[Verse]
I got my shoes tied tight running through the night
The stars don’t wait they pull me straight
Every shadow’s a dare every breeze is a fight

[Chorus]
Speed speed speed of light
No brakes no stops just flight
I’m chasing the wind I’m burning the ground
Speed speed speed of sound

[Verse 2]
The moon’s a clock its ticking loud
I race the echoes I break the clouds
Every heartbeat’s a drum every second’s a crowd

[Prechorus]
Faster than the dreams I dream
Faster than the world can scream

(solo)

[Chorus]
Speed speed speed of light
No brakes no stops just flight
I’m chasing the wind I’m burning the ground
Speed speed speed of sound

[Bridge]
The road is alive it’s eating my fear
Every turn a roar every mile unclear
But I laugh at the risk I’m already near

Speed of Light

Text:
[Verse]
The clouds are pillows stitched with gold
A sky that whispers tales untold
I chase the moon it runs away
Each step dissolves the ground like clay

[Chorus]
Dreamland where nothing stays
Dreamland where nights outshine days
Dreamland where we fade but we fly
Dreamland where the stars never lie

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The rivers hum they know my name
Trees bow down like it’s a game
A castle built of shifting sand
Slips through my fingers can’t withstand

[Prechorus]
But oh the glow it pulls me near
A silent song I ache to hear

[Chorus]
Dreamland where nothing stays
Dreamland where nights outshine days
Dreamland where we fade but we fly
Dreamland where the stars never lie

(solo)

[Bridge]
Is this escape or is it a cage
A fleeting joy or an endless stage
The mirrors laugh they bend and break
I lose myself with every quake

[Chorus]
Dreamland where nothing stays
Dreamland where nights outshine days
Dreamland where we fade but we fly
Dreamland where the stars never lie

Dreamland

[Verse]
I see the rain fall
Washing the ground
A mirror of my heart
Without a sound
You walk through my thoughts
Uninvited
Your shadow lingers
Unrequited

[Chorus]
Touch my soul
Like the sun touches the sea
Break my walls
Set the wild in me free
Touch my soul
Let your heartbeat show
Give me something real
Something to know

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The wind whispers secrets
I can't decode
A language of longing
A heavy load
You move like a flame
Flickering bright
I reach for the warmth
But you're out of sight

[Prechorus]
Every step closer feels like a mile
Every word you say
A crooked smile

[Chorus]
Touch my soul
Like the sun touches the sea
Break my walls
Set the wild in me free
Touch my soul
Let your heartbeat show
Give me something real
Something to know

(solo)

[Bridge]
Stars don't shine without the dark
Love won't grow without a spark
Say the words
Take the leap
Dive in deep
Dive in deep

[Chorus]
Touch my soul
Like the sun touches the sea
Break my walls
Set the wild in me free
Touch my soul
Let your heartbeat show
Give me something real
Something to know

Touch My Soul

Do you remember

Куплет 1
Он строит трон из страха и лжи,
Наши братья лежат в чужой земле.
Говорит о великой стране,
Но уводит нас в прошлое, в тьме.

Припев
Ложный лидер, слышишь крик народа?
Мы не за войну, не за кровь, не за годы.
Мы за будущее, за правду, за свет,
Россия — это мы, а не твой бред.

(solo)

Куплет 2
Старая мечта — советский миф,
Но мы живём в двадцать первом веке, слышь?
Ты держишь мир на краю обрыва,
Твои обещания — только мина.

Припев
Ложный лидер, слышишь крик народа?
Мы не за войну, не за кровь, не за годы.
Мы за будущее, за правду, за свет,
Россия — это мы, а не твой бред.

(solo)

Бридж
Сколько жизней ты ещё украдёшь?
Сколько матерей ты в траур оденешь?
Мы не враги — мы один народ,
Но ты ведёшь страну в исход.

Финал
Ложный лидер, время пришло,
Твоё царство из песка давно упало.
Мы останемся, мы будем стоять,
А твоя империя — в прах упадёт опять.

Ложный лидер

Verse 1
Deep in the woods, where the silence breathes,
I lay my burdens down among the trees.
The city fades, the noise, the fight,
Here the shadows turn to healing light.

Chorus
Deep in the woods, I find my way,
The forest whispers what words can’t say.
Deep in the woods, I learn to stand,
The earth beneath, it holds my hand.

(solo)

Verse 2
Steps are slower, the air runs clean,
I meet myself in places I’ve never been.
Old scars soften, the heart beats true,
In the quiet green, I’m born anew.

Chorus
Deep in the woods, I find my way,
The forest whispers what words can’t say.
Deep in the woods, I learn to stand,
The earth beneath, it holds my hand.

(solo)

Bridge
Maybe healing takes its time,
Like roots that grow beneath the pines.
I’m not alone, I’m understood,
By the endless arms of the endless woods.

Final Chorus
Deep in the woods, I find my song,
The place I needed was here all along.
Deep in the woods, I’m not afraid,
The soul I lost has found its shade.

Deep in the Woods

Intro (spoken)
Yo, they say, “Wouldn’t it be cool to live in the past?”
Nah, man… you wouldn’t last a day.

Verse 1
Slow Wi-Fi got me losin’ my mind,
Imagine no net, no phone, no online.
Back in the day? Nah, not for me,
Middle Ages full of dirt and disease.

No shower, no light, no doc on call,
One little cut, that’s the end of it all.
You think knights and castles, romance and pride,
But it smelled so bad, you’d rather just hide.

Chorus
No way back, I’m built for today,
Give me my future, don’t take it away.
No way back, I ain’t that strong,
Modern soul, that’s where I belong.

(solo)

Verse 2
Industrial times, machines go loud,
Kids in the mines, streets blacked out.
Sixteen hours, no weekend rest,
You call that the “good old days”? Man, that’s a mess.

Then the world wars, trenches of mud,
Millions gone, rivers of blood.
You think you’re tough? You’d break in two,
History ain’t a place designed for you.

Chorus
No way back, I’m built for today,
Give me my future, don’t take it away.
No way back, I ain’t that strong,
Modern soul, that’s where I belong.

(solo)

Bridge
2008, man, the net was slow,
But at least I had memes and a place to scroll.
Now I need that speed, that instant vibe,
Past ain’t golden when you’re still alive.

Final Chorus
No way back, I’m wired for now,
I need that flow, don’t ask me how.
No way back, don’t turn that dial,
The past looks cool but it ain’t my style.

Outro (spoken)
So yeah… keep your castles, keep your steam trains,
I’ll keep my Wi-Fi, even if it’s lame.

No Way Back

Text:
[Verse]
I saw your shadow on the wall
A quiet echo in the hall
My heart leaned forward
Tried to call
But silence wrapped it all

[Prechorus]
Your laughter lingers in the air
I turn around
You're never there

[Chorus]
Are you my soul mate
My missing piece
The rhythm in my heartbeat's release
I keep on searching
Through time and space
Hoping to find your face

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The moonlight paints your name in gold
A story waiting to be told
The stars
They whisper
Bold yet cold
Where are you to hold

(solo)

[Prechorus]
I see you dancing in my dreams
But waking tears unravel seams

[Chorus]
Are you my soul mate
My compass true
The map that always leads me to you
I keep on walking
Through night and day
Hoping you'll come my way

Soul Mate

Text:
[Verse]
The flags are torn
The wind won't cry
Ashes fall from a faded sky
The streets are quiet
The echoes loud
Heroes buried beneath the shroud

[Chorus]
Our heroes die
They burn
They fade
Carving their names in a fleeting blade
They rise
They fight
They touch the sky
But in the end
Our heroes die

(solo)

[Verse 2]
A shadow moves where light once danced
Time steals away their fleeting chance
Their voices whisper through the rain
A bittersweet and haunting refrain

[Prechorus]
But we remember
Oh
We hold on
In every heart
They're never gone

[Chorus]
Our heroes die
They burn
They fade
Carving their names in a fleeting blade
They rise
They fight
They touch the sky
But in the end
Our heroes die

(solo)

[Bridge]
Not every flame can burn forever
Not every chain can hold together
Yet in their fall
They teach us flight
A spark of hope in endless night

[Chorus]
Our heroes die
They burn
They fade
Carving their names in a fleeting blade
They rise
They fight
They touch the sky
But in the end
Our heroes die

Outro:
lemmy and ozzy are dead

Our Heroes Die

Text:
Verse 1
Six days, six nights, nothing inside,
Laying in a bed where the walls don’t hide.
Stomach quiet, but the mind too loud,
Breathing through the silence, I’m not too proud.

They fed me slow, spoon by spoon,
Bitter little soups in a sterile room.
Body weak, but my will still stands,
No tears in my eyes, just shaking hands.

Chorus
Empty, empty, six days gone,
But I’m still here, I’m holding on.
Boris cries, but I learned this way:
Strength is silence when you can’t say.

(solo)

Verse 2
A tube in my side, I didn’t want to eat,
Metal in the veins, not bread, not meat.
The hunger cut deep, but it didn’t define,
I’m more than my body, my soul’s still mine.

People talk pain like it’s fashion or fame,
But real hunger don’t play that game.
No spotlight, no crowd to impress,
Just a fight with yourself in a faded dress.

Chorus
Empty, empty, six days gone,
But I’m still here, I’m holding on.
You can whine, but I choose to stay:
Strength is silence when you can’t say.

(solo)

Bridge
I saw the edge, but I didn’t fall,
Learned that nothing is stronger than all.
A breath, a step, a little bite,
That’s how you crawl back into the light.

Final Chorus
Empty, empty, but not for long,
I turned my weakness into this song.
Hunger fades, but the scars remain,
Proof that I walked through fire and pain.

Six Days Empty

Text:
[Verse]
Neon lights they paint the sky
Shadows stretch as people fly
Laughter cracks the pavement wide
The city's heart won't ever hide

[Prechorus]
The clock says stop but we just go
The night is young we steal the show

[Chorus]
Saturday night we’re alive we’re on fire
Spinning in circles chasing desire
Oh oh oh we burn so bright
This is our time Saturday night

(solo)

[Verse 2]
Leather boots on cobblestones
Echoes bounce we’re not alone
The moon is drunk it winks and sways
The stars are lost in smoky haze

[Prechorus]
The music hits it takes control
Feel the rhythm shake your soul

(solo)

[Chorus]
Saturday night we’re alive we’re on fire
Spinning in circles chasing desire
Oh oh oh we burn so bright
This is our time Saturday night

Saturday Night
