Shady Lady 03:28
Well, she’s been so mean to me since I can remember... It all started when I was a kid. Oh! Since then I can’t live peacefully. No! The first time I felt her in my bones The first time I stared at the sun I couldn’t see the light beams shining just my shadow crawling behind. Why me? Why did she choose me? Why me? Since then I had little choice but to play to her dire game. No mercy, no rules, no shame. Shady lady will be your name One lie to live. Just necessary. I need to know… Why me? Day after day I try to escape from her But, where to go? There's no way. Where to go? Where to go? Why me? Where to go? Where to go? Why did she choose me? Where to go? Where to go? Why me? Where to go? Where to go? Well, she is still mean to me. She chases me like I'm handsome. Sometimes I feel I should have hope but then she hugs me and the bubble explodes. I don’t want you to think badly of me. I also see the bright side of things. You can’t fall, you can’t lose, you can’t quit when you’re not meant to win Well I'm just trying to live without this shadow behind. And I tried And I tried And I tried But there ain’t no escape for me.

Each morning, when I wake up There’s just one thought in my mind I need to go again down to the mine cause, I’m trying, I’m trying to find something I’ve never seen No matter you don't know now what I mean. I'll keep trying. I'll keep trying. So I made up my mind to go everyday down this hole. I will work my fingers to the bone to get those things I do not know That is why I am looking for gold. So many times, I faced floods, I faced fires dragged my body into the mire. no matter what happens, stronger is my desire… Stronger is my desire! So, long time ago, 
I left my gal, I left my job, and I sold my soul. And I picked, dug, work so hard then I needed my soul back from dawn to dusk… I need it back! from dawn to dusk deep into the ground! From where the sun don't ever shine I will sing this song of mine breaking up stones until I die. Cause I do need to kill this woe that is why I am looking for gold! looking for gold! One lucky day, I saw something shiny there, among the dirt And I thought the search was over and I'd finally be free… so When I tried to bite the nugget to check if it was the real deal... that useless thing didn't work for me. I'll keep doing my kind of swing. Between the walls of my own grave, I will be free free of any rotten burden, of what they insist on calling sins. Yeah! And that's when I realized what I'm just meant to be I'll search until my last day comes. That is my victory. Yeah! Rocks falling, falling, falling down! Maybe I'll die here! Oooh! Yeeeah! I won't pray! I won't pray! From where the sun don't ever shine I will sing this song of mine things I’m longing for I cannot find Oh! Oh! My knees are saying I’m getting old bound to break my back looking for gold, looking for gold, looking for gold, looking for gold! Yeah!

Tonight, the sky is bleeding. The sun is waiting to stab my mind. Alone in the wastelands, I don't know where to go or where I am. Some thoughts are trying to make me drown 'cause I'm lost here in the ruins and I'm down. Those demons are after me, on the prowl. When weakness comes over me I feel 'em around. They are desert sirens that sing to you, to go to death. They sing to you, to go to death. That's not for me. I'm not going. I won't go. No! This is the Desert Sirens’ song. Their songs are trying to make me go. When desert sirens sing to me I don't feel alone. So, take me. I won't feel pain when all your claws are in me, the pleasure will be mine. I don't know how to say that I've been trapped by myself. I'm trying to save myself. This is why I have to say Their songs are trying to make me go. When desert sirens sing to me I don't feel alone. So, take me. I won't feel unsafe. When all your claws are in me, the pleasure will be mine.

I'm not a great speaker, I don't have a great speech, so here I have a great story that could be easy to sing. I rode all summer. I rode every night. I was looking for a way to go but I always found a trap. I don't know the ocean I don't know the sea. And then I came to realize: There was a place to go. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the rider crosses through the road. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the Night Wind blows. He came through the desert, from where life is death and when he looked at me I knew that I would do the same. So, I got to the ocean, I got to the sea. And then, my friend, I realized the lie in which we had believed. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the rider crosses through the road. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the Night Wind blows. So, I went to the mountains. I crossed all the seas when the moonlight was shining for me. I slept in the deserts enjoying the light of my fire. And then, I was enlightened cause I understood, understood we are made out of dust. When your stone is the flame in the dark you know you have arrived. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the rider crosses through the road. There's something on the roads we don't know when... when the Night Wind blows. There's something on the roads we don't know when the rider crosses through the road. There's something on the roads we don't know oh.. when... the Night Wind blows.

The sun is going down and I’m still at work. Like everyday I’m wiped out I never see the sun. I don’t really suffer. I’m used to it. This is what I have to do to build my dreams. This gloomy feeling I can’t get rid of. It’s always too late when I get off. But I think now I’m dreaming I’m never gonna work It's over it's over for me. I'll never enslave myself again. Oh no! I never will! It's over, it's over for me. Although I realize I work my life away. Nothing changes cause I’m not brave. It seems I've been brought up to dig my own grave. I think I will take myself a day. Ain’t gonna work tomorrow! ain’t gonna work today! It’s over, it’s over for me! I'll never enslave myself again. Oh, no! I never will! It's over, it's over for me! And how can I live a life without dreaming about how it feels to be alive? It's over for me I'll never be a slave. Not anymore, not anymore, It’s over for me. And how can I live a life without dreaming about how it feels to be alive? It's over for me I'll never be a slave not anymore! Not anymore. It’s over for me. I’ll never be a slave! Not anymore! Ain’t gonna work tomorrow, ain’t gonna work today! It’s over it’s over for me. I'll never enslave myself again. Oh no! I never will! It's over it's over for me.

I always tried to be good But I always fail And I don’t know why, But I always fail . I’m not joking. Look at me, I’m lying on the ground. ‘Cause I’m nearly dead. I am nearly there. Blood is flowing can hardly breathe and here I am quitting my skin. I’m seeing my life flash before my eyes and I’m proud of all my sins. I always tried to fit in, to be the way I'm supposed to be but I was born under a star, cursed from the start.

 I’m not joking. Look at me, I’m lying on the dirty ground! ‘Cause I’m nearly dead. I am nearly there. Blood is flowing can hardly breathe and here I am Quitting my skin I’m seeing my life flash before my eyes and I’m proud of all my sins, and I’m proud of all my sins, and I’m proud of all my sins. I always tried to be good but I always, always fail. Blood is flowing can hardly breathe and here I am Quitting my skin I’m seeing my life flash before my eyes and I’m proud of all my sins. Blood is flowing can hardly breathe and here I am Quitting my skin I’m seeing my life flash before my eyes and I’m proud of all my sins

There's something i've been waiting for. I had resigned myself to believing but now it's coming with the fire of a thousand suns. Now it's time. I won't wait no more. Fire! Fire! Fire! there's fire in my heart. ‘cause now I know I was right. Oh! Ooooh! Demons! Demons! Demons! I’ll fight you with my own hands! There's no chance you can hide. No! I wasn't sleeping at the break of dawn at first I thought it was an illusion but this is what I've waited for (a long long time). It was a bird flying in the yard. Tears! Tears! Tears! Let me see it fly! ‘Cause I need to know where it goes. Freeman! Freeman! Freeman! Follow it to death! ‘Cause death is not what you thought! Now i'm ready you can take me home.

Let me tell you what I've seen today. Let me tell you why I'm blue today. I was tired the day was tough. Streets were empty, I decided to walk. Oh! What a dark cold night! Got shivers down my spine! Sounds from darkness stabbed my back. Behind the corner I found a trap. That's our hometown, that's our life. We are enslaved so you best be glad. Oh! What a dark cold life! Got shivers down my spine! So, Is there anywhere to go? There's nowhere else to go. And what if there is no place to run? There's no place to run. So, are we enslaved till we die? Yes indeed, Sry! And what if there is something we can do? There's nothing we can do. There's no way, there's no way, there's no way to run away. The roads are closed so you forget, forget your life, you're just a slave. There's no way, there's no way, there's no way to run away. The roads are closed so you forget, forget your life, you're just a slave. So now I realize, that I've been wasting my entire life. And when you feel that you may start to see the light. Let me tell you what I've seen today. Let me tell you why I'm blue today. There's no way, there's no way, there's no way to run away. The chains are broken to forget, forget you're just a slave.

Wendy 02:52
There’s something I’ll never know how come we never met before but maybe some things are best left to wonder. I should learn to leave it alone! Oh Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! You are the one who drives me crazy It was a sad sunny day. the church was plenty full and death rides away! And then I saw her and I thought she was an angel I never felt like this before! Oh, Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! You are the one who drives me crazy Ohh! And she was there. I met her in a funeral she was the prettiest gal and now I knoww It was her! Oh, It was her! As I said, now I know I’m sure I never felt like this before. There was a time I was dead And now I’m alive again! Oh, Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! You’re the one who drives me crazy! ‘Cause you’re the only one who keeps my heart beating. I never felt like this before. Oh, Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! You’re the one who drives me crazy! Oh, Wendy! Wendy! Wendy! 
You are the one cause there’s no "maybe".

Tipsy Waltz 05:09
Close to the desert, we live in the slums. We are the misfits, we are the pariahs, living among the dust. We work for the rulers, singing our worksongs, dying in their hands. Our blood, our sweat, our hands, our tears, have built this town. Comrades, we are the light of these wastelands, singing the song of the outcasts to liberate our hearts. Comrades, let's sing together against the pain, singing the silence of being enslaved, someday we'll reach the stars. Be careful, every night, when the moon lights up the sky and death rides in the mist. When you choose to roll the dice, and the devil is by your side, Oh friend! You are the next. So, you look into his eyes and you wait while you deny the fate you have embraced. Then my friend you realize there's no devil by your side just you, singing with us. Comrade, we are the light of these wastelands, singing the song of the outcasts to liberate our hearts. Comrade, let's sing together against the pain, singing the silence of being enslaved, someday we'll reach the stars. And you laugh, and you cry, and you sing, and you curse by our side. And you grow, and you dance, and you feel, and you die by our side, by our side. Just remember this again we're together on this train we are nothing but light in despair. So, we are getting to the end, the last waltz together friend. We are nothing but dust in the air. Comrades, we are the light of these wastelands, singing the song of the outcasts to liberate our hearts. Comrades, let's sing together against the pain, singing the silence of being enslaved, someday we'll reach the stars.

Alone 04:46
I've always needed their lies. Oh boy! I trusted them all! Oh! Life was easy Now I know I was blind. He tried to tell me, He tried to warn me That we're deceived. Oh, friend! You were so right. Now I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone! I'm alone, I feel so alone. I'm sick of this. I'm gonna cross the border after you. I don't care… if I die. They took you away from me Now I'm gonna go find you Or I will die trying. Maybe I will survive out of this town. And why believe me? Or why deny him? He just warned us about their lies. And why believe me? Or why deny me? Cause he was killed in the sand. Now I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone! Cause he, he was killed beyond the border. I was blind. I was blind. I was blinded by their lies. Wait for me, please. I won't let you down. We've been deceived. We were blind. Now it's over. We need to fight against ‘em. to prevail to prevail against their lies. Otherwise, we are alone. We are alone against their lies. Cause they, they wanna kill us beyond the border. We are blind, we are all blinded! We are lost, If we’re blinded by their lies.
