All Alone 04:33
lyrics
buy track
Tonight along with all my friends Hoping they will take me away ‘Cos everything is getting too much For anyone is too much to bear Numb minds are everywhere Every time surrounding us A suffocating smoke of lost love If only they could smell like cloves (If only they could smell like cloves) At night tortured by the slow pain Echoes of screams again Broken bones and crushing stones Pointless like running from the rain All your defenses are gone Every time they’re just in vain It feels like water escaping from the hand If only you could understand They always say live fast die young But few of them dare to dance to the song I wonder why the just can’t do it Coherence instead of common sense I’d rather die for something better Something that would really matter But all my hope and faith are gone And now I’m dancing all alone All Alone Last night I missed the golden years While I was shivering with cold and tears Well dressed old men are standing still No hope, they’ve lost all their good will Taken away at the drop of a hat A rat prickled by claws of a cat The winter wind will lick your head The truth lies naked on my bed They always say live fast die young But few of them dare to dance to the song I wonder why the just can’t do it Coherence instead of common sense I’d rather die for something better Something that would really matter But all my hope and faith are gone And they have left me all alone They have left me all alone And now I’m dancing all alone All Alone Now I’m dancing all alone All alone All alone All alone All alone

Black Cat 03:04
lyrics

(Ah) (Ah) I used to love my black cat But I cut one of his eyes out of the socket And one morning in cold blood I hung the poor cat Since then my life was never the same And I even lost my entire house to the flames (Ooh) I remember that my wife once realized All black cats are witches in disguise One night I found another cat of the same color and size Just like the one I love (Just like the one I killed) Just like the one I love (Just like the one I killed) (But with a stain on its neck so white) Oh but soon I got sick of its presence And I even couldn’t bear its one eye absence An unpleasant remembrance One day after it made me fall down the stairs It made me go on strife I got an axe and I would have finished its life But my wife blocked the blow That just boosted my demon’s rage I hit her on the head And she fell dead I hid the body building a new wall I tried to find the beast to kill it But I couldn’t find it I couldn’t find it at all Days later the police came And my work wouldn’t have been in vain If I hadn’t hit the wall with my cane From behind the bricks Came a hideous shriek That sound made my soul frozen with awe That sound handed me to the hangman Now I understand There it was upon her head I’d walled the monster up within the tomb

Boys 04:19
lyrics
buy track
Lost Boys in lost worlds All traumas and all scars Mislead souls to die in wars I hear their cry from very far I couldn’t reach them where they are Passing by like shooting stars God and the dog Fighting each other until one falls What does it matter after all? We’re moving toward a black hole And at the very end There’s nothing to repent But what we haven’t done (But what we haven’t done) (But what we haven’t done) Beyond all we’ve been through No time was lost, no interest doomed We’re still paying the cost For all the choices we made then We couldn’t really understand So we got completely lost God and the dog Fighting each other until one falls What does it matter after all? We’re moving toward a black hole And at the very end There’s nothing to repent But what we haven’t done (But what we haven’t done) (But what we haven’t done) But at least they left us with memories And this I can take with me To heaven’s heights or abyss depths All moments left, all moments kept God and the dog Fighting each other until one falls What does it matter after all? We’re moving toward a black hole And at the very end There’s nothing to repent But what we haven’t done But what we haven’t done But what we haven’t done But what we haven’t done

Fashion Victims 03:26
lyrics
buy track
Too many people thirsty for success Too many people trying to get there Avid for something to give them class Following new trends but going nowhere They end up looking the same Like many others decades ago They’re in the cross hairs Of mass consumption weapons They’re fashion victims Caught trying to take off But crashed on the runway (Way) Crashed on the runway (Way) Crashed on the runway Too much waste in name of beauty Too much noise for such a small talk Glossies for corporations so greedy Promoting anorexic looks on the catwalk But watch out, you may be the next Like many others decades before They have you at the cross hairs They need their target public Will they score once more? They’re fashion victims Caught trying to take off But crashed on the runway (Way) Crashed on the runway (Way) Crashed on the runway

Little one, come with me There’s no need to be like this I will give you all my aid And protect you from the pain If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive) If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive) Big bad wolves or boogie men They won’t dare to scare you again Big bad wolves or boogie men They won’t dare to scare you again Little one, come out to play There’s no need to be afraid Precious one, I wish you well I’ll send the monsters back to hell I’ll send all monsters back to hell Under the bandages there was a little angel Without even knowing why Got all those bruises and scars Just remembering that brings tears in my eyes Big bad wolves or boogie men They won’t dare to scare you again Big bad wolves or boogie men They won’t dare to scare you again If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive) If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive) If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive) If someone tries to lay a finger on you (I won’t forgive, I won’t forget) If someone tries to make you sad (I won’t forget, I won’t forgive)

They Never Let Me Go 03:17
lyrics

No, they never let me go This crown of thorns has pierced my soul No, they never let me down A sweet pain growing inside out Under the shadows of the past I hear a call From distance voices inside invisible walls They were young and proud Now end up green and sad They look so bizarre Under the tree of the dead You know No, they never let me go This crown of thorns has pierced my soul No, they never let me down A sweet pain growing inside out When the time stopped It sounded not so bad To try out the joys of a glorious path All those sublime delights and unknown pleasures Now became a torture, an unbearable pressure You know No, they never let me go This crown of thorns has pierced my soul No, they never let me down A sweet pain growing inside out (Oh) (Oh) Footsteps in the empty room Sounding like the march of doom Cries and giggling of merry light Pale and sharp children so bright Sympathy for the forgotten ones Chilling wind on the naked bones Meet me at the crossroads Poison pen and stuffed toads Tears of candles burning slow Tears of candles burning slow

Oh, I’m sinking deep, won’t you rescue me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, can’t you hear me? I’m desperate, please help me A dismay of an entire nation Long days of loathing and degradation I can’t take any of it anymore My conditions of living are so poor That takes me to the world outside Suppress the pain across my heart Feeling like the body is torn apart Pierced by a thousand darts Oh, I’m sinking deep, won’t you rescue me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, can’t you hear me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, I’m sinking deep, won’t you rescue me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, can’t you hear me? I’m desperate, please help me Rebellion in an entire nation Long days of fear and desolation No one here is safe anymore My hands are tied and sore That makes me feel the pain inside Suppress the body, suppress the art Feeling like the heart is torn apart The worst moment by far Oh, I’m sinking deep, won’t you rescue me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, can’t you hear me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, I’m sinking deep, won’t you rescue me? I’m desperate, please help me Oh, can’t you hear me? I’m desperate, please help me Suffocating by years of stagnation Revolting people dragged to starvation Annihilating the population Grim Reaper ruling as before Rites of violence and gore Grim Reaper ruling as before Rites of violence and gore

Revelations 03:22

Every second spent with you Wasting time counting the minutes Chasing electric ghosts of dark matter They are Intangible like you Every time I wander through rain Forgetting how it was to be alive Every single day and every night Trying to remain sane Call my name and I’ll appear at your door, call my name Call my name and I’ll appear at your door Like in revelations, the book of revelations Every life form in this planet Will be gone for good someday But the world might end up sooner At least from my point of view All I ask before that happen is: One more day along with you I’m trying to remain sane I’m trying to forget your name Come with me and I’ll take you to the shores Come with me, come with me and I’ll take you to the shores Come with me Like in revelations, the book of revelations Like in revelations, the book of revelations

The Tyger 04:45
lyrics

Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies. Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand, dare seize the fire? And what shoulder, & what art, Could twist the sinews of thy heart? And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand? & what dread feet? What the hammer? what the chain, In what furnace was thy brain? What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp! When the stars threw down their spears And water'd heaven with their tears: Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee? Tyger Tyger burning bright, In the forests of the night: What immortal hand or eye, Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The Answer Lies Inside You 03:50

Will my plans gain speed? What resources do I need? Which trail should I take? What decisions must I make? Will my sorrow be gone? Will I ever see the “one”? Who will come to save me? Whom should I believe in? The answer lies inside me, inside you Will it come to an end? Will rescue be at hand? What people should I meet to make this life complete? Where have all my hope gone to? Will our dreams ever come true? When will I find a way? Will I know the truth someday? The answer lies inside me, inside you

You are so clumsy and shy Always showing a nervous smile Every time you tried to succeed They cruelly ripped off all your wings But time is different now And all your friends are not around Bullying you like an ugly duckling Turning your dreams in a killing joke Get rid of your prejudice eyes Take a chance and roll the dice This night might be your very last one Make your move or you’ll end up alone Get rid of your prejudice eyes Take a chance and roll the dice This night might be your very last one Make your move to get anyone Of all the deadly ones Pride is what you were found of Dancing like a tiny butterfly With fears that you tried so hard to hide But so naïve you were And all the tears you must have poured For loneliness is such a bitter pill Or for a dream you have never fulfilled You feel down and think of ending your life But take a chance and roll the dice This night may be your very last one Make your move or you’ll end up alone You feel down and think of ending your life But take a chance and roll the dice This night may be your very last one Make your move to get anyone Anyone (Ooh, Ooh) (Ooh, Ooh) (Ooh, Ooh) (Ooh, Ooh) You feel down and think of ending your life But take a chance and roll the dice This night may be your very last one Make your move or you’ll end up alone You feel down and think of ending your life But take a chance and roll the dice This night may be your very last one Make your move to get anyone Anyone

Just got up, still numb Still pressed under Morpheus thumb In need of that lady to rise me up I try to reach her out at the bottom of a cup She’s swimming in that black drink She’s dragging me out of this void She’s the one who gives me the kicks She’s the one I’d never try to avoid Lady Caffeine in shiny black outfit I’m missing you desperately From dark clouds of lethargy I call Turn me on and never let me fall Lady Caffeine (Ooh) Lady Caffeine (Ooh) She has me at her feet But she’s a sovereign so sweet Her red lips keep me warm Like electric light in a brainstorm Feel her fresh hot scent She has tantalized my brain She’s involving in a dark lust so insane She’s a party, a feast, to the senses She’s playing with feelings so intensely Lady Caffeine in shiny black outfit I’m missing you desperately From dark clouds of lethargy I call Turn me on and never let me down Lady Caffeine (Ooh) Lady Caffeine (Ooh) Lady Caffeine (Ooh) Lady Caffeine (Ooh)

Every day the suffocating routine Bending you over for a living Ironically you don`t live at all You`re just becoming part of the machine You give the best of yourself to others who just don`t care To forget you on a corner To break this chain you must dare I dare you to never give up I dare you to stand your chin up I dare you to do what you wanted to Come to see the world right in front of you Right in front of you Right in front of you Your pretty face is becoming old Your golden heart is growing cold Your brightest dreams are left behind For this routine that makes you blind It`s better to die trying than living with hypothesis Of what you could have done But never did This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease I dare you to never give up I dare you to stand your chin up I dare you to do what you wanted to Come to see the world right in front of you Right in front of you Right in front of you This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease This is the pain that never cease Get up and shake up the disease

A noite cai e com ela eu venho junto Sob olhares desconfiados Me escondo, me esquivo e sigo em frente Procurando alguma coisa Procurando algo que possa até me enganar E esconder o vazio da mente Aprendi a viver nesse inferno Aprendi a lidar com as diferenças Injustiças, inseguranças e com a solidão Eu sei que não está certo para mim ou para você Mas não há mais o que fazer Eu sei que não é certo para mim ou para você Mas não há mais o que fazer A noite cai e com ela eu venho junto Ao encontro da solidão A noite cai e com ela eu venho junto Ao encontro da solidão (Oh)
