Gypsy Heart

Verse:
You've seen that gypsy caravan
You've been a lonesome kind of man
And in the garden that feeling comes again
She made you drop unto your knees
Inside a crystal morning breeze
A delusion hidden from the start
Chorus:
You just got fooled by a gypsy heart
Verse:
She's got that look inside her eyes
That makes you numb and leaves you high
It's what she did to any guy before
She was a very strange addiction
Not that real but more like fiction
Her desires were tearing you apart
Chorus:
You just got fooled by a gypsy heart
Verse:
And now you move from town to town
To be the guardian of her crown
To be the jester at the court of our tribe
It was your heart that you have sold
And then she left you in the cold
Mystification, she's playing just her part
Verse:
Sometimes I walk along those streets
your face comes haunting me
And darkness dims the fire in your eyes
We used to kiss out here beneath the moon and
20.000 city lights
and knew we've reached the end
Chorus:
You just got fooled by a gypsy heart

Vertigo

Verse:
Come give me your tears
Come dance your fears away
Look over your shoulder
Look at the end of the day
Be mindful of the hidden beast
But don't look back too far
Cause we'll become unbreakable
In this cosmic carnival
Verse:
See how we move, See how we part
See how we melt together
When all the lights begin to fade
And the darkness hides our will
We've created our world
our own enchanted place
And for a moment in this play
we defy both time and space
Chorus:
We're gonna work it out
We're gonna play the fool
It's time to let it go
It's time to let it out
We're gonna work it out
We're gonna play the fool
We wanna stand beside the best of you
And now you're feeling low
And then you're screaming loud
In the center of our vertigo
Verse:
And now we're meeting on the ledge,
smell the fires burning high
Drop your mask, reveal your soul
beneath an open sky
Just like a ghost you fade away
Into the shadows wine
Leaving me right here alone
To hurt the next in line
Chorus:
We're gonna work it out
We're gonna play the fool
It's time to let it go
It's time to let it out
We're gonna work it out
We're gonna play the fool
We wanna stand beside the best of you
And now you're feeling low
And then you're screaming loud
In the center of our vertigo
Post-Chorus:
The eye of the storm is where I'm making my
stand
The eye of the storm is where your voice
becomes a whimper
The eye of the storm is where your voice
becomes a whisper
I can't hear, I can't hear, I can't hear your voice
anymore

Verse:
Wow! I‘m on the run
I got my boots right back on the ground
My hope has crumbled in my eyes
By things you put me through
And now I‘m leaving you for more
PreChorus:
I‘m gonna ride with the wind
I will be fire ice and stone
Once I walk out through this door
I‘m coming back no more
Chorus:
Cause I‘m a lonesome runner on the road to
yesterday
I‘m the free born child you‘d like to be
On the road to yesterday I‘ll find the answers
You spared in front of me
Verse:
Now It‘s time to see
You‘ve only been a strange kind of woman
Time slipped through my fingers
For a life thats never meant to last
PreChorus:
I‘m gonna ride with the wind
I will be fire ice and stone
Once I walk out through this door
I‘m coming back no more
Chorus:
Cause I‘m a lonesome runner on the road to
yesterday
I‘m the free born child you‘d like to be
On the road to yesterday I‘ll find the answers
You spared in front of me
PreChorus:
I'm coming back
I'm coming back
I'm coming back
Coming back no more

Be The Mountain
05:42

Verse:
Once I took a trip down in my mind beneath the
highway of the night
I walked beside a river and a mountain rising
high into the sky
Step by step the wilderness kept calling me
And lured me in its arms
I turned around to see the burning wastelands
of what used to be my life
Chorus:
The war we've left behind
It doesn't matter much at all
The war we've left behind
It doesn't matter anymore
Everything must be this way
Everything is as its meant to be
Verse:
All my life in troubled times I turned my head
towards the distant moon
I never saw the beasts - as its LIGHT has kept
them hidden in the dark
But then the moon had disappeared and hid
behind the mountain far away
I sat down at an old ash tree as creatures
whispered sweetly to my ears
Chorus:
The war we've left behind
It doesn't matter much at all
The war we've left behind
It doesn't matter anymore
Everything must be this way
Everything is as its meant to be
Epic Breakdown Madness:
Be the mountain
Be the sun
Be the river
Post-Chorus:
The morning light awakes me and the mountain
holds his guard above my head
I'm coming back to you but now I turn my face
towards the distant sun

Verse:
Yeah you're foolin, groovin, soothin, your soul
in pain
You're wreckin, slackin, crackin, on the chains
inside your brain
I played your losing game, the Red Queen of
my soul
Now I'm the wand'rer, the seeker, the silent
preacher
I'm the lone wolfs broken dream
Bridge:
All right now
All right yeah
Verse (Bass & Drums):
I was just a fool
Beneath the summer moon
I came and conquered ev'ry city
And then you came along
My soul was filled with fire
Blood is boiling in my veins
A poison deep within your eyes
My mind ascending to the sky
Chorus:
I'm a freedom lovin man
A freedom lovin man
I'm a freedom lovin man
Yes I'm a freedom lovin man
Verse:
Yeah you're foolin, groovin, soothin, your soul
in pain
You're wreckin, slackin, crackin, on the chains
inside your brain
We'll fly at higher game, the gamblers on the
loose
and I'm the wand'rer, the seeker, the silent
preacher
I'm the lone wolf on the hunt
Chorus:
I'm a freedom lovin man
A freedom lovin man
I'm a freedom lovin man
Yes I'm a freedom lovin man
Chorus:
I'm a freedom lovin man
A freedom lovin man
I'm a freedom lovin man
Yes I'm a freedom lovin man
