Hey there stranger
Hey there traveler
Why won't you buy me a drink or two
Buy me a drink or two
And I will tell you what I do

I have a book of stories
And they are all for you
Just buy me a drink or two
I will open up my soul to you

Hey there stranger
Hey there friend
Why won't you buy me a drink or two
And I will tell you how I sold my soul
I sold my soul for a drink
And a story book

I heard her voice
I heard the promises she made
And I sold my soul
I sold my soul for a penny
And a drink or two

Hey there stranger
Hey there wanderer
Why won't you buy me a drink or two
Buy me a drink or two
And run before they get you too
Run before they get you too

From the gutter to the power
From the child to the man
Placed a gun in my hand
Now aim
Bang bang
Don't even know your name

Growing up in the leftovers of the life
Knowing only death
Nothing ever came easy around
Knowing that the only way out was six feet underground
This was my life
Only death was around

From dusk till dawn
From the bottom to the top
Aim
Bang bang
Here comes the pain
Don't even know your name
Don't even know your name

It takes only a second to ruin a life
And a life time to make things right
I wanna get out
I wanna get out

When I close my eyes
I hear only one song inside
It's from Kansas, "Carry On Wayward Son"

Living in the desert
In the land that time forgot
Waiting here to find a sign
Sign of what was lost

Should I stay or should I go
In this place that I used to call my home
Where happiness only lasted for a moment
Before reality took over

Broken dreams turned hearts into stone
And I feel all of them inside my soul
If broken words could heal the world
There would be no pain at all

Should I stay or should I go
Running is the only thing that I have ever known
If there is hope inside this place
I do not feel it anymore

I am lost, and I have fallen
Like this place I am broken
My heart was damaged more than once
And my body has been split inside out

Should I stay or should I go
So much pain inside this world
Broken promises that twist the souls
Shattered dreams turn hearts to stone
Hearts into stone
Hearts into stone
hearts into stone

And I am ripped between two worlds
Broken and unknown
Which one do I call my home
My home, my home

I started from the ground
Perfect was my law
Never broke a word
Never told a lie
Soon started to become dead inside
Believing in the best
Thinking that there was something more precious - than the gold inside the chest
What a fool I was
Thinking that it was all for a greater good
When it was just another lie to chain my soul
And to fill their pockets full of gold

You can break my heart
I will recover
You can break my soul
I will come back stronger than before
Pretty words to hide the truth
Shiny rocks to hide the darkness in their hearts
I must have been a fool
To believe that it was all for a greater good
For a greater good, for a greater good

I saw a monster in it's true form
She looked like me and you
I saw an angel thrown out of heaven
And it broke my heart
For we are closer to the dark

I often wonder if the saint is more a sinner
And a sinner more a saint
If the lies bring only comfort
And the truth brings only pain

You can break my heart
I will recover
You can break my soul
I will come back stronger than before
Pretty words to hide the truth
Shiny rocks to hide the darkness in their hearts
I must have been a fool
To believe that it was all for a greater good
For a greater good, for a greater good

At nights I am sitting on the floor
Writing my story as it goes
Knowing that I might be wrong
But I am no fool, no more
I know the world is circling all broken
And I wish it was just open
I know that hearts are often filed with pain
But I wish there was only happiness inside their will
I wish that we did not have to cry at all
And that there was only joy inside the soul
There was only joy inside my soul
Only joy inside the soul

They say that time heals all wounds
But I know that it's just not true
They say that life is not a game
But I am losing yet again

Happiness is a dream that I forgot
It's the hope that slips away
It's a light that I have inside
But the darkness covers it away

They say that in time I will forget
But I think that pain is all we ever get
I can try to push the memories away
But the pain just finds a way to stay

If the time supposed to heal all wounds
Why don't my cuts just fade away
If I am supposed to smile every day
Why do I keep praying for the night to come again

If the time keeps passing by
And I do not see the hope inside
Will you really make me stay
Sometimes there is nothing left to say
It's just time to fade away
It's time to fade away

Smile in the morning
And say hello
The same old thing
Life is a repeating game

Bright and early rushing out the house
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Bright and early rushing out the house
Knowing that we are going nowhere

We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!
We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!

Bright and early we play this game
When we wake up, and we dress up
We go to work and then come home again
Bright and early we play this game
Where we find a spouse, and get a house
When we have a kid or two, and that's about it
Bright and early we play this game
When every week is just the same
Soon those weeks turn into a year
And a year into another year
Your life is slowly passing by
And before you know it it's almost time to say goodbye

We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!
We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!

Does anyone know what it's like to be the strange man
To be the sad man
To be the mad man
To be found
But feel like you are lost again

We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!
We are living in a mad world
In it only the mad are sane!

Only when you swim against the current
You know what it takes to be free
The days are collected in a long chain
Breath in, breath out
Move forward, feel the push back
Here behind bars illusion is life
My freedom is a radio station

I am free like a bird in the sky
I am free, I am alive

Being different - is always alone
Chose what you are: hammer or a board
Freedom doesn't come cheep
It takes everything you have
And often it's still isn't enough
At least I have a receiver in my hand

I'm free like a bird in the sky
I am free, I am alive
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive

Pen, paper, answers to questions
Interrogations, again questions
My receiver - one way communication
I cannot say, but I hear
I saw rich become poor
Poor become free
Some things you can not be erased
No matter how hard you scrub
Freedom is something that I have inside

I'm free like a bird in the sky
I am free, I am alive

I close my eyes and hear the screams outside
They are coming for my crown
Let them try to take me down
But I am not going out without a fight
I stated from the ground
Did everything I could to get myself to the top

I was an underdog
I was like a god inside their eyes
They held me up
Up so high
But once I got the world inside my hand
They turned their backs on me
And placed spotlight right in front of me
One mistake and they want to tear me down
But I am not going to be pushed around
They can try to take away my throne
But I got here in my own
They can try to take away my crown
But I will protect it with all I got

I close my eyes and take a breath
I lay down my crown and make a stand
All I ever did was for the best
To protect my kingdom I took no rest
No crown I asked for when I was growing up
But once I got it I embraced it with my life

Take me down to the edge of the world
Show me that if I fall, there will be someone there
Take me down to the fires of hell
Show me that the damned man can still pray
Take me down to the heavens gate
Wash the poison off my skin
Make me whole again
Take me down to the mountains
And see If I still breath
Take me down to the ocean
And ask me what I see
What I see, what I see
Ask me what I see

I see the world that is falling around me
A man that is begging on the side of the street
No second look does he get from you and me
I see a mother crying on the floor
Her son just died in war
He is one of many on the wall
I see a child jumping from the bridge
She was forsaken by her kin
For never fitting in
I see, I see
The things that I see
They can fill a book of misery

If we only open our hearts
Put the gold on the side
If we only open our minds
And see that being different is being alive
Being kind In this world
It will not cost you a dime
But It might save someones life
It might save someones life

Take me down to the edge of the world
Show me that it is not over for all
Take me down to the fires of hell
Show me there is hope inside a damned man
Take me down to the heavens gate
Wash away the pain I am in
Take me down to the heavens gate
Make me whole again

There is a light
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
You are not alone at night

There are many that are lost
They are slowly reaching out
Just open up your heart
And listen to the calls outside
Listen to the calls outside

If you feel that you are alone
And the pain is getting strong
And you feel like giving up
Look inside you and be strong
Cast your fears aside
You are not alone
You are not alone

The road ahead is long
It's full off empty holes
The sea is filled with lies
Worlds get broken all the time

But you are not afraid
No, you are not afraid anymore
Because you know
You know that you are not alone
You are not alone
Not alone
Not alone

Ever since I could remember
Everything inside of me
Just wanted to be free
Never really fitting in
The picture perfect frames my image didn't stay

I was never one for pretending
For playing part in others games
I didn't think that it would be easy
Didn't change a thing

If you can hear me now
I am reaching out
To tell you that I don't regret a thing
And if you can not tell
You should be scared
I am the regret that will hunt you until the end
Until the end

Looking for an easy way out was not for me
Being different from the rest has set me free
And if I am a broken in their eyes - let it be
I am the best version I can be

And if they had turned heir backs on me
I will survive, and I will thrive
Being different from the rest
It made me feel alive

If you can hear me now
I am reaching out
To tell you that I don't regret a thing
And if you can not tell
You should be scared
I am the regret that will hunt you until the end
Until the end

I am only a man
With a goal in life
I am taking a stand
I am only a man
But I will rule all the same
I will rule all the same

Rising from the ashes
Light inside the darkness
Never knew it could be so hard
Being on the right side

Can you hear them screaming
The storm is coming
And I am not running
It's time for me to make a stand
It's time for me to leave my mark

The world is broken
But I am still breathing
My heart has stopped
But I still feel it
It all goes down tonight
This is where I leave my mark

I'm coming out of hiding
Showing my face from within the crowd
And the monsters that I'm fighting
Well, I'm not the only one

The world is broken
But I am still breathing
My heart has stopped
But I still feel it
It all goes down tonight
This is where I leave my mark

When this song is over
You will feel the hope inside the dark
And the many will stand as one
There is a light inside of us
And it all lights up with a single spark

When I was a child I heard voices
They kept telling me it's time to fade
I could not hide, nor run away
Inside my head they were telling me to fade away

When I was a child I heard voices
They kept screaming inside my head
I soon had learned that I had no power
I could barely turn my eyes away

I was hopeful for what was ahead
But my voices kept telling me that I would fade away
I could not see the life ahead
But I knew that no lie was stuck inside my head

When I was a child I heard voices
No good they ever had to say
For hours they would tell me that I would fade away
We are all just pictures in a frame

When I was a child I heard voices
Told me stories of what lied ahead
They would change my ways
Turned me into a better man I am today

At times I let the voices in
In hopes to numb the pain
I wasn't giving in
Just resting
Just resting to save my skin

When I was a child I heard voices
They kept telling me it's time to fade
I soon had learned I had few choices
That's the lesson that made me who I am today

So many times I asked myself
Why was I born in this world
So many times I asked myself
Is there a purpose to this life I own

I would fly to the moon
But no wings I have
It's calling me from the far
But I am life time way

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

How many more times must I stand alone in this world
How many more times must I fight in this war
How many more times must I fall on my knees
And start from scratch, and repeat it all over, all over, all over,
Repeat it all over, all over, all over

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

I'll wait a little bit longer, longer
And then prepare myself for the journey, journey
I dream of a world
World found only-only in stories, stories

Show me the light in the night
I'm tired and all beet up
Ready to strike
So, here I go

It started with a spark
And burned into the dark
Now here I go

They gave us orders
Don't care who lives or dies
Blood will never dry
So here I go

One plus one is always one
In love two hearts collide
In war only one survives
Now here I go

Oh sweet ignition be my fuse
Let the fire judge all of the powers
Let the world burn to the ground
Perhaps it's time for a fresh start
So here I go

Oh sweet ignition be my fuse
Let the fire judge all of the powers
Let the world burn to the ground
Perhaps it's time for a fresh start
Now here I go

We drank their wine
We embraced in their lies
So here i go

The world is dying
And we all played our parts
Now here I go

We had the power to help another
Instead we listened to the once on top
And washed ourselves in others blood
No bigger monsters were there than us
So here i go

Our enemies and loved once die for others lies
And we turned this world to the rust and soon to dust
I still hope that there is time for all of us to rise
No more following the lies

Now here I go
Hear I go
So hear I go
Hear I go
Now hear I go

One plus one is always one
In love two hearts collide as one
In war only one survives
So here we are

This story of you and me
Is of a broken heart and a destiny
When I meat the love of my dreams
And everyone else has disappeared

You made me believe that love was real
And my heart kept skipping every other beat
For you, I made the world around me disappear
For you, everything I did was just for you

I am gonna love you
Like there is no tomorrow
I am gonna hold you
Like the world is ending around you

I am gonna love you
Like there is no tomorrow
I am gonna love you
Like the world

And every time that you are near me
I am gonna pull you little bit closer
Taking this time to whisper "I love you"
Together we are stronger than ever

My world was always covered in darkness
Never really knew what it means to  live in the light
Then you walked into my life
And I saw the light

I am tired of writing the same old story
Repeating the years of my so called former glories
Now I am ready to turn this page over

I am tired of writing the same old story
Repeating the years of my so called former glories
Now I am ready to turn this page over

I saw all the warning signs
Ignored them all, stayed safe inside
But once I saw enough I lost my mind
I am looking up, and kneeling down
The sky is burning, and the ground is boiling hot

I did my part, I tried my best
I gave my heart, I took no rest
Still, it was not enough
But I'll know full well, I did my part

Yeeeah, I did my part

Here I am, don't turn away
I am broken, and I feel the pain
Here I am, don't turn away
I am still here, my heart is not standing still

I'm waking up to ash and the dust
I raise my flag and protect the once I love
My heart is beating overtime
To help this broken body save another life
Save another, save another life

Time will tell, if I left my mark
But I know full well, I did my part
I know full well, I did my part
I know, I did my part
Yeeeah, I did my part

Nine one one
No one is ever around
Nine one one
They are coming for us
One by one they will take us down
Corrupt little pigs with a badge and a gun

Blue color, gold shield
What ta hell does it mean
Bullet in the head
Nobody wants to save you

Walking around isn't safe anymore
I got arrested for wearing a hood in a poor neighborhood
Search a nigga down
Shoved my face to the ground
Nothing I had
Nothing was found
Pushed me away
Said never come here again

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

Free I was driving, no worry I had
Until little troll trumpets had sounded
Letting me know to take out my pennies and quarters
All I have done was drive 55 when it was 35

My eyes turned to ocean
My body became like volcano
The world is on fire
The are people dying
The angels we need sit inside Burger King

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

My words are so broken
My hate will make them stronger
I know it is wrong
But leave me alone

Rails, rails, sleepers, sleepers
Out the window another stop I'm passing
Rails, rails, sleepers...
Running late, my life is like damaged vessel

Life has passed, what did I accomplish?
My life, It's like an empty barrel
On the floor, I keep on writing stories
To the conclusion I am getting closer

White leaf fell off the tree
Another page I've never finished
Knocking wheels, I put another dot
Life is a movie, not a breath of freedom

Finished.

Rails, rails, sleepers, sleepers
Out the window another stop I'm missing
Rails, rails, sleepers, sleepers
Running late, my life is like damaged vessel

Life is a game and I'm never winning
Outside, all the missed out seconds
This show is almost over
And I am still looking for - for my passage...

You been dancing around me
In the night I will set you free
Just whisper in my ear
Ask for anything, anything you need

Tell me where you want to go
Tell me what you want to do
No matter If It's false or true
I will do it all for you

If you fall I will get you, I will get you
I be your red suit savior
Just fallow my words
I am the devil you know

Come in closer, step over the line, step over the line
So I can take your soul
And we can play all night long
We can play all night long
I am the devil, you know

You can try to get away
But I am here to stay
I know you deepest desires
I set no restrictions on them

No guilt, nor remorse
This world is all yours
I offer no pain
No lie in my will
Only pleasure I give
Only pleasure I give
And that's the sweetest sin
