to those who never give

to those who always take and break

on tears and pain they live

this one's dedicated

to those who never care

to whose who who always preach and lie

and leave you cold and bare

this one's dedicated

to those who make you cry

to those who take your dreams away

and always crucify

born in the age of fireworks

it's a case of do or die

pain causes a hundred reasons

so watch them reasons fly

- walls of never

like a sream of hate in a silent movie

honesty seems out of date

triumph - testament - eliza

raise your glass for those who wait

cause this one's dedicated

to those who still believe

to those who sing and draw and write

who try, protect and weave

- walls of never...

maybe I'm a sinner - maybe I'm a fool

maybe I'm a prisoner of the everlasting rule

maybe I'm a looser - maybe I need a priest

maybe I've seen too much and the coming of the beast

some call me a traitor - some call me a saint

some call me a coward and what I'm shure I ain't

and I'll never go back to silence

and I'll never go back to war

and I'll never know what the reason is

and what to be fighting for

and I'll never be a warrior

and I'll never be like you

and I'll never kill tomorrow's life

whatever you may do

I'm always gonna hate what you want

remain in silence - purple heart

watching the night fall - waiting for the start

give words of desire to my song

words of fire for my soul to carry on

So take me away from here

destruction, blood and fear

and I'll never go back to silence

and I'll never go back to war

and I'll never know what the reason is

and what to be fighting for

(I'm always gonna)

h8 what you want

somebody's out there - calling your name in the night

somebody's out there - somewhere

somebody's out there with the cold winds of tomorrow

somebody's turning the wheels of time

the closer you get the deeper the night

the stronger you feel the more you need

someone to hold you tight

a place you can hide

you and I - invisible

whole life is such a miracle

somebody - somebody - somebody's out there

to name it all - legends fall

to tell about it

somebody - somebody - somebody's out there

to blame it all - another wall

to lead me back to you

is there anybody out there - is he wise and is he real?

does he pay attention when someone cries or what we feel?

is he reading my nightmares, love affairs, against-the-wind-cares

got to be older or bolder or on my way?

You and I - invisible

whole life is such a miracle

will the forces of daybreak someday quit the fight?

do androids dream of electric sheep in the night?

faster than light?

will princes of anger on horses of pain

gather in silence and black where only skeletons

remain

in the toxical rain?

and we dance to the beat of the night

- swallow our fears for the trace of a moment

while chances retreat in the light

follow acid tears down to the river of

toxical roses - toxical roses

where do we go - straight to the overkill?

chemical weapons - greenhouse effect

industrial dragons in search of a cause

Tschernobyl - Avalon - spaces' jaws?

the old entertainer - once jester of kings

but nobody listens when now of puppets

he sings - on toxical strings

and we dance to the beat of the night

- swallow our fears for the trace of a moment

while chances retreat in the light

follow acid tears down to the river of

will someday time stand still

or can we find a way

to catch a lightning in the dark

to open the eyes of the world?

thought you'd be my friend

stuck with me until the end

thought you'd be okay

thought you'd share my way

thought I could trust in you

but you broke my heart in two

thought a dream would last

but your lies came fast

oh, you act so cool

but I ain't your fool

so make it one for my pride

and one for the ride

centuries of war and lies,

crusade and inquisition

an old man's face with eyes

in flames of superstition

somewhere in a darkened room

beyond the gate of fire

twilight calls the claws of doom,

wisdom and desire

like raves in the morning light

saints of death prepare the night

sister mercy's sacred rite

awakes the wings of fire

and when the tears are falling

will you call my name

will you touch the flame

Gloria - Gloria in destiny...

my son, and when you're old enough

to reach the skies of hate and love

listen to the stars above

and lift your spirit higher

and when the tears are falling

will you call my name

will you touch the flame

Gloria - Gloria in destiny...

most of the time

I tried to win

in a world that's much too cold to see

but still I believe

there's a river to cross

and beyond the waters someone waits for me

and all the years I can't deny

and all the tears you'll never cry for me

but I will never loose again

saw all the things I had to see

and I will never loose again

all the pain - all the pride

all the rain and all the light

most of the time

I tried to live

like an eagle on his wings up in the skies

and I made some mistakes

but still no regrets

and all the reasons are like mountains in my eyes

and so I take my clothes again

hit the road - it's over when I'm gone

on and on

and I will never loose again

saw all the things I had to see

and I will never loose again

all the pain - all the pride

all the rain and all the light

there's a sign saying "phones in rooms"

there's a blind man bangin' the drums of doom

there's a barking dog on the telephone line

there's a beggar on the street sayin' "I'm doin' fine"

there's a cry - there's a cry in the night

another love has died

there's a dream dyin' on second floor

while a businessman waits at the doors

for somemercyfulbody to bring the key

and break the chains of misery

there's a cry... and I'm missing you

and the night comes down and the lights go out

in my bedroom lies a drunken astronaut

and I stare at your picture and wonder why

we had to say goodbye

and I cry

I'm missing you...

standin' in the rain

sometimes love is pain - yes it is

take me back - back to light

back to where we hold on tight - death

Romeo and Juliet

no surrender, no regret

you and me - you and I

trust is fear until we lie

inside we die

inside - taken by

Lust is a killer - lust is a test

Lust is a killer, - comin' back

Lust is a killer - lust is a test

Lust is a killer on the attack

no excess for me

'round the pleasure sea

every kiss could be the last

to soon - too fast - at all

always on my mind

gettin' to nowhere ridin' the wings of time

inside we die...

se evil's calling

so lust is a test

so evil's fast (coming back)

so evil's falling down

enjoy the rest...

never say never - never say die

never never never - never say die

time is a liar

life is a trail

lords of desire

and the cheque's in mail

close your eyes and you will see

the dark side of your fantasy

eyes of lust and dreams of black

heroes gone that won't come back

politicians cheat and lie

blind corruption makes you cry

destination face to face

conscience gone without a trace

white man - black man - might have been

just the colour - of your skin

"all the perople shall be equal!"

so why do we cause the pain?

"...It is a fact that most crimes committed

against people because of their colour or religion

had nothing to do with the individual personality

of the victims. Since the traffic death of Dr. Martin

Luther King the word race war has got a terrifying

meaning to all minorities all over the world..."

never say never - never say die

never look back when you say goodbye

you gotta be black - you gotta be white

never say never - unchain the night

Lost in the darkness - strangers on the loose

even your touch now can't take away my blues

destiny - the rest of me

hatred took humanity

freedom is the only treasure

so why can't you let it be

"... is pain just another word for life?

do we frist have to blled before we reach the point

to be somebody

do dreams come true after loneliness and desperation have gone?

some say yey - some say no - but in the end:

who knows?..."

never say never - never say die

never look back when you say goodbye

you gotta be black - you gotta be white

you gotta be the light

Never say never - never say Cain

never shed tears in the falling rain

you gotta be strong on the edge of your life

never say never - shall we die?

yesterday I had a dream

I walked alone

in the shadows of mind

yesterday our lifes were cream

and reasons shown

were like seagulls left behind

and I'll never say goodbye

to sirens

don't leave me now - don't leave me now

in dark ages

we shall raise our hands

in the silence we shall rise

we got to turn the pages

try hard to understand

wake up - break them bastards lies

don't remember the cries in the night

don't close your eyes - nowhere to hide

don't look away - Don't leave me now

livin' on a timebomb tickin'

it's not too late to stop the flood

boat on a burnin' river

teardrops of blood

traces of the past so dirty

terrify me to the bones

they try to rule the world

made of shit and not of stone

don't you remember...

now that the show is over

and the people have all gone

I face the final curtain

it's just the same old song

I make 'em laugh - I make 'em cry

dream on loud until I die alone

with a heart of stone?

I'm pushing every fader

for tenderness and fame

another masquerader

and noone left to blame

the tears inside - the burning rains

I have to hide - my smile remains

as long as walls come tumbling down

the world always needs a clown

I know the world keeps spinning round

and round and round again

I catch the flames of yesterday

and I do the best I can

well, I'm the entertainer

a poet in the ring

some call me a joker

and some like to hear me sing
