Pulsing Lights

--------------
Run away tonight with me
I'll wait outside in my car
All the times you felt alone
All the things you hate to do
When the lights are all out
You can leave it all behind
Up there the stars await
We'll scape this world trhough a hole
Don't you try to say goodbye
they would never let you go
All we need is what we got
And you know the time is now
Run away tonight with me
We'll find our way to the stars
We could beat the speed of light
we can even stop the time
But all the pulsing lights we'll see
they will never come back
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away

Red & Black

We used to laugh about it then
About the ones who face the sun
They stared so long they're going blind
I've got a bad feeling about this
Some people like to forget
so they can make the same mistakes again
They're everywhere they're up and down
This evil spreads out like a virus
Kill them, kill them all
It's like a nightmare from the past
Kill them, kill them all
How did we let this happen again? again?
war
nation
rage
race
stupid
triumph
flags
fear
Fanatics having fun with flags
They feed their hate with propaganda
Don't let the future look like this:
A boot stamping on a human face
Kill them, kill them all
It's like a nightmare from the past
Kill them, kill them all
How did we let this happen again? again?

If the Music Stops
03:57
|

--------------
In the heat of the night
Loudest place in this town
We're moving with the groove
See the skeletons dance
They all seem to smile
Untill daylight do us part
And I don't want to come down, you know
If the music stops right now I'm gonna fall
All I need is this beat
To keep me from the fears
So let's dance this night away
At the end of the night
All my chemical love
Will be forever lost
And I don't want to come down, you know
If the music stops right now I'm gonna fall
And I don't want to come down, you know
If the music stops right now I'm gonna fall
Does the fall have an end? I don't wanna know
If the music stops right now

Lost Future

--------------
We were starting then,
with our drive into space,
the next step in evolution.
Where are we now?
Where is that bright future?
Our generation should be exploring the planets by now
Where is that bright future?
Those old frontiers are still so far far away
Years before I was born
space was the place
where promises awaited
the long dawn of man
Where is that bright future?
Our generation should be exploring the planets by now
Where is that bright future?
Those old frontiers are still so far far away

Tonight Never Comes
04:21

|
--------------
They told me once and they told me twice
but I don't listen to any advice
All I want is to be your slave
lay at your feet in your grave
I've been waiting for so long
and tonight... never comes!
You do know how to knock me down
every time you come around
and when I wake up on the floor
I feel like banging at your door
I've been waiting for so long
and tonight... never comes!
I can't stop looking at the clock
I wanna live and I wanna rock
Since you messed with my brain
I'll wait standing in the rain
I've been waiting for so long
and tonight... never comes!
Now the sky fades into black
I look for a place to hide
I wait for the time to attack
I approach you from behind
and once again my life
it starts... now!

Uncanny Valley
04:13
|
|||
|
--------------
Yes, I still remember
the first time I saw your face
I loved your big bright eyes,
and the way they looked at me
You almost overloaded
all my circuits with your kiss
We spent the night together
and I felt I was alive
Then as time went by
we reached the uncanny valley
I started to seem too strange to you
Your look became so cold
Desire turned into fear
I wish I were more human
I wish I were a little less
But as time went by
we reached the uncanny valley
I started to seem too strange
Everything then changed
I started to feel rejected
I decided to break the first law
Now you don't look at me at all

Burn
03:57
|
|||
|
--------------
I'm sick and tired of seeing things
Like every flag waving in the streets
I close my eyes and watch them burn
Burn
I'm sick and tired of hearing things
Like all the voices outside my head
I close my eyes and watch them burn
Burn
Just beware
And my eyes will start to bleed
if I read one more single word
about your flat earth and your gods
Your fucking gods
We're going backwards
I can't believe the news today
Brainless masses have made their choice
They choose to fuck the world and burn
Burn
Just beware
We're going backwards

Slow Rev

|
--------------
Soft and warm I see your smile
across the light years
And in slow motion you start to laugh
I wonder why
I see you talk but I can't tell
your voice from the others
I'm slowly spinning
so far away
I feel I'm getting lost
a little more each day
I traded all my joy for to feel no pain
and I think it's working
I see trees of green, I see skies of blue
and I think to myself
I don't think I belong here
I don't even care
I'm slowly spinning
so far away
I feel I'm getting lost
a little more each day
I'm slowly spinning
so far away
I feel I'm getting lost
a little more each day
