1. Better the Devil You Know
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of what you might find?
Do you hide under the sheets at night?
And close your eyes?
Is there a wolf at the door?
Something screaming at the top of the stairs
Ghostly shadows outside your window
Is there anyone there?
It's something that creeps up on you
And starts playing tricks with your mind
If a bogey man's waiting for you
Imagine the horrors you'll find
Chorus
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Is there a madman out there?
With bloodshot eyes that glow in the dark?
A headless rider haunting the street
With a deadly wail
Feel the chill in the air
Disturbing shapes that paralyse your mind
The supernatural is taking control
But you can't move
It's something that creeps up on you
And starts playing tricks with your mind
If a bogey man's waiting for you
Imagine the horrors you'll find
Chorus
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
You can run from the devil
You can run from the dark
You can hide from yourself, but you won't get far
You can run from the devil
You can run from the dark
You can hide from yourself, but you won't get far
Run from the devil, run from the devil
Run from the devil, run from the devil
Chorus
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
Whoa-oh don't look behind you
Better the devil you know
2. Dead of the Night
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
When you step out in the night
You can see the lightning strike
When you walk out on the moor
You can hear the thunder roar
The dogs are howling in the street
There's a full moon in the sky
You're just a scream away… so scream!
Chorus
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
All the creatures of the dark
Have awoken from their sleep
All the demons of the deep
Are dancin' in the street
Manic laughter all around
But you don't make a sound
Eyes are watching every move
Who will they choose?
Chorus
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
There's nuthin' you can say, there's nuthin' you can do
There's no place left to hide, cos they're all after you
There's nuthin' you can say, there's nuthin' you can do
There's no place left to hide, they're all after you
Chorus
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
In the dead of the night you can see the spirits rise
In the dead of the night you can hear the cold wind cry
In the dead, in the dead, in the dead of the night
In the dead, in the dead, in the dead of the night
In the dead, in the dead, in the dead of the night
In the dead, in the dead, in the dead of the night
In the dead
3. Standing on the Edge
Chorus
Standing on the edge of the world
Don't look back this is the ride of your life
Standing on the edge of the world
Engines on, it's your turn to fly
Bright lights all around you
Waves of sound inside your head
Black hole in the distance
It's just a dream somebody said
It's just a magic flight
Is it day or night?
We're on the edge of time now
It's just a crazy scene
A million laser beams
Kaleidoscope it seems
All round me now
And all the stars are out
In the sky tonight
And all the stars are out
In the heavens tonight
Chorus
Standing on the edge of the world
Don't look back this is the ride of your life
Standing on the edge of the world
Engines on, it's your turn to fly
Dark clouds sailing by me
Red mist a raging sea
Floating worlds passing by me
Can't believe the things I can see
It's just a magic flight, is it day or night?
We're on the edge of time now
It's just a crazy scene, a million laser beams
Kaleidoscope it seems all round me now
And all the stars are out in the sky tonight
And all the stars are out in the heavens tonight
Chorus
Standing on the edge of the world
Don't look back this is the ride of your life
Standing on the edge of the world
Engines on, it's your turn to fly
And on another day, we'll find another way
To go reaching for the stars
There'll be another day to find another way
We'll go reaching for the stars
Chorus
Standing on the edge of the world
Don't look back this is the ride of your life
Standing on the edge of the world
Engines on, it's your turn to fly
Standing on the edge of the world
Don't look back this is the ride of your life
Standing on the edge of the world
Engines on, it's your turn to fly
4. Taking on the World
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
Too many years in the wilderness
This time we got it right
We've lived too long in the distant past
We're ready for the fight!
There's an air of expectancy
We're reaching for the sky
And in the 21st century
From the ruins we will rise!
The battle rages in every heart and every mind
We stand like heroes and we will win the prize
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
We'll ride the wave of emotion
Everybody's on a high
We'll lift the spirit of the nation
Well at least we'll try
We gonna take it all the way
There'll be no turning back
Gotta see the journey through
And take our place at last
The battle rages in every heart and every mind
We stand like heroes and we will win the prize
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
Fighting for freedom, we've got a reason
Survival's the name of the game
Marching together, living forever
That's our ultimate aim
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world this time
Whoa-oh-oh-oh we'll take the world
Taking on the world, taking on the world
Taking on the world, taking on the world
Taking on the world, taking on the world
Taking on the world, taking on the world tonight
5. Temptation
Can you feel the blood run through your veins?
Can you feel the magic in the air?
With just one kiss you will betray
And with one touch you'll turn away – turn away
Chorus
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Do you know the meaning of eternal life?
And do you know the secrets of the night – of the night?
With just one kiss you will betray
And with one touch you'll turn away – turn away
Chorus
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Chorus
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
Every time I look at you
Temptation
Every little thing you do
Temptation
6. Warriors
Warriors - yeah, yeah yeah
Warriors - yeah, yeah yeah
Chorus
Warriors beware the night of a thousand angels – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors beware the eyes of the living dead – yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey what you doing, show your face you're not welcome around here
You looking for trouble, better get out this ain't your side of town
Caught in the crossfire, wheeling dealers asking more for the pound
You're in a state of madness; there ain't no space round for anything real
Chorus
Warriors beware the night of a thousand angels – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors beware the eyes of the living dead – yeah, yeah, yeah
Strange lights in the distance, maybe they've landed, maybe they're here
No go out in the desert, the heat is on, but who knows the truth
Stands and faces sunset, the evening sky goes red with the dust
Hell's bells are ringing out there - the last in line will reap the harvest you sow
Warriors beware the night of a thousand angels – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors beware the eyes of the living dead – yeah, yeah, yeah
Legions of the dark stand tall in the face of your enemy
Legions of the dark stand tall in the face of death
The sign on the street says paradise; I think I'll take a ride
Hey man where's the rainbows end?
All the cats round here are blind as bats
But the roads have eyes
Hey man that's weird
Warriors beware the night of a thousand angels – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors beware the eyes of the living dead – yeah, yeah, yeah
Legions of the dark stand tall in the face of your enemy
Legions of the dark stand tall in the face of death
Warriors beware the night of a thousand angels – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors beware the eyes of the living dead – yeah, yeah, yeah
Warriors! Warriors! Warriors! Warriors!
7. Live Again
I was a lost soul travelling in the dark
Too many memories for me
I couldn't let go
The past still haunted me
Like the ghost of someone else's dream
I still feel the heartache now
But everything has changed
Time's the greatest healer
But will it take away the pain
I still feel the heartache now
But everything has changed
Chorus
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta take away these chains that bind
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
We search for answers
But the question still remains
Do we wait forever or move on?
You can't forget them
The things that mean so much
But we all deserve that second chance
I still feel the heartache now
But everything has changed
Time's the greatest healer
But will it take away the pain
I still feel the heartache now
But everything has changed
Chorus
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta take away these chains that bind
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta live again, Gotta live again
Gotta live again, Gotta live again
Gotta live again, Gotta live again
Gotta live again, Gotta live again
Gotta live again, Gotta live again
Chorus
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta take away these chains that bind
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta take away these chains that bind
Gotta break away these chains and start to live again
Gotta take away these chains that bind
8. Obsession
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession
Lyin' eyes in the night, deceitful yet so cool
You'll never know they are there, watching every move
Crazy love, shattered dreams how'd you get to this
You'll never stop until you've broken every rule
You swore that you would never let it come to this
You'd walk away and let it be
Your obsession is ruining my life
Your deadly game is killing me
Chorus
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy and pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession
Poison letters, twisted nerve, vengeance is so cruel
Madness is all around; don't treat me like a fool
Hit and run, kiss and tell, everything to lose
Out of the shadows now like strangers in the night
You swore that you would never let it come to this
You'd walk away and let it be
Your obsession is ruining my life
Your deadly game is killing me
Chorus
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy and pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession
There's something in your eyes, there's something in your mind
There's something in your look, there's something in your smile
There's something in your voice, there's something in your stare
There's something in your stare, there's something in the night
You swore that you would never let it come to this
You'd walk away and let it be
Your obsession is ruining my life
Your deadly game is killing me
Chorus
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy and pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy & pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy and pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy & pain
Obsession, Obsession love is a deadly game
Obsession, Obsession jealousy and pain
9. Change
A tortured soul who's down on his luck,
Crying in the rain
Like a wounded soldier who's calling out
Through the hurt and the pain
And that's the way it feels
It's tearing me inside
And this hurt, it's for real
It's tearing me inside
Chorus
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
A homeless traveller who's been scarred by life
Emotions running wild
A helpless victim of someone's love
Caught in the crossfire
And that's the way it feels
It's tearing me inside
And this hurt, it's for real
It's tearing me inside
Chorus
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
I just need someone to change my life
I just need to be with you
