When The Sinner

(álbum: Chameleon - 1993)

[Words and Music by Michael Kiske]

Now it's time to shake it all up, to be free,
Now it's time to make us some room to let us be.
Oh, it feels so bad, yes, if fells so bad,
When everything good looks so bad,
When everything right goes so wrong.
I am up to break it all down what's in my way,
I won't stop until I am where I'm going to stay.
No one holds me back, no, no one holds me back,
Don't wanna be what I am not,
But it's gotta be myself who breaks my neck.
I look here and you look there, I know it's got to be somewhere,
Over my head look over my head
We look around and search around and walk around and hear around
And you won't see no halo
We keep on looking 'til we know what for.
If you don't know it,I don't know it, we don't know it, who will know it?
It's driving me mad
All of us don't know what we should know, maybe one day we'll know,
I must hold it back inside
But anyway we've got to make a stop.
When the sinner searches sin it's all of us,
When we finally search inside it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it who must pay?
All I've ever done I've done for you!
In my mind the battle goes on 'til I give up,
Will we find the key of life we once have dropped?
Do you really care? Tell me you really care!
You may find Mr. Blane, but the guilt of life burns everywhere.
Give me light to see my inside, give me light to see my sin,
Over my head look over my head
I'd never do what I regret, I've never done anything bad,
And you won't see no halo
You must be joking when you point at me.
Hey! Don't you blame me! Don't you touch me!
Won't you ever leave me be? I wanna live! Don't wanna think!
It's driving me mad
Why should I give what I can drink?
I must hold it back inside
When the sinner searches sin it's all of us,
When we finally search inside it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it who must pay?
All I've ever done I've done for you!
Pain I feel inside it's such a Shame.
No one fights fair but who's to Blame?
Might be the game of life but it ain't over.
Now! I walk my way firm any
Now! My conscience speaks and there are Doubts!
But nothing's sure in life and it ain't over. Now!
I look here and you look there, I know it's got to be somewhere,
Over my head look over my head
We look around and search around and walk around and hear around
And you won't see no halo
We keep on looking 'til we know what for.
If you don't know it, I don't know it, we don't know it, who will know it?
It's driving me mad
All of us don't know what we should know, maybe one day we'll know,
I must hold it back inside
But anyway we've got to make a stop.
When the sinner searches sin it's all of us,
When we finally search inside it's under us.
We keep on looking anyway if we don't find it who must pay?
All I've ever done I've done for you! ...
