SHAKRA LYRICS

1. Make Your Day

[Music: Muster, Blunier & Fox, lyrics: Fox]

I’m a man who’s restless
Don’t know any frontiers
I live my life, no changes
And break through all barriers

Don’t earn a million dollars
But travel ‘round the world
Your envy keeps distracting you
From you daily routine

Say, how else can I make your day?
Any more bills I have to pay?
What else do you want me to say?
Why do you bother me this way?
Say, how else can I make your day?

You always try to force me
To live my life like you
Thinking it’s unjust for me
To do the things I do

Sure, you’re in a raw deal
You think it is quiet fair
To denounce me anyway you can
To pester me this way

You’ll see it’s no solution
To find your luck through me
‘Cause I am not salvation
I just live my life free

Sure, you’re in a raw deal
You think it is quiet fair
To denounce me anyway you can
To pester me this way

2. Inferno

[Music: Blunier & Fox, lyrics: Fox]

I crossed the border, I saw the light
I tried to reach it but then I failed
I have to stay here to pay my dues
Am I forgotten and lost in a ruse?

Why can’t you feel me?
I am next to you!
Why can’t you feel me?
I am touching you!

Take my hand
Show me the Promised Land
Let me take a look
But don’t let me lose ground
Take my hand
Show me the Promised Land
Just a visitor
And not as resident of Inferno

The penitent road I had to cross
Facing all my sins, my whole life’s loss
No peace of heaven, just god damned heat
Heart-piercing cries spread the darkest seed

3. The One

[Music: Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

Just one of these lonely nights
I’m lying on my bed
Sleep seems so far away
My thoughts are in a fight

I get up for a little drink
It may just help a bit
Your smile’s burned into my mind
It’s written in ink

Could it be that you won’t see me?
Could it be that you just play an evil game?

I wanna be the one
Just be the number one
I swear I’ll be the one who cares
I wanna be the one
Not just another one
I swear I’ll be the one who cares

Now I seem to lose my mind
I’m up to give a call
Don’t know if it’s wrong or right
But my love makes me blind

I hang up, couldn’t say a thing
Seems like I lost my voice
There’s so much I would like to say
My heart is on a string

Could it be that you won’t see me?
Could it be that you just play an evil game?

4. Playing With Fire

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

Every time I see you
I can’t take my eyes off you
Wishing I could touch your pale, cool skin

I try to be your number one
But you don’t mention me
I’d grab you every star above
Be what you want to be

You’re playing with fire
You’re all I desire
Here I am and there’s no need to pretend
You’re playing with fire
You’re all I desire
Here I am and there’s no need to pretend

You tell me that you’d like me
That you might give it a try
But your favorite game is playing cat and mouse

You once lit my fire
You’re all I admire, baby, baby
Come and feel my desire
Before I break down and go insane

5. Dance With Madness

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

Deep in the night I hear a scream
But no one it seems is near
Slowly I try to face my thoughts
Hope I didn’t wake up in a dream

I won’t keep bogging down into dullness
I’m stuck between realities
Wanna hold on to my dance with madness and the fear

Thousands of tongues blow up my head
Convincing me of different truths
Amazed and confused it dawns on me
This must be reality!

We are all just like puppets of society
Even if we think we’ll win
Somebody else pulls the strings

6. Love Will Find A Way

[Music: Muster, Blunier & Fox, lyrics: Fox]

Walking down this road I’ve never been before
It’s so hard to realize the painful truth
And everything around us looks unreal to me

But now my time has come
Please, tell me that I’m wrong
My love will give you comfort
Make you strong

I don’t wanna live forever
I just wanna star another day
And lay here near beside you
‘Cause you and me belong together
Love is gonna find another way
I’ll never be without you

All those hopes and plans that grew along our way
Will always be a never-ending dream
And I wish I’d had the time to tell you how I feel

But when the lights go out
Your faith is all I have
Forever to your heart I will belong

Remember how it used to be when we had just sunny weather
Every little thing seemed possible
But even in the darkest times our hearts will stay together
‘Cause love will find a way, yes, love will find a way

7. Vertigo

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

It is a lonely rainy Sunday on Hicksville’s dirty streets
Only some transient, blurry shadows doing non-essential deeds
No one anticipates, the dire menace waits
Prowling for this sweet young thing
She isn’t able to resists them
As they entice her with these words

Come on and join the vertigo
I’m sure you’ll love the snow
It doesn’t matter what’s to come
Or what you’ve tried before

A lot of snow fell in the meantime and days are closing in
From time to time she would appear again
Straying, unshod, frail and thin
One day she disappeared
No single word was heard
She was never seen again
But if you listen very carefully
You can hear her softly sing

8. The Conquest

[Music: Muster, Blunier & Fox, lyrics: Fox]

Let me tell you a true story
‘Bout the so called human race
How it’s seeking for a new and better world
Full of hope and without fear of loss, exodiel tendency
Just set the sails and control unknown sea

But they will never reach a shore
Not knowing what they’re looking for

Many have gone away for summer
Many have gone away forever
Many have gone away for summer
Many have gone away forever

We only think about the bad things
Don’t enjoy the real good things
We are chasing our tails until we die
Some people call it irony and others destiny
Considering too long, till it’s too late

But they will never reach a shore
Not knowing what they’re looking for

9. Higher Love

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

Now is the time when I have to figure out
Imaginary protection should fill us with pride

You punish the innocent
Your rage is mad
I can hardly have faith in you

I just can’t make you out above
Anymore
Where is your so-called higher love?
We need more

Every day I could cover up my eyes
Nothing but cruelty, injustice and evil lies

Born pure, we are spoilt by guilt and grow to waste
And that’s supposed to make us feel safe

Why can’t you just send a sign of assurance?
If you are so damned almighty, take a glance
We long for a little gesture if there’s still a chance

10. Cardiophobia

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox]

Comfortless pressure, ants in my veins
Pain’s spreading slowly to my neck and my arms
I’m getting nervous, breaking out in cold sweat
Is this the end or just a panic attack?

It’s just a nasty dream
Delusion screws me
Nothing is like it seems
Nonetheless it could be
Will I ever live carefree?
Without fear of my death
It’s just a nasty dream
Until it comes true

In fact we’re all ill, but we don’t know it yet
Cowed by media and avaricious meds
Don’t wanna think about my final breath
Enjoy my life without a side effect

11. Look At Me

[Music: Muster & Blunier, lyrics: Fox & Muster]

You stand there in front of me
To join our show, your destiny
You think the man you see lives how you could be

You see my life, it’s full of fun
Touring the world, no need to run
Your childhood dreams come true
However, not for you

Look at me now when I’m lying here
Look at me now when I fight the fear
Look at me now while I’m crying
Am I the man you know?
Look at me now, I am near the edge
Look at me now, no one gives a badge
Look at me now, I am trying
Trying to be like you

My picture smiles on TV screens
And even on the magazines
You want to turn back time
But don’t know what it means

I treat the girls out you’d like to meet
I break the habit, my world, my lead
Someday I will reach the end of Famous-Street

I’m just a part of what your mind is longing for
I’m things you do desire and then even more
Our ways are different ways
We chose them long before
But we both know they’ll carry on
‘Cause it’s the best for everyone

12. The Other Side

[Music: Muster, Blunier & Fox, lyrics: Fox]

Free but so constricted, analyzed self-control
Be good or an example for the crowd
You can take a look but don’t touch
You can feel but never taste
Don’t swallow, only tasting is allowed

‘Cause you are, yes you are, part of the master plan
And you are what you are if you strictly hold the line

Now take me to the other side and give me what I need
Now take me to the other side and make my life complete

Only born to pay for someone else’s intention
The first breath signs a lifelong resolution
You proclaim your situation but nobody ever cares
The system seems to work fine without you

13. Let ‘em Have It

[Bonus Track]

14. Acherons Way

[Music: Muster, lyrics: Fox]

Another ferry’s drifting slowly through the stream
Someday I will follow, someday I’ll be free
Silently the wind blows moving misty clouds
I wait until it’s darker, covered by a shroud

Another rainy day is passing by
Another restless day without a try
But tomorrow I will go
Tomorrow I will go away

Something seems uncertain and still it holds me back
Salvation’s calling, craving from somewhere in the dark

Another rainy day is passing by
Another restless day without a try
Another cry of agony vibrates through the night
But tomorrow I will go
Tomorrow I will go away

I’m still hanging around, think I have run aground
But I know I will have to pay my dues
And I hope that they will not refuse

My time has come for leaving
I’m taking my last course
And soon I’m gonna be there to fuse with a sacred force

No more rainy days are passing by
No more restless days without a try
No more cries of agony in the darkest night
Today I’ve gone away
Today I’ve finally gone away
