Gift "You'll Never Be Accepted" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Gift"

I walked along through a desert sand

The sun was really burning

And when I'm dry I'll understand

That water we must earn

My heart is filled with a real great pain

When I see the whole world laughing

'Cause things I do in my inner vain

Seems to them only nothing

These few lines I just told to you

I wrote them when I was fourteen

Just now I see they got reality

How long it last we'll see

My heart is filled with a real great pain

When I see the whole world laughing

'Cause things I do in my inner vain

Seems to them only nothing

[My heart is filled with a real great pain] 2x

These few lines I just told to you

I wrote them when I was fourteen

Just now I see they got reality

How long it last we'll see

I walked along through a desert sand

The sun was really burning

Gift "Drugs" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Gift"

I want you to see

That drugs destroy your health and kill your body

Yes, it's a real fact

That drugs do split your mind and seize your thinking

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

Look inside yourself

You must realize the world around you

Many lovely things

Can show you how nice the world around you is?

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

If you want to take it

No one of us all will sentence your deed

'Cause at last we know

It's your turn to spill your humanity

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

Gift "Game Of Skill" (lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Gift"

Last night when I walked along the street

I thought about the girls and their attraction

Listen friend, listen to my words

It's not easy to keep them by your side

I had enough girls in my bygone life

To tell you things that no one ever told you

To keep girls and to be not afraid

Is everytime a serious game of skill

[For love is only a feeling

Feeling for your girl

Do you think about the time

You were together?] 2x

Tell me my friends: Have you ever had a girl? No

So listen to my words 

If you mean it's easy to keep them by your side

Then it's not right

For love is only a feeling

A feeling for your girl

Don't look at the other girls

So maybe she sets free

One day you will come to know the girl

That wants to stay and keep you by the chain

You think you've finished finally the game

But wait- after marriage you'll continue game of skill
