Rapture 04:54
its a long long way to Valhalla it's an empty life till we meet we hatch an egg then we watch it we eat and drink like we'll never get another meal we talk of nothing we fly we fall we kiss what do we know of Rapture like this 9 times they deceived me 9 for 9 now they're gone and I'm on my own on a page from Kafka eating and drinking like I'lll never have another good time I'm a stone soul leper in a crazy country I fly alone missing you all the way what do I know of Rapture today I'll fly away to a better world I'll fly away with you I'll fly away to my real home Someday soon

Make me an army don't make it out of men make it out of every lie that burned our hearts again we fell for the dream when we were young it seemed so glorious but they turned it into mockery and the killing is victorious so make me an army to keep them all at bay I can't believe them any more they've taken my life and that's the way it should be that's all right with me I'll take my chances going out singing for the memories the blood that's lying on the ground the pain in a million hearts the old walls are lying down it tears our souls apart so make me an army don't make it the same old way it's been too long it's gone to wrong make it like the Judgement Day

The things I tell myself will get me in trouble again what put me on the shelf was not any person Blame it on the Moon Try to remember it well blame it on the stars how can I blame it on anyone else Days of mirrored glass nights of raging fire this will also pass at the end of my desire Blame it on the moon.... Talking to an empty hole taking it all to the sea some people must live with nothing at all some people want another me It will be all right just wait a little longer every time we fight we make the evil stronger Blame it on the moon....

Everyday you hear it someone's going under everyday there's something more What are we doing where are we going doesn't anybody care I don't want to go under I'm sliding down the slippery slope I don't want to lose everything I don't want to be thrown out in the cold I can't make the payment I can't make the sky drop brainy acts I can't tell the people why i do it like I do it I've got to watch out for maniacs Look we're going under look we're sliding down the slippery slope Look we're losing everything look we're being thrown out in the cold Hey Oh Hey Oh Hey Oh It's allright Hey Oh you know what you do it's not right I don't want to go under... Don't let us lose everything... Set the wheels in motion take care of the ones you made we're like ships out on the ocean falling into the deep getting afraid

Johnny is a soldier Johnny wears a uniform the Grim Reaper is standing at the door Suzy is a mother she's worried about everything the Grim Reaper doesn't even sing Jesus is my best friend standing right in front of me saying 'keep on letting it all roll off your back till there's nothing left of you. And I'll be true." Harry is a unicorn eats a lot of grass everybody keeps running out of gas 30 percent is way too much I don't know what to say You need a key to get in but there's nothing there when you stay oh Johnny's still a soldier Johnny wears a uniform the Grim Reaper still standing at the door forevermore forevermore Mary is a mother she's worried about everything that old Grim Reaper doesn't even sing

Sail Away 04:40
from the lies and the problems from the bitter words and pain from the endless cost of living from the murder and the rain Sail Away Sail Away I would rather be a crab scuttling on the ocean floor I try to be with you but I always fall down at your door I'll Sail Away I'll Sail Away From my window I see snow falling never seems to go away there's a future I don't know calling I can only see today until tomorrow from the cruel voices take me away with you I have made so many choices there's so much I cannot do I'll Sail Away I'll Sail Away from everything from the lies...money money money Sail Away
