Bless Me
Bless me said the lonely boy
Bless me said the lonely girl
why does no one love me
why will no one ever tell me why
Bless me said the lonely man
Bless me said the lonely man
Now that my wife left me
Who is gonna fill my dreams at night
I try but I don't succeed, It's only life
Made for changing and there for the rest of time
Bless me for the love of God
Bless me for the love of God
Can't you understand me,
try to make a difference in my life
I just don't belong here
And everyone can see it in my eyes
Bless me
Bless me said the lonely man
Bless me
I'd kill for love
I'd kill for love
Bless me
Bless me
Bless me
I'd kill for love
I'd kill for love
Bless me
Bless me
Bless me
Love is all
Kabi kabi mere dil me khayal ata he
Lately
Lately I've had so much on my mind
Patience, must be patient, give it time
Hold on to this moment, hold on tight
You say, time waits for no man
I'll wait I will trust in destiny
Place faith in my own ability
Lately I've had so much on my mind
Maybe life will bring to me what's mine
Hold on, to this moment, hold on tight
You say, time waits for no man
The Brakes Are Gone
The brakes are gone
And the less I think about it, the better
It only makes me feel what I don’t want to feel
Holding onto memories of you
Save me, save me from myself, please
The fear I have is real fear
That everyone and everything feels
It’s not a love thing
It’s like a special gift to me
Something I wanted
But left behind and never found again
The sentence doesn’t fit the crime
Imprisoned by the gift of time
And knowing I’m alone again tonight
Awake me, I sleep inside this memory
I need to find a new dawn
A sun that lights this misery
It’s not a love thing
It’s like a special wish to me
Something I wanted but left behind
And never found again
And I can see it so clear
I know it’s there I try to bring it near
I only wanted to believe and hold on
The special feeling’s all I have
I really feel the meaning of
Inner strength might fall away but
I know I’ll get it back some day
And I can see it so clear
I know it’s there I try to bring it near
I only wanted to believe and hold on
The brakes are gone
And the less I think about it, the better
Razorlite
Razorlite, see a different life
You're running wild through the death of night
And from the days of your crisis
Are memories that you can not forget
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight
Foolish dreams, won't change anything
All you'll ever have is what the future brings
The blossom has gone, with every season
And you've got so many reasons to ask why, tonight
Is all you wanted, anything you need
The voices in your head all dissagree
Razorlite, it's all black and white
You know that's it's up to you, if you live to die
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight
Close your eyes
Razorlite
Raise a light Razorlite, see a different life
You're running wild through the death of night
And from the days of your crisis
Are memories that you can not forget
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight
Foolish dreams, won't change anything
All you'll ever have is what the future brings
The blossom has gone, with every season
And you've got so many reasons to ask why, tonight
Is all you wanted, anything you need
The voices in your head all dissagree
Razorlite, it's all black and white
You know that's it's up to you, if you live to die
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight
Close your eyes

Propaganda Man
Just another lie
On a different day
Something to believe in
For evil to embrace
And to feast on, bad ideals
Just to wipe out all these infidels
Propaganda man
Propaganda man
In a sorry state
Forlorn man
Practicing his faith
That you don't understand
Looks for answers, material
He'll wait until time in memorial
Propaganda man
Life alone is no match for dreams
Looking through the mist
Will not allow you to see clear
Why owe, a debt to your soul
You will always reap what you have sewn
Propaganda man
Propaganda man
Propaganda man
When life's door is closed in your face
And you have taken steps
To wipe out all the human race
Wash away the blood from off your soul
Let it flow into the promised land
Of propaganda man, propaganda man
Propaganda man
Propaganda man Just another lie
On a different day
Something to believe in
For evil to embrace
And to feast on, bad ideals
Just to wipe out all these infidels

Frequency
The death city radio, pours out of the open window
Static fires into the atmosphere
And moments and memories
Are lost to the frequencies, in the air.
And the sad face on reality is no longer sitting next to me
A smile appeared to dry the tears away
And the demons and angels
Are tolling on the iron bell, in the streets
Alive to me, love heals me fills all lost souls
These days are golden once more
And I've been forsaken too often
It's all inside me
Better to live life I'm sure you'll agree
I save myself, from me again
Go on and fight another day
With no door left unopened
I know you must be looking for the way ahead
Alive to me, love heals me fills all lost souls
These days are golden once more
The death city radio, pours out of the open window
The static fires into the atmosphere
And moments and memories are lost to the frequencies, in the air
Modern Day Miracle
You once were trusted friend
Relied on your every word
Just like a modern day miracle
They could not find a cure for
A last and final wish
Just something maybe worth living for
I wish that could erase
Put myself in a different place
This felling is washing right over me
It cuts right to the core
Don't have much left to give
It's maybe something worth living for
I don't ask for too much,
Just bring me back from the dead
Don't break my spirit, hold a gun to my head
Your act was so selfish, it was greed
I'm sorry I tried my best
I've given up, I'm out of this
In time you'll remember just what you had
Much later much too later
You must be mesmerised
You say it's a sign you must follow it
Fool
Your mistake
No regrets
Your mistake
Cosmic Baby
I don’t want to wait around too long
You better not let me down
You better not leave me here
You better not try to change things
You better not disappear
You better not take revenge
You better wait till the end
You better not back the loser
You better not try to see her again
You better not try to see her again
I don’t wanna wait around too long
The life was made for me
This life was meant for me
You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay
You better not no you better not
You better not find your peace
You better not get release
You better not fall on stony ground
You better not let your guard down
The life was made for me
I don’t wanna wait around too long
You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay for this
You better not no you better not
Cosmic baby, cosmic baby
You better not let me down
You better not leave me here
You better not try to change things
You better not disappear
You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay for this
You better not no you better not
Cosmic baby
The life was made for me, cosmic baby
I don’t wanna wait around too long
Cosmic baby
The life was meant to be, cosmic baby
I don’t wanna wait around too long
I don’t wanna wait around too long
Things Don't Stop
Things don't stop
Just because life gets tough
You feel like giving in
Pleasure or pain
Live without foolish intentions
Things don't stop
Certain as sure enough
You're not a falling rock
Breaking to pieces
Scattering over the ground
Things don't stop
If you fall down stand up
Brush off the grains of rust
Be good to yourself
I hope you hear what I'm saying
Things, things, things, things
Things don't stop
Don't even think you've lost
Mindfull of all you have
Pleasure or pain
Live without foolish intentions
Things don't stop
Run once you've learned to walk
You're not a falling rock
Breaking to pieces
Scattering over the ground
Things, things, things (2x)
[SOLO]
More Propaganda
Through a troubled life, an indifferent gaze
A bleeding tortured mind, a failure to amaze
Propaganda man, propaganda man, propaganda man
When life's door is closed in your face
And you have taken steps to wipe out all the human race
Then wash away the blood from off your soul
Let it flow into the promised land of propaganda man
Propaganda man, propaganda man, propaganda man...

On The Other Side
If I was a stranger, I'd still call this home
Even through the changes, in life I have known
What lies in the future now, is destiny's game
No point asking questions, the answer doesn't change
I just want to live a life, that teaches me the dark and light
And discipline the part of me, that needs to run away
I don't forget the memories, the fear hasn't gone
The loneliness of nightime and distance till dawn
Finally I understand and won't be going there again
It's confident to my history, I hope it's there for good
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
No loneliness with you
It I had a need I would surely need you
To help me with the changes that life puts me through
And forget all the other times that someone broke this heart of mine
Every time a lesson learned, it wasn't meant for me
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My home is here with you
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My only wish comes true If I was a stranger, I'd still call this home
Even through the changes, in life I have known
What lies in the future now, is destiny's game
No point asking questions, the answer doesn't change
I just want to live a life, that teaches me the dark and light
And discipline the part of me, that needs to run away
I don't forget the memories, the fear hasn't gone
The loneliness of nightime and distance till dawn
Finally I understand and won't be going there again
It's confident to my history, I hope it's there for good
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
No loneliness with you
It I had a need I would surely need you
To help me with the changes that life puts me through
And forget all the other times that someone broke this heart of mine
Every time a lesson learned, it wasn't meant for me
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My home is here with you
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My only wish comes true
