Act I 17:26
Scene I - Intro Just tired Of being torn Between light and darkness Simply tired Of this growing feeling of emptiness I still can’t find myself I feel I’m living the life of somebody else Do I make the calls Or are they made for me Are you even there For all that I see I search for you Outside and in But anything I do feels like a sin There’s a growing pain inside I feel I’m going out of my mind I know you like things Done at your pace But I feel I’ve fallen out of grace Scene II - Meaningless words Every fibre in my bone Tells me the words are wrong And words mean nothing I’ve always known What matters is How you feel inside The love sublime The presence divine So, where are you? What do you want me to do? If words are meaningless and you are silent There’s nothing! Every day I walk alone I’m searching for the truth And words are written As if your own I sail away in a sea of lies Where by that same word Someone dies So, am I wrong? Why do I feel so alone? And here we are! Don’t you think this has gone too far? If words are meaningless and you are silent There’s nothing! Scene III - Innocence There was a time when I looked at the world With a simpler view But now I find There’s so much more than I knew… Innocence lost Are you ready to pay the cost? Innocence gone Another world is born Everything was so simple All in black and white And the colours of the rainbow But the world caught up And showed me all shades of sorrow Innocence faded All dreams degraded Innocence away All colours are shades of grey So, tell me, was it my choice or fate? And you ask what happened to my faith? Scene IV - Conformity Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper et in saecula saeculorum, Amen Rules are meant to be followed Laws obeyed You are meant to be in your place Don’t think Just do what you’re told What’s sacred Has to hallowed Aren’t we the ones who seek justice? Aren’t we the meek? Aren’t we the ones who shall inherit the Earth? We are the ones who seek peace We are the ones who mourn We are the ones who shall inherit the Earth Power must be respected Don’t raise your head You just have to do what we say Don’t question Remember what is written We are the enlightened Aren’t we the ones who seek justice? Aren’t we the meek? Aren’t we the ones who shall inherit the Earth? We are the ones who seek peace We are the ones who mourn We are the ones who shall inherit the Earth Scene V –First Love Pt.I It was a midsummer’s day When she passed on by in blue And right there I knew There was something different in me I went out of my way To cross her path every single day Just to get a glance And imagine what it could be… Scene VI – Lust Blood boils Takes your reason away It dominates you Makes you go astray Feel the lust Feel the push Make it harder Play the game Go insane Doesn’t matter Get right up Never stop Adrenalize World gone Only pleasure is the higher one So awake I never felt so free Floating on feelings That come crushing down on me New sensation Intoxication More, more, Feel the skin And deep within Getting stronger Just relax Ride the wave Is there share? Feels like heaven But it seems like a nightmare Cut me open Rip me apart Just drive a stake Through my heart I’m filled with daemons And shades on my soul I realise now The world is cold Scene VII - First Love pt.II I finaly met her When she came and sat by me that day I swear she could see The passion in my eyes It was with no surprise I saw a shade of pain But I hanged on to hope It was all that remained How many sleepless nights Thinking of what to Dreaming awake How it might feel to be with you I have to say You were my sunshine everyday And I had to tell you How I felt inside I’ve put away my pride And opened up my heart I knew nothing had changed inside you I was back to the start How could something so pure Became such a pain? How many times I prayed in vain? Life went on She is nothing but a memory But there was a time She meant the world to me There are lessons in life You only learn the hard way Things never change No matter how much you pray How many sleepless nights Lost in the shadows Dreaming awake Reliving all my sorrows How could something so pure Weight so heavy on my soul? How many times I felt the cold?

Act II 16:54
Scene I – Heaven can wait Time Was not on our side You knew Life draining day by day A need to live for today A constant wait A long awayt for a known end Uncertainty I don’t know if I’ll break or bend I told you “Heaven can wait” You said it was all just fate I saw you Fading away And all I could do Was wait day by day I told you “Heaven can wait” You said “God wants what He wants” I said I needed you more than He did You said it was all just fate Injustice The way of the world Why is death So cold? I told you “Heaven can wait” You said it was all just fate Scene II – The Great Divide I try To understand But the logic fails By Your own hand A test of faith? How can I find my way out of this rat maze Is this a nightmare? Don’t you think it’s fair to ask If You are really there? Shouldn’t a simple mention of you Serve to unite? Shouldn’t we accept that Nobody’s right? So how come Your name is The Great Divide? I fake being strong So nobody can see me Come undone It’s hard to keep faith When all the world seems To explode In everybody’s face So, if You’re really there How come you made this world So unfair? Shouldn’t a simple mention of you Serve to unite? Shouldn’t we accept that Nobody’s right? Tell me, why is Your name The Great Divide? Scene III – Passion Passion Was like a river in your eyes Flowing like a fire That arouse desire Whenever you walked by I lost my soul In you sweet but wicked smile And so we danced In a romance Had on borrowed time Days and nights When Pleasure was supreme But everyday Something fade away Inside of our dreams Never knew If it was worth the tears I’ve cried But, all in all, We had done it all It was time to say goodbye These flames Are never meant to be They are to burn bright Shine they’re light And leave a memory Nights of passion That made me concede That somewhere in the world Love was not so cold There’s reason to believe Scene IV – Miracle Do you know how long I prayed for a miracle? She came to me in light As she had come in my dreams She took me away from the night And filled my soul with screams Of joy Those eyes of jade That see through my soul Tell me I will never be alone Those harms that hold me In the night Show me how my soul shines bright I’ve been waiting for so long I finally know to whom I belong You gotta pray for a miracle Everyday You gotta pray for a miracle Whatever comes your way You gotta pray for a miracle Every single day Just pray for a miracle You know I prayed for a miracle everyday For a long time And nothing ever Felt right You know I prayed for a miracle everyday For a long time And then one came and opened this heart of mine Whatever comes your way Every single day Just pray for a miracle...

Act III 18:42
Scn. I - Vain gods Look at what has changed Since you’ve been gone… A golden calf is sat upon your throne All worshiping a lie They don’t know How much they die inside The vein gods of our times Who bathe in gold and pride, They die in search of fame And the world just stays the same Masters of illusion, Afraid of oblivion All Idols with clay feet, Empty inside and selling you their meat! The vein gods of our times Who bathe in gold and pride, They die in search of fame And the world just stays the same   Scn. II - 9/11 I watched in disbelief The crumbling down of our dream The conquest of sanity by madness Live on the media screens All seen on live TV In broad daylight for the world to see Conclusions drawn, we must react Attack, Attack, attack Blinded by faith in deceivers All wanted revenge And ended up buying a war With no quarter nor trench So you feel nothing’s right Is this all just a quiz? You’ve been long in a search And don’t know what the truth is? There’s a voice inside your head Why don’t you listen to it instead? So what is the fight for, Your life or the interests of few? You must discern what’s right! Do you believe the news? So you start on your path And you’re blinded by light, So many false truths You don’t know what is right… Well, there’s a voice inside your head You don’t you listen to it instead There’s a conscience in your head Why don’t you listen to it instead!   Scn. III - Wolves So is this it Will indifference make us fall? Are there any heroes left to save us all? We are the ones who allow So few to so much that we don’t know It’s not as if they are wolves in disguise, So why do we keep upholding their lies? They’ll hide the truth with a thick cover So you don’t leave before the show is over, But think and you’ll discover That you are just fresh meat And they are about to eat It’s not as if they are wolves in disguise, So why do we keep upholding their lies? We see them, we talk to them, we even vote And that’s just before they go down On our throats   Scn. IV - Consumption Drowning in a sea of information, Cut out from the source of creation, Driven to the edge of insanity, Meaninglessness for eternity They want to control what you say or not, They want to control thought Their plan is deceive, want you to believe Life is what you bought So you sit in front of your TV, So much going on but can’t you see, You are just a number, just a thing, A small pin in a big machine They want to control what you say or not, They want to control thought Their plan is deceive, want you to believe Life is what you bought Scn. V - Masks   How many versions are there of oneself? Are you sure you are you or are you someone else? Why is it a choice not to care? Is it so hard to look at? Do you even dare? Is it alright To stand by the side And watch the world blow? Why refuse to choose When our choices make us grow? All that is known Is what is seen In a media screen And we’re laughing at the clown While the circus burns down Lives obscured by clouds of fantasy, Masking away the ugliness of reality Streaming endless days of apathy With facts turned into lies by ideology Is it alright To stand by the side And watch the world blow? Why refuse to choose When our choices make us grow? All that is known Is what is seen In a media screen And we’re laughing at the clown While the circus burns down   Scn. VI - Meaning The air’s seems so loaded Electricfied, A relative quiet before the storm Life seems encoded Fate seems to be tied To things without shape nor form Life has to be more Than days without end There has to be meaning Something to transcend It all seems more Than we all can cope Will someone please Deliver us hope A strange woken sleep Falls over so deep That seems to kill the soul Just shells left behind All broken inside Simply waiting to grow old There are no more prophets There are no more truths It seems we were left all alone Now money is power And power is law And life just weights like a stone
