Miracle Something went wrong I don't know why and how strong It already has pulled me down onto the ground Loss of control I'm tumbling around I don't know really what happened to me And as I opened my eyes (it's like a miracle) Things became more clearer inside (first seems invisible) The truth hurts more than misery (almost inconceivable) But for a moment I felt free (and then familiarly) I'm searching in vain For responses I've lost In earlier times when I still knew whom I could trust The truth before eyes And the mirror in the hand I place myself the question about the sense And as I opened my eyes (it's like a miracle) Things became more clearer inside (first seems invisible) The truth hurts more than misery (almost inconceivable) But for a moment I felt free (and then familiarly) How many wonders we'll still see (nothing seems like before) How long we'll be able to believe (there is always hope) And how much time will pass us by (we are waiting for) Until the moment if we die (together, forever) Mr.42 2003 Page 3 of 13
Watching Over You You move in circles Around a darken place Locked up in a cage Of frozen identity Lost in deception Of transferred memories Disturbed perception Real confused reality Trapped in a nightmare Waiting for release Drowned in own despair Longing for security Still alive in distance From the place of being, Far beyond existence, Captivated in a dream. You're falling deeper into sleep And nothing seems like it should be The only thing that I can do Is watching over you Paralysed emotions Sudden stroke of destiny No one knows the answer Who created our griefs Falling in a black hole Deeper into misery Find yourself in emptiness Nothing seems eternally Finally forgotten In the great beyond All attempt seems futile Everything goes wrong Still alive in distance From the place of being Far beyond existence Captivated in a dream You're falling deeper into sleep Mr.42 2003 Page 4 of 13
And nothing seems like it should be The only thing that I can do Is watching over you Mr.42 2003 Page 5 of 13
Overkill Just another act of crime Thousands of innocent lives had to die The fear and the fright are spreading around Now we are standing on a trembling ground The silence clouded by a veil Corrosive dust turns the day into night The biting smoke just dims my eyes There is nothing left to hide behind We are the suffering of hell Caused by a terrible overkill We were touched by the darkness and will always to remind To the crucial day as the humanity died Flames of fire are rising high Down-falling wreckage from the sky These attack against our faith and trust Earns deepest contempt and disgust Reasons are not to be explained I am so sorry and ashamed It's in our nature to destroy we may not do it justify We are the suffering of hell Caused by a terrible overkill We were touched by the darkness and will always to remind To the crucial day as the humanity died Mr.42 2003 Page 6 of 13
Do You Feel? My emotions are not strong enough to express what I feel, And in my mind I wish I could to explain this never-ending fear Lost in my thoughts, I walk around looking for the truth Probably it was not in vain, because now I know I miss you Do you feel the light in the sparkling sun, which shines down on you? Do you remember the time, when we fell in love and everything meant new? Do you feel the time, makes the world go around and nothing could stop it all? Do you see the stripes, reflecting in the sky from the stars high above? Slowly I lose my faith in hope 'cause nobody understand That I only like to protect you from any circumstance All my efforts remained without result to show you I repent And I will promise to do everything that it takes a happy end Mr.42 2003 Page 7 of 13
The Essence of Mind Time is moving faster than your thoughts Of one moment to the other hand without cause Unknown destination seems predetermined You are seeking for an answer where it ends It's just a simulation, all memories fade away Trapped in repeating time loop, nothing will remain This is a new consciousness, subjection of mankind Keep your eternal secret, what's the essence of mind Ignore all false promises they've made Clean your soul from stupid minds try to awake Running through an labyrinth of fear It doesn't matter what you want or what you feel It's just a simulation, all memories fade away Trapped in repeating time loop, nothing will remain This is a new consciousness, subjection of mankind Keep your eternal secret, what's the essence of mind Mr.42 2003 Page 8 of 13

Secrets I have found the reason The reason for the pain As long as nothing changes We have to take the blame I have found the answer For what we are looking for Why all these things are happen Which we try to ignore Secrets; what's the truth behind? There's nothing we can really explain I don't know, if we waste our time To understand our real emotions I believe in strange things like these To find the hiding place of our stolen memories "I want you. I've always wanted you. We all do. They're all here. Everyone who's died. Everyone who's responsible. It's your turn." I have found a remedy, a means to heal the disease To alleviate our injuries and to uncover all intrigues It's an illusion; from there it seems no escape The only possibility is to awake from our dreams Secrets; what's the truth behind? There's nothing we can really explain I don't know, if we waste our time To understand our real emotions I believe in strange things like these To find the hiding place of our stolen memories Mr.42 2003 Page 10 of 13
Wasteland Suddenly came from somewhere A threatening storm of dreadful fear This slowly rising became fast More critical and dangerous It filled the air with dust and dirt And swallowed the light from the earth The sky stands under burning fires Spread the age of dark empires See the tears in my eyes Take a look to the skies There's nothing to prevent We are waiting for the end Our world is dying Mother earth is crying There's nothing to prevent We are waiting for the end Devastated landscapes everywhere Breathe contaminated air Feel and taste the acid rain Falling down, increasing pain Last days of the whole mankind Senseless race against the time In a world without a chance Where nothing still remains Mr.42 2003 Page 11 of 13
The Edge of Life Fragments of a broken time Tells a story of decline Nothing ventured, nothing gained It is always just the same When the clouds covered the sky And you're tired of this life Self compassion is the wrong way If there's somewhere a last spark of hope Change your opinion about things which you don't know I wish it would be like in former times When you filled the area with light If there is a chance to recognize the blame Try to imagine how you realize the aim You can't ignore there's a truth behind That followed us until the end of time All things come to those who wait Do your best and keep the faith Pictures falling out of frame Build the parts up once again When the moonlight's shining bright Whispers echoing in the night You will see what is to be done Mr.42 2003 Page 12 of 13
Paradise Slowly we are moving into darkness Straight ahead towards the setting sun On the road of our redemption We are prepared to bringing out the guns Most we are hiding in the shadows Fading traces to protect our skin No understanding for other opinions 'Cause we are living in a world of sin Such a silent night Where angels don't need to fear and to hide Nothing can stop us we are guided by light This place seems to be paradise We are the hunted without mercy Lost in aggression and despair But this makes us only stronger To resist all the hate and fear Mr.42 2003 Page 13 of 13
