Fire 04:28
I was dreaming In my sleeping Of a place so far away and I’m so lost I could see it In my dreaming In my sleeping All is consumed all is consumed In the fire of devotion I was dreaming In my sleeping Of two wings far away and I’m so lost I could see them In my dreaming In my sleeping All is consumed all is consumed In the fire of devotion

Fuck the people Blame it on the establishment Fuck the weather Blame it on the government Fuck kill Bill Fuck kill fill Fuck the ones that make me ill King of money Shame on the lost in war King on the hill Shame on the killing floor Past and futurre things Shame on the touch and go King of nothing Wave goodbye and say hello If you could stay with me If you could wait and see The Phoenix’s waiting The Phoenix smiles and flaps its wings Don’t look back in anger

NY City Rain 03:49
It’s been a long time since I’ve spoken to you Is this the right time It wasn’t me who wrote that song But it suits youi well, like a velvet glove Your lack of conscience and your lack of morality Clearly show you’re cheap uptown dirt If I met you on a plane I would kick you out If I found you laying in the dirt I’d leave you there To be cleaned away by the NY City rain It’s been a long time since I’ve spoken to you Is this the right time It wasn’t me who wrote that song I’m not that good I wish I were If I met you at the gates of Hell I would kick you in If I found you laying in the dirt I’d leave you there To be cleaned away by the NY City rain

Despair 05:11
When the son of a God Reaches the deepest heart of despair It’s the end of a world And nothing remains But ashes in time This I felt as my hope were crushed In the end of tiredness And stupidity of men What could I do But run away It was too much for me Too much of despair But something strong forces me to carry on Something strong I met long ago In times like these I feel so low But then I know His eyes, so bright Looking so low But they’re made of stone Something strong forces me to go To carry on Something strong I knew long ago Long ago Could this be the end Of the travels I made To the end of time I feel so low But there’s nothing to fear Waiting for tears And I know this will be the end I feel so tired It’s been so long since I felt The power of God It’s not here anymore And I think it’s just my fault There’s nothing to fear but fear

Living on a prayer And a prayer is not enough Living on a wing But it’s an ill wind blowing Inspiration Sublimation We were young And I was dumb Just a whip on me

Come to Me 04:16
Come to me now I’ve been waiting for a moment I’ve been waiting for a no man I’ve been waiting for someone Shining brightly as the stars I’ve been looking at the sky And it’s too far I’m in this world Not of this world Until you come I’ve been waiting for a bright world I’ve been waiting for a bright glow I’ve been loving every corner in the maze of purple I’ve been looking at the sky And it’s too far I’m in this world Not of this world Until you come Come to me Now Come Sha la la la la Until you come

My Shout 05:21
Listen to my shout And tell what you want to change of me Listen to my shout And tell what you want to change in me Not me Pushing hard pushing so hard Losing everythig Pushing hard pushing so hard Fading into nothing Not me And now I’m looking through the screen And my face is probably not me

In ages of fire and ice In ages of killing sons I woke up the sleeping beast In a camouflage of beauty I’ve been losing my mind I’ve been losing again I’ve been losing all things I’ve seen In the treasure of the light sweet and golden And the Sun will rise I’ve been looking for love In the strangest places I’ve been looking for pain In the sweetest placest I’ve been loosing my mind I’ve been losing again I’ve been losing the words that I’d say In the wake of tomorrow And the Sun will rise

Solipsism is a key Shielding me from life Solipsism is fake Shielding me from you I’ve been in the wasteland How long I couldn’t say Dialysis is a fake And surgery won’t help And I never thought it hard So few and yet so sweet Stay with me in memories That cannot be denied Stay with me in memories You know how much I lied Stay with me in memories Not in dreams, I beg And the shadows of the rain Will bring atonement This is mask is just a fake Shielding me from life This armour is a friend’s Shielding me from you I’ve been in the wasteland How long I couldn’t say I’ve been in the wasteland But now I cannot stay And I never thought it hard So few and yet so sweet Stay with me in memories That cannot be denied Stay with me in memories You know how much I lied Stay with me in memories Not in dreams, I beg And the shadows of the rain Will bring atonement Now I live In the shadows of the rain Now I see you waiting for me Showing the way straight to the sun Now I live In the shadows of the rain

His House 06:25
In his house a sun is born In his house a love is torn In his house there’s no tomorrow In his house there’s no return In his house I buy and learn I could wait for him forever In his house I she no tear In his house I have no fear In his house there’s no tomorrow On this road to the Sun In his house all is done I could wait for him forever Listening to the shadows’s lies Speaking words of black defeat Crushing worlds of molten ash Holy Water for my thirst All alone – in the danger zone

Shining from above I saw you strip the form Streaming the flows of life Your castle is the goal Take my soul to rest Beyond the reach of jealous gods On your wings Shining from above I saw you hold my heart Streaming the flows of dew Your castle is the goal Join my souol to thine In the abodes of formless fire On your wings
