Lyrics


1. SHOW THE WAY YOU REALLY ARE

Another lie another fake another day
Don't think you need a break,
It could all be a mistake,
Another day you need a break,

Get rid of it all,
Get rid of it, you don't need it,
You don't need it, you don't need,

You can't even show me who you are,
Became what you wanted to be,
Show me who you really are,
That's what we wanna see,

Another lie another fake another day
Without a try you need a break,
Maybe you're the real mistake,
Another day you need a break,

Get rid of it all,
Get rid of it, you don't need it,
You don't need it, you don't need it to live, (lev)

You hide behind your clothes,
I can't see the real you,
You hide behind a mask,
That doesn't belong to you,

Everytime i see your face,
I think you're lost in a maze,
Everytime i see your face,
I think you're lost in maze.


2. WAKE UP

Woke up this morning,
And i don't wanna go,
Cause i've been thinking,
Of you and yours,
It hurts my head,
Better think of nothing,
I wish i could,
Feel like you do,

This time it's gone way too far,
My soul is burning i'm on fire,
Tears in my eyes i'm gonna cry,
You're dead, i live, i'm true, you lie,

Science's progress,
A trademark,
The world's a mess,
Everywhere you park,
Don't waste your time,
I know you lie,
I deal the cards,
Of my life,

This time it's gone way too far,
My head is burning i'm on fire,
Tears in my eyes i'm gonna cry,
You're dead, i live, i'm true, you lie,

Wake up, everybody now,
Wake up, feel alive now,
Wake up, make up your mind,
Wake up, fulfill your dreams.


3. TOMORROW

Writing this down, my hand is shaking,
Hoping these words will get to you,
Sending my thoughts, on paper,
Sharing the things that make me scared,

It's just you and me, nobody knows,

And tomorrow'll be the day,
I send my love letter away,
Sticking four stamps should be okay,
I think it's gonna be allright this way,

Now my heart is, beating faster,
How can i write down my desire,
Time is running and, we're still waiting,
Wondering and wondering and wondering

But tomorrow'll be the day,
I send my love letter away,
Sticking four stamps should be okay,
I think it's gonna be alright this way,

Drowned among thousands,
Of other ones,
It'll find its way,
It's gotta find its way,

I think it's done, but hope is gone,
It's no use now, the strike is on,

And tomorrow never came,
My love letter lost its way,
Kicking boot stamps on the doorway,
The post office was closed today.


4. GET THAT GUN OFF MY CHEST

I came here to see my friends
When i saw you on the pavement,
I thought there was something wrong,
And i could tell what it was,
When i heard your voice,
I realized that you were,
Holding a gun,
And we were the target,

You came into this girl's house,
You think you rule the street,
Then when a man shows up,
You shit your pants knee deep,

Get that gun off my chest,
It's in your best interest,

I keep my self control but i'm scared inside,
Put that gun away no one wants to die,
I see my life flash by,
Don't try to pull the trigger,
Or you'll be kissing the ground,

Jail is useless for you,
Is medecine more apropriate?
Your dad is scared of you,
What happens next?

Get that gun off my chest
It's in your best interest


5. WHO WANTS TO JOIN ?

Wherever you're going, it's the same old thing
A slow revolution growing underground,
In every city, it's come to its best,
No one had seen the slow thing coming,

It's a simple plan, do you understand,
No one saw anything coming,
Good news for my friends, just take a stand,
Changes are now just now coming,

The time has come, now it's everywhere,
No one can stop what's in the air,
The man think he's big, and he can control,
But this time it's done he lost the ball,

Who wants to join ?
These are things that have to happen,
They're growing like roots,

Like mushrooms on trees,
It's slowly taking place,
And 10 years later, it's everywhere,

Who wants to join,
It's a simple plan, do you understand,
No one saw anything coming,
Good news for my friends, just take a stand,
Changes are now just now coming.


6. POWER IS THE POISON

Cross words
Up today
They all watch
We obey
Nothing new
In this town
Cop city
Underground

Cameras everywhere
Take control
Never share
The only goal
Make money
Our religion is money

Power is the poison
Contaminate
A bad drug in action
For the brain

Power is the poison
Watch out
Cause you are infected


7. GOING NOWHERE TIM

Everywhere i've heard the sound,
I've seen there lying on the ground,
Men in the streets with no reply,
All left alone where's humankind,

You know they're going nowhere,
Dont tell me,
Things will never change,
You say it's not your problem,
But now it's time to re-arrange,

When we all lose the game,
When there is nothing left to burn,
Where will you go?
When there is nothing but a song to remind you,
What you've earned and what you've lost
Where will you go?

You know you're going nowhere,
Dont tell me,
You make no bones about it,
I've heard this song everywhere,
I tell you,
Dont lose the spirit,

We call for action, not false illusions,
Or running in circles revolution,

It's all together, no false illusions,
One after one destroy the walls,
That separate us,

Don't separate us.


8. A WHOLE LIFE

I'm sure the sun won't shine for me today
And i'm going the wrong way
My life on earth is hell today
And i'm running the wrong way

A whole life to make a brick
A second to break a wall
Wasn't sure i could stand tall
So i decide to fall

I dont want to hear a sound
I just sit down as you move around
I am my own victim
And i choose not to fight
I dont want to hear a sound
I just sit down as you move around
I'm my murderer
I stab myself in the back

I've learned from the past
And i want to forget so fast
In the race for life i'll be the last


9. AFTER ME THE STORM

I am the one, i am the one
All things i touch, turn to gold
I am the boss, i am the king
I am the wrestler in the ring

Don't matter if it turns out bad

I'm what you need, i'm what you want
I'm here for me myself and i
I give you love, i give you pain
I give you more, a longer chain

I'm on call cause i'm the best
It's all for me not for the rest
I'm born to win and built to last
I am the future and the past
My enemy becomes my friend
I always win in the end

I am success i can't fail
I am progress you can hail
I am success to inhale
I am progress it's for sale

Don't matter if it turns out bad
I wont be there to see the storm
My short career was a success
Now i don't care if it's a mess

I am success i can't fail
I am progress you can hail
I am success to inhale
I am progress it's for sale

Don't matter if it turns out bad


10. SPRIRT OF 68

Where is the youth?
Are they all gone?
Where is the feeling?
The search for freedom?

Those days are bad?
No one reacts?
Are we all blind?
Not to face the fact?

Where are the dreams?
That made us move?
What are you thinking?
When you hear the news.

There's no one on the barricades,
The tv said to stay at home,
Am i the last screaming guy?
That no one wants to hear at all,

The time has changed

Walk the great common lie,
Keep silent till you die,
Walk alone don't turn back,
And put your mind in a trap.


11. THE FUSE

No one tells you when you're wrong
Keep on singing the song
Days and nights seem so long
The time spent trying all alone

Left or right direction
You will have to learn
Open our heart and listen
Wonders are all around

No one's really got a clue
What's inside of you
Better think for yourself
Dont expect more advice from me
I need some from myself

Find your way and your size
To exit from the maze
I got no more lessons to give
You got no more time to waste
And got only one life to live
You got to find the fuse

No one's really got a clue
What's inside of you
Better think for yourself
Dont expect more advice from me
I need some from myself
I got no more lessons to give
You got no more time to waste
And got only one life to live
You got to light the fuse


12. SONG FOR THE MAJORS

You're full of shit,
You're screwing everybody,

And now the time has come,
It's getting on my nerves,
We all saw you were wrong,
How could you be so sure?

Because you're dead inside,
A player in a game,
Don't want you on my side,
Don't want your brand of fame,
You're full of shit,

You're full of shit,
Screwing everybody.


13. NICE TIME TO FALL

We fly above the clouds,
We float far from the ground,
We're not afraid to fall,
Everyday we keep in mind,
There's nowhere to find,
Somewhere to land,

Far away from hate
Every minute we take

Plastic people plastic mind,
Living in a rotten land,
We watch it from the sky,
Cos we're just passing by,
We're fine now nevermind,

Far away from hate,
Every minute we take,

Before the fall,
We know there's nowhere to land,
Nice time to fall,
We know there's nowhere to land,

We fly above the clouds,
We float far from the ground,
We're not afraid to fall,
Everyday we keep in mind,
There's nowhere to find,
Somewhere to land.


14. BAD TIME FOR HUMANKIND

I have no country, and no identity,one day you'll catch me and send me,to the place i was born,

Many years of asking,but i have no papers,no right for living,another summer,i work here and do the shit job,that no one wants to do,i've been treated like a dog,i think that i pay my due,many years of asking,but i have no papers,no right for living,another summer,

No i.d. Papers,
Not even a number,
I'm nobody in this land,
Bad time for humankind.


15. GLASS CEILING

I'm stucked in the social elevator,
I cannot reach the upper floor,
I try to touch all the buttons,
But the machine doesn't seem to work,

I know what it's all about,
Now the only way is a way out,
I'll take the stairs, nevermind,
I wanna live so i'm gonna climb,

Seems like we're stucked to the ground,
We're still waiting for the next round,
It's been a mess since we were born,
Maybe it's just because we're brown,

I'm out of the so-called elevator,
I've found the stairs i was looking for,
I see the way but there's a door,
Don't have the key don't have the code,

I've talked to the walls for so long,
But never matched to get a sound,
Just want to make this place a home,
That's why i keep on singing songs,

Seems like we're stucked to the ground,
We've been waiting for too long,
Too many things had been so wrong,
And now there's a riot going on.
