Lyrics
strength in me
waking up in the middle of the night
can't put aside the hardships of life
just one soothing look of her
and I know everything's gonna be alright
it's getting harder and harder
harder every day
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
my problems are closing in on me
i feel I am about to suffocate
i am struggling to get to the surface
but can't see a way out of this situation
it's getting harder and harder
harder every day
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
i'm having to face my biggest enemy
my biggest enemy I tell you that is me
the battle is raging on and on
but I know it is the light at the end of the tunnel
it's getting harder and harder
harder every day
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
but I know there is strength in me
i can draw from, from deep within me
blind bastard
i used to be rich and famous
but i'm a poor poor beggar now
i have lost all i had and even more
only one amongst many in the gutter
what the hell have I come to
is it really me in the mirror
my whole life comes tumbling down
my whole life seems wasted
my whole life i struggled for the wrong things
my whole life seems wasted
do you wanna here my story
sit down and stay for a while
always fighting for money and power
always fighting those close to me
my family was never ever safe from me
my family considered me an enemy
this was never of importance to me
until i lost it all
my whole life comes tumbling down
my whole life seems wasted
my whole life i struggled for the wrong things
my whole life seems wasted
this is the story of a blind man
who never ever wanted to learn
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
blind blind bastard
my whole life comes tumbling down
my whole life seems wasted
my whole life i struggled for the wrong things
my whole life seems wasted
ethereal
i fly way up in the sky
and see your world beneath me
believe me
i don't wanna
hurt you any longer
i dream myself into your dreams
see what you see
see what is real
baby reality doesn't even mean a thing to me
i've got pride,
i've got fear
i've got prejudices
and all are bad advice
so i ask you not to leave me
please never ever
never ever leave me
i fly way up in the sky
and see the stars above me
someone told me
they were a thousand
pinholes
in the cloak of night
there are a thousand pinholes
we have inflicted
upon our soules
but i know they are healing
mended tissue
is stronger than before
i've got pride,
i've got fear
i've got prejudices
and all are bad advice
so i ask you not to leave me
please never ever
never ever leave me
i fly way up in the sky
and feel the clouds around me
you found me
and showed me
the way to myself
let me be the wind that ruffles your hair
let me be the sun that tickles your nose
let me be the joke that makes you laugh
let me be the man that makes you love
i've got pride,
i've got fear
i've got prejudices
and all are bad advice
so i ask you not to leave me
please never ever
never ever leave me
never leave me
never leave me
please never ever
never ever leave me
never ever leave me
father
father i never knew you
and i never will
'cause you died when i was too young
i've got good memories
but the bad ones
they seem to linger much longer
the good ones banned on photographs
the others have been burned
burned so deep into my soul
[Chorus]
this pain inside of me
i fear will never fade away
this pain inside of me
i fear will always stay
i hardly ever think of you
no part of everyday life
all the same you're a part of me
fragments of violence
love, fear and happiness
stigmata of a broken family
your father was your seed of grief
maybe his mother was his
next generation's heritage
i hope i'm gonna break this chain
but noone can know
only the future will show
[Chorus] x 4
stay, stay, stay...
up n' down
running up and down the street
don't know what to do with me
who is this enemy
tell me what is wrong with me
up is down, left is right
black is white, dark is bright
someone tell me what is right
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
but i do know
it's all about us
are you friend and am i foe
is this the essence of what i should know
now it's long past time to show
that i can take the path i have to go
i'm the one that turned day to night
i'm the one to blame for the missing light
i so much want to set things right
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
but i do know
it's all about us
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
but i do know
it's all about us
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
i can't remember what she said
that left me almost dead
liar
you walk through life without consequences
you don't care if you lay waste to everything
around you
your concern is not to be hurt
and not to be seen for what you really are
really are
how am i to trust you? shall i lie to myself
like you lie to me?
my trust seems lost
you won't keep your promises
priorities set on taking the easy way
no matter what the cost
no matter what the cost
you fucking liar be honest to me
you do owe me for all those years
you fucking liar be honest to me
you do owe me for all those years
you allow fear to rule your life
like you'd never allow anyone else
around you
there are bad decisions you make
in particular the ones that you don't
that you don't ever make
i hate those times you boost your self-esteem
at my expense without even noticing
even noticing
in the end i think i just can't go on
the way i always did
no matter what the cost
no matter what the cost
you fucking liar be honest to me
you do owe me for all those years
you fucking liar be honest to me
you do owe me for all those years
sovereignty
the western world's living in fear of suicide bombers
governments all over the planet try to stoke our fears
a people that is scared will long for alleged security
do you really believe we'll get back our rights one day
fight for your freedom and never give up
remember the sovereignty of the people
they won't let us live beyond their control
unless we all try to resist
wherever you go by car they'll know where you are
wherever you use your mobile they'll know where you are
whom you've been coresponding with won't be a secret
fingerprints for prosecution in our passports is reallity to be
fight for your freedom and never give up
remember the sovereignty of the people
they won't let us live beyond their control
unless we all try to resist
hey all you people this is not a science fiction story
it's not a passage from Orwell's 1984
it's our so called representatives' vision of the future
so if you wanna make a difference follow my appeal and enter the battle
fight for your freedom and never give up
remember the sovereignty of the people
they won't let us live beyond their control
unless we all try
unless we all try
unless we all try to resist
said and done
if i were in your place
if i were you
would i still be the same
what would be true
no matter where i've been to
no matter what i've seen
it seems that i've never
laid eyes on you
i never want to be the one
that tells you what to do
instead i'd rather be the one
to find what might be you
when all is said n done
...all is said n done
...all is said n done
it doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
drowning in a world of phoneys
in a world of fakes
i need to breathe some honesty
can't tell what it takes
compassion is a thread of hope
buried under life's weight
it's too easy to lose one's self
there's no reason to rest
i never want to be the one
that tells you what to do
instead i'd rather be the one
to find what might be you
when all is said n done
...all is said n done
...all is said n done
it doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
i never want to be the one
that tells you what to do
instead i'd rather be the one
to find what might be you
when all is said n done
...all is said n done
...all is said n done
it doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
...doesn't pay to run
tangled travels
i don't know what is going on here
i don't know how it's gonna be there
is all i know that i don't know a thing
i don't know, i don't know
let me take you on a journey you won't forget
stay right behind me and you'll get lost in the maze of your mind
in the maze of your amazing mind
i don't know what is going on here
i don't know how it's gonna be there
is all i know that i don't know a thing
i don't know, i don't know
what you get is what you see but what you see isn't real
let me be your entertainer, i'll entertain you to a meal
to a meal of broken memories
i don't know what is going on here
i don't know how it's gonna be there
is all i know that i don't know a thing
i don't know, i don't know
i don't know what is going on here
i don't know how it's gonna be there
is all i know that i don't know a thing
i don't know, i don't know
asshole
whenever you needed me
i was always there for you
no matter what the time
no matter what i had to do
you were never really grateful
never appreciated what i did
always took everything for granted
i'm fed up with all this shit
[Chorus]
i wanna be an asshole
an old motherfucker
if you know what i mean
i'm gonna rip my heart out
lock it away
so i won't feel a thing
it's gonna hurt
your soul's gonna burn
i'm going down
a oneway track
i will be there
at every turn
conquer your world
and paint it black
whenever i needed you
something else was more important
all your friends and family
had top priority
now it's my turn to walk away
listen to me, now it's payback time
rage's about to burst into flames
and i got to tell you
[Chorus]
now it's my turn to walk away
listen to me, now it's payback time
now it's my turn to walk away
listen to me, now it's payback time
now it's my turn to walk away
listen to me, now it's payback time
[Chorus]
it's gonna hurt, hurt, hurt
your soul's gonna burn, burn, burn
it's gonna hurt
your soul's gonna burn
i'm going down
a oneway track
i will be there
at every turn
conquer your world
and paint it black
panic
i've been running
i've been hiding
for how long i don't know
they're right behind me
they will find me
oh fuck i'm doomed
never see them
only feel them
but i know that they are coming
reality is
slowly fading
into nothingness
welcome to my world
my world of shadows
where only nightmares rule
there's a bomb within my head
it's been there for a long time
there's a bomb within my head
hidden right in plain sight
there's a bomb within my head
it's ticking its time away
there's a bomb within my head
exploding into panic
believing nothing
trusting noone
not even my own eyes
heart is pumping
muscles bulging
i'm being torn asunder
bound and broken
shards of madness
slicing into sanity
behind the curtains
in every corner
they're waiting for me
welcome to my world
my world of shadows
where only nightmares rule
there's a bomb within my head
it's been there for a long time
there's a bomb within my head
hidden right in plain sight
there's a bomb within my head
it's ticking its time away
there's a bomb within my head
exploding into panic
there's a bomb within my head
it's been there for a long time
there's a bomb within my head
hidden right in plain sight
there's a bomb within my head
it's ticking its time away
there's a bomb within my head
exploding into panic
