I'd like to know why it's so hard To understand the world today I'd like to know why it's so strange We all seem to ignore the truth Did you read the papers today? Corruption and evil still go on Another clash! Another fight! History books are written by wars We must open our eyes Search no hideaways 'Cause we have to rise To go through this craze I'd like to know why children starve When there's more than food enough We know there's something we can do No more waiting let's get to it We must open our eyes Search no hideaways 'Cause we have to rise To go through this craze We must open our eyes Search no hideaways 'Cause we have to rise To go through this craze Won't you open your eyes Search no hideaways 'Cause we have to rise To go through this craze To go through this craze To go through this craze To go through this...

Weird feeling in the streets People running everywhere Everywhere they fear The sky is getting darker Wind carries the fire Everything explodes Evil's on the loose Getting into your mind Makes you lose control Think you're a warrior You're screaming in the streets Got no hold of yourself God, take me to the sky I don't wanna see these things God, take me to the sky Hurry it's so late Because you run and you scream in the night You take what you want for your life You run and you scream in the night Blood flows and you're feeling right Bloodbath in heaven Bloodbath in heaven, bloodbath everywhere Bloodbath in heaven, bloodbath but you don't care Minutes seemed like hours Many a crying all over Calm's slowly coming back Evil has gone away Awaiting another day To take another place God, take me to the sky I don't wanna see these things God, take me to the sky Hurry it's so late Because you run and you scream in the night You take what you want for your life You run and you scream in the night Blood flows and you're feeling right Bloodbath in heaven Bloodbath in heaven, bloodbath everywhere Bloodbath in heaven Bloodbath in heaven Because you run and you scream in the night You take what you want for your life You run and you scream in the night Blood flows and you're feeling right Bloodbath in heaven Bloodbath in heaven, bloodbath everywhere Bloodbath in heaven Bloodbath in heaven, bloodbath but you don't care

Looking back at dreams I once had Looking at 'em now they seem so far away During all these years being a witness Of these freedom ideals gone so far away So many times I've been crying All these lonely tears have gone too far away Hoping for honesty and justice But in people's minds it won't change anyway So why are we taking people's lives I pray God to forgive us for our faults But they speak well, they teach well They do well, they've got the right way They show you, they rule you They got you, they send you away Now I'm reaped, I'm tired Exhausted, I'm washed away Though I'm striving, I'm fighting And creeping, in that mess anyway You know they speak well, they teach well They do well, they've got the right way They show you, they rule you They got you, they send you away Now I'm reaped, I'm tired Exhausted, I'm washed away Though I'm striving, I'm fighting And creeping, no mercy anyway Hanging on worthless promises It's always been the same thing each and every day There's nothing you can do about it In our world it's always been like this anyway But I don't lose hope...

Somewhere in the future Your life turns to nightmare Somewhere in the future Your mind flies to nowhere Sometimes your past returns Your heart begins to bleed Sometimes your past returns You try to pull up your sheets It's too late You make your own fate You know it's too late You can't choose your fate Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Something strange in your head Your eyes seek anywhere Something strange in your head Your skin burns everywhere It's too late You make your own fate You know it's too late You can't choose your fate Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Now is the time to prepare for your fate 'Cause in the future you will have no choice Someone laughs at your spell Where's God? Won't he forgive me? Someone laughs at your spell Where's love? Won't it rescue me? It's too late You make your own fate It's too late But you could change your fate Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain Gardeners of pain

Goodnight everybody, will you please shut the light? Goodbye everybody, I need to close my eyes Goodnight everybody, please let me dream tonight Goodbye everybody, I've got to leave my life In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Don't care about yourself Look out here it comes Light! Shining in my eyes I can't move my legs are afire! I can't breathe no more I just wanna live Let me live I just wanna live In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Don't care about yourself Look out here it comes The Nation is now a memory The atmosphere is cold and black People gotta stay home! Stay home! Justice and freedom have been done But dearly paid We're dying We're dying We die! Light! Shining in my eyes I can't move my legs are afire! I can't breathe no more I just wanna live Let me live I just wanna live In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Yet you touch the stars Welcome to heaven Am I in heaven?

All of my life I've been tracked by that fear so strong Every night Keeps haunting me till I can't go on That's no life Having to face a world so unreal Every night Watching the thread of my life unreel They won't believe me 'Cause they did not see And I live that nightmare On my own Disturbing the brain Awaking in my mind Devils from the confusion road Feel the stress I'm scared and I'm chilled to the bone They won't believe me 'Cause they did not see And I live that nightmare On my own The won't believe me 'Cause they did not see And I live that nightmare On my own

When the night comes And the sun has gone down Arrives the time For the people to get out Sunrays are now And forever more A source of pain Misery and disease Can't get away from the pain That is always increasing That's our own fault And we won't have any other choice Fight the light! Fight the light! Got to assume the sun shield That we broke Before it's too late Night's not the real way out Can't get away from the pain That is always increasing That's our own fault And we won't have any other choice Can't get away from the pain That is always increasing But to win we've got to fight There is only one way out Fight the light! Fight the light!

Lies can bring sadness, but someday, the sun will dry these tears away... Staring at the rain, pouring down my window I keep on wondering why you lie Like the tears I had to cry Sliding down with pain You're still hangin' in my brain And I feel like such a fool Staring at the rain, pouring down my window I keep on wondering why you lie Like a ship left on the sea And the ocean in a rage With the waves that run so high It's a never-ending tide I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I seem to live in happiness I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I need someone to find my way And I feel like such a fool Staring at the rain, pouring down my window I keep on wondering why you lie Like a bird lost in the sky Flying down with pain You're still soaring in my brain It's a never-ending flight I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I seem to live in happiness No I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I need someone to find my way And I feel like such a fool Such a crazy fool Staring at the rain, pouring down my window I keep wondering why you lie Like a prisoner with no cell Learning about love meanwhile I can't see it, I'm out of time It's an endless mental fight I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I seem to live in happiness No I don't wanna keep on dragging myself I need someone to find my way And I feel like such a fool Nothing but a fool I don't wanna keep on dragging myself One day I'll find what happiness is I don't wanna keep on dragging myself You're the one who knows my way But I feel like such a fool

Everyday it's all the same People keep screaming at me They blow my mind, burn my eyes Break my heart With words that hurt inside Makes me afraid Every night before I sleep It's like a movie in my head I'm fearless, I'm so strong I hit'em, beat'em And I sweep'em all They're all afraid I've got to save my mind 'Cause I don't wanna pay anymore Pay no more Pay no more Pay no more But when I wake up, it's still the same I see them all laughing at me Things are getting ever harder Life's not such As my dreams are It hurts inside I've got to speak my mind 'Cause I don't wanna pay anymore Pay no more Pay no more Pay no more Pay no more

You speak for nothing You're blowing our minds You scream for nothing Destroying our ties You speak for nothing Submerge us with lies You scream for nothing You're smashing our lives You'll reach down to hell's gates Your blood will start to boil Tell me again I am wrong and confused Show me again I'm just dust in the wind Tell me again And you'll see, I'll refuse Show me again You're insane, you're nothing You'll reach down to hell's gates Your blood will start to boil Watch out! Death's all around! Be honest! Judgment day is coming! Wake up! Can't you hear the sound! Be careful! The end is arriving! Lethal liar You lie to yourself Lethal liar You will die by yourself All of your friends Never say anything You think they love you They'll never get out All of your friends Feel this fear arising You think they love you But they could knock you out You'll reach down to hell's gates Your blood will start to boil Watch out! Death's all around! Be honest! Judgment day is coming! Wake up! Can't you hear the sound! Be careful! The end is arriving! Lethal liar You lie to yourself Lethal liar You will die by yourself There'll come a time You'll have to give, not take And of your life You'll be disowned by your friends There'll come a time You'll realize your mistakes And of your life You will soon see the end You'll reach down to hell's gates Your blood will start to boil Watch out! Death's all around! Be honest! Judgment day is coming! Wake up! Can't you hear the sound! Be careful! The end is arriving! Lethal liar You lie to yourself Lethal liar You will die by yourself You'll end up in hell

Life is so very precious... So you think you're all alone And you cannot get out of it Close your eyes Then imagine if you die And you'll see Your doomsday is gonna come Good or evil will get you And you won't have a say No you won't have a say Maybe you'll go to heaven And you'll be very pleased but close your eyes then imagine the other side 'Cause you see Everything will be red and hot And you'll regret it a lot But you won't have a say No you won't have a say This could be heaven This could be hell This could be heaven I don't know This could be heaven This could be hell This could be heaven I don't know Please don't lose it This could be heaven This could be hell This could be heaven I don't know This could be heaven This could be hell This could be heaven I don't know

The water from the stream Sang while hitting the rocks In this once floating mirror My own reflexion would fade away This sweet splashing water Used to be so refreshing to me But one day from the sky A rain of fire, came down endlessly Hurting me! Killing me! Look around you all Nature feels its death coming Why don't we seem to care For a world, that needs repair Lord I swear! Gotta beware 'Cause we, humans, have made The rain of death We're the ones behind our own demise! The water from the stream Used to sing against the rocks In this now shattered mirror I'm lost forever, forever...
