Lost 02:41
You won't leave us so easy you still have a family and you're going to repay us from the damage you have made Look at the crowds that come to worship you They, just like you, live from a memory You are just a money making puppet but it's just what you deserve You're compleyely disconnected there is no turning back Oh, how I loved you but you always let me down But, unlike you, I can see what's going on

On the Road 05:24
Well, life has been good to me I can't complain I've got all that I wanted I made it Night after night the crowd roars for me but I'm too high to remember where I am Why do I feel so empty inside now that my dream has come true? This is a circus and I'm in the cage with no chance to run away I've got twenty different cars and I live in a mansion I married a super model, we moved to L.A Night after night the girls cry for me and after the show all their dreams come true Why do I feel so empty inside now that my dream has come true? This is a circus and I'm in the cage with no chance to run away My wife called me to say our daughter was born I'll get to meet her when I end this tour Why do I feel so empty inside now that my dream has come true? This is a circus and I'm in the cage with no chance to run away

Summer 02:43
Faraway in time you wish you could be and there's no here one by your side You are locked away in someone else's game and you see no way out All your childhood dreams of a promised land have shattered to pieces And you finally face the underlying truth it's time to move on And you feel so small in the universe so irrelevant And you feel that you can't breathe anymore You're doomed to failure Remember the summer of '68, how every day seemed endless? Do you recognize in yourself the man you wanted to be? And you feel so small in the universe so irrelevant And you feel that you can't breathe anymore You're doomed to failure

I am caught in a maze looking for the way out where's the thrill? where's the joy? Where's the adventure that I once lived for? Am I the person that I once was? I am desperate to find my path again trying to get out Where have the colours gone? 'cause all I see is black and white when was the last time something took my breath away? Now my fantasies are all set in the past trying to wake again the freshness of it all And I fear it won't come back because when you left you took all I was I am caught in a maze looking for the way out Where's the thrill? Where's the joy? Where's the adventure that I once lived for? Am I the person that I once was? I am desperate to find my path again trying to get out Where has the music gone? all those nights that I spent writing? Why did I give up my creativity? Where's the excitement of finding something new? Now all I have left is idealizing the past And I fear it won't come back because when you left you took all I was I am caught in a maze looking for the way out where's the thrill? where's the joy? Where's the adventure? that I lived for Am I the person that I once was? I am desperate to find my path again trying to get out

Meant to Be 02:50
A lifetime later we meet by chance like it was destiny I've always known that you were the one that got away You make me feel like I'm whole again and I see that you feel the same Now we're older and I won't let you get away like the first time Let's run away leave everything behind We'll start a new life just the two of us it's not a dream You make me feel like I'm whole again and I see that you feel the same Now we're older and I won't let you get away like the first time

Unleashed 04:34
I don't want to wake up, I know I'll endure your abuse and the days getting near when I won't be able to hold the monster within Now I'm left all alone what have I done? you were all to me I won't ever be able to live with myself this is the end I hide away on my world where everything's safe I hide away on my own fantasy and you'll never get me there I hide away on my world where everything's safe I hide away on my own fantasy and you'll never get me there

I can't control this hunger I've got to have you now I won't control this hunger you're going to be mine Live like there's no tomorrow there is no other way Live like there's no tomorrow ´cause tomorrow never knows This is my only ritual It's what keeps me alive it's the only thrill left now my life is insane Live like there's no tomorrow there is no other way Live like there's no tomorrow ´cause tomorrow never knows Now I'm free to do what I want Nothing can stop me Now I'm free to do what I want as long as you're with me You are my only escape the one that still remains And if I have you with me there's nothing left to crave Live like there's no tomorrow there is no other way Live like there's no tomorrow ´cause tomorrow never knows Now I'm free to do what I want Nothing can stop me Now I'm free to do what I want as long as you're with me Now I'm free to do what I want Nothing can stop me Now I'm free to do what I want as long as you're with me I try to convince myself That today was the last time but the next day I can't control it and the hunger reigns again

I've grown tired of hoping that you would open your eyes and notice me It has been in vain, you've always been a lost cause and I regret all the time that I lost I wish you could give it back All my life I've been waiting for you to notice me Your neglect has made me stronger nothing has effect on me You were always in your world you didn't let us in even though we were the only ones that cared for you There's no happy ending even though I always hoped I could be your anchor, I could help you I wish I could help you All my life I've been waiting for you to notice me Your neglect has made me stronger nothing has effect on me I wish I could've met you before the veil was broken I loved you but you can't even notice me After all these years my love has turned to rage you abandoned us, I will have my revenge It's your turn to help me All my life I've been waiting for you to notice me Your neglect has made me stronger nothing has effect on me I wish I could've met you before the veil was broken I loved you but you can't even notice me
