about

Always in the outer circle of the crowd - either much too quiet or a bit too loud.
Not a worker, not a preacher, not a clown - never done a thing to get my name renowned.

Track Name: One Man Tribe
My father's son, can't look ahead
And so he does what he's told instead
His soul is bleeding, but without a cry
And his life is a one man lie

I listen hard, I try to learn
Just one more yard, one more dollar earned
All I can see is how much I make
But I'm just a one man fake

My life is set - don't think, don't talk
A treaded path that I have to walk
And I smile 'cause I'm expected to
It's a show with a one man crew

Today I'm done, today I change
I break free, break free - it feels good but strange
No more slaving, I am in control
I have found my one man soul
Yes, I've found my one man soul

I make my way, my life, my choice
Beyond the rat race I can hear my voice
And now loneliness has a different vibe
I've become a one man tribe
Track Name: Odd Soul
I once was a son, now I'm on my own
Went through every war and I've got myself to show
And the trials and tribulations seem to always track me down
Gonna ride off into the sunset and try me another town

Watch for who you know, careful what you try
Everywhere I go I still got myself to find
And if one day, my child ever wonders what is wrong
I won't bat an eye when I tell her; daddy don't belong

I'm an odd soul, oh yes an odd soul
Walking side roads, cause that's the only way I know

I once was a son, now I'm on my own
Went through every war and I've got myself to show
And the trials and tribulations seem to always track me down
Gonna ride off into the sunset and try me another town

I'm an odd soul, oh yes an odd soul
Walking side roads, cause that's the only way I know
I'm an odd soul, oh yes an odd soul
But I gotta search, just trying to find a place called home
Track Name: Royal Parasite
Always in the outer circle of the crowd
Either much too quiet - or a bit too loud
Not a worker, not a preacher, not a clown
Never done a thing to get my name renowned

Listen to my humble claim:
I was born for a bigger game
Bring the fortune, bring the fame
(I) Want a life fit for a king
A superior being
Aristocracy's my thing - But all I do is sing

Always stared at when among the commonage
Feeling comfortless without my apanage
I could handle being worshiped and adored
Please amuse me, cause I frequently and easily get bored…

I am darkness, I am light
You are fools and I'm so bright
I'm a royal parasite
Deserve a life fit for a king
A superior being
Aristocracy's my thing - So bow down for your king!

If you're odd and deserve more, hear what I say:
Start a kingdom, and start owning it today

Do you want a life fit for a king?
A superior being
If aristocracy's your thing
It's just madness if you fail
Do your best and hope that they'll
never see beneath the veil - Then you will prevail…

LONG LIVE THE KING!
Track Name: Lights
She wakes up shivering, in the cold blue morning
Looks out into the myriad of the city
She doesn't believe in fate, and now it seems too late
And anyway – there's no time for regret

When lights go down and the city creeps into it's burrow
loneliness crawls under your skin
A crowd of lonely souls – we watch the lights

He gets up six o five in the cold blue morning
Fading dreams of loving embrace
He won't believe in love, of a match sent from above
And, by the way – that train passed a long time ago

When lights go down and the city creeps into it's burrow
loneliness crawls under your skin
Staring through the window into the dark
A crowd of lonely souls – we watch the lights
We watch the lights

There's no passion in the street
There's no seeing when we meet
There's just walking to the beat away

There's no closeness to expect
There are no dots to connect
There's no chance to recollect and stay

There's no lighthouse in the night
There's no savior in sight
All I ever looked for
was your light
