1. Instability

Rainy clouds and cold winds ride the sky
And I ride the highway
I go so far I feel so strong tonight
Tonight
I'm a saint, I'm a priest, I'm a killer mind
I'm a liar
Who can't see the truth in your eyes
Never

Through the empty space that lives inside my heart
Inside my soul
I want to finally understand who I am
I want to reach a distant horizon now
I want to see the wind that rides across an empty space
Now

Set on fire the hate and the rage
That live at the end of my soul
Can you see? Can you hear?
Oh let me live my life
I don't want to hear you
I can't control my mind
My reaction

Madness and genius are the same thing
And it sometimes takes
A solitary mind to be destroyed
By the
Superficiality of a sad world
Where we
Can find only temporary dreams
Of happiness

Set on fire the hate and the rage
That live at the end of my soul
Can you see? Can you hear?
Oh let me live my life
I don't want to hear you
I can't control my mind
My reaction

2. Queen Of Solitude

I feel something
That sometimes locks up my soul
It stays with me night and day
I feel something
That sometimes
Doesn't leave me alone
The queen of solitude
Who decides for us

She dances
Around me and won't let me go
She walks with me but
No one can hear
Her steps in the dark
And her voice

Sometimes we are not
As strong as we think
Sometimes we want
To escape reality
But it's not easy
Close the eyes and go on
The queen of solitude
Who decides for us

She dances
Around me and won't let me go
She walks with me but
No one can hear
Her steps in the dark
And her voice

Like a waterfall
Of distant memories
She invades my confused mind
Like an hurricane
She destroys
My delicate defence wall

3. Heart Of Stone

I stopped crying
Some years ago
When I was so young

I stopped smiling
Some years ago
When I lost my soul

Do you want to know me?
Who are you for me?
Look deeply into my eyes

What can you see?
What can you read?
Is it too dark for you here?

Don't walk near my thoughts
Don't walk near me

My name is heart of stone
I live at the edge of time
In solitude – I'm so sad

My name is heart of stone
And I talk to the moon
With all my voice

Who is the winner?
Who is the liar?
Do you know the truth?

Who is the victim?
Who is the hangman?
Can you decide for me?

If I see black
And he sees white
What colour do you see?

If he goes fast
And I slow down
Can you stop my fall?

Don't walk near my thoughts
Don't walk near me

My name is heart of stone
I live at the edge of time
In solitude – I'm so sad

4. Don't Waste Your Time

Why do you run?
And what are you searching for?
Sometimes simple things
Are near you

Why don't you think
More for yourself
Try to leave all the problems
Far from here

Take your time and have a lot of fun
Close your eyes and try to dream
Take your time fly with your fantasy
And forget everyone
And forget the enemies

Don't waste your time,
Your fantasy
That life is short and like you know
We can't turn back

Don't waste your time
To search for
Something that will not arrive
Don't waste your time

Sometime we need to stay alone
To look for what we have inside
Sometimes we need to empty our mind
To erase the past and to begin a new life

Take your time and have a lot of fun
Close your eyes and try to dream
Take your time fly with your fantasy
And forget everyone
And forget the enemies

Don't waste your time,
Your fantasy
That life is short and like you know
We can't turn back

5. Who Am I?

Lost in a deep abyss
I don't know who I am
Lost in a deep abyss
Who am I? Who are you?

We swim in the mud day after day
In the deep of darkness
We are navigators
Who don't know where to go

Now where is the light?
Why do I feel so strange
I don't know the reason (why)

To tell lies everyday
To forget the reason why
Who I am now (and) who I was before

We are here to escape
From the future that scares us
To escape before it's too late

My life is a white page now
To paint everyday
Sitting in my car I drive
Through the end of the day

These chains lock me in a cage
I see strange images
I dream with open eyes
In the wind my thoughts fly

Now where is the light?
Why do I feel so strange
I don't know the reason (why)

To tell lies everyday
To forget the reason why
Who I am now (and) who I was before

I'm blind in a white room
All is dark inside me
I'm searching for a place
Where I can disappear

I can hear the sounds
Of steps coming near me
The madness is so strange
I can't control my mind

Now where is the light?
Why do I feel so strange
I don't know the reason (why)

To tell lies everyday
To forget the reason why
Who I am now (and) who I was before

6. The Fortress

Once upon a time
In a desert land
A fortress silence and solitude

The stars in the sky
During the night
And the sun shining at day

A soldier here waits
For the coming of the enemy
But the time goes so fast
And the battle doesn't arrive

But now the time is passing by
And now you know that
The only fight in your life
Is the fight against death

In a room you fight against death and you
Hear the voices of soldiers who live the dream (for you)

Someone comes back home
Tired of waiting
To believe in anything
To wait for the enemies from the north
Enemies that don't arrive

A soldier still waits
He forgot where he were born
He forgot all his friends
For the glory and for his dream

But now the time is passing by
And now you know that
The only fight in your life
Is the fight against death

7. Stories

Against the problems of everyday
Jim takes his guitar and starts to play
And with the music all the problems are so far from here

Jim writes its songs and with his band
He starts to play in every pub
And all his dreams are close to reality

He's not a star
But believes in what he does
He does it for fun but

We walk on a narrow road
And no one
Will leave his place to let you go on
Play for your liberty
You have to believe
In what you do, fight the envy of man
And go on day after day against the wind

Jane writes his poems during the night
When all her friends start to sleep
And with the pen she thinks the dreams become reality

She writes about wishes and dreams
And she doesn't sleep 'cause now
She feels strong enough not to dream during the night

She's not a star
But believes in what she does
She does it for fun but

We walk on a narrow road
And no one
Will leave his place to let you go on
Play for your liberty
You have to believe
In what you do, fight the envy of man
And go on day after day against the wind

John has lost his job
And doesn't know what to do
To pay the rent for his flat
To search for a job

Many doors are closed for him
'cause he's not a young man
He would like to turn back
To have another chance

We walk on a narrow road
And no one
Will leave his place to let you go on
Play for your liberty
You have to believe
In what you do, fight the envy of man
And go on day after day against the wind

8. Child's Prayer

Locked in my room I look
Through the window and I see the night but
It's lightened by
By the flames and I see
The human madness that burns in the streets

I'm a child with a look of terror (in my eyes)
I have many questions and no reply
But I want to forget
And I want to delete
The image of a man who dies

Over the walls of this town
I dream of places where I can run
Where I can play with my friends
I'm a child and not a man

When the morning will come
I will try to forget
All the insanity that now
I can't delete
And then in memory of these nights
I will cry tears of rage
In my nightmares I will see
These nights of violence

Closed in my room I pray
But my mind is now far away from here
'cause I have lost my faith
And I think about the place
Full of happiness and smiles

Where the sun always shines
And the night we can live a life of fun
I don't want see any more
Cars on fire in the streets
Guns that kill other men and then blood

Over the walls of this town
I dream of places where I can run
Where I can play with my friends
I'm a child and not a man

When the morning will come
I will try to forget
All the insanity that now
I can't delete
And then in memory of these nights
I will cry tears of rage
In my nightmares I will see
These nights of violence

9. The Prison

I'm tire, tonight I will watch TV
I turn up the TV and what do I see?
Talk show, commercials and bad films
I find everywhere the same show

The media rules to sell dreams, to sell desires,
To sell time

They lock up our minds in a prison of deceit and opportunism to deceive us
They sail through the minds to find a leak in our personalities, a little insecurity

Politicians who scream to win, someone tries to sell
A product for your body and for your mind
Saints and prostitutes in the same show
For the sponsor and for a better audience

The media rules to sell dreams, to sell desires,
To sell time

They lock up our minds in a prison of deceit and opportunism to deceive us
They sail through the minds to find a leak in our personalities, a little insecurity

Yes, I'm tired but perhaps I can go to the pub
Where my friends are there to drink and talk
But tonight I turn off the TV and I go to bed
It's better to try to dream...

The media rules to sell dreams, to sell desires,
To sell time

They lock up our minds in a prison of deceit and opportunism to deceive us
They sail through the minds to find a leak in our personalities, a little insecurity

10. Run If You Can

(бонус)
оригинал: Accept

Run on up, run on down
Be a step ahead in time
Don't you stop to look in his eyes
He wants your soul, he wants your mind

He'll tear you apart
He'll rip you asunder
Stretch your mind, so look out

Hearts must break, hearts must bleed
When you heed the demon's call
Death is near, light is the speed
Flashing out "just kill them all"

Eat out your heart
Dark master of thunder
Lord of darkness and doubt

Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive

Ooh, when it is all over
You've surrendered to the night
Out of the day, knowning no way
Deadly is the demon's night

All you know
Is a real world, real men
Love – what they need, it's gone

Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive

Hearts must break, hearts must bleed
When you heed the demon's call
Death is near, light is the speed
Flashing out "just kill them all"

Eat out your heart
Dark master of thunder
Lord of darkness and doubt

Run if you can, shake off the devil
Man, don't you pay with your life
Run if you can, deadly and evil
He's hell on earth and he's alive

And he's alive

Run...
