No Salvation Turn the tide, look around There's a purpose in the sound In the voice, be yourself Put your feet on the ground Choose your side, it's the right Always sealed by your fate Time is short, winding down But it's never too late Make a point, loud and clear Show the world what you feel Don't give up, never stop Boy, it seems so unreal Use your heart, use your mind Get it into control It's a curse, it's the loss Of your body and soul As gods we shaped the world around We built it up and broke it down Who's gonna to save us now? From heaven above but not god sent We walk the earth to bring the end But there is no salvation.

We walk the earth to bring the end But there is no salvation But there is no salvation As gods we shaped the world around We built it up and broke it down Who's gonna save us now? From heaven above but not content We walk the earth to bring the end But there is no salvation As gods we shaped the world around We built it up and broke it down Who's gonna save us now? From heaven above but not god sent We walk the earth to bring the end But there is no salvation Mr.42 2013 Page 4 of 14
Trial and Error On days like this when all seems fine And everything's gonna be alright There's just one thing you have to discover You reached the top keep climbing high Up to the furthest point of sky But blind ambition leads to nowhere Who says this life is worth the price When will you ever realize What was wrong and what is right You won't find the answer It feels like time's not on your side You can run but you can't hide Now you need some good advice But you won't find the answer Time passes by and you are afraid Everything seems lost and it's much too late Maybe this life has nothing more to offer You reached the goal but can't deny You are not really satisfied But in the end you must learn to suffer Who says this life is worth the price When will you ever realize What was wrong and what is right You won't find the answer It feels like time's not on your side You can run but you can't hide Now you need some good advice But you won't find the answer Mr.42 2013 Page 5 of 14
Epiphany All attempts to end this sorrow Always tried and failed their way Never put off till tomorrow What you can do still today As you walk along, you wonder What to do to make things right? Every time you ask, I answer Try to get the balance right Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone Show me how to leave a mark Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone That's just what it's all about All efforts to solve the problem Always led to poor results Never try to change somebody Just because it fits your goals Every mistake makes you stronger Self-awareness paves your way Look ahead into your future See the light and praise the day! Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone Show me how to leave a mark Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone That's just what it's all about Don't be ashamed of what you are Just be yourself it's all that matters Don't be afraid of who you are But always walk ahead with pride Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone Show me how to leave a mark Turn the light on for the showdown Give me something pure in heart Bring the night on before our time's gone That's just what it's all about Mr.42 2013 Page 6 of 14
Quicksand I know that time is flying past Like the flow of sand in an hourglass I count the days there's much more to be done The sirens call a last salute but I can't hear A serpent caused the fall of man I don't believe A trojan horse in front of me I just can't see The smell of death is in the air but I can't breathe Too much surrounded by the dark Maybe sometimes we've gone too far Now I stay here I've never felt so wrong My body clock is ticking fast Ashes to ashes and dust to dust I close my eyes and wait for things to come The sirens call a last salute but I can't hear A serpent caused the fall of man I don't believe A trojan horse in front of me I just can't see The smell of death is in the air but I can't breathe The sirens call a last salute but I can't hear A serpent caused the fall of man I don't believe A trojan horse in front of me I just can't see The smell of death is in the air but I can't breathe Mr.42 2013 Page 7 of 14
Beg Your Pardon This is the day we've waited for so long We wished upon a star that it might never come So many times before we tried to get things done Sometimes we argued about it but it wasn't fun The brighter the sun the darker the shadows It's too late to run the damage is done How deep is our love how strong the emotions It all depends on much more than it's sum This is the time we have always tried To cut and run Since we had found each other We still keep working on So many years have passed We had our lessons learned Let's start all over again We know where we belong The brighter the sun the darker the shadows It's too late to run the damage is done How deep is our love how strong the emotions It all depends on much more than it's sum The brighter the sun the darker the shadows It's too late to run the damage is done How deep is our love how strong the emotions It all depends on much more than it's sum Mr.42 2013 Page 8 of 14
Game Over You want to play Let's start the game Remember just one thing Nothing stays the same Observe the rules First move is made You should not hesitate Before it seems too late Before my eyes I've been betrayed The deeds of selfish men I hate King for a day fool for decades Another tale another lie I'm on the brink of breaking point Stop making words up just to please But promises are made to keep Another turn another fail I guess it's time to end this game You've had the chance to proof me wrong There's no excuse for more mistakes You set the stone Don't let it go Maybe it's your last chance Of course you'll never know You attack Your masterstroke You'd better hurry up No compromise allowed Another tale another lie I'm on the brink of breaking point Stop making words up just to please But promises are made to keep Another turn another fail I guess it's time to end this game You've had the chance to proof me wrong There's no excuse for more mistakes Another tale another lie I'm on the brink of breaking point Stop making words up just to please But promises are made to keep Another turn another fail I guess it's time to end this game You've had the chance to proof me wrong There's no excuse for more mistakes Mr.42 2013 Page 9 of 14
Now or Never You were not much surprised As the rain began to fall I didn't realize how the time Has changed the past We have come so far We have sacrificed too much But at the end of it all It will only break our hearts It wasn't me who meant forever It's just the consequence of time The only chance is now or never Before it's time to wave goodbye You were not pleased about The situation went of course I never asked myself do we really want it more? We never got it right I would rather I had lost But I don't care about What's left if the curtain falls It wasn't me who meant forever It's just the consequence of time The only chance is now or never Before it's time to wave goodbye It wasn't me who meant forever It's just the consequence of time The only chance is now or never Before it's time to wave goodbye Mr.42 2013 Page 10 of 14

Steering Wheel It's like the path you wander Every step that you will take Leads to even more confusion There's no time to ponder Every move that you will make Slightly throws you off the track It's a demand for equality Are your intentions for real? You've never told that you wanna be The man behind the steering wheel Life is more that you expect Raise your head and don't regret Listen what a wise man said 'Cause what you give is what you get Life is more than just a word It gives you much more in return Poke not fire with a sword Life's too short just live and learn There's no need to wonder Every moment you will fail Keeps you trapped in an illusion It's how you deal with anger Every rule that you will break Burns the bridge that you once built It's a demand for equality Are your intentions for real? You've never told that you wanna be The man behind the steering wheel Life is more that you expect Raise your head and don't regret Listen what a wise man said 'Cause what you give is what you get Life is more than just a word It gives you much more in return Poke not fire with a sword Life's too short just live and learn Life is more that you expect Raise your head and don't regret Listen what a wise man said 'Cause what you give is what you get Life is more than just a word It gives you much more in return Poke not fire with a sword Life's too short just live and learn Mr.42 2013 Page 12 of 14
Stars Every single candlelight Sets a blaze if they burn together Every day and every night Standing side by side forever Divided we will fall united we will stand A revolution is at hand If we were stars glowing in the sky Illuminate the dark like a shining light If we were sparks flying in the wind Flashing in the night ignite the flame within Every mistakes we have made Show that we are only human Every fire which it takes Gives us hope at least for a moment For better or for worse Together we shall spend our time until the end If we were hearts beating in one chest Pounding like a drum holding our hands If we were words ending in a rhyme Written in a book to stand the test of time If we were stars glowing in the sky Illuminate the dark like a shining light If we were sparks flying in the wind Flashing in the night ignite the flame within If we were stars glowing in the sky Illuminate the dark like a shining light If we were sparks flying in the wind Flashing in the night ignite the flame within Mr.42 2013 Page 13 of 14
