VULTURES PARADISE Vultures Paradise (Music: Tito, Paravidino / Lyrics: Tito) My ajar eyes are hurtin' Everything is red and burnin' Can barely see those movin' spots above me Why am I meant to be here Supposed be a square meal Without a clue I've reached their nest in good faith But terror filled my ears The highest pitch of fear These carrion eaters in a shriekin' nightmare Their shiny peckers, no one else around I'm left here on my own The pain is gettin deeper in my soul Ripped and bruised and torn Vultures paradise - Headin' for the main course Vultures paradise - Waitin', turnin' circles Vultures paradise - Whirlin' to the main course Vultures paradise - You're invited... There is no feedin' frenzy And they just keep on waitin' There is no hurry to prepare the banquet Your dreams will be a starter The meal's not just about it The full course features your complete destruction Their nature's black and deadly You'll never understand it Until you realize how hungry they can be Their shiny peckers, no one else around I'm left here on my own The pain is gettin' deeper in my soul Ripped and bruised and torn Vultures paradise - Headin' for the main course Vultures paradise - They're turnin' circles Vultures paradise - Waitin' for the main course Vultures paradise - You're invited too Stretch my hand and try to understand If I'm dead or still alive Birds of prey, there's something you won't take away My pride My ajar eyes - Hurtin' Everything - Red and burnin' Flappin' loud - Whirlin' Much too late - Time to worry A crazy world deceivin' Not easy to believe in Cause when you're outside you don't care to find it out Despair and desolation all around In their ugly dome Your future will be put off like a scary tale Never to be told Vultures paradise - Ready, you're the main course Vultures paradise - Waitin', turnin' circles Vultures paradise - Whirlin' to the main course Vultures paradise - Fill your bellies Vultures paradise - Vultures paradise Vultures paradise - Vultures paradise The Cube (Music: Tito / Lyrics: Orlandini) Scanning all the days of my life Walking through the memories I can't remember how it started and I Don't know... "Why am I here?" I look around and all I see now Just another empty room My blood runs cold, realizing I'm a prisoner in the Cube Fear. The creacking walls, the moving floor No matter... something must be done So many doors before my eyes Just one will lead me to the light Where are the dreams we had before? Our future expectations? I'd kill a friend to reach the end That's alienation rising... Look for the exit in myself Or else I'll roam in vain Oh... I gotta keep on the right way I run against my time To get me out before it's too late I fight against myself To reach the end before I go insane Agony. No time and no direction, I'm Not telling the new sections My mind begins again to wave It's blinding me, there's no escape Dance on the line between my life And death who's calling loudly But no religions help me out My self-belief is all I've got Find a solution in numbers To get back to the light Oh... I gotta keep on the right line I run against my time To get me out before it's too late I fight against myself To reach the end before I go insane Your cry will reach the sky Our time will come to break the Cube inside Cause freedom seems to be So close to me, so close to me... Paranoia is leading me now to insanity I know Madness is the easy way out... Here is the door to the exit To win the Cube inside Oh... I gotta keep on the right line I run against my time To get me out before it's too late I fight against myself To reach the end before I go insane Your cry will reach the sky Our time will come to break the Cube inside Cause freedom seems to be So close to me, so close to me... Screams Of A Dying World (Music & Lyrics: Paravidino) Dreams of living a better world Hope to reach our final goal It's all gone - Just live your day once more The golden years and then decay The game breaks off, pawns thrown away The show is over - Can we still find our way? In our hearts, in our souls We'll be fighting till the end Though there's not much left to hope Children cry, no one cares about And if we die, they'll be burnt out They will scream - With nobody there to hear Our politicians have worked hard Built some rocket ships for the stars They say we're sorry - You know, there's no seat left As we lay, the starships rise They'll be the breed to survive No more taming lies As we lay, Earth's our grave We are damned For we already hear The screams of a dying world Mankind dying - Ground is burning In our hearts, in our souls We'll be fighting till the end Though there's not much left to hope In our hearts, in our souls But we are damned For we already hear The screams of a dying world Chains Of Life (Music: Tito / Lyrics: Paravidino) Life is a chain that grabs you from behind Feel the growing pain as it digs into your mind Lost in a dungeon, you run in the dark The only light you see is a fuse that burns in sparks It's hard to fight again When your hands are trapped by chains of life Hundreds of bats fly inside your belfry Biting pieces off your brain, it drives you insane An hungry jackals pack runs at your back So when you're dead and gone, they'll come and lick your bones You'll never touch the sky Cause cut wings cannot fly When everything is lost, you just think of losing yourself Dreams are all gone, like forgotten books on a dusty old shelf But suddenly a sail appears on the horizon A ray of hope that breaks the clouds of despair What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger The concrete wall is now just a curtain to tear You'll fall then rise again Just another ring of the chain When everything is lost, you've got to find the strenght in yourself Hold by your dreams, don't forget 'em alone on that dusty old shelf When everything is lost, you've got to find the strenght in yourself Hold by your dreams, don't forget 'em alone on that dusty shelf D'Ailleurs Originally recorded by Sortilège on the album "Metamorphose".
