Лирика

1. Unsung Hero

All those years, I used to ring the death bell
Since my maker has come back for me,
I now stand here before you,
to tell you all straight reflections
from the life and times of the dead ringer"

You're hangin' on to your life
Trying so hard to understand
The reasons why you have no rights
You must listen to what they say
You can talk, but silently
Maybe soon they will tax your dreams

Rulers use all their powers to play with people's lives
You just wait for your break to get on this battle right
Alright!

Another dream is left behind
Still trying to understand
Why there's a damned cloud over your head
Somehow you have to make it change
The sun shines for everyone
But in the sky a storm arrives

Rulers with all their powers play with people's lives
You just wait for your break to get on this battle right

Unsung Hero,
Someday you will lead the new
Generation,
but please do not become like them!
No not like them!

They hold the power,
but it means nothing if they use it in the wrong way!

Still hangin' onto your life
Yet you begin to understand
What makes it that you have no rights
You feel like the world's gotta change,
But no one seems well prepared
Now's the time to achieve your hopes and dreams

Rulers had all the power and toyed with people's lives
You're making it the day you win this battle right

Unsung Hero
Soon they're gonna make you
Their brand new leader,
You gotta keep on trying
Unsung Hero,
Now that you are standing up
Front and center,
Be honest, be yourself
So new-found hero,
Today you sing the melody of truth
Keep going 'cause you've hit the right note!
You've hit the right note!

2. Holy Screen

Day after day you live in a dream
With your eyes fixed on the screen
Day after day you revere your channels
With your finger stuck on power

You say that you love nobody
'Cause the world's so cruel
You say that you need nobody
But many times you cry... you cry... you cry

Night after night you follow all their rules
You could buy the world from your room
But night after night you just cannot find sleep
Good for you that you've got "holy screen"

You say that you love nobody
'Cause the world's so cruel
You say that you need nobody
But many times you cry... you cry

When you're alone,
you watch the screen
When you're alone,
you'd like to scream

The screen is like a god to you
You may scream but no one will hear
Holy screen

Year after year you're alone with your dreams
Your eyes still stuck on the screen
Year after year you follow all their rules
But you cannot buy love from your room

Someday you'll have to love someone
Though the world is so cruel
Since you were young you've had no one
And so many times you cry... you cry

When you're alone,
you watch the screen
When you're alone,
you want to scream
When you're alone,
nobody'll hear
When you're alone,
may as well scream
Unholy screen

3. You Won't Live Eternally

Let me tell you this simple story
'Bout people who really love glory
Let me tell you that I am worried
'Cause not long ago they were just like me

I'm tellin' you

You won't live eternally
And your way won't get you free
So keep your feet right on the ground

They're being betrayers, they follow the wave
What happened to the children of the grave
We won't follow we'll save our courage
To do what we want with feelings and rage!

I'm tellin' you, I'm tellin' you

You won't live eternally
And your way won't get you free
So keep your feet right on the ground

You won't live eternally
And your way won't get you free
So keep your feet right on the ground

Let me tell you the end of the story
They sure look well but they might feel guilty
Let me confess that I'm still worried
That's why I'm just trying to stay the real me

I'm tellin' you, I'm tellin' you

You won't live eternally
And your way won't get you free
So keep your feet right on the ground

We won't live eternally
Yet there's hope for you and me
One day we'll all become as one
Become as one

4. The Clown

Now that they're all sound asleep
My Friend and I are going to meet
Since the day I was born no one would ever keep
Those promises that always sounded so sweet
There's no one in this world I can trust but you
Cause it's you I want, it's you I need
Only you, I do live for... Clown"

I could live without my mother
I could live without my father
But how can I live without my clown?
Often I ask him in my mirror
He always gives me the same answer
You cannot live without your clown

My mother treats me like a stranger
Since she got me this new mentor
But can I live without his guile?
Often he looks at me and whispers
If you want to we could go further
So stick with me I'll treat you nice

Oh they're always laughing at me
But my clown stands by me
When I'm scared and worried
He will comfort me

Hang on, we will reach for the sky
Keep on, we're about to fly

Ride on, we're getting way up high
Come on, trust me! We'll never die!

Yes I could live without me brother
I sure could live without my sister
But I just can't live without my clown

5. They Are Gone

He's rocking his chair
With nobody around him
He is in despair
Perhaps they've forgotten
So he waits with tears on his cheeks
Hoping they'll come see him for a while
Maybe they'll come... Will they all come?

He feels in the air
An angel around him
He'll pretend he's not there
Still hoping they'll come see him
Yet he has been fair with them
Why don't they come see him for a while
Maybe they're gone... Could they be gone?

He stands up off his chair
Though it's so hard for him
He's not ready to go yet
So the angel says to him
You have always been fair with them
You gotta follow me now and when they come
They'll say he's gone... Too late he's gone!

Why don't we get closer to the elders
Knowing time won't stand still for the reaper

So he stays there reliving his past
He stays there wondering why they won't come
He feels so forsaken!

Why don't we get closer to the elders
Knowing time won't stand still for the reaper

He stays there
Reliving his past
He stays there
Hoping for someone to talk with
He stays there
Asking why they wouldn't come
Too late
The angel has come
Sorry I'm gone
Yes I'm gone
So long I'm gone
Damned! He's gone!

6. Dead As The Night

On a pale endless night,
winds seem to swirl straight from hell
I wouldn't want to do it this time,
but rat blood for me is no longer fine
Wild thoughts are ravaging my brain,
under the moonlight I can see your veins
You think that you've known fear before!
My friend! You're in for some more!

You still don't know, you may become my prey!

Sure I would cry, but I ain't got tears in my eyes
Sure I should cry, 'cause my teeth do cut like knives
Sure I could cry, as you may not live to see the light
I'm dead as the night, and the dead rule the night

I can't look at the sun,
and I don't need the rain,
to wash all my sins away
I just need a break,
I don't mean to inflict pain
I just wanna know if I'm going insane
Am I going insane?
Am I insane?

Like long sharp knives,
second thoughts are carving me up
I must be the only one,
who feels sad all night long
I've got to find my real aim,
before I make you feel pain
I think that I've been strong so far,
but remorse is striking me to the core!

I still don't know, if tonight I'm gonna slay!

Sure I would cry, but I ain't got tears in my eyes
Sure I should cry, 'cause my teeth do cut like knives
Sure I could cry, as you may not live to see the light
I'm dead as the night, and the dead rule the night
But may they rule the night
Yet! They can't stand the light

My time's running short,
'cause darkness is going
My coffin's calling back for me...

7. The Age Of The Quick Fix

There is a time in our life when we have to choose
between the easy and the hard way to fulfill our dreams.
Consequently, many of us and especially the youth of
today often opt for, living in the fast lane."

You have no time to wait again
You've got to do it, to make it quick!
You can't afford to lose this game
You're just looking for the quick fix!

You have no time for all your friends
They are too slow or too boring for you
You got no respect for your native land
Nothing but you and only you!

You don't care, but you will find
Those shades you wear, are makin' you blind

Don't forget your friends
Before you regret
Because you'll regret
One day you'll regret

"Good things, they say, happen to those who wait..."

You want to climb higher and higher
You've got to be the star, for you it's only fair
Glory might taste that much better
If you would only share!

You wouldn't care, but now you find
Those shades you wear, have made you blind

Don't forget your friends
Before you regret
Because you'll regret
One day you'll regret

Don't forget your friends
Before you regret
Because you'll regret
Nothing but regrets!

8. F.A.T.E.

There's no tomorrow, my fate she told me
She took with her my chance to live
And now, she wants to take my soul
She wants to take my soul

Too much sorrow, my fate she told me
She just stole my chance to give
Will she possess my soul?
Why have I got to go, tell me
Where do I need to go?

Like a flying arrow, I'm swaying in the wind
And I don't even know where I am going
Maybe I'll strike the tree that'll save me with its sap
The sap of life...

I see a rainbow, is my mind fading?
And I don't know if I'm still lucid
She begs me for my soul, where have I got to go?
Won't you tell me,
Why have I got to go so helplessly?

They are tellin' me lies
'Cause I know I'm gonna die
Forget about my pain
And not going insane

Suddenly I am flying as a bird
I'm seeing all the events of my life
I feel an attraction, they want me to stay
Sorry! It's time for me to go anyway
There is my way

There's no tomorrow, my fate she told me
She took with her my last chance to live
Yet she didn't take my soul,
Now I can see you all...

9. No More War

You say you want more
And I'm starting to worry
You say you want war
Sorry, that's not my way

You say we need war
In spite of the evil it creates
You say we need more
Haven't we always had all the breaks

Have you ever thought about how the world could be
Don't you ever think twice
Haven't you ever seen all my eyes still see
It is not so nice

What are we waiting for?
Is that all you have in mind
I'm oh! so sick of war
Enough destruction of mankind

Have you ever thought about how the world could be
Don't you ever think twice
Haven't you ever seen all my eyes still see
It is not so nice

No more war, no more war
No more war, no more war
We want to live again
And we won't fight in vain
'Cause in our souls,
We just want peace, peace!

Can't you realize how stupid you can be
Don't you ever think twice
Haven't you ever seen the pain, the misery
Someone's gotta pay the price

No more war, no more war
No more war, no more war
We want to live again
And we won't fight in vain
'Cause in our souls,
We just want peace

No more war, no more war
No more war, no more war

10. United We Stand, Divided We Fall

People of the land claim that they care
They just keep on screaming about kings
But many of us try reaching for the stairs
To the throne and rule over all earthlings

We had better get along
Together we'll be so strong

Though masters of the land swear that they care
Like puppeteers they excel at pullin' strings
But any simple man goes sayin' rulers beware!
He who lives by the sword dies agonizing

We had better get along
Together we'll be so strong

United we stand
Divided we fall
United we stand
Divided we fall

United-Divided
United-Divided
United-Divided
United-Divided
We fall!

All of us we have to really care
Though we're different we all live for the same thing
Don't you feel something good's in the air
Instead of crying, raise your fist and sing!

We had better get along
Together we'll be so strong
People just got to hold on
United we can't go wrong

United we stand
Divided we fall
United we stand
Divided we fall
We won't fall!
