Dream Within A Dream

all that we see or seem
is but a dream within a dream

take this kiss upon the brow
and in parting from you now
this much let me avow
you are not wrong who deemed
that my days have been a dream
yet if hope has flown away
in a night, in a day, in a vision, or a memory
is it therefore the less gone?
all that we see or seem
is but a dream within a dream

I stand amid the roar
of the surf tormented shore
and I hold within my hands
grains of golden sand
how few yet how they creep
through my fingers to the deep
while I weep, while I weep
oh god can I not grasp them with a tighter clasp
oh god can I not save one from the pitiless wave
is all that we see or seem
but a dream within a dream

The Murder of Love

I've, I've been a victim of your love
like many before, so many before
You, you strangled me with all your charms
I yearned for more, I'm yearning for more

I'm charging you with murder
the fire of love's dying down
but in the face of the verdict
I'm feeling all jealousy drown
plead for mercy

You, you've been convicted by a kiss
you share too much, you share too much
I, I was a witness of your crime
Now I'm the judge, I am the judge

I'm charging you with murder
the fire of love's dying down
but in the face of the verdict
I'm feeling all jealousy drown
plead for mercy

I'm charging you with murder
the fire of love's dying down
but in the face of the verdict
I'm feeling all jealousy drown
I'm charging you with murder
the fire of love's dying down
but in the face of the verdict
I'm feeling all jealousy drown
I'm charging you with murder
the fire of love's dying down
but in the face of ....

Duel

Eye to eye stand winners and losers
hurt by envy, cut by greed
face to face with their own disillusion
the scars of old romances still on their cheeks
and when blow by blow the passion dies sweet little death
just have been lies the memories of gone by time
would still recall the lie

the first cut won't hurt at all
the second only makes you wonder
the third will have you on your knees
you start bleeding I start screaming

it's too late the decision is made by fate
time to prove what forever should last
whose feelings are so true as to stand the test
whose demands are so strong as to parry all attempts
and when blow by blow the passion dies sweet little death
just have been lies the memories of gone by time
would still recall the lie

the first cut won't hurt at all
the second only makes you wonder
the third will have you on your knees
you start bleeding I start screaming

the first cut won't hurt at all
the second only makes you wonder
the third will have you on your knees
you start bleeding I start screaming
the first cut won't hurt at all
the second only makes you wonder
the third will have you on your knees
you start bleeding I start screaming
the first cut won't hurt at all
the second only makes you wonder
the third will leave you on your knees
you start bleeding I start screaming

Propaganda!

on ? legs we walk in line
a calm but steady flow
accompanied by loud commands
our strength is running low
another hope feeds another dream
another truth installed by the machine
a secret wish the marrying of lies
today you find is true what common sense denies
rotating wheels of destiny inflame the city lights
machines call out for followers far out into the night
the calls of the machines drowning in the steam
another hope feeds another dream
another truth installed by the machine
a secret wish the marrying of lies
today you find is true what common sense denies

the calls of the machine
drowning in the steam
on childs legs we walk on by
a calm but steady flow
our strength is running low
another hope
another dream
another truth
installed by the machine

Sorry for Laughing

it took ten years to realize
why the angel stopped crying
when you sail on down the lane
your happy smile, your funny name
it's so hopeless to define
when you jump to close the blinds
you know I'd help you if I could but
both my arms are made of wood
I just don't mean the things that I say
it's only cause you're made that way
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening

when we grooved on into town
Charles Atlas
stopped to frown
cause he's not made like me and you
just can't do the things we do
i'm not being mean so don't take it hard
when I ask you to run round the yard
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening

at times like these you don't have to say
so sorry it turned out that way
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening
sorry for laughing
there's too much happening

Dr. Mabuse

Mabuse!
why does it hurt when my heart misses a beat

the man without shadow
promises you the world
tell him your dreams
and ? your needs
he's buying them all 
with cash

sell him your soul
sell him your soul
sell him your soul
never look back
never look back
sell him your soul
sell him your soul
never look back
never look back
never look back
sell him your soul

Mabuse!
he's devoted to the devil, fascinated by crime
glamorous death is is his destination
eternal passion his game

sell him your soul
sell him your soul
sell him your soul
never look back
never look back
sell him your soul
sell him your soul
never look back
never look back

Mabuse!
why does it hurt
why, why does it hurt

he's a satanic gambler, but you just withdrew
and you already lost the chance of your lifetime
so don't be a fool, don't be a fool
kein Zurueck fuer dich [no going back for you]
there's no way back

sell him your soul

?tssaprev galhcS ned zreH niem nnew [why does it hurt
se tzremhcs muraW why does it hurt
se tzremhcs muraW when my heart misses a beat?]

don't be a fool

never look back

The Chase

chasing after passing visions

chasing after passing visions
and traces buried by the tide

chasing after passing visions
and traces buried by the tide
hunting for the bygone picture
reviving phantoms of the past
hunting for a bygone picture
chasing after passing visions
of this magic of your touch
and traces buried by the tide
your secret smile, I can't forget
chasing after passing visions
we could turn back the pointers of the clock
and traces buried by the tide
oh if I could and if you would
