Альбом Heaven 17

Break or be brokenA sensitive targetA thirty day boy inA twenty day city
Nothing is easyYou know their methods(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)Just for a momentThat beats creationWaiting for the flash to come
A large map of nowhereA statue of paperNothing can stop themThey're all white and spiteful
It's not important
Use any languageBefore it gets too late
Call for a doctor
For hours and hoursThey built us a towerYou know how men areWe fell to the powerStay with the money'Til five to midnight's past
Twenty years laterThere's someone to see youYour prayers are answeredHe's saying something
Do you know something?
I don't remember
Hot as a furnaceWing to wing contact
This happy solutionWouldn't it rock you?The choice of a weaponThe first and the last wordWaiting for the flash to come
It's not importantUse any languageBefore it gets too lateCall for a doctorWaiting for the heat to come
You know how men areHow men are, how men are

Do you know something?I don't remember
Hot as a furnaceWing to wing contact

Sun crazed in our room
It was an endless afternoon
It seemed that we were so immune
The nights were stronger and longer
I fell on my pillow saying
"Tell the world that lucky's calling

Gold dust falling
Here in Action Town"

Sunset now
Sunset now
Sunset now
Sunset now

Blade flew into town
In time to watch the sun go down

He said the new prince must be found

The message shattered our windows
We know it was over, saying

"Tell the boys that we're not handing

Over any part

Of Action Town"


Sunset now

Sunset now
Sunset now now! now!

Pay out, run out, work out, die out
Action Town (Action Town)
If you have the name
Then you win the game
In Action Town (Action Town)
Bang bang you're dead

It's raining bread

Sunset now

Now that we have gone
Do we have strength to carry on
It seems like all our sun has shone
It seems our dice are as cold as ice

But something in my heart keeps saying
Tell the world that lucky's coming

Lines are humming
Here comes Action Town"

Sunset now (to fade)

No more wasting time
Synchronize

Tell them this is mine

Don't
Walk the other way
Tell me you will stay
Just give me one more day
So give up, I'm going on
If you stop, It won't change
One of us has lost the feeling
Which of us is not believing now?

You can have it all
I don't need it
Tell them this is mine
Wanting is no crime
Happens all the time
When it gets you down
Rise and leave it
Tell them this is mine
Push away the stone
We are not alone

Look into my eyes
And together we will rise
Above all we've seen
We will realize
Synchronize

Tell them this is mine
Wanting is no crime
Happens all the time

Hold
Touch this hand of mine
Come away and find
What we left behind
So move up, we're going on
To the top, we'll take it
One by one we've got the feeling
Which of us is not believing now?

You can have it all
I don't need it
Tell them this is mine
Wanting is no crime
Happens all the time
When it gets you down
Rise and leave it
Tell them this is mine

I wish I'd never heard the news
(Never had a good day)
Baby wants a pair of shoes
(How'm I gonna repay?)
A thousand fingers touch my heart

I need so much
Blue Force is tearing me apart

No time for might have been
You're on the winning team
No time to choose
It's time to light the fuse

I know there's nothing I can do
(Don't let it freeze you)
The age of miracles is through
(They're never gonna please you)

The iceman's back, he treats the crowds

And ice is free
Blue force is pouring from the clouds

Tonight could be the night
We'll walk into the cool light
Though I'll not see you again

Light the fuse now!

They say the best's too good for you
Your head's on fire)
That golden letdown can't be true
(Push push a little higher)
But when they say that we can't win

And you agree
Blue force will never fight for sin

I heard a voice tonight

Calling by satellite
'Thousands are right
And some will light the fuse"

No time for might have been
You're on the winning team

No time to choose
It's time to light the fuse

I heard a voice tonight

Calling by satellite
'Thousands are right
And some will light the fuse"

No time for might have been
You're on the winning team

No time to choose
It's time to light the fuse

Guess who's walking in your tracks

(Don't look back)
Forcing you to re-enact

(Making contact)


No-one's safe when
Shame is on the rocks
There's no faith when
Shame is on the rocks

Bow your head, you'll hear his call

(Hear his call)
Such a shame, for one so tall

(Instant recall)

No-one walks when
Shame is on the rocks
There's no talk when
Shame is on the rocks

Slower than the second coming
It will happen all the same
Knowing why the spirit's broken

It's a shame

Think before you say a word

(Someone heard)
Go before you are disturbed
(Days are numbered)

Lose your aim when
Shame is on the rocks

Miss the train when
Shame is on the rocks

Shame is the one with power in his hand
There he waits, without a plan
But no-one came, it's such a...

Shame is the same for you and you and you
There are no chosen few
Who will remain? It's such a...

The skin I'm in
It's hard to see, I know

This skin I'm in

We're never free

Don't you agree?

Yet another age has passed
We all must look away
From the way we are today
We must look away


On every fate
Opening eyes will see

Who does not cry?

This skin I'm in

No-one can hide

How's the world been leaving you?
The future came too late
For the ones who cannot wait

It will come too late

This skin I'm in
Down to the bone, our blood

Fit for a king

It's no surprise

There's no disguise

Maybe all we need is time
To wipe away the tears
We let fall throughout the years
You must hide your tears

Within this skin
Until the end we grow

And as we sing
We have no more to show
Now walk and say nothing

Underneath the bridge

The glowing streets
Light up the heavy sky
Out of nowhere
I return to you
Even as we meet
This curious girl
Fell back to sleep
This time for keeps
But I won't surrender

Find some way
I think she's going to pay


On that day I knew
(Cold heart, flamedown)

It was me and you
Burn out, flamedown)

Under burning sky
Look up, flamedown)

You shall carry me

Along the streets
Awake and paralysed

Take the slow lane
We'll enjoy the view

As we move along

The girl will sing

This curious song
And she won't speak
But she will remember

What's ahead
And what is left unsaid

Caught up in the heat
Burn out, flamedown)
Out on judgement street
(Watch out, flamedown)

I see no way out
(Hold out, flamedown)
I can hear you shout
(Move out, flamedown)

Chorus 3:
Hold on don't give in
Stay out, flamedown)

To the flame within
(Burn out, flamedown)

Want you to agree
(No doubt, flamedown)
When you talk to me
(Shout out, flamedown)

I don't have a reputation
Falling faster all the time
Help me make my reputation
I'll help yours if you'll help mine
My clothes are too big for my body
My body's too big for my mind
I don't like humiliation
I can change my clothes
But I don't think I'll change my mind

Hey look! I just bought a beach house
So bring all your friends along
I don't need an explanation
Boss says I must leave right now
Take the night plane to Vermont

Here I go, I'm swinging low
Move out of my way

Come and take a look at what I've found
Here I am, I've got a plan

Don't walk away
My reputation follows me around

Once there was a girl in New York
Wonder where that girl has gone
She was full of adulation

I tried to phone her
Strange the number turns out wrong

I've got all I ever wanted

But what I've got, no-one wants to share
They turned down my application
Please won't you let me in
Seems like no-one ever cares

But when the fire goes out
The dark starts moving in
And that's the truth
Right now you're on the stand
And I feel like the judge
Who needs the proof?
The slaves of truth
It was on every face in town
But I would not understand
Waiting for the news
Will it ever come my way?
(Repeat)
I won't be beat, not in a thousand years
I'll never lose, if I can prove you're not the one
Just leave me now, you're making my blood run cold
The word is out, so go, your feet won't touch the ground
Now that she has gone
I've got to shake the pain, act like a man
The sweetness that's inside
Will slowly die away
(Repeat)
(Repeat)
Who do you think you are? You're making a fool of me
Make no mistake, this is no fake, this is the end
Just shut your mouth, make room for someone new
So guess who's back, it's happy Jack, and that's no lie
(Repeat)
How was I to know?
So discreet, no-one speaks
Take the word from here
If you play you've got to pray
(Repeat)
(Repeat)
Who do you think you are? You're making a fool of me
Make no mistake, this is no fake, this is the end
I won't be beat, not in a thousand years
Just leave me now, you make my blood run cold
The word is, the word is out
