Where would you be without music You wouldn't be nowhere it all You wouldn't be here to invest,oh If you weren't in heaven no more One for the road Staring our load Show us the way Can you imagine the silence Well,thank fully we've got the boys The melody lies fascinated The rhythm is something divine Send out a trend of impatience To see you all movin' so fine Got to find it soon One for the road Staring our load Show us the way
Man eatin' momma, steam driven hammer Sorts the men out from the boys Takes no messin', all in wrestlin' Is one of her pride and joys She a classy, flashy lassy Imitation sapphire shine Two faced liar, full of fire But I know the flame is mine Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man You can take her if you want her If you think you can Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man You can take her if you want her you can She's a grip and choke ya Heavy smoker Wrong side of the law Midnight shady Good time lady Heavy, ready show you what for Barroom fighter Ten pint a nighter Definite ninety-nine Diamond cluster Knuckle duster Feline on the borderline Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man You can take her if you want her If you think you can Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man You can take her if you want her you can
Got no silver for my pocket got no pillow for my head and the winter it gets stronger got to ease my aching head In the morning when I wake up Got this feeling deep inside And I wonder if I'm dying Or I'll got out of my mind I still get this awful feeling When the snow falls to the ground It still sends my sense reeling Knowing winter's come to town
I still get this, awful feeling When the snow falls, to the ground It still sends my, senses reeling Telling winter, come to town
Now winter wind fades from my face My heart will no longer race Sun smiling down from the sky Melts away ice from my eye Warmth eases back to my soul Bitterness shrugs then it goes
I got home late this evening, stumbled up the stair I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked in the bedroom there My woman with a man was lyin' fast asleep I felt a rage inside me, control I couldn't keep She was a cheater I reached the dressing table, kicked away the door I gripped the cold black metal, a loaded .44 By this time they're awake and they don't know what to do I scream you cheatin' bitch here's what I think of you You are a cheater They both pleaded for mercy, I said no way When you do this upon me, you have no say I treated you so real good, and this is what you do Oh no I've finished with you, your time is through You are a cheater If you need a cheater there's nobody sweeter than this one There's no neater, come on here and meet her Cheater, cheater, cheater, come on and meet her...
Where do we go from here There must be something near Changing you, changing me forever Places change, faces change Life is so very strange Changing time, changing rhyme together There's nowhere else to go... This could be or last show Changing dreams changing schemes... NEVER We're never satisfied Love is gone along with fun Now we're reaching for the gun Changing cast, changing fast No more tether We are never satisfied
What have you achieved now you're old Did you fulfill ambition, do as you were told Or are you still doing the same this year Should I give sorrow, or turn 'round and sneer I know that the prospects weren't all that good But they improved, and I'd have thought that you could Have strived for that something we all have deep inside Not let it vanish, along with your pride Now with the aid of your new walking stick You hobble along through society thick And look mesmerized by the face of it all You keep to the gutter in case you fall I can't go on I can't go on I can't go on I can't go on I, I, I, I...
Came in this morning high on a bird's wing Wide open minded,but still quite aware Followed the sunrise right through from dawning Picking out landmarks that said i was there Lead to positions by stern faced leaders Who never let one smile depart from their face Then with an arm raised the slaughter is started One or two crack up and start to cry A selfishness breeds in this cesspool of sorrow And every few moments I see a friend die Synchronized watches flash in the sunlight As into the battle we are all led Killer, killer, you keep your thoughts at bay Maiming, destroying every single day, Is this the way that you get your fun slaying, waylaying in the heat of the midday sun, Get out, get out, go and do your job Rape and pillage, squander all and rob. You make me sick getting paid for murder, But you wouldn't lay a finger on your mother, oh, no You'll never ever dream to hurt her. Hero, hero, you have done so well So sit back and lick your wounds 'cause you won't go to hell. Take your medal, wear it now with pride. Consolation for the pain and sin you feel inside.
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain Don't you know you're driving me insane You're tryin' to find your way through life You're tryin' to get some new direction Another woman got her man She won't find no new connection Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through Takes another look around, you're not goin' anywhere You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care You're tryin' to find your way again You're tryin' to find some new... Another woman's got her man But she won't find a new... Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through You 'bin foolin' with some hot guy I want to know why is it why Get up get out you know you really blew it I've had enough, I've had enough, good God pluck me Once she was wonderful Once she was fine Once she was beautiful Once she was mine...she was mine Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore Now change has come over her body, she doesn't see me anymore Changes, changes, changes, changes Victim of changes
You're in for surprise You're in for a shock In London town streets When there's darkness and fog When you least expect me And you turn your back I'll attack I smile when I'm sneaking Through shadows by the wall I laugh when I'm creeping But you won't hear me at all All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper You'll soon shake with fear Never knowing if I'm near I'm sly and I'm shameless Nocturnal and nameless Except for "The Ripper" Or if you like "Jack The Knife" [SOLO (Glenn)] Any back alley street Is where we'll probably meet Underneath a gas lamp Where the air's cold and damp I'm a nasty surprise I'm a devil in disguise I'm a footstep at night I'm a scream of the fright All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper
Standing by my window, breathing summer breeze Saw a figure floating, 'neath the willow tree Asked us if we were happy, we said we didn't know Took us by the hands and up we go We followed the dreamer through the purple hazy clouds He could control our sense of time We thought we were lost but no matter how we tried Everyone was in peace of mind We felt the sensations drift inside our frames Finding complete contentment there And all the tensions that hurt us in the past Just seemed to vanish in thin air He said in the cosmos is a single sonic sound That is vibrating constantly And if we could grip and hold on to the note We would see our minds were free...oh they're free We are lost above Floating way up high If you think you can find a way You can surely try
Solar winds are blowing Neutron star controlling All is lost, doomed and tossed, at what cost forever Meteors fly around me Comets die, and then they And then they, you wanna see how they try to surround me I can say, here today, we shall stay forever If you want to find us in a hurry Oh let me tell you don't you worry I can't say, here today, we shall stay forever
Behold 'tis I the commander Whose grip controls you all Resist me not, surrender I'll no compassion call (Tyrant) Capture of humanity (Tyrant) Conqueror of all (Tyrant) Hideous destructor (Tyrant) Every man shall fall Your very lives are held within my fingers I snap them and you cower down in fear You spineless things who belly down to slither To the end of the world you follow to be near (Tyrant) Capture of humanity (Tyrant) Conqueror of all (Tyrant) Hideous destructor (Tyrant) Every man shall fall Mourn for us oppressed in fear Chained and shackled we are bound Freedom choked in dread we live Since Tyrant was enthroned I listen not to sympathy Whilst ruler of this land Withdraw your feeble aches and moans Or suffer smite from this my hand (Tyrant) Capture of humanity (Tyrant) Conqueror of all (Tyrant) Hideous destructor (Tyrant) Every man shall fall Mourn for us oppressed in fear Chained and shackled we are bound Freedom choked in dread we live Since Tyrant was enthroned My legions faithful unto death I'll summon to my court And as you perish each of you Shall scream as you are sought (Tyrant) Capture of humanity (Tyrant) Conqueror of all (Tyrant) Hideous destructor (Tyrant) Every man shall fall
Mercenary batalions Are poised to strike us down Terminations conquest Upon us now full grown Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Devastation hungers She waits to leap to earth Imminent liquidation Before the grand rebirth Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Sin after sin I have endured Yet the wounds I bear are the wounds of love Frantic mindless zombies Grab at fleeting time Lost in cold perplexion Waiting for the sign Generations tremble Clinging face to face Helpless situation To end the perfect race Flashing senseless sabers Cut us to the ground Eager for the life blood Of all who can be found Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Slice to the left, slice to the right None to retaliate, none will fight Chopping at the hearts, snuffing out the lives This race departs, no one will survive Heads to the feet, feet to the air Souls in the soil, heavy in despair End of all ends, body into dust To greet death friends, extinction is a must
The old man's sitting there, his head bowed down Every now and then he'll take a look around And his eyes reflect the memory-pain of years gone by He can't regain nostalgic dreams he'll never see again With trembling hands, he wipes a tear Many fall like rain, there's one for every year And his life laid out so clearly now, life that's brought death So nearly now life once he clung to dearly lets go But spare a thought as you pass him by Take a closer look and you'll say He's our tomorrow, just as much as we are his yesterday A lonely grave, and soon forgot Only wind and leaves lament his mournful song Yet they shout his epitaph out clear For anyone who's passing near It names the person lying here as you And you...and you...and you...
Beware of their coming Take heed our time is near Fatality relinguish not Brutality in arms doth seek to destroy. They smashed through the clouds into the light of the moon Their steeds were full charging, called destruction and doom 'Twas as if all hell had broke loose on this night And all in all it was a terrible sight Now we are taken unto the island of domination We gotta get, we gotta get, we gotta get out of this place There's a man with a needle who's pleading to get at my face Hide me and hold me control free as best as you can It's all becoming too much, I can't cope, for one man Now we are taken unto the island of domination Skyrider supersonic flyer Nightdriver demon of desire Spinesnapper tried your best to break us Throatchoker thought that you could take us The fright of your life, the fright of your life The fright of your life is here guaranteed This is no illusion confessing confusion you're freed Lashings of strappings with beatings competing to win Oh what a mess I am blessed, dominations set in Now we are taken unto the island of domination...
Sinner rider, rides in with the storm The devil rides beside him The devil is his god, God help you mourn Do you, do you hear it, do you hear the thunder Deafen every living thing about Can you, can you see it, can you See the mountains darken yonder Black sun rising, time is running out Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! His steed of fury, Eyes of fire and mane ablaze Demonic vultures stalking Drawn by the smell of war and pain He roams the starways Searching for the carcasses of war But if it's hungry then its very presence Disrupts the calm into the storm Curse and damn you all you'll fall by the hand of the Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! God of the Devils, God of the Devils Won't you help them pray God of the Devils, God of the Devils Is there no other way Can't you hear their souls calling out in their plight Can't you see their blood is boiling setting them alight Thirty years now sleeping, so sound War raises its head, and looks slowly around The Sinner is near, sensing the fear And the beast will start movin' around Can't you see their souls calling out in their brain Can't you hear their blood is boiling setting them alight ...Sinner, Sinner, Sinner, Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sinner! Sacrifice to vice or die by the hand of the Curse and damn you all you fall by the hand of the Sinner!
I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you decided to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing the voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Headed straight for a fall But we both know what memories can bring They bring Diamonds and Rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring Diamonds and Rust Now I see you standing with brown leaves all around and snow in your hair Now we're smiling out the window of the crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me we both could've died then and there Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You were so good with words And at keeping things vague Cause I need some of that vagueness now It's all come back too clearly, yes, I love you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid But we both know what memories can bring They bring Diamonds and Rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring Diamonds and Rust Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust

Throughout the soft and timeless days of August 'Til now the shadows begin to grow much longer The sunset's fire has deepened blood red I give you this, the last rose of summer A token of my unyielding love So when the winter's mantle stills the earth And all around the scene is dead and cold This rose reminds you of a time when all was warm and living Do not despair, mother nature simply rests In sleep she has well earned 'Til one day not so very far from now With the opening of the first rose buds I shall return A token of my unyielding love So that when winter's mettle steals the earth And all around the scene is dead and cold This rose reminds you of a time when all was warm and living The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer In your long shadows The last rose of summer In the sunset The last rose of summer Take this rose that I give you The last rose of summer The last rose of summer Don't worry about the winter The last rose of summer I shall return The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer The last rose of summer
Well, the pressure's too much, you know I peaked last night I gotta get some a quick release City is standing on my shoulders My body's going piece by piece Yeah! Yes I know what I want and I know where to get it And I'm going there right away This is one priest that I don't have to fall on Down to my knees and pray No! When your back's to the wall come along one and all We shall fight all the slander that's penned It's us we shall choose let the bigoted lose For our triumph's the means to their end With you by my side I shall ride every storm Let the cynics drop dead in their critical head They're wrist merchants as we all can see Bunch of deaf ears with their columnized fears What a shame, what a shame, oh dear me! When your back's to the wall, come along one and all We shall fight all the slander that's penned It's us we shall choose let the bigoted lose For our triumph's the means to their end Yes I know what I want and I know where to get it And I'm going there right away This is one priest that I don't have to fall on Down to my knees and pray
I made a spike about nine o'clock on a Saturday All eyes hit me as I walked into the door Then steel and leather guys were fooling in the denim dudes A couple cards played rough stuff, New York, fire island I cased the joint, straining at the scenes I moseyed up to the counter and the tender came a-grinnin' I snapped the smile off his face and scowled "Give me a bourbon" The mirror on the wall was collecting and reflecting All the heavy bodies ducking, stealing eager for some action The scene screwed me up, I saw some contact Then the big boys, saw me and knew that I'd had too much, floating around Statues alive, seconds are hours Sacks like a hurricane, wrapped in and shattered I was barely holding on to this flying body symphony I guess I dream in pictures, not colors The true free expression I demand is human rights - right I gave my life, I am immortal I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss I'm going, no loss Nightmare, just a bunch of goddamn, rotten, steaming, raw Deal
Once I dreamed that love would come and sweep me up away Now it seems life's passed me by, I'm still alone today Here come the tears Looks like it'll always be the same No one here to comfort me Here come the tears All alone, no one cares. So much to give to you all out there. Take me now, in your arms. Let me rest, safe from harm. Ohhh.... I want to be loved... I need to be loved... Won't somebody love me.... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here they come, here come the tears... Here come the tears... Here come the tears... Here come the tears... Here come the tears... Here come the tears, ohhh Here come the tears, ohhh Here come the tears
Grand canyons of space and time universal My mind is subjected to all Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin Through cracked, blackened memories of unit dispersal I face the impregnable wall Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! Hooks to my brain are well in Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! I know what I am, I'm Berlin Exploding, reloading, this quest never ending Until I give out my last breath I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling Hooks to my brain are well in I'm stabbing and bawling, I'm punching and crawling I know what I am, I'm Berlin
You'd better run You'd better run You'd better run from the Devil's gun The race is on The race is on Now you'd better run from the Devil's gun Strange things happen If you stay The Devil will catch you anyway He'll seek you here He'll seek you there The Devil will seek you everywhere And when he finds you You'll soon find out The Devil's fire just won't go out He burns you up From head to toe The Devil's grip just won't let go
Racing' cross the heavens Straight into the dawn Looking like a comet Slicing through the morn Scorching the horizon Blazing to the land Now he's here amongst us The age of fire's at hand Stand by for Exciter Salvation is his task Stand by for Exciter Salvation bids to ask Everything he touches Fries into a crisp, Let him get close to you So you're in his trip, First you'll smoke and smoulder Blister up and singe When ignition hits you the very soul of your being will cringe. Stand by for Exciter Salvation is his task Stand by for Exciter Here he comes now Fall to your knees and repent if you please Who is this man? Where is he from? Exciter comes For everyone. You'll never see him But you will taste the fire upon your tongue He's come to make you snap out Of the state that you are in Looks around and make you See the light again So much self-indulgence Results in shattered eyes Predominant complacency Leads to beguiling lies. Stand by for Exciter Salvation is his task Stand by for Exciter Salvation bids to ask When he leaps amidst us With combustive dance All shall bear the branding Of his thermal lance, Cauterizing masses Melting into one Only when there's order Will his job be done. Stand by for Exciter Salvation is his task Stand by for Exciter Here he comes now Fall to your knees and repent if you please Who is this man? Where is he from? Exciter comes For everyone You'll never see him But you will taste the fire upon your tongue Racing past the heavens Straight into the dawn Looking like a comet Slicing through the morn Scorching the horizon Blazing to the land Now he's here amongst us The age of fire's at hand Stand by for Exciter Stand by for Exciter Stand by for Exciter Stand by for Exciter
The father's son, thy kingdom come, electric ecstasy, Deliver us from all the fuss and give us sanctuary. Lead us all into arena, magnificent in death. Well let us serenade the sinner, we'll follow in his step. White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot. The fury songs, venomous wrongs so rich in tragedy, An overture forever more to senseless victories. Give to us this day of glory the power and the kill So we avoid the wrath and all the almighty fire of White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot. The heat's hot burns a lot. Who are not cut out to fight this day will surely fall. The few who stand to take command forever and ever are men. Prepare to fight, unsheathe your scythe a ghastly beam of ill To slice the life with blinding light and seventh dimensional skill. The centuries of dedication inherited till at last From years of solar gladiation can only end in White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot. The heat's hot burns a lot. Who are not cut out to fight this day will surely fall. The few who stand to take command forever and ever are men. White heat Red hot White heat Red hot

Wild-eyed and tight fisted, I'm fused to the bone I stand contemplating, reacting alone Impaled with betrayal The tourniquet turns Society's creation Pole-axed out and burnt Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Transfixed at deliverance, is this all there is Faithless continuum, into the abyss Fierce is my conviction, absolute my belief I spit at you apathy, and seducer deceit Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Lethal, deadly, hung, drawn and quartered He slaughtered and faltered and altered the world But by doing so smashed all his hopes and utopian dreams Whipping, stripping, peeling the flesh off, relentless and senseless His lust snapped like vipers whose fangs sank in deep To infest and decay from the core Impaled with betrayal, the tourniquet turns Society's creation, pole-axed out and burnt Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Stained class king
I came across a smoking field, pulsating afterglow I saw a seering flash of light erupt and skyward go I staggered back in dazed surprise What was it I had seen? And as I stood there mesmerized I heard my spirit scream Invader invader nearby Invader, invader is nigh This is the first of more to come in carefully planned attacks If it is so we must prepare defenses to fight back The call is out throughout the world United we must stand To build a line, strategic force, they will not take a man Invader invader nearby Invader, invader is nigh When they come to take control every man must play his role They won't take our world away when the children we leave Will have to believe in today We warn you now you things out there Whatever you may send We won't give in without a fight, a fight until the end With vigilance by day and night our scanners trace the sky A shield is sealed upon this earth, a shield you won't get by Invader invader nearby Invader, invader is nigh

I've left the world behind I'm safe here in my mind Free to speak with my own kind This is my life, this is my life I'll decide not you Withdrawn he'd sit there Stare blank into space No sign of life Would flicker on his face Until one day he smiled It seemed as though with pride The wind kissed him Goodbye - and then he died Yeah!

I heard a human voice who sang like no one else I heard a proud lady singing loud Lived her life as she liked, didn't give a damn But soon she found she was underground and wasted I watched her hitting notes as she strutted stage Her body shook oh, she did her stuff She screamed and quake, give and take, maybe took too much If you take the smooth you gotta take the rough Why do you have to die to be a hero It's a shame a legend begins at its end Why do you have to die if you're a hero When there's still so many things to say unsaid I heard a man's guitar electrify a crowd I felt the sound shower 'round And he would take you with him where no music's been before As you merged the power surge together His music knew no limits if you were in it's wake You had no choice, no, but hear its voice And you would listen hypnotized, and in a dream But once so strong survive or become weak Why do you have to die to be a hero It's a shame a legend begins at its end Why do you have to die if you're a hero When there's still so many things to say unsaid If you gaze across timeless years you'll find them always there And many gods will join the list compiled with dying care Hungry mouths are waiting to bite the hand that feeds And so the living dead carry on immortal deeds I saw on silver screen an actor's rise to fame But fast car user lose That legend's born from death and that is such a shame 'cos ev'ry year new ones appear Why do you have to die to be a hero It's a shame a legend begins at its end Why do you have to die if you're a hero When there's still so many things to say unsaid.

Pounding the world like a battering ram Forging the furnace for the final grand slam Chopping away at the source soon the course will be done Leaving a trail of destruction that's second to none Hammering anvils straining muscle and might Shattering blows crashing browbeating fright Fast devastating and desolisating the curse Blasting the cannons of truth through each man of this earth Wielding the axe comes the one culmination That's always seemed certain to bring down the curtain on greed Sifting the good from the bad it's the age for the rage Of the dogs which must fall to the just and be free Now grate for the vandals who trampled and sampled Till this place conditioned brought forth demolition to war The slipping and sliding corrosive subsiding That withered and wained till the world seemed all drained fills the bay Pounding the world like a battering ram Forging the furnace for the final grand slam Chopping away at the source soon the course will be done Leaving a trail of destruction that's second to none Second to none
We've taken too much for granted And all the time it had grown From techno seeds we first planted Evolved a mind of its own Marching in the streets Dragging iron feet Laser beaming hearts Ripping men apart From off I've seen my perfection Where we could do as we please In secrecy this infection Was spreading like a disease Hiding underground Knowing we'd be found Fearing for our lives Reaped by robot's scythes Metal Gods Metal Gods [Solo Glenn] Metal Gods Metal Gods Machines are taking all over With mankind in their command In time they'd like to discover How they can make their demand Better be the slaves To their wicked ways But meeting with our death Engulfed in molten breath

From a fireball we came crossed sea and mountain We were drinking beauty with our eyes We were given all to make our own Let us be left alone Laid the tasks and paid the price Everything survives Crushed and bolted all the grain At every wind what a stake we're in Is pain better than the grave When we talk without amend We see red and then Deep inside our blood begins to boil Like a tiger in the cage We begin to shake with rage

Full moon is rising The sky is black I heed your call I'm coming back The road is straight cast Wind's in my eyes The engine roars between my thighs From desert plains I bring you love From desert plains I bring you love Wild mountain thunder Echoes my quest My body aches but I'll not rest Quartz light to guide me Till sunrise leads My passion screams, my heart it bleeds From desert plains I bring you love From desert plains I bring you love Then in the distance I see you stand On the horizon you raise your hand In burning rubber I end my quest You fall into my arms at last From desert plains I bring you love From desert plains I bring you love
Golden halos radiating higher Diamond visions softly breathing fire Sky processions we are watching you arrive Silver crystals arching beams below What light spirals lifting up to go Glass formations solar angels spread their wings Spectral gliders drifting in the air Wheels of wonder floating everywhere Draped in rainbows gently we ascend
Say you want to rip it up Paint the town red Wanna do the hot spots Get it in the head You drive me crazy I know your game You done it all before You'll do it all again You say yes, I say no My blood's on fire I grit my teeth You're nothin' but a teaser Gimme some relief I'm lookin' at the bottle Sinkin' to the floor I gotta white knuckles Can't take it anymore You say yes, I say no What do you treat me so What I do, I do for you

Red light, green light I'm coming home tonight Burning the freeway Out of control Red light, dead lines We streak from town to town I's too much, I need your touch I've been away too long Out again upon the thunder road Driving back to you where I belong I've had enough Dreams can wait I'm coming home Spotlights, wild nights I know it wrong from right Places, the faces All look the same Hot wired, so tired Living from song to song The madness, the badness It's just a game Watch the sunrise From coast to coast That's when I need your loving Oh! That's when I need it most Can't explain, it's something in the blood Wouldn't change it even if I could
Up here in space I'm looking down on you. My lasers trace Everything you do. You think you've private lives Think nothing of the kind. There is no true escape I'm watching all the time. I'm made of metal My circuits gleam. I am perpetual I keep the country clean. I'm elected electric spy I protected electric eye. Always in focus You can't feel my stare. I zoom into you You don't know I'm there. I take a pride in probing all your secret moves My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove. Electric eye, in the sky Feel my stare, always there 's nothing you can do about it. Develop and expose I feed upon your every thought And so my power grows. Protected. Detective. Electric eye.
Shooting for the stars Cruise the speed of light. Glowin' god of Mars Body burning bright. Well I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind Yes I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind. Tearing up through life Million miles an hour Blinding all in sight Surging rush of power. Thunderbolt from hell Shattering aloud. Screamin' demons yell Bursting through the clouds.
I've been trying There's no denying. It's sending me Out of my mind. I've seen reason Change to treason. It's losing its sense Of all kind. How much longer will it take For the world to see. We should learn to live And simply let it be. Bloodstone, bloodstone. In the night time Wake in fright. I'm so scared of the game That's being played. Start to wonder What's going under And how many deals Have been made Bloodstone. I can't take it. You got me living On a bloodstone I don't want that bloodstone.
I move away it don't do me no good Three thousand miles don't help like I thought it would. Help me, I'm beggin' you please. You've got the power down on my knees Give me some kind of life. Leave me be. Take these chains off Take 'em off of my heart Reach out to me, as if from the grave I tried to run but I'm tied to you like a slave. It's my fault for loving you so You were so precious, how could I know. You turned mean overnight Poor poor me. I don't owe you anything Why don't you get out of my life. Through it all the memories cling And I can't sleep at night.
I wanna tell ya, hey I think you oughta know The way you're treating me, I feel I'll have to go. I've heard the rumours and it seems they're comin' true You do what suits ya, but then that's nothing new Do what you wanna do Oh what you put me through. How I suffer for your love. Say what you wanna say You know that you're gonna pay For all the times that I've cried. You give me pain, but you bring me pleasure Get out of my life. You bring me pain, but you give me pleasure Don't know what I like. You've got me tied up, dog upon a leash Instead of messin' 'round, practice what you preach. Your days are numbered, my day's arrived The way I see it, we're dead or we're alive You give me pain, but you bring me pleasure Get out of my life You bring me pain, but you bring me pleasure Don't know what I like Do what you wanna do Oh what you put me through How I suffer what a lover can try on me Say what you wanna say You know that you're gonna pay For all the times that I've cried You give me pain, but you bring me pleasure Get out of my life You give me pain, but you give me pleasure Don't know what I like You bring me pain, but you bring me pleasure Get out of my life You bring me pain, but you bring me pleasure Don't know what I like
Hey listen don't you let them get your mind Fill your brain with orders and that's not right. They're playing at a game that draws you closer Till you're living in a world that's ruled by fear. Always takin' baby out that's o.k. What they're givin' maybe it's out of phase with me. Told you one you're never gonna win the race Same old no tomorrow kicked in the face. We are screaming, screaming for vengeance The world is a manacled place. Screaming, screaming for vengeance The world is defiled in disgrace. Tie a blindfold all around your head Spin you 'round in the torture before the dread. And then you're pushed and shoved into every corner Then they lead you out into the final slaughter. As the sweat is runnin' down your neck All your praying for's to stop your body breakin' up. Oh your heart is pumpin' gonna soon explode Got to fight the horror of this mental load. So you wait it out and bide your time Rip off that straight jacket gotta break that line. Everyone who wins in the great escape Leaves a thousand more who suffer in their wake. I don't talk about it but that's alright Table's turned now there's a revenge in sight. If it takes forever babe I tell ya I can wait Send them screaming back through their hell's own gate.
One life I'm gonna live it up I'm takin' flight I said I'll never get enough Stand tall I'm young and kinda proud I'm on top as long as the music's loud. If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by You're thinkin' like a fool 'cause it's a case of do or die. Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had If you think I'll let it go you're mad You've got another thing comin'. That's right here's where the talkin' ends Well listen this night there'll be some action spent. Drive hard I'm callin' all the shots I got an ace card comin' down on the rocks. If you think I'll sit around while you chip away my brain Listen I ain't foolin' and you'd better think again. Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had If you think I'll let it go you're mad You've got another thing comin'. In this world we're livin' in we have our share of sorrow Answer now is don't give in aim for a new tomorrow. Oh so hot no time to take a rest yeah At top, ain’t room for second best Real strong got me some security Hey I'm a big smash I'm goin' for infinity yeah If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by You're thinkin' like a fool cause it's a case of do or die Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had You think I'll let it go you're mad You've got another thing coming
I'd spend my days alone I used to stay at home Lost in seclusion there. Like I was in a cell A captured heart as well Surrounded by despair. Darkness filled my soul Losing all control. Down on the streets below Bright city lights would glow. The energy would rise And through the heat I'd gaze Still counting empty days. With fire in my eyes Living through this hell Can I break the spell. Fever. You set my soul on fire. Fever. You fill me with desire. Fever. You always get it right. Fever. All day and all night. Then one night as I walked I heard your body talk I saw a shooting star In some magnetic trance Our beating hearts would dance And crash down from afar. Oh how strange fate is Never dreamed of this. So destiny has brought us Oh so close together We were like angels in the night Living the dream At last I'll be with you forever. And all at once it feels so right.
Hypnotize me Mesmerize me Feel my willpower slip. Light my fire With cold desire Losing all my grip. Eat my diamonds Drinkin' all my gin Feast your eyes on A whole lotta sin. On no you're so damned wicked You got me by the throat Oh no got your claws stuck in my You never let me go I believe you're the devil I believe you're the devil's child. Took my dreams And now it seems you're nothing but a liar Smash and grab at all I had Build my funeral pyre. Stop pretendin' Got me growin' old Your tormentin's Fit to snap my soul. You took my heart And left it blown to smithereens. I gave my body as a slave You cut my flesh And drank my blood that poured in streams I'm left here broken and ashamed. Goin' under Hear the thunder Death defying grace. Your condition breeds ammunition Shoots me in the face. Vivious talkin' Stabs me like a knife Scratched and bruised, so abused I'm a human sacrifice.
When I saw your face I became a prisoner of your eyes And I would do just anything To stay and be with you. You know there are times When I let myself wonder As I was going under You Pulled me back to earth Don't you hear me crying Take me in your arms again Tell me that you're trying Or is our love a lie Love is blind And love deceives you You came along and captured me Now I'm a prisoner of your eyes Trapped in time I cannot leave you I'm just a prisoner of your eyes As each day goes by I've given up completely I've locked myself inside your heart And thrown away the key Only time will tell If I can live without you Can you live without you Can you see into the future Will you ever set me free Don't you hear me crying Take me into your arms again Tell me that you're trying Or is our love a lie Love is blind And love deceives you You came along and captured me Now I'm a prisoner of your eyes Trapped in time I cannot leave you I'm just a prisoner of your eyes In this heartache We can try and start again Stop the heartbreak A little time will help to kill the pain.
Fast and furious we ride the universe To carve a road for us that slices every curve in sight We accelerate,no time to hesitate This load will detonate whoever would contend its right Born to lead at breakneck speed with high octane We're spitting flames freewheel burning On we catapult, we're thrusting to the hilt Unearthing every fault, go headlong into any dare We don't accept defeat, we never will retreat We blaze with scorching heat obliterations everywhere Look before you leap has never been the way we keep Our road is free Charging to the top And never give in never stops the way to be Hold on to the lead with all your will and concede You'll find there's life with victory on high
Deadly as the viper peering from its coil The poison there is coming to the boil Ticking like to time bomb The fuse is running short On the verge of snapping if it's caught And all the pressure that's been building up For all the years it bore the load The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort Ready to explode Jawbreaker Crouching in the coner Wound up as a spring Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering Muscles all contorted Claws dug in the dirt Every ounce of fibre on alert
Get a grip on the action, moving heaven and earth Gotta get a reaction, push for all that you're worth No denying we're going against the grain So defiant they'll never put us down Rock Hard Ride Free all day, all night Rock Hard Ride Free all your life Tough as steel stop at nothing Look at fate in the face Don't take no for an answer Grab the lead in the race Rock hard with a purpose Got a mind that won't bend Die hard resolution That is true to the end
Along deserted avenues Steam begins to rise The figures primed and ready Prepared for quick surprise He's watching for a sign His life is on the line Dogs whine in the alleys Smoke is on the wind From deep inside its empty shell A cathedral bell begins Ringing out its toll A storm begins to grow Amidst the upturned burned-out cars The challengers await And in their fists clutch iron bars With which to seal his fate Across his chest in scabbards rest The rows of throwing knives Whose razor points in challenged tests Have finished many lives Now facing as another The stand-off eats at time Then all at once a silence falls As the bell ceases its chime Upon this sign the challengers With shrieks and cries rush forth The knives fly out like bullets Upon their deadly course Screams of pain and agony Rent the silent air Amidst the dying bodies Blood runs everywhere The figure stands expressionless Impassive and alone Unmoved by this victory And the seeds of death he's sown Sworn to avenge condemn to hell Tempt not the blade all fear the Sentinel
When you feel safe when you feel warm That's when I rise that's when I crawl Gliding on mist hardly a sound Bringing the kiss evils abound In the dead of the night love bites Into your room where in deep sleep There you lie still to you I creep Then I descend close to your lips Across you I bend you smile as I sip Now you are mine in my control One taste of your life And I own your soul Softly you stir gently you moan Lust's in the air wake as I groan In the dead of the night love bites Love bites you invites you To feast in the night Excites you delight you It drains you to white Live bites You knew at first sight You'd enjoy my attack That with my first bite There'd be no turning back So come in my arms I strike any hour I will return to trap and devour In the dead of the night love bites
Wrapped tight around me Like a second flesh of skin cling my body As the ecstasy begins Your wild vibrations Got me shooting from the hip Crazed and insatiable let rip Eat me alive Sounds like an animal panting to the beat Groan in the pleasure zone gasping from the heat Gut-wrenching frenzy that deranges every joint I'm gonna force you at gun point To eat me alive Bound to deliver as you give and I collect Squealing in passion as the rod steel injects Lunge to the maximum Spread-eagled to the wall You're well equipped to take it all So eat me alive
You can look to the left and look to the right But you will live in danger tonight When the enemy comes he will never be heard He'll blow your mind and not say a word Blinding lights-flashing colors Sleepless nights If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll [Repeat] The power-mad freaks who are Ruling the earth Will show little they think you're worth With animal lust they'll devour your life And slice your word to bits like a knife One last day burning hell fire You're blown away If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll [Repeat] Know what it's like When you're taken for granted there goes your life It's so underhanded If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll
In the last rays of the setting sun And the past days, that's where our memories run And all of those times still race though my mind I'm shattered inside to find When the night comes down And I'm here all alone When the night comes down And there's no place to go Call me and I'll wait till the summer You never understood Call me and I'll wait forever For a love that's only good As the light starts to dim The fear closes in and the nightmares begin Oh no you won't be there tomorrow Oh no say it isn't true Can't take this pain and sorrow Oh can't you see my heart is broken in two
I know you like it hot Love to writhe and sweat You think that this feels good You ain't felt nothing yet Red-hot licks in the palm of my hand Feel your body quake As we hit the promised land I'm heavy duty We'll rise inside ya till the power splits your head We're gonna rock ya till your metal hunger's fed Let's all join forces Rule with an iron hand And prove to all the world Metal rules the land We're heavy duty So come on let's tell the world
We are defenders of the faith
Why do I have to wait so long Before you come into my life again Seems as though forever until I can be here by your side till then I think you feel the same way too You know you make my dreams come true If you'll just turn on your light Let me see it shining through the night When I'm far away from here I'll hold all the memories so clear If I only have the choice I would stay so let me hear your voice I think you feel the same way too You know you make my dreams come true If you'll just turn on your light Let me see it shining through the night

Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans Way back up in the woods amongst the evergreens There stood an old cabin made of earth and wood Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode That never ever learned to read and write so well But he could play a guitar just like ringing a bell Go go. Go Johnny go Johnny B. Goode He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track Old engineer sitting in the shade Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made The people passing by would stop and say "Oh my but how that little country boy could play" Go go. Go Johnny go Johnny B. Goode His mother told him some day you will be a man And you will be the leader of a big old band Many people coming from miles around To hear you play your music till the sun goes down Maybe someday your name will be in lights, saying Johnny B. Goode tonight Go go. Go Johnny go Johnny B. Goode

You're looking at me why
Sort of like a leper vibe
Okay for your kind
But it's too good for me
And a hey I know I'm
Never gonna qualify
For all the bullshit
Of your social degrees
Oh look down your noses at me
Hating my identity
Oh but that don't mean a damn thing you see
'Cause down here in Hell everybody loves me
Hey I know I'm anti-social
'Cause you act like I'm infected
With some atrocity
And though I know I'm
Every bit the same inside
My face don't fit
It's like I've got some disease
Oh you keep your face turned away
To strip me of identity
Oh still got my fortune and fame
'Cause down here in Hell everyone knows my name
Hell is home to me
Might as well be
I like it here and nowhere else invited me
Hell is home to me
It has to be ('cause Jesus Christ)
Nobody else invited me
Now I belong
I found my home
'Cause even though I know things won't
Get any better, they can certainly never get much worse
Hell is home to me
Might as well be
I like it here and nowhere else invited me
Hell is home to me
It has to be ('cause Jesus Christ)
Nobody else invited me
Say my whole life I've always been disliked
Ignored unless you're spitting insults at me
And I don't know why you felt so justified
In all the degradation that you dished on me
Oh! Now my status has changed
And you've got yourself to blame
Oh! I'll grab all the attention I crave
Now I'm running Hell - Heaven won't be the same
Hell is home to me
Might as well be
I like it here and nowhere else invited me
Hell is home to me
It has to be ('cause Jesus Christ)
Nobody else invited me

So many years that we were one So many things we've done The memories alive But most of me has died As I struggle with events I'm offered words of strength They do not comprehend The passion we possessed People tell me what to do Tell me how I should get through But they haven't got a clue No one else comes close to you I see your eyes before they closed They looked right inside my soul And they asked me not to grieve I tried but still I bleed I wake up, I break up Try hard to shake off The desolation as it grows As nothing else comes close And as I stand here by the grave And the wind calls out your name I know that time could never heal The emptiness I feel People try to give me hope Tell me how I should let go But they'll never really know 'Cause there's nothing else comes close People tell me what to do Tell me how I should get through But they haven't got a clue No one else comes close to you

Worth fighting for

I will take your final breath And I will be your last regret Cold blood - runs in my blackened heart Tearing - every soul apart Messenger of death - wields the scythe Of man's damnation Messenger of death - hold his blade For termination Sin - is what I feast upon I'm forging my crematorium Your tomb - is waiting here for you Welcome to my ritual Messenger of death - wirlds the scythe Of man's damnation Messenger of death - holds his blade For termination Death rides out from the storm We turn to God and cry Ignored we turn to face This vengeance from the sky Death rides out from the storm No time left to repent No quarter - no escape No line of self defence Death rides out from the storm In terror we confess Our voice is heard no more His deed is merciless Death rides out from the storm Deface humanity There's no escape from this Human calamity Death rides out from the storm We turn to God and cry Ignored we turn to face This vengeance from the sky Messenger of death - wields the scythe Of man's damnation Messenger of death - holds his blade For termination

I carry with me all the love that you give You bought me serenity - a reason to live Our life is a journey That we took from the start We made all these memories together I can remember The first time that we met The feelings you gave to me - I'll never forget I knew from that moment When our love first began We'd last till the end of time forever And though there were bad times We stood by each other And did what we had to get through You live in my heart - when you're far away I see you in dreams - where I hear you say I'm with your forever in true love By light of the day - and stars above And when there were bad times We held on each other To face what we had to get through You live in my heart - when you're far away I see you in dreams - where I hear you say Look up to heaven - and I'll be there Still guiding my heart Still saying our prayer

Once upon a time in ancient centuries
I must leave from fear they send Journey with the dawn As I take the winding road Bow my head forlorn Now I must go I'm banished in exile I wander this land No faith in the future I'm in their command Cross over the mountains and valleys so wide I walk as I wonder With hope by my side All my friends are far away How I miss my home Where do I find peace of mind Guide me as I roam I cry for you I'm banished in exile To meet their demand Rejected messiah They don't understand I'm searching for something That's lost in my heart God knows I'm a sinner I'm falling apart If this is my destiny I've got to believe The passion inside me Has left me to bleed I'm banished in exile I wander this land No faith in the future I'm in their command Cross over the mountains And valleys so wide I walk as I wonder With hope by my side If this is my destiny I've got to believe This passion inside of me Has left me to bleed
They say we are fools We say look at you Long ago we were just a few Still say we don't need you We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone Think that we must have lost our way Running from the blaze, you were wrong Chose our course, counted off the days Enduring inner rage, we got strong We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone You deny everything that's good Acting as you would with your shame So we turned and left you all behind We don't need your kind, you're to blame We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone In the years to come you'll hear my name When darkness falls on Judgment Day They say we are fools We say look at you Long ago we were just a few Still we say we don't need you Think that we must have lost our way Running from the blaze, you were wrong We chose our course, counted off the days Enduring inner rage, we got strong We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone We don't wanna belong, we said all along, we just wanna be left alone
As the day begins to fade Eventide's when I'm afraid I'll never know if you appear But my senses say you're near In the dark when I write Telling fortunes for my life I'm sitting here by candle flame When will you arrive again
Anvils ignite Once again I watch them dance around the plain Sparks start to fly I can't speak From seeing answers that I seek Shapes start to form As I stare The shadows taunt as if to dare Ghostly embrace takes my heart Now I surrender and it starts Visions in the night Show me what is right Help me through the maze ...of mystery I would sell my soul If only I could know What the future holds And what will be Slowly my hand (my hand) Turns the page (the page) It never ceases to amaze Fill me with hope (with hope) If you can (fill me with hope) I will become a better man Visions in the night Show me what is right Help me through the maze ...of mystery I would sell my soul If only I could know What the future holds And what will be Visions come Into my mind Foretell the future Of mankind Only time will prove that I'm right Will my words come true (will my words come true) I can't deny the gift of foresight (I can't deny) There's nothing I can do Visions in the night Show me what is right Help me through the maze ...of mystery I would sell my soul If only I could know What the future holds And what will be Visions in the night Show me what is right Help me through the maze ...of mystery I would sell my soul If only I could know What the future holds And what will be
Hope in my heart As a new day has dawned I see your light on the wings of a dove Lifting me up as the dark clouds retreat Courage transcends and you make me complete Hope in my heart with the advent of spring I am reborn with the love that you bring (Help me before we dread it)
Now at last my dream is real I found peace True love can heal On the journey throughout time A new beginning has arrived At the crossroads of my life This new love keeps me alive I never knew that this could happen to me So many lonely days and nights I never knew that you were waiting for me Hope was out of dight And suddenly I see the future clearly No longer living in the past As I let go Living the dream Of my life I was alone no-one in sight This love - make me believe that you're the one Never give up - our day has come I never felt that this could happen to me So many lonely days and lonely nights I never knew that you were waiting for me Hope was out of sight And suddenly I see the future clearly Finally I know at last I can let go
I always tried to keep the faith And held my head up high I stood against those tides of fear And held onto my pride Never lost the will to live And this can't be denied In the calm before the storm In the calm before the storm

This one reveals my fate And so my friends farewell I can no longer wait My prophecies remain They live when I am gone The wisdom of the wise Eternally endure My legacy survives So you can rest assured The secret treasures here Make the what you will I see you I feel you I hear you As my life evolves These visions of the world Created in my mind I made them all begin The future of mankind Reveals what must be done To manifest through time I'll cross the rubicon Into infinity My quest has now been won I've found my destiny The darkness brings me home Rewarding me with peace I see you I feel you I hear you As my life evolves These visions of the world Created in my mind I made them all begin The future of mankind Reveals what must be done To manifest through time Now everything shall pass We all know that it must For nothing ever last We all return to dust I beg you not to mourn As I will never die I see you I feel you I hear you As my life dissolves These visions of the world Created in my mind I made them all begin The future of mankind Reveals what must be done To manifest through time Je suis au bout de ma vie Ma tâche est finie Je passe de ce monde à un autre Mes prémonitions survivront Prenez garde à mes paroles Par ce qu'elles adviendront Le patrimoine que j'ai laissé L'avenir de l'humanité
