There is more than one way to burn a book and the world is full of people running about with lit matches. Every minority feels it has the will, the right, the duty to douse the kerosene, light the fuse... each ripping a page or a paragraph from this book, then that book, until the day came when the books were empty and the minds shut and the libraries closed forever. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Ray Bradbury I'm walking on ashes and kicking debris Sirens'n flashes... what a scene! The perfect place to be Not for a fainthearted - this job you can't touch: to get the show started all I have to do is light a match We're gracing with fire some meaningless books - appreciating how it looks! So now I'm watching them burn: nightmares and dreams, hopes for a future return, page after page, all of them sentenced to burn We're here for the tension, we're here to provoke Pay attention! Watch a pile of books go up in smoke If sounds a bit scary - for us it's just fun Opinions may vary... damn, this fire's brighter than the sun Somebody came closer - got eaten by flames But nobody will know their names Well, now I'm watching them burn: nightmares and dreams, hopes for a future return Legends and tales that we're all set to unlearn ready or not... look, it's not our concern Page after page after page, sentenced to burn

We cannot tear out a single page of our life, but we can throw the whole book in the fire. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　George Sand Why, why should it be hard to keep on breathing? Take what's left of me, cease this endless grieving Is there an easy way out? Tried, I know you tried... look, you're getting slower Life, my friend, is not an easy ride. Quit, this fight is over It's over now Rest your torn'n broken heart, get ready to depart away from pain and silent crying Let the world go down in flames – their faces and their names - and learn the finest art of dying Run - no longer under siege, you're almost out of reach Who said it's gonna hurt? They're lying! Gone... you crossed a final line to carry out the fine, divine... the art of dying Hey, I've seen it all: leap while you're on fire Right – you hit the wall, now pray and cut the wire Your time is up

The soul that sees beauty may sometimes walk alone. 　　　　　　　　　　　Johann Wolfgang von Goethe I used to walk alone from dusk to dawn. A driving rain would try and try again: well, bring it on... to wash away my pain I wandered up and down this empty street for days, just asking: will we ever meet? I roam across the desert, dull'n dry... and not a trace of you. Around the corner – her am I, can't wait to see your face I'm in the dark, just tell me what to do That shadow on the wall – I know it's you I used to walk alone, daydreaming on my own across the empty part, silently in the dark I'd follow any trail, pass every hill and dale I'd share my tears in vain, quietly strolling through the rain I used to walk alone, daydreaming on my own for days - until you came along, why did it took so long to see me out there? Nobody seemed to care if I'm alive or dead and gone... I told you that I used to walk alone It's gonna be a long, long haul... I'm sure we're gonna get through Who'll catch you if you fall? I'm here for you

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Albert Einstein Nobody's brave enough to stop and look a stranger in the eye Nobody's wise enough to speculate a bit and spot a lie It's like we all just froze... so that's the way it goes Nobody's sharp enough to realize where evil's coming from Nobody's strong enough to take a stand and fight the reigning scum It's not an empty claim - look what we all became The world has gone insane, we turned it upside down and everything within, everything around is so twisted inside out. The day it's dead and gone we'll dive into the eye of oblivion The day will come – you'll see, my son, just keep on moving... on and on We took entire world and ripped it all apart (somebody's vicious mind and a wicked heart) and twisted inside out. The day it's dead and gone we'll dive into the eye of oblivion Nobody's safe enough to stray way a little from the pack Nobody's fast enough to dodge a bullet... always in the back Hey, step up to the plate and take a leap of faith

Since the day of my birth, my death began its walk It is walking toward me, without hurrying. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Jean Cocteau Tell me, little friend, what's on your mind? Tell me, boy, where do you think you're going? Hey, you were an easy prey to find: your confusion, outrage is showing I refuse to live my life in fear Hiding in the dark from every shadow Even if I'd feel that the end is near it wouldn't change a thing by now, as I know: empire's weaker than it claims and very soon'll come crashing down in flames Everybody alive's gonna envy the dead yet a wish to survive's getting inside your head Spinning left, turning right as the door's being slammed: you're alone in the night but a Hound of the Damned And no bullet no shell and no demon in hell, and no merciful God's gonna keep us apart Now you're ceasing to be - teardrop in the sand and the last thing you'll see... me, a Hound of the Damned

All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Voltaire An ancient story once been told and saved within a page for centuries, yet now it's bound to burn, we've set the stage: no trial as such - a single match and off you go, no strings attached Black butterflies – a paper ash appearing swiftly, in a flash - they're prowling; still prowling while scorching wind is howling Black butterflies are on my sleeve, these signs of guilt would never leave they're burning, still burning, ascending yet returning We've been created from above yet governed from below So how on earth we're better off - ALL RISE! - the less we know? A sudden turn but we're not concerned: as long as books are being burned Black butterflies – a paper ash appearing swiftly, in a flash - they're prowling; still prowling while scorching wind is howling Black butterflies are on my sleeve, these signs of guilt would never leave they're burning, still burning, ascending - returning Black butterflies are on my hands, this sort of madness never ends, not ever. Forever we'll bear this cross together

The devil's finest trick is to persuade you that he does not exist. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Charles Baudelaire I've been waiting, playing along As expected - you got it all wrong Not to worry – everything will be fine Take your time Smoke and mirrors; it's dawning on me Curtain's falling and all I can see: game is over, you can cancel the show Time to co 'cuz now I know: "We can give you the world and a permanent bliss!" What you're getting for real is a poisonous kiss And you're - out of the blue - coming to realize that you're staring into snake eyes Don't you worry, we'll figure it out Feeling sorry? I'll say it out loud: "We deliver a magnificent show!" You should know, so here we go
