1.	The Hunger 05:50	lyrics	buy track
In a world of make-believe Off my game with heavy feet It is getting hard to breathe Carry on now My skin is not fitting me Nothing’s really what it seems Yearn for solitude and dreams Hold the line now Stumbling in a raving dance Trying to follow their commands Bowing to demanding hands Let me be Like a puppet in their play Bound by invisible chains Rushing slowly against time Set me free Deluded by my cotton candy skies They are tearing, grabbing, pulling,   pushing me from every side A weaver of their dreams to feed upon Everybody wants something from me The hunger lives on Sleeping on uneven ground Shouting higher with no sound Cornered in a circle round Carry on now Stormy days that never end Tension’s running in my veins Panic time and time again Hold the line now Stumbling in a raving dance Trying to follow their commands Bowing to demanding hands Set me free Deluded by my cotton candy skies They are tearing, grabbing, pulling,   pushing me from every side A weaver of their dreams to feed upon Everybody wants something from me The hunger lives on Hiding behind a smile and a lie I’m in pieces Wondering if it’s meant to be Is such a life my destiny? Seasons are changing  as I’m slowly fading Is this my fate? Deluded by my cotton candy skies They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side A weaver of their dreams to feed upon Everybody wants something from me The hunger lives on One remote dream away A quiet space Slow down, slow down,   slow down and catch my breath Put this chase to rest  Feeling my hand cutting the power lines Shutting it all down  Ruling a blackout Safe in the dark  Here in the underground Cause when the curtain falls  Nothing but silence Deluded by my cotton candy skies They are tearing, grabbing, pulling,   pushing me from every side Deluded by my cotton candy skies They are tearing, grabbing, pulling,  pushing me from every side A weaver of their dreams to feed upon Everybody wants something from me The hunger lives on
2.	Safe World 04:49	lyrics	buy track
Scared to hear your demons closing in Steps in the hallway Mercilessly  push you to the edge Like predator and prey They fear you  just because you are different Something strange within you  triggers their violence Broken by their every tear Trampled by them everywhere Escape is near Dive into your safe world Unfold your hidden powers  and move the stars around You can fly into your safe world They can never cross your borders  They can never steal your crown Staying home alone  You hide away You cut to numb the pain Shook up and teary-eyed again Just wanting it to end They hurt you  just because you are different Something strange within you  triggers their violence Broken by their every tear Trampled by them everywhere Escape is near Dive into your safe world Unfold your hidden powers  and move the stars around You can fly into your safe world They can never cross your borders  They can never steal your crown Dive into your safe world Unfold your hidden powers  and move the stars around You can fly into your safe world They can never cross your borders  They can never steal your crown
3.	Virtual Lives 04:44	lyrics	buy track
Ever stop and wonder  about the world around? The perfect imperfections  and nature's splendour? And do you see the colours  of the fading skies? And do you hear the ocean? Do you remember? Crossing red lights Pushing old ladies aside Nothing comes between You and your screen The wave of make-believe We're the zombie nations  scrolling by Stage the scene Hunting the 'likes', the fakery Zombie nations  living virtual lives Ever stop and wonder  about the games we played? Chase and tag and hide-and-seek? How we surrendered The late night conversations  lying face-to-face? Sharing secrets, smiles and tears Do you remember? Crossing red lights Pushing old ladies aside Nothing comes between You and your screen Imagine being present now Imagine letting go somehow Your fear of missing out  destroys the here and now Shut it down, look around just for a while Your screen The wave of make-believe We're the zombie nations  scrolling by Stage the scene Hunting the 'likes', the fakery Zombie nations  living virtual lives
4.	The Giants' Fall 04:00	lyrics	buy track
Yet again, yet again the small Gonna suffer and bleed in war Yet again, yet again the small In the midst of a storm must forge In the shadows they came marching Yearning to defeat Found our weakness Blurred our vision with their lies and deceit Gather the troops Without us, there is no you We will not bow We need a riot We need a showdown When we stand alone  We are powerless and small Ooh only if we unite  We’ll see the giants fall They divided Spread the silence Forced us to our knees Smoke is rising From our fire It’s time to break free We will not bow We need a riot We need a showdown When we stand alone  We are powerless and small Ooh only if we unite  We’ll see the giants fall Come let us turn  against the force Come let us fight  no matter the cost So here we are  united in war Hear us roar
5.	Insomnia 04:41	lyrics	buy track
Rise Rays of sun will kill the night In a matter of hours, in time When has sleeping become a crime Let me go, let me resign  To my dreams  The unconscious state My mind is fighting at the sleeping gate Soon it’s too late, the usual tape Just let me through Mind overclocking thoughts are flocking Never ever ever letting go Begging please to let me offline Would you be so kind,  save me please Moon reflections,  new injections Fueling up my mind once again Will this ever end in time Every night  Endless fights There’s no way  To end this game Insomnia Every night  Demons by my side There’s no way out  No escape Insomnia Rain  A flood of thoughts keeps me in chains Whirling around, driving me insane Please release me from this pain Within a blink, just let me sink  Under my skin, beneath this state My mind is fighting at the sleeping gate What’s the safe word?  My mind is all blurred Just let me through Mind overclocking thoughts are flocking Never ever ever letting go Begging please to let me offline Would you be so kind, save me please Moon reflections,  new injections Fueling up my mind once again Will this ever end in time Every night  Endless fights There’s no way  To end this game Insomnia Every night  Demons by my side There’s no way out  No escape Insomnia At night you’re the thief Not giving me a chance to breathe Where lies the hidden key That will set me free
6.	Destiny 05:34	lyrics	buy track
Your destination  always one step ahead A million hours, drops of blood,   sweat and tears spent Everyday a new goal Adding more fuel adding coal  What you need is right  beyond the riverside And you can swim,  but you will struggle  and you’ll fight When the waves  are mile high You’ll keep on pushing  Cause it’s do or die We strive, we dive into the core of art Always giving all we’ve got This is our fate  to forge in the shades Beaten, never broken Head is up high You’ll levitate and fly towards  your destiny Worn out, yet you’re woken Never give up Pursuing your dreams,   never settle until you reach Reach your destiny Every day people  will try to slow you down Keep up your pace  and keep your feet on the ground Occupied by technology Time is your ultimate enemy We strive, we dive into the core of art Always giving all we’ve got This is our fate  to forge in the shades Beaten, never broken Head is up high You’ll levitate and fly towards  your destiny Above dirt, above trees Worn out, yet you’re woken Never give up Pursuing your dreams,  never settle until you reach Reach your destiny Beaten, never Beaten, never broken Head is up high You’ll levitate and fly towards  your destiny Above dirt, above trees Worn out, yet you’re woken Never give up Pursuing your dreams,  never settle until you reach Reach your destiny
7.	Flirting with Death 05:56	lyrics	buy track
The powder on the table The dirt inside your mind And nothing would be able to stop your way of life Maybe there’s no tomorrow and all ends will collide Until then feel no sorrow You’re ready for this ride They all know they’ve lost you While hard candy’s running  through your veins Your love affair with death Run like you mean it,  fight like you feel it Every breath could be your last See no future, see no past Flirting with death Love like you mean it,   dance like you feel it Euphoric highs they have a price No regrets in paradise Living on the edge,  flirting with death Your skin is getting looser but there’s no time to eat You’re spending time with uppers or downers as you please Your time is getting closer, burned candle in both ends Your sober days are over, like family and friends They all know they’ve lost you While hard candy’s running  through your veins Your love affair with death Run like you mean it,   fight like you feel it Every breath could be your last See no future, see no past Flirting with death Love like you mean it,  dance like you feel it Euphoric highs they have a price No regrets in paradise Living on the edge,  flirting with death Walking on a tightrope  thinking you’re immortal These chemicals  are not your friends Turn back before   it is too late Putting everything on the line  Laughing at the danger  tainting every blood cell Nobody thought   you’d end like this Chasing everlasting bliss Floating high above it all Till you fall… Run like you mean it,  fight like you feel it Every breath could be your last See no future, see no past Flirting with death Love like you mean it,  dance like you feel it Euphoric highs they have a price No regrets in paradise Living on the edge,  flirting with death
8.	Your Memory Lives On 05:36	lyrics	buy track
Sprinkled your stardust all over me Showed me the things I could achieve Cheered me up on sad days Always had my back Forever I’m grateful Growing into a tree Above all the walls A place where I am free I am fully grown Independent, a queen On top of my throne Light up my world Make time disappear Feel safe when you’re here Forever changed And when you’ll be gone Your memory lives on In me Your words of courage embracing me Strength to pursue my own dreams Blood runs in my veins, your legacy It’s my time to sow my own seeds Growing into a tree Above all the walls A place where you’ll be free You’re soon fully grown Independent, a king On top of your throne Light up my world Make time disappear Feel safe when you’re here Forever changed And when I’ll be gone My memory lives on Seeing you grow All the challenges the life will throw At you now I’m here in your shade You gotta set your sails Take a leap and write your own tales As you go In time I’ll decay Light up my world Make time disappear Feel safe when you’re here Forever changed And when I’ll be gone My memory lives on In you Light up my world Make time disappear Feel safe when you’re here Forever changed And when I’ll be gone My memory lives on In you
9.	Dead Zone 05:22	lyrics	buy track
Prayers in the hour late Darkness within every kind You carve in stone our human fate Weaving a carpet of lies It’s a time of confusion We need to fight it Turn back before it’s too late Chomp into the bone Leaving disaster wherever you go Feeling no regrets, no sorrow Dig the grave of man The bloody money in your greedy hands You will leave a worldwide dead zone Race to point of no return Never a second to waste You seal the deal with no concern Anything goes in your game It’s a time of confusion We need to fight it Turn back before it’s too late Chomp into the bone Leaving disaster wherever you go Feeling no regrets, no sorrow Dig the grave of man The bloody money in your greedy hands You will leave a worldwide dead zone Earth is burning now,  there’s nowhere to run You cannot escape the truth And you will go down with all of us,   fight for your life like us Cause this world is your home too Chomp into the bone Leaving disaster wherever you go Feeling no regrets, no sorrow Dig the grave of man The bloody money in your greedy hands You will leave a worldwide dead zone Chomp into the bone Leaving disaster wherever you go Feeling no regrets, no sorrow Dig the grave of man The bloody money in your greedy hands You will leave a worldwide dead zone We all need to fight it Stop them from leaving   a worldwide dead zone

Did their whispers tear you down Talk behind your back Stare and freeze you out Don’t let them get to you Did they troll you hard online Shout and call you names Mock you for your size Don’t let them get to you We’re all made  from the same stardust So beautiful with our  different lights and shapes Shine your light and be proud Cause what a bore  if we were all the same Here’s to every outcast Here’s to all the different Let’s celebrate diversity,  who we are Here’s to every colour Here’s to every gender We all have the right to be  who we are Did they push you around Ignore you, leave you out Turn their back and laugh Don’t let them bring you down Did they scorn you, make you cry Poke you, tell you lies Taunt you with your style Don’t let them bring you down We’re all made  from the same stardust So beautiful with our  different lights and shapes Shine your light and be proud Cause what a bore  if we were all the same Here’s to every outcast Here’s to all the different Let’s celebrate diversity,  who we are Here’s to every colour Here’s to every gender We all have the right to be  who we are You’re not alone Strangers waiting to be friends Embrace what makes you different You, stand your ground You’re perfect like the way you are Worthy just the way you are Freedom to be just like Freedom to look just like we want There’s room for everyone Freedom to act just like Freedom to love just who we want As long as nobody gets hurt,  who cares? Here’s to every outcast Here’s to all the different Let’s celebrate diversity,  who we are Here’s to every colour Here’s to every gender We all have the right to be  who we are
11.	My Nothingness 04:08	lyrics	buy track
This itchy feeling In my hands I need to buy and spend to cover my demands This new and precious thing fills up my soul Until tomorrow Get rid of all the old And this eternal chase for instant happiness One-minute satisfaction affecting my every action Surely new things will Fill my nothingness inside Make me feel alright Let me use and toss away Tomorrow there’s a brand new day Fill my void inside This craving feeling I must succeed In search of someone new to cover all my needs This new exciting one fulfilling all my hopes Until tomorrow Swipe left and let it go And this eternal chase for instant happiness One-minute satisfaction affecting my every action Surely new things will Fill my nothingness inside Make me feel alright Let me use and toss away Tomorrow there’s a brand new day Fill my void inside What if I don’t buy and own? What if I spent time alone? What if all illusions washed away? Don’t wanna feel,  feel my nothingness in Fill my nothingness inside Make me feel alright Let me use and toss away Tomorrow there’s a brand new day Fill my void inside Make me feel alright Let me use and toss away Tomorrow there’s a brand new day Fill my void inside
12.	Demons in Paradise 06:51	lyrics	buy track
In early dawn  you see her move,  like a queen Like all the answers  to your prayers,  stuck in a dream Breathe in  her intoxicating smile  With golden hair,  lips so sweet,  feel her near Her stirring touch,  the velvet voice  stroking your ear So sweet  promises and fairy-tales You’re playing hard with fire Walking on thin ice,  she’s evil in disguise Cause she will take you higher Just to let go  and watch you fall Welcome demons in Paradise To her it’s just a game of beautiful lies Warnings, red lights, you close your eyes You just wanna live this beautiful lie Angel eyes  and devil’s mind,  watch your back She’ll plant a bomb  inside your heart  with no regrets Her ways leave you helpless,  wanting more You’ve let her in  where it hurts  you the most It’s all pretend,  scam and lies  down to the bone So sweet  and deceitful like morphine You’re playing hard with fire Walking on thin ice, she’s evil in disguise Cause she will take you higher Just to let go and watch you fall Welcome demons in Paradise To her it’s just a game of beautiful lies Warnings, red lights, you close your eyes You just wanna live this beautiful lie You’re playing hard with fire Walking on thin ice,  she’s evil in disguise Cause she will take you higher Just to let go  and watch you fall Tonight you’re eating from her hand But you’re not her only man You think this is what you want You think what you’ve found is love Spellbound and lost Tonight you’ll see her Wonderland But you don’t know it won’t last You believe her smoke and mirrors Smitten by the lust and shivers Drifting away now, drifting away now, drifting away now Welcome demons in Paradise To her it’s just a game of beautiful lies Warnings, red lights, you close your eyes You just wanna live this beautiful lie Welcome demons in Paradise To her it’s just a game of beautiful lies Warnings, red lights, you close your eyes You just wanna live this beautiful lie

Second favourite: "I Fade". Other great (!) songs are "Ocean" amd "Mainland" (which has a Loreena McKennitt-meets-Within Temptation vibe) I have procrastinated buying her "Kings & Queens" album. I shall fix that immediately. Pie
