Penetration

Come into the Open

Maybe I should go or should I stay
Well I just don’t know
I’m scared of going out alone
The vultures wait to tear
My soul apart

Come into the open
There’s nothing left to hide
Come into the open
Where I can see your face
Among the crowd

I can remember feeling lost
Unwittingly I found my way
I sense the depth of your despair
The torturous guilt you carry
Everywhere you go

Come into the open etc

Bridge instrumental section

Show me, show me, lead me
Out into the open
There’s nothing left to hide
Come into the open
Where I can see your face among the crowd

And through the misty haze
Of youth and ideology
I’m seeing things more clearly
now
I know that nothing can deceive
me as I

Come into the open etc

Come in
Come in

Consider your destiny
You threw all those chances away
Now you're clutching at too many straws
And waiting for fortune to play
When you reached out your hand
There was nobody there
To protect and reassure you
Now the curtains are closed to the past
But the future is open to you.

Watching the wheels go round
Watching the ship go down
Somebody throw her a line
She'll make the next move ....

Treading the tightrope of fate
As incidents throw you of course
She remembers the power and the strength
of this, the invincible force
When you wish for too much.
You get nothing at all
When you waited you got your reward
When you ask for too much
You get nothing at all
So take all you need and move on

Something says it’s time for change
If that’s what people want
Wheels are turning
Conscious burning
Will they ever stop
And sometimes I see all the answers
Does fate tell me what to do
Decision, a clearer vision
Moving into view

Solo

Sometimes I’m optimistic
And then you disappoint
Sometimes I’m going nowhere
I need time to think things out and
Sometimes I see a direction
Does fate tell me what to do
Decision, a clearer vision
You can see it too

Life’s a gamble
Life’s a gamble
Life’s a gamble
Life’s a gamble, life’s a gamble

Moaning

Life’s a gamble

Into outro.

I looked into the hourglass
And watched the grains of sand
I wandered through the latitudes
And crossed the strangest lands

L Laughing
L Loving
Reach the promised land
F Fighting
L Losing
Lost beneath the sand
Journeys into places
No man has ever been
Conquering the continents
No man has ever seen

Where time amounts in misery
Where treasure's buried deep
Where no man enters to disturb
The king's eternal sleep

L Laughing
L Loving
Reach the promised land
F Fighting
L Losing
Lost beneath the sand
Journeys into places
No man has ever been
Conquering the continents
No man has ever seen

I'm lost in a forgotten world
Where ancient heroes fell
The Sphinxes guard, their solitude
Their bodies rot in hell

L Laughing
L Loving
Reach the promised land
F Fighting
L Losing
Lost beneath the sand
Journeys into places
No man has ever been
Conquering the continents
No man has ever seen

Shout

The preachers run towards their shelters
They’ve got to find somewhere to hide
Discontentment fills the air
As everyone looks for some escape
Don’t let them win
Don’t them drag you in
Shout above the noise

Burning bridges doesn’t mean
That you can’t return where you came from
Persevere and rear your head
Just to let someone know you’re here

Don’t let them win
Don’t them drag you in
Shout above the noise

Instrumental

When everything around you falls
And all the walls are closing in
Situations in control
You must exercise your strength of will
Don’t let them win
Don’t them drag you in
Shout above the noise
(Repeat)

Silence is no virtue in a crowded world
Where no-one hears
Feast your eyes upon the fools
Who follow the leaders without thought
Don’t let them win
Don’t them drag you in
Shout above the noise
(Repeat)

You’re searching for someone else’s
Identity, identity
So push your way down to the front
Make no mistake make no mistake
Don’t let them win
Don’t them drag you in
Shout above the noise
(Repeat)

Alone in the darkness
The firelight flickers
A cry in the distance
That shatters the silence.

Lost with her thoughts
There’s no one to confide in
The baby is crying
But she doesn’t want to hear it

Take me away
She hears herself say
Have I the nerve
To run away from it all

She is the slave

So cold is compassion
So strange are these feelings
The shadows are watching her
She knows it, she feels it
Alone in her dark room
Her mind holds the key
To her memory, to set her free
And end this misery

Take me away etc

She is the slave

Sometimes she feels she can’t go on
She sees her life as past and gone
Alternative solutions seem inviting
But they’re out of reach
But soon the time will come
To face reality
The future holds the key
To set her free
Is this the end to all her misery?

Take me away etc

She is the slave

Henrietta, why are you calling
The last dance is over
The guests have all gone
You drank your champagne
And the roses are dead now
Henrietta, why must you live on?

You're alone now.

And laughter it echoes
Through sparkling hallways
The ladies are waiting in velvet and bows
So strike up the music
We'll dance until daylight
The ghosts never sleep
As the dust settles down.

You're alone now.

Together, forever
as silence awakes you
You're watching the figures
go round and round, round and round
Voices are whispering - "party's over"
So Henrietta why must you live on?

You're alone now.

Walking, running, searching for something
Premonitions in my mind
That turn into reality and vague replays
Premonitions in my mind
That turn into reality of future daze

Frightened of something
A feeling just something

Blabber

Do I really feel this weird sensation
Is it only in my brain
Or is it just an image flashing past my eyes


Is it just a trick of light
A brief acquaintance
In this life
Or is he from a memory
Deep inside of me

I wanna know

Deja vu, deja who, deja me
Uncertain of the future I don’t want to see
Wonder if you recognise
Remember me?
Who am I, who are you, who are we

Blabber

Do I really feel this weird sensation etc
