Лирика

1. Kingdom Of Madness

When the night is on the run and your dreams are almost gone
Seas of fire snatch your soul, beast of morning then unfold
In a whirlpool sadness creeps, shadows walk with silent feet
Is there something in the air, turns your hope into despair?

Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me undone
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've really begun
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me on the run

When the night is on the run and your dreams are almost gone
Seas of fire snatch your soul, beast of morning then unfold
Take your hands away from me, leave my eyes so I can see
It's not pleasure that you seek, you destroy the ones who are weak

Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me undone
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've really begun
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me on the run

The minstrel sings as he looks at me but he doesn't make a sound
And a lovely time is had by all as the jester plays around
Everyone's laughing, everyone's laughing, everyone's laughing but me

Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me undone
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've really begun
Oh, kingdom of madness – you've got me on the run

2. Universe

Here we go through the wide open spaces
Oh, cold winds blow sands of time in our faces
Beggars plead others greed in high places
Oh, love is won, love is lost, leaves no traces

Take your eyes across the sea, past the mountains
Oh, do you hear, though it's far, someone's counting
People write, armies fight, children shouting
Oh, love is won, love is real, love's a fountain

Who holds the answer to the universe?
Who holds the answer to the universe?
Who holds the answer to the universe?

Eagles fly past the sun to the rainbow
Yes, they decide where they're from, where they can go
But no one cries, someone hides in the shadow
Oh, love is kind, love is yours, love is mellow

Who holds the answer to the universe?
Who holds the answer to the universe?
Who holds the answer to the universe?

3. Invasion

You wouldn't believe your eyes, you wouldn't believe your ears
Out of the dawning skies, suddenly it appeared
I wonder why they're here, do they understand?
Seems they will destroy someone's master plan

Looking across the sea, looking across the land
Wondering what they'll find, wondering what's at hand
Breathing in the air, feel the falling rain
Getting all prepared for the final day

From out of the crimson air, suddenly came the fire
Look at the flaming sky, see how the flames grow higher
Alien, your day, is it not too near?
All the people say let the world be free

Wouldn't believe your eyes, you wouldn't believe your ears
Into the dawning skies, suddenly disappeared
Set their course for mars, leave the world behind
Tracking through the stars, find a different sign

4. In The Beginning

Pages were written, turned yellow, the age of the rhyme
Sadly confused by us all with the passing of time
Oh no, I tell you no lie, no madman am I
Give me another chance in another way
Give me another time in another day
Give me another part in another play

Silken the hand that has touched me and helped me till now
Torment replaces the feelings that face you somehow
Oh no, I tell you no lie, no madman am I
Give me another chance in another way
Give me another time in another day
Give me another part in another play

Oh no, I tell you no lie, no madman am I
Give me another chance in another way
Give me another time in another day
Give me another part in another play

Words that are whispered surround me and call to my ear
Courage embrace me, though tears may forsake me, I fear
Oh no, I tell you no lie, no madman am I
Give me another chance in another way
Give me another time in another day
Give me another part in another play

Will someone take my place?
I'm the prince of dreams, no one knows my face
I come to rest my mind
Help me understand, see what I can find

What's this before me now?
What's that behind?
It's the prophet of the morning star
He's not so blind

He calls to me so clear
Saying very soon, sorrow will be here
But before they pull you down
There's just one chance, for you to stay around

Or else a war to end all wars
Sink without a trace
I am the prince of dreams
And you shall know my face
You're going to know my face

Find the light that shines on everyone
Someone shines the light for me
Look inside yourself to understand
The question's answered, now I see

I am your life
I am your life
I am your god-given life

5. All Come Together

The morning slumber's not for me
The sun has gone and let me down
I wake and wonder, I can see
The rain has come turning me around

The morning slumber's not for me
The sun has gone and let me down
I wake and wonder, I can see
The rain has come turning me around

But it's all right now, yes, it's all right now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

The seven wonders of the world
Were broken and ready to fall
The king lay dying all alone
In sadness, I'll always recall

But it's all right now, yes, it's all right now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

I had to feel good, feeling good is all I need
You have to start with sad, so good means what it means
And there's been lots of sadness for me, for me

But it's all right now, yes, it's all right now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

I think I've tumbled now, at last
I guess there ain't nothing to choose
A fallen angel follows me
It looks like there's no time to lose

But it's all right now, yes, it's all right now
'Cause it's all come together
In the last few days it's been better
All come together right now

6. Great Adventure

I looked the lights as it faded fast
Where am I going, no one tells me
A journey far beyond my dreams
Everyone knowing no one can see

Beneath me flows a silver sea
Deeper than ever, take me over
Above me miles and miles of sky
Forbidden treasure don't grow older

How could it take so long to decide?
Now I've made up my mind, to sail for
Great adventure – claim your lonely years
Great adventure – save your only tears

I looked the lights as it faded fast
Where am I going, no one tells me
A journey far beyond my dreams
Everyone knowing no one can see

Across the universe we reach further
Until we've found what we are seeking
Within ourselves our future lies waiting
For a solution, none repeating

How could it take so long to decide?
Now I've made up my mind to sail for
Great adventure – claim your lonely years
Great adventure – save your only tears

7. Foolish Heart

No more footsteps, I'm alone
From her sad eyes, tears are falling
Once again I'm on my own
Through the wind I hear her calling

Many days have come and gone
At the thought of me returning
Will I be the only one?
Was the lesson worth learning?

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – where are you?

Thinking now it has begun
Time to wind up all the hours
The biggest fools under the sun
Are locked away in empty towers

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – where are you?

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – I'm relying on you

8. Reborn

Why am I here in this lonely dark room?
Did I do something or acted too soon?
The dogs they howl, the prisoners do cry
A king is born but a poor man he will die
I believe if you look through you window
Try reaching out to the rainbow
You will find he was stolen by shadows

Time will tell if I did speak out of turn
Then I'll know it was a lesson well learned
I hear no sound, though I see before my eyes
A faceless wave in a desert I despise
I believe if you look through you window
Try reaching out to the rainbow
You will find he was stolen by shadows

But I know it's only for a moment
And the moment goes so fast
And the seconds of the future
Are the seconds of the past

'Cause it all goes in circles and ends where it started
And the journey is familiar, 'though you think it's uncharted
You could have easily been this way a hundred times before

As another day passed, I secretly hide
All the funny feelings from deep down inside
Still I can but wonder how everyone knows
How they can believe in the thorn but no rose
Somebody ought to show them how to see
Somebody ought to tell them how to be free

I am a wheel that keeps turning
Cast out on a journey unending
This serves me well
Because I know I'm a seeker of fortune
None can explain or can foretell

Starlight on an ocean unbroken
Soft winds will refuse to be woken
All remains the same
And just like a silvery fountain
Comes from nowhere and back again

9. Changes

With every word I hear, there's no sympathy
It was destroyed and swept away
It is replaced by something I can't see
To stay forever and always

We really should try and talk it out
Avoid the same mistake again
But I can see there will be no doubt
Looks like we have reached the end

I'm going through changes, so many changes
I'm losing my senses, don't know what to do
I'll go through my changes, faster than you

Is there no one who feels the same as me?

I'm going through changes, so many changes
I'm losing my senses, don't know what to do
I'll go through my changes, faster than you

10. If I Could Live Forever

Friday night is almost over
Not a word has passed between
And before I get much older

I know if I could live forever
Nothing would change to better
Nothing will change at all
You gave me your love to last me forever, I know
You gave me your love to last me wherever I go

Now the world did sell so cheaply
For the price of just a kiss
Why should anyone believe me?

I know if I could live forever
Nothing would change to better
Nothing will change at all
You gave me your love to last me forever, I know
You gave me your love to last me wherever I go

Friday night is almost over
Not a word has passed between
And before I get much older

If again, he should embrace you
Would you follow him or stay?
Could you take what you would go through?

I know if I could live forever
Nothing would change to better
Nothing will change at all
You gave me your love to last me forever, I know
You gave me your love to last me wherever I go

11. All Of My Life

Now everything's gone my way
I'm a king among men
I did what the people say
With the sword not the pen

All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
Threw it all away

I constitute all that's left
The brave and the wild
All gone to seek endless rest
Their sleep unspoiled

All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
Threw it all away

And now the water falls, the mountain calls
I'd give you all of these
For now the war is won and I am done
No use am I in peace, peace

All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
Threw it all away

Now at last I can understand
Why I am alone
I recognise not this land
My eyes have grown old
They've grown old

All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
Threw it all away

And now the water falls, the mountain calls
I'd give you all of these
For now the war is won and I am done
No use am I in peace, peace
All of my life

12. The Lights Burned Out

The lights burned out and with it, it's taken my eyes
It seems so hard, it's taken me by surprise
And, oh baby, all that you said must be lies

I cease to feel the wind and the rain on my face
Sometimes I'm sure but then I'm confused in my haste
And, oh baby, I'm standing by taking no space

But I don't cry so easy, no, I don't cry at all
You don't believe me and I think that's my only downfall

What am I going to do about you, baby?
What am I going to do without you now?
What am I going to do about you, baby?
What am I going to do without you now?
What am I going to do without you now?

You had my love, wild as an ocean could call
I was the fool and you were the winner, take all
And, oh baby, it's so much to me, yet so small

What am I going to do about you, baby?
What am I going to do without you now?
What am I going to do about you, baby?
What am I going to do without you now?
What am I going to do without you now?

13. Soldier Of The Line

Soldier of the line, how does it feel?
You're far away from home, polishing steel
The sun moves in between the mountain and sky
As dawn puts out its fingers, splitting them wide

Soldier of the line, what do you know?
About the other side, they never show
They must be well disguised, biding their time
Their armour well prepared so nothing will shine

Solider of the line, would you kill me?
There's something in your eyes stopping you see
They're cloudy and you turn your head away
What's that rolling down your face, are you okay?

Hold back those tears from your eyes
Don't show those feelings inside

You're in a murderous playground
War games on a castle wall
You're in a murderous playground
Crossed out if you dare to fall

Soldier of the line, it isn't fair
You're bleeding deep inside, nobody cares
Your flag and lance stand proud, splintered and red
No movement in the fields, the crows will be fed

Soldier of the line, you've come to the end
You'll never get to see your mother again
Some unfamiliar place you're going to stay
An unremembered name, an unforgettable day

You're in a murderous playground
War games on a castle wall
You're in a murderous playground
Crossed out if you dare to fall

14. The Spirit

Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
Street corner justice beware
The spirit will find you always be fair

The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
In lies your heart will not share
The spirit inside you is used without care

To the spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you, always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside you is used without care

The battlefield of glory pales into rust
The river flows much thicker, fed by each thrust
No beast alive does compare
The spirit besides you everywhere

Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
And dreams of fortune won, forever to hoard
Your conscience could not repair
The spirit inside you is used without care

'Cause it will be your shelter
Help you how to decide
And it will be your helper
Should your loyalties divide

The spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you, always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside you is used without care

The ash of pages swept before the cruel wind
The loss of choices praises no one will sing
No clues to how you will fare
The spirit implores you tread where you dare

The dust lies thick on casket, rich or quite poor
Distinction disappears, the worm both deplore
The candle burns out once more
For the spirit inside you won't be ignored

The spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you, always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside you is used without care

15. Sacred Hour

All of my dreams that fell through and had tasted so sour
Take second place in my mind for this one sacred hour
Still I've been moved for so long by this strange fascination
Here, as I stand all alone in complete concentration

Face through the clouds and the gods shine with awe splendour
Rise up and roar, they approve, will they always remember?
I hear the voice of the crowd, it will last forever
Locked in my heart, kept away like a stolen treasure

I can hear them calling
Hear the crowd applauding
If it's real, I like the feeling
If I'm wrong, who am I deceiving?

Night after night it repeats an exciting romance
Shared by us all, though we met by a fleeting half chance
Caught trapped in time, no escape from this powerful dream world
Pleased, though I am to be here, I am lost in the real world

I can hear them calling
Hear the crowd applauding
If it's real, I like the feeling
If I'm wrong, who am I deceiving?

All of my dreams that fell through and had tasted so sour
Take second place in my mind for this one sacred hour
Still I've been moved for so long by this strange fascination
Here, as I stand all alone in complete concentration

I can hear them calling
Hear the crowd applauding
If it's real, I like the feeling
If I'm wrong, who am I deceiving?

In this one sacred hour

16. The Teacher

I bring you peace and understanding
I give you freedom from your cares
I bring the truth with no illusion
To give you hope when you despair

I have the secret of the whirlwind
I keep the eagle close at hand
This kingdom, tall as any mountain
Will reap the treasure from this land

I am the teacher
I am the teacher
I am the teacher

More than you'll ever know
Everything I can show

I have the answer to all questions
Above us here and far below
No voices will be raised in anger
No cruel ambitions will you show

I am the teacher
I am the teacher
I am the teacher

17. Runaround Sue

Here's my story, its sad but true
It's about a girl that I once knew
She took my love then ran around
With every single guy in town

Ah, I should have known it from the very start
This girl will leave me with a broken heart
Now listen people what I'm telling you
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue

I miss her lips and the smile on her face
The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace
So if you don't wanna cry like I do
A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue

Ah, she likes to travel around
She'll love you but she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys
Here's the moral and the story from the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say
Keep away from-a Runaround Sue

She likes to travel around
She'll love you but she'll put you down
Now people let me put you wise
Sue goes out with other guys
Here's the moral and the story from the guy who knows
I fell in love and my love still grows
Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say
Keep away from-a Runaround Sue

18. The Prize

There are no secrets under the sun
All our troubles are rolled into one
Early warning, get ready to run
But it's hard to see clear
For we might disappear
With the prize hardly won

When books and theories daily contest
It's like a welcome from the chapel of rest
No salvation, no one is blessed
While in private we shake
There's no time to make
One small request

No more winners or losers
To talk into the night
No more beggars or choosers
They're drawn into the fight
The race is on

There are no secrets under the sun
All our troubles are rolled into one
Early warning, get ready to run
But it's hard to see clear
For we might disappear
With the prize hardly won

No more winners or losers
To talk into the night
No more beggars or choosers
They're drawn into the fight

19. Road To Paradise

Innocence is traded on the road to paradise
When ambition starts to raise its ugly head
Prizes won't be given to the last ones in the line
And that's something that we all appear to dread

Listen to the ravings of a disillusioned man
When the rainy days collect to do their worst
Full of neat surprises is their sympathetic plan
They will cut you up and sell you till it hurts

We're all spinning on the roundabout
We're all spinning on the roundabout
Keep spinning on the roundabout

I don't wish to fight, just to prove that I'm right
I don't want the world upside down
I don't wish to fight, just to prove that I'm right
I just need the world spinning round

I don't wish to fight, just to prove that I'm right
I just need the world spinning round

We're all spinning on the roundabout
We're all spinning on the roundabout
Keep spinning on the roundabout

20. The Great Disaster

I'll tell you something about the things that you should know
And you'll learn as you grow and in turn
Be one step further along the road to realise
There's no rules, bad advice, many fools

First class performance to fill the lines of empty heads
There's still hope for the dream but you don't
Embrace disorder, it will chill you from inside
And destroy everything that you try

Innocent faces look up in the classroom
Soon their time will come

So beware of the skilful disguises
It's too easy to dress up in white
For this world can be full of surprises
From the gutter a kingdom looks nice
You're learning, there's no returning

This final blunder, for which they all expect our thanks
They will hide from the kill to survive
The great disaster, they'll take great care and will avoid
Being there 'cause it's more than they dare

Innocent faces look up in the classroom
Soon their time will come

Don't be fooled by the shining appearance
It gets tarnished in time, don't we all
They'll be wearing their wealth on their fingers
And instructing us all how to fall
You're learning, there's no returning

21. The Word

Wait, here's a word or two
To you who are passing through
Time is on your side
Though some may be denied
Just waiting, standing around
The time will come for everyone
Still waiting, soon to be found
The light inside of everyone

Nobody said that it was easy
Making your way all by yourself
But you take what you've got
Though it don't seem a lot
And you give it the best that you can

Life is a precious thing, so don't burn it up, start living it day by day
Life is a precious thing, so don't burn it up, start living it day by day

Though we must carry on
In time we will think upon
All those peaceful nights
When everything went right
Just waiting, standing around
The time will come for everyone
Still waiting, soon to be found
The light inside of everyone

Nobody said that it was easy
Making your way all by yourself
But you take what you've got
Though it don't seem a lot
And you give it the best that you can

Life is a precious thing, so don't burn it up, start living it day by day
Life is a precious thing, so don't burn it up, start living it day by day

22. Breakdown

In this strange world we have to live in
Protected by some, taken granted by all
Time honoured thoughts end disapproving
With all dominions ever ready to fall

You won't beat the pack, that's no revelation
Come snapping their jaws right on your heels
Making your way through all this confusion
The harder you try, the less it reveals

I know what happens the moment you turn out your light
And I know what happens, it happens to me every night

You start to breakdown, breakdown
You're going to crucify yourself, you're lost
When you get pushed around, pushed around
Another refugee to bear the cross

Stand up, fight back

Now every course, blighted by answers
Acutely profane, no help in this brawl
And from the mouths that never felt hunger
Comes no deliverance, just a timely withdraw

What of your thoughts, not yet discovered
Along with the fears, they both play their part
You'll work it out then run for cover
The truth will arrive like a bolt through your heart

I know what happens the moment you turn out your light
And I know what happens, it happens to me every night

You start to breakdown, breakdown
You're going to crucify yourself, you're lost
When you get pushed around, pushed around
Another refugee to bear the cross

23. Just Like An Arrow

We talk endlessly don't get anywhere
Born in reality cradled in care
If you needed me or mistreated me
Won't you still be there

And those lonely nights when you find it hard
Losing your appetite breaking apart
If you needed me or mistreated me
Don't break my heart

It goes deep my love only for you
Just like an arrow
It goes deep my love only for you
Just like an arrow
Straight through your heart

24. Endless Love

You're a believer of the wayward call
Heavens above, what comes with that?
No crystal gazing on an empty shore
Don't dip your eyes, don't turn your back

You make no promises when you break their hearts
Your magic power turns to dust
You're off and running long before it starts
That's what you do, stay untouched

No endless love – can't find no endless love
No endless love – can't find no endless love

I've turned the corner and there's no one there
You've peeled your shadow off the wall
Now I've crossed the border and so please beware
I'm never sure of you at all

No endless love – can't find no endless love
No endless love – can't find no endless love

25. How Far Jerusalem

They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight
They fill the doorways, they come far
Holding what they bring – details on a card
And on a rainy night like this
Someone shuts the door – goodbye on their lips

They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight
They fill the doorways, they come far
Holding what they bring – details on a card
And on a rainy night like this
Someone shuts the door – goodbye on their lips

There is no charity from where they come
There's nothing left to be
In stark reality thy will be done
For you, for them, for me

How far jerusalem – before the heart breaks down
No kings among them – cold feet in london town
How far jerusalem – oh, broken hearted clown
We stand among them – cold feet in london town

They are in search of liberty's trail
Equal in their eyes – faces drawn and pale
So many hearts have gone before
Probably ignored – crashing to the floor
They are the victims of the night
Ride against the wind – born to lose the fight

There is no charity from where they come
There's nothing left to be
In stark reality thy will be done
For you, for them, for me

How far jerusalem – before the heart breaks down
No kings among them – cold feet in london town
How far jerusalem – oh, broken hearted clown
We stand among them – cold feet in london town

26. On A Storyteller's Night

There's a storm lamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if you're able
On a storyteller's night
From the poorhouse, chimes indifferent
Seven towers, seven sisters
Every black heart walks the distance
On a storyteller's night

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

There's a chill wind at your back door
And the fire cracks on the damp floor
You hear footsteps but you're not sure
On a storyteller's night
See the night sky supernova
Chase the cold moon passing over
Start the dragon's fire to smoulder
On a storyteller's night

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning – I'll be with you once again

27. Before First Light

Every step I take along the way
Every hour of every single day
You don't listen to a word I say
I stand patiently waiting here
You left a message on the nearest wall
Just the same as all the ones before
I don't believe it when you write you'll call
I stand patiently waiting here

I want you here to help me through the night
Want you, my dear, don't leave before first light
I want you here to help me through the night

Every step I take along the way
Every hour of every single day
You don't listen to a word I say
I stand patiently waiting here
You left a message on the nearest wall
Just the same as all the ones before
I don't believe it when you write you'll call
I stand patiently waiting here

I want you here to help me through the night
Want you, my dear, don't leave before first light
I want you here to help me through the night

28. Rock Heavy

All you people, got to get together
Don't confuse it, try to make it better
No more nation against nation, all this narrow vision
All you lawyers, all you teachers and you politicians

Are you ready? Are you ready?
Amen, I'll say it again
Are you ready?
Rock heavy, oh, rock heavy

Got to stand up for the sense and reason
Talk it over and we'll start believing
We're not guilty or suspicious of different dress and colour
All you preachers, all you bankers and you mathematicians

Are you ready? Are you ready?
Amen, I'll say it again
Are you ready?
Rock heavy, oh, rock heavy

A change has got to come
A change for everyone

Are you ready? Are you ready?
Amen, I'll say it again
Are you ready?
Rock heavy, oh, rock heavy

29. The Tall Ships

Daybreak and they'll be waiting, nervous out in the cold
Searching the blue horizon, praying they'll soon be home
Sweethearts, parents and lovers, hear them say

The tall ships are coming in
They ride like a ghost on the tide
They come way down from rio
The tall ships are coming in
Fifty-nine days without land
Six thousand miles, way down from rio
And they travelled by the stars
Guided on the way by the southern cross

Under sugar loaf mountain, down in boto fargo bay
Christ on corco vado, all seems so far away
Close by, all point skyward, five fingers of god

The tall ships are coming in
They ride like a ghost on the tide
They come way down from rio
The tall ships are coming in
Fifty-nine days without land
Six thousand miles, way down from rio
And they travelled by the stars
Guided on the way by the southern cross

Sweethearts, parents and lovers, hear them say

The tall ships are coming in
They ride like a ghost on the tide
They come way down from rio
The tall ships are coming in
Fifty-nine days without land
Six thousand miles, way down from rio
And they travelled by the stars
Guided on the way by the southern cross

30. Vigilante

Racing in the shadows, the pounding of the feet
While the old men get to praying and the children try to sleep
Just another promise, they don't really care
'Cause the movement on the border's got the people running scared

Standing on the corner, never got things done
If you leave your front door open, you'll be the foolish one
No misunderstanding, no honour among thieves
It's a sorry situation, a gun is all you need

Go call the vigilante
He'll turn this place upside down
Go call the vigilante
He don't get kicked around

Hold on, there's a new way a-coming
Looks like he's arriving tonight
There's no more hiding or running
There's no more walking on ice

Standing on the corner, never got things done
If you leave your front door open, you'll be the foolish one
No misunderstanding, no honour among thieves
It's a sorry situation, a gun is all you need

Go call the vigilante
He'll turn this place upside down
Go call the vigilante
He don't get kicked around

Hold on, there's a new way a-coming
Looks like he's arriving tonight
There's no more hiding or running
There's no more walking on ice

Racing in the shadows, the pounding of the feet
While the old men get to praying and the children try to sleep
Just another promise, they don't really care
'Cause the movement on the border's got the people running scared

Go call the vigilante
He'll turn this place upside down
Go call the vigilante
He don't get kicked around

Hold on, there's a new way a-coming
Looks like he's arriving tonight
There's no more hiding or running
There's no more walking on ice

Vigilante – vigilante man
Vigilante – call the vigilante man

31. Days Of No Trust

Pray to they future, look to the past
Face the accuser, freeze in our tracks
When so many children have fallen from grace
The doors should be open, no scorn or disgrace

Keys have been stolen, treasure is lost
Lesson is golden, hearts have been crossed
So here's to the heroes, come one and come all
Without them, well who knows? Who knows at all?

In these days of no trust – evermore hostility
We're all living under the same old sky
'Cause we're all living, we're telling the same old lie
In these days, in these days, in these days of no trust

And music recorded might influence dreams
But headlines are courted by stretch limousines
Pictures of plenty, stuck to the walls
For heads that are empty, brains on the floor
Can't take any more

Someone is shouting revolution is here
But he'll climb any mountain for his selfish career
The truth's not a curtain, to be drawn back and forth
It's a flame that keep burning, everlasting torch

In these days of no trust – evermore hostility
We're all living under the same old sky
'Cause we're all living, we're telling the same old lie
In these days, in these days, in these days of no trust

32. Start Talking Love

Just another broken heart, any fool can see
Though we're living worlds apart, you're still next to me
I'm never going to give you up, never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, never going to say goodbye

It's just another lonely night, I'm missing you again
Nothing ever turns out right, so when's it going to end?
I'm never going to give you up, never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, I'm never going to say goodbye

When you start talking love
You know that I'd run through the night
To be with you – talk about love
It's a walk from the dark to the light
To be with you – start talking love
Talk about love

You left me with a broken heart, any fool can see
Now we're living worlds apart, guess it was meant to be
I'm never going to give you up, I never want to make you cry
Never going to give you up, I'm never going to say goodbye

When you start talking love
You know that I'd run through the night
To be with you – talk about love
It's a walk from the dark to the light
To be with you – start talking love
Talk about love

33. Rockin' Chair

You want love – you get hate
You push and shove, you know you just can't wait
You've had your fun, you don't fool no one
You build it up – to tear it down
You're running out of luck, I won't get kicked around
I could drive all night till you're out of sight

Hide and seek – turning on the heat
Running like a cadillac (like a cadillac)
I'm so sick and tired – you're a damn dirty liar
When I run, I said I ain't coming back

Oh, you better beware
Keep on rocking this house, baby, I don't care
Breaking out this jailhouse, going nowhere
I ain't ready for no rockin' chair

When you came – you play rough
Now I know your game and you ain't tough enough
Don't know what you've done 'cause you ain't begun
You fool with me – you're going to lose
You've got to understand that you don't get to choose
When night comes around I can't be found

Hide and seek – turning on the heat
Running like a cadillac (like a cadillac)
I'm so sick and tired – you're a damn dirty liar
When I run, I said I ain't coming back

Oh, you better beware
Keep on rocking this house, baby, I don't care
Breaking out this jailhouse, going nowhere
I ain't ready for no rockin' chair

Red sky burning – won't be no returning – so long
Fire up the motor – don't you get no closer – I'm gone

Oh, you better beware
Keep on rocking this house, baby, I don't care
Breaking out this jailhouse, going nowhere
I ain't ready for no rockin' chair

I don't need no rockin' chair
I don't want no rockin' chair
I don't need no rockin' chair
I don't want no rockin' chair

34. Only In America

There's a rainbow on sunset boulevard
Made of tears from hollywood
People praying for their green card
Pay to play, work for food

Only in america, only in america
Only in america, only in america

Swear allegiance every morning, it's another sunny day
Well, it's murder on the freeway, someone's life gets blown away
There's a pirate on the radio, there's a preacher on tv
Call the cia big daddio, tell the white house I'll be free

Only in america, only in america
Only in america, only in america

Tijuana 'cross the border, eat the worm, see paradise
Education in las vegas, cut the cards and roll the dice
People come to california and they aim to do it right
Every waitress, a performer, you'll be famous overnight

Only in america, only in america
Only in america, only in america

35. Les Mort Dansant

Cannons roared, in the valley they thundered, while the guns lit up the night
Then it rained and both sides wondered who is wrong and who is right?
On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow, bloody hands and broken back
When they fire, see him pirouette solo, jump in time to the rat-a-tat

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

By the wall, in silhouette standing, through a flash of sudden light
Cigarette from his mouth, just hanging, paper square to his heart, pinned tight
Gather round reluctant marksmen, one of them to take his life
With a smile, he gives them pardon, leaves the dark and takes the light

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

They dispatch their precious cargo and knock him back right off his feet
And they pray may no one follow, better still to face the beast
When the field has become a garden and the wall has stood the test
Children play and the dogs run barking, who would think or who would guess?

What a night, though it's one of seven
What a night for the dancing dead
What a night to be called to heaven
What a picture to fill your head

36. Wild Swan

Wild swan, follow the river, don't fly through dangerous skies
On and on, from bow and quiver, ride over mountains so high
Over fields and the ruin of castles, into the evening we soar
City lights begin to sparkle like diamonds thrown to the floor

Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come

Wild swan, follow the river, don't fly through dangerous skies
On and on, from bow and quiver, ride over mountains so high
Out to sea on the wings of heaven, where silver cuts like a knife
Say farewell to the ships of the ocean, we travel into the night

Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come
Fly home – it's just me and you, your only son
Fly home – I've been waiting to, the time has come

37. Heart Broken Busted

What you going to do on your own?
Even wonder should you ever go home
Here come those feelings, can't be right
You think nobody's going to miss you tonight

Mistrusted, heartbroke and busted
So where's the justice...

Going to be all right when love comes around
No hurricane wind blowing could slow you down
You'll be all right when love comes around

You say that you've never known
The kind of love that gets down deep in your soul
You're still reeling from the fight
You wouldn't know it, if it hit you tonight

Mistrusted, heartbroke and busted
So where's the justice...

Going to be all right when love comes around
No hurricane wind blowing could slow you down
You'll be all right when love comes around

And I will never know the questions you're asking
I know nothing at all
How can you stand upon the judgement you're passing
When you don't even know the cause?

Mistrusted, heartbroke and busted
So where's the justice...

Going to be all right when love comes around
No hurricane wind blowing could slow you down
You'll be all right when love comes around

38. Foolish Heart

No more footsteps, I'm alone
From her sad eyes, tears are falling
Once again I'm on my own
Through the wind I hear her calling

Many days have come and gone
At the thought of me returning
Will I be the only one?
Was the lesson worth learning?

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – where are you?

Thinking now it has begun
Time to wind up all the hours
The biggest fools under the sun
Are locked away in empty towers

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – where are you?

Foolish heart – you've let me down
Foolish heart – turn me around
Foolish heart – don't break in two
Foolish heart – I'm relying on you

39. Lonely Night

I'm looking for someone in this old crazy world tonight
I can't take this heartbreak in this old crazy world tonight
I'm feeling so empty in this old lonely world tonight
I'm restless, defenceless in this unholy world tonight

Oh, I never learn

Oh, lonely night – disappear
Oh, lonely night – don't you come round here
Oh, lonely night – lonely, lonely night

I'm waiting for something to put these foolish things to right
Protected, accepted, I need it now, I need it right
I'm feeling so empty in this old lonely world tonight
I'm restless, defenceless in this unholy world tonight

For love we burn, we never learn, we never learn

Oh, lonely night – disappear from my door
Oh, lonely night – don't you come round here no more
Oh, lonely night – disappear from my door
Oh, lonely night – don't you come round here no more

40. Without Your Love

I'd pay any price
Just to keep you here with me
I won't hold you down
You can feel that you're free
But it's all no good

Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
I can't make it on my own, I can't make it on my own

You've got to hold on me
But please don't let go
I love the way you do it
I know it must show
But it's all no good

Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
I can't make it on my own, I can't make it on my own

I couldn't breathe
I couldn't see
I couldn't feel
It's not the same
It's only me
It's not real, not real

Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
I can't make it on my own, I can't make it on my own

41. Sea Bird

Sea bird flies without a word at all
Captivated by the lonely call
Water glistens like a string of pearls
To the beach and through the rocks it swirls

And I gave you all my love
And I gave you all my love

You descend, a mellow wind remains
Till the summer returns once again
Far away, I think I hear your voice
Then it disappears, I have no choice

And I gave you all my love
And I gave you all my love

The only way to make you stay
Got to be with you everyday
And before you go away
Just remember what I say

Sea bird flies without a word at all
Captivated by the lonely call
Water glistens like a string of pearls
To the beach and through the rocks it swirls

And I gave you all my love
And I gave you all my love

You descend, a mellow wind remains
Till the summer returns once again
Far away, I think I hear your voice
Then it disappears, I have no choice

And I gave you all my love
And I gave you all my love

42. Stormbringer

Something here's going to end your life
Steely sword or assassin's knife
Your mother born with eyes unseen
Captured in her velvet dream

Stormbringer – elric, proud prince and lord
Stormbringer – crimson-eyed albino's magic sword

Past the void of time and space
Purple robe and a sacred place
You kneel beside enchanted lakes
The secret thoughts, your will to make

Stormbringer – elric, proud prince and lord
Stormbringer – crimson-eyed albino's magic sword

Stormbringer – elric, proud prince and lord
Stormbringer – crimson-eyed albino's magic sword

In the palace of a thousand eyes
Seeing nothing but telling lies
By the castle of a hundred tears
Hearing nothing pass through the years

Stormbringer – elric, proud prince and lord
Stormbringer – crimson-eyed albino's magic sword

43. Slipping Away

If the people could only see you
It would become as a big surprise
That a person they watch on tv
Worries and laughs and cries

When they finally get to know you
They'll be looking at someone else
And no matter what you keep saying
They'll put you upon the shelf

There are plenty of things for you to do
But you're letting it slip away
Yes, you're letting it slip away my friend
'Cause you're thinking about today

When you're moving up rather slowly
And putting yourself around
Just remember that on the way up
It's easier to come down

'Cause when your money seems almost endless
Well, I know it's been said before
But you know it won't last a lifetime
Maybe you'll need some more

There are plenty of things for you to do
But you're letting it slip away
Yes, you're letting it slip away my friend
'Cause you're thinking about today

If the people could only see you
It would become as a big surprise
That a person they watch on tv
Worries and laughs and cries

There are plenty of things for you to do
But you're letting it slip away
Yes, you're letting it slip away my friend
'Cause you're thinking about today

44. Captain America

The scarlet witch ain't going to help you tonight
The human torch has gone and put out his light
The god of thunder that we all know as Thor
Has lost his hammer and is feeling quite sore

Where is the star man to help all his friends?
He can't be back 'cause his fight never ends

Black eagle seems that he will sure get his way
I feel concerned about the usa
The iceman has melted and the angel has flown
But are we going to fight this villain alone

Where is the star man to help all his friends?
He can't be back 'cause his fight never ends

Pack up your money, move right away
My king is coming, he's arriving today
He can attract america when he likes
Black Panther doesn't have the strength or the mite

Hold on a minute, what is this that I can see?
Captain america is all right by me
We got no worries now I know he's all right
I feel much better now that I sleep at night

Here comes the star man to help all his friends
I knew he'd come or the books would just end

Here comes the star man to help all his friends
I knew he'd come or the books would just end
Here comes the star man to help all his friends
I knew he'd come or the books would just end

45. True Fine Love

Gets too much, so you brake off your pain
Cover up, not too late to pretend
Too many lies, stop and I run
Nowhere to hide, now I've begun to see
But your first class love made a first class fool out of me

There's no rush, I've got time on my side
Might be tough, I won't know till I try
Too many lies, stop and I run
Nowhere to hide, now I've begun to see
That your first class love made a first class fool out of me

True fine love
True fine love
True fine love
There ain't no price on true fine love

It's too much, so you brake off your pain
Cover up, not too late to pretend
Too many lies, stop and I run
Nowhere to hide, now I've begun to see
That your first class love made a first class fool out of me

True fine love
True fine love
True fine love
There ain't no price on true fine love
