So Human - Salem Hill
We stare at our screens
All our lives
What a waste of eyes
'Till the electrical storm blows our fuses
And we gaze, dumbfounded, at the rain

Interial Lulu - Marillion
I told them I take photos for this magazine.
They let me in to see you comb your hair.
I watched for signs as I came through that door
The anxious eyes that I've been waiting for -
It's no use hoping I'm a dream.

'Marliese' by FISCHER-Z... but that's not prog. Don't get me wrong - I enjoyed this band back in the early 80s, they actually somewaht became quite popular in Spain, but...
Anyway, now: " And next time you send your boy down here
Give him a wife and a sexy daughter. "

Winding at light-speed through time
No time to rest yet
We've got to stop this game
Before madness has the final laugh"

Und hat hier alle Maenner abgecheckt
Im Scheinwerferlicht ihr junges Laecheln strahlt
Sie sieht gut aus und Schoenheit wird bezahlt"

You learned your lessons far too late

"Script For A Jester's Tear" - Marillion
Tell me what would we do
What would we say
They'll be killing us all in the wild
Taking our homes, killing wives and children
Leaving us nothing at all

Mister don't shoot her
You can't see the whites for the reds of her eyes
Maybe she's been crying over me
While you're lying over her

Slay them burn their children's laughter

The Gates of Delerium - Yes
"Still waiting for my saviour,
storms tear me limb from limb;
my fingers feel like seaweed...
I'm so far out I'm too far in.
I am a lonely man, my solitude is true
my eyes have borne stark witness
and now my nights are numbered, too."

Out Of This WOrld - Marillion
Harmless and innocent you devil in white
You stole my will without a fight
You filled me with confidence, but you blinded my eyes
You tricked me with visions of Paradise

'Snowblind' by STYX.
Now: " United with heroes, we were the rage, the fire.
But I was given a different destiny - knotted in closer despair. "

Sounds like Budapest (Jethro Tull).
This one's easy, I guess:
"Tell us what you've seen in faraway forgotten land
where empires have turned back to sand"

Lovely To See You - The Moody Blues
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If you’ve been bad, lord I bet you have
And you’ve been hit by flying lead
You’d better close your eyes and bow your head
And wait for the ricochet
