Album Lyrics

1. Last Goodbye

Crime is done, I’m alone in the night
There’s no one to save and there’s no one to fight
Now you’re gone and I’m just looking around
Chasing shadows and traces in the sky, on the ground

I pay (I pay) for the miracle
Father, don’t take him away
Rise up (rise up) for a miracle
Save him or don’t let me stay…

Such a shame now you’re out of my reach
And it hurts – I don’t know should I curse, should I preach?
(Play the game) put a gun to your head
Smile – give me a shot – pull the trigger, you’re dead…

(Going down, down) you’re going (down, down)
Oh you’re going down all the way, down to the needle park
(Down, down) down you’re going
(Going down, down) you’re going down like a little kid
Lost in the dark…

Day by day (day by day), crossing oceans of pain
God I wish I could stop this old runaway train
Far away, oh like a shadow, a ghost,
Now the magic is gone and the spirit is lost…

(Last, last goodbye) you’ll take yours and I’ll take mine
Dance around a candle like a butterfly – can you tell me why?
(Last, last goodbye) bitter as the silent cry
Blowing out the chance for a second try
Just another try!
(Last, last goodbye) you’ll take yours and I’ll take mine
Dance around a candle like a butterfly – can you tell me why?
(Last, last goodbye) bitter as the silent cry
Blowing out the chance for a second try
Just another try!

“Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.”

2. 1348

(Future’s coming from the past)
(Who is first and who is last?)

Fire’s rising off the ground
Fear’s the king, entire town
Looking up across the sky
Which one’s turn to die…

All are one and world’s apart
Undertakers working hard
You’ll remember the loss of fate
December ‘48…

Devil’s mark is on your face
Black Death’s all around the place
Rotten bodies it’s where it at
Friends are gone, and rats get fat

Cross on fire, fights the night
Who will ever see the light?
Crowd in front of the Heaven’s Gate,
December ‘48, December ‘48…

3. Makin’ a Mess

I was raised in a faraway land
Trying to be number one
Dad use to tell me:
Whatever you do, never let go ‘til you’re done

I was fighting as anyone
I was twisted around
I was broke just as anyone
On the way, way down

(Never ever settle for less)
Raise your hand – it’s to kill or to bless
(Never ever settle for less)
Who needs the crown when your head’s on the ground?
Let me out, I’m just makin’ a mess

Chip on my shoulder and look on my face
Changing my life on the fly
Too late to make it and too late to stop
Too late to figure out why

I was fighting as anyone
I was twisted around
I was broke just as anyone
On the way, way down

(Never ever settle for less)
Raise your hand – it’s to kill or to bless
(Never ever settle for less)
Who needs the crown when your head’s on the ground?
Let me out, I’m just makin’ a mess

The wind of sadness can shade the heart of gold
I’m gonna leave it all behind
I’m praying for a break – if I could face the world
Without the sadness on my mind…

(Never ever settle for less)
Raise your hand – it’s to kill or to bless
(Never ever settle for less)
Who needs the crown when your head’s on the ground?
(Never ever settle for less)
Raise your hand – it’s to kill or to bless
(Never ever settle for less)
Who needs the crown when your head’s on the ground?
Let me out, I’m just makin’ a mess

4. Far Away

Ah…
Ah…

In the misty morning after darkest night
I feel the heat, I do, and I remember
Promises are broken, now that you’re gone
Don’t turn me down, I’m lost and I surrender

Give me just a sign (please hear me)
Help to cross the line (don’t leave me)
We’ll turn back the time and start again

Far away – I can hear you’re calling
Now you’re far away – calling up my name
Oh you’re far away – while the tears keep falling down
You’re far away – and no one is to blame…

Some feelings won’t come easy
You have to hit them hard
You’ve burned the bridge and I fell in a sea of sorrows
Can you hear my prayer?
Just bring back yesterday
I feel the pain, it makes me hate tomorrow…

Take me for a while (please take me)
Just to see me smile (make me)
I wish I’ll never ever cry again!

Far away – I can hear you’re calling
Now you’re far away – calling up my name
Oh you’re far away – while the tears keep falling down
You’re far away – and no one is to blame…

Give me just a sign (please hear me)
Help to cross the line (don’t leave me)
We’ll turn back the time and start again!

Far away – I can hear you’re calling
Now you’re far away – calling up my name
Oh you’re far away – while the tears keep falling down
You’re far away – and no one is to blame…

Far, far away…
You are so far away
You are so far, so far away!
You are so far away…

5. Step by Step

Switch blade dance, and your friend goes down
I’m gonna hit you once and you’ll kiss the ground
It’s a sweet romance, no good and clown
Boy listen there’s a new kid coming
And he’s gonna rock this town
(He’s gonna rock it)

I see the writing on the wall
No one’s to blame, nobody’s fault

(Step by step) I got lost and never found
(Step by step) can’t find my way around
(Step by step) take a break, don’t you put me down
(Step by step) (hand’s down) I’m busted to the ground

Kid’s getting tough
It’s like a civil war (a proper war)
You better keep your ass behind that solid door
Looks like it’s never enough
You keep on coming for more
Somebody tell me why and what we’re fighting for?
I’m standing back against the wall
Which one of us is gonna fall…

(Step by step) I got lost and never found
(Step by step) can’t find my way around
(Step by step) take a break, don’t you put me down
(Step by step) I’m busted to the ground

I’m standing back against the wall…

(Step by step) I got lost and never found
(Step by step) can’t find my way around
(Step by step) take a break, don’t you put me down
(Step by step) I’m busted to the ground
(Step by step) I got lost and never found
(Step by step) can’t find my way around
(Step by step) take a break, don’t you put me down
(Step by step) (hand’s down)

7. Stay Down

They have promised you the world
And left you on your own
All your life is built on fear
Lies and hearts of stone

And now I realize
The promises were lies
I’m walking endless miles
I can’t believe my eyes…

Are you fighting for survive?
It’s a lousy way to live
A wish to make it through the night
And nothing else to give

And now I realize
The promises were lies
I’m walking endless miles
I can’t believe my eyes…

(Stay down, low down)
Nobody cares if you’re still hanging around
(Stay down, low down)
Who will you run to and who will you pray to when you’re down on the ground?

Who will help you when you fall?
(Who will pull you up?)
When you’re praying for revenge
Who will make you stop?

And now I realize
The promises were lies
I’m walking endless miles
I can’t believe my eyes…

(Stay down, low down)
Nobody cares if you’re still hanging around
(Stay down, low down)
Who will you run to and who will you pray?
(Stay down, low down)
Nobody cares if you’re still hanging around
(Stay down, low down)
Who will you run to and who will you pray to when you’re down on the ground?
(Stay down, low down)
(Stay down, low down)
(Stay down, low down)
(Stay down, low down)

8. Give It Up

Give it up just let it flow
Keller’s running TV show
Razor blade in action – everything is “live”
Scandal makes a paper “hot”
You may like it, you may not
Marriage, rape, divorce, somebody’s butchered wife

Empire rise, they’re built on lies
In the children’s eyes, I’ll never (give it up)
Never ever (give it up)
Oh, I said I’ll never (give it up)
Give it up…

Little kid some place abroad
Shot dead by the terror squad
Only one? Just not enough to ring a bell
TV preacher will love to tell you
Pay a dime and God’s for sale
Don’t get scared, it’s just another day in hell.

Empire’s turn, they’re built burn
We’ll never learn – I’ll never (give it up)
Oh… I said I never ever (give it up)
Never (give it up)
Never give it up…

(Give it up) oh never will
(Give it up) you know I never will
(Give it up, give it up) oh…
(Give it up) don’t give up
(Give it up)
(Give it up, give it up) oh…
(Give it up)
(Give it up)

9. Time

Time, how long it’s gonna lasts?
I’m living in the past and running out of time!…

I keep running around in circles
I keep walking in the dark
I keep trying to wash away the devil’s mark

I have my reasons to remember
I have my reasons to forget
I have my reasons to reject a safety net

‘Cause we’ll all fall down on the cold, cold ground
Don’t you turn around (…who’s crime?…)

I’m running out of time…
I’ve wasted all my time…
I’m gonna need some time…
I’m running out of time…

I’m gonna finish off confusions
I’m gonna leave it all for good
I’m gonna quit on being left misunderstood

I’m getting rid of my illusions
I’m getting tired of the crowd
I’m getting out, I’m checking out
I’m getting out

‘Cause we’ll all fall down on the cold, cold ground
Don’t you turn around (who’s crime?)

I’m running out of time…
I’ve wasted all my time…
I’m gonna need some time…
I’m running out of time!…

Time…
I’ve wasted all my time…
I’m gonna need some time…
I’m running out of time…
I’m gonna need some time…
I’m running out of time!…
