The Lyrics 

HOMELESS
(Maag / Maag)
 

WHERE I COME FROM I'VE BEEN RUNNING AWAY CAUSE I DIDN'T LEARNT NASTY GAMES TO PLAY

I'M HOMELESS

WHERE I COME FROM THERE IS NOT MY HOME CAUSE HOME ISN'T JUST THERE WHERE YOU COME FROM

I'M HOMELESS

THEY PUT YOU IN A ROOM AND LOOK DOWN AT YOU

CAUSE THEY THINK THEY ARE SOMETHING BETTER THAN YOU

WHERE I COME FROM, PEOPLE DISAPPEAR YOU CAN NO-ONE TRUST NO YOU CAN NO-ONE TRUST

NOW I'M HOMELESS

NOW THAT I'M HERE, I WILL NEVER GO AWAY

BUT YOU SAD THERE'S NO PLACE TO STAY FOR A HOMELESS

THEN YOU'RE HOMELESS, HOMELESS, HOMELESS AND I'M HOMELESS TOO


NEW RELIGION
(maag/maag)
 

I CAN HEAR YOU TALKING

TALKING ABOUT A NEW RELIGION

I SEE YOU MAKING MONEY

MONEY WITH YOUR NEW RELIGION

YOU PROMISE THEM POWER

RELIEF FOR AN HOUR

THEY GIVE YOU THERE MONEY

THAT'S ALL THAT YOU WANT !

BUT THEY GIVE YOU MORE

YOU DON'T CARE THAT IT'S TRUE 2x

AND WHEN THEY SAY THEY LOVE YOU

THEY WOULD DIE FOR YOU 2x

THEY GIVE AWAY THERE DREAMS

THEY GIVE AWAY THERE MEMORIES

THEY GIVE AWAY THERE IDEOLOGIES

THEY GIVE AWAY THEMSELF TO YOU

THEMSELF TO YOU IT'S TRUE

The houses we burn (will Be Burned Forever)
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag
 

I never say there's nothing I can do / I won't believe there's anything I can't get through / but sometimes I feel all alone and lost / it look's like there is no-one I can trust /

oh 'cause I know

the houses we burn will be burned forever / some things we destroy will be destroyed forever / hearts that we break will be broken forever /

no-one recoils from any kind of exploitation / but some day I know we have to pay the price /

the houses we burn will be burned forever / dreams we destroy will be destroyed forever / the children we abuse will be abused forever / but nothing we build will be built forever / nothing we built is made forever / 


Racism
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag
 

does the job I have to do matters / does the money I earn matters / does the color of my skin matters / does the school that I was in matters /

or is it all just wasting time / trying to change your mind / trying to change you're point of view /

and is it all just wasting time / trying to change your mind / I guess there is nothing new / (you will believe what you always do) /

does my age matters / does my hair matters / does the sort of clothes I wear matters /

and I know whats on youre mind / you dispise the whole mankind / Your a racism / and we living in a world of racism.


A Mask With A Smile
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag
 

I am an honest man / married an honest wife / we live an honest life / but sometimes I feel that something goes wrong /

I have an accurate plan / for every day of my live / but something seems to be planed, just to goes wrong /

I wear a mask with a smile / every day of my live / I wouldn't try to brake out / this couldn't be the meaning of life /

I never Drive to fast / I never walk to slow / when I cross the road to the other side / and no-one cares when I'm gone

I don't like where I live / and I hate my job / I worked overtime / but sometimes I felt no-one cares when I'm gone /

don't like the colour of my skin / I don't like the skin I'm in / I lived overtime / but sometimes I felt no-one cares when I'm gone / 


Follow The Routine
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag
 

When I'm feeling old and lonely / When I'm feeling sick and sad / When I'm feeling cold and hungry / and there is nothing in my head /

I just follow the routine...

When I've lost my motivation / When I've lost my sense of humour / and all my friends said that I'm mad / Would you come aroundand hold my hand ? /

I just follow the routine...

Oh isn't that sarcastic?


Piercing Into My Soul

or

Room Without A View
Text: Maag / Musik: Brasser
 

Dreams that always talk to me / telling me about war and power / dreams that always talk to me / telling me about corruption / dreams that always walk on me /

I close my ears / shut my door / so that I can't hear it anymore / but I can't stop this dreams piercing into my soul /

I close my mind / I close my heart / I can't hear it anymore / but I cant stop this dreams piercing into my soul /

I don't dare go out the door / I don't even make a move / so I can do nothing wrong / and I talk to no one else / I don't answer the phone / so I can't say anything wrong /

when will I finally find my sleep ? /when will I finally find my calm ? / when will I be born again ? / I know I'll never find my sleep / and I will never find my calm / until I overcome myself and begin / to accept /

I close my heart / but I can't stop this dreams piercing into my soul / and my eyes turn red / and my heart has turned to stone / but I can't stop this dreams piercing into my soul /

I never go outside my room / and I don't watch TV / I can't see it anymore /

I have a room without a view / and I don't really care anymore / except this dreams piercing into my soul / 


Mystery Train 1999


Devil‘s Dance
Text: Muller / Musik: Maag
 

When I’m laughing, between the sacred preachers show
When I’m speaking, together with the presidents blow

When I’m dreaming, between the real financial times
When I’m sleeping, at all the greatest social crimes

  Feeling as a stranger in this part
  Missunderstanding creature art

When I’m living, even in these deadly moments
When I’m thinking, awakening in the unreal contents

When I’m laughing, in all moments of humans pain
When I’m trying, they wants insurance and my blame

  Feeling as a stranger in this part
  Missunderstanding creature art

    Welcome in the city of circumstances,
    hear me as a victim of devil‘s dance
    Showing you three wishes of your past,
    you’ll be away .... what you’re thrown away


Heaven
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag

We buy things
not knowing what they are for,
but we can't see that this can't go on.

Making money.
Don't know what we're working for.
So tired, we just want to go home.

REF:  But when, when we're in heaven,
          we'll see everything that's supposed to be,
          everything that we're supposed to feel,
          everything that was ever worth having --
          this is to be with the one we love.

Always waiting.
Forgot just what I'm waiting for.
Feeling tired and I want to go home.
 

We're killing humans.
Don't know what we're fighting for.
We're only happy that we're not alone.


If Only I Could
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag
 

If I only could do what they expect me to do
If I only could do what they want

If I only could stay when you want me to do stay
If I only could say what you want to hear

     If I only could

If I only could do what I wanted to do
If I only could go where I want

If I only could say that I hate it
not to say what I want

     If I only could

If I only could do
If I only could smile

If I only could say that I love you.



Nothing can be changed
Text: Maag / Musik: Brasser
 

     how can you close your eyes
     how can you sleep at night
     how can you look away
     from what's wrong in your own life
     how can you sit behind your TV and say there's
     nothing you can change that's what you are

     and I hope it (will) never comes this way,
     so that I begin to belive that it had to be this way

     and I hope it (will) never comes this way
     so that I start to accept that nothing can be changed

                                nothing can be changed

     how can you expect that
     the hole world would change
     how can you hear me cry
     if you can't hear yourself
     how can we hope that it will be better
     although we're not willing to going further
     then just to day

     how can we close our eyes
     how can we sleep at night
     how can we look away when hungry people die
     how can we lay back in our car
     and say: "theres nothing we can change that's
     the way we are, and we ever will be."



One Step Behind Me
Text: Maag / Musik: Maag  April 98
 

I don't even smile when you laugh
I just think while you dream
I just walk when you travel
I just eat while you dine

I hang around while you relax
And I'm bored if you cool down
I'm just angry while you sad
And I've resign while you still hope
 

And now, now that you're gone
I realize, that all the time
I was looking fore you I just can't see
you where behind me all the time.


But now, now you're away,
I realize  I was so blind
Or was I just dumb?  I could not see
that you where always behind me

I don't dream when I sleep
I don't sing on my way
I can't see all the trees
On a bright sunny day

I can't hold on and enjoy
What we reached today
I can't show how I feel
That's what all my friends say

You where just one step behind me.
