Open Your Eyes

Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
Have you ever been for sale ?
when your isms get smart
oh so selfish and mindless
with that comment in your eye

Do you think that you are hard ?
really harder than the other
man you're acting cold
if you are not in charge
Don't split your mentality
without thinking twice
your voice has got no reason
now is the time to face your lies

Open your eyes, open your mind
proud like a god don't pretend to be blind
trapped in yourself, break out instead
beat the machine that works in your head
Will you offer me some tricks
if I ever need them
would you go into that room
if I call 'em

Do you think that you are better
really better than the rest
realize there's a problem
I know that you can give your best
Have you ever had a dream?
or is life just a trip?
a trip without chances

Open your eyes, open your mind ...

Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
night and night you feel nothing
there's no way outside of my land

Open your eyes, open your mind ...

No Speech

O.K. Ready to take off
do it slow
I’m living on the bottom
I got to go
five little fingers
grabbing at the glass
gone, those days
now I’m running
up and down in my cage

Too late to defend, I’m buried - insane
don’t you know there’s more to life than to win
are you that kind of stereotype?
it’s no time, there’s no time
there’s nothing I could answer

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home

Put away your flashing stick
don’t try to get closer-through my head
give me a little bit more of your own
a little more, don’t wanna be
anybody’s clown

Too late to defend, I’m buried - insane
don’t you know there’s more to life than to win
are you that kind of stereotype ?
it’s no time, there’s no time
there’s nothing I could answer

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home

No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
No Speech
as long (as) I get nothing
but I want to get home
let me free, this is not my home

Big in Japan

Winter cityside
Crystal bits of snowflakes
all around my head and in the wind

I had no ilusions
That I'd ever find a glimps of summer's heatwaves in your eyes
You did what you did to me , now it's story I see
Here's my comeback on the road again
Things will happen while they can
I will wait here for my man tonight,
it's easy when you're big in Japan

You're big in Japan,
you're big in Japan,
you're big in Japan, inside.
You're big in Japan, and
then i'll sleep by your side and through the night,
Big in Japan, it's easy...

Neon on naked skin
Passing silhouettes of strange iluminated mannequins
Shall I stay here at the zoo
Or shall I go and cahange my point of view for other ugly scenes
You did what you did to me, now it's history I see...
Things will happen while they can
I will wait here my man tonight, it's easy when you're big in Japan

I'll be, you see the way
too late, too late...
You're big in Japan,
you're big in Japan,
you're big in Japan, inside.
You're big in Japan, and
then i'll sleep by your side and through the night,
Big in Japan, it's easy at night.
You're big in Japan, you're big in Japan, you're big in Japan, inside...
...you're big in Japan...
