Jesus Christ - Saviour Machine

 

You are the essence of a life that needs to pray 
You are the shadow of a man that bleeds away 
You are the hopes and fears that bind us to return 
You are the shattered dream that frightens us to burn 

Jesus Christ, vengeance is mine 
Jesus Christ, leave them behind 
Jesus Christ, vengeance is mine 
Jesus Christ, please, leave them to die 

You are the reason for the wars that plague the land 
You are the symbol for the cause in which we stand 
You are the one who sits there watching as they die 
You are the Son of man that listens as they cry 

Jesus Christ, vengeance is mine 
Jesus Christ, leave them behind 
Jesus Christ, vengeance is mine 
Jesus Christ, please, leave them to die 

Are you the man who said to turn the other cheek? 
Are you the one for this appears to be the weak? 
Are you to lift us from this silent found rebirth? 
Are you to take us from this stench that fills the earth? 

Jesus Christ, vengeance is mine 
Jesus Christ, leave them behind 
Jesus Christ, vengeance mine 
Jesus Christ, please, leave them to die 

 Bring them to life 

Without hate, without pain 
Without suffering insane 
Without death, without fire 
Without lies that feed the liar 
Without war, without games 
Without fear to take the blame 
Without fame, without power 
Without drugs that heal the coward 
Without violence, without rape 
Without sickness, without plagues 
Without judgment, without crime 
Without hope, without time 
Without two, and without three 
Without torture over belief 

Bring us love 
Let us see 
Set us free

Love Over Six Centuries - Eloy

I'll tell you who I am and whence I came, It's not going to be easy to explain My body has returned, my mind is all at sea Will you tell me who you are and where we're meant to be? She answers in a gentle, lilting style, Says little but speaks volumes with a smile With a sparkle in her eye, she takes me by the hand 'Let us take a walk, I'll answer all I can.' Jamie: April, 1358...Paris...I don't understand any more... my name is Jamie...and mine is a strange story... one which even I don't fully understand...my father is a scientist... and he has been experimenting with time-eroding drugs... I was sitting in his workroom..it was late at night...and I was thinking... you know, about me and my future...I've just left school...and I don't know what I want to do...I must have somehow have taken the drug... and landed up here.   Jeanne: My name is Jeanne . . and let me tell you my story . . my father owns many acres around here ... which are fa...

Harvest Moon - Neil Young

Come a little bit closer Hear what I have to say Just like children sleeping We could dream this night away But there's a full moon rising Let's go dancing in the light We know where the music's playing Let's go out and feel the night Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon When we were strangers I watched you from afar When we were lovers I loved you with all my heart But now it's getting late And the moon is climbing high I want to celebrate See it shining in your eye Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon

Wake Me Up - Avicii

Feeling my way through the darkness Guided by a beating heart I can't tell where the journey will end But I know where to start They tell me I'm too young to understand They say I'm caught up in a dream Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes Well that's fine by me So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself And I didn't know I was lost I tried carrying the weight of the world But I only have two hands Hope I get the chance to travel the world But I don't have any plans Wish that I could stay forever this young Not afraid to close my eyes Life's a game made for everyone And love is the prize So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself And I didn't know I was lost Didn't know I was lost I didn't know I was lost I didn't know I was lost I didn't know
