SINNER LYRICS

1. A Question Of Honour

[Sinner, Naumann]

I ... I've seen it all before
Heading north, the parole
I sit here and watch it all comes down
A mile away from hell
Back in a foreign land
But will tomorrow ever come

[Chorus 1:]
No regrets, no reason why
Release me, I'm dying

[Chorus 2:]
We stood side by side, everybody's asking why
We had a dream ... it ended in screams
They sold us ... a question of honour

A flash of a shotgun blast ... listens the dark
Dan dies in a pool of blood
A jet's coming close ... as gas hits my nose
All the prayers came too late

[Chorus 1 & 2]

The chance has fallen but I'm still awake
My chances at zero (at zero, zero, zero...)
Breath for the last time, a help out of reach
No times for heroes (heroes, heroes...)

[Chorus 1 & 2]
[Chorus 2]

2. Some Truth (Has Better Left Unknown)

[Sinner]

Remember times we're acting wild
Our pulse was beating tight
We have an aim, we could believe
You exposed a brand new side
You're only live to criticize
I have to face reality

The innocence's gone
Your roses ... faded for too long

[Chorus 1:]
Some truth has better left unknown
Some dreams will never die
Two hearts will be facing the truth
Beating to survive
A secret to keep [2]

The single touch was like a spark
And it opened up my heart...
That there are some other ways
I have to leave this twisted road...
For reasons better left untold
As the naked truth comes walking in

Well, my soul is caged
Sweet devil behind a pretty face

[Chorus]

The single touch was like a spark
And it opened up my heart...
That there are some other ways

The innocence's gone
Your roses ... faded for too long

[Chorus 2:]
Some truth has better left unknown
Some dreams will never die
Two hearts will be facing the truth
Beating to survive

[Chorus 2]

Some truth has better left unknown [2]

3. The Nature Of Evil

[Sinner, Beyrodt]

[Chorus 1:]
Here I am, bounded in blood
No escape 'til the darkness will fall
I hear them scream, hear them cry
Slaves and shadows ... caged in this twilight

[Chorus 2:]
Somewhere inside, you will hear this sound
You will understand what turns me inside out

[Chorus 3:]
Will you hear me calling
You will fear the nature of evil
Will you see me screaming
You will fear the nature of evil

Will you hear me calling
Ooh oh
The nature of evil

In the room, cold as a grave
I pray for rescue but no one cares
Exposed the truth, raised up from the dead
This curse has left a part in my head

I'm out here alone ... in the darkest wasteland
In deepest trouble, a stranded man

[Chorus 3]

Baby hear me calling
The nature of evil

[Chorus 1 & 2]

Yes, I'm out in this wasteland...
And I'm facing the truth
A stranded soul prays for mercy
But God don't wanna know

[Chorus 3]

Will you hear me calling
Ooh yeah
The nature of evil

Here I am, bounded in blood
No escape 'til the darkness will fall

The nature of evil

4. Calm Before The Storm

[Sinner]

My garden of eden is burning down in flames
I lost my immagination here in shadowland
There ain't no more sunshine, ain't no more smiles
My emotions are gone, only loneliness inside

[Chorus 1:]
I know that you've sold your own destiny
I know that I'll close the book of your dreams

[Chorus 2:]
I'm walking on fire
There's no more desire
And it was calm before the storm
I'm walking on fire
I didn't wanna hurt you ... anymore
It was calm before the storm

I took the train to destination unknown
My mind was black and my heart turns to stone
As the river stopped flowing I felt chaos in my head
So many ways to leave you, no time for regrets

[Chorus 1 & 2]

I'm walking on fire
There's no more desire
And it was calm before the storm
I'm walking on fire
I didn't wanna hurt you ... anymore

[Chorus 2]

5. Justice From Hell

[Sinner, Naumann]

Every night...
I woke up on the dark side, tangled in lies
Chasing dreams, the night's getting colder
You're not in sight

[Chorus 1:]
I don't want you, I don't need you
I don't care for you
You want to hurt me, wanna see me bleeding
I'm still alive

[Chorus 2:]
One life, one chance
You live just for the moment
One life, one chance
Even if heaven falls ... I'm living with the justice from hell

I believe ... this message's from you
You call me king of fools
Justice is gone ... and justice is done
Accept my rules

[Chorus 1 & 2]

I don't want you, I don't need you
I don't care for you
You want to hurt me, wanna see me bleeding
I'm...

One life, one chance
You live just for the moment
One life, one chance
Even if heaven falls...

[Chorus]

From hell

6. Rising

[Rossler, Sinner, Beyrodt]
[Instrumental]

7. Devil's River

[Sinner, Naumann]

I'm diving deep in devil's river
I will find out if this curse is true
About the storyteller's nightmare
All these visions about youth
Don't expect any mercy ... like Mary who died
As the water took her ... to the other side

[Chorus:]
The world could be saved ... with plessure and pain
Don't have tears, don't shiver
Come to me to devil's river
Come to me [2]

I watched the trial of the river
Saw the deadly seven sins
A conversation with Jesus
Who used needles and pins
See the news on TV, tell us the end is near
Into the water we'll dive, to the other side

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Come to me to ... devil's river
Ooh
Come to me

You'll feel the pleasure and pain
Ooh
In devil's river

8. Searching For Your Love

[Sinner]

I'm trapped in your shadow
Do anything you want
We're alone
Your diamond eyes ... look so innocent
They're turning me to stone

[Chorus 1:]
Throw off these chains, they're holding me back
I'm crying in the rain again
There's a fire in me ... burning up again
There is no escape for me

[Chorus 2:]
Searching for your love [3]
The magic in your eyes
Searching for your love [3]
I'm hypnotized again

All I want is just to hold you, I can't take breath
At the edge of darkness ... we sailed over heartaches
One step into the night

A new day, a new night
But nothing's ever changing
I never thought that I'd be touching you
I'm in this much too deep

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1 & 2]

Yes, I'm searching for love
No no

9. Faith And Convinction

[Sinner, Naumann]

The world starts to shiver, my brain starts to shake
A resolution comes crashing ... from somewhere outta space
A voice in my head, a gun starts to fire
I see the world shakin' stirs, egomaniac desires

[Chorus 1:]
First I wonder their fears
Then I saw it real

[Chorus 2:]
Thunder crashes, lightning strikes
Do I dare or do I fight
Where's the wisdom, where's the truth
In faith and convinction

I raise my eyes, clouds burning black
Through a nuclear fire, the prophecy's back

[Chorus 1 & 2]

The world starts to shiver, my brain starts to shake

[Chorus 1]

Yes, first I wonder their fears
Then I saw it real

[Chorus 2 (2)]

Faith and conviction

10. Walk On The Dark Side

[Sinner, Beyrodt]

You will fall
Eye to eye see the cross in the church and it hurts you
A child found dead, raped and abused
I will hear the words of a priest about god's will
But I'll never understand the reason for

The clock stop ticking
The memory unchanged

[Chorus 1:]
The hell waits
A look at the electric chair
Destiny, the edge of disaster
Here and now, let him go forever now
He will fall, a walk on the dark side

Death calls
Another father will shock the nation
His lawyer's words are turning into dust
The sunrise's so black and the mind is confused
His moves are driven by a loathing lust

[Chorus 2:]
The look of a mother
The rage of his brother

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2 & 1]

The hell waits
He will fall

11. Trust No One

[Sinner]

I'm lost in life, out of this broken dream
No hope into future ... at the edge of insanity
Tonight ... nothing is what it seems
This scene replays
You're living with mortal fears

[Chorus 1:]
There are no sorrow for your desperately gain
Nothing left, all vengeance's in vain

[Chorus 2:]
Nothing left when I'm gone
We've been together for much too long
Call it pain ... and I'll never trust no one
Trust no one

Betrayed by yours
How could this happen here
We lied to each other ... in your final hour
Just survive
You noticed what went wrong
When all hell breaks lose ... you will find me gone

[Chorus 1 & 2]

Nothing left when I'm gone
We've been together for much too long
Call it pain ... and I'll never trust no one

[Chorus 2]

Trust no one

12. The Sun Goes Down

[Phillip Lynott, Darren Wharton]
[from Thin Lizzy "Thunder And Lightning" (1983)]

There is a demon ... in all of us...
Whose soul ... belongs to hell
Sent here ... to redeem us
She knows that all too well

He comes and goes [2]
She knows it all to well
But when all is said and done
The sun goes down [4]

She tries her best ... to leave him
But she's still captured ... by his spell
She knows now ... she must decieve him
He knows it all too well

[Chorus:]
She comes and goes [2]
He knows it all too well
But when all is said and done
The sun goes down [4]

[Chorus]

The sun goes down
She tries her best to decieve him
The sun goes down [2]

13. Twisted Mind

[Sinner, Beyrodt]
[Japanese bonus track]

It's the end of the road, I'm counting every minute
The tactics of law and a crime I've been done
Stranded in a dead end town
When the hammer of justice is crushing down

[Chorus:]
Nothing is real - when my twisted mind is broken
Defending the dream - when my twisted mind is broken

The argue for rights and caged me in a prison cell
Human understanding in a holy hell
I'm crucified my messiah wannabes
There're only dead or alive and I broke the secret seal

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

What's wrong or right - I will pay for my past life
Nothing is real - when my twisted mind is broken
Nothing is real
Oh yeah
