Is there some other way out of here?
Somewhere I could find myself? Cant sleep enough, cant stay high. All the promises . . . just another lie. Ive always been afraid except . . . in the moments that I loved you. The only time I felt strong was when you stood next to me. I could make a stand if . . . I could hold your hand again . . . The road Ive traveled is the hard way down, always playing another mans fool. They offered a way inside with the promise of forgiveness. Its a lie. Could you forgive what Ive done? We had it all, but couldnt see anything. The blind leading the blind through the darkest night. When you said you loved me it made me feel alive. When you said you loved me it made me feel . . . like I could fly. Ive always lived afraid except . . . in the moments that I loved you. The only time I felt strong was when you stood next to me. I could make a stand if . . . I could hold your hand again. We had it all, but couldnt see anything. The blind leading the blind through the darkest of nights. When you said you loved me it made me feel alive. When you said you loved me it made me feel . . . like I could fly. Ive always been afraid except in the moments that I loved you. ( nobody knows this is the end of the story or is it a open end ) |

Where are you now?
Feeling small. Cant live without it? You call this your best? I made my life a mess. And everyone but you sees it. What a fool. What are you gonna do, make more excuses? Why dont you tie it off? Hang myself? End your pathetic little life! What is your life worth now? Is this what you pictured for yourself? Do you understand anything? Youre not there yet. Youre not anywhere yet. Am I closer? Go back to your mountain. |

All alone now
Except for the memories Of what we had and what we knew Everytime I try to leave it behind me I see something that reminds me of you Every night the dreams return to haunt me Your rosary wrapped around your throat I lie awake and sweat afraid to fall asleep I see your face looking back at me looking back at me And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare Is this all that's left Of my life before me Straight jacket memories sedative highs No happy ending like they've always promised There's got to be something left for me And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare Lies behind my stare How many times must I live this tragedy How many more lies will they tell me All I want is the same as everyone Why am I here and for how long And I raise my head and stare Into the eyes of a stranger I've always known that the mirror never lies People always turn away From the eyes of a stranger Afraid to know what lies behind the stare |

I feel like Im rising,
as everything falls away. I feel old like the cold wind blowing outside today. Got my finger on the trigger and no one cares. When they find me face down in the river will they just leave me there? Hang on, dont let go! Just hang on! Dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve built a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride! Last chance @ suicide. Will anyone remember? Will they learn from my mistakes? Sometimes it takes a lifetime of pain to change. Im closing on the edge here and youve heard it all before . . . but what good did any of my life bring? What was it really for? Hang on dont let go! Just hang on and dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve lived a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride! Last chance @ suicide. Take me to the top of the sky . . . and let me look down . . . the long mile down. When will the darkness end? Hang on, dont let go! Just hang on and dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve lived a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride! Last chance @ suicide. |

Culture hostage.
Im writhing in the cold grasp of justice, as she turns away. Blind is she supposed to be but, someone took a razor to her mask. Rusted now the scales you hold, the balance tipped by the weight of gold. When will it end? When will it ever end? The judgment man holds my fate, as I beg forgiveness with the plastic smile of a candidate. They take for granted that Im out of my mind and theyre wasting their time to care. So all my reasons are damned before theyre heard. Im held hostage by their words. What will lead us to tolerance if we dont question our prejudice? Courage is such a lonely word, patience, in time these truths will be known. Please, dont keep looking away. You see fortunes are on line, reputations at risk, and theres fear in the hearts of all of you that believe that youre right, and thats your right. But are you . . . right? The judgment man holds my fate, as I gaze around the room, their eyes are like knives, could decapitate. They take for granted that Im out of my mind and Im wasting their time, dont show, dont show me my fate. Reasons are damned, cant understand. If I fall to pieces theyll know . . . hes out of his mind and hes wasting our time, we know. As I sense my fate . . . His reasons be damned, cant understand him. . . . and now all my reasons are damned before theyre heard. Im held hostage by their words. Im a hostage. |

I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye Searching high and low The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime Handcuffed and blind, i didn't do it She said she loved me I guess i never knew But do we ever, ever really know? She said she'd meet me on the other side But i knew right then, i'd never find her I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No more nightmares, i've seen them all From the day i was born, they've haunted my every move Every open hand's there to push and shove No time for love it doesn't matter She made a difference I guess she had a way Of making every night seem bright as day Now i walk in shadows, never see the light She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in lovev i need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel No chance for contact There's no raison d'etre My only hope is one day i'll forget The pain of knowing what can never be With or without love it's all the same to me I don't believe in love I never have, i never will I don't believe in love I'll just pretend she never was real I don't believe in love I need to forget her face, i see it still I don't believe in love It's never worth the pain that you feel |

I gotta have it,
gotta drink the high life. Ill buy a new suit, black skinny necktie. Ill mingle with elite and imitate and theyll never even get it til I hit em. Ive got no fear cause Ive weathered the breakdown, San Quentin to the edge of the Big Town. Im a man of the people, in the home of the brave, and Im no mans slave. Because Im free, I deserve everything I can get. Im American. Im American. If you voted for the man youre wasting time. Hes got his fingers dipped in everyones pie. The news cant wait to promote all the bullshit this government is selling. Ive got this plan in motion, countdown. Assassinate, terminate, smack down. Theres a war in my head and it needs to be said. If they think they can take me theyre dead. Because Im free, I deserve everything I can get. And Ill get everything I can get. Im American. Im American. What do you believe in? What are you living for? Do you want what theyre selling you, another television war? I cant stop! I feel I gotta have more! Thats right, more! I want more! More! Because Im free, I deserve everything I can get. Im American. Im American. Because Im free, And Ill get everything I can get. Im American. Im American. Are you free?

She said, Baby, where you been?
Whyd you have to leave me? Im on the other side . . . just looking in. Ive been so high; I climbed to the mountaintop, looked at myself and . . . Id tell you anything you want to hear. And Id desert you when Im through. Id say anything because true love dont mean a thing to a man, whos not a man, but a fool. Look at me! Youre a model of efficiency. Im always doing what he tells me. How can you change it now? Im always looking for it down deep inside, I thought that this would change my life. Have you found out? I remember more . . . Can you change? I can change. For years he must have cried a river of tears. In his dreams he saw himself . . . a dying man drawing figures, arrows in the sand. Mmm, I dont think he understands. Never thought that it would last forever. One glance back . . . theres nothing much to say. He watched as it all began spinning further and further from the truth. And nothing really matters, when your heart doesnt lead the way. |

Every time I leave You say you won't be there. And you're always there. Every time I cry your name at night, you pull close and say it's alright. I look in your eyes, just like the rain. Washing me, rain wash over me. Touching your face, I feel the heat of your heartbeat echo in my head like a scream. What you do to me! Waited so long I can't wait another day without you. Jet City Woman. It's a long way, home to my Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere, can't get her out of my mind. Whenever I'm alone I'm thinking, there's a part missing from my life. Wonder where I'd be without your love holding me together now I'm watching the time tick, tick away. Face grows longer every day. Fortunes are lost on the women I've seen but without you I can't breathe! You're the air to me! Waited so long, I'm all alone thinking about you. Jet City Woman. Got to find my way home to her. Jet City Woman. I see her face everywhere I look! Jet City Woman. Just a thousand miles and I'll be there Jet City Woman, to make the clouds go away. Time for some blue sky! Waited so long now the plane's delayed and hour, reminds me of all our days apart. Hold on, just a little longer. Jet City Woman. Wonder where I'd be, you're the air to me. Jet City Woman. Eyes like the rain, rain down on me. Jet City Woman. No more nights alone I'm almost home now. Jet City Woman. Close my eyes, I'm there in my Jet City. |

back where I started from theres not a thing . . . but you. When they took you, when they took you from me and left you bleeding on that concrete floor. One mans obsession is another mans trash, and Mary was more than a whore. And every day I breathe I remember more. Ive become something you wouldnt believe! Ive got this number burned in my brain, a walking nightmare, only slightly insane. They tried to take my fight, almost took my life. They took my truth from me. But when they left me, they didnt know me, cause Im like a lion thats about to roar. Mistakes you make, you take to your grave. And now Im gonna even the score. And every day I live I remember more. I aint got nothing to sell, but its time to pay attention, Im back with one foot in hell. Im back. Theres nothing left but memories here of something that I didnt begin with. You wanted to believe in something until the end. Yeah Im like a ghost back from the dead. I need revenge. Gonna have his head. Im gonna finish this and X marks the spot. Im gonna find him give him all that I got. And every day I breathe I remember more. I aint coming at you with something to sell, but you better believe, Im back with one foot in hell. Im back. |

Last time, missed my chance but never again.
The further away you slip, the more Ill dig in. All things come around again and this time Ill be ready and waiting. You cant imagine dedication that I now possess. Theres no one left to save you. Where you run I will follow. Ill step by step re-arrange you. Theres nowhere to hide. Youll never see me coming but youll feel the fear from my shadow. With intensity, yeah, youll bleed. Before its over youll age ten years older. Time flows like a river . . . deep. Im going to take you down. Theres no one left to save you. Where you run I will follow. Ill step by step re-arrange you. Theres nowhere to hide. They say let the world change you and you can change the world. Theyll bit by bit re-arrange you. I cant change the world. Its taken me years to get to this place. I found you hiding inside a persona you built from my pain. Fortune has finally come and vengeance is mine Ive won. Ill take the world now by storm. Do I let the world change me? Do I lead or follow? Theyll step by step re-arrange me. Let them all try! If I let the world change me, step by step re-arrange me. If I focus on tomorrow, maybe I could change the world! |

You think youre smart, inventive
because youve figured out my game? Pride is a handy substitute, when youve got only yourself to blame. All my dreams Ive realized while you . . . were indisposed. While youve spent eighteen years watching TV, Ive watched my fortune grow. Here I amIm finally on the outside and Youre nowhere near where Ive been! Ive got you where I want you . . . at last. Youve got no idea who I am! We circle around each other waiting for reaction We circle around each other waiting for reaction wanting satisfaction for the past. I want nothing . . . from the past. Always been so easy youre like a puppet on my string, throwing down hollow threats, unsure of what to think. Why should I care? You wouldnt dare! Youre nothing but worthless . . . I swear. From where I stand Ive got you where I want you. Youll never take me! Never take me down! Ive seen all I need to put you in the ground Revenge is normal, a typical reaction Ive seen your cynical reaction . . . if youre standing outside of in. always on the outside of in. Here we are at last facing oblivion . . . And this is where finally it ends. You dont belong here. holding fast to each of our sins. With hope by my side, Ill survive to see the dawn. Believe me or not . . . you owe me. I owe you nothing! I gave your life a purpose! I owe you nothing but your death! Without me you would have learned nothing! |

When I'm lost...I find a way.
I hear voices. Feel them surround me, pull me from the edge. I close my eyes and.... And my luck keeps holding strong, even when that boot comes down. Waiting for the revolution but there's no one around except the ...hands out of nowhere, saving me again There's always something there watching out for me, if I'm suffocating, it gives me air. Finally now I remember, but where I'm going now, I'm not sure. Only one thing matters much to me anymore. I'm looking for you. Can you imagine? You can't think. You won't find a way this time to frighten me. You're running scared now, always looking over your shoulder for a place where you don't see my face. When my luck keeps holding so strong, even with the state I'm in. I'm like a revolution of one, even when I stumble I win. Because there's hands out of nowhere, saving me again. There's always something there, watching out for me. When I'm suffocating, it gives me air. I'm like a cat with only a few lives left, running from the shadows. Watching my back waiting for the attack that I know is coming...I feel it's near. |

In the wooden chair beside my window I wear a face born in the falling rain I talk to shadows from a lonely candle Recite the phrases from the wall I can't explain this holy pain Six days ago my life had taken a tumble The orders came from high above they say A need to use me once again, they've got my number Further the cause, boy, yes, you know the game I'll wait here for days longer 'Til the sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow She brings the only friend that helps me find my way I search the past back to a time when I was younger A target for the new society Picked to displace the leaders Countering objectives of this new underground reality Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady that can ease my sorrow My love for her will help me find my way (They'll say) My mission saved the world I stood proud My mission changed the world It turned my life around I look around, my room is filled with candles Each one a story but they end the same I'll hide away in here the law will never find me The walls will tell the story of my pain Waiting for days longer 'Til sister comes to wash my sins away She is the lady who can ease my sorrow She sets the pace for my delivery of pain (They'll say) My mission saved the world And I stood proud My mission changed the world The underground (They'll say) Will rise and save this world We'll all stand proud Our mission changed the world, we'll change the world We'll all stand proud |

I've had enough and I want out!
"You can't walk away now." I looked back once And all I saw was his face Smiling, the needle crying Walking out of his room With mirrors, afraid I heard him scream You'll never get away Cold and shaking I crawled down alleys to try And scrape away the tracks that marked me Slammed my face into walls of concrete I stared, amazed at the words written on the wall Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name Wet and raving The needle keeps calling me back To bloody my hands forever Carved my cure with the blade That left me in scars Now every time I'm weak Words scream from my arm Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle, it lies Don't ever trust Don't ever trust the needle when it cries Cries your name |

Cries from the aisles
the tolling of the judgement bell Eyes watched the violence the absence of those who have seen, marks the faith of the spell Cold is the viper stalking the night for the heat It must find Time is the promise delivered with stunning consistency line after line, time after time the innocent victim awaits... Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Voices are calling me back Back to the day Footsteps had followed Me faster... listen Screams from a new love the passion was burning, it singed in a stare Free under the night sun The fear of the hunger will always be there in my mind Time after time the morning will close a new page Please take my hand Don't be afraid I am your master You are my slave Follow the impulse you have I'll show you the way Forget what you've learned in the past now Listen and... |

What? You say you're through with me
I'm not through with you We've had what others might call love You say it's over now, What's done, what's through? You can't stay away, you need me I need you When the fire starts the pain's too much For your mind You need attention, what's good is only mine I can cure the hunger that burns in your heart Just come to me I'll take you home We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows You say you don't feel safe alone tonight Cause you feel the pressure building in your head Our secret's safe for one more night But when the morning comes remember I'll be with you We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows One day you'll be with me If only you believe - 간 주 중 - We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows By day we'll live in a dream We'll walk in the shadows We'll walk in the shadows We'll walk in the shadows We'll walk in the shadows We'll walk in the shadows We'll walk in the shadows |

Is there some other way out of here?
Somewhere I could find myself? Cant sleep enough, cant stay high. All the promises . . . just another lie. Ive always been afraid except . . . in the moments that I loved you. The only time I felt strong was when you stood next to me. I could make a stand if . . . I could hold your hand again . . . The road Ive traveled is the hard way down, always playing another mans fool. They offered a way inside with the promise of forgiveness. Its a lie. Could you forgive what Ive done? We had it all, but couldnt see anything. The blind leading the blind through the darkest night. When you said you loved me it made me feel alive. When you said you loved me it made me feel . . . like I could fly. Ive always lived afraid except . . . in the moments that I loved you. The only time I felt strong was when you stood next to me. I could make a stand if . . . I could hold your hand again. We had it all, but couldnt see anything. The blind leading the blind through the darkest of nights. When you said you loved me it made me feel alive. When you said you loved me it made me feel . . . like I could fly. Ive always been afraid except in the moments that I loved you. ( nobody knows this is the end of the story or is it a open end ) |

Where are you now?
Feeling small. Cant live without it? You call this your best? I made my life a mess. And everyone but you sees it. What a fool. What are you gonna do, make more excuses? Why dont you tie it off? Hang myself? End your pathetic little life! What is your life worth now? Is this what you pictured for yourself? Do you understand anything? Youre not there yet. Youre not anywhere yet. Am I closer? Go back to your mountain. |

I feel like Im rising,
as everything falls away. I feel old like the cold wind blowing outside today. Got my finger on the trigger and no one cares. When they find me face down in the river will they just leave me there? Hang on, dont let go! Just hang on! Dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve built a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride! Last chance @ suicide. Will anyone remember? Will they learn from my mistakes? Sometimes it takes a lifetime of pain to change. Im closing on the edge here and youve heard it all before . . . but what good did any of my life bring? What was it really for? Hang on dont let go! Just hang on and dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve lived a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride! Last chance @ suicide. Take me to the top of the sky . . . and let me look down . . . the long mile down. When will the darkness end? Hang on, dont let go! Just hang on and dont let go! Come on, come on gotta take a ride, Fear City slide. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on leave your head outside, youve lived a lie. Last chance @ suicide. Come on, come on lets take a ride!

Culture hostage.
Im writhing in the cold grasp of justice, as she turns away. Blind is she supposed to be but, someone took a razor to her mask. Rusted now the scales you hold, the balance tipped by the weight of gold. When will it end? When will it ever end? The judgment man holds my fate, as I beg forgiveness with the plastic smile of a candidate. They take for granted that Im out of my mind and theyre wasting their time to care. So all my reasons are damned before theyre heard. Im held hostage by their words. What will lead us to tolerance if we dont question our prejudice? Courage is such a lonely word, patience, in time these truths will be known. Please, dont keep looking away. You see fortunes are on line, reputations at risk, and theres fear in the hearts of all of you that believe that youre right, and thats your right. But are you . . . right? The judgment man holds my fate, as I gaze around the room, their eyes are like knives, could decapitate. They take for granted that Im out of my mind and Im wasting their time, dont show, dont show me my fate. Reasons are damned, cant understand. If I fall to pieces theyll know . . . hes out of his mind and hes wasting our time, we know. As I sense my fate . . . His reasons be damned, cant understand him. . . . and now all my reasons are damned before theyre heard. Im held hostage by their words. Im a hostage. |

I gotta have it,
gotta drink the high life. Ill buy a new suit, black skinny necktie. Ill mingle with elite and imitate and theyll never even get it til I hit em. Ive got no fear cause Ive weathered the breakdown, San Quentin to the edge of the Big Town. Im a man of the people, in the home of the brave, and Im no mans slave. Because Im free, I deserve everything I can get. Im American. Im American. If you voted for the man youre wasting time. Hes got his fingers dipped in everyones pie. The news cant wait to promote all the bullshit this government is selling. Ive got this plan in motion, countdown. Assassinate, terminate, smack down. Theres a war in my head and it needs to be said. If they think they can take me theyre dead. Because Im free, I deserve everything I can get. And Ill get everything I can get. Im American. Im American. What do you believe in? What are you living for? Do you want what theyre selling you, another television war? I cant stop! I feel I gotta have more! Thats right, more! I want more! More!

She said, Baby, where you been?
Whyd you have to leave me? Im on the other side . . . just looking in. Ive been so high; I climbed to the mountaintop, looked at myself and . . . Id tell you anything you want to hear. And Id desert you when Im through. Id say anything because true love dont mean a thing to a man, whos not a man, but a fool. Look at me! Youre a model of efficiency. Im always doing what he tells me. How can you change it now? Im always looking for it down deep inside, I thought that this would change my life. Have you found out? I remember more . . . Can you change? I can change. For years he must have cried a river of tears. In his dreams he saw himself . . . a dying man drawing figures, arrows in the sand. Mmm, I dont think he understands. Never thought that it would last forever. One glance back . . . theres nothing much to say. He watched as it all began spinning further and further from the truth. And nothing really matters, when your heart doesnt lead the way. |

Back streets . . . oh hell,
back where I started from theres not a thing . . . but you. When they took you, when they took you from me and left you bleeding on that concrete floor. One mans obsession is another mans trash, and Mary was more than a whore. And every day I breathe I remember more. Ive become something you wouldnt believe! Ive got this number burned in my brain, a walking nightmare, only slightly insane. They tried to take my fight, almost took my life. They took my truth from me. But when they left me, they didnt know me, cause Im like a lion thats about to roar. Mistakes you make, you take to your grave. And now Im gonna even the score. And every day I live I remember more. I aint got nothing to sell, but its time to pay attention, Im back with one foot in hell. Im back. Theres nothing left but memories here of something that I didnt begin with. You wanted to believe in something until the end. Yeah Im like a ghost back from the dead. I need revenge. Gonna have his head. Im gonna finish this and X marks the spot. Im gonna find him give him all that I got. And every day I breathe I remember more. I aint coming at you with something to sell, but you better believe, Im back with one foot in hell. Im back. |

Last time, missed my chance but never again.
The further away you slip, the more Ill dig in. All things come around again and this time Ill be ready and waiting. You cant imagine dedication that I now possess. Theres no one left to save you. Where you run I will follow. Ill step by step re-arrange you. Theres nowhere to hide. Youll never see me coming but youll feel the fear from my shadow. With intensity, yeah, youll bleed. Before its over youll age ten years older. Time flows like a river . . . deep. Im going to take you down. Theres no one left to save you. Where you run I will follow. Ill step by step re-arrange you. Theres nowhere to hide. They say let the world change you and you can change the world. Theyll bit by bit re-arrange you. I cant change the world. Its taken me years to get to this place. I found you hiding inside a persona you built from my pain. Fortune has finally come and vengeance is mine Ive won. Ill take the world now by storm. Do I let the world change me? Do I lead or follow? Theyll step by step re-arrange me. Let them all try! If I let the world change me, step by step re-arrange me. If I focus on tomorrow, maybe I could change the world! |

You think youre smart, inventive
because youve figured out my game? Pride is a handy substitute, when youve got only yourself to blame. All my dreams Ive realized while you . . . were indisposed. While youve spent eighteen years watching TV, Ive watched my fortune grow. Here I amIm finally on the outside and Youre nowhere near where Ive been! Ive got you where I want you . . . at last. Youve got no idea who I am! We circle around each other waiting for reaction We circle around each other waiting for reaction wanting satisfaction for the past. I want nothing . . . from the past. Always been so easy youre like a puppet on my string, throwing down hollow threats, unsure of what to think. Why should I care? You wouldnt dare! Youre nothing but worthless . . . I swear. From where I stand Ive got you where I want you. Youll never take me! Never take me down! Ive seen all I need to put you in the ground Revenge is normal, a typical reaction Ive seen your cynical reaction . . . if youre standing outside of in. always on the outside of in. Here we are at last facing oblivion . . . And this is where finally it ends. You dont belong here. holding fast to each of our sins. With hope by my side, Ill survive to see the dawn. Believe me or not . . . you owe me. I owe you nothing! I gave your life a purpose! I owe you nothing but your death! Without me you would have learned nothing! |

When I'm lost...I find a way.
I hear voices. Feel them surround me, pull me from the edge. I close my eyes and.... And my luck keeps holding strong, even when that boot comes down. Waiting for the revolution but there's no one around except the ...hands out of nowhere, saving me again There's always something there watching out for me, if I'm suffocating, it gives me air. Finally now I remember, but where I'm going now, I'm not sure. Only one thing matters much to me anymore. I'm looking for you. Can you imagine? You can't think. You won't find a way this time to frighten me. You're running scared now, always looking over your shoulder for a place where you don't see my face. When my luck keeps holding so strong, even with the state I'm in. I'm like a revolution of one, even when I stumble I win. Because there's hands out of nowhere, saving me again. There's always something there, watching out for me. When I'm suffocating, it gives me air. I'm like a cat with only a few lives left, running from the shadows. Watching my back waiting for the attack that I know is coming...I feel it's near. |

[Jeff Carrell // Electric Guitar & Backing Vocals] [Howard Chillcott // Fender Rhodes] [Evan Schiller // Acoustic Drums & Percussion] [Chris Fox // Electric Bass] [Scott Moughton // Electric Guitar] I should have had you, I should have had you over last night. We could have talked about the things that mattered to you. I should have seen this. I should have seen the color of your eyes but I was somewhere else or I was looking though you. Are you feeling helpless? Are you feeling selfish? Or are you feeling anything at all? Are you seeing something? Am I close to nothing? Will I ever be the one you want to call? Now I'm going down. I'm drowning, I'm drowning. Now you're over me. And there's nothing I can say to bring you down. Now you're over me, now you're over my head. And you're never coming back to me are you? I should have had you, I should have had you over last night. We could have talked about the things that mattered to you. I should have seen this. I should have seen this coming... this coming. Now I'm going down. I'm drowning, I'm drowning. Now you're over me. And there's nothing I can say to bring you down again. Now you're over me. You're somewhere over my over my head. Over my head. Now you're over me. Now you're over my head. And you're never coming back to me are you? Now you're over... Now you're over... Now you're over me. |

[Geoff Tate // Lead & Backing Vocals]
[Jeff Carrell // Electric Guitar & Backing Vocals] [Howard Chillcott // Synths & Steinway Piano] [Evan Schiller // Acoustic Drums, Loops, Backing Vocals] [Chris Fox // Electric Bass] Her heart is like a fortress. She clings to her silence like a lover. She wishes you were cold and heartless so she wouldn't... wouldn't have to... feel. Oh and when she lifts her head, and your eyes meet, she walks to your effortless, with suffocating grace. And you're caught up in the moment and someone speaks, and whisks it all away. But this moment never ends, it goes on and on inside my head. And this moment never ends. This moment never ends. I've loved her forever, and in my dreams, when the evening meets morning, we're riding bareback moonbeams. She belongs to different spaces. She belongs to different times. And this moment never ends, it goes on and on inside my head. And this moment never ends, this moment never ends. At these moments it was clear, it's taken all my life... to get here. Se waits for me at the door way while I draw her pictures of my perfect world ... And this moment never ends It goes on and on inside my head. And this moment never ends, this moment never ends. |

(Geoff Tate // Lead & Backing Vocals)
(Jeff Carrell // Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar & Backing Vocals) (Howard Chillcott // Synth, Bass & Keyboards) (Evan Schiller // Acoustic Drums & Loops) There is a simple purpose to my life. And there is a meaning that will complete me in time. There is a mountain of opinion, telling me that my time could be better spent. There are complicated circumstances. They say you belong to a better man. Baby you're mine. Yeah you're mine, you just don't know it yet. Now when I'm right beside you do you ever see... Do you see me? And when I'm so deep inside you will you know, ever know me? And when I move in you? And I do all of those things that you want me to? You're my world, I'm your satellite, always free floating outside of your gravity. When my finger tips touch your skin, you will know. When I whisper your secret sins you will know. When my finger tips touch your skin, you will know. When I whisper when I whisper your... I whisper your name. When my finger tips touch your skin, you will know. When I whisper your secret sins... Baby you're mine. All mine. |

You and I long to live like wind upon the water
If we close our eyes we'll maybe realize There's more to life than what we have known And I can't believe I've spent so long Living lies I knew were wrong inside I've just begun to see the light Long ago t |

A child alone in daddy's room
The gun was hidden here No one home to catch me when I fall A young man now in a private chair I've seen the world through a bitter stare But my dream is still alive I'm going to be the best I can I want to be a busy man I w |

They told me to run, but just how far?
Can I go wearing the black mask of fear? The hate in my eyes always gives me away The tension building slowly Now I lost everything I had in you Nothing we shared means a thing Without you close to me I can't live wi |

You've got a cardboard house.
Live there all the time. Keep your memories tied with string The face that many once-adored, twenty years gone maybe more. Somewhere you lost your dream. Mama watched your every move, but now you're all alone. She's been gone for awhile. Daddy left some time ago, fading years pass too slow. He's the only one, could make you smile. --oh, you're still crying-- Big city bound. Gonna make your mark. Read your name in the lights. All the ads and people say, beauty lets you get your way. Tried your best to prove them right. But living on the streets ain't bad, sad people make you glad. Pardon me, could you spare some change? --oh, you're still crying-- Street corner girl. Watch the crowd go by, fill your tin can with life. Summer days tend to slip away like your men you couldn't make them stay. Hard to choose, whiskey or a wife. Sometimes you wonder where's the end. Where you goin' where you been? Happiness seems so hard to win. Most never care to find, Della Brown sees it all the time. Looking for that man to make her smile again |

Desert Dance - Queensryche
Lying here awake again. Minutes before dawn I hear your breathing, your heart beat like a song. Lately I’ve been feeling a little less then good but seeing things for the first time like I never could. I’ve had my head down against the door, trying to get to something I couldn’t find before. That special something, that feeds my soul, is a rhythm to live by, it’s a rhythm of hope. Something drives us onwards. Something gives us strength. What makes our judgment falter is the questions we think. Who am I to fly so high? What gives me the right to dream of what could be, keep reaching for the light? I’ve been standing in front of that door, basing my happiness on what’ I knew before. Searching for something that moves my soul. A rhythm to hold to, a rhythm to live to. Have you been down like this before? I guarantee there’s something waiting for you just open that door. A rhythm to live by, that moves your soul. A rhythm that holds you. A rhythm to live to. And if there’s one thing we all need now, it’s a rhythm to live by, a rhythm of hope. Lying here awake again. |

There’s a thunder in my head, a roar I can’t escape I can’t ignore this certain fate I’m experiencing something, I can’t explain There’s a frame of reference fragile at best An itching fear that’s stronger than the rest Follow the black ribbon into the sun Push it further baby, careful with this burnout now I’m losing myself in you and trying to get back to me But I’m so far away, I’m losing myself.... The sand in my mouth, the wind and heat I feel numb Ten days on the road and it feels like where I’ve been ain’t so bad Gotta get back home to you Gotta get back home to you Gotta get back home Throttle back slowly there’s no time like now Red line it baby I’m pushing to the edge now I’m losing myself in you and trying to get back to me But I’m so far away, I’m losing myself... I’m beating down this desert highway one hundred miles an hour times two But I’m so far away, I’m a million miles away Interlude I’m losing myself in you and trying to get back to me But I’m so far away, I’m losing myself... Get me off this desert highway Gotta get back to you but I’m so far away I’m a million miles away... a million miles away.... a million.. |

There's hunger in africa,
And anger on assembly lines. At the touch of a button I'm miles away. I want no connection, just information, And i'm gone. I feel so helpless, So i turn my gaze to another place. My global mind reaches out for the truth. Why try holding back the wave? You'll only drown in the changes. You've got to learn to let go. Just let go and experience the flight. Try to see from a different side.. If balance is the key Maybe we'll see A future understanding, Then we won't feel so helpless, An turn away and hide from the change. My global mind searches for something new. My global mind zeros in on news. Time and rules are changing. Attention span is quickening. Welcome to the information age. I feel so helpless, So i turn my gaze to another place. My global mind searches for something new. My global mind zeros in on news. My global mind reaches out for the truth. My global mind zeros in on you. It's searching everywhere, Across the mountains, Across the oceans, Across every man made line. No boundary gonna keep it from you. |
