L.A. LYRICS
"Demo 2" (1985 Demo)
1. Down The Cross
2. News On The Loose
3. Point Of Uncontrol
1. Down The Cross
On the shore we see the day of doom begin
We hear it coming through Atlantic summer winds
I felt Hell rise long before this mournful day
The Cross is weaker than before
The dawn of evil on the shore
On the horizon, through the haze, they quickly move
They’re coming closer every time I take a look
As I stand there taking the power in sight
I’m slowly dying ‘cause my time has come
I’m the Eagle and I’m done
Yeah, I’m on the run
Down, down the Cross
Down, down the Cross
The Cross is weaker now
Down, down the Cross
I said the Cross is weaker
Down, down the Cross
On the sixth day of the sixth month
We’re gonna lose
In bloody waters under nameless soldiers’ boots
But I’ll be back, yes, I’ll return in sweet revenge
I’ll appear again some day, some way
I’m the Eagle, I always win in the end
Down, down the Cross
Down, down the Cross
I said the Cross is weaker now
Down, down the Cross
I said the Cross is weaker now
Down, down the Cross
2. News On The Loose
The city awakes, it lives for today
We feel so secure
But life is a bore behind all these walls
We need some excitement for sure
Watching the news while you’re still in bed
The wheel of sensation turns around your head
Stay in its dream, believe what you see
And enjoy all the tears that the children shed
Gaze at the world in some kind of trance
Then you’re high on words of the Promised Land
You hit the rainbow through your TV set
Then you’re just flying high among the headlines of death
News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy
Inside it’s shady and faking reality
Papers on fire
It’s burning desire for the wildest lines
It’s not news alright but they’re just part of a fight
Where the winner’s he who lies
But stay where you are, in your iron cage
Wasting your life, just give it away
You’re chained in words but you’ve still got time
To make your own dreams, but then you’re satisfied
News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy
Inside it’s shady and faking reality
News is on the loose
Can’t tell the maker from the referee
News is on the loose
The lead is straight or was it bent?
News is on the loose
I saw the lies
Bewteen the lines
News is on the loose
Can’t tell the maker from the referee
News is on the loose
The lead is straight or was it bent?
News is on the loose
It’s out of control
There’s no way to hold on to the truth in life
The rumours in town are running around
‘Till they all end up with lies
But who wants to know what it’s really like
Out in the streets, when it’s safer inside
You needn’t know anything except what you see
By the break of dawn, in front of your TV
News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy
Inside it’s shady and faking reality
News is on the loose
Can’t tell the maker from the referee
News is on the loose
The lead is straight or was it bent?
News is on the loose
I’m dragged around by my simplicity
News is on the loose
There’s more to life than meets the lens
3. Point Of Uncontrol
Sneaking through the 80’s
Trying hard to survive the easy way
But you won’t escape
Cause you’re just too weak
Sliding down the razor
The blade is sharp and the edge is near
And it’s there to cut away your future dreams
We’ve build up an empire of flashing steel
It’s a nuclear shield
And we’re hiding deep inside
In silent fear
We can’t afford to lose the race
Cause if we pass the line and come in second rate
We’ll all be damned
At least that’s what they say
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
The madmen had us spellbound
Frustrated in the palm of their hands
And as love was left behind
We forgot how to cry
They’re guiding us through darkness
Protect our souls behind iron bars
And it’s clear for all to see
It’s defend or destroy
But can they still control it
Just one mistake and we’re blown away
In the war machine
We’re blown sky high
We’re sliding down the razor
The blade is sharp and the edge is near
And it’s there to cut your veins
And drain your blood
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
“There was a time, when the planet was a sophisticated net of perfection and harmony.
But that was long before human fear turned it into a silent ice cold desert, drifting around the universe for no obvious reason.
Destroyed and dead.
Civilised creatures in other worlds, let this be an example of an evolutionary mistake.
The only thinking animal.
Man.”
But still we trust this madness
Just one mistake and we’re blown away
Still we don’t wanna see
That it’s a mindless game
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
We’ve reached the point of uncontrol
