"Rescue"
Scene: Assault on Klodno Petrochemical plant.







*Do not be angry Lord
or remember iniquity forever
Behold the Holy City is a desert
Sion is made a desert
Jerusalem is desolate
The house of Your holiness and glory
Beyond The Invisible 
I look into the mirror
See myself, I'm over me
I need space for my desires
Have to dive into my fantasies
I know as soon as I'll arrive
Everything is possible
'Cause no one has to hide
Beyond the invisible

Raitata raitata, radu ridu raitata
(repeat 3x)

Close your eyes
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality

Ne irascaris Domine,
ne ultra memineris iniquitatis:
ecce civitas Sancti facta est deserta
Sion deserta facta est
Jerusalem desolata est
domus sanctificationis tuae et gloriae tuae*

Raitata raitata, radu ridi raitata
(repeat 3x)

Close your eyes
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality
(repeat)

Episode:
"Deja Vu All Over Again"
Scene: Nikita returns to Section One
Big Exit 
Look out ahead
See danger come
I want a pistol
I want a gun
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
Baby Baby
Ain't it true?
I'm immortal
When I'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
And I want to go to
A different land
I met a man
He told me straight
"You gotta leave
It's getting late
Too many cops
Too many guns
All trying to do something
No one else has done"
Baby Baby
Ain't it true?
I'm immortal when I'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
And I want to go to
A different land
Sometimes it rains so hard
And I feel the hurt
In my heart
Feels like the end of the world
I see the children
Sharp as knives
I see the children
Dead and alive
Beautiful people
Beautiful girls
I just feel like it's the end of the world
I walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But I can't find
A safe place to stand
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
Baby Baby
Ain't it true?
I'm immortal
When I'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
I want to go to
A different land

Episode:
"Nikita"
Scene: Nikita in training
Big Mistake 
She don't see his roving eye
It never roves when it's on her
Her friends all look the other way
And get together to confer
Someday he might spin around
To find his only one

I tightened all the knots 'till they were strong
And gave away the heart where I belong
I tightened all the knots now they're too strong
I wish they would break

She don't notice that he greets
Some objects like they have no end
He's walking tall and acting smart
To all of his uneasy friends
He might put that aura down
When it's no longer fun

Lonely's such a big mistake
If it's the only one you ever make
Lonely's just a big mistake

Rose Chronicles
Happily Ever After (1996)

Episode:
"Nikita"
Scene: Nikita burns picture of her gravesite
Blood Red 
Take a knife and stab
what already feels dead
and then make some wine from tears
that will fill the cup blood red
blood red

Fatal overdose again, again
every laboured breath is now
crowded out by pain
and the downpour on the windshield
hits like bullets, not like rain

Sucking all of what is left
the vampire barely gets fed
it's blood red
blood red

Les Bourgeois 
Le coeur bien au chaud
Les yeux dans la bière
Chez la grosse Adrienne de Montalant
Avec l'ami Jojo
Et avec l'ami Pierre
On allait boire nos vingt ans
Jojo se prenait pour Voltaire
Et Pierre pour Casanova
Et moi, moi qui étais le plus fier
Moi, moi je me prenais pour moi
Et quand vers minuit passaient les notaires
Qui sortaient de l'hôtel des "Trois Faisans"
On leur montrait notre cul et nos bonnes manières
En leur chantant

Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient bête
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient c...

Le coeur bien au chaud
Les yeux dans la bière
Chez la grosse Adrienne de Montalant
Avec l'ami Jojo
Et avec l'ami Pierre
On allait boire nos vingt ans
Voltaire dansait comme un vicaire
Et Casanova n'osait pas
Et moi, moi qui restait le plus fier
Moi j'étais presque aussi saoul que moi
Et quand vers minuit passaient les notaires
Qui sortaient de l'hôtel des "Trois Faisans"
On leur montrait notre cul et nos bonnes manières
En leur chantant

Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient bête
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient c...

Le coeur au repos
Les yeux bien sur terre
Au bar de l'hôtel des "Trois Faisans"
Avec maître Jojo
Et avec maître Pierre
Entre notaires on passe le temps
Jojo parle de Voltaire
Et Pierre de Casanova
Et moi, moi qui suis resté le plus fier
Moi, moi je parle encore de moi
Et c'est en sortant vers minuit Monsieur le Commissaire
Que tous les soirs de chez la Montalant
De jeunes "peigne-culs" nous montrent leur derrière
En nous chantant

Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient bête
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus ça devient vieux plus ça devient c...

Burn (1995)


Episode:
"Approaching Zero"
Scene: Nikita, Michael and Jurgen board the tanker.
Burn 
I look at you and then I see your fire
And I think about desire
Yes I think about desire
Tell me things that you try to hide
Now I'm burnin' up inside
Oh, now I'm burnin' up inside
When I think about the first time
That I saw your face
I've never felt this way
No I never felt this way
Now I'm thinkin' that you feel the same
And I feel this anyway
And I get down on my knees and pray

You're like a burning flame
And I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same
You're like a burning flame
And I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same

What kind of fool am I?
To want your body next to mine
I want your body next to mine
I'll need you anytime
And I'm breakin' down inside
Oh no, I'm breakin' down inside
You come to me with all your little fantasies
I've never had before
No I never had before
And now I'm livin' in my own reality
'cause all the things you did to me
All the things you did to me

(Chorus 3x)
