OVERDOSE LYRICS

1. Sweet Reality


Full of desire / Down misty streets
In a forgotten third world country
I walk while the city sleeps
On my screen / Pictures feed me
Cars and rich places / Nice and lonely chicks
But what I really see / Is a dirty misery
Ragged people live and die / A trashy fantasy
I wander round and round
Seeking my own promised dream
Then I found its trace on my deceiving TV
I turn it on again
Still tries to seduce me
Now I see beyond its lying screen

[Chorus:]
Oh sweet reality
You break my heart
You don't need to lie to me no more
Oh bitter reality
You destroy my mind
You cannot enslave my thoughts no more

My mind is on fire / For all I see
Our lives became a big show
When you're born you get your script
Hard working men / Fighting for their food
Earning meager wages / Following strange rules
But what they really have / Is a poor shack to live in
Filthy rags to wear / And rancid scraps to eat
I wander round and round
Seeking my lost promised dream
Then I found its trace on my deceiving TV
I turn it on again
Different worlds in front of me
Now I see beyond its lying screen

[Chorus]


2. Night Child


Running scared from a broken home
Looking for a place to hide
Walkin' away from a danger zone
Facing the wild side
How can you expect them to turn into men
The alleys and streets where they live
Are their only friends
Livin' on the streets is not a good way to grow
Standing in the shadows they're taught
All they need to know

[Chorus:]
Night child you rule the streets at night
And run away through the day
You know you can run
But you know you can't hide
From your own fate

A loaded machine gun in your hand
Is your toy as you play with crime
You challenge the powers of foolish men
And joke with the values of life
A blind justice send you to a prison cell
Now you have the chance to find out
What's a real hell
A dangerous hide with no way to return
The laws to survive are the main lesson
You have to learn

[Chorus (x2)]

How nice it would be
If only they could live in the safeness of a home
But crawling on the streets
Those little heads we see
So helpless and alone


3. White Clouds


I was walking down the streets one night
When a stranger came by my side
He said "Hey man, do you wanna get high"
I said "No way",
I said "No way ain't gonna buy your dirty mind"

There's madness on the streets
Evil souls, nasty creeps
The big ones are sitting on their thrones
In their billion dollar homes
They are blowing lives away

[Chorus:]
White clouds in the skies
Cracking our minds
People goin' down
All around
Fortune and fame
Can't hide the shame
Feed us with lies (White clouds)
Through the night

I was walking down the streets one day
When a man passed by my way
He said "Hey kid, this is men's decay
My son was found dead with a,
Yeah he was found dead with a needle in his face".

Like puppets on a string
Fooled minds, addicted dreams
We became pieces of a game
You loose they win the pain remains
Will we live for another day?

[Chorus]

They're blowing lives away
Will we live for another day?

[Chorus (x2)]


4. Pain


Lying in my room so quiet so cold
Trapping within my lonely mind
I hear the last sighs of a fading world
And feel the flames of anguish burnin' up my heart
I've lost the real me
Believing in men's sanity
Now I've found myself alone
Somebody save me
Before I'm gone

[Chorus:]
Down on my knees I'm falling
Deep in my soul
I hear a desperate calling
Life slips away from my hands
Day by day and I still can't understand
Cannot stand this lies
Cannot take the blame
All I can do is feel the pain

Strange things keep goin' on outside my door
Lord, I can't face this anymore
Everyday a starving child is born
Somewhere an angry crowd starts
Fighting a new war
Don't feel I'm part of this
Don't wanna be blamed for your sins

[Chorus]

Cannot reason why / It's driving me insane
All I can do is feel the pain

Maybe I was wrong
And the whole world was right
I should have closed my eyes from all this lie
I feel my time has come
I just don't wanna cry
The pain has caught me right deep inside
Cannot stand this lie
Cannot take the blame
All I can do is feel the pain


5. Your Way


When we are young
And comes the time for us
To choose a way
It's so hard it seems we are blind
Even thought we see the light of day
And the shadows of the night

[2nd Part:]
Don't care
If they point a finger on you
Stand tall
You're someone you're no fool
Just need to believe in you

[Chorus:]
Your way
Always try to do things your way
Your way
Just don't matter what they will say

Dreaming alone
You feel your heart has
Something to say
It holds the key that could
Unlock the door
And show you how to build your true fate
And the mission you've lived for

[2nd Part]
[Chorus]

My way
I've always try to do things
My way
Just don't matter what they will say

When we are wrong
And comes the time for us
To choose a way
It's so hard it seems

we are blind
Even thought we see the light of the day
And the shadows of the night

[2nd Part]


6. Strangers In Our Own Land


[Chorus:]
Raising our hands
We dance for our Gods
And say
An old prayer
Crying once again
Still we are strangers in our own land

One day
You crossed the blue water
Coming from nowhere
From distant lands
Saying words to me so strange
We thought you were friends

The white man came
Brought us pain
With anger in their hearts
Spreading fear
Blood and tears
Tearin' our souls apart

[Chorus]

We ran away
Hiding from your big weapons
Trying to escape
It was too late
We were too sick and tired
Almost dying

White man lied
My people cried
We could hear the deadly sounds
Invaded lands
Greedy hands
Rotting our sacred ground

[Chorus]

Today the same tale is still goin' on
They said they'd take our land away
So it's done
But now my heart is buried in my land
I'm running through the mountains
I'm riding on the wind

[Chorus (x2)]


7. Winds Of Change


From western blue skies
Came this morning breeze
A whisper of the new age
Bringing waves of peace
In this warm dawn we awake
We're children
Of the new earth
Another gone century
Another brave new world

We are changing deep inside
Feeling freedom by our side

[Chorus:]
And winds of change
Came through the night
Into the day
Into a brighter time
And years of change
Are passing by
A better place to live for you and I

The red bear has awaken
From a long an' silent sleep
Leading a revolution
Through the cold an' lonely east
No shameful walls around us
No more forgotten lands
The chains are being broken
No white shackles on black hands

So many roads so many miles
Simply to claim our human rights

[Chorus]


8. A Great Dream


[Instrumental]
