[Inglés] Roentgen - 2004

01. Unexpected

Unexpected
Promises woven

Unexpected.
Through space and time the path unwinds
Leading me straight to you.

Unexpected.
Reaching across a moonlight square
We found each other's hands.

Unexpected.
Under the blessing of the stars
The life poured into us
To meet is so unexpected.


02. White Song

Breath.
Crisp and cleaning the winter air.
I dream of a world in a peaceful sleep.
Snow falling gracefully down.
Rejoice in winter's deep charm.
I can't wait.
I can't wait.

Freeze.
People gather around the fire.
I feel all the warmth that the cold inspire.
Frost covered tree tops are bright.
Shimmering silver tonight.
I can't wait.
I can't wait.

I hope snow will fall upon as soon
Everywhere.
The whole world veiled in white.
I'd be reset to face the seasons
Once again.

Yes on and on falls the snow
Like diamonds from the sky.

Our broken hearts-paint them white
Lead us into a wonderland
Pure as the snow-virgin white
A new beginning.

And i hope snow will fall upon as soon
Everywhere
The whole world veiled in white
I'd be reset to face the seasons
Once again.

03. Evergreen

I lie awake beside the window sill
like a flower in a vase
a moment caught in glass.

The rays of sunlight come and beckon me
to a sleepy dreamy haze
a sense of summer days.

If only i could stop the flow of time
turn the clock to yesterday
erasing all the pain.

I've only memories of happiness
such pleasure we have shared
i'd do it all again.

The scenery is evergreen
as buds turn into leaves, the colours live and breathe
The scenery is evergreen
your tears are falling silently.

So full of joy, you are a child of spring
with a beauty that is pure
an innocence endures.

You flow right through me like a medicine
bringing quiet to my soul
without you i'm not whole.

This scenery is evergreen.
I need you far too much, i long to feel your touch.
This scenery is evergreen.
You've always been so dear to me.

This scenery is evergreen.
It sorrows at the sight of seeing you so sad.
This scenery is evergreen.
I wish that i could dry your tears.

The bells have rung, the time has come,
i cannot find the words to say my last goodbye.
This scenery is evergreen.
You've always been so dear to me.


04. Oasis

This desert road's forever winding
It saps your strength - it has no exit
The drying wind
The burning sun
I'm tossing the burnt out engine aside.

The dizziness is taking over
Perhaps this snakebite's full of poison
Exhaustion's winning
I've no control
It's bringing me down

My fever's getting high
The God of Death is dancing
all around and around me
The sun and moon change places
it's a regular rat race, yeah
A welcoming oasis on the distant horizon
Mirage or genuine?
I'm feeling dizzy
I'm mesmerized

As I light my last cigarette
Divining my fate
That distant mirage
Should I go?
Or turn away?

So what's the answer?
My fever's getting high
The God of Death is dancing
all around and around me
The sun and moon change places
it's a regular rat race, yeah
A welcoming oasis on the distant horizon
Mirage or genuine?
I'm feeling dizzy
I'm mesmerized

The God of Death is dancing
all around and around me
The sun and moon change places
it's a regular rat race, yeah
A welcoming oasis on the distant horizon
Mirage or genuine?
I'm feeling dizzy
I'm mesmerized

05. A Drop of Colour

Confusion rules this shifting age
And uproar fills the town
My thoughts of you are drowning in the noise
How could you know?
Why should you know me?

You gently nourish my dry skin
A drop of colour saves me from
The fate I'm facing everyday
A single bloom piercing the snowdrift

How softly, the springtime breezes sing
How deeply, the distant mountain breathe
There are so many things to show to you

Oh why does hate bring forth more hate?
A long abandoned fruit
is hastening the process of decay
This country's starved, it's void of feeling

How softly, the springtime breezes sing
How deeply, the distant mountain breathe
There are so many things to show to you

One of these days

How softly, the springtime breezes sing
How deeply, the distant mountain breathe
There are so many things to show to you.

06. Shallow Sleep

I just saw you
Beyond the course of time
A room that we once shared
But my memory's a haze
Forgetting what was said

I gently held out my hand
And in that perfect moment
You disappeared - I lost you over again.

In a shallow sleep I dreamt I was seeing you
Just how I remembered
Brimming with tenderness
And somewhere in the calm
A feeling that nothing had ever changed
Your presence close beside me till I wake.

I just saw you
A moment far too brief
Before the daylight came
But my heart is beating fast
Perhaps we'll meet again.

In a shallow sleep I dreamt I was seeing you
Just how I remembered
Brimming with tenderness
And somewhere in the calm
A feeling that nothing had ever changed
Your presence close beside me till I wake.

I see you..
Until I wake from shallow sleep.

An artist without a brush
Can't paint upon the canvas
Without you here - there is no colour
A colourless landscape.

In a shallow sleep I dreamt I was seeing you
Just how I remembered
Brimming with tenderness
And somewhere in the calm
A feeling that nothing had ever changed
Your presence close beside me till I wake.

I see you..
Shallow sleep

07. New days dawn

Do you really know the truth?
It only has one face
Even if you die - you've no clue
That man standing by your side
Perhaps he knows the truth
But it may not exist at all

Why pray to the light
When darkness conceives it

You're surround by deceit
It has so many sides
Yet you turn your back on that fact
Rooted deep in history
A clever web of lies
No one gets away - no one tries

Why pray to the light
When darkness conceives it

New days dawn - let's start the game
Worship the winner
So come on - let's start the game
Your turn awaits you

Say, what's your choice
The die is cast
No going back now
What's your choice
The die is cast
Fake a "God bless you"

New days dawn - let's start the game
Worship the winner
So come on - let's start the game
Your turn awaits you

08. Angel’s Tale

Here in my heart
memories linger
i hold them sacred
safe from all others
Angel's Tale

A love such as this
once in a lifetime
lost in your beauty
still dreaming of you
Angel's Tale

You drove the sinner from me
and shone with such glory
touching me softly
my breath torn away

Wrapped in a silver veil
under skies so pale
trembling as i watched you
one holy night
Angel

Snow can be warm
didn't you know that
just like a snowflake
falling from heaven
Angel's Tale

I kept my feelings from you
the heavens divide us
i longed to tell you
all my heart's desire

If only i had wings
wings as white as yours
up into the sky
i'd surely fly
angel ahhhh....

Yes, on such snowy nights
memories revive
your eternal flame
burning again secret

Here in my heart
memories linger
i hold them scared
safe from all others
Angel's Tale

09. The Cape of Storm

So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up,
Lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

You'll never notice
The colour of sin
Just as the storm clouds close in
It's dark

Here in the shadows
I am pursued
Until the ends of the earth
Embraced

The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore

So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up,
Lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

You know completely
The taste of sin
Melting sweet in your mouth
Like chocolate

A moment of pleasure
You are fulfilled
But every dream has its time
To die

The ghost ship wanders far
For there is no guiding star
And this treasure has no meaning anymore

Will this be my fate?

So where do I sail?
A ship losing control
My cries swallowed up,
Lost in the raging sea

So where has love gone?
Will I ever reach it?
The Cape of Storms echoes the pain I feel inside

10. Secret Letters

In the courtyard, birds singing
Through the window, bells ringing
Oh so tall and wide, these confining walls
I look upon the world below.

Sorrow seals our lips tightly
Horror stalks our sleep nightly
But my heart escapes from this attic room
I'm running freely though the town.

I remember, remember you
I remember, still close to you
No need to fear the distance here.

Peace is shattered by oppression
Tainted oil meets rejection
Yes and just in case I should soon return
My secret letters I will leave.

I remember, remember you
I remember, still close to you
No need to fear the distance here.

Boarding the train I take in one last look
I'll keep these memories with me forever.

I remember, remember you
I remember, still close to you
No need to fear the distance here.

I remember, remember you
I remember, still close to you
No need to fear the distance here.
