RAGE LYRICS

1. Bury All Life

[Music: P. Wagner, C. Efthimiadis, M. Schmidt/Lyrics: P. Wagner]

I won't go where you've gone
'cause it showed that it does not work.
If you stay where you are then you will bite the dust.
And I know what I know
I believe what my eyes can tell -
you're no longer so sure
that you've done it right.

Why did you what you've done?
All that's left is you've lost our trust.
All the people believe not a word that you say.
And you think you're so clever
that it makes you a better man
but for real you just live on the cost of us all.

Bastard, you bastard, stay where you are!
I don't believe you a word.

Lies are a weapon that kills from inside.
If there's no change you'll bury all life.
You steal from us all what we need to survive
looks like soon you will bury all life.

Open your eyes and see there's no way you can turn it back
when you sell what's not yours when you rape mother earth.
Now start making an end
a beginning to stop that waste.
Do you really believe
you could own all this land?

Bastard, you bastard, get outta my way!
I don't believe you a word.

Lies are a weapon that kills from inside.
If there's no change you'll bury all life
You steal from the world what it needs to survive
Looks like soon you will bury all life.
Looks like soon you will bury all life.
Looks like we are not worried that soon you will bury all life!

2. On The Edge

[Music: P. Wagner/Lyrics: P. Wagner]

They came along last night
I knew again there was no end in sight.
We all had too much.
We needed a break to let it out our guts.

So we turned it on to its highest point
shot far over the line when its fun
we dropped out on the edge stumbling on the edge

Set the mind afire
let the engine run overpowered
'n'break the bonds of sleep
feed the overdose with all to keep

And we turned it on to its highest point
shot far over the line when it's fun
we dropped out on the edge
stumbling on the edge

One the edge when there's no point to go further
there's no way to turn the steerwheel 'round.
What else left then to take it as a man
accept the final rest for now
and wait for the return.

3. I Want You

[Music: P. Wagner, C. Efthimiadis, M. Schmidt/Lyrics: P. Wagner]

I've seen you with your mummy yesterday
you waved for me but then you couldn't stay.
Since then I've got this picture in my mind
it shows you in panties from behind.

I want to your mummy from your side

I want you, you're just the kind for me
I want you, you bring me up indeed

Don't leave me here alone, come over now.
I know you're kinda young but well grown out.
So what about a little here and now?
Yeah right, so what? Not yet, you know!

If mummy could see you now at my side...

I want you, you're just the kind for me
I want you, you bring me up indeed

4. (Those, Who Got) Nothing To Lose

[Music: P. Wagner, M. Schmidt/Lyrics: P. Wagner]

A simple man from a no - wonderland
where you bury your dreams at birth.
He took a heart, cause he couldn't believe
that there's no better place on earth

Eastern man meets western land
holding his life in his hands
it is all over for those, who got nothing to lose

All of his life he had struggled for free
starving the rest of the time
without a dime and with no human rights
in a society built up on crime

and now eastern man meets western land
holding his life in his hands
what can the world do with
those, who got nothing to lose

Here he is, but what now?
Left outside, unwanted

5. Last Goodbye

[Music: P. Wagner/Lyrics: P. Wagner]

They say we'll have war
for peace it shall be too late
I'm a good fighter and I'm
not a friend of debates
I'm leaving, I'm leaving you

Little girl in the west
your daddy's in the east
mother's tears made pictures wet
turning sleepless in her bed.
He's leaving, he's leaving now

It's too late
too late to turn around, your last goodbye

Fighting the aggressor back
right is on your side
little girl in the cast
the system filled her head with lies
do I care if she's alive
or if she dies for my victory?
As long as I'm a TV-star
my conscience wouldn't go so far
She's leaving, she's leaving life.
Some say we fight against ourselves
their weapons made by our hands
if it's sure I've lost already
now I hear my wife, she's calling
don't leave me, don't leave me now

It's too late.
Too late to turn around, your last goodbye
Goodbye...

"I want to know where you are
please let me know where you are!"

Too late to turn around...
