ten tons of nothing at all
explodes into a fireball
listened to my heart
but my heart was wrong
it refuses to apologize
there´s the beauty of my song
you lied to love
you lied to love
drive my car into a lake
destroyer costumes
love gun stage
i love what you say
but i hate what you do
bedwetters,
every one of you
you lied to love
you lied to love
_____
I’m the one running under your gun
I am the one to make your world go around
‘cause I strive and I sweat, so you can get what you get
but I think I better change my style
‘cause the fight that I fight is a fight I despise
No retreat, no escape
Got a knuckle tight
oh ow oh...
I feel like I can’t take it no more
I was so dumb to let you fool me and deceive me
the fuse is lit /Time has come / time is up
the bomb’s about to blow
Ain’t no fun running under the gun
but it’s a way to keep the monster alive
it’s a hunger I feed, for the slog i will bleed
but don’t you think of paiyng with a smile
*Listen*
It’s a tooth for tooth, take a eye for eye
take your share, i don’t care
just give me mine
Hey iii yeah iiii yeah…..
I feel I have been led astray
All of my sacrifice you take it all for granted
Why can’t you see inside of me
(All the) time on the run
(under the gun)
It’s a setting sun
Nothing lost, nothing won
Like made in Taiwan
Eyes wide shut
and I aim by the gut
stuck in a rut
and the shovel it hurts

Waiting for the parasites
I roll in mud
stay dirty to feel your bite
uh,
When you're gonna bite
bite
allright
feed of my flesh
i'd be delighted
I came to meet you
wore my heart on my sleeve
You were not looking,
why so hasty to leave?
I'll give (you) plenty to feed of
Waiting for the parasites
Waiting for the parasites
I yearn in lust
Cause you’re my Afrodit-e
uh,
when you're gonna bite
when you’re gonna make your snakebite
It all seems so pointless
Now hear me cry
I know it's stupid, but I know it would please
To come full circle with this mental disease
I got blood on my fiddle
Waiting for the parasites
Calling out the parasites
feed on me
relentless appetite
Look into the light
look into the bright light
quite right
you know i need it
Love - yours sincerely

Watchman's Requiem
04:00

As soon as the night falls
Put out the fire
Keep on watching
From the hideout
Don't lose sight
Keep awake
Raise alarm if something fails
No return
Oh, sands of time
Is this the moment to leave them behind
Heart is racing
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
Facing the end of the line
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
As you know it
Twilight in the valley
Gunshots rapid flashing
Voices they are wailing
As hooves are wildly trampling
Don't lose sight
Keep awake
Come to fight if something fails
No return
Oh sands of time
Moment has come to leave them behind
Heart is racing
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
Facing the end of the line
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
As you know it
Attacking the pack
Caught off guard by a stab in the back
Without a warning or a sign
There is only one thing left to do
Reach for your guns
Now it is draw or die
You fire your arms
Shoot then get shot
Drop to the ground
Thundering hooves
Blood on the ground
Wetting the sand
Heart is racing
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
Facing the end of the line
Time closes in
Sand’s running out
As you know it
You know it
Yes, you know it

Underwater Prison

further and further into the horses’s mouth
i wasn’t designed to be taken apart
the smell of insufficient apologies
tonite
there’s no parole
please let me go
hot damn
i’m tired of the sights
your love
like an underwater prison
your love
like a black hole
farther and farther from the northern lights
somebody please read me my human rights
i’m tied to a pole
i should be floating in space
tonite
there’s no parole
please let me go
hot damn
i’m tired of the sights
your love
like an underwater prison
your love
it feels like dying
my love

Love Rocket
04:31
|

|
That night the stars were gleaming
so we turned out all the lights
Her touch created starlight
as we lit up the night
We sparkled with excitement
when we made up our minds
knew were we were going
our hearts laid on the line
‘Cause we saw another future, another place to hang around
So we locked our door for love to stay
and when the dawn was breaking, we would both be counting stars
She really took my breath away
Love rocket
We took off like a love rocket
Love Rocket
Packed with love and fit to burn
Love Rocket
We took off like a love rocket
Love rocket
Flying high.
Love made her trust me
to hold her when she’s scared,
to be there when she needs me
her rocket engineer
She took me out of trouble
She brings the best of me
Push me up the ladder
For all the world to see
Cause we saw another future, another place to hang around
So we headed for a one-way ticket rocket ride
And now the dawn is breaking, making love among the stars
Our souls left for the summer sky

you know that you
could have had anyone
you were
a church not made with hands
you were born to be a legend
everybody bows
to your command
i’ve played the part of mute ventriloquist
like a fool
who didn’t read the fine print
you -
everybody’s favourite little nihilist
your kiss
like a urinal mint
you´re making grown
men weep
i’ve defiled you
a thousand times in my sleep
i try to learn from my mistakes
you keep pouring
water
on a drowning man
get up!
heads have got to rock and roll
night woman
you gotta let me go
get down!
and stop acting so surprised
this isn´t your first
rodeo
well you keep banging your drum
and you never miss a beat
can´t hide the crushing disappointment
when revenge
doesn´t taste so sweet
you make a grown man
men weep
i’ve defiled you
a thousand times in my sleep
i learn from my mistakes
you keep pouring water
on a drowning man
get up!
heads have got to rock and roll
night woman
you gotta let me go
get down!
and stop acting so surprised
this isn´t your first
rodeo

Fire it up
get my pistons pumping
been waiting so long
so longing for refueling
Whatever you want me to
Whatever you need me to
Let me do good by you
Pushing it up to the limit
/: we’ll go all night long :/
Let’s settle the score
Breaking it past once you hit it
/: We’ll go all night long :/
gaining more and more
Rough and rusty
Time to join forces
come feel the heat
and the perils of the torches
Whatever you want me to
Whatever you need me to
You know what to gotta do
Let it twist your skin
Never quit or give in
Just take the pain
You know what they don’t realize at all
You’re gaining more
You’re Gary Moore and moore and moore!

Magick Touch Bergen, Norway
Lo, it's been three long years, MAGICK TOUCH return with a surprising twist: a mostly moody and slightly occult-tinged album bearing the curious title Cakes & Coffins. Definitely darker but by no means sacrificing those characteristically majestic MAGICK TOUCH hooks, the trio twist the knife in a different direction that thankfully still sounds 666% like them. ... more
