowd I was in
“Say whatever they want man, just as long as you win”

I have been taken by words I was told
I bought a package that’s not what you sold

“Hidden in places, they can’t see a trace of my lies”
”Keep all those faces away from my revealing eyes”
“Hidden in places, they can’t see a trace of my lies”
”Keep all those faces away from my revealing eyes”

“Hidden in places, they can’t see a trace of my lies”
”Keep all those faces away from my revealing eyes”
“Hidden in places, they can’t see a trace of my lies”
”Keep all those faces away from my revealing eyes”
“My word are lies”


5. REVOLVING DOOR

The catcher in the rye, the lover and the lie
Where will the justice be found
We look inside their minds, what kind of madness will we Find
Their victims are under the ground

We take away the danger of the capture with a system
That will guarantee a jury that’s hung
32 releases equal lawyers silver pieces as the families of
The innocent prepare another daughter or son

An alcoholics son is freedom with a gun
We can’t deny him his rights
Another hero dies, her dreams close with her eyes
But no one takes up her fight

We take away the danger of the capture with a system
That will guarantee a jury that’s hung
32 releases equal lawyers silver pieces as the families of
The innocent prepare another daughter or son

For the revolving door, we’re going round & round
Through the revolving door, back to the lost and found

We take away the danger of the capture with a system
That will guarantee a jury that’s hung
32 releases equal lawyers silver pieces as the families of
The innocent prepare another daughter or son

For the revolting door, we’re going round & round
Through the revolving door, back to the lost and found
For the revolving door, we’re going round & round
Through the revolving door, back to the lost and found


6. IN THE BEGINNING

In the beginning
When the heaven and earth are one
To be or not to be
What have we done

In the beginning when earth was but a wasteland
And the darkness covered all the eyes could see
In the beginning before the dark bowed to the light
And the mighty winds had swept across the sea

And the light cracked through the sky
And the birds began to fly
And the new formed earth
Was seen through man’s eyes

Then we heard the gods say to one mighty man
You shall take two of every one
For forty days and forty nights it rained upon the earth
And man and beast alike prayed for the sun

And the light cracked through the sky
And again the birds did fly
And the new formed earth
Was seen through man’s eyes

What did he see, tell me
What did the blind man see, tell me
What was he meant to be?
What was he meant to be?
Tell me please, what did the blind man see
What was he meant to be?

Now those days have been and gone and man has man alone
Will he survive or turn the earth to stone
Is it the earthquake or the bomb that seals our final fate
We can’t stop vulcanos fire but we can stop the hate

And the light cracked through the sky
And again the birds did fly
And the new formed earth
Was seen through man’s eyes
Man’s eyes


7. SOUL SURVIVOR

In a land no so far away
The prophecy soon will be told
In our own world it was yesterday
The prophecy is already old

In the streets of the city the fear will run wild
And the key to your lives will be held by a child

Be apraised of the mystery
Of the beast and the whore
Where the future meets history
And your world is no more

In the streets of the city the fear’s running wild
I’ve known of the outcome since I was a child

There’s no hesitation for those who recall
The climb is the steepest for those who will fall
Believe in yourself and in what you’ve been told
Emerge to a new world from the one that was old

You’ll be Soul Survivor
Soul Survivor
You’ll be Soul Survivor
Of a world not begun

Then a stone from a holy hand
Wil be cast in the sea
From a storm to the holy land
We are finally free

In the streeets of the city they call to the child
The cry of the meek is the call of the wild

There’s no hesitation for those who recall
The climb is the steepest for those who will fall
Believe in yourself and in what you’ve been told
Emerge to a new world from the one that was old

You’ll be Soul Survivor
Soul Survivor
You’ll be Soul Survivor
Of a world not begun
You’ll be Soul Survivor
Soul Survivor
You’ll be Soul Survivor
Of a world not begun
You alone survive


8. WHITE ROOM LIFE

Dreaming of dreaming in daylight
Laughing along with the moon at night
Sleep no longer means rest for me
Carefully listen carefully

Reaching out for a life line
Clutching on to everything mine
Faces vanishing into air
Nobody sees me, no one cares

I can’t get away from this
I live in a world of mental bliss
Reality’s picture fades from view
This white room nightmare coming true

Killers and clown all look the same
Catch me, cut me, scream my name
How do you know me, where did we meat
“How do you do, have aseat”

The enemy is about to attck
I’m sorry we’re closed, you’ll have to come back
All aboard the train’s leaving now
The final performance, I take my bow

I can’t get away from this
I pull the trigger & I miss
I don’t know why I even try
This white room life will never die

White room life
Sanity’s rules don’t apply to fools
White room days
Endlessly lost within the maze

Dreaming of dreaming in daylight
Laughing along with the moon at night
Sleep no longer means rest for me
Carefully listen carefully

Reaching out for a life line
Clutching on to everything mine
Faces vanishing into air
Nobody sees me, no one cares

I can’t get away from this
I live in a world of mental bliss
Realitys picture fades from view
This white rom nightmare is coming true

Hey – now I can’t get away
Hey – now I can’t get away
Hey – now I can’t get away


9. LAST CHANCE BELIEVER

So you think I’ve nothing better to do
Than spend my time watching over you
I’ve got a world’s worth who really care
But if one needs me, bet I’ll be there

Look for me in the falling rain
Here I am behind the wheel of pain
Reach higher till you touch the sky
You’ll never know me till the day you die

You call my name when you can feel the steel in you
I’m just a ghost until your pain is real you fool
You’ve gone astray, I’ve lead you back again
No one gives the wheel of life another spin

The same reaction since the dawn of time
But when it’s good I am so hard to find
Two sets of footprints in the dreamer’s sand
One from man’s image, one from man

Look for me in the falling rain
Here I am behind the wheel of pain
Reach higher till you touch the sky
You’ll never know me till the day you die

You ran to me cause there was nowhere left to hide
Step right up & get your ticket for the ride
Once around this world & back again
So come and give the wheel of life another spin

Last chance believer
Last chance

Look for me in the falling rain
Here I am behind the wheel of pain
Reach higher till you touch the sky
You’ll never know me till the day you die

You call my name when you can feel the steel in you
I’m just a ghost until your pain is real you fool
You’ve gone astray, I’ve lead you back again
No one gives the wheel of life another spin

Last chance believer
Last chance believer
Last chance believer
Last chance
Last chance
Last chance believer


10. ASHES TO ASHES

The rain wash away the years of erosion
But it can’t wash away a moment of pain
The sun bakes the sand all across the desert
But it can’t warm the heart of a broken man

You pay the piper & a song he’ll play
But do you know who the piper pays

The trumpet sounds a call to war
The day is dawning reality is crushed
Don’t you lose sight of what your fighting for
Ashes to ashes & dust to dust
Dust to dust

The autumn calls the living to die in the winter
But it can’t call the mark of your soul to due
The night steals the day, farewell to the rainbow
But it can’t take the last breath of life from you

You pay the piper & a song he’ll play
But do you know who the piper pays

The trumpet sounds a call to war
The day is dawning reality is crushed
Don’t you lose sight of what your fighting for
Ashes to ashes & dust to dust

The autumn calls the living to die in the winter
But it can’t call the mark of your soul to due
The night steals the day, farewell to the rainbow
But it can not take the last breath of life from you

As we commity this body to the earth
To become as it once was
For from dust we came
And to dust we shall return
To dust we shall return
To dust we shall return
To dust we shall return
To dust we shall return

The autumn calls the living to die in the winter
But it can’t call the mark of your soul to due
The night steals the day, farewell to the rainbow
But it can’t take the last breath of life from you

The trumpet sounds a call to war
The day is dawning reality is crushed
Don’t you lose sight of what your fighting for
Ashes to ashes & dust to dust

The trumpet sounds a call to war
The day is dawning reality is crushed
Don’t you lose sight of what your fighting for
Ashes to ashes & dust to dust

Farewell to the rainbow
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
