Tracks



01. A Whiter Shade Of Pale

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
The crowd called out for more

The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned A Whiter Shade Of Pale

She said: "There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see."
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be

One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well be closed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned A Whiter Shade Of Pale

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned A Whiter Shade Of Pale

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned A Whiter Shade Of Pale

02. Save My Soul

I was tempted
Like a desperate child
Sent out in the world to taste it

It was colder than steel
Frozen in fields
Emptied by the turning of pages

Falling like stone
Over and over
Falling alone
Hold on hold on

Love, will save my soul someday
Love, will save my soul someday

Take me away
Take me so far away
Love will save my soul someday

I was trusted like a heart of gold
Walked out on this earth to make it
Yea, I'm better than bad
Stronger than sad
Harder than the rock of ages

Fallin' like stones
Over and over
Falling alone
Hold on, hold on

Love, will save my soul someday
Love, will save my soul someday

Take me away
Take me so far away
Love will save my soul someday

Fallin' like stone
Over and over
Falling alone
Hold on, oh hold on

Love, will save my soul someday
Love, will save my soul someday

Take me away
Take me so far away
Love will save my soul

Love, will save my soul someday
Love, will save my soul someday

03. World Gone Wild

There's a flamin' hole in the society
A billion souls without destiny
Livin', lovin', cryin'

Feedin' the system, starvin' your life
Polish the prison, sharpen the knife
Livin', lovin', dyin'

Ev'rybody keeps movin' on and on
Never seeing anything that could be wrong

The world's gone wild
The world's gone wild again
The world's gone wild
You can almost feel the end
Listen sister
Load your pistol
The world's gone wild

We're losin' hold of our sanity
Tempting fate with our fantasies
Livin', lovin', cryin'

Sellin' secrets and tellin' lies
We're face to face with no alibis
Livin', lovin', dyin'

Ev'rybody keeps movin' on and on
Never seein' anything that could be wrong

The world's gone wild
The world's gone wild again
The world's gone wild
You can almost feel the end
Listen sister
Load your pistol
The world's gone wild

The world's gone wild
The world's gone wild
The world's gone wild
The world's gone wild

Oh the world's gone wild
The world's gone wild again
The world's gone wild
You can almost feel the end
Listen sister
Load your pistol
The world's gone wild

World's gone wild
World's gone wild again
World's gone wild
World's gone wild again...

World's gone wild
World's gone wild again
World's gone wild
World's gone wild again...

04. Mission Of Mercy

Walkin' on the wire
Livin' on the edge of time
Lost in our desires
We're never satisfied

Waiting for the wonder
You could really lose your mind
'Cause fate is no hunter
And fear can only make you blind

We're hiding so much pain
But it is all in vain
Livin', lying for a

Mission of Mercy
Rescue me and I will be your
Mission of Mercy
Set me free and I can be your
Mission of Mercy
Mission of Mercy

Drownin' in emotions
Tryin' to swim against the tide
The devil is in motion
And someone's always sacrificed

We're hiding so much pain
But it is all in vain
Livin', lyin' for a

Mission of Mercy
Rescue me and I will be your
Mission of Mercy
Set me free so I can be your
Mission of Mercy
Mission of Mercy

We're hiding so much pain
But it is all in vain
Livin', lyin' for a

Mission of Mercy
Rescue me and I will be your
Mission of Mercy
Set me free so I can be your
Mission of Mercy
Mission of Mercy
Mission of Mercy...

05. Angels With Dirty Faces

See my soul as desire
Catch the words as they fall from my lips
Feel the passion grow higher
Lick the sweat from my fingertips

Be my love
Beware my love is strange
Be my love
Beware the time can change

See my scars heat the hunter
Catch the thoughts as they race with the wind
Hear my heart beat like thunder
Free yourself, let the madness begin

Be my love
Beware my love is strange
Be my love
Beware the time can change

We're Angels With Dirty Faces
Livin' all alone
Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home
Our dirty minds go on and on
Our fear of night is long gone
We're Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home

Touch my skin
It's on fire
Light your dreams with the heat of the sun

Let your passions expire
Burn it up till there's nowhere to run

Be my love
Beware my love is strange
Be my love
Beware the times have changed

We're Angels With Dirty Faces
Livin' all alone
Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home
Our dirty minds go on and on
Our fear of night is long gone
We're Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home
So far from home

Be my love
Beware my love is strange
Be my love
Beware the times have changed

We're Angels With Dirty Faces
Livin' all alone
Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home
Our dirty minds go on and on
Our fear of night is long gone
We're Angels With Dirty Faces
So far from home
So far from home
So far from home
So far from home
So far from home

06. Hard Times

It's too real to be really right
It's so real it kept me up all night
A broken promise on the street of dreams
Left us here, we're down on our knees
With one shot
And one bite
The walls collapsed with a terrible fright
Minute by minute
Day by day
I feel this place is crumblin' away

Hard Times
We gotta break throught these
Hard Times yea!
Hard Times
Change the face of these
Hard Times yea!
Ev'rybody, ev'rywhere

It's easy talkin' when you're talkin' cheap
It's harder walkin' when you're in this deep
There's too much pressure
And there's too much pain
Too many people bein' driven insane
With one shot
And one bite
The world could change from dark to light
Station to Nation
Face to face
There must be someway to save this place

Hard Times
We gotta break throught these
Hard Times yea!
Hard Times
Change the face of these
Hard Times yea!
Ev'rybody, ev'rywhere

Now fair is fair
Hope needs a lot of care
It's time we all understand
The power in our hands

Hard Times
Hard Times yea!
Hard Times
Hard Times

Hard Times
We gotta break throught these
Hard Times yea!
Hard Times
We'll change the face of these
Hard Times yea!

Hard Times
Hard Times
Hard Times yea!
Hard Times
Hard Times
Hard Times yea!

07. Hellraiser

Flesh and bones
With hearts of stone
Cursin' the stars in the sky
The painted face
Has lost its place

Beneath the wheel
No pain can heal
The spirit must learn how to fly
Across the clouds
Strong and proud

So rise up - forget about the stories you tell
Rise up - and let me hear your renegade heart yell

Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser

Stand or fall
Don't we all
Searchin' for ways to survive
We're sweatin' blood
To keep alive

And if you feel
What I feel
Then we will learn how to fight
For what is real
And what is right

So rise up - forget about the stories you tell
Rise up - and let me hear your renegade heart yell

Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser

So rise up - forget about the stories you tell
Rise up - and let me hear your renegade heart yell

Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Rock on Hellraiser
Oh, oh, oh, oh Raze it Hellraiser...

08. I Am What I Am

Some choose to remember
Some choose to forget
Some fall to pieces
When they lose their heads

I choose to get lucky
Don't choose to regret
I'll take my chances
Only I know best

When it all gets down to me
When it all gets down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And no one's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am What I Am
And no one's gonna break me down again

I hate to be lonely
I can't pretend
Don't need no phonies
Tryin' to be my friends

Don't care 'bout danger
I can take the fall
Ev'ryone's a stranger
Till just one stands tall

And it all comes down to me
When it all comes down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
Nothin's gonna break me down again

I can hear the devil callin', callin'
I can hear him callin' me
But I don't do nothin'
I don't believe

When it all comes down to me
When it all gets down to me

('Cause) I Am, What I Am
And no one's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I Am, What I Am
And nothin's gonna break me down again
No, nothin's gonna break me down - again

09. Cry Wolf

We all learn the hard way
Like a ride on the rain
We try to keep the secrets
Tied and chained

Out there on the dark side
I can hear you call
It's so hard to believe you
I can't run no more

The last time you led'em all astray
But this time you gave yourself away

So Cry Wolf
And tell me it's for real
Cry Wolf
Since no one knows the way you feel
Cry Wolf
Your tears are never real
And no one comes to hear
When you Cry Wolf

We all feel the fences
Standing wide and tall
Wrapped around our senses
Made to fall

Outside in the real world
Deep inside your mind
Lies a lost deceiver
I won't wait in line

The last time, you led'em all astray
This time, you gave yourself away

Cry Wolf
And tell me it's for real
Cry Wolf
Till no one knows the way you feel
Cry Wolf
Your tears are never real
And no one comes to hear
When you Cry Wolf

So Cry Wolf
Cry
Cry Wolf
Cry
Cry yea !
Cry yea !

So Cry
Cry Wolf
And tell me it's for real
Cry Wolf
And no one knows the way you feel
Cry Wolf
Your tears are never real
And no one comes to hear
When you Cry Wolf

Cry Wolf
Cry Wolf
Cry Wolf

Cry
Cry Wolf
Cry
Cry Wolf
Cry
Cry Wolf

10. Under The Gun

Tell me no secrets and I'll tell you no lies
The future has been twisted and rehearsed for its demise
The warning lights are flashin' and they're circlin' in the sky
But no one feels the sinner's blow it's right before their eyes

The wicked watch their heroes with evil on their minds
While reaching out for heaven's gate, their shots ring through the night
Hellbent for thunder we are racin' with the time
But no one knows which way to go and no one knows to try

5 million reasons with 10 million pieces to go
Wheelers and dealers with nothin' but dreams of control
I believe, we're under the gun
I believe, we're under the gun
Sold out to madness
Prisoners of sadness
I believe we're under the gun
We're under the gun

In the land of milk and money the devil has his spies
While workin' undercover they all keep a watchful eye
They're building up the underworld, they're rotten to the bone
And crossin' out the others, while they're sellin' out their own

5 million reasons and 10 million pieces to go
Wheelers and dealers with nothin' but dreams of control
I believe we're under the gun
I believe we're under the gun
Sold out to madness
Prisoners of sadness
Oh I believe we're under the gun
We're under the gun

5 million reasons with 10 million pieces to go
Wheelers and dealers with nothin' but dreams of control
I believe we're under the gun
I believe we're under the gun
Sold out to madness
Prisoners of sadness
Sold out to madness
Prisoners of sadness
I believe we're under the gun

11. River Of Tears

Livin' and dreamin' in a world full of fear
Playin' with feelings that carried me here today

Lost in the memories of days gone by
Runnin' on empty and the wells run dry today
It's so far away
That I could fade away

( but ) I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
And I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
'Cause a lonely heart could die alone
In this river of tears

I could hear thunder, but I couldn't feel the rain
I fell down under, this dangerous game
We play
It's so far away
That I could fade away

( but ) I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
And I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
'Cause a lonely heart could die alone
In this river of tears

So I could fade away

( but ) I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
And I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
'Cause a lonely heart could die alone
'Cause a lonely heart could die alone
In this river of tears

In this river of tears
I'll fly
I'll fly
I'll fly
I'll fly
Cross this river of tears
I'll fly
I'll fly...

12. Bis Aufs Blut

Bis aufs Blut
Kein Weg zu weit
Um der Freiheit nah zu sein
Grenzen ohne Sinn
Hindern was ich bin

Kein Weg zu Dir
Ist zu weit um zu verlieren
Einen Augenblick
Den Wunsch
Der mich bedrackt

Kein Weg zu weit
Um in Freiheit nah zu sein
Geh ich bis aufs Blut
Ums zu versuchen
Und geh ich bis aufs Blut
Ums zu versuchen...
