't spell me wrong
What is going on?

Tell me now...
What is seen from my hand?
I know what is true
Nothing's really new

Why don't we leave this old town?
A new world waits to be seen
Give me a reason to stay
I'm not afraid to live...

Tell me now...
All my will and destiny
Won't erase my hand
It won't change my plans

Tell me now...
What could be the best for me?
It's always been the same
I'm running like a train

I don't want to go home
I'm feeling like a ghost
I'm falling all apart
Could you please fix my heart?

Why don't we leave this old town?
A new world waits to be seen
Give me a reason to stay
I'm not afraid to live

Here we go...
No one said it was easy
I'm on my feet again
A ticket in my hand
Here we go...


2. Moonbeam Rider

Ride
Ride on
Ride the sunrise
To higher ground

Ride
Ride on
Ride the hog high
You're glory bound

Ride
Ride on
There is no time
You're moving on

Ride
Ride on
There is a sign
Another town

Bad muckin' luck and misery
All is forgotten memories
Trouble and time left way behind
Trouble and time, a thousand crimes
And all the things you will regret
And all the things you can't forget
There's no reason to be ashamed
For your many ill-gotten gains

And the Moonbeam shines on the Chrome

Ride
Ride on
Don't you realize
What's going on

Ride
Ride on
The road to the stars
You're riding on

Did you ever live in this world?
Were you ever within your world?
Ride on and on until you're gone
Do you believe you now are free?
Do you believe you're born to be
The Moonbeam Rider in the sky
The Moonbeam Rider in the sky


3. Le Pont Noir

I'm going to the bridge tonight
Venus shines so ever bright
Deep in the woods under the stars
How did I come to get this far?
Have this feeling...what will I find
Around the corner of my mind?

A thousand trees of creeping sin
Dead leaves blowing in the wind
I'm whistling an old melody
To keep the beast away from me
I hear the call of croaking frogs
Answering me lost in the fog
I tell myself, everything's fine
Here in these woods, for the first time

Uh, ohh!

Out in the dark, a shadow sound
Fear to look, but turn around
I realize I'm face to face
Two yellow eyes, an evil gaze
Ugly blood hound, no wagging tail
How long has he been on my trail?
Down to the bridge, he's leading me
What is it he wants me to see?

Uh, ohh!

Already we've arrived, Here I am
There's the bridge, Where's the man, What a scam!
That story 'bout the bridge isn't true
I'm enjoying myself, what a view!

They say the bridge is not what it is

No one ever comes back...so they say
What could happen to me, anyway?
From away, a tall man comes to me...
Has he been here waiting...just for me?

He says there's no more fishing in the lake
But one thing for sure...I'm the catch of the day!

This is what happens
When one looks for gold
Turn'd into gray stone
And down deep you are thrown!!

All this is over [X4]


4. The Nile Song

I was standing by the Nile
When I saw the lady smile
I would take her for a while
for a while

Light tears wept like a child
How her golden hair was blowing wild
Then she spread her wings to fly...for to fly

Soaring high above the breezes
Going always where she pleases
She will make it to the island...in the sun

I will follow in her shadow
As I watch her from my window
One day I will catch her eye

She is calling from the deep
Summoning my soul to endless sleep
She is bound to drag me down, drag me down


5. The Lost Machine

Lost machine, giant maze
Big engine, cruising space
Ozone years, controlled daze... keeps the engine running

Silver beams, analyze
Robot teams, supervise
That was then, this is now... it must run anyhow

Don't you try, to know why
We can't talk, close that door

My father, remembers
Grand-father, remembers
Patching holes, in the sky... it's running all of the time

I can tell, this is hell
No one talks, no one talks
One day will we understand
How much the future is here right now?
One day will they understand...
How true... the future is here, and how!

Remain silent

Lost machine, never fails
3-D screen, one message
Keep working, generate... it's the same everyday

Don't you try, to know why
I can't talk, close that door

My father gave me a small stone that he received from his father. This
stone was brought from earth by our early ancestors over 3OO years ago,
since the machine started working. Our mission... my mission, to reach
central control and throw it into some vital part of the main engine...
and blow the precious generator... I do not want to have to pass this
down to my own son...


6. Time Warp

What will happen if I can't come back?
What if I should fall between the cracks?

Will I go back and forth down on-line?
Wherever! It's a question of time

Watching my sand glass
I count to a thousand
I flip it over
A lifetime in my hand

I set the counter
And switch on the power
Transform my matter
Am I gone forever?

Am I tomorrow or yesterday?
Another second's just passed away
Upcoming present and future past
Am I the first? Could be the last

Over and under
I spiral down the line
I'm getting closer
I must be right on time
Closer, closer


7. Jack Luminous

Listen! Listen to me! Can't you hear me?!!
Listen! I beg of you!!
I have escaped the one who rules deep in space
He knows my name, I know his game
Now that I'm here, he will know where I am...
And he will get you too!!
And he will make you believe whatever he wants
Inside your brain, he'll play his game

Listen now!
Please! Don't you believe/whatever he says... whatever he says...

I'm no preacher, I'm no space cowboy
I'm no flash in the pan!!
Don't you know that you have another thing coming?
You are not safe, here in this place
Are you aware you face your lat dead line?
I am here to warn you... President X-D will be on your TV
Electron waves, a pixel face

Listen now!
Please! Don't you believe/whatever he says... whatever he says...

You will never switch him off, when you're hypnotized
Don't you dare to call his bluff, he's well organized

He gets around...

Listen to me, it's not easy... to let you be
Happy in your world, and you can't imagine
What will come from the Milky Way, far away
My words are clear, we can't stay here... what do you fear?
Happy in your world, and you can't imagine
What will come from the Milky Way, far away

You, people of this world, be prepared to greet Me
You, people of this world, you will submit to Me!

Deep into my third eye, you are getting sleepy
Deep into my third eye, now you belong to Me!

Now! Is the time, together we can change this place.. for the.. better

Now, focus on my voice, will you do it for me?
Now, focus on my voice, yes you will do it for me!

I'll give you everything, but you must come to me
I'll give you everything, but you'll have to join me!

Now! Is the time, together we can change this place.. for the.. better

You will never switch him off, when you're hypnotized
Don't you dare to call his bluff, he's well organized

X-D is coming... the sky is changing
X-D is coming... my head is spinning

And what about Hydra, Sirrah, Pollux and Gemma...
Diadem, Bellatrix, Mirach, Izar...

Lies are what we once knew, time to live something new, hey hey
We can no longer take things for granted
We can no remember what we wanted, hey hey
We're not slaves anymore, now we know what life is for
We don't fight anymore, he is what we're living for
We're not slaves anymore, now we know what life is for
We don't fight anymore... not anymore...

More than tears fill my eyes, as bright ships dot the sky
More than fear is in sight, as moon and sun stand by... and cry

So? This is the end, I'm leaving now, farewell my friends
X-D is now in control, making plans for His new home

Fate lights me from within, to the stars I'm fleeing
Earth heeds not my warning, forever sleepwalking... dreaming

So? This is the end, I'm leaving now, farewell my friends
Maybe one day, time will tell, I'll be back and break the spell...
I'll break the spell... break the spell...


8. Wrong-Way Street

I lost my key...Where is the door?
Am I living here anymore?
My souvenirs thrown on the floor
It's never been this bad before
I went outside to get a life
But everything was closed up tight
Why should I care? Why should I run?
Now that I'm home...my guitar's gone!

I'm taking it day by day
Life goes on...oh, yeah, life goes on...

Awake at night I look outside
A burning car in the dawning light
A sorry sight...another fight
A scenery in black and white
What can I do? What can I say?
It's a hard time in a hard place

I'm taking it day by day
Life goes on...oh, yeah, life goes on...

Don't ask me if I feel alright
I'm glad that I am here tonight
Don't ask me if it's wrong or right
Remember everything is fine
Remember...Forever

It's getting worse, most everyday
But has it always been this way?
This price I have to pay today
My goddamn house is in flames
A traffic jam...commercial breaks
And politicians' big disgrace
This planet earth...it's where I live
It's where I'll die, I do believe

I'm taking it day by day
Life goes on...oh, yeah, life goes on...


9. We Are Not Alone

We were lost in the valley
Midway between night and day
Which way's the goddamn highway??

"The car breaks down"

So, we walk ten million miles
All across some countryside
Until lightning struck the sky

"The rain came down"

Hey!
This house looks so creepy
Anybody home?
Look out! There's somebody!
We're not alone

Up three creaking wooden stairs
An old man with no hair...stares!
Sitting in a rocking chair

"Please be my guest"

He says I'm glad you are here
I have been waiting for years
You see, they land in my field

"Tonight's the night"

Hey!
You'll see...Don't you worry
Make youself at home
Maybe they'll be friendly
Or maybe not, but
Hey!
What if we're all crazy?
What if we're alone?
Then the sky is empty
And we're alone
We are alone
We're not alone
Are we alone?...alone...

Looking deep into the night
We'll see if the old man's right
So far...there's nothing in sight

"Except frostbite"

Flying low without a sound
Look out! They are all around
Spinning down, touching the ground

"Damn he was right!"

Hey!
We see! We're not worried!
We're not going home
They are green and ugly
Or maybe not...but,
Hey!
They are green and ugly
Who wants to go home?
God! We are so lucky!
We're not alone
We're not alone
We're not alone
(Welcome aboard)
