Again

(Bonus on limited edition of „In Joy and Sorrow")

I see you turn your back on again

And I see you stumbling down

This road again

I feel despair, kissing our lips again

I feel despair holding our hearts again

You hear my cry behind our back again

You hear my heart slowly down again

I feel despair kissing our lips again

And I feel despair holding our hearts again

I feel despair kissing our lips again

And I feel despair holding our hearts again

Oh baby yes

I feel...

Despair holding our hearts again

That’s right yeah u

Essential salts of animals may be so prepared and preserved

That an ingenious man

May have the whole ark of noa in his own

Study and raise the fine shape

Of an animal

Out of ist ashes at his pleasure

Unhappy is he to whom the memories of childhood

Bring only fear and sadness

Oho yes lovely

Wretched is who looks back upon lone hours

In vast and dismal chambers

With brown hangings

And maddenig rows of antique books

Watch them in twilight groves

Oh in twilight groves 2 x

By method from the essential

Salts of human dust

A philosopher may call up the shape of nay dead ancestor

From the dust where into his body has been

Incinerated incinerated incinerated

You’re under pressure baby

Christ hast returned he’s returning in every new born child 3 x

Essential salts of animal...

You’re under pressure baby...

Serpent Ride

(unreleased, HIM)

Upon the wings of a dream

She rides

Oh, she comes to me

Fills me with light

It was the dark sind of teh moon

We climb

She sends me a tune

Away through the silverest star ligths

I don’t want to wake up this time

I’m alive on this serpent ride

In the grace of our love

We write in pain

Further into this all night fog

Mesmerized

The crop of her love taste like wine

I answer her call with a rhyme

„That is not dead which can eternal life

yet with strange aeons death my die"

In your eyes lies the world where I don’t wanna go

Said you changed, but i don’t believe in miracles

Since you conquered, my heart will never been apart

One day we’ll close our eyes, open them again

And discover each other

So I open up my eyes

She greats me with a smile

From her lips closed by

All for you

(Original: Motörhead)

Still can’t belive it

Can’t stand to leave it

But I know the rules

We were doomed babe

Too much too soon babe

Acting like fools

Tried to fly and climb too high

We saw it all we had to fall

But I swear it’s true, was all for you

I swear it’s true was all for you

Making love all the time

Never let the day go by

Or a night

Sweet music in the dark

You always found the spark to light my light

Tried to fly...

The only one babe, to ever break my heart

Was You

Such a shame

Though guys never cry

But that’ll be the day I die

Speaking your name

Tried to fly...

Fade into you

(Original: Mazzy Star)

I want to hold the hand inside you

I want to take a breath that’s true

I look to you and I see nothing

I look to you to see the truth

You live your life

You go in shadows

You’ll come apart and you’ll go black

Some kind of night into your darkness

Colours your eyes without what’s not there

Fade into you

Strange you never know

Fade into you

I think it’s strange you never know

A stranger’s light comes on slowly

A stranger’s heart without a home

You put your hands into your head

And the smiles over your heart

Fade into you...

Frozen

(Original: Madonna)

You only see what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be

You’re frozen when your heart’s not open

You’re so consumed with how much you get

You waste your time with hate and regret

You’re frozen when your heart’s

Not open

If I could melt your head, we’d never be apart

Give yourself to me, your are the key

Now there’s no point in placing the blame

And you should know I’d suffer the same

If I love you my heart would be broken

Love is a bird, she nees to fly

Let all the hurt inside you die

You’re frozen

When your heart’s not open

If I could melt your heart

We’d never be apart

Give yourself to me

Your are the key

You only see...

If I could melt your heart... x 2

If I could melt your heart.

Hand of Doom

(Original: Black Sabbath)

What you gonna do

Time’s caught up with you

Now you wait your turn

You know there’s no return

Take your written rules

You join the other fools

Turn to something new

Now it’s killing you

First it was the bomb

Vietnam Napalm

Disillusioning you push the needle in

From life you escape

Reality’s that way

Colours in your mind satisfy your time

Oh you

You know you must be blind

To do something like this

To take the sleep you don’t know

You giving death a kiss

Oh, little fool now

Your mind is full of pleasure

Your body’s looking ill

To you it’s shallow leisure

So drop the acid pill,

don’t stop to think now

you’re having a good time baby

but that won’t last

your mind’s all full of things

you’re living too fast

go out enjoy yourself

don’t bottle it in

You need someone to help you

To stick the needle in, yeah

Now you know the scene

Your skin starts turning green

Your eyes no longer seein lifes reality

Push the needle in

Face death sickly grin

Holes are in your skin

Caused y deadly pin

Head starts spinning ‚round, you fall down to the ground

Fell your body heave

Death’s hands starts to weave

It’s too late to turn

You don’t want to learn

Price of life you cryNow your’re gonna die

I just died in your arms tonight

(Original: Cutting Crew)

Oh, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said

I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something

I can’t get broken hearts lie

All around me

And I don’t see an easy way to get out of this

Her diary it sits on the bedside table

The curtains are closed

The cats in the craddle who

Would’ve thought

That a boy like me could come to this

Oh, I just...

It must have been some kind of kiss

I should’ve walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?

On the surface I’m a name on a list

I try to be discreet

But then blow it again

I’ve lost and found

It’s my final mistake she’s loveing by proxy

No give and all take ‚cos I’ve

Been thrilled to fantasy won too many times

Oh I just...

It was a long hot night

She made it easy

She made it feel right

But now it’s over

The moment has gone

I followed my hands not my head

I know I was wrong

Oh I just ...

Larger than Life

(Original: Backstreet Boys)

Him did it at the Gurten Festival in Switzerland. They turned it in a Rockversion which sounded really good.

I may run and hide

When you’re screamin‘ my name

Alright

But let me tell you now

There are prices to fame, alright

All of your time spent in flashes of light

All you people can’t you see, can’t you see

How your love’s affecting our reality

Everytime we’re down

You can make it right

And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd

And I see your body sway, c’mon

Wishin‘ I could thank you in a different way c’mon

‚couse all of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can’t you see, can’t you see...

All of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can’t you see, can’t you see...

Yeah every time we’re down

Yeah you can make it right

Yeah and that’s what makes you larger than life

Live to tell

(Original: Madonna)

I have a tale to tell

Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well

I was not ready for the fall

Too blind to see the writing on the wall

A man can tell a thousand lies

I’ve learned my lesson well

Hope I live to tell

The secret I have learned till then

It will burn inside of me

I know where beauty lives

I’ve seen it once, I know the warm she gives

The light that you could never see

It shines inside

You can’t take that from me

Am man can tell...

The truth is far behind

You kept it hidden well

If I live to tell

The secret I know then

Will I ever have the chance again

If I ran away, I’d never have the strength

To go very far

How would they hear the beating of my heart

Will it grow older

The secret that I hide

Will I grow old

How will they hear

When will they learn

How will they know

A man can tell...

The truth is far behind...

Mask

(Original: Iggy Pop)

You’re wearing a mask x 3

You look better that way x 2

Are you my friend

Are you my plumber

Are you my god

What do you do

Wearing a mask

You’re wearing a mask

You’re wearing a maskl

Which mask are you

Which mask are you

Complicated

Crushed up

Disappointed

Squirming

Angry

Thrusting

Stabbling

Regretting

Starving

Greedy

Human alien being

Struggling down the street

Up the alley

In the elevator

Through the party

To the office in the bedroom

On your way to the morgue

Balls hitting

Lying

Doning a good cleed or feeling loved barely possible

Aware of insatiable demands

Of not a society all around you

Chunky frat boy in their shirts

Pimps wiht old semite, eyes

Sex hoochies of the jungle

Sensitive smart alec in New York City

Everybody in L. A. just plain licking ass or having it licked

Irony in place of balls

Balls in place of brains

Brains in place of soul

Where is the love

Where I’m

Which mask are you x 3

Your wearing a mask x 3

Which mask are you x 2

I’m a lot like you were

Old man look at my life

The whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes

And you can tell that’s true

Lullabies, look in your eyes

Run around the same old town

At how the time goes past

But I’m all alone at last

Rolling home to you

Old man take a look at my life

I’m a lot like you

I need someone to love me...

Old man look at my life

I’m a lot like you were

Old man look at my life

O’m a lot like you were

Poison heart

(Original: The Ramones)

No one ever thought this once would survive, helpless child,

gonna walk a drum beat behind

lock you in a dream, never let you go

never let you laugh or smile not you

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world

‚cause everybody has a poison heart

I just want to walk right out of this world

Cause...

Making love with a homeless torn up man

He just kind of smiles

It really shakes me up

There’s danger on every corner

But I’m ok

Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday

Well,...

A poison heart

A poison heart

A poison haert

Yeah

You know that life really takes it’s toll

And a poets good reaction is to search

His very sole

So much damn confusion before my eyes

But nothing seems to phase me and

This one still survive

A poison heart...

Sail on

(Original: Bad Brains)

Sailin‘ on - you don’t want me anymore

So I’ll just walk right out the door

Played a game right from the start

I trust you

You used me

And now my hearts torn apart

So I’m sailin‘ well I’m sailin‘ on

Well I’m movin‘ hey I’m movin‘

On

Sail on, sail on

Try to see if I’ll give up

But there wasn’t any luck

It’s a fact, fact of life

That’s the games, games of strife

Everything is all in stride

So I’m...

There’s too many years, with too many tears

And too many days with nothing to say

And how will we know

When there’s no way to go

And what the facts of life will show

Solitary Man

(Original: Neil Diamond)

Belinda was mine ‚til the time

That I found her holdin‘

Jim and lovi‘ him

Then Sue came along

Loved me strong

That’s what I thought

But me and Sue

That died, too

Don’t know that I will

But until I can find me

A girl who’ll stay and

Won’t play games behind me

I’ll be what I’m

A solitary man

A solitary man

I’ve had it to here - being where love’s small word

A part time thing, a paperring

I know it’s been done

Havin‘ one girl who loves you right or wrong

Weak or strong

Don’t know that I will...

I’ll be what I’m...

Take my breaht away

(HIM did it at the Berlin gig on the last european tour in 2001)

Watching every motion

In my foolish lover’s game

On this endless ocean

Finally lovers know no shame

Turning and returning

To some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion

As you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting

Still anticipating love

Never hesitating

To become the fated ones

Turning and returning

To some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion

As you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you

In time you slipped away

When the mirror crashed

I called you

And turned to hear you say

If only for today

I am afraid

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching every motion

In my foolish lover’s game

On this endless ocean

Finally lovers know no shame

Turning and returning

To some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion

As you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breaht away

Tempel of love

(Original: Sisters of Mercy)

With the fire from the fire works

Up above me

With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand

You run for another, but still the same

For the wind will blow my name

Across this land

In the Tempel of Love hide together

Leaving pain and fear outside

But someone near you rides the weahter

And the tears he cried woll rain on

Walls as wide as lover’s eyes

In the Tempel of Love: Shine like thunder

In the Tempel of Love: Cry like rain

In the Tempel of Love: hear my calling

In the Tempel of Love: hear my name

And the devil in al black dress

Watches over

My guardian angel walks away

Life is short and love is always

Over in the morning

Black wind come carry me far away

With the sunlight died and night above me

With a gun for a lover and a short for the pain inside

You run for cover in the Tempel of Love

You run for another, it’s all the same

For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside

In the Tempel of love...

And the Tempel of Love grows

Old and strong

But the wind blows stronger

Cold and long

And the Tempel of Love

Will fall before this

Black wind calls my name to you no more...

The first cut is the deepest

(Original: Yusuf Islam)

HIM did it in Magdeburg on the european tour 2001

I would have given you all of my heart

But there’s someone, who’s torn it apart

And she’s taken just all, that I had

But if you want I’ll try to love again

I try to love again

Babe, I’ll try to love again

But I know

The first cut is deepest, babe

I know the first cut is the deepest

When it comes to being lucky she’s cursed

When it comes to loveing me, she’s worse

I still want you by my side

Just to help me dry the tears

That I’ve cried

And I’m sure gonna give you a try

And if you want I’ll try to love again

And I’m sure gonna give you a try and if you want I’ll try to love again

Babe, I’ll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest babe

I know, the first cut is the deepest

When it comes to being lucky she’s cursed

When it comes to loving me she’s worse

Enjoy the silence

Words like violence
break the silence
come crashing in
into my little world painful to me
pierce right trhough me
can't you understand
o my little girl
All I ever wanted
all I ever needed
is here in my arms
words are very unnecessary
they can only do harm
Vows are spoken
to be broken
feelings are intense
words are trivial
pleasure remain
so does the pain
words are meaningless
and forgettable
All I ever wanted
all I ever needed
is here in my arms
words are very unnecessary
they can only do harm

Rebel yell

Last night a little dancer came dancin' to my door
Last night my little angel came pumpin' on the floor
She said, come, baby, I got a license for love
And if it expires, pray help from above
Because in the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more
With a rebel yell, she cried more, more, more
In the midnight hour, babe, more, more, more
With a rebel yell, more, more, more
more, more, more
She don't like slavery, she won't sit and beg
But when I'm tired and lonely, she sees me to bed
What set you free and brought you to me, babe
What set you free, I need you here by me
He lives in his own heaven
Collects it to go from the 7-11
Well, he's out all night to collect a fare
Just so long, just so long it don't mess up his hair
I walked the walls for you babe
A thousand miles for you
I dried your tears of pain
666 times for you
I'd sell my soul for you, babe
For money to burn for you
I'd give you all and have none, babe
Just-a just-a just-a just-a to have you here by me
