| [00:09.01] |
|
| [00:17.38] |
In death, you face life with a child and a wife |
| [00:21.12] |
Who sleep-walks through your dreams into walls |
| [00:25.35] |
You’re a soldier of mercy, you’re cold and you curse |
| [00:28.75] |
“He who cannot be trusted must fall” |
| [00:31.94] |
|
| [00:32.82] |
Loneliness, tenderness, high society, notoriety |
| [00:48.67] |
You fight for the throne and you travel alone |
| [00:52.58] |
Unknown as you slowly sink |
| [00:57.47] |
And there’s no time to think |
| [01:06.27] |
|
| [01:10.50] |
In the Federal City you been blown and shown pity |
| [01:14.24] |
In secret, for pieces of change |
| [01:17.55] |
The empress attracts you but oppression distracts you |
| [01:21.36] |
And it makes you feel violent and strange |
| [01:24.29] |
|
| [01:25.24] |
Memory, ecstasy, tyranny, hypocrisy |
| [01:39.94] |
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss |
| [01:44.48] |
In the valley of the missing link |
| [01:49.01] |
And you have no time to think |
| [01:51.13] |
|
| [02:02.08] |
Judges will haunt you, the country priestess will want you |
| [02:03.68] |
Her worst is better than best |
| [02:08.88] |
I’ve seen all these decoys through a set of deep turquoise eyes |
| [02:14.65] |
And I feel so depressed |
| [02:16.86] |
|
| [02:18.88] |
China doll, alcohol, duality, mortality |
| [02:32.43] |
Mercury rules you and destiny fools you |
| [02:36.19] |
Like the plague, with a dangerous wink |
| [02:40.86] |
And there’s no time to think |
| [02:42.99] |
|
| [02:54.35] |
Your conscience betrayed you when some tyrant waylaid you |
| [02:57.19] |
Where the lion lies down with the lamb |
| [03:01.40] |
I’d have paid off the traitor and killed him much later |
| [03:05.00] |
But that’s just the way that I am |
| [03:07.82] |
|
| [03:08.77] |
Paradise, sacrifice, mortality, reality |
| [03:23.91] |
But the magician is quicker and his game |
| [03:27.40] |
Is much thicker than blood and blacker than ink |
| [03:32.63] |
And there’s no time to think |
| [03:37.92] |
|
| [03:46.63] |
Anger and jealousy’s all that he sells us |
| [03:52.04] |
He’s content when you’re under his thumb |
| [03:54.00] |
Madmen oppose him, but your kindness throws him |
| [03:56.77] |
To survive it you play deaf and dumb |
| [03:59.78] |
|
| [04:00.65] |
Equality, liberty, humility, simplicity |
| [04:16.21] |
You glance through the mirror and there’s eyes staring clear |
| [04:22.44] |
At the back of your head as you drink |
| [04:24.52] |
And there’s no time to think |
| [04:28.19] |
|
| [04:38.25] |
Warlords of sorrow and queens of tomorrow |
| [04:40.69] |
Will offer their heads for a prayer |
| [04:44.23] |
You can’t find no salvation, you have no expectations |
| [04:48.01] |
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere |
| [04:50.60] |
|
| [04:52.03] |
Mercury, gravity, nobility, humility |
| [05:07.33] |
You know you can’t keep her and the water gets deeper |
| [05:11.11] |
That is leading you onto the brink |
| [05:15.59] |
But there’s no time to think |
| [05:17.74] |
|
| [05:28.54] |
You’ve murdered your vanity, buried your sanity |
| [05:31.75] |
For pleasure you must now resist |
| [05:35.54] |
Lovers obey you but they cannot sway you |
| [05:39.24] |
They’re not even sure you exist |
| [05:41.78] |
|
| [05:43.26] |
Socialism, hypnotism, patriotism, materialism |
| [05:58.32] |
Fools making laws for the breaking of jaws |
| [06:01.93] |
And the sound of the keys as they clink |
| [06:06.83] |
But there’s no time to think |
| [06:08.49] |
|
| [06:19.95] |
The bridge that you travel on goes to the Babylon girl |
| [06:24.16] |
With the rose in her hair |
| [06:26.48] |
Starlight in the East and you’re finally released |
| [06:29.91] |
You’re stranded but with nothing to share |
| [06:32.61] |
|
| [06:33.92] |
Loyalty, unity, epitome, rigidity |
| [06:48.72] |
You turn around for one real last glimpse of Camille |
| [06:52.57] |
’Neath the moon shinin’ bloody and pink |
| [06:55.87] |
And there’s no time to think |
| [06:59.37] |
|
| [07:11.57] |
Bullets can harm you and death can disarm you |
| [07:13.23] |
But no, you will not be deceived |
| [07:17.09] |
Stripped of all virtue as you crawl through the dirt |
| [07:20.36] |
You can give but you cannot receive |
| [07:22.88] |
|
| [07:24.58] |
No time to choose when the truth must die |
| [07:32.19] |
No time to lose or say goodbye |
| [07:39.29] |
No time to prepare for the victim that’s there |
| [07:43.48] |
No time to suffer or blink |
| [07:49.72] |
And no time to think |
| [07:52.66] |
|
| [07:56.38] |
|
| [08:11.35] |
