Father

Where is your kingdom
Lord can you show me the place
Can you tell me
Where all the tears
Are falling down
Just give me a sign
One good reason
That I'm living for
One sign, one easy sign
There's no chance to hide away

Father, father, is there a way for me
Father, father, is there a candle
In the night to show me the way

Give me absolution
For all the things that I've done
Why you tell me
That all my prayers
Are falling down
Just give me a sign
One good reason
That I'm living for
One sign, one easy sign
There's no chance to hide away

Father, father, is there a way for me
Father, father, is there a candle
In the night to show me the way

Where is your kingdom
And where is your light
Your hand of creation
Can heal me inside

Push

Waiting on sacrifice
Sacred fires
Rushing with the wind
We are living in a dangerzone
Listen to a prayermachine
Praying a tainted precedent
Heart on heart
We break the rules again
Just you and me
We're coming up
or going down together

What d'you want from me
You can't find the key

What d'you want from me
Push your heart to pray

This world deaf and blind
Is a sign for the end of time
No one surrenders
No one surrenders
Heart on heart
We break the rules again
Skin on skin
The foreign blood
Feels like
My own deep river

What d'you want from me
Can you find the key

What d'you want from me
Push your heart to pray

When the wind blows

After the curtain falling
Is the end
Hard to believe and not to cry
Words and feelings
Pouring over
My pain and my skin
But I don't want
To say goodbye
Ain't no coming back this time
I can see it in my dreams

When the wind blows
Right into my face
When the wind blows
Into my face again

Back on the raging waters
Of the sea
Look for a harbour to sail in
Again the lies
Again the feelings
Again the mistakes
I'm waiting for the hurricane
and the tears that I cry
And the tears that you taste
Believe me
And the fears that I have
Are the fears you deny
Sincerely

When the wind blows
Right into my face
When the wind blows
Into my face again

The storm is coming
The storm is breaking loose

My crying

Here's the grand illusion
Superstitious man
I can see how it all began
A pocket full of dreams
And a story backwards told
We dream it all in vain
Holding on, holding on
This is my final warning
Here is my news today

This is my crying
For these good old bad days
Kings and queens and presidents
This is my world - this is my crying
For these good old bad days
Give her away, taking it down
To the poisoned water
This is my world - this is my world

Where's the grand solution
Unimmortal world
Any fool can rule the land
When everything has changed
And the dog spelled
Backwards god
Infected till the end
Holding on, holding on
This is my final warning
Here's my news today

This is my crying
For these good old bad days
Kings and queens and presidents
This is my world - this is my crying
For these good old bad days
Give her away, taking it down
To the poisoned water

Soul survives

Mission of your life
Coming from the past
We can leave it all behind
Try to understand
What it's all about
We can't change it all
This time
Any point of view
Flowing down the line
We can't hear the world
This time
Mission of your life
We come along
We have to go
Takes a million years
For us to find a home
We never want

Passion to the pain
Do we need a saviour
Need a saviour

Pray for the light
Pray for the day
Pray for the illusion wishes fail
And nothing's sacred

Cross the water
Cross the bridge
One gross failure
A million years
The data bank won't forget

The soul survives
Visions closer
Visions closer

Written in a book
In a language we don't know
Takes a million years
We never go
Passion to the pain
Do we need a saviour
Need a saviour

Pray for the son - pray for the night
Pay for illusions just to buy
The prince of tides

Cross the water - cross the bridge
Cross for the saviour
A million tears the data bank won't forget

The soul survives
Visions closer - visions closer

Round and round and round we go
When we're waiting for the lord
And the ultimatum falls
When the unborn is not king again
Our calculation is false
When we're drifting
Day by day
To a point of no return
Then the prayer for the light of day
Is written on your soul
Ten thousand years away

The soul survives
Visions closer, visions closer

Round and round and round we go

Anytime

I see the storm is coming
From a hundred
Miles in a shade
And the rain keeps failing down
On a summer night parade
I'm asking
Who is gonna do this
Who can take this
Little girl o' mine
I'm not there
When she needed me to stay

I'm praying
Anytime and any day
I said lady
You gave your light away
Anytime and anyday
The tears will fall
For my lady

He's a lonesome renegade
Nobody understands
But addicted from the lust
To take little girls
Again and again
Doctor can you tell me
Why you set him free
So he was there
When she needed me to stay

I'm praying
Anytime and any day
I said lady
You gave your light away
Anytime and anyday
The tears will fall
For my lady

Who is gonna hold you
There in heaven
Who will wash away
All the tears
Who is there to tell you
When you're seven
Singing you a song
For your birthday
Do you love your mummy
And your daddy
Do you feel the hole
In our hearts
I know sometimes
My own love executes me
Someday I will drown
In my own tears

I'm praying
Anytime and any day
I said lady
You gave your light away
Anytime and anyday
The tears will fall
For my lady

Judas

Obsessions throwing
Sticks and stones
To break your bones into
Sympathy for lies and hate
Are no no good
Enemies sow bitter seed
To satisfy their blood
Behind your eyes
You are so mean

It's a sticky situation - a ticket to hell
We know nothing 'bout that faking temptation
The kiss and goodbye is a wishing you well

You're no son of god and you're no son of love
You're a Judas
I know that you are a part of me

Treat me beat me or defeat me
Nail me to the tree
Lovin' prayers are lullabies
For you and me
Police and politicians
The best that money can buy
You measured god
Corruption aid
Infected situation
You merchant of lies
You seem closer
To a holy sensation
Of walking on water
When water is ice

You're no son of god and you're no son of love
You're a Judas
I know that you are a part of me

Back to me

Here comes the jet airliner
The thing that breaks up apart
Breakin' rules
Play everybody's asshole
And let go sun go down
We march ahead
To the front line
There is no chance to deny
You have to leave
Like the others
To go and fight for a lie
And tears are falling
When this empty night
Is calling

And your tear falls in the
River touches the sea
Sea meets the stream
While angels sleep
Waters run in straight
From the river to the sea
Back to me, back to me

They're marching
Into the desert
It's a killing joke
The drying out of the children
Is our shame for the love
Again the jet airliner
The thing that breaks up apart
You have to leave
Like the other boys brother
I don't wanna let you go
But tears are falling
When this empty night is calling

And your tear falls in the
River touches the sea
Sea meets the stream
While angels sleep
Waters run in straight
From the river to the sea
Back to me, back to me

How many tears

Brother can you see
That the time's just begun
Brother can you see
That the time's moving on
Brother can you follow the light

Into a better place
Brother can you see
That your life's a disgrace
What's going on in your head
Something's driving you mad

How many tears - how many days
How many roads -how many tears
How many days - how many roads
How many lives we spend

Sister can't you see
That your life's just begun
Sister can you see
That your life's moving on
And don't you see
There is another way
To another place
For you and me sister
What's going on in your head
Something's driving you mad

How many tears - how many days
How many roads -how many tears
How many days - how many roads
How many lives we spend
Away from you

I tell you brother, i tell you sister
You are miles away, from the truth
