No Room For Laughter lyrics

Freakshow

You have come to see our show
Our freakshow of the damned
But you don't really wanna know
The creatures buried in the sand
All this we're gonna give to you
Believe it for it is all too true
Because you have come to see our show
Our freakshow of the damned

You wanna see the creatures giving fright
The ones we have kept away from sight
And now they are brought into the light
The horrid children of the night
You wanna see the creatures giving fright
The ones we have kept away from sight
And now they are brought into the light
The horrid children of the night

Welcome ladies and gentlemen
To our Dungeon of Despair
On display for you
The children of the night

The wretched souls, that we have here
Will show you all
About pure and primal fear
Back to top

Coming

For centuries
Yeah a long long time
This planet has been
The scene of a crime
But now the time has come
To interfere... And so

We're coming down
We're coming now
We're coming down
We're coming now

There are demons below
Yeah underneath
They ain't there to glow
Or to please
We're tired of all
Evil now... And so
Back to top

Down

This time full of mourning
This place full of shame
This life full of sorrow
This heart full of pain

I see darkness rising
I see people go insane
I fear it's too late now
I fear it's all in vain

And in this time of emptiness
There's no room for laughter
In this world of greed and hate
Comes disaster
In this time of emptiness
There's no room for laughter
In this world
Comes disaster

These days full of agony
This world no belief
This being in disharmony
This soul full of grief
Well I've seen the face of evil
And I've seen the signs of fear
I feel the ground is shaking
I feel the end is near

Like leaves we're falling - DOWN
But who are we to blame
Like leaves we're falling - DOWN
And it's a crying shame
Back to top

Shadows

We've been living in a state of mind, of destruction
And thought that to this we must bow
We've been thinking that we couldn't have, no exception
But now

We're stepping out of the shadows and in to the sun
Doing what we can to have some fun
We're stepping out of the darkness and into the light
Doing what we can to feel alright

We wanted to get away from all of these, apprehensions
But we just didn't know how
But at long last we have understood, the real intention
And now
Back to top

Assimilation

Look at the freaks with the painted faces
Behold the goths, the mentally insane
See them break every rule of fashion
See them become the laugh of the day
Two decades entertaining the party
To them every day is Halloween
So listen up you clowns in dye and laces
You've got to learn...

Assimilation: to go with the flow
Don't try to rise above your station
Assimilation: the collective rules
Don't break society's formations

Look at their wardrobes of unfashionable design
Behold the geeks with the 80's hair
See the twisted outcasts of our land
Each funeral's guests of honour
They never seem to learn what's out of style
To them conformity's a vice
So listen good you ghouls of crimp and latex
Stay out of sight...

Lost Souls

How can we go on living
Like wasted rags
When everything is falling to pieces
And life is all but a gag
Well we have tried so many ways now
To find a meaning with our lives
And just to go on living
There's so much to sacrifice

This situation of damnation is it out of control
Can we really find salvation or are we lost souls
Is this really how we want it to be?

We are walking around like shadows
No one ever seem to look our way
We are always moving from place to place
There's no point for us to stay
It doesn't matter how hard we're trying
We never seem to find no peace
And what's the point of living
When death is the only release
Back to top

Fallen

Can't you see that the world is dying
Can't you see that the world is falling
Can't you hear that the world is crying
Can't you hear that the world is screaming

Look up at the stars above
shining down on a world in change
Look up at the stars above
shining down on you the fallen

The creatures of Neptune's domain
Have all died and gone away
The trees of old we used to know
Lie fallen dead along the ground

Look up at the stars above
shining down on a world that's dying
Look up at the stars above
shining down on you the fallen

Smitten [PornoPoP]

Dressed in hood and harness
I operate my switchblade with skill of high degree
Crowned as King Perversion
I'm whipping her to tears with a smile of glee
She never says no, won't admit to her mistakes
And a lashing of the whip is all that it takes
To get her back down on her knees
On familiar grounds, she does anything to please

She's my slave, oh so servile
She's here to please through submission to her master
So full of shame and sinful lust
Begging for punishment just a little faster

I mask myself with leather
To conceal my smile when the tears begin to fall
Crowned King Domination
I correct her with the leash, forcing her to crawl

Is it a game of passion
Or a hunt for self control
Anyhow you'll always obey the orders you are told
Out of fright and by the leash
She's on the floor so eager to please

Search

So you're living in sorrow
You're living in grief
So you're convinced that you'll never find a true belief

And you're living in darkness – You're living in pain
So you're convinced that there must be something you can blame

Well enlighten yourself and enlighten your soul
Search for your Holy Grail and a way to go
Just enlighten yourself and enlighten your soul
Search for the truth and find a way to go, go, go..

So you're living in anger
You're living in hate
So you're convinced that your misery life must be your fate

And you're living in excesses – You're living in sin
So you're convinced that there's nothing more in this world to win

Well open your eyes and open your mind
And realize that you've been living your life as blind
Just open your eyes and open your heart
And realize that darkness will tear your soul apart
Back to top

Now

You are born, you live and then you die - End of story
And you can't find no reason why - There's no glory
It's just the way it happens to be - Pure accidentally
There's nothing beyond what you can see - That is mentally

So come on now - Yeah you should know better
Come on now - You're gonna live forever
Come on now - Because the world is turning
Come on now - Yeah you should be learning now

To be alive is a struggle for you - And all is sorrow
The day is so hard to get through - Because the world is hollow
A feeling of emptiness inside - A lack of something
And your origin is denied - You come from nothing
Back to top

Valediction

I guess it came as a surprise
All the games and all the lies
But I can't justify my actions
Nor will I take the blame
I've got nothing to say

Deny everything
Admit nothing
And the only truth in my defense
I can't say it won't happen again

All those times I never lied
Truthfully and tongue-tied
What good is that now
When all regret is in vain
I've got something to say

Why tell the truth, on the ground & crawl like a worm
I've got nothing to say
When hollow lies... will make a better world
Back to top

Changes

It's not so easy living
It's not so easy loving
It's not so easy to go on and find some understanding
It's not so easy trying
It's not so easy learning
It's not so easy to find a way to keep your heart burning

And things they just don't last for long
Changes come along
No things they just don't last for long
Changes come along

But it's so easy stumbling
Yeah it's so easy falling
It's just so easy to lose it all if you get your hands on something
And it's so easy crying
Oh it's so easy dying
It's all too easy to be down and out when the tide is turning

Oh changes keep on coming
Yeah changes keep on coming
And things don't last for long

Sentence

There's no hope inside your soul
And you are living in a hole
A life in agony, is all that you can see
And everything is out of control.

The way you look upon you life
Is a sentence in itself
The way you choose to live your life
It could be Heaven or be Hell

Your life is just an endless pain
And you are living down the drain
A life in misery, is all that you can see
And everything is just in vain

Subsoil II compilation

Smitten

Dressed in veils of scarlet
She operates her switchblade with skill of high degree
Crowned as queen deception
She's working machinations with a smile of glee
I never look back and never learn from my mistakes
A glimpse of lasting love is all that it takes
To get me back down on my knees
On familiar grounds
The same emotional disease

So once again
You've recognized the type she was a trickster
So full of blame
You realise with pain that you will miss her

She masks herself with pretence
To conceal her smile when the axe begins to fall
Crowned as queen indifference
She stabbed for satisfaction and left me there to crawl
I never look back and never learn from my mistakes
A glimpse of lasting love is all that it takes
To get me back down on my knees
On familiar grounds
The same emotional disease

Is it a game of passion
Or a hunt for self control
Anyhow you'll always believe the love that you are told
Out of sight or out of reach
It's still the same emotional disease
