1. Devil to Pay
Devil to pay
We have to live our lives like rats in a race.
Waiting for someone to fall.
Waiting to take his place.
We have to stand and fight.
Endurance is bliss.
Nothing is for free.
Nothing just happens like this.
(chorus)
Devil to pay – devil to pay
Devil to pay – devil to pay
Devil to pay – devil to pay
Devil to pay – devil to pay
All that really matters is what we can gain.
Always be the highest
on top of the food-chain.
We have to be the strongest.
Inferior to none.
Never stop or slow down.
Never look back to the fallen.
(repeat chorus)
(break)
I take what I can get
and give all that it takes.
Life is nothing more
then the chances you create.
I always look ahead
and never to the past.
I’m living every day
as if it was my last.
You may disagree with me - say that I am wrong.
But if you like it or not,
we have to run along.
We have to play the game,
time and time again.
Nobody cares about the weak.
Nobody ever gives a damn.
(repeat chorus)
2. Edge of the Knife
Edge of the knife
It’s in my blood,
it’s in my veins like poison running through.
I cannot help it,
I cannot fight it, there’s nothing I can do.
Hungry for more,
hungry to live every second I exist.
I cannot pretend,
I cannot fake it, that’s just the way it is.
(chorus)
This is the way I want to live my life.
Day by day,
on the edge of the knife.
Stubborn as hell,
is what I am and I’m damn proud of it.
I won’t change,
I won’t give in, I choose not to fit in !
It’s never enough,
it’s never right for a fool like myself.
Never too far,
never too high, no rest for the restless.
(repeat chorus)
(break)
I cannot imagine an ordinary life,
without thrills – without highs.
I live on the edge of the knife,
razorsharp untill the day I die.
Untill the day I die !
Untill the day I die !
I refuse to live your way,
useless, pointless, in decay !
Living only to count the days,
and let your life slip away.
Let your life slip away !
Let your life slip away !
(repeat chorus)
3. What You Give Is What You get
What you give is what you get
How the hell did it come to this ?
What went wrong ?
What did I miss ?
You turn my own words against me.
Spreading lies and shit about me.
(chorus)
It’s always a matter of respect.
What you give is what you get.
I will never forgive,
I will never forget.
What you give is what you get.
It makes me sad to end like this.
It makes me mad.
It makes me clench my fists
I’d like to kick your ass around the place.
Smash that smile right off your face.
(repeat chorus)
(break)
I gave you my respect
and this is what I get ?
I’m sure the day will come
that you will feel regret !
I put my trust in you
and this is what you do ?
I promise you this ;
once but never twice !
It’s not that I am a violent man.
I try to do good.
I do the best I can.
Nobody’s perfect and neither am I.
Mess with me and I will show you why.
(repeat chorus)
4. My Soul Is Black
My soul is black
This is the age of decadence.
No moral values and no restraints.
Anything goes and all is not enough.
The strong grow stronger
and the weak suffer.
I care for nothing and for no one !
I never give a damn about the rest !
(chorus)
My soul is black as I am full of greed.
This rotten world lays at my feeth.
My soul is black as I lie and cheat.
My soul is black and I don’t give a shit.
Life is a struggle to survive.
Killing each other to stay alive.
We just take what we need at any cost.
No mercy or pity,
all reason seems lost.
I care for nothing and for no one !
I never give a damn about the rest !
(repeat chorus)
(break)
It’s in our nature to kill and conquer.
To devour and feed our hunger.
We are the most vicious of animals.
We take what we want
and we want it all.
(repeat chorus)
Anything goes and all is not enough.
The strong grow stronger
and the weak suffer.
We take what we want and we want it all…
5. Bring me Down
Bring me down
I don’t care what you say.
Wetter or not you believe in me.
I don’t give a damn about your opinion,
I know who I am !
(chorus)
You can’t break me.
You can try,
but you can’t bring me down.
You can’t break me.
Try if you must,
but you can’t bring me down.
You may think I am weak.
You hear my cries and see my tears.
Make no mistake,
I can have a lot more then you can take.
(repeat chorus)
(break)
You can’t bring me down
You can’t bring me down
You can’t bring me down
You can’t bring me down
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus)
6. Stronger Than You
Stronger than you
All my life I walked against the stream.
Made my own choices,
lived the way I want.
Often did I stand alone in this world.
Ran against the wall,
time and time again.
(chorus)
I am what I am in all that I do.
Stronger than you !
Stronger than you !
We all have our demons and ghosts to chase.
We all have our problems,
and make mistakes.
I’ve turned all my weakness into strength.
Healed my wounds,
became a stronger man.
(repeat chorus)
(break)
Our life is determined by the choices we make,
by the turns we take,
wetter right or wrong.
I would rather regret the things I did,
then feel regret
for what I did not do.
(repeat chorus)
