MICHAEL KISKE LYRICS

1. You Always Walk Alone

[From Helloween's Keeper Of The Seventh Keys. Part II (1988)]

When I hold the key to open heaven's door
I will never make the mistake and give it back
when I hold the key to open my mind before it's too late
I will never give it back

There's just one way I see
the way I think it's right for me
you say to me I will repent what I do
if it's right I'll stop before

When I see the light of sun will fade away
And I reveal what I have loved before
it's too late when I can't see the hours I pay
and I reveal what I have loved before

There's just one way I see
the way I think it's right for me
you say to me I will repent what I do
if it's right I'll stop before

The life I try to give is
all I have inside of me
it's one kind of life for me
this music you hear
the strength we have inside is
so much more than you will know
but if you can't see the life around
you'll always walk alone

Look at the drunk man, look into his eyes
see his strong hands
but tomorrow they will tremble cold as ice
see the drunk man, try to ask him why
he will laugh, and tomorrow he will tell you another lie
there's a fight in his head he cannot win
getting stronger, makes him mad, burning sin

You--you cannot hide
You--you cannot describe your feelings inside

The life I try to give is
all I have inside of me
it's one kind of life for me
this music you hear
the strength we have inside is
so much more than you will know
but if you can't see the life around
you'll always walk alone

2. We Got The Right

[From Helloween's Keeper Of The Seventh Keys. Part II (1988)]

Don't turn your head
back to the wall
don't close your eyes
and wait for your fall

If you believe that you know in this time
you've got anything to win
if you believe that you know
then I say, "you'll lose all again"

In this time there's nothing to get for you
you cannot really do what you want
you're a child, a prisoner in your mind
you are a victim of this hopeless time

You better believe all you do has a sense
it's not for nothing
you better believe all the troubles you have
will play you someday

Why don't you help yourself and do the best
put all the bombs back up their builders' ass
why don't you stand up to say who you are
to show the people that paradise is not far

Oh, can't you see we got the right
to look into the future without no need to hide
no, we won't accept what you do
we stand up 'cause we're not the people you can abuse
oh, can't you see we got the right
to say we are here to see the light
no, we don't wanna lose all again
stand up, you people, to save the world
as good as you can

We are credulous idiots
and won't understand what they plan
we march with the times
it's what they expect and we do

Why don't you open your eyes
to undercover all of these lies
I think you won't accept this
go oppose with your fist
fight for your rights

Oh, can't you see we got the right
to say we are here to see the light
no, we don't wanna lose all again
stand up, you people, to save the world
as good as you can
no, we don't wanna lose all again
stand up, you people, to save the world
as good as you can

3. I Believe

[From Helloween's Chameleon (1993)]

Give me two strong arms to fight my enemies,
Give me two eyes to see the truth.
Give me two legs I think I have to run,
And fill my heart with faith that I won't lose.
I don't wanna lose ...

Give me one real love that I don't freeze out there,
Make me feel your presence in the night.
Give me one strong heart that tells me when I lie,
And take my soul - so I won't have to hide.
I don't wanna hide ...

It's so cold deep down here, I know we had to fall,
Souls are dying everywhere but whatever I do I believe.
I Believe ... I Believe ... I Believe ... Believe ...

It's so cold deep down here, I know we had to fall,
Souls are dying everywhere but whatever I do ...
There'll be no reason to live without you giving me light,
There is so much that you give, your love is shining so bright.
I Believe ... I Believe ... I Believe ... Believe ...

I wanna love but I always hate - I wanna give but I always take.
Want you to laugh but I make you cry, maybe I won't change 'til I die.
It's so much easier said than done - I know I can't just always run.
Got so much anger inside of me, I understand but I think I see what I'm not.
I know it's true what J.C. said - I got it all clear in my head.
Since we were born to be unfair,
I am a sinner that's starting to dare ... to Believe.
Give me your hand until the end and I will walk into promised land.
I don't deserve anything you do - but I can't stop loving you.

No more lies, no false religions,
No more "whys" and wrong God missions.
No shiny T.V. priests begging to cash,
No more wars that no God's ever asked for.
There's a way back out of here - one day we're going home,
Tell everyone who wants to hear - whatever you do ... do Believe.
I Believe ... We Believe ... Believe ... Oh!

4. Longing

[From Helloween's Chameleon (1993)]

Feelings come and go - I've never known,
Something longs to grow - won't let go.
Spirits around my head - are whispering,
I turn inside instead - of wondering.

Deep inside of me - I know there's got to be,
A different kind of truth - that sets the spirit free.
If I don't wanna know - what's written inside me,
How could I see anything - how could I be anything?

Restless minds have searched - long before,
The truth will be same - for evermore.
The mightiness of trees - that you can feel,
Can give you all you need - just listen still.

Here is love and there is pain.
It's all around, it's all the same,
There's nothing new that I could tell to you.
But still there is the universe inside of us that never bursts,
We might not know the mining yet, but I am sure we can't reject
The truth that is in everything - that is and has been and will be.

There is a long way to go - there is a high place to know,
There is a world to go through - but there's so much more to do
Until we're home!

Deep inside of me - I know there's got to be,
A different kind of truth - that sets the spirit free.
If I don't wanna know - what's written inside me,
How could I see anything - how could I be anything?

Feelings come and go - I've never known...

5. Your Turn

[From Helloween's Pink Bubbles Go Ape (1991)]

Now there is this day, a lot of things are changing
Can't just kick it away, got to get things right
Sometimes it happens fast and nothin' seems to last
The thing that I once started isn't mine anymore
I guess now it's my turn

You've got a face like a child, got a mind like a woman
Your smile is warm and tender
I hear the people say that I should stay away
From you and all the problems you might bring
They'll never know--you
Nobody ever knows what to do
They'll never see you cry
They'll never know why

Now it's your turn to break free
When you want it all you've got to see
Now it's your turn to break free
When you want the life, you've got to see what it means

See the little boy holding mama's hand
His eyes can see the things we've long forgotten
The world is easy now--and somehow
He's right
Until there is this day when Mickey Mouse must go away

It's your turn to break free...

This world is crying to be free
This world is dying can't you see
We need a turn to do it right
We need a mind-revolution
To get away from this selfishness
Stop playing blind--break free

6. Kids Of The Century

[From Helloween's Pink Bubbles Go Ape (1991)]

We poison our hearts
We poison our seas
We burn down the paradise

We're stoppin' good waves
We're losin' our trees
The future looks bright ahead
I don't wonder we'll go under in this river of lies

We're lost in this time--we create so fine
The future we already fear
Seems like no way out, seems like there's no doubt
The future looks bright ahead

We're the kids of the century--we're lost in our games
No time for the memories we look in the haze
We're the kids of the century it wasn't our fault
Everything's done mum, we fall
Let's keep on crying
But sometimes I don't wanna fall

Everytime when you look around things will smile at you
Everytime when you turn around you smell the truth
But you run away from the lies you can't say
Don't run away from the lies you can't say

We're the kids...

7. In The Night

[From Helloween's Chameleon (1993)]

In the night I'm calling you - be my guide, help me through,
In the night I call your name - you're the light in times of shame.
The songs I sing, all my love - I bring for you.

I always try to makethings better, everything that has gone wrong,
Mighty plans in the right direction but very little has been done.
Everyday when I try to get forward - I find myself another mile back,
Help me fighting, help me breathing - why am I falling down instead?

Every useful minute seems to be the thought of you,
Every hour seems like wasted, filled with things that I might do.
Without love in my reactions seems the saddest thing, but it's true.

In the night I'm calling you - be my guide, help me through,
In the night I call your name - you're the light in times of shame.
The songs I sing, all my love - I bring for you.

Free from ourselves and free form this world we may find,
The freedom we search ,'cause all that we need is inside.
The hours we waste - we may not get back for a while,
And when it gets dark - no chance will be there for atry.

When I wake up early in the morning I catch a book and jump inside,
I fill my head with a million wonders and try to fill the night with light.
The moment when I get things clearer - I see another mountain to climb.
And always when I think I'm nearer - I realize there is no time.

In the night I'm calling you - be my guide, help me through,
In the night I call your name - you're the light in times of shame.
Sometimes I cried after all I lied to you.

8. Goin' Home

[From Helloween's Pink Bubbles Go Ape (1991)]

You think I could be the one to look inside your mind
I don't think we'll have the time, so let us get in line

Another town another bed, another thing to go
By now I learned to take it cool, but I don't wanna know

My head is empty, all the stories that I've known I've told
The situation I escaped from, now it looks like gold

Anyway and anyhow we did it, it was good
But now I take the time to think 'bout everything I should

'Cause after this I'm gone, the show is done
No other town or bed that lies ahead
I'll go home to what I know
I'll go home, home to you

By the time that you think 'bout it twice no spotlight makes you stay
By the time that you feel you don't know, you have to go

The plane is ready in my head, so many things to do
A few more hours till it's over I reach out for you

A kind of peace inside is growing, thinking 'bout the shows
Until the next time I'll be so much better, yes I know

Now this is it I'm gone, the show is done
No other town or bed that lies ahead
I'll go home to what I know
I'll go home, home to you

I'll go home...

9. A Little Time

[From Helloween's Keeper Of The Seventh Keys. Part I (1987)]

Higher
It's what I expect from my life
It's like a wire
That holds me back down to the ground

Oh, I hear you say
"That is the way of the world"
No, hear what I say
"I wanna do so much in my way"
Higher
I've set my limits and bounds
There's a fire
It's burning so hot in my head

Oh, I hear you say
"That is the way of the world"
No, hear what I say
"I wanna do so much in my way"

We got
A little time to build up our lives
A little time to make up our minds
A little time to fill up our dreams
A little time, time

We got
A little time to build up our lives
A little time to make up our minds
A little time to fill up our dreams
A little time, time

10. When The Sinner

[From Helloween's Chameleon (1993)]

Now it's time - to shake it all up, to be free,
Now it's time - to make us some room to let us be.
Oh, it feels so bad, yes, if fells so bad,
When everything good looks so bad,
When everything right goes so wrong.

I am up - to break it all down what's in my way,
I won't stop until I am where I'm going to stay.
No one holds me back, no, no one holds me back,
Don't wanna be what I am not,
But it's gotta be myself who breaks my neck.

I look here and you look there, I know it's got to be somewhere,
(Over my head - look over my head)
We look around and search around and walk around and hear around
(And you won't see no halo)
We keep on looking 'til we know what for.
If you don't know it,I don't know it, we don't know it, who will know it?
(It's driving me mad)
All of us don't know what we should know, maybe one day we'll know,
(I must hold it back inside)
But anyway we've got to make a stop.

When the sinner searches sin - it's all of us,
When we finally search inside - it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it - who must pay?
All I've ever done - I've done for you!

In my mind - the battle goes on 'til I give up,
Will we find - the key of life we oncehave dropped?
Do you really care? - Tell me you really care!
You may find Mr. Blane, but the guilt of life burns everywhere.

Give me light to see my inside, give me light to see my sin,
(Over my head - look over my head)
I'd never do what I regret, I've never done anything bad,
(And you won't see no halo)
You must be joking when you point at me.
Hey! Don't you blame me! Don't you touch me!
Won't you ever leave me be? I wanna live! Don't wanna think!
(It's driving me mad)
Why should I give what I can drink?
(I must hold it back inside)

When the sinner searches sin - it's all of us,
When we finally search inside - it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it - who must pay?
All I've ever done - I've done for you!

Pain - I feel inside - it's such a Shame.
No one fights fair but who's to Blame?
Might be the game of life but it ain't over.
Now! I walk my way firm any
Now! My conscience speaks andthere are Doubts!
But nothing's sure in life and it ain't over. Now!

I look here and you look there, I know it's got to be somewhere,
(Over my head - look over my head)
We look around and search around and walk around and hear around
(And you won't see no halo)
We keep on looking 'til we know what for.
If you don't know it,I don't know it, we don't know it, who will know it?
(It's driving me mad)
All of us don't know what we should know, maybe one day we'll know,
(I must hold it back inside)
But anyway we've got to make a stop.

When the sinner searches sin - it's all of us,
When we finally search inside - it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it - who must pay?
All I've ever done - I've done for you! ......

11. Different Ways

You're in love!
What are you sad about?
Talking 'bout love!
What do you cry so loud?
If that is love? Just let it show!

Now you're here!
It's what you were longing for
Everywhere
They search for that open door
To some kind of love - somewhere

And it all comes down to learn to let go again
When it all goes down - learn to let go!
And if you don't mind, we walk ahead
That's all I now know!

It's not hard
If you really mean it!
You're drifting apart
You just don't believe it
When it all starts - that's when we know

And it all comes down to learn to let go again
When it all goes down - learn to let go!
And if you don't mind, we walk ahead
That's all I now know!
That's all I now know!
