 | 1. City of Secrets (the Grail in you)
you have secrets
you have ways to make
me know that I don't know
some are physical
some too difficult
they're rituals and thoughts
of ancient love
will you let me in
will you look at me
and tell me what you see
it means everything to me
I just to need to know
do you feel the same way
tell me that it's true
cos I think I found the Grail
in you
you possess me
but what possesses you
I have no clue
it's a mystery what you do
you're the mirror
the more I look at you
the more I see about myself
but where are you
cos I need something new
will you let me in
will you look at me
and tell me what you see
you mean everything to me
I just to need to know
do you feel the same way
tell me that it's true
cos I think I found the Grail
in you
2. Book of Souls
would I love you differently
if I knew where this would end
and when
would it feel more intense
would we quietly count down
or play our favorite songs real loud
while we seek the final thrill
and swallow the red pill
waiting for the kill
can we win
or sin
when everything's
destined
the outcome is the same
always
are we right
or wrong
to head
where we belong
no matter where I go
no matter what I do
my destiny
is here
with you
would you pray for better times
if you knew it was in vain
always
would you feel so betrayed
it's like reading the same book
and discovering the truth
that they're all familiar names
and the endings are the same
it always ends the same way
can we win
or sin
when everything's
destined
the outcome is the same
always
are we right
or wrong
to head
where we belong
no matter where I go
no matter what I do
my destiny
is here with you
will we really see the light
when we're on the other side
will we find another stage
or just letters on a page
are we particles adrift
or aligned along the cliff
and no matter how we pledge
the time bomb will still blow us
over the edge
3. The Bond Code
I'm lost in you
will you rescue me
save the day
pour the champagne
all over this intoxicating flame
again
our worlds are far apart
just a book casting its spell
I know you too well
but it's not enough
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in you
behind the lies
and the gentleman disguise
love me now
touch me now
even when
you betray all that I am
I need to tell
of reality and hurt
of the living hell
in all corners of the world
I knew them well
I have it written down
is it fiction or the facts
you just re-enact
when you cry and laugh
I'm lost in you
I'm lost in you
behind the lies
and this gentleman's disguise
love me now
touch me now
and even when
you betray all that I am
I'm still who made you
I'm still who wrote you
will you realize
it's in front of your eyes
I'm getting too tired
to decode
you
4. The Masonic Magician
if these walls could hear me
I'd tell them all my tales
and all my lies
all the adventures that I lived
the mistress I could not resist
will you still open up your heart
when I no longer hold the cards
will you still hear me call your name
when you walk by this empty cell
will you remember who I was
when I'm in heaven or in hell
will you burn candles for
my soul when all the chandeleers have gone
will you find shelter in my
brotherhood alone
teach me sin and salvation
show me your velvet skin
in the myst of my cravings
I would do anything to win
she's got the beauty
the wit, the faithful tears
she's got all the answers
help me
and teach me what they mean
it is truth to me
if these walls could see me
I'd show them what is left
of what I am
I'm just the shadow of a man
who read the future
in your hands
I'm not afraid to face the test
if I'm found guilty by the rest
to leave this prison and this body
here to rest
teach me sin and salvation
show me your velvet skin
in the myst of my cravings
I would do anything to win
she's got the beauty
the wit, the faithful tears
she's got all the answers
help me
and teach me what they mean
true to me
is it your burden or relief
to have me sentenced for belief
to hear me crying out your name
in vain
teach me sin and salvation
show me your velvet skin
in the myst of my cravings
I would do anything to win
she's got the beauty
the wit, the faithful tears
she's got all the answers
help me
and teach me what they mean
it's all true to me
5. The Book of Love
a rose gives you its beauty
but hurts you with its thorns
the symbol of unity
can be too painful to hold
like the story of the woman
who loved this one man
who died for his devotion
for the others in the land
love can conquer anything
but I’m sure
that she also felt the pain
when blood was washed away
the love remained
every time she called your name
it started in her heart
this miracle
and the book that lived on
after you’d gone
Magdalene brought love
it cannot be extinguished
it cannot be ignored
it cannot be denied now
of the woman and the lord
the symbols in the churches
the parchments and the stones
the clues in all the searches
will lead you straight towards
the love she carried with her
the sweet music
for those with the ears to hear
when blood was washed away
the love remained
every time she called your name
it started in her heart
this miracle
and it stayed there after all
we waited for so long
to learn the truth
it’s been hiding
behind legends of you
in your book
the book of love
