ELIAS
Hear my voice
It's telling stories
Telling just the truth
About some men
Who don't excuse
Only praying for you
It must be a starving man
Who likes to hear
These crippled minds talk
Greetings from me
Following the wind
I don't want to forget ...
... to regret
... to remember all the time
... everything
... all these years
Hear my voice
It's telling stories
Telling just the truth
About the innocent elias
Lying next to you
Innocent elias
Blood red messiahs
Never coming home
Greetings from me
Following the wind
(One of Regina's favs)
REAL
Now that I am back out there
Once more scared
Misgivings haven't gone
Inside this human race
No touch of grace
And still no place to go
I know it's up to me
To decide if this is real
But I'm walking and fro
Always thinking about the ways I chose
Welcome back yesterday not far away I'll keep an eye on you
Tell me how could I forget all the angers I once had
Should I start again to find the same that I once left behind
Then tell me why should I forget all these dreams that I still
have
Another time, another turn, I thought
But now I know that's wrong
This life will still remain the same
If I don't change a thing myself
I know it's up to me ...
(I don't know what is real anymore.)
WHERE
GREED TALKS...
Here's to you ... my friend ...
Here's a kind of love for you ...
Can you see my eyes ... my view, turns away
Dancing shades on my face ... that's where stars cannot shine
Silence ... is coming soon today ...
You think you're right
But it works inside
It's started long ago
You're bored by your ruined life
But you think it must be so ...
Why can't you see ... these staring sick eyes everywhere
It's a sin ... that's a fact you can't deny ...
Blow away these walls ...
Your life a train just passing by ...
These always watching eyes ...
This killing voice ...
Always talks to me ...
Always spinning around
Silence ... is coming soon today ...
YOUTH AND
GREED
She once was 17 but she never fall in
love
Because she never felt the same
Like the other ones at school
Like all the other boys and girls around
Misery, talk to me
Youth and greed, walk with me
Now she's 33 but there isn't anything
The really changed in her life
Not a moment not a while
She is married, bore a child
Growing old, growing older all the time
And she cries
A whining sound slips from her mouth
Trapped in here and no way out
Wait a while - wait a while
Mommy's pills will bring you to the other side
Wait a while - wait a while
Daddy's razor-blades will make you feel so fine
A LOOK
INTO YOUR HEART
I remember every day
Every year that pass the way
All the plans and all mistakes we made
She was unhappy
Many wishes unfulfilled so far i can understand
Life seems always much too hard to stand
If i could take a look into
Your heart
I wish you my pain
Wholeheartedly i knew it from the start
It's thunder in her heart
It's burning strong
She can't control it
Burning deep inside
Infecting her mind
Have you ever thought of me turn around, let life go on
Sixteen weeks since you were gone
Made me lose before i could have won
Look in my face
Just reflections of yourself
Disappointment
Best of hatred best of hatred
Whole heartedly
LOVESONG
Wait my dear ... no jealousies
Silly thing ... you can't know how i feel
Come take my hand I will show you the
flame
Burning secrets, burning wishes... your name
Don't be insecure, don't be afraid...
I'll hold you tight
Oh, virgin weakness, infinite sweetness... that's you
So let's dance all alone
I want to kiss you, want to feel you
deep
Your silly skin, a tender touch,
A sign that promises so much
I want to kiss you, want to feel you deep
And so we dance
Nothing ever spoils my joy of loving
you,
Of looking in your eyes ... I couldn't be that blind
That I won't crave for you
And still we dance
All alone
I want to kiss you, want to drown in
your desire
Your silky skin a tender touch,
A sigh that promises so much
I want to kiss you, want to feel you so deep...
NOW I FALL
Sometimes I can't fall asleep
You lie beside me and I weep
Dancing shadown on the wall
Once you caught me ... Now I fall
Sometimes I feel love and trust
Turn to anger and disgust
Crawling darkness in between
No light in reach ... No silver sheen
Sometimes I feel so ashamed
To be mercilessly framed
Idle hands and eyes that stare
But no escape that I would dare
... love and trust
... anger and disgust
Crawling darkness in between
No light in reach ... No silver sheen
... so ashamed
To be mercilessly framed
Idle hands and eyes that stare
But no escape that I would dare...
Pain increasing every day
No truth left I won't betray
One day our way leads to an end
Why do I cry ... I understand
That it's too late for me to go
I should have left you years ago
Beyond this point of no return
Hatred's flame will ever burn
... every day
... I won't betray
One day our way leads to an end
Why do I cry ... I understand
... too late for me to go
I should have left you years ago
Beyond this point of no return
Hatred's flame will ever burn...
Dancing shadown on the wall
Once you caught me ... Now I fall
Crawling darkness in between
No light in reach ... No silver sheen
(I often fall.)
RUBY (dont
take your love to town)
You painted up your lips
And rolled and curled your tindered hair
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The shadow on the wall tells
Me that the sun is going down
Oh Ruby
Dont take your love to town
It wasnt me that started that
old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic shore (huh?)
And yes, its true that Im not the man I used to be
Oh Ruby
I still need some company
Its hard to love a man whose legs
are bent and paralyzed
And the wants and the need of a woman your age,
Ruby, I realize
But it wont be long, Ive heard them say,
Until Im not around
Oh Ruby
Dont take your love to town
Shes leaving now cos I just heard
the slamming of the door The way I know Iveheard it slam
one hundered times before
And if I could move Id get my gun and put her in he ground
Oh Ruby
Dont take your love to town
For Gods sake turn around
(Wild west!)
THE SPARROWS
AND THE NIGHTINGALES
How long have you been free
In this world of hate and greed
Is it black or is it white?
Let's find another compromise
And our future standing still
We're dancing in the spotlight
Where is the leader who leads me
I'm still waiting
Leaving home
And god is on your side
Dividing Sparrows from the Nightingales
Watching all the time
Dividing water from the burning fire ... in sight
Leave a light on in the night for me
That I can find you
Remember when we both where young and reckless and so curious
Now you're hiding from your child
A new day's dawning
Remember that you felt alive sometimes
And God is on your side
Dividing cruelty from tenderness
Watching all the time
Dividing fiction from reality
Move in circles walk on lines
No human being in sight
Calm the winds and calm the seas
Try another kind of peace
Who fights this holy civil war
A million men in uniform
Wo ist der furer der mich führt
Ich warte immernoch
Leaving home
And God is on your side
Dividing presence from the history
Watching all the time
Dividing deaf men from the listening ones
Leave a light on ...
And God is on your side...
Move in circles and walk on lines...
Wo ist der furer der mich führt...
And God is on your side...
Leave a light on...
And God is on your side
Dividing soldiers from the fishermen
Watching all the time
dividing warships from the ferryboats
(Love that chilling feeling.)
