01. City Light

As the night turns everything black
Human fear'll come creeping back
Tear apart your desperate fright
But as a rescue; city light
Glimpse of neon hits your eyes
While you get beaten by violet guys
Sound of sirens though the night
But as a rescue; city light

If blood's the answer to darkness pain
No one will ever walk the streets again
Has told the cops about that dreadful night
But as a rescue; city light

Are you hurt some voices mutter
As your blood runs down the gutter
Someone saw a face through the night
But as a rescue; city light
Darkness melts before my eyes
As the last bit of witchcraft dies
Killed this nightmare to giant sighs
But as a rescue city light

If blood's the answer to darkness pain
No one will ever walk the streets again
Has told the cops about that dreadful night
But as a rescue; city light

As the morning reaches a point of greed
Voices of horror reject my plea
A giant explosion of human fright
But as a rescue; city light
Had it all been a game in my mind
A search for thrills that you cannot find
How much more can you stand these nights
But as a rescue; city light

If blood's the answer to darkness pain
No one will ever walk the streets again
Has told the cops about that dreadful night
But as a rescue; city light

02. Fantasy

I see the stars are falling down from the sky
In the summer heat
But I don't know the reason why
Maybe that's conceit
But I can hear the flowers grow
In the pouring rain
Don't ask me why 'cause I don't know
Am I going insane

Is this a dream or reality
I don't know what is going on now
Is this a nightmare please, please tell me
Where do I belong

Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy

Now I feel like a burning fire
Growing stronger and stronger
Telling people their desire
But they ain't got none any longer
I feel like sitting on a purple sky
Riding on the wind
Flying low and flying high
Again and again

Is this a dream or reality
I don't know what is going on now
Is this a nightmare please, please tell me
Where do I belong

Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy

03. Shelly The Maid

Don't ever think you have paid
For the last love by Shelly the maid
She'll give you all her loving aid
When you need a warm bed - Shelly the maid

Shelly with her belly filled with joy
She knows how to treat her boy
She'll give you anything right
She won't leave you in the night
'Cause she knows when there's money in sight

You'll never see her pale
She'll wear purple red on her toenail
You don't ever have to be afraid
Who'll never let you down - Shelly the maid

Shelly with her belly filled with joy
She knows how to treat her boy
She'll give you anything right
She won't leave you in the night
'Cause she knows when there's money in sight

04. Children Of Tomorrow

They live in the streets
Outside the walls
Left out in the cold
There's nowhere to sleep
They've taken the fall
Into the hole

They grew up with violence
They learned how to hate
And learned how to fear
They searched for silence
Before it was too late
Before it was disappeared

Where is the future
Where is the past
The answer's unknown
But the child of tomorrow
Don't know where he is
Or where he shall go
They are the children of sorrow
They are the children of tomorrow

And all their illusions
All of their dreams
Are all gone so far
They live with confusion
Don't know what it means
Don't know who they are

So rise all you children
Come back to life
You're wasting your time
'Cause you are the future
You are not left behind

Where is the future
Where is the past
The answer's unknown
But the child of tomorrow
Don't know where he is
Or where he shall go
They are the children of sorrow
They are the children of tomorrow

05. Nowhere To Run

Running around the corridors
Blood on the walls
Blood on the floors
And your brain is full of fear
Evil laughs and dreadful cries
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
Seems like death is standing near

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
What the hell is going on

There's killer behind you back
Just waiting for attack
And your heart is beating fast
Your body's shaking, you're going insane
Something's going on in your brain
Death will overtake you at last

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
What the hell is going on

The might is over, the dawn is breaking
All night long you have been waiting
It's cleaning up inside your head
You think you're safe, you're feeling high
But you're wrong I'll tell you why
Nobody escapes the castle of death

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
What the hell is going on
