Helloween - I Want Out Album Lyrics

---

I Want Out

From our lives' beginning on
We are pushed in little forms
No one asks us how we like to be
In school they teach you what to think
But everyone says different things
But they're all convinced that
They're the ones to see

[Bridge:]
So they keep talking and they never stop
And at a certain point you give it up
So the only thing that's left to think is this

[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free

People tell me A and B
They tell me how I have to see
Things that I have seen already clear
So they push me then from side to side
They're pushing me from black to white
They're pushing 'til there's nothing more to hear

[Bridge:]
But don't push me to the maximum
Shut your mouth and take it home
'Cause I decide the way things gonna be

[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free

There's a million ways to see the things in life
A million ways to be the fool
In the end of it, none of us is right
Sometimes we need to be alone

[Solo: Kai/Both]

No no no, leave me alone

[Chorus:]
I want out--to live my life alone
I want out--leave me be
I want out--to do things on my own
I want out--to live my life and to be free

Save Us

Too late to call for the priest
He is not here anymore
We look at the age of the beast
And we've seen its vast armies form
Hear our call

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
Please, save us

In permanent madness we live
No time for life and for love
To take is the rule, not to give
Insanity comes from below
To take us all

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
Please, save us

We believe that the phenomena of nature
Are the expression of infinitive intelligence
We express our belief that all forms of life
Are manifestations of spirit
And thus, all men are children of God

Far from down below one comes prepared to take us all
Waiting for his future and the final call

[Solo: Both/Kai/Mike/Both]

We stand on the edge of the world
Just one step more and we fall
Guide us and please take our hands
Without you we're weak and alone
Hear our call

[Chorus:]
Please, save us
Please, save us

Now!

[Solo licks: Kai]

Save us--from the gods of thunder
Save us--from the dogs of war
Save us--from the creeping nightmares
Save us--from the evil's course
Save us--from our own ignorance
Save us--from the man in black
Save us--from the desolation
Save us--from the hate attack
Save us--oh please
Save us--please save us
Save us--oh please
Save us--now!

Don't Run For Cover

You hide, won't fight
Avoid the daylight
Give in, won't win
No try to make it right

Why don't you stop crying
Stop your painful dying
Why don't you give your life a sense

One game, one aim
But you're always sleeping
One light so bright
In darkness you're creeping

Why don't you use your head
Step out of your warm bed
And stop being on anxious rat

[Bridge:]
Run - for your destination
Fly - to the sun
Don't give a damn what the people may say
It's like a chain on your leg
When you always look back
If you don't risk anything one day you'll pay

[Chorus:]
Don't run for cover
Don't cry alone
Make a step on your stairway
One step closer to what you live for
Don't run for cover
Don't throw away
The only chance that you got
To be the fire in a hot life you choose

No pride, no right ?
In your heart is more strength
You know, I know
Your destiny's in your hand

Now you have this time
To survive don't be blind
In this world where so many can't see

[Bridge:]
Try - to catch the key
Make - that you can see
The light of your life your way to go
So many hearts in these times
Are so cold they can't find
Their own power to win they don't know

[Repeat chorus]

[Solo: both / Kai / both / Kai]

[Repeat bridge / chorus]
