TUNES FOR THE TAKIN' - UNKNOWN (Lyrics written by Catherine Klier and Klaus Michel) 1. Everybody Everybody sees what I'm looking at Everybody knows where I'm coming from And you don't know If I love you It's always the same, the same way we leave Is anybody here who knows the same rules in life ? Who knows how I feel now How I can`t live like this And everybody knows what's going on behind these walls And nobody, nobody does a thing I hate to see the days are flowing away And I hate to see doing this to you ! Everybody is sitting around and laughing Everybody is sitting around and gaping at Gaping at the things I say honest no more Is this everything that life offers to me ? But tomorrow comes and you are back Tomorrow comes and a new hope is rising Nothing is like it was One time it's you, one time it's me And that is bearable, is it for you Be the dog they own but don't bite Don't shout at me Don't run away Help me breaking, These chains of doubt These chains of fear Be just yourself 2. She's gone Countin' the days We waited for you it seems The rain is pourin' down on me all the time Hours passin' by Still these pictures Risin' up in my head Like a never, neverending movie But this story's got no ending And it starts again and again And stops at the same scene We need to be stronger To understand - She's gone Why aren't you that little pretty thing, you ought to be ? Refr.: She's gone Please come around And hit me If it is the only way to talk Without any word Without any sign She left that house Maybe there was no need To put things right She's gone ... 3. Queen of ... You tumble through the dawn While everything you ever built Tumbles down It's early in the morning You've got to find the way back on your own Bones and muscles are aching From the last night But less than it hurts deep inside That pretty dress you wore is torn Do you think it's allright if Somebody steals your pride ? Do you think it's allright if confidence is out of sight ? Do you think it's allright if somebody steals your pride ? Do you think it's allright while everything you ever built Tumbles down When you turn to me You're hiding behind a strange masquerade When you turn to me All I can find is faded identity Ooh - You gotta go on dancing Ooh - You gotta go on dancing now Do you think it's allright, you gotta go on dancing 4. Unknown Peacefully the iron crosses lean against those trees In the warm and soothing beams of the evening sun I can feel What is on the other side of the mirror ? My fingertips are burning while put them onto that surface I can read the letters It's quite a long time ago Where are they now ? I need to know Their shadows passing all the time but don't speak I'm walking through this field I'm happy that I got a chance to give them a place in my memories It's quite a long time ago Where are they now ? I can hear them whispering secrets under my feet While I`m walking over graveyards Sleeping - Dreaming - Waiting Silent endlessness And I want to know Who's sleeping there ? It's quite a long time ago Where are they now ? I need to know Their shadows passing all the time but don't speak I'm walking through this field I'm happy that I got a chance to give them a place in my memories It's quite a long time ago Where are they now, where are they now I'm walking through this field I'm happy that 5. Leaving the path Hi, you said, how are you ? I've missed that It's been a long time ago that you've touched my skin And now I feel how sweet life can be I try to remember why you've been hiding away Uh I wished I wasn't tired that day And I wanted you to wake me This nightmare within a neverlasting autumn This nightmare full of waves Covering the strand Tumbleing, drinking, a furious storm I was twaddeling about urgent solutions About things that have to change soon I switched you off like the light of life You didn't move avoiding the clouds breaking Down on me Not leaving the path Leaving the path ... 6. You're not askin' I left my friends Just to get to you You covered your face To be unknown I'm not mournin' And I'm not crying We're just children playing a game You're not asking about it You're not asking about it What else can I do ? Pay the price I'll never fall in love again Baby, spring is out of reach Just talk - talk to me You're not asking about it You're not asking about it You're not asking 7. Who killed the angel ? Eyes gazing into the dark Searchin' for an answer Is anybody here who can tell us why ? Why this happened ? `Cause it's so bad - to see her like this I don't know what you're thinking behind those mirrors If you have a conscience Does it hurt ? Bright eyes Happiness - before you shattered this Somewhere - Out there We'll find her peace When we found you When we found you Who killed the angel And broke her wings Who and why ? Who killed the angel We need to know - to let her rest in peace To bring her back sweet dreams You stole her breath and you stole her eyes You took her voice and you snatched her smile Who killed the angel And broke her wings Who and why ? Who killed the angel We need to know - to let her rest in peace To bring her back sweet dreams Rest in peace! 8. Wrong planet Ich atme im luftleeren Raum Tief zieh´ ich das Nichts in meine Lungen ein Und wie beim guten Zug am Joint Fühl' ich es in meinen Adern brodeln Aus den Augen, aus dem Sinn Soll ich das so hinnehmen ? Was ist Erinnerung ? Was ist Erinnerung ? Alles andere bleibt draußen Klinisch rein, so lieben wir es doch, oder nicht ? So steril ist es um mich herum Und ich lass' Euch vor der Tür steh'n ALLES ANDERE BLEIBT DRAUSSEN - ALLES/ALLES RAUS - ALLES RAUS ALLES ANDERE BLEIBT DRAUSSEN - ALLES/ALLES RAUS - ALLES RAUS In Wirklichkeit sind alle krank Die Ihre Erinnerung nicht zulassen Den Tribut, den wir zollen, zollen wir uns nur selbst Und jetzt und hier spreng' ich Eure Welt Fall' aus Eurem Rahmen - in meinen rein Der Blick 'gen Horizont und doch nicht nur geradeaus, Wenn es sovieles auf der Strecke zu erleben gibt Ich habe keine Angst zu genießen Ich habe keine Angst zu genießen Und so atme ich im luftleeren Raum (Raum, Raum, Raum, Raum...) Ihr laßt keinen Platz für Eskaparden Rettet die Erinnerung Ihr laßt keinen Platz für Eskaparden Rettet die Erinnerung Ihr laßt keinen Platz für Eskaparden Rettet die Erinnerung Für mich ... Father - it seems - You dropped me on the wrong planet 9. Invisible Hope you're not angry anymore Hope you're tears have run dry I want to let you know that I'm still exsisting Right here at your side Maybe it's another dimension and you can't touch What you used to touch But I'm watching your steps Almost each step you make Don't stop Don't turn around I'am the invisible Who follows you And after all There is sense in everything he does We can't change what he Prepared for you and me Don't stop Don't turn around I'm the invisible Who follows you We can't change What he prepared for you and me Don't stop Don't turn around I'm the invisible Who follows you 10. Surrender Words destroy What the moment's got to say Use your senses Walk over the burnin' bridge The sweetest joy You can achieve - don't be afraid The sweetest joy tastes good Go on - searchin' - find me - waitin' here Strange emotions Take you where you've never been Strong devotion Takes you See it sparklin' See it sparklin' in the dark Catch the flame before it dies away On the other side of life Sweet surrender is waitin' for you Guess you never know - what you could miss On the other side of life Sweet surrender is waitin' for you Guess you never know - what you could miss Wait a moment ! Turn around and think twice: Have you seen me once before ? Oh, don't ignore me There's something more important than this Catch the flame before it dies away On the other side of life Sweet surrender' s waiting for you Guess you never know - what you could miss On the other side of life Sweet surrender' s waiting for you Guess you never know - what you could miss Sweet surrender 11. Surrender session (Instrumental) 12. Medusa I got blindfold to protect myself But I got a great sense of touch So I'm crawling sometimes on my knees And anything could stop me now Here on my way Medusa, Medusa Up to you - I'm on my way Up to you - my only aim Up to you - I'm on my way Up to you - my only aim I can feel her burning eyes behind When she trys to catch me But I can't see her For I am blind So she won't get me and I defeat her Smelling her hellish breath And I'm taking in a circle of fire But I won't become a stone When she cuts the flesh from the bone Up to you - I'm on my way Up to you - my only aim Up to you - I'm on my way Up to you - my only aim 13. Dead end I walk into This room Darkness surrounds me I take A look around I have to Switch the light on It's a one-way street And there's no turning back You're haunting me And then you disappear Once there was Innocence I can't remember How she looked like It's a one-way street And there's no turning back You're haunting me And then you disappear The tide is growing I forgot my name And the waves take me Far away Watching myself disappear Disappear 14.
