01. "Changes" by David Bowie & Butterfly Boucher

Oh yeah
Mm
Still don’t know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought I’d got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I’ve never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I’m much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
So the days float through my eyes
But stil the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They’re quite aware of what they’re going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Where’s your shame
You’ve left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can’t trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Ah changes are taking the pace I’m going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Oh, look out you rock ’n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now you’re gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can’t trace time

02. "Planet Hell" by Nightwish

Denying the lying
A million children fighting
For lives in strife
For hope beyond the horizon

A dead world
A dark path
Not even crossroads to choose from
All the bloodred
Carpets before me
Behold this fair creation of God

My only wish to leave behind
All the days of the Earth
An everyday hell of my kingdom come

The 1st rock thrown again
Welcome to hell, little Saint
Mother Gaia in slaughter
Welcome to paradise, Soldier

My first cry neverending
All life is to fear for life
You fool, you wanderer
You challenged the gods and lost

Save yourself a penny for the ferryman
Save yourself and let them suffer
In hope
In love
This world ain't ready for The Ark
Mankind works in mysterious ways

03. "Maybe I'm Amazed" by Poe

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a girl and maybe I'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand

Maybe I'm a girl and maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a girl and maybe I'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand

Maybe I'm a girl and maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

04. "Closer" by Lacuna Coil

Want to get closer, in too deep
Where there is something I wish for I’ll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
I’ve got it all inside myself
Salvation you have preached is gone
No way, you can’t turn it around

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Falling apart
There’s nothing real
That will convince me to change but I’ll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
There is just nothing to betray
Salvation you have preached is gone
No way, you can’t turn it around

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

Looking for a higher ground
Searching for this something missed before
From a higher ground
Will I fall in a right direction?
(Higher, searching for more)

05. "Next 100 Years" by Bon Jovi

Time ain't nothing but time
It's a verse with no rhyme
Man, it all comes down to you

Change ain't nothing but change
Just the faces and the names
But you know we're gonna make it through

I'll believe
When you don't believe in anything

I'm gonna hold you 'til your hurt is gone
Be the shoulder that you're leaning on
I'll be standing here
For the next 100 years
If it all should end tonight
I'll know it was worth the fight
And we'll be standing here
For the next 100 years

I, when I think that I'm losing my mind
It all comes back to you

And you, you know that it's true
After all we've been through
There's nothing that I wouldn't do

Stand by me
And I would gladly give up everything

I'm gonna hold you 'til your hurt is gone
Be the shoulder that you're leaning on
I'll be standing here
For the next 100 years
If it all should end tonight
I'll know it was worth the fight
And we'll be standing here
For the next 100 years

I'm gonna hold you 'til your hurt is gone
Be the shoulder that you're leaning on
I'll be standing here
For the next 100 years
If it all should end tonight
I'll know it was worth the fight
And we'll be standing here
For the next 100 years

06. "Shine" by MR BIG

I never really feel quite right
I don't know why, all I know is there's something wrong
Every time I look at you, you seem so alive

Tell me how do you do it, walk me through it
I'm following every footstep

Baby on your own you take a conscious step
Do you wanna give it up?

But all I want is for you to SHINE
Shine down on me
Shine on this life that's burning out

I say a lot of things sometimes that don't come out right
And I act like I don't know why
I guess a reaction is all I was looking for

You looked through me, you really knew me like no one has EVER looked before

Baby on your own you take a cautious step
Do you wanna give it up?

But all I want is for you to SHINE
Shine down on me
Shine on this life that's burning out

I know, I know, girl you got something

SHINE (shine it on to me)
Shine down on me (I wanna feel it)
Shine on this life that's burning out

Baby on your own you take a cautious step
Do you wanna give it up?

But all I want is for you to SHINE
Shine down on me (just show me something)
Shine on this life that's burning out (you give me something that I never know)

Shine (it gonna kill me if you give something away)
Shine yeaaah (I wanna know what's going in on your mind)
Shine on this life that's burning out

07. "Strange Wind" by Poe

I hear you in my head
All of the things that you said
I'm listening again and again
'Cause I never used to think of you as a friend

Now I hear it in my head (My head that)
That strange wind that cries
It wakes me up inside (Inside)
That strange wind that cries
It makes me feel alive
See it in your eyes
That strange wind (Strange wind) that cries

I'm still here, thumbing through the book that you left
A hundred different symbols,
I always wondered why they meant
A circle is jagged, edged and crossed.
Holding little bits of the truth
Whatever I may be hiding
I think that I could show it to you (To you)

When I hear it in my head (My head that)
That strange wind that cries
It wakes me up inside (Inside)
That strange wind that cries
It makes me feel alive
See it in your eyes
That strange wind (Strange wind) that cries

Oh, I've got so much to tell you
I've been lonely, I've been wild
And when I see it in your eyes,
A wilder cry than even mine
I know something's hidden inside
Strange Wind That Cries

I hear you in my head

There it is again
That strange wind that cries
It breaks me up sometimes
That strange wind that cries
It makes me feel alive
See it in your eyes

That strange wind (Strange wind)
That strange wind (Strange wind that)
Cries

I hear you in my head
All of the things that you said
I'll be keeping all your secrets 'till the end
'Cause I'm getting used to
Thinking of you as a friend

Strange wind

08. "Just Call My Name (I'll Be There)" by Blackmore's Night

So many nights I sat here waiting
There were times I couldn’t go on
Still my heart was anticipating
It made me be strong
Made me hold on...

There were some calling me crazy
I’ve been accused of being naïve
But I don’t need no one to save me
Cause I got you, you make me believe

I’ll Be There in the night when you need me
Just call my name
I’ll be there close your eyes and you’ll see me
Just Call My Name

I don’t need to know the answers
I don’t want to understand
We were born to take the chances
I know the truth when you hold my hand...

I had waited a lifetime lost on the open sea
Praying for an angel to be sent to me

Now the night don’t last forever
Every moment is a song
Cause we face the night together
Something so right could never be wrong

09. "Solitary Ground" by Epica

Living at different places
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I'm losing the way
An ongoing madness has led me astray

My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead

In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground

I follow elusive paths
Oh, it seems they've been written in stone
And the door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back

I know that in me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
Or am I just wasting time?

10. "Your Rain" by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn

Dancing alone again, again
The rain falling.
Only the scent of you remains to dance with me.
Nobody showed me how to return the love you give to me.
Mom never hugged me.
Dad loves a stranger more than me.

I never wanted to ever bring you down.
All that I need are some simple loving words.

You touched my body once, it burns me still softly.
Never forget never again we'll be. I cried.

Out of my head and I don't what I found.
Over and over I feel it break me down.

On the sidewalk of the city.
Are my screams just a whisper?
Busy people going nowhere.
See me soak in the rain.
No compassion, nothing matters.
My resistence is waning
Like a flower in the basement waiting for a lonely death.

Out of my head and I don't what I found.
Over and over I feel it break me down.

On the sidewalk of the city.
Are my screams just a whisper?
Busy people going nowhere.
See me soak in the rain.
No compassion, nothing matters.
My resistence is waning
Like a flower in the basement waiting for a lonely death.

11. "Fight the Good Fight" by Triumph

The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long
Feels like we're running out of time
Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong
You got to read between the lines

Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay

The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve
I keep my magic in my heart

Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do

Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
It's your only way

All your life you've been waiting for your chance
Where you'll fit into the plan
But you're the master of your own destiny
So give and take the best that you can

You think a little more money will buy your soul some rest
You'd better think of something else instead
You're so afraid of being honest with yourself
You'd better take a look inside your head

Nothing is easy, nothing good is free
But I can tell you where to start
Take a look inside your heart
There's an answer in your heart

Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
It's your only way

12. "The End of Every Story" by Xandria

Do you know we reached somehow the end of every story
Welcome to the final show it´s here in all its glory

All we´ve been, all we see was born so long ago
In times of joy and of tears, we carried on
The winds were still, did no harm to our shores
But the seed´s already sewn, now the storm will come

Over and over we´re downcast
Only, it´s only a dark past

Do you know we reached somehow the end of every story
Welcome to the final show it´s here in all its glory
You can run but all you flee is a life of sorrow
Time will tell what kind of fate will be waiting for us now

Built on sand by our hands were all of our homes
Turn around, realize this world is not our own
So we have to succumb to the call of fate
Hear it now, it leads us down to future´s open gate

Falling we´re falling with closed eyes
Losing now losing our old disguise

Do you know we reached somehow the end of every story
Welcome to the final show it´s here in all its glory
You can run but all you flee is a life of sorrow
Time will tell what kind of fate will be waiting for us now

13. "Elevation" by U2

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here

At the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse
You elevate my soul

I've got no self control
Been living like a mole now
Going down, excavation
I and I, in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation

A star
Lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you can educate my mind

Explain all these controls
Can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation

I and I
In the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation

Love
Lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you

A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation

I and I
In the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation

Elevation
Elevation
Elevation
Elevation

14. "Protège Moi" by Placebo

FRENCH:
C'est le malaise du moment
L'épidémie qui s'étend
La fête est finie on descend
Les pensées qui glacent la raison

Paupières baissées, visage gris
Surgissent les fantômes de notre lit
On ouvre le loquet de la grille
Du taudit qu'on appelle maison

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi

Sommes nous les jouets du destin
Souviens toi des moments divins
Planants, éclatés au matin
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seul

Perdus les rêves de s'aimer
Le temps où on avait rien fait
Il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seul

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi de mes désirs
Protège-moi, protège-moi

Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me from what I want (Protège-moi, protège-moi)
Protect me
Protect me
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me
Protect me, protège-moi

ENGLISH:
It's the disease of the age,
An epidemic that spreads,
The party is over and we descend,
The thoughts that freeze the mind.

Lowered eyes and gray faces,
The ghosts of our past awaken;
We open the latch on the gate
Of the slum that we call home.

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me

Are we the playthings of fate
Remember those divine moments
We'd laugh and party until dawn
And now we are all alone.

Dreams of happiness lost,
The time we have done nothing (Dreams of innocence gone)
We're left with a lifetime to cry,
And now we are all alone.

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me, protect me
Protect me from my desire
Protect me, protect me

Protect me from what I want (Protect me, protect me)
Protect me from what I want (Protect me, protect me)
Protect me from what I want (Protect me, protect me)
Protect me
Protect me
Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me
Protect me, protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me
Protect me, protect me.

15. "Sleeping Sun" by Nightwish

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest

For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go

Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there's nothing left to say

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

I wish for this night-time
to last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you
