They are young and they’re kids and believe what they see To do what they’ve been told And so they walk away with open eyes Some are eight or nine or ten And they die like a fly, and no one knows Who they are, they’re smaller than the gun they load See their eyes open wide They died before they ever cried They die in the streets and they die in the fields When they do what they’ve been told But now they’re lying dead Their eyes are closed Some are eight or nine or ten And they die like a fly and no one knows Who they are, they’re smaller than the gun they load See their eyes open wide They died before they ever cried Who taught them how, how to pray Who told them they’re in paradise when they’re gonna die They are blind and they can’t fight They want war They are blind and they can’t fight They want war They are blind and they can’t fight They want war They are blind and they can’t fight They want war! Yeah (They are blind and they can’t fight) (They want war) (...) You’re gonna pay the price You little devil in disguise For taking life with no regard You’ll go to hell and there you’ll burn Children in the battlefield, please don’t go Little birds with fluttering hearts, please don’t go

I just love my nightmares I can’t wait to sleep Enjoying all my dreams And got no regrets I can be a flash of lightning Striking down on rocks Burning down the law Getting things I never got Turning the world Nothing unheard One night can be more than a day Just like a black widow Like a black widow I can’t stand the dreamers Scared of things that fly They just have sweet fantasies And fade and die Nightmares – are so good, so good And they always end – when they should Nightmares are cool, nightmares are cruel I love the fun and the thrill Just like a black widow Just like a black widow Black widow! Just like a black widow Here comes the morning and who can deny Leaving the dream is so hard I love my nightmares, I await their return And this time, I’m dressed to kill, dressed to kill Just like a black widow (black widow) Just like a black widow (black widow) Just like a black widow (black widow) Just like a black widow (black widow) Like, like, like, like, like, like, like a black widow (Black widow) Just like a black widow (Black widow)

Why am I here now? What have I done? Running on empty – I got nowhere to run Can’t get an answer Can’t get it right Just try to make it ‘till the end of the night Is there a way to avoid doing wrong? Lead me away from the darkness Light up my day show me where I belong Please don’t leave me all alone in the darkness Far in the distance There is night, there is day Sounds are waving nets of dismay Sometimes I’m stuck in a shocking delay Like in a slow motion movie I’m reaching out for something to hold Life slips away in the cold, in the cold... My heart is so cold My heart is so cold! Why was I turned down? What’s going on? I wish there was something that could have been done How can I get there? Where is the light? How can I make it ‘till the end of the night? How can I turn darkness to light? Leaving my fear in the darkness Is there a way how can I overcome? My restless night’s and my fear, and my fear In the darkness In the darkness In the darkness In the darkness In the darkness In the darkness ...In the darkness...

Wasn’t there a time When no one lived in pain Zero down to zero but a warrior The innocence of birth The power of the earth Out of all that’s good comes a warrior (Time) is it you who changes minds (Suing us) for something we’ve not done (Stealing the heroes) all the guiding lights, to find the way Justice has been gone To pieces for so long Some killers call themselves a warrior Warriors with no pride Committing suicide The picture of a man that’s your warrior ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom Think about the time Where manhood promised pride And history was made just by warriors We have to face the world And hope that someone’s heard Who could replace a man like the warrior ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom (Time) is it you who changes minds (Suing us) for something we’ve not done (Stealing the heroes) all the guiding lights, to find the way ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom ‘Cause he’s a warrior Yes, he’s a warrior He fights for peace and freedom ...

I’m coming home, home I’m coming home, why don’t you help me? I’m coming home, home I’m coming home, why don’t you love me? It’s time to remember what we’ve done together I guess it is more than we know And we should be open and turn back the wheels As far as we can go I know I am your son and everything else don’t seem real I want you back like never before I can’t take another goodbye I’m coming home, home I’m coming home, please, can’t you be there? I’m coming home, home I’m coming home, please, don’t you leave me What’s done’s done – I’m your son I’ve been hurt by your lies I want peace after all That’s why I want you to let me come home I’m coming home, home I’m coming home, let’s fight together Home, home I’m coming home, I’ve so much to tell you Home, I’m coming home I’m coming home, time heals the scars of the past I’m coming home I’m coming home, to be by your side I’m coming home, I’m coming home I’m coming home, I’ve so much to tell you I’m coming home, I’m coming home

See the man in white He’s old, he wouldn’t dare to fight, to fight another Rocking like a beast upon on a never ending dream We love each other Oh... Asking for a sign, the action’s coming from behind Let’s run for cover! Let’s run... Feel the music’s beat, we fight for rock And in the heat we stand together... together... We’re holding back for you when you fight And we stand for one another We’re holding back for you when you run for cover We’re holding back for you when you fight And we stand for one another We’re holding back for you, when you run for cover Oh... And see those open eyes when you are standing here tonight That’s why we’re holding back for you when you run for cover Restless in the night, we all stand up for this delight We fight together... together... We’re holding back for you when you fight And we stand for one another We’re holding back for you when you run for cover ...
