17. My Choice Is it not the choosing that makes the life we live so intricate? Are the options we have too endless to control? Can we oversee the offers and their demands and their goals? Can we oversee our own needs if we do not know What it is we really want? Our minds, instead of our hearts What we feel confuses our thoughts Security, an ancient quest Standing alone, the ultimate test Still we search for warmth in the materialized luxuries in life The times have changed but we are still the same Another choice 'cause we still don't know Let me see where I belong Let me be a little part of it Can I choose my way in life? Can I dream, can I feel? Could I know my choice? A choice without the illusion that luck is for sale 'cause I have all that money can buy A choice means freedom And endless options Can we survey that? Can freedom be controlled? The option's bitter It leaves a part of you behind the borders of your choice Let me see where I belong Let me be a little part of it Can I choose my way in life? Can I dream, can I feel? Could I know my choice? Let me see where I belong Let me be a little part of it Can I choose my way in life? Can I dream, can I feel? Could I know my choice? 18. Beneath Bewildered by silence Stuck by its questions and lucid ways to make us aware I did not know how cruel that could be That so many cases will never be solved That so many stories will never be told I did not know how cruel that could be Fighting a war that rages inside The world can't see the hate that burns in there How can we face what lies beneath, If we just fear and don't fight back? How many questions left unanswered? How many tears and inner strength shall we need? How many times can we encounter this again and again? How many things exist that blind us? How many forms of brutal violence can we see? How many images of pain will make us numb So hard, so cruel, we fail to see, we fail to feel? So afraid, even without the courage of despair? Fighting a war that rages inside The world can't see the hate that burns in there How can we face what lies beneath, If we just fear and don't fight back? Afraid of ourselves, arfaid to stand up I did not know how cruel that could be We failed to see, we failed to feel Still afraid, what if you love someone? What if this happened to your loved ones? What would you do if you were there at that time? What makes you act like nothing happened? Nothing's wrong, you're doing fine? What makes you think you are immune to this? What drove us so far to the edge of tolerance? If judging and accusing is so easy, then why Why still? Fighting a war that rages inside The world can't see the hate that burns in there How can we face what lies beneath, If we just fear and don't fight back? 19. Digital Deceit Come enter, here's my world Closed off from pain and cold Come enter, come inside A secret place of light 'Cause in this world I'm rid of you You can't get through So here I am, and I'm beautiful And all my friends would say the same So here I am, and you cannot deny That I am someone you'd embrace I am the queen, I'm pure and loved By everyone Come enter, here's my code Through the world wide wire you'll know me The queen of her own world My story, meet my life So now you see, there is another me Not someone insecure and strange My father's will in here, it doesn't mean a thing And I don't fear his violent rage I am the queen, you know I'm loved By everyone Come enter, here's my code Through the world wide wire you'll know me The queen of her own world Stop dreaming, and wake up Your silly world is not what's real This world of fake friends and computers Digital deceit This cyber wall (this cyber wall) Is built to break out or hold The choice is yours (the choice is yours) Will you dream or see what's real Oh... no, no more Just let me be alone with myself These conflicting thoughts increase my doubts I am the queen, I must be loved This so-called 'wall' is there to protect A life controlled by keys Closed off from pain and cold 20. Two Sides Somehow everything's getting worse My fight is just one of their struggles And have I seen it all Oh no, now their hate's reaching the top And guess who's to blame And guess who's responsible If pain is our line The one that connects us in life Should we hold on I only feel their shame when I'm near Life should be more than this Should be warmer than this Cause there's more grief and pain, oh yes There is more than what I caused Things beyond me And their eyes reflect things They'll never say out loud If pain is our line, The one that connects us in life Should we hold on Our dreams, ambitions and passion Our plans for the future, our combined goals A life with status, respect and adoration Our wishes and hope destroyed at once Without those things to connect us A life together is even worse than alone We all need two sides of the story Two sides,one can become a reflection Of the truth, a lie You'll be judging soon Two sides, they both have their emotions Opinions and thoughts On who's to blame on reality, can you tell If pain is our line The one that connects us in life Should we hold on 21. Sins Of Idealism Hello father, hello mother There is so much I don't get Please don't be mad at me I will try harder I'll really do the best I can That's not enough You're the cause of my domestic captivity And I will close my eyes And fantasize of a world that's not so cold That's how it will be, suffer the causes Of my personal misery. I've sacrificed My beauty, my freedom, my dreams The independent me Hello father, hello mother Don't blame me for things I didn't do Yes, I will go now, and I'll be silent Please stop your screaming, and love me! That's all you can see Speak of love while You've ruined what's meant to be And then I'll close my eyes To fantasize of a world Where I can be free And free to be Sinner or righteous, the line is so thin Can you condemn it? Can you be the one to judge it all, or accuse Yourself if the sentence is your life Hello father, hello mother Forgive me for standing in your way I just wanted someone Who'd hold me and listen Are these illusions, are they Only fantasies? Imagine how my life would have been I would still have My beauty, my freedom, my dreams The independent me Our course in life is a path we must take Alone no one can choose what to do, only you So the sins we commit are the struggles within There's no judge to decide what is right What is wrong Tell me, can you live in freedom Knowing that your choice hurt someone? Once, we had a life, and now we have you The saviour of love is a catastrophe I'll leave you both If I must give up my dreams My chances aren't here with you I won't be chained because of this The sins of all, the sinner in me I follow my dreams, you call it blasphemy If my ideals are sins To me, they are the strength within Then I shall stay a sinner! I can be free,and free to be Sinner or righteous, the line is so thin Can you condemn it? Can you be the one to judge it all Or accuse yourself, if the sentence is your life 22. Eccentric What do they see when they look at me? Who are they to judge me If they never spoke with me Never looked without laughing Never tried to see, see me I can't believe that it is only me The person to hate The only left out I can't believe how they can be so mean If they could feel The brutal stings of their words And the bitter cold when they laugh Once more I'm running Running away, I must hide Can't take anymore A fight to free me From an endless struggle with life Running, tell me how far should I go If they're all the same This fight I'm fighting my way through I don't really want to be like them The way they behave The way that they live I don't really need someone No people like that Someone in a world with wars and respite A world without the feeling I must be running Running away, I must hide Can't take anymore A fight to free me From an endless struggle with life Running, tell me how far should I go If they're all the same This fight I'm fighting my way through 23. Life's Vortex My mind is under an attack Although no one sees My past is pounding In the back of my memories It's always there to poison my mind With all I do Feelings I know so well seem to come back As if nothing's ever changed Fear was one of the reasons to crawl away Into a world I lost I know the rules, I play the game But somehow it always stays the same In spite of my will, in spite of my hope In spite of it all So for those who believe in this life Spin right on this circle – must be round Every turn has its vortex You'll drown if nobody warns you And shows you another circle of life Nothing will change Nothing is done for the victim I am forced to remain Cause these days make you feel And you are on your own Study, work hard,marry, reproduce And become the perfect model Can you stand the test of time if life Is a vicious circle Without the mirror of another path So for those who believe in this life Spin right on the circle – must be round Every turn has its vortex You'll drown if nobody warns you And shows you another circle of life 24. Blind Pain Everything keeps getting worse The terror at home, the dread at school I mustn't count on much support I'm still locked out, it's up to me How to face the teasing and the pain Hate, one thing we have in common Play your game Beat me, hurt me A physical release for mental pain Don't make me explode in your way This is a chain of torture A line of pain No other way to show how you feel This is the rebel in her, the torment from him The absence of help, the mothers care Rage, it burns all around us Blind pain So abuse is only weakness It feels more like a cry of distress An act of incapacity Feel the threat Feel the oppressed ambience Of having no place to go No one who'll take care of my salvation This is a chain of torture A line of pain No other way to show how you feel This is the rebel in her, the torment from him The absence of help, the mother's care Here comes the finel episode of terror and pain Abuse and hope Here comes the fight between us all A fight between a love long gone I'm to blame, but it's their own blind pain (Mother) Now look where you and your selfish ambitions have gotten us! It's never been worse! You gotta work, work work, come back without even noticing me or that ignorant kid of yours! You only think about yourself. (Father) I only think about myself, it's me again? You self-centered bitch! You're the one complaining all the time, but when that kid freaks out, who's supposed to take care of her, huh?! Besides, it's not my child! Wasn't it ours, our little 'saviour' of a love we never had? A fucking... (Mother) Yeah, there is no 'us' anymore, darling! Ever since she was born and I was left at your apparment raising her, I think about all I ever dreamed of because of 'our' decisions! We both should have made compromises, but the only one who did was me! (Father) Oh, there you go again! You feel awfully sorry for yourself; why don't you take a look at my side of the story for once? (Mother) Ah, yeah sure, 'your side'... well, excuse the fuck out of me for being in your way! A child you never wanted, living in a smaller house than you've ever dreamed of, and all the while I'm getting old and ugly, right? You must really long for somebody young and fresh, or if this means already... (Father) Enough!! Don't you dare accuse me of being unfaithful! That's how you ruined my loyalty; I can't believe I once fell in love with a... (Mother) Oh, neither can I, you bastard! Neither can I! And loyal? I dind't know you're familiar with that word! (Father) There's a lot you don't know, a lot you'll never understand! We've lost contact, baby. (Mother) Oh yeah, really? Well, that doesn't seem to bother you. Why don't you just go on? Go, go! Drift off away on that little island of yours and don't forget to drown on your way to a better life!! (Father) Maybe I will, maybe I will! I'd rather drown than be locked up with such a freaed up bith and a freaky daughter! I can't believe we're still holding a conversation about something so stupid!! (Mother) Fine, go! Just GO!! Drown! I hope it'll be slow and painful! (Father) Shut your fucking mouth! (Mother) Asshole... Asshole! 25. Being Everyone Who am I at night when my eyes are closed tight? Who am I, and where; when eyes see far beyond? Every border, every dream? Every hidden memory? Every nightmare, truth or dare, who do I see now? Look at me! Tell me what you see Are we? Just being everyone? Where am I; tell me what should go, what should stay Where am I? Where am I? And where shall I go tonight? Every night a different theme Every time you're in a different dream Am I me there? What am I? Who will I be now? Look at me! Tell me what you see Are we? Just being everyone? Look at me! Tell me what you see Are we? Just being everyone? I cry, I fall I love, I hate I know many, though no face ever stays I breathe, I fly I kill, I die Though there's nothing that I know No one can recall where I have been or who I was Look at me! Tell me what you see Are we? Just being everyone? Look at me! Tell me what you see Are we? Just being everyone? Look at me! Tell me what you see It's me! Being everyone! 26. Face Your Demons Jack in a box and here I am Your favorite mirror and your only honest reflection, I'm your guide I am you deepest fear, the one you'll always hear I am the devil in disguise, I am your dreams I am the sneaky connection to your most devilish reflection The scary imagination of the real you I represent what you deny You're never scared, so why are you running away from the temptation of my words?

You just fear, you can only fear Face your demons So did you know that all your memories Color all you'll ever be in a dark and misty cloud that I am floating on I'm still the voice that speaks inside your head The demon under your bed I'm the one who haunts your soul with devilish lust to fright Face your demons Hear that inner voice It calls, it cries for you Just listen well I'm the one who'll tell terrifying tales Face your demons Hear that inner voice It calls, it cries for you Just listen well I'm the one who'll tell terrifying, scary, dreadful tales 27. Taste The Day If you don't see If you forget what you have Not just what you can get If you cannot embrace it, you will lose what gives you strength Holding on to life Fortune lies within You can never love if you are not in love with life itself If you cannot embrace that you will never find true strength Holding on to life Passion within! Oh, feel the day Can you remagine yourself? Oh, taste the day Will you remagine your life? Can you relish in your luck, can you? Or overcome your pain? Can you be happy? Oh, feel the day Can you remagine yourself? Oh, taste the day Will you remagine your life? 28. Boundaries Are Open I see clearly all my dreams (you can imagine your whole life) I know chance is always near (with a mind full of conceit) Make my own reality (do you even know the truth) Just imagine Boundries are open Cause you cannot control this (dreams keep slipping from my hands) My reality differs from yours (i must do just what i feel) The power of imagination is strong (keep trying, again and again) So we only try to imagine Will the force be so strong it will control one's mind? Will this power delude or widen the madness that renders blind? So the frontiers of our conceit Then will become indistinct to vanish in thin air Boundries are open But don't believe it's real So does faith have roots in imagination? Who is right in the grim and endless fight for revelation? I cannot tell what's right or wrong For we all dwell in imaginary borderland Boundries are open But don't believe it's real 29. Come Come join your inner wonderland A place of all you don't understand Come join this labyrinth deep within The place of all miracles of your mind Come join the magic, the power that you create Come be aware it's an illusion you have made Come join the flow that guides you through a restless mind Come join the flow that moves the night You've passed the gates now, the door to inner wonderland You've passed the gates made to create the borders of your dream Come enter further, do you dare?

Live & Learn I'll be climbing another high mountain I will climb and climb to see what lies far beyond all my restrictions A glimpse of a better me I'll be diving another deep ocean I will dive and dive to reach for what lies beyond my restrictions A deeper me I know many doors are waiting for keys in life Waiting for courage to learn what's kept hidden I'll be running another great distance I will run and run to know what lies far beyond all my restrictions To run into a faster me I'll be loving another great challenge I will love and love to feel what lies deep within my inner chambers Where's the key!?

Strong I see your pain, I see it grow slowly inside you You cannot control it The hurting's ruthless, you cannot win I see every smile you fake Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain to stand strong Day after day To be there for us, always To pretend there's nothing wrong How you feel or how it feels No words describe it Your body feels like a stranger We cannot stop it, we cannot win I see every smile you fake Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain to stand strong I see every smile you fake Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain to stand strong Every painful day I'll be there for you, always And together we will stand strong
