THE TITANIC OVERTURE (Lawless)
I look at my face in the mirror And I don't understand Don't feel like a boy and it's not getting clearer But I don't feel like a man
I'm seveneen and I'm somebody's son My dad don't know where I stand Cause when he looks at me He don't like what he sees He don't know what I am
ТИТАНИЧЕСКОЕ УСИЛИЕ
THE INVISIBLE BOY (Lawless)
Jonathon I was the boy unwanted, a prisoner I'm born to them My brother was the one, that couldn't do no wrong And I was there dying in the shadow of him
Jonathon to his father Red, crimson red, am I the invisible boy? Feel the strap, cross my back Yeah I'm the new whipping boy
Who am I - the orphan son you would never need? Who am I - cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees Who am I - the slave you gave just the air I breathe? Who am I - cause I'm the boy only the mirror sees
Jonathon Oh I got the same old reruns, horror movies in my head And I can't rest, the scare me to death But if I'm not alive, how can I be dead?
Jonathon to his father Red, crimson red, am I the invisible boy? Feel the strap, cross my back Yeah I'm the new whipping boy
Jonathon to the mirror Oh, why me?
The mirror Why him
Jonathon Can you tell me?
The mirror It's confession again? Come talk to me, I see in your eyes Titantic misery, ashamed that you're alive I'm the face that you see When the face isn't yours I'm the mirror my boy
Some people never go crazy What truly boring lives they must lead Is there no love to shelter me? Only love, love sets me free

ARENA OF PLEASURE (Lawless)
I don't know where I'm going, but I can't wait to get there, All I know is, I'm just going I ran away from home last night, gone forever I was running for my life And I've heard the words of what I should be Live, Work, Die, I am the orphan of the night
Take me down, I'm coming home, the road to ruins Inside the pleasure dome Take me down, I'm coming home, arena of pleasures Where I belong
I'm in the eye of my rage, where no hurricane dies I'm in the eye of my rage, where the hurricane lies Oh, a storm's in my eyes And like the beast that's in my soul, I'm the restless child Ah mama, I'm running for my life
I was sixteen going nowhere, will I see seventeen alive And I was running from the nightmare I stand at the promised land with fire in my eyes I'm at the crossroad of my destiny and desire Oh, God, what will I be And my obsession is the gasoline to feed my fire Oh it's burning in me
Don't waste the tears on my wasted years Mama I'm outta here
They are poisoned snakes with double tongues Horney hedgehogs who do their wrong Deaf men and blind worms, they'll be not seen They are pawns and rooks for a crimson king They are a government with a parliament of whores Can you hear the screams from the fame machine Down in Chainsaw Charlies morgue?

Will he take me down to the gallows And kill the boy inside the man I'm just a rock and roll nigger I know he don't know what I am
I don't see my face in the mirror And more, or understand Why am I the chosen one I'm the crimson man Long live, long live, long live the king of mercy Long live, long live Is there no love, I am one The side you see, is the nasty me
Я ОДИН
THE IDOL (Lawless)
Will I be alone this morning Will I need my friends Something just to ease away the pain And now I never see the loneliness Behind my face I am just a prisoner to my faith
If I could only stand and stare in the mirror would I see One fallen hero with a face like me And if I scream, could anybody hear me If I smash the silence, you'll see what fame has done to me
Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely I'll never know if love's a lie Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy Can you see the prisoners in my eyes Where is the love to shelter me Give me love, love set me free Where is the love, to shelter me Only love, love set me free Set me free

Take away the pain, inside my soul And I'm afraid, so all alone Take away the pain, that's burning in my soul Cause I'm afraid that I'll be all alone So just hold me, hold me, hold me
Hold on to my heart, to my heart, to me Hold on to my heart, to my heart, to me And oh no, don't let me go cause all I am You hold in your hands, and hold me And I'll make it through the night And I'll be alright, hold on, hold on to my heart

THE GREAT MISCONCEPTION OF ME (Lawless)
Jonathon to the audience Welcome to the show the great finale's finally here I thank you for coming into my theatre of fear Welcome to the show, you're all witnesses you see A privileged invitation to the last rights of me
Jonathon to his mother Remember me? You can't save me Mama you never needed me No crimson king, look in my eye, you'll see Mama I'm lonely, it's only me, only me
Jonathon to all I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million eyes, of a million
Jonathon to all I am the prisoner of the paradise I dreamed The idol of a million lonely faces look at me Behind the mask of sorrow, four doors of doom behind my eyes I've got their footprints all across my crimson mind
Jonathon to the king of mercy Long live, long live, long live the king of mercy Long live, long live
Jonathon to all There is no love, to shelter me Only love, love set me free No love, to shelter me, only love, love set me free I was the warrior, with an anthem in my soul The idol of eight thousand lonely days of rage ago And remember me when it comes your time to choose Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true
Jonathon to the king of mercy Jonathon to all Jonathon to his father Red, crimson red, am I the invisible boy The strap on my back Red, crimson red, no I was never to be Only one crimson son, no it never was me
Jonathon to all Living in the limelight little did I know I was dying in the shadows and the mirror was my soul It was all I ever wanted, everything I dreamed But the dream became my nightmare and no-one could hear me scream With these six-strings, I make a noose To take my life, it's time to choose The headlines read of my suicide, of my suicide
Jonathon to the king of mercy Oh sweet silence, where is the sting I am no idol, no crimson king I'm the imposter, the world has seen My father was the idol, it was never me I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million eyes
Jonathon to all No love, to shelter me, only love Love set me free No love, to shelter me, only love Love set me free
