1. SALVATION

To all those people doin' lines
Don't do it - Don't do it
Inject your soul with liberty
It's free - It's free

[Pre-Chorus]
To all the kids with heroin eyes
Don't do it - Don't do it
Because it's not not what it seems
No no - It's not not what it seems

[Chorus]
Salvation - Salvation - Salvation is free
Salvation - Salvation - Salvation is free

To all the parents with sleepless nights
Sleepless nights
Tie your kids home to their beds
Clean their heads

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus] (x2)


2. FREE TO DECIDE

It's not worth anything more than this at all
I'll live as I choose or I will not live at all
So return to where you come from
Return to where you dwell
Because harassment's not my forte
But you do it very well

[Chorus]
I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
At all - At all - At all

You must have nothing more with your time to do
There's a war in Russia and Sarajevo too
So to hell with what you're thinking
And to hell with your narrow mind
You're so distracted from the real thing
You should leave your life behind - Behind - 'Cause

[Chorus]

I'm free to decide - I'm free to decide
And I'm not so suicidal after all
At all - At all - At all
At all - At all - At all


3. WHEN YOU'RE GONE

Hold on to love
That is what I do
Now that I've found you
And from above
Everything's stinking
They're not around you

[Pre-Chorus]
And in the night
I could be helpless
I could be lonely
Sleeping without you
And in the day
Everything's complex
There's nothing simple
When I'm not around you

But

[Chorus]
I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do - Baby
And it's going to carry on
That is what I knew - Hey baby

Hold on to my hands
I feel like sinking
Sinking without you
And to my mind
Everything's stinking
Stinking without you

[Pre-Chorus]

And

[Chorus]


4. HOLLYWOOD

I've got a picture in my head - In my head
It's me and you - We are in bed - We are in bed
You'll always be there when I call - when I call
You'll always be there most of all - All - All - All

[Pre-Chorus] (x2)
This is not Hollywood
Like I understood
It's not Hollywood
Like - Like - Like

[Chorus]
Away - Runaway - Is there anybody there?
Away - Runaway - Is there anybody there?
Get away - Get away - Get away
Get away - Get away - Get away

I've got a picture in my room - In my room
I will return there I presume - Should be soon
The greatest irony of all - Shoot the wall
It's not so glamorous at all - All - All - All

[Pre-Chorus] (x2)

[Chorus]

This is not Hollywood - Runaway
This is not Hollywood
Like - Like - Like ...


5. CORDELL

Though once you ruled my mind
I thought you'd always be there
And I'll always hold on to your face
But everything changes in time
And the answers are not always fair
And I hope you've gone to a better place

Cordell - Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I hope you've gone to a better place
Time will tell - Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I know that you've gone to a better place

Cordell (x7)

Your lover and baby will cry
But your presence will always remain
Is this how it was meant to be?
You meant something more to me
That what many people will see
And to hell with the endless dream

Cordell - Time will tell
They say that you've passed away
And I hope you've gone to a better place
Time will tell - Time will tell
We all will depart and decay
And we all will return to a better place

Cordell (x7)

Nana - Nana - Nana - Nana ...


6. ANIMAL INSTINCT

Suddenly something has happened to me
As I was having my cup of tea
Suddenly I was feeling depressed
I was utterly and totally stressed
Do you know you made me cry?
Do you know you made me die?

And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt
It is a lovely thing that we have
It is a lovely thing that we
It is a lovely thing - The animal
The animal instinct

So take my hands and come with me
We will change reality
So take my hands and we will pray
They won't take you away
They will never make me cry - No
They will never make me die

And the thing that gets to me
Is you'll never really see
And the thing that freaks me out
Is I'll always be in doubt

The animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - It's the animal - It's the animal instinct in me (x2)

The animal - The animal - The animal instinct in me
It's the animal - It's the animal - It's the animal instinct in me


7. PROMISES

You better believe I'm coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet - You'll get what you deserve
She's going to leave him over
She's gonna take her love away
So much for your eternal vows
Well - It does not matter anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't you stay here awhile?
Stay here awhile
Stay with me

[Chorus]
Oh - All the promises we made
All the meaningless and empty words
I prayed - Prayed - Prayed
Oh - All the promises we broke
All the meaningless and empty words
I spoke - Spoke - Spoke

What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you'd say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just throwing it all away
Maybe we should burn the house down
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cause tearing them out is just not right

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus] (x2)


8. YOU AND ME

I'm not going out tonight 'cause I don't want to go
I am staying at home tonight 'cause I don't want to know
You revealed a world to me and I would never be
Dwelling in such happiness - Your gift of purity

[Chorus]
You and me
It will always be
You and me
Forever be
Eternally
It will always be
You and me

Taylor (x4)

I don't pay attention to the ones who never care
Find your own direction 'cause there's sweetness in the air
You will be the world to me and I will always be
Dwelling in this happiness - Your gift of purity

[Chorus]

Always be
You and me
Forever be
Eternally
It will always be
You and me
Forever be
Eternally

Taylor (x8)


9. JUST MY IMAGINATION

There was a game we used to play
We would hit the town on friday night
And stay in bed until sunday
We used to be so free
We were living for the love we had
Living not for reality

[Chorus]
Just my imagination - Just my imagination
Just my imagination - It was
Just my imagination - Just my imagination
Just my imagination - It was

That was a time I used to pray
I have always kept my faith in love
It's the greatest thing from the man above
The game I used to play
I've always put my cards upon the table
Never be said that I'd be unstable

[Chorus]

There is a game I like to play
I like to hit the town on friday night
And stay in bed until sunday
We'll always be this free
We will be living for the love we have
Living not for reality

It's not my imagination - It's not my imagination
It's not my imagination - It was
Not my imagination - Not my imagination
Not my imagination - It was

Not my (x16)


10. NEVER GROW OLD

I had a dream
Strange it may seems
It was my perfect day
Open my eyes
I realize
This is my perfect day

Hope you never grow old (x4)

Do - Do - Do -Do ...

Birds in the sky
They look so high
This is my perfect day
I feel the breeze
I feel at ease
It is my perfect day

Hope you never grow old (x4)

Forever young
I hope you'll stay
Forever young

Do - Do - Do -Do ...


11. ANALYSE

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
We are free
We can be wide open
For you open my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray - We will stay
Wide open

(x2)
Don't analyse
Don't analyse
Don't go that way
Don't lead that way
That would paralyze your evolution

[Chorus] (x2)
La La La
This greatest moment
La La La
The strangest day
La La La
The greatest love of them all

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
Fantasize - Fantasize
We are open
For you open my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray - We will stay
Together

[Chorus] (x2)

La La La La La La ...


12. TIME IS TICKING OUT

We'd better think about the things we say
We'd better think about the games we play
The world went round - Around and round
We'd better think about the consequences
We'd better think about the global senses
The time went out - The time went out

What about Chernobyl?
What about radiation?
We don't know - We don't know
What about deprivation?
Gluttony - The human nation
We don't know - We don't know
For me love is all - For me love is all
For me love is all - For me love is all
Time is ticking out

Looks like we screwed up the ozone layer
I wonder if the politicians care
The time went out - The time went out

What about our children then?
Is there nothing left for them?
We don't know - We don't know
For me love is all - For me love is all
For me love is all - For me love is all
They need oxygen - They need oxygen
For me love is all - For me love is all

Time is ticking out - Yeah
The time is ticking out


13. THIS IS THE DAY

I've never had a friend like you
This is the day
Your skin is white - Your eyes are blue
This is the day
But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you

These thoughts - They circle in my mind
This is the day
The demons I can't leave behind
This is the day

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't be insecure
I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you

[Chorus]
Faith will save you (x3)
Stay - Stay
Faith will save you (x3)
Stay - Stay

Stay ...

I have Provoked thy grace into my mind
This is the day
Provoked thy grace that are divine
This is the day

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Stay ...

But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will still be here
But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you

[Chorus] (x2)

Stay


14. NEW NEW YORK

[Chorus]
New - New - New
New - New - New
New New York skyline
Wounds may heal in time
Don't crumble - Don't dismay
It's a new New York today

I look across these city streets
My heart is numb - It still beats
Nothing to say
There's nothing to say
I look across this empty room
My heart is still in gloom
There's nothing to say
I only can pray

[Chorus]

I look across these city streets
My heart is cold - It beats
30th of may
Ground zero today

New - New - New
New - New - New

I get down on my knees and pray
For the heroes of the day
No comfort I can find
For the loved ones left behind

They won't tear us apart (x4)

No way
New day
New day


15. STARS

The stars are bright tonight
And I am walking nowhere
Guess I will be alright
Desire gets you nowhere
And you are always right
I thought you were so perfect

Take you as you were
Have you as you were
Take you as you were

[Chorus]
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I'll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are?

The stars are bright tonight
A distance is between us
And I will be ok
The worst I've ever seen us
And still I have my weaknesses
Still I have my strength
And still I have my ugliness
But I - I - I

[Chorus]

Star - Star
