Vanilla Ninja: Love is War
lyrics

Kingdom Burning Down

built a castle for yourself
you left me drowning
like a hunter in the night
i was your prey
and your heart is cold and dark
you left me bleeding
your plague was meant to kill
i'm still here
i'm the amazone
that you've brought out in me
fighting for my destiny
so go and watch your

kingdom burning down
and there's no one here to save you
cause you're all alone
ay ya ya wild horses running free
and don't you try to find me
watch your kingdom burn
see it burning down!
see it burning down!

it's the warrior in me
i'll keep on fighting
it's too late to beg - please
cause I have gone
if you dare to come too close
i've got the weapons
don't you dare come in my way
cause I'll strike back!
i'm the amazone
that you've brought out in me
fighting for my destiny
so go and watch your

kingdom burning down
and there's no one here to save you
cause you're all alone
ay ya ya wild horses running free
and don't you try to find me
watch your kingdom burn
see it burning down!
see it burning down!

i have sailed all seven seas
conquered hearts of enemies
i have suffered for my dreams
made a deal with eternity

kingdom burning down
and there's no one here to save you
cause you're all alone
ay ya ya wild horses running free
and don't you try to find me
watch your kingdom burn
see it burning down!
see it burning down!

Dangerzone

Lock me up in chains
want to be with me
think you know the score

feel my burning flames
wanna hold me tight,
wanna be adored
feel my curse

welcome to the dangerzone
feel the poison in my veins
tell me are you strong enough
to keep up with my life
welcome to the dangerzone
what you see ain't what you get
let us fly this aeroplane
tonight

did you see the sign
did you read the warning in my eyes
got a heavy load
gotta stay on track when things explode

and together we'll go through the fire
will you stay by my side?

welcome to the dangerzone
feel the poison in my veins
tell me are you strong enough
to keep up with my life
welcome to the dangerzone
what you see ain't what you get
let us fly this aeroplane
tonight!

come with me
feel the need
you're mine tonight
i will win this fight
come with me
hold the key
of destiny

welcome to the dangerzone
feel the poison in my veins
tell me are you strong enough
to keep up with my life
welcome to the danger zone
what you see ain't what you get
let us fly this aeroplane
tonight

The Band That Never Existed

had it all figured out - the story
had groupies in your bed

had the studio booked for recordings
and the video in your head

wow - you're so damn incredible
wow - each move is a strike
wow - you're so irresistible
go - get a life!

this is your show
you're playing all by yourself
all on your own -
no one is listening
except for your neighbours
and they really hate
the music you play
cause you're part of the band
that never existed!

sent the cd`s to all the agents
but there was nothing to hear
booked a limo for the red carpet
but the doorman said - "no"!

this is your show
you're playing all by yourself
all on your own -
no one is listening
except for your neighbours
and they really hate
the music you play
cause you're part of the band
that never existed!

wow - you're dreaming your life away
wow - you're missing the glow
wow - you're not irresistible
go - go get a life!

this is your show
you're playing all by yourself
all on your own -
no one is listening!
except for your neighbours
and they really hate
the music you play
cause you're part of the band
that never existed!

the band that never existed!

Shadows On The Moon

on pieces
of paper
cryptic signs that i can't read

i'm lost in
this ghost town
i walk alone on freezing streets

bridge
aimlessly I roam
without a ticket home

shadows on the moon
bittersweet insomnia
shadows on the moon
and the rain still falls like shards of glass
beneath the northern star
reflections of a lonesome heart
shadows on the moon

no promise
no answers
to carry you through dreamless nights

and cracks in
the dark sky
quietly swallow your cries

you talk to
a stranger
he says you "better not look back"

keep crossing
the wasteland
before the day breaks

shadows on the moon
bittersweet insomnia
shadows on the moon
and the rain still falls like shards of glass
sparkles in the gloom
shimmering in silver light
shadows on the moon

sparkles in the gloom
shimmering in silver light
shadows on the moon



Black Symphony

black light from a rising sun
too dark to find my way home
black rain from a clear blue sky
feel cold - my heart is frozen
black dress on a wedding day
church stands all deserted
i've tried to find
some brighter note
inside my mind
i finally wrote

a black symphony
when darkness steals the light from day
black symphony
and all my colours fade away
it overshadows my whole life
this broken melody
black symphony

black leaves on a florid tree
no birds - silent springtime
black tears in a smiling face
no one who would dry them
black tones in a lullaby
so strange - it makes me shiver
i've tried to find
some brighter note
inside my mind
i finally wrote

a black symphony
when darkness steals the light from day
black symphony
and all my colours fade away
it overshadows my whole life
this broken melody
black symphony

since you've been gone
this house is not a home
i raise my head up to the sky
look for a sign it helps me by
my hope remains
one day I will erase...

a black symphony
when darkness steals the light from day
black symphony
and all my colours fade away
it overshadows my whole life
this broken melody
black symphony



Pray

i don't wanna wake up this way
i don't wanna hear what they say
cause I'm feeling way too small
will this rushing world hear my call?

i am just one person passing by
a million different windows in sight
each one hides a life
does anybody know where we go?

i pray - for someone to understand
cause I'm lost inside this labyrinth
of thoughts that never end
and I pray - as people pass me by
that they won't see the tears I cry
the tears I cry

i'm a prisoner with my own key
don't we all just wish to be free?
still we're waiting for the chance
although we hold it right in our hands

i pray - for someone to understand
cause I'm lost inside this labyrinth
of thoughts that never end
and I pray - as people pass me by
that they won't see the tears I cry
won't see the tears I cry

and I pray - for someone to understand
cause I'm lost inside this labyrinth
of thoughts that never end
and I pray - as people pass me by
that they won't see the tears I cry



Battlefield

you had me from the start
although you never
loved me with your heart
i've come to understand
the fact that you just
love me as a friend

hear the voices in my mind
still I'm messing with my heart
until I'm going crazy
and now I know

got stuck on a battlefield
(go on) back off (o-oh)
it's not real
my mind is a fighter's shield
but I'm not made of steel

got stuck on a battlefield
(it's right) so wrong (o-oh)
and it feels like poison
still I'm standing tall
still I'm standing tall

illusionary dreams
pass through my veins and
suggest your feelings might change
but your kisses never last
we have no future
and barely had a past

every single time we touch
feel I need you way too much
until I'm going crazy
and now I know

got stuck on a battlefield
(go on) back off (o-oh)
it's not real
my mind is a fighter's shield
but I'm not made of steel

got stuck on a battlefield
(it's right) so wrong (o-oh)
and it feels like poison
still I'm standing tall



Spirit Of The Dawn

i remember the times when I was a child
and the world was full of grace
the wind would whisper of miracles
and a secret magic place
but the sun went down and the first night fell
like a shadow upon my life
and though all the colours slowly turned to grey
i never lost my faith

in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that guides me home
to the spirit of the dawn

for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn

and here I'm wandering through a city of sin
with the creatures of the night
and we shared the suffering and the tears
and the war machines are roaring loud
in this neverending fight
and in a world of broken promises
with a sky that's cracked
ripped and torn
we'll die just to be reborn

in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that calls me home
to the spirit of the dawn

for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn

and I will never lose my faith
in the truth behind my prayers
i keep searching for the desert rain
'cause I know that it will wash away my pain



Insane In Vain

you got me blinded by your vicious lights
you took my past and threw it
against your wall of fate

you got me, got me, got me good
you thought you had me on your hook
wish I could erase the time that you took
that you took from me

insane in vain
who do you think you are
i'm still standing
i'm still breathing
don't hang your shit on me
insane in vain
this time you've gone too far
who do you think you are

you pinned me down
you had it all worked out
a plastic cage
you thought that I would move right in

you got me, got me, got me good
you thought you had me on your hook
wish I could erase the time that you took
that you took from me

insane in vain
who do you think you are
i'm still standing
i'm still breathing
don't hang your shit on me
insane in vain
this time you've gone too far
who do you think you are

and maybe I should have known before
too many signs that I ignored
that you'd be a dead end street to me
there was nothing that you could give
now rage is all that you left me with

insane in vain
who do you think you are
i'm still standing
i'm still breathing
don't hang your shit on me
insane in vain
this time you've gone too far
who do you think you are



Bad Girls

here we are
it's clear to me that things aren't working out
we've come so far
but still you're in doubt

since the start
you knew that I'm no innocent girl
'cause in my heart
there's something burning
a voice that's yearning for so much more

bad girls - always on the run
playing their game, leaving ruins behind
bad girls - breaking the rules
smile in your face while stealing your jewels

face it - I just wanna be free
feel sorry for you if you can't see
i'm just living my life - bad girl style

so you say
that I don't give a damn about you
the price I pay
for staying true to who I am

don't wanna leave
so don't make leaving all that's left for me
just let me breathe
'cause there's something burning
a voice that's yearning inside of me

bad girls - always on the run
playing their game, leaving ruins behind
bad girls - breaking the rules
smile in your face while stealing your jewels

face it - I just wanna be free
feel sorry for you if you can't see
that I'm just living my life - bad girl style

don't try to lock me in a golden cage
'cause I'm not a doll that you can show around
and I won't hesitate to turn the page
one... two... three... four...

bad girls - always on the run
playing their game, leaving ruins behind
bad girls - breaking the rules
smile in your face while stealing your jewels

face it - I just wanna be free
feel sorry for you if you can't see
that I'm just living my life - bad girl style



Silence

in this room of silence
i'm hanging on a string
leave the past behind me
i can fly with broken wings

my heart is suffering
can't wait for my rescue
i know that someone out there
is lonely, too …

i don't wanna be all alone
for love I'll always fight
i don't want to be left alone
i will find the shore, the place, the time
all alone
help me find a way
i don't want to be left alone…anymore

is there no one listening?
can no one hear my plea?
sew a dress of memories
is there no one meant for me?

through the deepest oceans
let us find a coast to seek
Iiknow that someone out there
is searching like me

i don't wanna be all alone
for love I'll always fight
i don't want to be left alone
i will find the shore, the place, the time
all alone
help me find a way
i don't want to be left alone…anymore

let the wind guide us
until we find tranquillity
why don't you find me?
please come and find me

i don't wanna be all alone
for love I'll always fight
i don't want to be left alone
i will find the shore, the place, the time
all alone
help me find a way
i don't want to be left alone…anymore
