Лирика

1. Cheated

Lying here so weary girl
Just crying over you
The colours in our rainbow
How they've all turned blue
Raindrop in the ocean
That's what you've made of me today
But still I search for the answer
To why you went away

I've seen darkness
I've seen the light
I felt the pain, oh the pain
In the dead of night

I've been cheated
My hearts been bruised
I've been cheated
All my life I've just been used

Let me tell you darlin'
If you read the lines upon my face
Their sure enough to tell you
My heads out of place

Maybe tomorrow girl
You'll come back to set me free
Cos you know it's only you babe
Who holds the golden key

I've seen darkness
I've seen the light
I felt the pain, oh the pain
In the dead of night

I've been cheated
My hearts been bruised
I've been cheated
All my life I've just been used

I've been cheated
My hearts been bruised
I've been cheated
All my life I've just been used

2. Can't See The Angels

Look and see into this other world
For them the rules can always bend
What a lasting dream, they know they have the very best
The chosen few need no pretend

Not just a game, not just a way to be
We all can have the chance to turn the tide our way

You can't see the angels from here
Life itself may be your only fear
Though the futures no certain
The message is quite clear
No you can't see the angels from here

Nothing to lose, now that you know for sure
And no one said it's an easy ride
The choice is not so very hard to make my friend
The losers ghost seen by his sede

Not just a game, not just a way to be
We all can have the chance to turn the tide our way

Life itself may be your only fear
Though the futures no certain
The message is quite clear
No you can't see the angels from here
No you can't see the angels from here
Can't see the angels from here

3. A Cry For The New World

We've been lost
We have learned
Mistakes and corners that we've turned
We've been loved
We've been burned
Trials by fire still adjourned

I should've known better baby
Than tearing down the world that way
But it keeps turning round
Now I know, we've got a place to go
That's worth fighting for
So don't run away

We should be breaking chains
Not breaking hearts and souls
A silent voice will grow
A cry for the new world
Victims of these changes
Love will take control
From the devil that we know

A chance we had, to cry for the new world

A hungry voice
With hungry eyes
Believe me, cameras never lie
Visions of youth
With naked pride
Freezing in the winter of their lives

Don't stop dreaming baby
Don't forget about the world out there
'cause it keeps turning round
Now I know, we've got a place to go
We've got time to care
So don't run away
Don't forget about the world
We're got to care

4. Letting Go

I close my tired eyes I leave this world
Still the heart it wants to beat
Whispering voices they are calling out your name
Ageless faces life it seem to cheat

See the light it's not an early dawn
The light now waiting to shine on you

Like a blind man who fears for the night
Life is such a cruel game
We were born to be alone and die the same

Letting go, letting go
The evil cry, the angels sing
Letting go, letting go
The light that will guide you away

I've found the only way to free my soul
Unearth the hidden souvenir
Fear just carries the mystery along
Doors of time begin to reappear

See the light it's not an early dawn
The light now waiting to shine on you

Like a blind man who fears for the night
Life is such a cruel game
We were born to be alone and die the same

Letting go, letting go
The evil cry, the angels sing
Letting go, letting go
The light that will guide you away
Letting go, letting go
The evil cry, the angels sing
Letting go, letting go
The light that will show you the way

Letting go, letting go
The evil cry, the angels sing
Letting go, letting go
The light that will guide you away
Letting go, letting go
The evil cry, the angels sing
Letting go, letting go
The fight for your life is never too far away

5. Journeyman

He's crossed a hundred thousand light years maybe more
He's back, he couldn't find what he was looking for

Mother Earth was fighting for her life
But the knife cut in too deep
In his quest for life anew
Was hе worth what he's been through?
What could we do?

Journeyman
Turn the clock back if you can
Journeyman
You chose to be a journeyman

He took an endless flight and stumbled down the years
Caught in a space of doubt and universal fears

Forgotten days and children never grown
Watched as men fell to his knees
Tired of building up the walls
Till there's no air left to breath
Will they believe?

Journeyman
Turn the clock back if you can
Journeyman
The power now is in your hands

And the children that she served
Watched her laying down to sleep
Can they save this dying world?
As they sow, will they reap

Journeyman
Turn the clock back if you can
Journeyman
Damn the future wreck the plan
Journeyman
Back to make a final stand
Journeyman
The one they call the journeyman

On a voyage of a billion dreams untold
Just to see it all get blown away
And we'll go back and burn in time
If evolution leaves us where we lay

6. Only The Children Cry

Tears on their faces
And fear for their kind
Chasing our shadows
Blind leading the blind

Burning bridges now there in
No turning back
You're in passageway to hell
Cry for a new world this is no place to be
Call for your freedom
Hear the voice of destiny

Only the children cry
Too young to live
Too young to die

Born by temptation
You'll suffer their game
Your dreams are paradise
In this land of pain

Burning bridges now there is no turning back
You're in passageway to hell
Cry for a new world this is no place to be
Call for your freedom
Hear the voice of destiny

The line that's between us
Two worlds so far apart
The challenge may lie beyond you
No other will know
The silence you are dying for

7. Turn The Tables

If life's a game of finding more
Belief may be your final score
So out you go and stake your claim
You've waited long now reap the gain
A cosy nest where they all lay
Those armchair dreams now fade away
Sit on the fence believe it's true
The world will never come to you

Turn the tables
It's my turn
If life's a lesson then I'm hear to learn
Turn the tables, turn them again
The road may change but the goal is the same

Show the how to put it right
Then maybe it will be worth the fight
The luck I need ait on my said
But is it strength I need to swallow my pride

Turn the tables
It's my turn
If life's a lesson then I'm hear to learn
Turn the tables, turn them again
The road may change but the goal is the same

At the top now looking down
Watching those who'll never touch your crown
Life is short but can be sweet
The choice is yours now it's at your fee

8. Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark

This man that snads before me
This man he holds your gallant name
A branded soul still burning
Every night you fear the same
(Cry out)
Cry out my friend let me know
Don't hide the truth, don't let me die in vain
Open your hear, breathe again

Don't be afraid of the dark

Hide from the memories
But show me where you are
Don't be afraid of the dark
The shadow that I see
The ghost is really me

Don't bite the hand that feeds you
Don't throw away the help you need
To fear those haunting nightmares
Hell and back but never freed
(Cry out)
Cry out my friend let me know
Don't hide the truth, don't hide away the pain
Open your hear, breathe again
Open your eyes, see again

Don't be afraid of the dark
Hide from the memories
But show me where you are
Don't be afraid of the dark

9. Best Years

Do you remember there were five of us, or maybe more
We'd be together day by day
We'd miss off school and hope that
No one else would know for sure
Living dangerously that way

Searching memories of our yesterdays
Far too strong to fade away
Every moment has its lifetime
And each lifetime
Has its day
I'm chasing shadows all the way

I'm living in memories
Holding onto all my childhood dreams
Those were the best years of my life
I'm looking at the photographs
Checking out the way we use to laugh
Those were the best years of my life

There was a time when everything
We did was always bad
Running wild without a care
And when those smiling faces changed
From happiness to sad
Look around you don't despair

Searching memories of our yesterdays
Far too strong to fade away
Every moment has its lifetime
And each lifetime
Has its day
I'm chasing shadows all the way

I'm living in memories
Holding onto all my childhood dreams
Those were the best years of my life
I'm looking at the photographs
Checking out the way we use to laugh
Those were the best years of my life

10. Forever In Time

Taking for granted I made the mistake
That the heavens can wait
You were my creator of soul and heart
Now I live in your wake
Maybe I'll be forever oneday
But by whom I don't know
Deserving this punishment now because I do
And this sentence to slow

Hallowed and be thy name
Seeking the road of redemption
Reach for the gods in vain
Guilty of love and temptation

Can I tell you now
Can I tell you how I feel
How my world has turned to darkness
In this winter here in my soul

The clouds that won't hide away
The rain in my eyes
Forgive me I cannot pretend anymore
How we failed to hear your cries
Running away I have nowhere to hide
Searching for peace in my mind
These old memories how they haunt me now
I know this peace I'll never find

Hallowed and be thy name
Seeking the road of redemption
Reach for the gods in vain
Guilty of love and temptation

Can I tell you now
Can I tell you how I feel
How my world has turned to darkness
In this winter here in my soul
Take away the pain
Take away the sorrow now
Now I'll hold you in my mind and heart
Nothing more can be real

Forever in time

11. Nowhere To Hide

The masses now will share the crime
Too late for the me cry call
How many times did we see the axe
But still we let it fall
Now the knowledge runs so deep
Every secret cannot keep
The danger lies in every wake
But still the nations sleep
It's over now so many years
The master race never won
For mans attempt of playing god
The nightmare has begun

Nowhere to hide
No one to call
In this world you're now alone with nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
No one to call
If you wake inside your dream there is nothing at all

This fearsome sight this light of beauty
The power inside the fire and fury
Now the day can never come
The night has finally won
A shadow that may last eternally
This fearsome sight this light of beauty
The power inside the fire and fury

The deadly silence echoes all around
The final verse in history

When it comes there'll be no warning
When it comes there may be no sight nor sound
The heart will search for memories
The fading of the years
Through emptiness it's hard to see
A victory...a victory in tears

Nowhere to hide
No one to call
In this world you're now alone with nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
No one to call
If you wake inside your dream there is nothing at all
This fearsome sight this light of beauty
The power inside the fire and fury

12. Naked

Build me a rocket to heaven
Throw me a rope down from the sky
Maybe I'll be there be seven
If I could only learn to fly
And in these dreams I hear you calling me
I hear you calling my name...I feel the pain

I feel so naked, I'm naked without you
I feel so naked, what more can I do
Stripped of all my virtues and my pride
I feel so naked, without you by my side

Lost in a sea of confusion
So lost and I just can't find my way
I chase the elusive illusion
I know I'll catch up with you some day
Your eyes will always be a mystery
Without you my life's not the same
And in these dreams I hear you constantly
I hear you crying my name...again and again

I feel so naked, I'm naked without you
I feel so naked, what more can I do
Stripped of all my virtues and my pride
I feel so naked, without you by my side
I feel so naked, I'm naked without you
I feel so naked, what more can I do
Stripped of all my virtues I can't hide
I feel so naked, without you by my side

If a diamond is forever, can't a ruby be as well
We should have been together, but who could ever tell
Are we all gods creatures on this now forsaken land
There are many, many preachers try to make me understand
You can see the new horizon, you can touch the new frontier
Now the mist has finally lifted, but your path is still so unclear

Without your ashes there's be nothing left to hold
And without this memory I'd be left out in the cold
So can anybody out there even begin to understand
Just what it's like to have your own flesh and blood
Ripped right from your hands

Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my hell
Welcome to my misery
A story I can tell
Free me from this prison
Free me from this cell
Free me from this torment
Please free me from this spell
Open up the heavens
Open up your skies
Open up your kingdom you call your paradise
Take away my sorrow
Take the pain away
Take away the sadness, leave me naked with dreams of yesterday

13. A Moment In Life

(бонус)

How can I let you turn
You're turning away from me
I believe in you
Can't you believe in me?
If you could see what I can see
I'd walk that road with you
Turn my hopes into your dreams

I see tomorrow...it's sleeping by day after day
Don't stray too long, don't hesitate

For a moment in life
You've got to take control
Just when you feel like letting go
For a moment in life
You've got to change your world
When you're young and far from home

I got no reason now
No reason to make believe
This reality
It's burning holes in me
If you could see what I can see
You'd turn this way again
'cause you're all that I need

We don't live forever
You'd better start out right away
Don't let them tell you its wrong
I see tomorrow...
It's slipping by day after day
Don't stray too long
Don't hesitate
