One More For The Road

Well I've never been here before
But I'm coming back tomorrow
For the real pain - a cold rain again

Nice day for a crucifixion
Heard a new prediction
That we can all be saved - so I'll have

One more for the road - play it again
One more for the road

Never heard this before
That a child can tell who's evil
But it's a good thing if we sing along

Cold day - we can make a fire
Burn another liar
Can witches ever die - hey let's burn

One more for the road - gimme the same again
One more for the road

Well I've never been here before
And the room is really empty
But there's a big line waiting for the show
Nice day for an execution
Another wrong conclusion
But someone's got to pay - so let's burn

One more for the road - same again
One more for the road

There's a child who just sees evil
And a man who just loves pain
But I've heard that we can't save them
So gimme me the same again

There's a cross that you can't carry
Cause it's heavier than hell
And if you should meet your maker
Just pray that he won't yell
One more for the road

One more for the road
One more for the road
One more for the road

Master Of The Moon

And then you dream
Of a world with only windows
Inside you - you can hide you
You know

And then the night
You're just another empty shadow
No questions - no answers
No one to scream at you

Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone you know
Hey you - you're just master of the moon

And then the eyes
If you look at them they'll blind you
Who are you - what are you
Why do you scream at me

Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone you know
Hey you - you're just master of the moon

We can shake you make you over
We just need some time to
Shed some light upon your darkness
We need your mind

And then you dream again
In a world that only you know
Inside you - you can hide you
No one to scream at you

Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone you know

I'll turn away and never face the sun
You never make me be like you
I'm master of the moon

The End Of The World

If I could sleep at night
Then somehow I'd see
Why everything's wrong
Or maybe it's just me
Does anybody know this place that I'm in
Why I might be alone
Imagination is a terrible thing
What if I'm wrong
But here's what I've been thinking
It must be the end of the world

What ever happened to the rock and roll song
Breaking your brain
Making you stronger
They say you never hear the bullet that kills
And I don't hear a sound

It's not about a change or revolution
What's gone today is still called substitution

Don't get emotional but we're out of time
The melody's gone
And fools have got the sunshine
If I'm mistaken and I see you again
Don't leave me alone
Maybe tomorrow
Could be the end of the world

Don't make wishes
Don't waste time
Call the ones you hate
You'd say I'm sorry but they'll have to wait
Fot the end of the world
Bye bye bye bye bye bye

Shivers

Fingers scratching blackboards
Make cowards of the brave
A natural reaction
From the cradle to the grave

Rats and bats and spiders
And little things that crawl
Never make me tremble
I'm bothered not at all

Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
What's this shakin'
You made me shiver

Cemetery midnights
Walking on the dead
Never seemed to matter
It's all inside your head

Names are only letters
Mentioned on a stone
And If you're going somewhere
You're going it alone

Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
What's this shakin'
You made me shiver

Magic charms and voodoo
And all those other spells
Didn't make impressions
I never slept so well

If I had a nightmare
I'm sure that I would know
I really don't remember
But I'm sure it isn't so

Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
What's this shakin'

Turn out the lights it won't matter
A bucket of blood and I'm still fine
A black cat's only a color
But you can do it any time

The Man Who Would Be King

Bless me father I must go away
To save us from the one's who don't believe
Confess me father I have sin but maybe
Angels really sing
Fot the man who would be king

We laugh at your religion
You people of the sand
We have no superstition
You can read it in our hands

Forgive me father for the change we bring
But it's all for the man who would be king

Don't leave a body standing
Not the holy not the small
Deliver us from evil
If it's yours we want it all

Lately father I've been wondering
Is the devil just the man who would be king

How can right be ever wrong
We are glory we are stronger than you

We never got an answer
But it's just too late to ask
The bloody flag was waving
And our hearts just ran too fast

Curse me father for the chains we bring
And don't believe the man who would be king

We never got an answer
Cause the question slipped my mind
I've been so busy killing
That I haven't found the right time

The Eyes

Oh no - they're at it again
Looking inside my secrets
Coming through cracks before I mend the wall

Get out - cause you're breaking the law
How did you ever find me
Places where I can hide can't get much smaller

I have invisible dreams
Where no one can touch me
Maybe I'll find a way to disappear

No one moves - and no one dies
Just the eyes

I've run as fast as I can
Thinking they'll never catch me
What a waste of breath a waste of time

Feel like digging a hole
Going in even deeper
Maybe they just can't see what just can't shine

I'll be lost - so no goddbyes
If no one moves then nothing dies
Just the eyes

Oh no - they've done it again
Sending out the detectives
Searching for signs of life and that means me

In my invisible dreams
When no one is watching
I'd make the whole world blind and I'd be free

I'll be lost - so no replies
If no one looks then no one dies
Just the eyes
Those eyes

Magic numbers
Even sacrifice
I can't find a way
Cause nothing stops the eyes

Living The Lie

When a milion miles from no where
Is still too close to home
You're with a hundred thousand people
And you still feel all alone

She was never in the circle
Or the round would be a square
And the more she seemed to want it
The less they seemed to care

Sold out and no admission
Too late to buy
It's never who it's only why
She's living the lie

When you're on your way to somewhere
But the elevator falls
Do you look for stairs to heaven
Or wander through the halls

He was only dedicated
To the ones who make the law
But they burned with too much fire
And his heart was made of straw

No ticket - no admission
Too late to buy
It's always he and he knows why
He's living the lie

Break down
How bad do you want it
How far will you go

If you're looking at tomorrow
To forget about today
Then the past will be your future
And it's there you'll always stay

What about the pictures
That smile from magazines
The ultimate temptation
Our new kings and all our queens

Such heat and too much pressure
Not worth the try
No more for them
Now it's I
And no more living the lie
Living the lie
Oh why
Live the lie

I Am

I think I'm through with just pretending
Knocking at a door
That I've been through before
Congratulations - at last you've seen my light
Now it's you against the night

I think I'm never coming after - after all
Now I've become the cat
Who always lets you know that

I Am I Am - stronger than the wind
I Am I Am sin
I Am I Am - stronger without you
I Am

For all the words gone unspoken
Silence isn't gold
Or the story's never told
Investigation - at last I've found my light
And we shine

So now I'm like the cat
Who always tells you this that

I Am I Am - stronger than the wind
I Am I Am sin
I Am I Am better without you
I Am

I think I'm way outside illusion
Breaking down the door
That locked me in before
Congratulations - now that you've see my light - after all

And when I become the cat
I'll always let you know that

I Am I Am - stronger than the wind
I Am I Am sin
I Am I Am - stronger without you
I Am

I Am I Am - brighter than the sun
I Am I Am everyone
I Am I Am - better without you
I Am

I Am I Am - stronger than before
I Am I Am more
I Am I Am - ready to go on
I Am

Death By Love

One night when the stars were right
For the gypsy queen
And she found she could drog you down
To a place that's in - between it all she's a
Madman with a delicate hand and evil eyes
And I've heard she'll only say a word
And that's enough to satisfy

Don't ask why
Don't even think about it
Brave men die
But what a way to go

She's not above
Death by love

One spell from the wishing well
And you're nevermore
Bad start for the sacred heart
Cause the end has come before the beginning

Knee deep in the darkest sleep
But the eyes see all
So high you could break the sky
And never feel the fall to come

Strong men die
But what a way to go

She's not above
Death by love

Don't ask why
Don't even think about it
Brave men die
But what a way to go

You've got symptoms of
Death by love
She's not above
Death by love

Don't ask why
Don't even guess about it
All men die
But this is death by love

In Dreams

Help me - save me
I've just crossed the line
Where reason might betray me
Wake me - shake me
Send a message to my brain
Before they take me
How can I get through to you
That wishes just come true
In dreams

Don't go - don't dare
Cause the journey drives you made
Before you get there
Help me - save me
I'll be glad to give you back
The hand you gave me
How can I get through to you
That wishes do come true
In dreams

If I'm a river - then you're the sea
Somewhere you'll find me
Alone and swimming here in ecstasy

If I am silence - you must be scream
But I don't hear you
I'm in a place that I've just never seen before

Don't go - you'll never save me
I've just slapped away
That helping hand you gave me
Don't wake me - Don't shake me
Here's a message from my brain
You'll never take me
How can I get through to you
That wishes do come true in dreams
In my dreams

The Prisoner Of Paradise

[Japan bonus track]

Bring me down drag me away from heaven
But look out angels guard the door
We all choose pain if pleasure is ordinary
Then we beg for more and more and more
Oh lock me up in an institution and throw away the key
Then I'm free the prisoner of paradise
Take me down I've gone too high so hurry how can this be real
I paid for the ride and got wishes for eternity
And here's one more I wish that you would steal them
Tie me down and don't believe me if I say I'm free
It's still me the prisoner of paradise
Bring me down if I could start all over would I do the same
Oh I'd try for a while then hunger for the recipe
And all I'd hear is isn't it a shame
Oh wrap me up in some chains
And you can push me out to sea
Cover me up with the ocean then I'm free
The prisoner of paradise
