Lonely Man Burning this war is over I'm getting sober in my head I'm growing older leaving the colder man for dead over my shoulder I loose control again and again I'm out of order but on a concrete fundament feed the burning man inside try to, try to feed the burning man tonight this empty dayride these lonely days that never end are out of view last night I was floating I saw the flames inside a house the door wide open the firebirds were flying out I wrote it in my book: 'it's the mystery you can't control' the women, alcohol, the misery in your best friends call you'll get your share of all this reality TV, somewhere, keep dreaming this hurricane that rose is big enough to choose a path the dusty curb, the scars it made are someones reservoir the love your searching for is closer than the nearest bar keep dreaming 2. Sharks And Razors Sharks and razors in my sleep body's aching for some peace how I steal for you, like I steal from you slowly losing my believe in life Sharks and razors digging deep searching for a remedy how I run for you just to run from you slowly fading, I can't stand the sight because I stole from you the last time and I don't want to abuse you just a minute for your second thoughts and I'll show you I'm through with it I've been hiding my best side from you and I don't want that anymore now I tell you for the first time that I don't want to lose you 3. Outshine long blind kiss from the beauty queen daddy said I'm dancing on a mine but if I ruled the world if I was made king watch me play for joker all the time honesty... outshine it breaks the mass fear comes through with all it's hell out here in the dark I play it cool what do you want from me? out here in the dark I play the fool I'm restless in a world where all the eyes are meant to see I'm restless in a world with all the shiny jewellery I'm restless in a world where all the lies are meant to be if I had a chance I would turn the world to blue if I ruled the world I gave that world to you 4. Boarding Music get in your fighter pilot and drop those bombs off make your plans work untill the mad dog is quiet beat resistance, break defences Mister P. wants you to hit your targets boy, its gonna be a mess down there to save... to pay? when the rain curtains fall no escape from euphoria we all seek shelter for ourselves Mary meets the sky alone shattered by the storm of desire to hold you once more with the light out, here I feel like a silent preacher as I resent the sky above me can't stop I've been waiting for so long been up all night chasing the dawn with this devil upon my heels I won't go mad, I won't go numb the desert is cold, my baby is gone a valley of hope dried up in the sun I won't go mad, I won't go numb they put us apart, the damage is done but here in my heart the battle is won 5. Body Overdrive I've got a pocketbook for the beats in my mind I've got a bottle of red and I drink all through the night I've got gallons of fuel to drive me to where I like to the north to the west, wherever it feels right I want to step outside and watch the fire brighten I want to ride the highway and scream into your face that it's allright when the spark hits the bottom it takes me by surprise the engine of your foolish heart is the zero train you can't restrain and that's allright 6. The Celestial Dragon breathe out, wherever she walks the workers and whores are blinded by love give in, 'cause when she begins you will surrender to the precious smile, that she brings she's open fire and rain the stars can't complain with her at their side just by the touch of her hand broken young man you will know today is the day give it up, give it up when she's on your way... 7. All Wrong winter falls and out of fuel we hide inside our shell no excuse or advice, it's just the way we feel we will stumble through our days I will read you happy tales I will catch you if you fall no surprise to wrap around my iron safety belt maybe we can try some more, yes, I think we really can we will stumble through our days I will read you happy tales I will catch you if you fall it's all wrong winter falls and out of fuel we hide inside ourselves and never come back out again 8. Comfortable Mess poetry in her window pane see our faces in the moonless night with no need for a spoken word too afraid to be open now innocent for as long as silence is our friend spinning round in my belly wheel in the garden behind veiled eyes I'm the boy again, standing in the flood so in love with the tides should I save myself from you and then drown in distant memories should I give myself to you or just throw it all away? poetry in the window pane her devotion, a mysterious smile how long will we play this waiting game how long will we stay on tricky ground how long will we play this waiting game 9. From The Plains You're a memory that makes us free a sunshine melody to believe in you make me breathe in whenever I'm na‹ve tomorrow I could meet the angels in the serenade you sang when the night became a fortune to you a different frame of view a light to see me through the year a siren fills the deserted streets the silence of your sudden leave I'm hopeful, you made me hopeful and what is left behind tomorrow we might find the answers lay in riverbeds and dust the beautiful chaos in the head no, beauty is not dead we looked the other way a cold wind blew on this day (bye bye, my dear) we should know we're running out of time we should know we're humming different tunes open up, surrender to the plot beautiful, show them all you have got
