"I see a ship in the harbor. I can and shall obey. But if it wasn't for your misfortunes, I'd be a heavenly person today.And I thought I was mistaken. And I thought I heard you speak. Tell me how do I feel? Tell me now, how should I feel?"

"How does it feel To treat me like you do? When you've laid your hands upon me, And told me who you are.I thought I was mistaken. I thought I heard your words. Tell me, how do I feel? Tell me now, how do I feel?"

"Won't you please let me go? These words lie inside, they hurt me so. And I'm not the kind that likes to tell you Just what I want to do. I'm not the kind that needs to tell you Just what you want me to."

"Those steps which seem to take a lifetime, When eyes just turn and stare. The day begins, collapsing without warning, You fade from sight, there's nothing there.No hope allowed, calls are answered daily. Questions are on your side. Deeply moved, beyond all consolation, You felt the pulse, now hear the cry.In my mind, thoughts are becoming clearer. I'm watching every move you make, Counting time spent in observation. A single blow, a false mistake."

"My promise could be your friend, A given end to your dreams. A simple movement or rhyme Could be the smallest of signs. We'll never know what they are or care. In it's escapable view, There's no escape so few in fear Give in a changing value."

"Who is this man That follows me? This blue eyed boy Who wants to beThis worthy cause Of human kind, This pawn set up by time."

"In their darkened rooms the inhabitants have given way to the same feeling of panic which is aroused by natural cataclysms; those devastating upheavals of the earth against which wisdom and strength alike are of no avail. The same feelings experienced whenever the established order of things is upset, when security ceases to exist, when all that was previously protected by the laws of man or nature is suddenly placed at the mercy of brutal, unreasoning force."

"By our blindness and stupidity We kill... everything"

"Can someone see our self destruction? Are we reminding ourselves That our existence is So delicate"

"In 1000 years what will be our legacy"

"We torch this earth until it bleeds Rain ashes from the sky Just to make a light that no one can see We cut this earth until it bleeds Rain ashes from the sky"

"Order is shattered in a strange guttural tone that resounded along the walls of the houses, which seemed dead and deserted, while behind the closed shutters, eyes watched the conquerors, who, by right of the war, were now masters of the city and of the lives and fortunes of its people."

"The earthquake, burying a whole people beneath the ruins of their houses; the river in spate, sweeping away the bodies of drowned peasants, together with the carcasses of cattle and rafters torn from roofs; or the victorious army slaughtering all who resist, making prisoners of the rest, looting by right of the sword, and thanking their god to the sound of cannon."

"All these are terrifying scourges which undermine all our belief in eternal justice, and all the trust we have been taught to place in divine protection and human reason."

"Can I start again and erase this pain by casting doubts into the waters, asking judgement of the sea. Though fortune may guide to the fools I have no wish to be free until I am gone."

"I stand still, stepping on the shady streets And I watched that man to a stranger. You think you only know me when you turn on the light, Now the room is lit red danger.Complicating, circulating, New life, new life. Operating, generating, New life, new life."

"Way up here with the Northern lights, Beyond you and me. I dreamt of us in another life, One we've never reached.You know we're sinking, We could fade away. I'm not going down, Not today. The air is so cold here, Too cold to see. We have to take cover. Cover me."

"You've been kept down, You've been pushed 'round. You've been lied to, You've been fed truths. Who's making your decisions? You or your religion? Your government, your countries? You patriotic junkies.Where's the revolution? Come on, people You're letting me down."

"We are not there yet, We have not evolved. We have no respect, We have lost control. We're going backwards, Ignoring the realities. Going backwards, Are you counting all the casualties?"

"I'm coming for you When the sun goes down. I'm coming for you When there's no one around."

"You should be higher. I'll take you higher. So don't be afraid, You'll just have to pray. Your lies are more attractive Than the truth. Love is all I want. Your lies are written down In your book. Love is all I want."

"Sometimes I slide away, Silently. I slowly lose myself, Over and over. Take comfort in my skin, Endlessly. Surrender to my will, Forever and ever.I dissolve in trust, I will sing with joy, I will end up dust. I'm in heaven."

"I'm leaving bitterness behind, This time I'm cleaning out my mind. There is no space for the regrets I will remember to forget."

"There's a fragile tension That's keeping us going. It may not last forever, But oh well it's blowing.There's something magical in the air, Something so tragic we had to care."

"There's something wrong with me chemically, Something wrong with me inherently. The wrong mix in the wrong genes, I reached the wrong ends by the wrong means. It was the wrong plan in the wrong hands, With the wrong theory for the wrong man. The wrong eyes on the wrong prize, The wrong questions with the wrong replies."

"And words can leave you broken inside. You'll have to decide, I'm hanging on to my pride.We are here, we can love. We share something. I'm sure that you mean the world to me When you get what you need. There's no way of knowing What you'll have is another hole to feed."

"Pain and misery always hit the spot, Knowing you can't lose what you haven't got."

"Precious and fragile things Need special handling. My God, what have we done to you? We always tried to share The tenderest of care, Now look what we have put you through.Things get damaged, things get broken. I thought we'd manage. But words left unspoken left us so brittle, There was so little left to give."

"I found treasure not where I thought, Peace of mind can't be bought. Still, I believe.I just hang on, suffer well Sometimes it's hard, it's hard to tell."

"Seven lies, multiplied by seven Multiplied by seven again. Seven angels with seven trumpets, Send them home on the morning train. Well, who's that shouting? John the Revelator! All he ever gives us is pain. Well, who's that shouting? John the Revelator! He should bow his head in shame."

"All this running around, well, it's getting me down. Just give me a pain that I'm used to. I don't need to believe all the dreams you conceive, You just need to achieve something that rings true."

"Here, somewhere in the heart of me, There is still a part of me That cares. And I'll, I'll still take the best you've got, Even though I'm sure it's not The best for me.When you're born a lover, Born to suffer Like all soul sisters And soul brothers."

"It's the dark night of my soul And temptation's taking hold. But through the pain and the suffering, Through the heartache and tremblingI feel loved. I feel loved."

"If you've been hiding from love, If you've been hiding from love, I can understand where you're coming from. I can understand where you're coming from. If you've suffered enough, If you've suffered enough, I can understand what you're thinking of. I can see the pain that you're frightened of.And I'm only here To bring you free love. Let's make it clear That this is free love."

"There's no time for hesitating, Pain is ready, pain is waiting, Primed to do its educating. Unwanted, uninvited kin, It creeps beneath your crawling skin. It lives without, it lives within you.Feel the fever coming, You're shaking and twitching. You can scratch all over, But that won't stop you itching."

"As your boney fingers close around me, Long and spindly, death becomes me. Heaven, can you see what I see? Hey, you pale and sickly child, You're death and living reconciled. Been walking home a crooked mile.Paying debt to karma, You party for a living. What you take won't kill you, But careful what you're given, mmhmm."

"Well it's about time, It's beginning to hurt. Time you made up your mind, Just what is it all worth?All my useless advice, All my hanging around. All your cutting down to size, All my bringing you down."

"I'm gonna take my time, I have all the time in the world To make you mine. It is written in the stars above, The gods decree. You'll be right here by my side, Right next to me. You can run but you cannot hide."

"Here is a page from the emptiest stage, A cage or the heaviest cross ever made, A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid.And I thank you for bringing me here, For showing me home, for singing these tears. Finally, I've found that I belong here."

"This twisted, tortured mess, This bed of sinfulness, Who's longing for some rest And feeling numb.What do you expect of me? What is it you want? Whatever you've planned for me, I'm not the one."

"Will you let the morning come soon, Or will you leave me lying here? In your favourite darkness, Your favourite half-light, Your favourite consciousness, Your favourite slave.In your room, Where souls disappear. Only you exist here."

"If you see purity as immaturity, Well, it's no surprise. If for kindness you substitute blindness, Please open your eyes."

"I would tell you about the things they put me through, The pain I've been subjected to, But the Lord himself would blush. The countless feasts laid at my feet, Forbidden fruits for me to eat, But I think your pulse would start to rush.Now I'm not looking for absolution, Forgiveness for the things I do. But before you come to any conclusions, Try walking in my shoes. Try walking in my shoes."

"I feel you, your heart it sings. I feel you, the joy it brings. Where heaven waits, those golden gates and back again, You take me to and lead me through oblivion.This is the morning of our love. It's just the dawning of our love."

"It's too late to change events. It's time to face the consequence For delivering the proof In the policy of truth.Never again is what you swore The time before. Never again is what you swore The time before."

"Vows are spoken to be broken, Feelings are intense, words are trivial. Pleasures remain, so does the pain, Words are meaningless and forgettable."

"Words like violence break the silence, Come crashing in, into my little world. Painful to me, pierce right through me. Can't you understand? Oh, my little girlAll I ever wanted All I ever needed Is here in my arms Words are very unnecessary They can only do harm"

"Reach out and touch faith."

"Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who cares Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who's there"

"Let me take you on a trip Around the world and back, And you won't have to move, you just sit still. Now let your mind do the walking And let my body do the talking, Let me show you the world in my eyes."
