Ain't Got Time

Ain't got time
You ain't got time

Ain't got time to say Goodbye
Feel so free my music's got me back

We got to teach you
bomb the beat y'all

Get off your feet, yeah you appear
give me your tears, 'cos we're all going mad

Take me miles away from home

Invisible dreams, becoming true
faces unknown, emotions eye to eye

Take me miles away from home



Anne Claire

Weak her bones, cold her breath
praying fearfully in the moment of death
feels the sleep goming near
tries to keep her eyes open and clear
through the dark, there's the sound she fears

Anne Claire, that is no love you got to share
Anne Claire, going into a sad lag of flair

Easy meet placed in an ugly game
lights a candle for an endless shame
your love is her pain, growing to hate
R.I.P. for rape, she's no longer your

Anne Claire, that is no love you got to share
Anne Claire, going into a sad lag of flair
Does she turn you on
diggin in her wound it's done

Go down on your Knees
pray for all your sins
be ready to join your last lesson
Be ready to join your last kiss

Anne Claire, that is no love you got to share
Anne Claire, going into a sad lag of flair
Does she turn you on
diggin in her wound it's done

Good bye, good bye my poor boy
Good boy, good boy, no more toys


Crossing The Deadline

The sand, the sand it covers the land
it's just a victim
you didn't stop it
high noon and the walk brings the storm with it
born to it or lay on it

Day on day, night on night
with the thrill of a kid on my side
I will survive
As long as this trip will go
with my soul

I search for water
you need the cold
bring me some bubbles and a crown of gold
crossing the deadline befor it's too late
the finger snaps to the center of anger, wait

Cross the line you will suffer
(no bridge, just one step)
Cross the line...
(no bridge, no way back)
Cross the line...
(better give, better stand up)
Cross the line...
(better give up, better shut up)

So where's the mountain
I can't reach the top of this world


Don't You Turn Your Back On Me

Boy you're killing me
with your funny smile
my heart is beating loud as h***
I'm diving in your eyes

My whole life is upside and down
when you're chasing down my skin
the more I run away from you
the closer you draw near

Take me to the edge of feeling
heart against my skin
show me places I have longed for
in sanctitiy and sin

Locked intense inside my head
your touch will set me free
I hold on til the sun comes up
if you'll be there for me

I wonder if you let me down (4x)

Don't you turn your back on me
take a look at where you wanna be
Don't be scared of what you see
the only thing that's killing you is me

Now you're leaving me
with your angry eyes
my love gets lost with you
I was saving you last night

locked intense inside my head
your trust will set us free
the more you run away from me
the closer I draw near

I wonder... (4x)

Don't you...


Get Busy

What I am, what I am getting older
what I need is a man by my shoulder
what I am, what you are
allright I'm sick of your lying there

Look at me, look at me growing colder
everyday, I get a little bolder
what I am, what you are
allright I'm sick of your lying there

And when you lie there
why must I lie there

Why am I, why am I feeling stronger
now the days and the nights getting longer
what I am, what you are
allright I'm sick of your lying there

And when you lie there
why must I lie there

But I try to survive in a whores dress
something I'm getting out there keeps me god-blessed
my mother told me, priest just told me
too fast and you'll spend your whole life paying out
my brother's getting sicker, sicker
while my pretty sister sits there
bitchin' about her figure
time to move and get away
get away and open up to your freedom today

And when you lie there
why must I lie there


Gogan

I'm a little creature
just a tiny fool
the whipper snapper
to be your funny tool
The time will come
I'll call a friend
we will finish your game to the end

Oh yeah, I'm fine
you are not
Oh yeah, I'm blind
you are not
I'm fine , I'm fine, Shout your mouth

Take a step back, shout your mouth
and feel my deep breath
Blast your little faces, all around the world
man I'm so glad, that I got no controle
it's in me and even it's in you
come to me Gogan

5, 6 or 7, and 8 is out
today's of all days
I'm the chosen one
They close behind me
they're on my back
come try to catch me
get it in the neck

Oh yeah, I'm fine
you are not
Oh yeah, I'm blind
you are not
I'm fine , I'm fine, Shout your mouth

Take a step back, shout your mouth
and feel my deep breath
Blast your little faces, all around the world
man I'm so glad, that I got no controle
it's in me and even it's in you
come to me Gogan

Gogan's in me, come and try to catch me, come on

all the races that's for sure, fought to the finish
In the middle of your war, look at you, Gogan's in you


Heaven

The night comes
I'm not at home
bodies next to me
onthe ground
sons are running
over your screen
it is red now
where the grass once was green
standing, running, I'm back again
please don't look at me

my hands are not the same, mama
won't you forgive me my sins

Heaven lies over your
lies lying over your

The night is gone
the morning comes
my sun (son) is lost
in cloudy skies
Knights come home
being proud of their deeds
and I know you well

I miss you, I forgive you
I kiss you, but you are not here

Heaven lies over your
lies lying over your

frightning, your shining, rising, your fear, ...

Heaven lies over your
lies lying over your
Heaven lies over your
lies lying over your name


I Want It

I'm feeling like an angel
I'm feeling like a buttercup
we're sailing around the world
yeah, I like a kind of irony in my life

Don't you know, that I'm your angel
Don't you know, we are all paranoid
Don't you know, that I am angry
Yes we come out at night and surprise you
with our

Right now, I want it
Right now, you want it
you want it right now

Ha Ha Ha Ha
I'll bake you like cookies
Guano around the world
45° and we smile
we love what we do and you do what we want now

Right now, I want it
Right now, you want it
you want it right now

We're here, we're alive, we're around
and we acct like fools
Get up with the storm and running all my life
chickechicke...


Innocent Greed

Your ground is deep
my greed is deeper
I can see everything
nothing's between us
you will see through my eyes
I will see through your veins
don't you wanna listen
what the cause is
You hate!!
(I will see it through your eyes)
Too late!! (
I will see it through your veins)
Awake!!
Take me to the end of it

Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in me nothing
Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in you nothing

you've hurt me twice
you've shared it
ignored my pain
I'm scared of it
You will walk into my life
and I'll promise you the same
don't you wanna listen
what your love is
You hate!!
(You will walk into my life)
Too late!!
(But I'll promise you the same)
Awake!!
Take me to the end of it

Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in me nothing
Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in you nothing

I do believe
my greed is deeper than your love

Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in me nothing
Rage I feel ashamed now
'cos I can see deep in you nothing


Living In A Lie

Don't give me names
You've got it all, took it all from me
Drove me insane
Who'd come down to earth, releasing me
Healing my wounds
so why don't you close the door when you're leaving me
now you'll run
running all the way back to me again

I'm not to end in shame
to fight an endless lie
I'm not to play a game
I won't be on your side

(I) found a way
to reach myself again but all I saw was shame
Drive me away
there's something deep in me waiting to escape
you think you know me
so why don't you close the door when you're here with me

I'm here to end the game
I'm living in a lie
it's hard to give the same
I won't be on your side

I'm not to end in shame
to fight an endless lie
I'm not to play a game
I won't be on your side

I loved you a lot
to need you a lot
I leave you alone...


Lords Of The Boards

I've got the snowboard under my feet
I can fly so high, I can fall so deep
But who do I see comin' up the track
A little green man with the snowboard on his back

He said: And now I'm flying like an angel to the sun
My feet are burning and I grab into another world

With the lord of the boards you'll come and get around
With the lord of the boards, go mad like a clown

I can stay behind him if I can
I wanna be a little more than an "also-ran"
Through every curve He's got me beat
And maybe it's time that I accept defeat

And now I'm flying like an angel to the sun
My feet are burning and I grab into another world

With the lord of the boards you'll come and get around
With the lord of the boards, go mad like a clown (4x)


Maria

Maria, ...

Raw muscles in you
and you kill for the thrill to get into this
might not be sure
to get into the sin for the human race

Maria, ...

Raw muscles in you
and you kiss for the thrill to get into this
might not be sure
to get into the sin for the human race

Give it up and give up ...


Mine All Mine

See the signs, you left behind
I won't run into the trap, something's wrong, you're under control
your life has so much pain
and if water burns,(the) white bearded man,sucks out your soul
are you afraid, when I am strong
far's my mind, just my body that's here

You better run my darling
it's fear
it's now or never, nothing's real
keep your hands away, it's mine all mine

I'm honest man , and you just laugh
there's a fire in me, you talk too much, words won't last
I want to cry out loud
my spirit of life is to live with what is wrong
going with the tide, claim to be apart
far's your mind, it's just my body that's here

You better run my darling
it's fear
it's now or never, nothing's real
keep your hands away, it's mine all mine

see the signs on the wall
see the signs on the wall
no way, I'm out of here
die with all your money
trying to reach me
keep your hands away, it's mine all mine
keep your hands away
keep your hands away, it's mine all mine


Money and Milk

You want to live so perfect
in a world of money and milk
your time goes by
it's so sad to see
expose to lose your ground
I'll never be around

You don't try enough
so you won't get it
You don't try enough
You'll never get it

perhaps we live in peradise
and maybe noone cares
miricles everyday, everywhere
all the little fates you don't see
I'll never let them down
They ever be around

You don't try enough
so you won't get it
You don't try enough
You'll never get it

You don't try enough
so you won't get it
You don't try enough
You'll never get it
I will never have it
cos I never had it


Move a Little Closer

I'm dancing without my shoes
temperature's risin' high
I turn around and I kiss your face
suddently you smile

When I turn the radio on
body's starting to sway
I look around, try to catch your eyes
but you just walk away

It's gettin' hot now, the music's so loud
the rhythm takes me away
the bass is pumpin', the party's jumpin'
and I just wanna stay

move move move a little closer
move move move a little closer
keep groovin' to the beat

take a beat like this
when you move like that
do the hurricane
Yeah that's where It's at
Can you feel the groove
creepin' up real slow
take it step by step
here's my fist

I'm dancing without my shoes
temperature's risin' high
I turn around and I kiss your face
suddenly you smile.



Never Born

Love is like a shelter
brings me through the storm
Life is full of anger
maybe I'm dead again now
maybe there's life in me
so much stronger than the world gives it to me
here's the deal, leave it or not
what a surprise, your baby's unborn

Nothing else is deeper
Nothing else is good
Noone cares about the blood in you

I see you through that all
I feel you through the wall
Save my child and I save...

I in me and you are here now
Hold it, save it, never let me down again

I don't feel the darkness
don't feel anything
pressure's lost and pressure's good in me
don't move and don't hide secrets
play hard, don't play alone
move the soul without your own control

Nothing else is deeper ...

I in me and you are here now ...

What'cha sayin' ...
watch again...
why you're here...
noone cares...

I in me and you are here now ...


No Speech

O.K. Ready to take off
do it slow
I'm living on the bottom
I got to go
five little fingers
grabbing at the glass
gone, those days
now I'm running
up and down in my cage

Too late to defend, I'm buried - insane
don't you know there's more to life than to win
are you that kind of stereotype?
it's no time, there's no time
there's nothing I could answer

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home

Put away your flashing stick
don't try to get closer-through my head
give me a little bit more of your own
a little more, don't wanna be
anybody's clown

Too late to defend, I'm buried - insane
don't you know there's more to life than to win
are you that kind of stereotype ?
it's no time, there's no time
there's nothing I could answer

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home


Open Your Eyes


Hide your face forever
dream and search forever

Have you ever been for sale ?
when your isms get smart
oh so selfish and mindless
with that comment in your eye

Do you think that you are hard ?
really harder than the other
man you're acting cold
if you are not in charge

Don't split your mentality
without thinking twice
your voice has got no reason
now is the time to face your lies

Open your eyes, open your mind
proud like a god don't pretend to be blind
trapped in yourself, break out instead
beat the machine that works in your head

Will you offer me some tricks
if I ever need them
would you go into that room
if I call 'em

Do you think that you are better
really better than the rest
realize there's a problem
I know that you can give your best

Have you ever had a dream?
or is life just a trip?
a trip without chances
a chance to grow up quick

Open your eyes, open your mind ...

Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
night and night you feel nothing
there's no way outside of my land

Open your eyes, open your mind ...


Rain

I'm alone
can't wait until I feel your rain
so unreal
can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
I'm alone
can't sleep until I feel your rain

How can I find
Love, Faith and Trust inside of your rain
so unreal, can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
so untrue
help me to find through your warm rain

I send out my wishes
you gave me promises
why don't you feel the same
(I'm sad, I feel like a little child,
somebody left, there is no rain)

Oh no, I'm waiting
how about your rain?
I can't believe
I still believe in your rain
like in heaven
I can't wait until I feel your rain
so where's your life
who's living the rest of your life

I can't, I can't,
I can't live this life, I can't live this life
I can't see in your eyes
can't change it, no more tries
leave everyone with a smile
and you're sad, you feel like a little child
somebody's left there is no rain

I send out my wishes ...


Scapregoat

I will pray to lord
I run too far away from home

But I, when I will cross the sea alone
cos' I can feel the energy
when the lord's been crying
too many years

I will walk away for them
I see their thoughts in me again

But I, when I will dream this dream again
cos' I can take this blame on me now

when the lord has been crying for me
is my lord really crying
this long time for me?
for me again

But I, when I will dream this dream again
cos' I can take this blame on me now



Suzie

Hello, my name is Suzie
and I dream for a better, better glory
god bless you and I bless you
I'm angry why don't you squeeze me
the stage is my home and I guess when I roam
things could get out of my head
god bless you and I leave you
when the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah !

Hello, my name is Suzie
don't spit on that floor like a loony
I'll bite you, so don't bite me

I'm angry why don't you squeeze me
the pain is my home and I guess when I roam
things blow away my thoughts
god bless you and I catch you
when the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah !

Hello, it's still Suzie
ready to play what you like
ready to say what you don't say
immediately to do sports
suffering a new holocaust
don't hit me, you will miss me
when the weather is hot

Sucker, yeah !

Slide and winged all the memories
sing with me this little irony
You won't escapes from this reality
let us do such a sport activity
my time's too short
I missed the mark and
I can't remember why


Too Close To Leave

To be with you
you're so sweet
your naked body lies next to mine
and we're here
within touching you're skin with my eyes
I'm a river so deep in your arms
sharin the same heart
within don't let me be one of your stars

cos I live all the dreams you dream
and I see all the things you need
(you've been down with me
I'm to close to leave)

Enemy
seem to be
do you really think that you want me
coming through
into my heart
touching my soul here I start
don't talk when all words ain't enough
act like my man
we know life is rough
within hold on when time seems to stop

cos I live all the dreams you dream
and I see all the things you need
(you've been down with me
I'm to close to leave)
animating the sin in me
when I'm with you I leave reality

I let in
I let i the sin
I let in
I let i the sin...
you've been down with me
now I'm to close to leave

cos I live all the dreams you dream
and I see all the things you need
(you've been down with me
I'm to close to leave)
animating the sin in me
when I'm with you I leave reality



Wash It Down

Imagine all the words we're spitting
would be killing inside
being trapped in a jungle
be cool don't fight
there are no enemies no justice
but now you need revenge
everytime I show my faces
to earn your respect

I'm an absolute beginner
(she's an absolute beginner)
and I need to commit
(she needs to commit)

I wash it you kick it and spoil it with dirt
nevermind I've got two faces and one of it hurts

What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
What a dirty shirt
Wash it down

And when you roam with the storm
I'm coming your way
noone can stop me
it's the upcoming day
which shows you the thruth
and then your life gets confused
you might wash a white shirt without my lust

I'm an absolute beginner
(she's an absolute beginner)
and I need to commit
(she needs to commit)

I wash it you kick it and spoil it with dirt
nevermind I've got two faces and one of it hurts

What a dirty shirt ...



We Use The Pain

Could you step away, I'm a vicious girl
could you fill the break
we're on the right way, to swing the little axe
it's the right day, to give up the tax

We use the pain, for our fantasy
we need some pain to find the right way
we love the pain and want some more of it
control the pain, chickenhead !

Right way turning, listen we are learning
head full of noise
chickens got no choice
heads are rollin
chickenblood is stolen
the rest of the chicken
wants to picke-nicken

Could you feed your chicken, cause I'm hungering
drinks and chips for free
the muscles like Bruce Lee

We use the pain for our fantasy
we need some pain to find the right way
we love the pain and want some more of it
control the pain, chickenhead

Right way turning listen we are learning ...

Painfull, the table's red
big storm and no regret
dark side, we use the pain
captain, we are lost insane
mother, we cut the dump, mother
mother, we all, we all, we all

Right way turning, listen we are learning ...
