The Best Kept Secret

The view outside
The best kept secret
No one can reach it
No one believes
It's in the air
A chance to run now
So here I come now
It's time to leave

Who can remember just who is the leader
A soft spoken showman, accepted, encouraged
While under the cities the shuffle of money is speaking
The power of choice is the power of reason
The power of voice is the key to the world
So now just count the times that the chill in their words
Leaves you freezing

Tell me you're safe
That I'm not dreaming
No night thoughts screaming
No face in the rain
For the first time
The view is clearing
No longer fearing
The shadow of pain

A certain smile conceals the highest card
Beyond this place the rains are falling hard

Someone somewhere
The voice you never hear
Salvation ringing clear
Always ahead
Please help me now
To see the blazing light
The stars return tonight
Burning so red

Who can remember just who is the leader
A soft spoken showman, accepted, encouraged
While under the cities the shuffle of money is speaking
The power of choice is the power of reason
The power of voice is the key to the world
So now just count the times that the chill in their words
Leaves you freezing

A certain smile conceals the highest card
Beyond this place the rains are falling hard
Falling hard
Falling hard

Five Minutes To Midnight

Break or be broken
A sensitive target
A thirty day boy in
A twenty day city

Nothing is easy
You know their methods
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Just for a moment
That beats creation
Waiting for the flash to come

A large map of nowhere
A statue of paper
Nothing can stop them
They're all white and spiteful

It's not important
Use any language
Before it gets too late
Call for a doctor

For hours and hours
They built us a tower
You know how men are
We fell to the power
Stay with the money
'Til five to midnight's past

Twenty years later
There's someone to see you
Your prayers are answered
He's saying something

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

This happy solution
Wouldn't it rock you?
The choice of a weapon
The first and the last sword
Waiting for the flash to come

It's not important
Use any language
Before it gets too late
Call for a doctor
Waiting for the heat to come

You know how men are
How men are, how men are

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

Sunset Now

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 strenght 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)

This Is Mine

No more wasting time
Synchronize
Tell them this is mine

Don't
Walk the other way
Tell me you will stay
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?

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

The Fuse

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

Shame Is On The Rocks

Guess who's walking in your tracks
(Don't look back)
Forcing you to re-enact
(Making contat)

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

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

Flamedown

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 surrrender
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)

Reputation

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

And That's No Lie

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?

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

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

How was I to know?
So discreet, no-one speaks
Take the word from here
If you play you've got to pray

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
