I DON'T KNOW
People look to me and say *
Is the end near,when is the final day
What's the future of mankind
How do I know'I got left behind.
Everyone goes through changes *
Looking to find the truth
Don't look at me for answers
Don't ask me - I don't know.
How am I supposed to know
Hidden meanings that will never show
Fools and prophets from the past
Life's a stage and we're all in the cast.
Ya gotta believe in someone asking me
who is right
Asking me who to follow'don't ask me,
I don't know.
I don't know (3).
Nobody ever told me I found out for myself
Ya gotta believe in foolish miracles
It's not how you play the game
It's if you win or lose you can choose
Don't confuse win or lose,it's up to you
It's up to you (3).
Repeat *
CRAZY TRAIN
Crazy,but thats how it goes
Million of people living as foes
Maybe it's not to late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate.
Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.
I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role.
Mental wpounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.
M8: I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words
Yeah-h!
Heirs of a cold war
that's what we've become
Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb
Crazy,I just cannot bear
I'm living with someting that just isn't fair.
Mental wounds not healing
Who and whats to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.
GOODBYE TO ROMANCE
Yestsrday has been and gone
Tomorrow will find the sun will it rain
Everybody's having fun except me
I'm the only one
I live in shame
Chorus: I said goodbye to romance
Goodbye to friends
Goodbye to all the past
I guess that we'll meet in the end
I've been the King,I've been the clown,
Still broken wings can't hold me down
I'm free again
The jester with a broken crown
It won't be me this time around
to live in vain.
Chorus:
M8: And I'm feel the time is right
although I know
That you just might say to me
What ya gonna do (2)
'Couse I have to take this change
Goodbye to friends and to romance
And to all of you (2)
Chorus:
And the weathers looking fine and
I think the sun will shine again
And I feel I've cleared my mind
all the past is left behind again.
Chorus:
DEE
(instrumental)
SUICIDE SOLUTION
Wine is fine but whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drown your sorrows
Then it floods away tomorrows.
Evil thoghts and evil doings
Cold,along you hang in ruins
Thought that you'd escape the reaper
You can't escape the Master Keeper.
'Cause you feel life's unreal
and you're living a lie.
Such a shame who's to blame
and you're wondering why.
Then you ask from your cask
is there life after birth?
What you sow can mean Hell on this earth?
Now you live inside a bottle
The reaper's travelling at full throttle
It's catching you but you don't see
The reaper is you and the reaper is me.
Breaking laws,knocking doors
But there's no one at home
Made your bed,rest your head
But you lie there and moan
Where to hide,Suicide is the only way out
Don't you know what it's really about
Repeat 1st verse
MR.CROWLEY
Mr.Crowley,what went on in your head
Mr.Crowley,did you talk with the dead
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all the people with magic
You waited on Satan's call.
Mr.Charming,did you think you were pure
Mr.Alarming,in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred
manifest on this earth
Conceived in the eye of a secret
And they scattered the afterbirth
Mr.Crowley,won't you ride my white horse
Mr.Crowley,it's symbolic of course
Approaching a time that is classic
I hear maidens call
Approaching a time that is drastic
Standing with their backs to the wall.
Epilogue
Was it polemically sent
I wanna know what you meant
I wanna know
I wanna know what you meant.
NO BONE MUVIES
Silver screen such a disgrace
I couldn't took her straight in the face
A blue addiction I live in disgust
Degradation I'm being eaten by lust.
Chorus: No bone movies (3)
Inspiration that's blue and uncut
Can't kick the habit obsession of smut
Voyeur straining in love with his hand
A poison passion a pulsating gland
Chorus:
Flaps
I shouldn't do it the guilt tells me why
I just can't stop it I try and try
X rated demon that lives in my head
Hungry for bodge and he wants to be fed.
Chorus:
REVELATION (MOTHER EARTH)
Mother please forgive them
For they know not what they do
Looking back in history's books
It seems it's nothing new
Oh! Let my mother live.
Heaven is for heroes
And hell is full of fools
Stupidity,no will to live
They're breaking God's own rules
Please let my mother live
Father,of all creation
I think we're all going wrong
The course they're talking
Seems to be breaking
And it won't take too long
Children of the future
Watching empires fall
Madness the cup they drink from
Self destruction the toll.
I had a vision,I saw the world burn
And the seas had turn red
The sun had fallen,the final curtain
In the land of the dead.
Mother,please show the children
Before it's too late
To fight each other,there's no one winning
We must fight all the hate.
STEAL AWAY (THE NIGHT)
Now I feel the time is right
Love will flow like wine tonight
Give your love and it will come to you
If you feel that you and me
Could escape and hold the key
To a paradise that's true and free
Chorus: Steal away (2)
Steal away - the night.
Now I met your honesty
You are here and I am free
Broken chains have fallen all around.
Point my finger at the fools
Broken chains and broken rules
Let it be rebellion rules tonight
Chorus:
Can it be a dream come true
Now that I am here with you
Tearful eyes of joy is something new
Runaway with me tonight
Dream the dream,light the light
Happiness is what you give to me
Chorus:
