ROLAND GRAPOW LYRICS

1. Prelude No. 1/presto


[Instrumental]


2. The Winner


We all have to climb a ladder
Don't use the one-way street to hell
Friends deceive without cold sweat
Tell me what we're fighting for

Kicking chumbs like wretched sinners
Praise ourselves to the highest point
God said he would send the messiah
But Satan closed the door

No more compromise, we pay the price
Make everything undone
We're ready for sacrifice

[Chorus:]
Reach out your hand, you'll be the winner
Let's try to catch the caravan of lies
If you stay so blind, you'll be the sinner
We have to change to be born again

Like a sniper fire of demons
When we're merging our souls
We shed the blood of our saviour
Blind leading the blind

Here we stand as reborn brothers
No more chasing our tails
Try to find the kingdom of perception
But no one sees the sign

No more disguise, let's realise
Let's go against the grain and try to optimise


3. No More Disguise


They tell me what's wrong and what's right
They tell me to stop and to hide
They know everything better than me
Even much better than me

They think they're so clever and smart
They don't care to break my heart
They'd better take one last look before I disappear

[Chorus:]
I like to fly, higher and higher
No more disguise, escape from hellfire
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
I'll never forget what you've done (to me)

They injure my passion and pride
Which passes on painful delight
The trail I tread left or right
Too faraway from their own way

Why can't you give me a chance?
No reason to misjudge my competence
The goal which I personally strive for
Wouldn't impress you at all


4. Show Me The Way


I know the future will become past
But I will give my very best
To make my life really strong
Ain't no doubt tomorrow has come

[Chorus:]
Lord, tell me how
Which way I have to go
An answer to my prayers
Before I come home to you

Who knows what tomorrow will bring
Maybe some answers, it's all in the asking
Which path the right one's to go


5. I Remember


Through the mists of eternity
I have found you again
The passion in your eyes brought back the memories
Of the daybreak of our time
I had never lost my hope
Longing makes me crazy
I missed you really so much that I almost despaired

Previous times gave us a clue
To find a pact for our love
Now we're not separate anymore
That's what I always wished before

[Chorus:]
I remember that first time
Green emerald eyes and the sweetest smile
You are the colour of my life
I pray I'll never lose you again
Until my final end

We found our way through
Green fields in summer days
And along stony paths in winter's cold
When the shadows are closing in
I showed you how to fly
No one can trim our wings
Or the angels will forever cry

And when you whisper my name
I wish you would never stop
There's no money in the world
That can buy me your precious love


6. Dedicated To...?


[Instumental]


7. Searching For Solutions


We won't see horizons
Behind the wall of doom
Won't find any guidance
Much too late for illusions

Everything we did with carelessness
Pollution is what we pass on

[Chorus:]
Don't lay your heads deep down in the ashes
Or float in the stream of vagueness
Cause we can't hold on, hold on any longer
Or else mankind must die, there'll be no goodbyes

Searching for solutions
See the visions clear
Disaster is heading our way
Oh we just don't really care

Let stare problems right in the eyes
Our globe needs more than help

We're all guilty: Because of pollusion
Acid rain, green-house effect, atomic-tests
We're not immortal
We don't need the lies of politicansh


8. Strange Friend


I saw strange friends dying in vain
Dressed in blood red robes
Only id-tags will remain
Nobody asks why they fought

Now I'm standing here not alone
In the middle of the battlefeild
The smell of blood still in my nose
But my eyes can't see enemies

It's hard to understand
Why do we kill each other, friend
When I look into your eyes I see myself and cry

[Chorus:]
Why do our children cry for us
When we children kill
And women rape, without any hate
Cause they tell us: "Dig your grave"
He softly whispers

They tells us this war is right
We must kill each other on this night
Slaughter friends like animals
There is no way back from hell

It still angers me when they tell us
We're the only who have that right
Is it luck, a chance or fate
That we stand here still alive

It's hard to understand
Why should I shoot you, friend
When I look into your eyes I see myself and cry


9. Bread Of Charity


In your life was no tenderness, oh no
Never a sunrise without fear
Nasty violence is your breakfast
And death will be your holy communion
You learned to fight, you learned to kill
But no one showed you how to cry

[Chorus:]
Taste the bread of charity
Between hell and poverty
Which he's fighting through

Where did you come from, where do you wanna go?
You brought diaster wherever you went

Now you're gambling with the law
But you don't care anymore
Where have you hidden your soul?
Cause no one can help you anymore


10. The Four Seasons Of Life


I gaze into a crystal ball, see an old man cry
Behind misty, tears in his eyes
He's watching 80 years gone by
No much left, his time is ticking

[Chorus:]
The four seasons of life
Mystic hands guiding through dark and light
An adventure you can't deny
As the sun melts the ice
The four seasons of life

The Spring of life was our birth
You can't grow up on your own
Now showed how to go,
Learn from experience very slow

Summer has come
Live your life on the road
The rules aren't really clear
Learn to fight for your right, first love is very near
Young and wild, in best condition
But you don't have a clue what's left or right

The soft dying Autumn touches everyone
Life can be like a thunderstorm
Somebody won't see the rainbow
Sun and mists, warm and cold, good and bad
Love and hate, black and white, laugh and cry
Give and take, peace and war, live and die

Winter's coldness is near at hand
Hear voices loud and clear, I look into my glass and
See my wasting skin and wish it had come to pass my
Heart had shrunk as thin!
But it doesn't and my body faces away

The fifth season brings the darkness
The crystal ball says, take your chace, 'cause the end is near
It's a long way back to earth
Now it's time to lend a hand to life, don't waste life,
Don't think twice
The four seasons of life


11. Finale De Souvenir


[Instrumental]


12. Release Your Mask


[Japanese bonus track]

I wanna feel when your time is over
I won't see tears in your soul
You can't accept there are different ways
You're too proud to cry

Yeah, he thinks he's so clever
But I know he's a mean guy
Words of wisdom but nothing said
Stay on your soil!

[Chorus:]
All I want, let it go
Or you'll be stricken bound
You can run and you can hide
Break away

Surrender your ego, release your mask
Don't tell me lies when the truth is clear
You'd better watch you don't loose face
Hold it right there

Break away

You've been spinning lies too many times
Why don't you give it a rest
You don't have to find another reason
Your lies I see in your eyes

You close the door and keep the world outside
You don't mind at all
If there's a God or any kind of justice
Just turn yourself and drop your blinder
