Dead On 04:28
Watch her! She is living life to the fullest No fear! This is what appears to me My past life! Brutally exposed, she's dead on Dead on! Just decided, I gotta change! Explain! Why it turned out as it did All my gathered things, my present state - result of my constant hidin' and lyin' Don't wanna be an antihero It had a reason Shall not be punished for treason Take the air, it's feelin' like I have never tasted life Cloudy skies - rays of light Always felt it rains without a reason Tried to fight it, failed and cursed the clouds Never thought about the final outcome It was life, I realize now I take the air, it's feelin' like I have never tasted life Standing in the rain, upright Wondering how it feels inside The drops roll down my face but I can't stop to gaze Awaitin', smilin', cryin' No more shame and no more hidin' Rays of light

I know my way - to you it may seem strange So come and bash me - but it will make no change All your grudge and hatred - will do no harm to me Makes my will stronger - so I shall thank thee Having a dream - fightin' to live it You're on this world for just one time Being despised - for what you believe in Carry on 'til your goal's in sight Don't give a shit and fight! Don't give a shit! I'll keep on fighting - 'til I reach the top Your hate's just envy - cause your life's a flop But let me tell you one thing - listen close so you hear clear Nothing you say can bring me down - so stop tryin' to fan fear Living your dream - you fought to achieve it You made the best out of your life Despite all obstacles - you were able to reach it So always remember not to give a shit, to keep going on and fight!

Tomorrow 05:48
Hey! Look at her! Here she comes Playin' with hungry eyes She don't know She don't know what she do! There he stands And there he woos! He don't give a damn 'bout her He's the one - dead sure - right! Watch the show every night Take a break and come with me A kiss for tonite and tomorrow you'll be Mine! Tomorrow I'll take you home! For the night Tonight It's alright! But tonight You gotta sleep alone! Wham! New one walkin' in Sudden king of her night time world And the final curtain falls! He breaks but he ain't sure if his heart is breakin' too The night is long as he waits for tomorrow Years went by Time stood still A Prisoner not let go of his freedom A kiss once saved the night It saved the night and nothing more Long is the night Long way to go 'til tomorrow!

Demon 06:03
I'm lost - in the dark Heavy heart Do I have a guard Cold - feel his breath Soaked with sweat Shivers down my neck Evil - stay away I start to pray Please stay away When I last met him He said loud and grinnin' "I'm part of you I'll show you what to do" He's grabbin' from behind I turn around Of such an evil kind I'm gonna lose my mind Everytime I face him blood is rushin' - sweaty, pale skin Without lookin' back I clench my teeth and go ahead When it was all over the load I carried on my shoulder dropped and he was smilin' I tell you that he wasn't lyin' He's grabbin' from behind I look around Such an evil smile Don't wanna lose my mind I tried to push him to the side Head shakin' from behind

26a 05:00
Night out on the town again This time gonna draw the line under that pining away with grief Just one time before he leave "Some things will never change" He's so damn sure this time will hurt again "Don't you dare to fool yourself now" He instead make his way to where a lonley heart can stay Will find love as long he pay Ain't no goin' astray No more pain No more runnin' round And no more sweet talk for a tear No more solitude They do sell love where leads his way Midtown night 26a Tryin' so hard again This time it will work out for him Another try - all hopes deceived Just another face that leaves Thinkin' gets hard again Booze an' nicotine strain runnin' through his brain Only one way out! Gone astray! Just one step Right behind the door His feet they stop, his heart starts draggin' him away They don't sell love - it's not his way-mid-night-town 26a!

Finish Line 05:12
We raise a glass take our nips and "Won't you tell me why you're lookin' so sad?" "Man", he said "I'm sacrificing everything I'm dyin' for success but I'm afraid My time is tickin' away And I ain't got nothin' yet Look at my face My eyes are red Got a bangin' head and still no praise" Only took a minute The glass is dead His eyes look rigid "You want another shot?" - I'm asking "Got no time for jokes..." - I'm laughin' He's standin up - we couldn't really talk Phone's ringin' while he checks the clock "I gotta go" he said "Calls to make and steps to take" As he's leaving one thought is on my mind: "Why should one drink that fast if he wanna get a taste of the wine?" They say that you should know the Finish Line Do it while there's time To cross the line As I'm leavin' his words ring in my ear Sun sets - I can see it clear There's a Finish Line Just one time For men of any kind Of any mind They say that you should know the Finish Line

Close to midnight The city's all loud Car lights are flashing by Blinding his eyes Walking the streets His mind wanders off Showing him what could have been He starts to dream Marching on through the dark On their own His feet they move Leading him to the place where his life took its toll That one day took his sanity Memories stabbing his brain Make him feel the pain Everyday His life burns away He can't see no chance to survive Torn apart while alive His world's laid to waste Torn down Living feels like dying Life is living death to him He wanna cease to be Ending it all Why should he carry on Every reason's lost it seems Again he sinks into a dream And his mind starts to fly away To a place where the good still exists The faces he's seeing there make his heart lighten up And now To his eyes They all are real They were created in his head So his wounds could now heal That one day took his sanity People dreamed up by his brain So he'd be free from the pain And live on With his reason gone It was his only chance to survive He was torn apart while alive

Writhe - writhing in the dark Cold sweat on my skin Memories They're haunting me again Thought I've left all those things behind me Out - out into the dark Gonna blow 'em away Turn on the lights Rev up and here I go Burning wheels Vaporizing my brain Goin' faster Shift up another gear Oh yeah - and now - I wonder Why ain't I givin' a damn Further on through the night And I'll make things right for me Further on through the night Try to get rid of! Things - I have said and done Things I presumed dead revived in my head Harassing and unrequited love Why is that all I now can think of Tryin' too hard Seems I'm just not fast enough I'm losing my mind as city lights rush by They keep hunting me like hound dogs on my heels No way to escape And I won't keep runnin' anymore Further on through the night Gonna beat 'em down!

Rainy night Taxi drivin' My mind's hazy like those passing neon lights Hear 'em talk but I'm just so far away and I feel some kinda fear Will it be like it's always been My heavy feet know I've been down that road before There you are and you're walkin' right my way And I'd like to Ask you if you feel the same Know if it's just the old game Going through all of this again Can't bring myself to take your hand in mine Standin' still I walk towards the end The end of this night Neon light Shinin' brightly Your smile Somehow your words push fear away Now I look into your eyes And I konw my chance has come at last I take your hand Our lips touch And you take my past away And I know the nights don't last But this one will Darkness turned to light Feels like the end of a fight Curing the wounds time could not heal I don't want this night to end And wake up alone again I wanna stay forever here Tumblin' through this streetlight dream with you

about
