1.
A random act of kindness, writing's on the wall. Sleepwalking to the edge prisoner of the pledge. Commitment's holy oath, soldier's honour at stake; & the generals keep pushing for their medals sake. A random act of kindness. Empires start to fall. Kingdom starts to crumble, deaf to the warning call. Where is a word of kindness, forgiving, true & humble? A random act of kindness; The selfish gene proceeds. "I wish it could've been different undo the bloody deed". A seldom sign of reason, Could lift this veil of doom. Poor Luxembourg is waiting, as the sun is reaching noon. A random act of kindness, or a fleeting glimpse of light. The ultimatum's passing no-one wants to fight. A random act of kindness, a sudden lapse in blindness. A continent of suicide no trench is left where you can hide.

Belvedere 04:44
Belvedere. Belvedere from the top of the mountain, to the fancy fair. We fell in love, forbidden by the court above. Belvedere, Belvedere, is it time? Where are you now, Where have you gone, Did the revolution catch you on that throne? Future King, now history Can you make peace with your enemy? Belvedere, pray to God. Life cut short with a rebel shot: Sarajevo, city of blood I will plant for you a Forget-me-not. Give or take the steady state of this universe common ground, that we ahve found will keep us here safe and sound. Belvedere, Belvedere we had a love, the emperor could not approve Shut us out, put us down, surprise surprise we're going to wear that crown get ready now for the combat zone Belvedere, will not you leave you alone. Belvedere you know I'll always care.
