Never been here before
But I'm coming back tomorrow
For the real pain
A cold rain again
Nice day for a crucifixion
Heard a new prediction
That we can all be saved
So I'll have one more for the road
Oh play it again
One more for the road
Never heard this before
That a child can tell who's evil
But it's a good thing
If we sing along
Cold day
We can make a fire
Burn another liar
Can witches ever die?
Hey let's burn
One more for the road
Oh gimme the same again
One more for the road
We'll I've never been here before
And the room is really empty
But there's a big line waiting for the show
Nice day for an execution
Another wrong conclusion
But someone's got to pay
So let's burn
One more for the road
Oh play it again
One more for the road
There's a child who just sees evil
And a man who just loves pain
But I heard that we can save them
So gimme the same again
There's a cross that you can carry
Cause it's heavier than hell
And if you should meet your maker
Just pray that he won't yell
One more for the road
One more for the road
Play it again
One more for the road
And then you dream
Of a world with only windows
Inside you
You can hide you
You know
And then the night
You're just another empty shadow
No questions
No answers
No one to scream at you
Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone ya know
Hey you! You're just master of the moon
And then the eyes
If you look at them they'll blind you
Who are you?
What are you?
Why do you scream at me?
Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone ya know
Hey you! Master of the moon
We can shake you make you over
We just need some time to
Shed some light upon your darkness
We need your mind
And then you dream again
In a world that only you know
Inside you
You can hide you
No one to scream at you
Turn around and when you face the sun
We can make you be like everyone ya know
Oh turn away and never face the sun
You'll never make me be like you
I'm master of the moon
If I could sleep at night then somehow I'd see
Why everything's wrong
Or maybe it's just me
Does anybody know this place that I'm in
Why I might be alone
Imagination is a terrible thing
What if I'm wrong
But here's what I've been thinking
It must be the end of the world
Whatever happened to the rock 'n' roll song
Breaking your brain
Making you stronger
They say you'll never hear the bullet that kills
And I don't hear a sound
It's not about a change or evolution
What's gone today is still called substitution
Don't get emotional but we're out of time
The melody's gone
Fools have got the sunshine
If I'm mistaken and I see you again
Don't leave me alone
Maybe tomorrow could be the end of the world
Don't make wishes
Don't waste time
Call the ones you hate
You say I'm sorry but they'll have to wait
For the end of the world
Bye bye bye bye bye
Fingers scratching blackboards
Make cowards of the brave
A natural reaction
From the cradle to the grave
Rats and bats and spiders
And little things that crawl
Never make me tremble
I’m not bothered, not at all
Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
But what’s this shaking
You made me shiver
Shiver
Cemetery midnights
Walking on the dead
Never seemed to matter
It’s all inside your head
An angel wrote me letters
Mentioned on a stone
And if you’re going somewhere
You’re going it alone
Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
Felt this shaking
You gave me shivers
Magic charms and voodoo
And all those other spells
Never made impressions
And I never slept so well
If I had a nightmare
I’m sure that I would know
I really don’t remember
But I’m sure it isn’t so
Then I saw you
Something new inside of me
What’s this shaking
Turn out the light it won’t matter
A bucket of blood I’d still find
A black cat’s only a color
But you can do it every time...
Time..
Bless me Father I must go away
To save us from the ones who don’t believe
Confess me father I have sinned
But maybe angels really sing
For the man who would be king
We laugh at your religion
You people of the sand
We have no superstition
You can read it in our hands
Forgive me Father for the change we bring
But it’s all for the man who would be king
Don’t leave a body standing
Not the holy, not the small
Deliver us from evil
If it’s yours, we want it all
Lately Father I’ve been wondering
Is the Devil just the man who would be king
How can right be ever wrong
We are glory, we are stronger than you
We never got an answer
It’s just too late to ask
The bloody flag was waving
Our hearts just ran too fast
Curse me Father for the change we bring
And don’t believe the man who would be king
We never got an answer
The question slipped my mind
I’ve been so busy killing
I haven’t found the time
Oh no, they’re at it again
Looking inside my secrets
Coming through cracks before I mend the wall
Get out, cause you’re breaking the law
How did you ever find me
Places I can hide can’t get much smaller
I have invisible dreams
Where no one can touch me
Maybe I’ll find a way to disappear
No one moves and no one dies
Just the eyes
I run as fast as I can
Thinking they’ll never catch me
What a waste of breath, a waste of time
Feel like digging a hole
Going in even deeper
Maybe they just can’t see what just can’t shine
I’ll be lost so no goodbyes
If no one moves then nothing dies
Just the eyes
Oh no, they’ve done it again
Sending out the detectives
Searching for signs of life, and that means me
In my invisible dreams
When no one is watching
I’d make the whole world blind and I’d be free
I’ll be lost so no replies
If no one looks then no one dies
Just the eyes
Those eyes
Magic numbers
Even sacrifice
I can’t find a way
Cause nothing stops the eyes
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
When a million miles from nowhere
Is still too close to home
You’re with a hundred thousand people
And you still feel all alone
She was never in the circle
All the round would be a square
And the more she seemed to want it
All the less they seemed to care
So now there’s no admission
So no need to buy
It’s never who, it’s only why
She’s living the lie
Living the lie
When you’re on your way to somewhere
But the elevator falls
Do you look for stairs to heaven
Or wonder through the halls
He was only dedicated
To the ones who make the law
But they burn with too much fire
And his heart was made of straw
No ticket, no admission
Too late to buy
It’s always he, and he knows why
He’s living the lie
Living the lie
How badly you want it
How far will you go
If you’re looking at tomorrow
To forget about today
Then the past will be your future
And it’s there you’ll always stay
What about the pictures
That smile from magazines
The ultimate temptation
Our new king and all our queens
Such heat and too much pressure
Not worth a try
No more for them, now it’s I
And no more living a lie
Living a lie
Oh why live the lie
I think I’m through with just pretending
Knocking at a door that I’ve been through before
Congratulations, at last you’ve seen my light
Now it’s you against the night
I think I’m never coming after, after all
Now I’ve become the cat who always let’s you know that
I am, I am stronger than the wind
I am, I am sin
I am, I am stronger without you
I am
For all the words gone unspoken
Silence isn’t gold, all the stories never told
Investigation, at last I’ve found my light
And we shine
So now I’m like that cat who always tells you this that
I am, I am stronger than the wind
I am, I am sin
I am, I am better without you
I am
I think I’m way outside illusion
Breaking down the door that locked me in before
Congratulations, now that you’ve seen my light, after all
And when I become the cat, I’ll always let you know that
I am, I am stronger than the wind
I am, I am sin (I am)
I am, I am stronger without you
I am
I know I am, I am
I am everyone
I am, I am better without you
I am
I am, I am stronger than before
I am, I am more (I am)
I am, I am ready to go on
I am (I am, I am)
One night when the stars are right for the gypsy queen
And she found she could drag it down to a place that’s in between it all
She’s a mad man with a delicate hand and evil eyes
And I’ve heard she’ll only say a word but that’s enough to satisfy
Don’t ask why, don’t even think about it
Brave men die, but what a way to go
She’s not above death by love
One spell from the wishing well and you’re nevermore
A bad start for the sacred heart, ‘cause the end has come before the beginning
Knee deep in the dark of sleep, but the eyes see all
So high it could break the sky and never feel the fall to calm you
Strong men die, but what a way to go
She’s not above death by love
Don’t ask why, don’t even think about it
Brave men die, but what a way to go
You’ve got symptoms of death by love
She’s not above death by love
Don’t ask why, don’t even guess about it
All men die, but this is death by love
Help me, save me
I’ve just crossed the line where reason might betray me
Wake me, oh shake me
Send a message to my brain before they take me
How can I get through to you
That wishes just come true in dreams
Oh don’t go, no don’t dare
‘Cause the journey drives you mad before you’ll get there
Help me, oh save me
I’ll be glad to give you back the hand you gave me
How can I get through to you
That wishes just come true in dreams
In your dreams
If I’m a river, then you’re the sea
Somewhere you’ll find me
Alone and swimming here in ecstasy
If I am silence, you must be scream
But I can’t hear you
I’m in a place that you’ve just never seen before
No don’t go, you’ll never save me
I’ve just slapped away that helping hand you gave me
Don’t wake me, no don’t you shake me
Here’s a message from my brain, you’ll never take me
How can I get through to you
That wishes just come true in dreams
In my dreams
11. PRISONER OF PARADISE (Japan Bonus)
Bring me down
Drag me away from heaven
But look out
Angels guard the door
We all choose pain
If pleasure is ordinary
Then we beg for more
And more and more
Oh, lock me up in an institution
And throw away the key
Then I'm free
The prisoner of paradise
Take me down
I've gone too high
So hurry
How can this be real
I paid for the ride
And got wishes for eternity
And here's one more
I wish that you would steal them
Tie me down and don't believe me
If I say I'm free
It's still me
The prisoner of paradise
Bring me down
If I could start all over
Would I do the same
Oh, I'd try for a while
Then hunger for the recipe
And all I'd hear is
"Isn't it a shame"
Oh, wrap me up in some chains
And you can push me out to sea
Cover me up with the ocean
Then I'm free
The prisoner of paradise
