Forgive Me Quickly
If I showed you what you don't know,
Would I suffer...
If I listened to your life of misfortune?
If I showed you what you don't know,
Would you show me what I thought I knew?
If I showed you what you don't know,
Would I suffer...
If I listened to your life of misfortune?
Would I stop myself and realize...
Your life aint easy breezy.
Would you find it in your mind you'd be assessing me?
Or would you find it in your mind the need to forgive me,
Quickly!
Would I stop myself and realize...
Your life aint easy breezy.
Would you find it in your mind you'd be assessing me?
Or would you find it in your mind the need to forgive me,
Quickly!
Forgive me quickly!
Would you find it in your mind the need to forgive me,
Quickly!
Forgive me quickly!
Would you find it in your mind,
The need...
To forgive me,
Quickly!
Would you find it in your mind you'd be assessing me?
Or would you find it in your mind the need to forgive me,
Quickly!
Forgive me quickly!
Would you find it in your mind the need to forgive me,
Quickly!
Forgive me quickly!
Would you find it in your mind,
The need...
To forgive me,
Quickly!

Resistancia!
They walk over you
As if you werent there
Equality does not exist
In our cold life since...
Chorus:
They dont know who you are
They dont care
They dont see that we are
Everywhere
Nation under fire
And they just sit back
They dont seem to realise
That we will fight back
Repeat chorus
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of sight
Out of mind
They walk all over you.
Look into their eyes.
Make them see their foes.
Be the individual
To strike the fatal blow.
Repeat chorus
Out of sight.
Out of mind.
Out of sight.
Out of mind. (x3)

Cover Up for Mlady lucianne
.
Softly, silently snow flakes fall.
Quickly, quietly covers all
the litter mankind leaves behind.
Now out of sight and out of mind.
A pristine world of virgin white
clearly presented to our sight.
We can forget what lies below,
the filth and grime beneath the snow.
No other creature fouls its nest
but mankind show s no interest
in keeping his environment
clean. His lack of care is evident
What men discard so carelessly?
The snow conceals so carefully.

Psychopath
Slowly...fall the tears on me!
Slowly...leave the mercy out!
Trembling skin/ Sweating body
Dying groan/ Twisted mind!
Quickly...opening her legs
Quickly...rise high the knife!
Trembling skin/ Sweating body
Dying groan/ Twisted mind!
Psychopath!
Quickly... bleeding on the mist
Quickly...butchering her!
Slowly...coming in her face
Slowly...leave the mercy out!
Trembling skin/ Sweating body
Dying groan/ Twisted mind!
Psychopath!

Love At First Sight
See the lovers all gone crazy
Looking for romance it seems
Many sleepless nights will follow
Some may lose but some succeed
Love at first sight
What they want is...
Love at first sight
Make a play of lust intention
Only just one thing in mind
Make a slip could be forever
Wedding bells, the shotgun kind
Love at first sight
What they want is...
Love at first sight
Mouse takes the bait
So soon as he leaves his seat
Theres no escape, very soon their eyes will meet
Love at first sight etc.
Take your partner to surrender
Then your misdemeanours done
Sacrifice of maidenhood
But little boys must have their fun
Love at first sight.

The Eye of Beauty
Krishna passed that mountain many times;
and yet his followers observed that day
that all his mind was filled with fresh delight
as if he'd never walked, nor seen, that way;
the beauty of the mountain ever new,
the moment of its sight, the world reborn;
the mind surprised by what it always knew:
the beauty past all beauty's name and form.
This is true beauty, in ourself revealed:
a sight that's ever fresh, yet ever known;
which eye sees pure, yet mind too oft conceals:
God's unity, in beauty seen; all, One;
The moment's grace of beauty, ours all day;
from outward eye the sight of inward Way.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight
Buddy, tip your bottle back
Climb aboard the bus
Join your brothers in the band
If you aint bombed in burmingham
Then you aint one of us
We dont really give a damn
London is a hundred miles a-waitin where were at
And a thousand years behind
Splitting from a sorry gig that left us feelin flat
Out of sight and out of mind
Cruisin through the countryside well never see again
Aint it lonesome out tonight?
Weve been on that road now since I cant remember when
Out of mind and out of sight
Buddy tip your bottle back and climb aboard the bus
Join your brothers in the band
If you aint bombed in burmingham then you aint one of us
We dont really give a damn
Yeah, I been evrywhere and I seen evrything there is
But I never saw the light
Scared to death of dyin so I do my best to live
Out of mind and out of sight
Knowin no one nowheres gonna miss us when were gone
Lets keep drinkin til were blind
Evrybodys sleepin and Im stuck inside a song
Outta sight and outta line
Someday when its over and its time to settle down
And weve left it all behind
We can sit and wonder how we ever got around
Out of sight and out of mind
Out of sight and out of mind

Love Comes Quickly
Sooner or later, this happens to everyone
To everyone
You can live your life lonely
Heavy as stone
Live your life learning
And working alone
Say this is all you want
But I dont believe that its true
cause when you least expect it
Waiting round the corner for you
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
You can live a life of luxury
If thats what you want
Taste forbidden pleasures
Whatever you want
You can fly away to the end of the world
But where does it get you to?
cause just when you least expect it
Just what you least expect
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
I know it sounds ridiculous, but speaking from experience
It may seem romantic, and thats no defense
Love will always get to you
Sooner or later, sooner or later, this happens to everyone
To everyone
You can fly away to the end of the world
But where does it get you?
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
(oooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You cant stop falling (ooh ooh)

Out Of Mind
I've been up for days
And i feel like a menagerie
I'm scratching 'til i bleed
And i keep on seeing
Imaginary lemurs
In the street
In the middle of the day
But as long as i can breathe
Then i know i'll be ok
I'll be alright
I'm out of mind
I'm out of sight
I'm out of sight
I've been up for days
And i feel like a laboratory rat
Inside a maze
And i reel in the monotony of
Screaming
At the moon
In the middle of the day
But as long as i can see it
Then i know i'll be ok
I'll be fine
I'm out of sight
I'm completely out of mind
Completely out of mind
Ok
Alright
Come and watch me shake tonight
Mouth wide
Soft and bright
Bite my hand and scream
Ok
Alright
Come and watch me break tonight
Push deep
Out of sight
Bite my hand and hold on tight...

Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind
I remember your goodbye
And the late december sky
Seems so long ago
You were standing on the quay
And you blew a kiss to me
I was sad to go
The ship began to pull away
Then I heard a stranger say
Its sad to see true lovers part
cause sometimes lovers feel a change of heart
Out of sight and out of mind
Well the strangers words came true
And the prophecy went through
I knew it would change my world
cause when I called your home
A whispered conversation
I overheard
I asked you what was going on
You said that Id been gone too long
And the rain that fell in west berlin
Was nothing like the rain that fell within
Out of sight and out of mind
Oh, regine
Here am i
So far away
Out of sight, out of mind
Love has gone
But I will shine
Day after day
I will take what love I find
So I made some other plans
Took my life in these two hands
And I know I wont turn around
Though I often see your face
When Im in a crowded place
It doesnt get me down
I met a girl with smiling eyes
Full of love and worldly wise
She told me she knows what to do
To help me put the memories of you
Out of sight and out of mind

Out Of Sight
I dont wanna hear you talk
And I dont wanna go for walks
But I just wanna lay you flat
Well you think youre so good at that
Ive got no time for your sad eyes
I dont care if you say good-bye
I dont really think that I want
Anything to do with your
Out of sight
Out of mind
The radio continues round me
Blending faces glaring at me
How was I to telephone
Crawl away to end it all
Spiral staircase leads to nowhere
I an take you somewhere (who cares)
Dee-dees crazy as a model
Id break your heart if Id got time
Out of sight
Out of mind
I hate you all I hate you all
Youre breaking down my message wall
Out of sight
Out of mind

How much we loved each other and we thought [Cât ne iubeam, şi cum credeam odată]
How much we loved each other and we thought
That our sincere affection would endure,
That what we had in mind were notions pure
About that world perpetual we sought!
Time and again, my wish to hold you tight
Against my chest, more ardent was and great,
And on my heart it put a heavy weight:
The day I die... and tears obscured your sight...
Today, it's just a tale, not even sore,
Because all things came quickly to an end;
There's not a trace of what it was before,
So many vain illusions, my dear friend!
A sign, a kerchief waving at the door.
And then we in forgetfulness descend.

Crossroads (Stream XVII)
Here at the crossroads
After cruel and cross words
Such weighty thoughts
Weigh on my mind.
Being weighed in the balance,
As I wade through the morass
Of my cluttered mind.
No star crossed lovers we
Just cross, unhappy.
When did we lose sight
Slip past each other
Where did we slip up
Looking back,
Life flashed by
Like a hurtling train
Gone too quickly.
Some where we lost each other,
Between desire and indifference.
So accustomed to each other
We wear our shackles lightly.
Yet we fear a future alone.
Lost souls we grope in the dark
Trying to find our way back.
Now we stand at the juncture;
The splitting of the ways
Not knowing which path to take.
Undecided whether we will go together
Weathering the storm.
Or split apart.
Severed to go our separate ways.

Soul-Searching
Thoughts run like blank pages through my mind
I search desperately, but there is nothing to be found
I am overflowing with what shoud be behind
It's rising so quickly I feel I've already drowned
I avoid my reflection because I hate what I see
I cannot come to terms with who I am
I feel like I've lost my own identity
I'm missing out on perfection by one gram
My dreams are twisted and haunt me all day
I become confused, dazed, jaded, and cold
The line between fact and fiction quickly frays
I am left with nothing to hold

Insecurity
We walk a tightrope most of our life
very much afraid of the fall.
We step carefully one foot after the other
and are not sure-footed at all.
We're afraid to look down
And we fear the height
One false move and our security
fades quickly from our sight.
Insecurity builds up in our mind
and starts its dangerous attack.
We become afraid of what we must face
and know we can't turn back.
Some can overcome this situation
And leave the tightrope behind.
But most will walk that tightrope
And what is it they will find?
Insecurity.
