1. Storm
Define yourself by telling lies
You sell your soul for every short attention
You steal your way into my trust
Dressed as seduction you are curious and cruel
Like acid words bleed from your mouth
I can see your true face now
I have left blindness behind me
It reveals who you really are
You’ve sown wind for so long...
Now you reap storm
You reap storm now
Now you reap storm
You reap storm now
Hiding the truth behind your words
But your snake-tongue leads me easily astray
One mouth speaks the truth, the other lies
To trust in you has always been a bad advice
2. The End Of The Line
The earth is crying out for mercy
Seems no one’s gonna hear her scream
We all walk straight in wrong directions
Are we much too blind to understand?
This is the only ground for living
No other planet we can go to
(or is there anyone you know?)
Realize nobody can eat money
Why did it take so long to understand?
Wake up! You fool!
Look all the things we’re gonna fade out to be free
Oh! Wasted chances
These visions I see scare me more than you will ever know
If there are no more eagles gonna ride the open sky
And no more whales that cross the seven seas
Realize somehow we’ve reached the end of the line
We are caught in a world that slowly dies, that slowly dies
Extinction gets a new dimension
Why doesn’t anyone believe?
Subdue the earth and all that’s living
Something we must have misunderstood
We call ourselves „pride of creation“
Pride always comes before the fall
(you want the most and lose it all)
I got a truth that might surprise you
No one cares when we all disappear
3. Saviour
Life struck me, pulled the trigger
There’s nothing left to lose
Let me know if there’s something worth living for
Back from where I was started
I’ve been here far too long
How many ears I walked this path alone
You came along and saved me
You caught me when I fell
You broke my shell and all these chains that held me
Release my tortured heart
The loneliness is tearing me apart
Give me the reasons for a fairytale gone bad
Thought that I knew it all
But then the world became my master
There is no way out when you are falling down
Oh! Come on and kiss away my pain
Erase my memories
Look at the fragments of my life
Illusions never change
Change into something that is real
I beg for you to come
‘Cause you will always be my savior
You’ll always be my last resort
Back on my feet I’m standing
But I can hardly walk
Oh! Let your hands embrace my broken heart
You’ve turned the night into day
Changed darkness into light
Give me the strength to fight these daily races
4. One Fine Day
Some days will fade to gray
Good times seem far away
Who knows what future holds
‘Cause life knows all the dirty tricks
Each time you find yourself
Lying flat on your face
That’s life, you can’t deny
Pick yourself up get back into race
From the cradle to the grave
This is the only life I’ll live
I just can’t complain
The joy of life is worth the pain
Fate gives the stick on me
Life left some scars you’ll see!
I won’t get off the track
I haven’t come this far to quit right now
Been loosing many fights
But I won’t lose my faith
Will give it one more try
I grab my chance, I still believe
I go all the way to my dreams
Destiny guides me along dusty roads
‘Cause I choose to be free to be me
This is my time and my life and I do it my way
I’ve learnt from my mistakes
I’m standing up again
Pick up my broken dreams
The paths we chose decide our fate
Believe in what I am
Ready to ride for a fall
I step up to the plate
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
5. King For A Day
So what are you waiting for?
Just play your whole hand until it’s through
Life’s waiting in front of you
Just open up the door and let it in
You’ve prayed for better days
Common get your head out of your ass
It’s like you against the world
Defy the storm and you will make the day
It’s time to break the spell
The world lies at your feet
It’s time to leave the cage
The world is yours
All that you had prayed for
Forget all about blood, sweat and tears
Just keep your head held high
You’ll become king for one day
There’s nothing to be afraid of
Don’t care about the things they’ve said and done
Just keep your head held high
You’ll become king for a day
Life’s too short to compromise
Straight forward, the time is here and now
Don’t care what might have been
Stop thinking about the things you cannot change
Live your dream don’t dream your life
Go on get your chance don’t hesitate
Forge your own destiny
Every moment counts 'cause there’s no second chance
6. Riddle
As light as a feather
Thoughts are drifting away
To places no one dares to dream
In the darkness of my mind
I am lost without a trace
Caught by the moment
I can hardly breathe
Feels like forever and a day
I’ve been walking on this path
I have done this all before
All that seemed so important
It’s mere mirror and smoke
I’m filled with voice but never speak
I’m all at once I’m strong I’m weak
And stay forever with the stars
Way up high on clouds of gray
Where the time creates the day
I was born before the sun
Where it all began
I’m the bliss in everything
I’m the feather and the wing
Riddle out my dream
Draw the veil of oblivion
Where I’m hiding myself
Will you get the chance to see?
To see what no one else can see
Figure out what’s really me
7. Only Human
How do you do this morning?
How does it feel to face the news?
Cheating, lies and corruption
Look there is real blood on the screen
Raise your voice you will be heard
Their time is up our time will come
Wise men said good things take time
Rome wasn’t built within a day
So raise your voice
Let’s stand up for the things we believe in
Don’t just raise a white flag and give up
Never said that I had all the answers,
But if we change ourselves, we could change...
... Everything
I don’t think there is any leader
It’s more like the blind leading the blind
We don’t need your confessions
Or any other lame excuse
Always grub first than ethics
All your regrets aren’t worth a dime
False promises from their lips
Just empty words for desperate ears
8. The Hunter
Gray the clouds are rolling by
As I look up to the sky
No one knows my secret
I think that no one ever will
Fate is calling for me
I’ve been waiting for so long
Close my eyes and breathe in
Then I count to ten
Beware, ‘cause I’m hunting for you
Lights out, I can smell your fear
Tear up, you will find no fortress
Time is on my side
The night is my companion
I carry both bowstring and steel
The only thing that matters
Take the glory steal the prize
You look a little anxious
Don’t get me wrong
Soon you’re gonna find out
Who’s the hunted one
9. Morpheus Dream
I still can remember
Drifting among the spheres of time
Everything is fading
And I am alone
I’m torn inside
Blinded by the moment
Standing before the lord of dreams
He knows me and my fears
I’ll lay down my head
I close my weary eyes
In Morpheus dream
I can heal my wounds
In Morpheus dream
I can heal my soul
Watching, waiting, hoping
Hear you call out my name
Taunt me, haunt me, catch me
I’m not afraid to sleep
Chaos, anger, sadness
I’m afraid to wake up
Disguising, deception, illusion,
It’s the price that I pay
A moment of meaning
I saw the truth before my eyes
I knew all the answers
Don’t know what the questions are
It suffused my mind
I’ve heard a song of my life
That whispered in my head
A new dawn a new day
Embraces the world
And time stood still
10. Bane Of Our Existence
Hold up a minute look around yourself
You’re caught up in a daily rush
A little wheel in the machinery
Is this really what you are?
It’s like a puzzle of a grand design
We lose the things that give us life
Realize
Our memories are fading
We try to run, but cannot hide
Running around in circles asking who we are
Praying for miracles
But they are out of sight
To know what you want
To know what you need
That’s all you need to know
To live life fully
Counting the moments of your wasted time
Those days are gone they won’t return
If someone tells me that’s the sense of life
I will strongly disagree
A deeper pocket brings an empty heart
There’s more to live than meet the eyes
What’s wrong today?
When do we lose our way?
Tell me do you really think that money buys you anything?
Open up your mind
You will start to feel again
Digging deep into your soul
Go for the perfect goal
Let the chips fall where they may
Open up your eyes
If you try you’ll realize
Cast your sorrows to the wind
Make a brand new start
From the pieces torn apart
11. Once
Life changes so sudden
We’ll never quit working on our dream
We’ll grab fate by throat
Because it shall never drag us down
Time works for those who believe
One day we’ll pay our dues
No!
There is nothing on earth that keeps us away
From trying
Come hell or high water
Next time we just try a little more
No one’s born a master
A single stroke won’t fell an oak
Once is not enough
Make it or break it
Soon we’re gonna find out
Get up and stand your ground
I swear we’ll never give up
Without fight
Don’t waste your chances
Till the task is done, the quest complete
Hard work will pay off
And life’s always worth another try
Advices
Your choices
You try to build your dreams
Just three things
That help you
Your mind
Your heart
Your hands
12. House Of Cards
Why do you run from me?
You know you cannot escape from me
I’m sorry, but there is no way out
Searching, always searching for a way
Out of an endless maze
With traps and tricks to catch the innocent
Realize you brought this down on yourself
So you see what you wanted
Your sick and twisted lie turned back on you
You played your cards so well
But we both know you cheat
The construct of lies will fall
Like a house of cards one blow from caving in
So tell me was it worth the price?
Can you still look me in the eyes?
Tell me, I guess I don’t understand
Are you surprised to see me here?
The scales fell from my eyes
It’s such a shame what you’ve become
Oh! I never did believe
A single word you say
You always try to bend the truth I know
Such a hypocrite to me
Now you got what you deserve
You should pull a card
And you pulled out the bottom one
You played all your cards
I won fair in square
Next round’s on you
I didn’t care
Try as you might
But what’s the use of trying?
I control the cards
I’ll deal them as I wish
Your house of cards
Built up with lies
Collapsed on you
It’s far too late
You knocked it down
You can’t blame me
The blame’s on you
Why can’t you see?
