Night Time

Night time: turning out the sun Countdown: pulsing like a machine Conflict: cars and people, steel on flesh Night time: desperations sweat on breath Bloodstains: night covering the crimes Daytime: shows the face behind the mask Showtime: law and order, life and death Fun time: a drunken time where all can lie Come, come with me, we'll run into the night Come, come and see, sweet madness of night Night time: party troops and governments Club time: lovers, riches, promises No time: running, hiding, crying tears It's night time And time to run from all your fears Come, come with me, we'll run into the night Come, come and see, sweet madness of night Night time Night time Night time Night time

The lore of elders passes judgement on this waste And finding me or them does lack accepting fate And as the moments pass, another face arrives We watch them come and go with speed of passing clouds Forbidden fruits of dreams that rule our thoughts, my love Of lands untouched and ways to come always, maybe But choking on the promises meant for the deal Thinking again the darkest hour before the dawn Confirming fears that from the dawn of time have been Retracing footsteps in dark chambers of grey lands And through the madness, through the terror, we must pass As if awaiting sunlight that may never come In time, we face ourselves with all our faults and fears Now that I know the final conflict is within I recognise the faces of my friends and hear the call "Come journey, journey with me through the darkest hour"

We must play our lives like soldiers in the field The life is short, I'm running faster all the time Strength and beauty destined to decay So cut the rose in full bloom 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood Every day, through all frustration and despair Love and hate fight with burning hearts 'Til legends live and man is god again And self-preservation rules the day no more We must dream of promised lands and fields That's never fade in season As we move towards no end, we learn to die Red tears are shed on grey 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood 'Til the fearless come and the act is done A love like blood, a love like blood

Well, take it easy While the world goes crazy As it's just another day And we've all been through the mangle And our pockets are empty But we'll live like kings and queens Hear the choirs of noise sing Take a load off my mind, soothe me Live like kings and queens Live like kings and queens Well, easy-sleazy In and out, and back again Feel a power running through me And I'm alive and kicking I accept submission To the pleasures of the flesh And the joy of pain Satisfy me satisfy Live like kings and queens Live like kings and queens I said take it easy Insanity has come I can never undo The wrong of the beginning There's so many hungry But I'm gonna turn a blind eye 'Cause I've got to live now Rejoice and kill your heart 'cause I say Live like kings and queens Live like kings and queens

I've tried to understand the ways of men they taught me They've lost their values as we define a wealth Semen and blood is all I've got, investments of a future I'm searching for a new gold, yes, I'm searching for a new gold A voice is calling Move closer to you, yeah Virile, young men run down the street in havoc, singing "I wish to build, I penetrate, I penetrate" Restricted sexuality gives birth to worlds of terror And all the time, I'm trying to piece new schemes together — help me Architects, erect erections, monoliths are raised I love the swollen mound, I love the swollen mound All hail the new seed breeding from our hearts and wombs All hail the new seed breeding from our hearts and wombs And night and day, run 'round in circles following sex instinct Push it between her legs and stretch the lips, mother, relieve me Bodies entwined in human tangle at the point of climax It shoots forth the new gold, and, at last, reason makes perfect sense A voice is calling Move closer to you — yeah I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now (Ha!) I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now (Ha!) I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now (Ha!) I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now (Ha!) I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now (Ha!)

The multitude excites, the flags are flown By fireside, the programme starts And I am running through this madness And all the time, I can't relate We sit around in rooms, we talk our fears Asking why we should go on God, I try to make ends meet the best I can Playing rhythms out of time Far from the multitudes, a few will always stand They don't fit in, they don't belong — move on, move on this way Within disorder, I assume my role Laugh and cry as I accept Eternal indolence through ages 'Til restless souls begin to wake (Perfection within decades of dissatisfaction and disillusion) A means to no end, a means to no end

Take up your arms, pick up your courage A black sun is rising as the gods of Europe sleep Come back into your strength, awaken Catastrophes, atrocities shall summon you, my love Glory, glory, how we wait... in Europe! What have they done? What are they doing? The place I love so butchered, ravaged, scarred and raped The years have passed us, still, we're fighting 'Til once again somewhere green lands shall be in sight Glory, glory, how we wait... in Europe! Glory, glory, how we watch... in Europe! The day humanity is over Let nations, east and west, tremble at the sight 'Til standard bearers' eyes are hungry And reason dead forever — God, let it be soon Glory, glory, how we wait... in Europe! Glory, glory, how we watch... in Europe!
