Dead Serious 02:09
Strange reflections in the glass An omen of mortality Misdirection time to pass onto the new reality Time will tell And this could be the start You as well We all must play our part Crave affection from the class A version of insanity Understanding that the past Erases sensuality Desperation situation Searching for some information Recollections turn to ash A moment of brutality Disconnection in a flash Divided personality Calculation, confirmation Waiting for the revelation How long it takes someone to drown Icy waters pulling me down To deep below the freezing lake I know one day that I will break Free

Drama 02:44
Ghostly faces at the windows Empty places where the wind blows Looking for the last connection Explanation, misdirection Fall to my knees Pray for my sins No guarantees The drama begins Too much thinking, mad obsessions Heavy drinking, wild confessions No regrets for no tomorrow The only pill there is to swallow Freezing weather, start to shiver Slip into the icy river The stones begin to pull me down A final spin before I drown Inside my mind Something has gone And then I find The drama goes on It could have been different for me I should have seen what it would be This is my fate though it seems strange Now its too late, nothing can change Caught in the waves Burned by the sun Ending my days The drama is done

Surprise 03:02
So So I live to fight another day To try and find another way Without giving in No No I've nothing left I want to say And no-one listens anyway Sometimes you won't win They say that on top of the world There's some days when the sun don't rise So if I wake and its still dark It wouldn't come as any great surprise Oh Oh I guess I just forgot to say That black and white is really gray Colours don't exist Go Go and dance beneath the shining moon I'll stay and watch my Brigadoon Vanish in the mist

Mon cœur est lourd Il tremble à n’en plus finir Je tourne autour Pour ne pas m’évanouir Les alentours Semblent être limbe ou enfer Et dans la courre La pluie fait place au tonnerre Sorti d’un rêve Vêtu de noir Je n’sais pas être Je suis ton pire cauchemar Comme un esprit D’un pas délicat J’erre sous ton lit Je suis ton pire cauchemar Réveille toi Prie mon départ Je reste là Je suis ton pire cauchemar Mon cœur s’emballe Une autre provocation Combat final Cerné de suffocations Ca dégénère Comme si tout était perdu Stop éphémère D’animation suspendue Je sens le froid Gagner ma peau jusqu’aux os E devant moi Le passeur m’attend sur l’eau Loin de croire à tant d’histoires La nuit recèle d’idées noires Hors de contrôle Je tiens ton âme Je joue mon rôle Je suis ton pire cauchemar Respire, essaye D’aider l’espoir Y’a rien à faire Je suis ton pire cauchemar Ne te bats pas D’un coup d’éclat Tu es à moi Je suis ton pire cauchemar Le vent se lève Il m’envahit de frissons J’entends derrière Des pas dans ma direction Un cri s’élève Avant la fin de mon rêve Une vie s’achève Il faut que je me réveille

Fairytale 03:06
There might be another version It will be a different story Will the hero win the glory Keep the morals in proportion Remember when the tale begins The girl is poor and mistreated Brave is her prince, undefeated The devil wants the gold she spins Sometimes the world is like a fairy tale And no-one likes the wicked witch For each success somebody has to fail For some the slipper never fits The tale unfolds the fruit is bit The prince will search throughout the land But evil has the upper hand It seems there's no way out of it Then comes the part we all expect The magic kiss, the words are said Except this time the girl is dead Impossible to resurrect Is this the last page of the book Sometimes you bite off more than you can chew So go on take another look Regrets are for the things you didn't do

Distance 03:33
Beyond the limits of our time Something waits in total silence Every murmur is a message Every hurt a counted blessing So when the planets are aligned Symbol of the deadly virus Yet another rite of passage Trying hard to limit damage Too much time too many sorrows There's no cause to apologise Here today and gone tomorrow It never could be otherwise Never finished compromising Take the path of least resistance Changing shapes on the horizon Disappear into the distance Below the surface of the marsh The creatures ooze in primal slime Living lives of pain and torment Waiting for their special moment The judgement will be very harsh And every convict serves his time So every man is on his own And hope is crushed like broken bone.
7.
Requiem 03:12
How shall I explain I have to leave this world behind me That I can't sustain The feelings that are deep inside me And should I expect The final words to be repugnant Paying my respects To anyone who stands in judgement Don't look back Time has come Here I am Requiem Surely you can see I did the best that I was able Nothing left of me What was so solid now unstable All I have is trust And what remains won't last forever Turning into dust And memories of forbidden pleasure Agnus dei qui tollis peccata mundi Misere nobis Agnus dei qui tollis peccata mundi Dona nobis pacem So understand the deal Life is just a story One turn of the wheel The power and the glory
8.
Tick Tock 02:34
Tick tock tick tock Time is passing Look at the clock Nothing happening Take stock unlock Always hoping Shell shock mind block Barely coping Tick tock knock knock Who's that crying Electric shock Someone dying Time So let it tick away And waste another day Watching everything decay Time So give it all away Another yesterday And we're meeting it halfway Tick tock big clock Execution Made up ads hoc No solution Hiphop hard rock Vocal violence Long boots short frock Sound of silence Tick tock tick tock Pick up your phone Space walk air lock Different time zone Time The end is far away A rule to disobey In a game you have to play Time No method to delay The final cabaret And it finishes today

Had a word with the man in charge This is what he said He is gonna protect my world Ruin yours instead So if you want to stay alive Side with no-one else Only the righteous will survive Chosen by myself Let it all rain down Bring it all to me So we all can see Let it all rain down on me Have a voice that's inside my head Tells me what to do Don't believe what the papers said All I say is true When you have all the winning cards God always provides So you don't need to think too hard Only I decide Let it all rain down on me.
10.
However 03:54
However it seems Its all been a dream Whatever was said Was all in my head There's nowhere left to hide There's nobody there Although I would swear Its starting to feel Just like it was real There's nothing left inside This is the power of sound You hear but its inside your head Reach out and turn it around So speak and the words will be said However it looks Its all just bad luck There isn't a man There isn't a plan There's nowhere left to go Its always the same There's no-one to blame There's nothing to lose And nothing to gain There's nothing more to know
11.
Radical 02:42
Come and look into my eyes The lights are on, but no-one's home It will come as no surprise Your friends are gone, you are alone I will see into your mind The noise will stop, the pain will cease Leave the mortal world behind For only war can bring us peace Radical Things must change, be re-arranged Radical Spiritual and physical Come and see what you can do A place awaits in paradise Just one thing you have to do So take a turn and throw the dice I can see what you can be And every dog will have its day You only need to follow me And you will blow us all away Radical Join the race or be replaced Radical Mystical and criminal
12.
No Escape 02:29
Running through the night time, the golden moonlight in my hair Have to face it sometime, probably there's something there Could it be that I don't see Shadows of my enemy Running faster this disaster How long will it take Overtaken so mistaken There is no escape Stumbling through the daytime, the silver blindfold on my face Guilty of a war crime, visions of the master race Could it be that I don't hear Echos of my inner fear Breathe deeply, breathe square Make like you couldn't care Another nightmare Make like there's nothing there Time is slowing somehow knowing Every move I make Hope receding broken bleeding There is no mistake There is no escape

Peut-être as-tu attendu un autographe Vu le film ou bien lu le livre D'un portrait, d'une photo, aucune trace Personne ne sais comment je suis Et je vois la terreur du noir Pas de reflet dans le miroir Temps de réflexion, temps pour errer seule Autre direction, être encore seule Fermer les volets, trouver un linceul Suivre l'air du vent, laissez moi seule Peut-être as-tu attendu un mot de moi Cherchant un lien sur un clavier L'intéraction, le dialogue n'existent pas Tu dois pouvoir l'imaginer Oh si tu savais les gens que j'aimerais être Et les endroits dans lesquels j'aimerais être Coincée dans un corps que je ne pourrai changer Fermée dans une prison d'où je n'peux m'échapper Sous mon linceul Comme un damné Laissez moi seule Seule et en paix

Unsure 03:14
Was there a time Was there a place You didn't have to worry at all Is there a crime You see a face You didn't have to hurry to call So easy so pleasing Thats how it seemed So simple so sinful Like in a dream Crying, calling, making no sound Rising, falling, down to the ground There was a certain way, there was a better day Didn't need to be more, didn't need to be sure When there was harmony, there was a light to see Didn't need any war, didn't need to explore Its not like before Now I am unsure Was there a line Was there a way You didn't need to cover your trace Was there a time Was there a day You didn't have to be in disgrace No saint but no sinner Regular men Now we are all in a Nightmare again No way to ignore Now we are unsure
