Abraxas - The Liaison

Sometimes at night I look up to the sky
a million stars fills the dark
Sometimes at night I look into the sky
I wish I'd be there!

[Verse 1:]
Sometimes at night when I'm closin' my eyes
some strange event passes by
Lightning's are crossing the sky
Is this a dream or reality?

[Verse 2:]
When do we learn to forgive our faults?
When do we start to live again?
Open your eyes and you will see
that we can't turn our heads all the time!

[Refrain:]
Lights in the night are gonna fade away
Mankind sleep alone
Nobody has ever seen this before
We rise in the same time we fall

[Verse 3:]
Yesterdays people meet tomorrow's dreams
downtown when they are on 'speed'
Future is risin' over the hills
We're not alone in this universe!

[Refrain:]
Lights in the night are gonna fade away
Mankind sleep alone
Nobody has ever seen this before
We rise in the same time we fall

Abraxas - Tomorrow's World

[Verse 1:]
Black was the night the all covered sky sending rain and fire
2066 a different world as we know
Two old men lightened up by a candles flame
A glance from their eyes showing no future at all

[Bridge 1:]
They tell a story which I can't believe
Listen to them and hear

[Refrain:]
Visions of tomorrow's world
See that mankind didn't learn
What we've built in thousand years
to pieces it is blown!

[Verse 2:]
Listening to them a wounded soldier came along
Tired and hungry he is sitting down
A broken hero damned by his own rules
He's turning in circles there's no way out

[Bridge 2:]
Tears fallin' down from his eyes to the ground
as he remembered the

[Refrain:]
Visions of tomorrow's world
See that mankind didn't learn
What we've built in thousand years
to pieces it is blown!

[Bridge 3:]
Clear is the day sunshine is falling in my room
As I woke up no signs at all
Scared by a dream I know this can't go on and on
People wake up and beware

[Verse 3:]
Black was the night the all covered sky sending rain and fire
2066 a different world as we know
Two old men lightened up by a candles flame
A glance from their eyes showing no future at all

[Bridge 4:]
There's only one way that we have to go open
your eyes for the

[Refrain:]
Visions of tomorrow's world without crime and
without hurt
What we've built in thousand years
lasts eternally!

Same old stories same old lies again
TV preachers selling member cards

Abraxas - Stolen Memories

I wake up soon before the dawn brakes
What's this place where am I?
I squat alone in the corner of any room
A fear to run a fear to hide

Sweat ice-cold it runs down on my neck
The door is locked barricades beside
Oh god is this my own house?
Who has this done perhaps I myself?

[Bridge:]
Pieces of a dream come back to me
A dream so wonderful a dream so frightening
Faces in my memories are passin' by
Don't know who don't know where there are

Dirty faces in the mirror deadly lookin' down on me
Empty rooms with white dressed people in a dessert far away
Many needles in my arms headphones talkin' low to me
And a wall of foreign memories hides a secret endlessly

Faces in my mind are gettin' clearer
Some are friends some are really bad
We all share anything mysterious
A secret that's stolen from my mind

[Bridge:]
Pieces of a dream come back to me
A dream so wonderful a dream so frightening
Faces in my memories are passin by
Don't know who don't know where they are

[Refrain:]
Feel it coming step away from me
Stolen memories won't come back to me

Abraxas - Explorers

[Verse 1:]
Ships cross the ocean shatter the time
'cause a new thinking arise that change our minds
leave all the certain behind

[Verse 2:]
Heroes are lonely new era begins
Reality is fading away whatever they do
Whatever they gonna do!

[Refrain:]
Many times in the history of the world
special kind of men are crossin' borderlines
There are signs everywhere in the universe
and you need only one to pick them up

[Verse 3:]
Hallowed for conquest punished for crimes
Burned for the knowledge and truth
Believe and trust that's what a man keeps alive

[Verse 4:]
Questions need answers like the desert needs rain
Tomorrow's thinkin' and deeds are yesterdays dreams
Forever they gonna last

[Refrain:]
Many times in the history of the world
special kind of men are crossin' borderlines
There are signs everywhere in the universe
and you need only one to pick them up

Abraxas - Faded Photographs

Movin' slow blood runs cold promises ever behold
Targets there at last view
Start up the engine and be a hero today

Holy mission trapped in tradition a place in paradise
Honor of the family the final step into eternity

[Bridge:]
Time goes on for you and me
Vision or reality
Part of history no one know
Usual live goes on

[Refrain:]
Faded photographs
Remains at all
Faded photographs

Mother cries lying pictures
Happiness calls from other times
Suicide is it right
Martyr dies in the name of God

[Bridge:]
Time goes on for you and me
Vision or reality
Part of history
Usual live goes on

[Refrain:]
Faded photographs
Remains at all
Faded photographs

Abraxas - Gates to Eden

Verse 1:]
Outside the rain is falling
The moon stands pale and cold
Somewhere the clock strikes midnight
six ours left to go
Justice says I'm guilty but is this really true?
Governor shows no mercy now the chair waits for me

I got a dream a long time ago
Visions of my life
Terrible deeds I saw in that night
violence crime and lies!

Now I'm on my way to the gates of Eden

Sometimes I feel anger about my own life
I wouldn't see the danger in those days
Steps outside the celldoor coming close to me
Sunbeams of the rising dawn makes me fear!

I got a dream a long time ago
Visions of my life
Terrible deeds I saw in that night
violence crime and lies!

[Bridge 3:]
Cold sweat is flowing slowly down on my back
The sands of times are running there's no turning back
The priest reads the last writes guardian stands beside
My blood runs faster now it's time to die!

[Bridge 4:]
Now I'm leavin' up to another world
Maybe a better place to live maybe to sleep

[Bridge 5:]
Tears rollin' down on my cheeks as my life drifts before me
I'm afraid of the coming but no one can hear my silent cries

[Bridge 6:]
Goodbye Mama goodbye my love
Goodbye to the rest of all
The time is right for the last farewell
Stop from cryin' hide your tears
I'm not worth for all those fears
Send me a smile before I walk away

My heart is drummin' as they lead me to the chair
The smilin' face of death - I see everywhere
Hangman comes closer
Last cigarette I can smoke
Than he will take the switch to turn my life off

Visions of my life
Terrible deeds I saw in that night

Ready to pass the gates of Eden

Abraxas - Into the Light

Sometimes when I close my eyes I see faded days
A young man full of hopes and dreams a better life to live

[Bridge:]
Time for me to go has come
I'm standing at the point of no return
There's no way out
I'm lost with every step I do

Then I got in touch with friends I never better known
Loosin' job and security a straight way into crime

[Bridge:]
Time for me to go has come
I'm standing at the point of no return
There's no way out
I'm lost with every step I do

[Refrain:]
Into the light never come back

Into the light

Now it seems to late for me a never needed junkies life
There's only one thing left to say
don't trust drugs and there false shine

[Bridge:]
Time for me to go has come
I'm standing at the point of no return
There's no way out
I'm lost with every step I do

Into the light never come back
Revelations coming
Into the light one way ahead
Into the light

[Verse 1:]
The day is fadin' away and the night comes with strength
Shadows has conquered the town now it's time to begin

Shadows and darkness protecting me
Hidin' my face in the twilight
If there's a God where should he be?

Every night we didn't sleep
every fight we didn't win

so many miles from home
Fight kill and die here in the desert sands

Abraxas - Cry of the Nature

[Verse 1:]
Cracked by the storm
the waves and the sea
the ship sinks down on the ground
Filled up with oil that streams to the sea
turning the blue into black

[Bridge 1:]
When do we learn to prevent our faults?
When do we turn back to life?
This is the world where we only can live!
There will be no second chance!

The cry of the nature is seldom be heard
a slap in it's face all we gave
The air is polluted we can't breath at all
The dice will be cast here at last

We poison our rivers we dirten the air
Nobody cares about it all
Turning our heads everyday everytime
it's only a matter of time

Now it is time to prevent our mistakes
Now it is time to turn back!
This world's the only place where we can live
there will be no second chance!

This world's the only place where we can live
There will be no second chance!

The sense of our times are running away
Give us a chance - so just give us a chance
give us a chance to survive

Forgotten dreams lost inside
Hide your tears from others pride
Feelings so cold habits grow old
