now you will run
for your life
the sinners guns
been fired twice
once for the silver
once for the gold
it's like a river
so I’ve been told
she turns her cards
to see him come
the skeleton smile
says his gone
he ran for the silver
ran for the gold
it's like a river
I’ve been told
in the river of dreams
you tell no lie
for you wear the Jesus with sapphire eyes
in the river of dreams
your heart turns old
and you wear the Jesus in silver and gold
the river of dreams
attach your head
to the machine of all humankind's prayers
when you step down
into the stream
you'll be dirty instead of clean
in the river of dreams
you tell no lie
for you wear the Jesus with sapphire eyes
in the river of dreams
your heart turns old
and you wear the Jesus in silver and gold

take a look at these boys
they want to play with unholy toys
six strings from Hell
they are the jesters of all good hope
swinging on at the end of the rope
of the big wild bell
the sound of the boys is so loud
the sweetest of whispers right now
no sign of a sun for the screaming messiah
come fetch your hungry bones
it's eating your soul
six strings from hell
the devil's at play in rock'n'roll
with a babyface such as mine
there ain’t no girl who will show me a good time
I need some black voodoo
the boys on the other hand shine
like a knife in the hand of a crazy man
six strings from Hell
the sound of the boys is so loud
the sweetest of whispers right now
no sign of a sun for the screaming messiah
come fetch your hungry bones
it's eating your soul
six strings from hell
the devil's at play in rock'n'roll

days like chasing dogs
they make me run
for the one I love
rise, the world turns dark
like scarecrows gone
before the dawning day
with a face like that
you'll always become
the ruler of my kingdom
these rooms are strange
I see myself
as no more than an animal
come, you shiny thing
look what they've done
to the one I love
run, the scent is out
you know, sorrow colours the angel
with a face like that
you'll always become
the ruler of my kingdom
these rooms are strange
I see myself
as no more than an animal
because of days like chasing dogs
for I'm the king of black despair
but in these rooms I really don't care
and with a face like that
you'll always become
the ruler of my kingdom
these rooms are strange
I see myself
as no more than an animal

I met her in the desert
my pockets full of sand
she led me down to the river
and there she took my hand
under the moon I felt her heat
and the heart it beat and it beat and it beat and it beat
she was a woman
and I'm her man
this is love love love, aaah
I wake up in the morning
the sun is killing me
I watch the disco king
who's dying on tv
it's under the moon we are complete
and the heart it beat and it beat and it beat and it beat
she was a woman
and I'm her man
this is love love love, aaah
your halo is burning
holes in my eyes
a tiny bell is mourning in the desert night
she was a woman
and I'm her man
this is love love love, aaah

she was waiting for the right man to come
but years went by and she was still alone
so she could not adore but she would long
her ways became a sad and wailing song
my life is empty, I have done what I can
please redeem my frail demand
she was praying for love to come along
don't let your dreams turn you away
shine on lover
when shadows rest upon your face
my sister and brother
unveil the dead rules, take my hand
shine on lover
deny the plain and common end
he was running from what he had become
but years went by, he still was on his own
my life is empty, I have done what I can
please redeem my frail demand
he was praying for love to come along
don't let your dreams turn you away
shine on lover
when shadows rest upon your face
my sister and brother
unveil the dead rules, take my hand
shine on lover
deny the plain and common end
don’t let your dreams turn you away
let’s go together, take my hand
don't let your dreams turn you away
shine on lover
when shadows rest upon your face
my sister and brother
unveil the dead rules, take my hand
shine on lover
deny the plain and common end

the gate is open
come and see the dome
some of you never feel
what we all have become
the salesroom is at hand
where money is made
they show a painted face,
but they don't show the real trade
Frankie, did you get to your hollywood
or does the sun out west burn boys like you
Frankie, did you get to your hollywood
if not, I can only hope one day you do
the spinning fortune wheel
is out of control
the future is hard to see
but it's in the wheel's hold
some games you can win
but some you will loose
never play 'bout your soul
or the devil is introduced
Frankie, did you get to your hollywood
or does the sun out west burn boys like you
Frankie, did you get to your hollywood
if not, I can only hope one day you do

underground there's a brave new world
it's always night in Japan
cameras witness long slim legs
it's always night in Japan
as the old world melts
we slide on rails
moved into the light
we are never denied
we are never deprived
the robots of night
we're in the world of the rising sun
still it's always night in Japan
everything shines so bright
the burning colours leaving you blind
blinded by the neon disarray
it's like a starship this land
on display are the brands of today
a beautiful castle of sand
you don't have to sleep
you don't have to breath
in this high-tech mirage
still you've got tatooed
all over your back
the signs of the past
we're in the world of the rising sun
still it's always night in Japan
everything shines so bright
the burning colours leaving you blind
inside the cage of the dragonfire
it’s always night in Japan
follow the frame of light
the burning colours leaving us blind

please search with honesty
before you disclose your state
I wear the stain you gave
in this lingering dance we fade
we'll always be
the addict of love
in solitude
the addict of love
this trembling cross
a thing of wicked beauty
we'll always be
the addict of love
pass me the looking-glass
wherein our finest times are kept
and the city, the holy city, glows
denying the loss I accept
we'll always be
the addict of love
in solitude
the addict of love
this trembling cross
a thing of wicked beauty
we'll always be
the addict of love

I can feel your hold again
this time follow my lead
tonight the lights are blinding
tonight the sound is crying
and you want more
of caressing noise
tonight you are the monster
the beast I hide inside
in a race against time
tonight you are the monster
the beast I hide inside
in a race against time
you are the burning star
I can feel you're strong again
so this time I follow your lead
tonight my city's rising
tonight we show our size
and I want more
of caressing noise
tonight you are the monster
the beast i hide inside
in a race against time
tonight you are the monster
the beast i hide inside
in a race against time
you are the burning star
welcome to the tower
the electric saints are gone
through the empty pipes they run
tonight you are the monster
the beast i hide inside
in a race against time
tonight you are the monster
the beast i hide inside
in a race against time
you are the burning star

it seems this feeling is here for good
I never thought it would stay
but I’m still ahead
but I’m still ahead
watch your secrets as were they gold
‘cause they live a life on their own
detached from your heart
my scars keep itching
I see strange pictures
they pound in my head
say what you will
but it’s time again
the sun sets
a glowing shuttle in space
and as we watch it escape
we fill our heads with beautiful visions
the last light gently touches my face
watch your secrets as were they gold
‘cause they live a life on their own
detached from your heart
my scars keep itching
I see strange pictures
they pound in my head
say what you will
but it’s time again
telling our stories
loved one, it’s time to go
and I am scared now
I can see my secrets crawl under my skin
unleash your hounds let them ravish these godless grounds
watch your secrets as were they gold
‘cause they live a life on their own
trailing the soil
the Devil is waiting
I see strange pictures
they pound in my head
say what you will
but it’s time again
telling our stories
loved one, it’s time to go
and I am scared now
I can see my secrets crawl under my skin

stretch
reach for that circling light
in this room
everything seems to escape
the tv is leaking
cover your face
in this room
the pictures bleed from the screen
watch it all turn
on naked feet
as they say
life is always somewhere else
a believer
spider-like
waiting for the rain to come
a dog with no mouth
hiding his toxic bones
watch it all turn
on naked feet
as they say
life is always somewhere else
come to my rescue
with desperate means
the world is numb you see
everyone numb
pray for the sister with the metal heart
