INSANIA LYRICS

1. The Spirit Is Gone (The Spirit Suite Part I)

somewhere in time - on through the night
among the living our forces allied
denim and leather - hellbound forever
riding the lightning to praise - the day ...

hell awaits - as he broke the oath
judas the sinner was fighting the world
the iron fist - of heaven and hell
showing no mercy to him - no way! ...

he is alive - believes to tell the wrong from right
but in fact he lost his mind - in a world of black and white
burning all the witches seems to him the only way
in the end he is the one to burn at his own stake

no prophet of steel - no hammer to fall
can break down the jericho wall after all
restless and wild - the beast inside
screaming for vengeance again - today ...

he is alive - believes to tell the wrong from right
but in fact he lost his mind - in a world of black and white
burning all the witches seems to him the only way
in the end he is the one to burn at his own stake

the poisoned pen scared once too deep
now he's a wolf among the sheep
he was so true without a sin
now truth is something strange to him
one for all and all for one
the same ideals we marked upon
but nevermore like yesterday
the spirit he once kept has gone – away...

he is alive - believes to tell the wrong from right
but in fact he lost his mind - in a world of black and white
burning all the witches seems to him the only way
in the end he is the one to burn at his own stake

2. Once United...Twice Divided (The Spirit Suite Part II)

3. Set Them Free 2002 (Version 2002)

a man walks 'round , around the ball
millions (of) dollars for his trips
in his hands the holy book
and it's praying: "down the disease"

hear what he prays, don't trust words
no more lies 'bout hell
lots of children suffer pain
masses die in vain
set them free

he blesses the poor someday god will help
he's marching on (to) another town
while they rest and wait for help
slowly hunger rots 'em down

hear what he prays, don't trust words
no more lies 'bout hell
lots of children suffer pain
masses die in vain
set them free

thanks god for making them believe
that i'm the holy father
next year i want to visit south america again
the military's very nice and the meals are very gently
ha, ha, ha

hear what he prays, don't trust words
no more lies 'bout hell
lots of children suffer pain
masses die in vain
set them free

4. Trash

still we suffer - the old disease
minds poluted - brains are freezed
circles are turning - while we stagnate
(we're) fed up with glory - believe in fake

nothing is as simple as we really are
do we really think to be the only ones?
we just count on what we got
rely on just a single part
live our little world ...

we develop - in rise of shares
minds retire - but no one cares
science we measure - in gain and loss
limit progression - repeating odds

nothing is as simple as we really are
do we really think to be the only ones?
we just count on what we got
rely on just a single part
live our little world ...

we are trash of evolution
we are nothing - we are none
we are lost - without solution
no denying: future is when we are gone
(in time)

5. Greed

dead - alive - reborn out of my grave
i'm led only by your sweet smell
and my tired body tries creeping up on you
once again i'm forced by my greed

out in these nights, out in these nights
seeking for some sweeter life
out in these nights, out in these nights
seeking for some other life

i taste your blood, drops still stuck here on my lips
let me drink your love just once more
but now you lay there lifeless and cold
and again i'm led by this force

out in these nights, out in these nights
seeking for some sweeter life
out in these nights, out in these nights
seeking for some other life

no trace of life left in you, givin' rights to my greed
eyes are staring wide opened, your soul makes itself rare
your blood now flowin' in my veins, forever on and on
makes my soul wake up now, hearing the wolves howling

greed in these nights - seeking for some sweeter life
greed in these nights - seeking for some other life
greed in these nights - so why do i have to live forever?
greed in these nights - tell me why i had to live that way

ready to hunt another time, for you no place to hide
flee into the dark of night, save it safe my might
i don't know how to find my love, she slowly passed away
lovin' you forevermore until i go to hell

greed in these nights - seeking for some sweeter life
greed in these nights - seeking for some other life
greed in these nights - so why do i have to live forever?
greed in these nights - tell me why i had to live that way

6. Masquerade

she's the wave that keeps me carryin' on
holds the key the one to free my soul

like the night - oh like the night that has awaken me
feel the fire - i feel the fire that's burnin' deep in me
(i'm) haunted by her magic spell, i can't escape her game
(i'm) locked into her mystic eyes - am i the one to blame?

when i'm down i'm feelin' lost and blue
when darkness surrounds (me) hear some strange cry
when i'm gone all i want to know

all i fear it lies deep behind your masquerade
won't you ever show your real face
cannot see what you hide behind your masquerade
you're the lust that sealed my fate

she's the power that keeps me still alive
risin' flames to feed my inner pride

like the blood - the blood i feel that's flowin' in my veins
there's a might - confusing might that's torturing my brain
something in my mind demands for things i cannot see
in your eyes and in your heart i'm locked without a key

when i'm down i'm feelin' lost and blue
when darkness surrounds (me) hear some strange cry
when i'm gone all i want to know

all i fear it lies deep behind your masquerade
won't you ever show your real face
cannot see what you hide behind your masquerade
you're the lust that sealed my fate

when i'm down i'm feelin' lost and blue
when darkness surrounds (me) hear some strange cry
when i'm gone all i want to know

all i fear it lies deep behind your masquerade
won't you ever show your real face
cannot see what you hide behind your masquerade
you're the lust that sealed my fate

7. Grey

i'm gonna leave this world today
remember back a place so cold
escape to find some better place
leave my body, free my soul
i'm gonna leave your life today
your love and warmth, your tenderness
leavin' all that hurts behind
all remains ... just agony

grey ' as my wishes melt away, all i see seems so unreal
pray (to) be born another age, like a sunrise in myself
grey - as my wishes melt away, all i see seems so unreal
pray (to) be born another age, like a sunrise in myself

so i'm leaving this world today
no pain shall hit me anymore
no lonely soul to plague my life
hunted deep into this loneliness
ain't no shelter for my fears
maybe i'm not what you thought
hold my hands before my eyes
hide away the tears i cry ' it's ...

grey ' as my soul starts to decay, all the things seem so unreal
pray (to) be born another age, like a sunrise in myself

surely i will be missing your love
distance and closeness ' all things you gave
i'm fading away into loneliness
hide myself ' forgotteness
once you brought my face to light
once you warmed my lonely mind
will i ever see the signs
will i keep your face inside, it's ...

grey ' as my wishes melt away, all you said seemed so unreal
feel the birth of a new age, like i'm reborn by myself

grey - as you're going straight to hell, i'm not going to play your game
i know you're the one's to blame, as i take your life away

8. Soulless (The Spirit Suite Part III)

his spirit's lost without a trace
he hides behind a second face
his heart is now as cold as ice
time claimed its sacrifice

the only point we could unite
too far away to see
the only place to meet
not more than an ancient ruin

soulless - any single word he writes
is just like a breath in vain
hopeless - we will never reunite
get out of my way

he's at the point of no return
all he believed in he has burned
i think of dreams we used to share
they've turned into nightmares

i never thought we could divide
but we were torn apart
the only place we meet
not more than an ancient ruin

soulless - any single word he writes
is just like a breath in vain
hopeless - we will never reunite
get out of my way

9. The Spirit Reprise (The Spirit Suite Part IV)

his poisoned pen hurts once to deep
now he's a wolf among the sheep
he was so true without a sin
now truth is something strange for him
one for all and all for one
the same ideals we marked upon
but nevermore like yesterday
he lost his spirit on his way

his poisoned pen will hurt no more
his mind is rotten to the core
now i'm the truth and he's the sin
believe me I would pray for him
but i am all and he is none
betraying all he marked upon
forever now his spirit's gone
but i got mine to carry on ...
