Geist (free) 05:47
There, there it is again: the will of the stars A desire that will still, Will still your bleeding heart And make the mountains quake He wants to win the sky, to own the air Oh, so many thousands knew A thousand men knew how Fewer still know now It is a lazy grave That will end in your sleep Oh Lord, in any way you can Let me know He wants to win the sky, to own the air, to have his share Oh, so many thousands knew A thousand men knew how Fewer still know now

Waited up to wait it out I built it up from the ground On the other side of down I hope you are found And to bridge this great divide To scratch at oblivion You will fortify your mind Whatever else may come And however else you fly Nothing can stop you now As you watch the days go by Slowly counting down What's the best thing in your life, champion? What's the best part of your life, champion? So far from home (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough) You'll roam the road (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough) Slow it down to speed it up But the hands won't budge And all you want is to be loved That might be enough It will be your shield and sword On these golden plains As you search for your reward Always in vain And however else you fly Nothing can stop you now As you watch the days roll by Slowly counting down What's the best thing in your life, champion? What's the best part of your life, champion? So far from home (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough) You'll roam the road (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough) On and on and on and on... What's the best thing in your life, champion? What's the best part of your life, champion? So far from home (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough) You'll roam the road (and you're good enough, you're good enough, you're good enough)

With every lie you tell, The boils on your other face, they start to swell God it's an ugly sight, Watching you stumble in a hurry to try and hide I take this away, Half of you is minotaur, and the other is snake Where did you buy your mask? It's clear it was forged by a master of her craft Nobody wants to know They can't, they don't Everything goes... And goes... and goes Off to paradise I'll roam Oh Elysian Fields, I'm finally home If it were to disappear, The memory would always be kept near The calling of the grave Sweetest sisters Misery, can I change your name? And hang you off the moon? Set my hopes and I'll climb up there pretty soon The forks in the road Never tell you which way your destiny will go And mystery lies still, Always mute and beckoning free exercise of will Nobody wants to know They can't, they won't Everything goes... And goes... and goes Off to paradise I'll roam Oh Elysian Fields, I'm finally home If it were to disappear, The memory would always be kept near

Sea Song 04:22
Put all my love letters in dress-shoe boxes, Kept the house impeccably clean, Got my cologne in the refrigerator, And frozen dinners buy-one-get-one-free Active minds will follow idle bodies, Ironing receipts of take-out Chinese, I'm having problems with articulation, So I'll knit hats for the cats to wear on holiday And I... can't say it, I guess I'll put it down somewhere in writing for you, With a card, or a post it or something, But I wouldn't know what weight of paper to use Our friend Jon Sanning is getting married, And the moon will crash into the sea Under the waves will we all be buried, In Neptune's realm we meet our final destiny Speaking of which I thought I should put in, How I've never quite come clean, It's not a question of my depth of feeling, It's just an answer I know but cannot speak And I... can't say it, Can I get you some more of that Tarte Flambé? Or a soft drink? You know I love... William Faulkner & Doris Day After years of pain the words remain, What I say is my only truth, And to say it finally makes me free, It was never you it was always me I would wait by your side for the tide to rise, And carry you on my back to shore, I would carry you across the sun, I will love you in a world undone And now I say it At last I say it Oh my darling what you mean to me In every thought In every feeling You're the ghost that haunts me out to sea And all the sirens With all their sweet song Couldn't lure me away from you My course is charted No deviation I will not hide my love from view

I know all your hopes and dreams, The big ideas worn on your sleeve Truthfully what worth are they? Ambitions alone won't pave the way With one eye open, With both I know you would fall And it's funny while your laughing, But it's satisfaction not everlasting And you sit, and you wait, For the day to come, but it's only in your mind, And you think that it's fate, That's left you there behind The arrogance of youth is strong, Its trickery may last too long Time is never gracious, Every breath and every word you have is gold With one eye open, With both I know you would fall All those wasted days you wonder And always regret what might have been Oh, and you sit, and you wait, For the day to come, but it's only in your mind, And you think that it's fate, That's left you there behind Dreams are a funny thing, A fuel for life from day to day, But you, you just focus on The trivial things that pass along your way Wake up from your dreams I beg And see the sweetness in your life Cut out the excuses, And your dreams will come and sweep you away Oh, and you sit, and you wait, For the day to come, but it's only in your mind, And you think that it's fate, That's left you there behind

Raubtier 03:06
I've hunted you for miles and miles, Tracked the scent of blood and bile With pretty hands I reach your feet, Seperating bone from meat Ich bin ein Raubtier aus Kristall Du hast überhaupt keine Wahl Ich kriege alles was ich will Und das ist sicherlich sehr viel Und ich warte auf dich Und ich warte auf dich Your Lagan Love is far from fair, Her hollow face and copper hair, Of hot desire have stoked the flames, Of countless knaves without names Ich bin ein Raubtier aus Kristall Du hast überhaupt keine Wahl Ich kriege alles was ich will Und das ist sicherlich sehr viel Und ich warte auf dich Und ich warte auf dich The frosty sins upon my home, Confront me everywhere I roam Red on white I clenched your bride, And in those snowy drifts she died And all of your children will never be found And all of your children will never be found And all of your children will never be found And all of your children will never
