Better Than Raw - 1998
This song is instrumental.
They're spending millions for your thrill Collective desperate overkill Wrapped up in harmless words than grin Forbidden games you'll never win The more you see, the more you know Intended media mind control shut down and see how beautiful life can be This is the prime if your lifetime You see through eyes of someone else More than a half of your lifetime Is just a tale in a storybook Push, enforce you independence Push your real intention Face your unconscious addiction Push your private fiction Push It't getting sticker frame by frame You're always staring at the same What is a lie, what is the truth? Incredible disgusting news The world is rought, the end is near Just calculation with your fear Without a shame nor least respect The operators stand erect This is the prime of your lifetime You see through eyes of someone else More than a half of your lifetime Is just a tale in a storybook Push, enforce you independence Push your real intention Face your unconscious addiction Push your private fiction Push SOLO 1: Roland SOLO 2: Michael SOLO 3: Roland
I thouhgt that I felt alright with my world But now that I knew seems taken by someone Probing me, waiting if I take the bait Surrender, step into the line We won't give into the false We are not as dull as taken Someone will hold out if they can They must kill us if they want us to fall When we unite We're falling higher When words collide We'll stand straight in turmoil and fear No harm comming near Hungry forever since we took a glance Feared that the world was taken by someone We realized by the look in your eyes Metal will never die With magic in your hands We are lost-and-found contenders For a kingdom of our stand Come togheter no surrender at all With magic in your hands We are lost-and-found contenders For a kingdom of our stand Come togheter no surrender at all When we unite We're falling higher When words collide We'll stand straight in turmoil and fear No harm comming near No harm comming near No harm comming near We're falling higher SOLO 1: Michael SOLO 2: Roland

Good or profane Odd of even All is face to face Sinner or saint Serve each other Life is called this place Do you know what to choose?

Hey Lord, hey Lord Life is striking, life is short Hey Lord Hey Lord, hey Lord Time is running, time is short. Hey Lord, hey Lord Why did you want us so wayhard? (What is it all about?) SOLO: Michael
Every lie will win a prize Love sold by a whore Claculated sacrifice Death without a war Aftermath and alibies Straw-doll-chess to please the floor Don't tell me of any wonders shiftting gold Don't tell me of a hard way we have to go throutgh Still we pay your warmth out of the cold Do you really think we're blind? Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind Any form of government Has a black sheep part But the brave will never know What the black sheeps start In the name of country-love They enrich themselves apart Don't tell me of any wonders shiftting gold Don't tell me of a hard way we have to go throutgh Still we pay your warmth out of the cold Do you really think we're blind? Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind We are the people, we are the messes you are for We give the power and our desire must be your law Don't think I'm standing here all alone of a kind Don't think because you're still there Means that we are all blind Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind Don't spit on my mind SOLO 1: Michael SOLO 2: Roland
Now we chase the end of time Afraid of what we will find Once again since Jesus christ The stars look down on mankind Revelation Overcome creation False illusions Fade and die Whatever we awaited Charity or hatred Whatever we awaited Will arise It's revelation Revelation Power and prosperity It won't be like before Name, rank and authority Not counting any more Revelation Overcome creation False illusions Fade and die Whatever we awaited Charity or hatred Whatever we awaited Will arise It's revelation Revelation Bemoan your words Bemoan your deeds Repent your thoughts of lies Attain your sword Attain your shield Defend the sense of life Bemoan your hate repent your greed Improve your rotten seed Pray for the child Thought born just by a fraund and a whole Pray for the child Who won't know what's crying for Revelation Overcome creation False illusions Fade and die Whatever we awaited Charity or hatred Whatever we awaited Will arise It's revelation Revelation SOLO 1: Roland SOLO 2&3: Michael
Feel it running off So strong and clear An age is over fast And disappears Help him if you can his hour will come soon Push away his fear He'll see Elysium It's time It's Time Guard him a little while And calm his shiver Wash and dry his tears And cold his fever Take the bibles words Speak it pure his soul Lay love in his mind His close to the final goal It's time It's time It's time to go Time for the freedom Time to face what we all believe in Pray strong Pray to the higher Turn your back on the devil's fire Time to go Time for freedom Time to face what we all believe in Time is passing by When his mind is clear He called your brother Now his brain is dazed It's resigning rather Mother take his hand Say a last Good-Bye We're not gifted to Turn water into wine It's time It's time It's time to go Time for the freedom Time to face what we all believe in Pray strong Pray to the higher Turn your back on the devil's fire Time to go Time for freedom Time to face what we all believe in Time is passing by SOLO: Michael

I believe what we called a game Is more than just a handful of pain I still remember every hour Every second has been hours Far away from many burden We met eyes without a curtain Headless into a new sensation Wether brain nor fear of patience Careless we had a game to play you crossed my way for twenty days Why don't you just heal The yearning that I feel? Hey, what we called a game Is more than just a handful of pain We got the wrong ways Cause I believe it's more than just a handful of pain We got the wrong ways Cause I believe it's more than just a handful of pain We're different colours, diferent nature Both we weer like pupil and teacher It's a puzzle with two pieces Still not done 'cause one still misses Helpless I go through unknown stages A chapter of life which has missing pages Torture not owly phisical It pains unbound, way way down The yearning that I feel? Hey, I believe what we called a game Is more than just a handful of pain We got the wrong ways Cause I believe it's more than just a handful of pain We got the wrong ways Cause I believe it's more than just a handful of pain SOLO 1: Michael SOLO 2: Roland

We can race over the mountains Sail over the spheres We can ride under the oceans But we can't fight our fear Something's wrong with the world these days Do you know what it is? We believe to gebern nature Find ways to lengthen our life And we go through digital stages Still the children cry Something's wrong with the world these days Do you know what it is? The planet could be a better place If we spot the miss But I guess I would see a start And I will sing it loud Won't put your feet Back to the ground We explore the existence of aliens Try to conquer space We refine nuclear science Still to die in the haze Something's wrong with the world these days Do you know what it is? The planet could be a better place If we spot the miss But I guess I would see a start I warn you without doubt Won't put your feet Back to the ground SOLO 1: Roland SOLO 2: Michael SOLO 3: Roland
Tried so hard to understand all of your feelings Tried to cope with your insanities Come to think about too many ways of healing What we lost or maybe never had One small step into the hidden decoy One more world is help and one will destroy I woke up in the midnight sun So aware damage has been done Agony or sanctuary Only fate will show the way From the bright of day into the jaw of darkness One is shoved, a victim of lie friendly face turns into a fiery grimace Suddenly feelings learn to die Used up sympathy no chance to return To a world one know but would's that will burn Spent more time in the midnight sun Still aware of what else has gone Agonized and hypnotized When will I be shown the way Fell asleep and no midnight sun Still aware justice has been done No more doubts but disbelief When the night was day Celebration, miracle And fate did show the way SOLO 1: Roland SOLO 2: Michael
