You passed the test, better than the rest
No one came close, I should've guessed
It's easy when you make the rules
Take what you get, til there's nothing left
Then take some more with no regret
It's all for you
Now time has passed and you've learned fast
The only rule is don't come last
And never ever take the blame
Live with no shame, it's all a game
And infamy's as good as fame
It's all the same
Say you will be sorry when it all comes crashing down
You always say tomorrow, tomorrow
Now the earth is shaking and you still make not a sound
I guess it's true, tomorrow, it never comes
No time to rest, when you're the best
No words to say how I detest
The way you never seem to lose
Before you go, think you should know
That I'm aware it's all a show
You can't let go
I know, you're only taking what you think you've earned
You'd torch the world to watch it burn

Black Magic

He said sit down
So I can tell you a story
About the wolf in sheep’s clothing
It’s one you should know well
Just biding time with puppy eyes
Until she saw the current shifting
That’s when she threw off her disguise
The corner came
So fast it turned me upside down
For everyone to gawk at
Brick walls anesthetize my brain
Oh, Little Bo Peep she went to sleep
And I was tapping on her window pane
Is just another word for life
Let’s get this party started
Can you see the writing on the wall
Your time is up
Can’t get enough can’t get enough
Lost your control like black magic
Fairy tales gone dark
Can’t get enough can’t get enough
Just raise the stakes
And build the tower higher
A stayer doesn’t mean a buyer
Too bad the foundations burnt down
Inner turmoil, clothes are soiled
Lips are locking, plans are foiled
She said it’s getting hot in here
Footsteps approach
The Reaper’s killing passion
While the Muse just writes requiem
The Man knows he beat both
So tread the line all of the time
Cos you don’t know who might be listening
May they choke on your last words

Falling down with all the lies I once knew
Soaring high above four walls I outgrew
I was hypnotised, blinded and pushed from the truth
Despairing jumped, but when I hit air I flew
Somewhere beyond the doors I found the truth
I’ve been searching so long I lost hope
But I’ve found it now, found out how
Seems so easy now I’m in the know
Cos I’ve found it now, found out how
How to be free
Locked eyes with the better man, I thought that is what I want to be
So caught up in the search I closed my eyes forgot how to see
I got down on my knees, let cry a desperate plea
But when I caught a glimpse, the only thing that I saw was me
Forget the outside, it’s nothing to me
Forget the outside, it’s how it should be
But it’s hard to make the change

Metamorphosis

She was off with the starting gun
And no one there could match her pace
Bathed in wine and seemingly divine
She worked the room with easy grace
Soon they gathered round
Like moths drawn to a naked flame
So I felt my thoughts unwind
When she turned and called out my name
Swinging hips and made for loving lips, she had it
If you know what I mean
I’ve got an itch to scratch and a taste for bad romance, she said it’s
Time to make a man out of you
Kiss of fire woke a wild desire
And I was lost in her embrace, when she
Sang to me in a voice so sweet
I lost track of time and space
Yeah, if you’d stared in her eyes
I know you’d be lost just the same
I couldn’t leave if I tried
So I tell you that I feel no shame
We may not get a better chance
We better take it while we can
We may only have tonight together
That’s just the way it goes
There ain’t no second chance so live while you can, she said it’s
Time to make a man out of you

Throwback
04:11
|

Baby, please don’t think I’m crazy
Please don’t try to save me
I’m never growing up
No rules, lyrics are not meaningful
Maybe if I scream you’ll
Never work it out
This is just a throwback now, I swear I’m getting better
This is just a throwback now, back to 1990
Soul juice helps me get my head loose
Helps me to get with you
Makes me better off
My my, you hit me like a drive by
Maybe we should get high
Find a different point of view

Say You Will

My friend lost his heart one day,
The girl's he tried to steal away.
He talks too much.
She knows what he’s trying to say,
Frightened, she dances away,
He can’t keep up so he says…
Sometimes it seems that what we’re searching for
Are nothing more than hollow dreams
And when the time comes for my final call
I won't wonder what could have been
I won't wonder what could have…
My friend, he caught her one day
And finally managed to say
You are my love
She said there’s too much to lose
He said it’s time now to choose
You might just roll the dice and
Say you will
They’ll never see it coming
Say you will
Two feet hit the ground running
Say you will
No second chance is coming
Say you will
Just take a chance or let it go

Speechless

My head is all a-spin,
I find it hard to think
Drifting in space
And I seem to change my mind
Each time I see your face
Too scared to choose
Afraid of what I’ll lose
Don’t know what to say
Until I lose myself in your embrace
Sometimes I find it hard to speak
The words don’t come
But now the dam’s begun to burst
You pick me up, spin me round
Now my feet can’t touch the ground
I only hope you’re here to stay
Your sudden smile dispels the cloud
And now my heart begins to pound
There’s only one thing I can say
I only hope you like this song
Here we are again staring at the end
A hard habit to break
And it messes up my head so bad
Don’t know what to say
Don’t try to rewind, don’t turn back time
Baby don’t erase
Let go surrender to the pull
Of the wave
Sometimes I find it hard to sleep,
It just won’t come
But now I know I’ll dream of you

The Other Side
04:03

See the man with the dangerous smile
Dressed to kill, yeah he’s in style
And he’ll pin you with his stare
See the girl with something to hide
Luscious lips drip velvet lies
Take a breath and he’ll be there
Now danger comes and he’s let loose again, a bullet from a gun
There’s nothing left for you so run
Don’t you know he’s working for the other side?
Keep turning, he’s learning
Don’t you know you’ll never make it out alive?
Keep running, he’s coming
Hear the sound of the screaming tires
It’s a race to stop the fire
And there’s no time to spare
Dark words race down the wire
Take him out, yeah gun for hire
For the flag that he wears
Now danger comes and he’s let loose again, you bet your number’s up
There’s nothing left for you so run
He’s the knife in the darkness, the thief in the night
While the nation sleeps he takes up their fight
He’s been beaten and broken, it’s the end of the line
Hanging from a thread, now it’s do or die

Noise
04:15
|

|
Sitting all alone he makes his plans for future days
Silent words are spilling from the page as he plays
Head up in the clouds is what they say
He says nothing at all, he just saves it away
Turn up the radio, ‘cause he’s not speaking
Dreamer boy, barely makes a noise
Trapped on the wrong side of a glass wall
Screamer boy, come on make some noise
Show them all the strength you’ve kept within
Cause you know you can win
Innocence comes easy when you say nothing at all
Harder is to keep respect whilst baring your soul
Screw them all and scream out come what may
Silence doesn’t mean that he’s got nothing to say
Turn up the radio, cause now he’s screaming

Memories

Looking through old photographs
I found a flower
Faded just like the memories
And I could swear I still smelled you
Sitting on the fresh green grass
Listening to the stream
It’s changed its course since then
But I could swear I still heard you
And somehow, time just rolls on
And it’s leaving me sitting in the haze of better days
Cos I can’t bear to just give up
On you
Maybe in the spring time
Down beside the old line
I will find my way back home to you
Bathing in the moonlight
Guarded by the fireflies
Whispering I’ll never forget you
Maybe in a year or two
I could walk that path
Without hearing your voice
But I know that’s not what I want
Cos when you came through the morning haze
Shining so bright
My heart was lit on fire
And I found my life in your eyes
And maybe I was dreaming
But if that’s the case then reality holds no love
Cos in your arms I felt alive
With you
Where are you?
