    SOLE SURVIVOR
    Music: Weikath / Lyrics: Deris & Weikath

    I got that fever 
    Burning my head 
    So many mem'ries
    No tear to shed
    Burns like a fire 
    Who stole my aims?
    My comrade fighters
    Been sent astray
    
    How could I know
    What others had in mind for me?
    How could they know
    What measures I take?
    
    Sole survivor
    Of a kill without alert
    Sing your feelings
    Out your song remains unheard
    Sole survivor
    
    We shared like brothers
    A light in the black
    Totaly blended
    Bold and erect
    But we've grown intriguers
    Till it's to late
    Time has brought fire
    Fear, greed, and hate
    
    Now I'm crying
    I'm shattered on the ground
    All I find
    Has died anyway
    
    Sole survivor
    Of a kill without alert
    Sing your feelings
    Out your song remains unheard
    Sole survivor
    Got a voice without a sound
    Mean mistreaters 
    Took away your ground
    Sole survivor
    
    How could I know
    What others had in mind for me?
    How could they know
    What measures I take?
    
    Sole survivor
    Of a kill without alert
    Sing your feelings
    Out your song remains unheard
    Sole survivor
    Got a voice without a sound
    Mean mistreaters 
    Took away your ground
    Sole survivor
    
    


    WHERE THE RAIN GROWS
    Music: Weikath / Lyrics: Deris

    I never looked higher
    Than I could see
    Never gave less
    Than you have given me
    The more you have taken
    you turned into fakes
    I finaly know now
    Why, for Heaven's sake?
    
    Don't tell me you did not see that I cried
    Don't act so deaf and blind
    Don't think that if someone's made dumb to the core
    He would stay like before
    
    So I take my life
    Back from where the rain grows
    Die to survive
    Back from where the rain grows
    
    Now you call me liar
    'Cause you are just the
    "Always-have-right"-fools majority
    I think that it's someone starve at your side
    You'd all turn your back
    Won't give any dime
    
    Don't tell me you did not see that I cried
    Don't act so deaf and blind
    Don't think that if someone's made sad to the core
    He would stay like before
    
    So I take my life
    Back from where the rain grows
    Die to survive
    Back from where the rain grows
    
    I take my life
    Back from where the rain grows
    Die to survive
    Back from where the rain grows
    From where the rain grows
    I know where the rain grows
    I'm back from where the rain grows
    
    


    PERFECT GENTLEMAN
    Music: Deris / Lyrics: Deris & Weikath

    There's no doubt about it
    I'm one of a kind, baby
    I am le d'Artagnan de coeur 
    As you may see, candy
    
    And I'm talking with my eyes
    And I walk in different styles
    I'm the genuine man!
    
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    
    Kneel down, inhale my odor
    Come, kiss my hand, angel
    Dare to explore my higher grounds
    Strive to deserve me, ma cherie
    
    And my winds surpass perfume
    I'm charismatic at full bloom
    I'm the genuine man!
    
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    
    Yes I am, I am, yes I am (Perfect)
    
    Oh Lord, what can I do? 
    I can't resist my own reflection
    How would possibly anyone?
    'Cause I am (Perfect)
    Yes I am (Perfect)
    Yes I am (Perfect)
    Oh Lord I am (Perfect)
    
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    Yes I am
    I am a perfect gentleman
    
    


    THE GAME IS ON
    Music & Lyrics: Weikath

    Have you seen this little toy
    When you're down it gives you joy
    You escape reality
    Delve into its TV screen
    
    For the rich and for the poor
    For the even more secure
    Doesn't matter where you are
    Where you go or where you've been
    
    Well, there's still no guarantee
    For your virgin mind, you see
    Just go on and play the game
    You will surely go insane
    
    The game is on
    And you have gone
    Gone to a world on its display
    And the game is fun
    But when it has won
    All you ever hear is what it says
    
    There's a great amount of fumes
    Coming out from somebody's room
    The firemen got there
    Making their way up the stairs
    
    Find a man in a chair
    But it doesn't seem he's there
    With a grey box in his hands
    He has gone to another land
    
    The game is on
    And you have gone
    Gone to a world on its display
    And the game is fun
    But when it has won
    All you ever hear is what it says
    
    You have played it much too long
    Now your senses get things wrong
    All your walls come crashing down
    Now it's time for you to frown
    
    How'd you like this heavy load?
    Gess your brain will soon explode
    You never had this ugly feel
    Time to dial emergency
    
    The game is on
    And you have gone
    Gone to a world on its display
    And the game is fun
    But when it has won
    All you ever hear is what it says
    
    


    SECRET ALIBI
    Music & Lyrics: Weikath

    Piece by piece you're tearin' me apart
    Give to me and try another start
    Brick by brick you really love that game
    Things from which I can't refrain
    
    So many stories have been told
    I give a damn, they're just too old
    How often will we face the the end of our dreams?
    When will I see it all come true?
    A splendid time for me and you
    Can we expect it bein' nice as it seems?
    
    Will you be my secret alibi
    Angel of my nights
    Can we do it right?
    Let's just try each others love so sweet
    Till we can't deny
    My secret alibi
    
    Ding by ding can you dig my dong
    It may come short but it might come long
    Limb by limb you're climbing up my tree
    Making things more fun for me
    
    So many stories have been told
    I give a damn, they're just too old
    How often will we face the the end of our dreams?
    When will I see it all come true?
    A splendid time for me and you
    Can we expect it bein' nice as it seems?
    
    Will you be my secret alibi
    Angel of my nights
    Can we do it right?
    Let's just try each others love so sweet
    Till we can't deny
    My secret alibi
    
    Will you be my secret alibi
    Angel of my nights
    Can we do it right?
    Let's just try each others love so sweet
    Till we can't deny
    My secret alibi
    
    


    IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEARTBEAT
    Music: Deris / Lyrics: Deris & Weikath

    Tell me pretty girl, do you know who I am?
    Have you ever seen me as your friend?
    Anything we have is those hungry nights
    But there's so much left unsatisfied
    
    All those little things you told me
    Ain't good enough to show me
    That we're gonna make it through the time
    
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And I know that I'm doin' right
    Together we are still so far apart
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And the more I try to be your light
    I can't get any closer to your heart
    
    Now that I'm afraid just to ask for more
    I'm still waiting as I did before
    If you only said that it's not too late
    We could then rely upon your fate
    
    All those little things you'd tell me 
    Could bear enough to show me
    That we're gonna make it through the time
    
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And I know that I'm tellin' right
    Together we are still so far apart
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And the more I try to be your light
    I can't get any closer to your heart
    
    I found out
    I found out
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And I know that I'm doin' right
    Together we are still so far apart
    I found out
    In the middle of a heartbeat
    And the more I try to be your light
    I can't get any closer to your heart
