DISC 1

1:1 REFLEKTOr - Trapped in a prison, in a prism of light. Alone in the darkness, a darkness of white. We fell in love, alone on a stage, in the reflective age.

Entre la nuit, la nuit et laurore. Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts. If this is heaven, I dont know what its for. If I cant find you there, I dont care. I thought I found a way to enter; it was just a reflector. I thought I found the connector; it was just a reflector. Just a reflector.

The signals we send are deflected again. Were so connected, but are we even friends? We fell in love when I was 19, and now were staring at a screen. Entre la nuit, la nuit et laurore. Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts. If this is heaven, I need something more. Just a place to be alone, cause youre my home. I thought I found a way to enter; it was just a reflector. I thought I found the connector; it was just a reflector. Just a reflector. Just a reflector.

Just a reflection of a reflection of a reflection, but I see you on the other side. We all got things to hide. (Alright lets go back). Our song it skips on little silver disks. Our love is plastic, and they break it to bits. I want to break free, but will they break me down, down, down, dont mess around. I thought I found a way to enter; it was just a reflector. I thought I found the connector; it was just a reflector. Just a reflector. Thought you were praying to the resurrector; turns out it was just a reflector. Just a reflector.

exist. But we exist. Daddy its true, Im different from you, but tell me why they treat me like this. If you turned away, what would I say? Not the first betrayed by a kiss. Maybe its true, theyre staring at you when you walk in a room. Tell em its fine, stare if you like, but just let us through. Just let us through.

1:2 WE EXIST - Theyre walking around, head full of sound, acting like we dont exist. They walk in the room and stare right through you, talking like we dont

Theyre down on their knees, begging us please, praying that we dont exist. Daddy its fine, Im used to em now, but tell me why they treat me like this. Its cause we do it like this. Maybe its true, theyre staring at you when you walk in a room. Tell em its fine, stare if you like, but just let us through. Just let us through. Let em stare, let em stare, if thats all they can do. But Id lose my heart if I turned away from you. Oh, Daddy dont turn away, you know that Im so scared. But will you watch me drown?

You know were going nowhere. We know that were young, and no shit were confused. But will you watch us drown? What are you so afraid to lose? Youre down on your knees, begging us please, praying that we dont exist. Youre down on your knees, begging us please, praying that we dont exist. But we exist. We exist. We exist. We exist. We exist. Maybe if you hang together, you can make the changes in our hearts. And if you hang together, you can change us, just where should you start?

Hit me with your flashbulb eyes. Hit me with your flashbulb eyes. You know Ive got nothing to hide. You know Ive got nothing. You know Ive got nothing.

1:3 FLASHBULB EYES - What if the camera really do take your soul? Oh no! What if the camera really do take your soul? Oh no!

-they say you dont mind. But here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. And the missionaries, they tell us we will be left behind. Been left behind a thousand times, a thousand times. If you want to be righteous, if you want to be righteous, get in line. Cause here comes the night time.

1:4 HErE COMES THE NIGHT TIME - When the sun goes down, when the sun goes down you head inside. Cause the lights dont work, yeah nothing works-

Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Look out, here comes the night time. Here comes the night, here comes the night time. Look out, here comes the night time. They say heavens a place, yeah, heavens a place and they know where it is. But you know where it is--its behind the gate they wont let you in. And when they hear the beat, coming from the street, they lock the door. But if theres no music up in heaven, then whats it for?

When I hear the beat, the spirits on me like a live wire. A thousand horses running wild in a city on fire. But it starts in your feet, then it goes to your head. And if you cant feel it, then the roots are dead. And if youre the judge, then what is our crime? Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Here comes the night time. Look out! Here comes the night time. Now here comes the night, here comes the night. Look out, here comes the night. Here comes the night. Here comes the night.

Here comes the night, the night, the night, the night time! Now the preachers they talk up on the satellite. If youre looking for hell, just try looking inside. Here comes the night time, the night time. Here comes the night time, the night time. Here comes the night time, the night time. Here comes the night time, the night time. Here comes the night time, the night time. Here comes the night time, the night time.

When you look in the sky, just try looking inside. God knows what you might find. When you look in the sky, just try looking inside. God knows what you might find. Here comes the night time.

normal too. Well, are you? Are you? Im so confused. Am I a normal person? You know, I cant tell if Im a normal person, its true. I think Im cool enough, but am I cruel enough, am I cruel enough for you? And they will break you down till everything is normal now, I know. And they will break you down till everything is normal now, I know.

1:5 NOrMAL PErSOn - Is anything as strange as a normal person? Is anyone as cruel as a normal person? Waiting after school for you, they want to know if you, if youre

They take their tea at two, all the normal people, they do. They burn the jungle down, while they were sleeping, it grew. You dream in English now, in proper English, look how youre just the same as me; its through. And they will break you down till everything is normal now, I know. And they will break you down till everyone is normal now, I know. If thats whats normal now, I dont wanna know. If thats whats normal now, Mama dont make me go!

When they get excited, they try to hide to it, look at those normals go. When they get excited, they try to hide it, look at those normals go. When they get excited, they try to hide it, look at those normals go. When they get excited, they try to hide it--no! And they will break you down till everything is normal now, I know. And they will break you down till everything is normal now, I know. If thats whats normal now, I dont wanna know. If thats whats normal now

Maybe if you hang together, you can make the changes in our hearts. And if you hang together, you can change us, just where should you start? Ive never really ever met a normal person. Ive never really ever met a normal person. Ive never really ever met a normal person. Ive never really ever met a normal person like you. How do you do. How do you do.

1:6 YOU ALrEADY KnOw - Sometimes it moves so fast, sometimes it moves so fast. If you stop to ask, its already passed. So how can you move so slow?

How can you move so slow? You miss it if you dont, you miss it if you dont already know, already know, already know, already know, already know. When your love is right, when your love is right, you cant sleep at night. Youve been sleeping just fine. But when your love is bad, when your love is bad, I dont know why youre so sad.

She said, Well, how do I know, when I know, when I know? You already know. Well then he said, Well, how do I know, when I know, when I really know? You already know.

you, cause they got no heart. Im the one that will follow you. Youre my Joan of Arc. Joan of Arc. You had a vision they couldnt see so they put you down. But everything that you said would happen, it came around. And theyre the ones that put you down cause they got no heart. But Im the one that will follow you. Youre my Joan of Arc.

1:7 JOAn OF ArC - Youre the one that they used to hate, but they like you now. And everything that goes away, will be returned somehow. Theyre the ones that spit on

Now they tell you that youre their MUSE, yeah, theyre so inspired. But where were they, when they called your name, and they lit the fire? When the voices came you cut your hair, but youre still confused. But Im the one with the heavy heart, cause I follow you.

My Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh), tell the boys their time is through. Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh), tell the boys Ill follow you, my Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh). When the boys are over you, Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh), tell the boys Ill follow you. I follow you. Joan its true, I really wanna know you.

Tu dis que tu es mon juge, mais je ne te crois pas. Alors tu dis que je suis une sainte, mais ce nest pas moi. Jentends des voix, mais ce nest pas moi. Je ne suis pas Jeanne dArc. And if you shoot, you better hit your mark. Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh), tell the boys their time is through. Joan of Arc (Jeanne dArc, ah ooh), tell the boys Ill follow you.

2:2 AwFUL SOUnD (Oh Eurydice) - You and I were born in a little town, before the awful sound started coming down. Oh no. Oh, you came home from

I was so disappointed you didnt want me. Oh, how could it be, Eurydice. I was standing beside you, by a frozen sea. Will you ever get free?

Wanna feel the seasons passing, wanna feel the spring of supersymmetry. Supersymmetry, supersymmetry, supersymmetry. Its been a while since Ive been to see you. Dont know where, but youre not with me. Heard a voice like an echo, but it came from me Supersymmetry, supersymmetry. Supersymmetry, supersymmetry. Ah lalalalala - Ah lalalalala - Ah lalalalala - Ah lalalala. Supersymmetry. Supersymmetry.
