1. Your Evil Ways
Well I remember
One cold November
The stormy weather
When the sky was dark and grey
You came to me
You stared right through me
Your power drew me astray
I couldn't turn it away
Now I am lost
But what's the cost
My soul is tossed
Into hells evil fire
With just one deal
The world I'd steal
But this pain is oh so real
Damned by dark desire
CHORUS
I lived my life from day to day
I couldn't let it slip away
I never should have ever thrown it away
I said I'll never die, but always pay
"Your evil ways"
Well I remember
One cold November
The stormy weather
When the sky was dark and grey
You came to me
You stared right through me
Your power drew me astray
I couldn't turn it away
CHORUS
I lived my life from day to day
I couldn't let it slip away
I never should have ever thrown it away
I said I'll never die, but always pay
"Your evil ways"
2. Cold Night
On a frozen night it came down from the heavens
With a blinding light it cracked the arctic air
It landed somewhere in the distance
So I headed out, wondering what was there
Walking out on a cold night
You feel the chill in the air
Walking out on a cold night
A deadly freeze everywhere
Then all at once something starts to grab me
I turn around to find it standing there
It reaches down ready to destroy me
But then it stopped as if it really cared
Walking out on a cold night
You feel the chill in the air
Walking out on a cold night
A deadly freeze everywhere
I looked into its eyes
I looked into its eyes, and found out
It was scared and far from home
Your eyes, his eyes
Your eyes, were not alone
I looked into its eyes
I looked into its eyes, and found out
It was scared and far from home
Your eyes, his eyes
Your eyes, were not alone
On a frozen night it soared up to the heavens
With a blinding light it cracked the arctic air
It's headed somewhere in the distance
And I hope it finds what's waiting for him there
3. Last Star
Our world was slowly dying
Freezing our whole past
Allour hopes were fading fast
A seven person crew
All that's left of mankind
On a journey to find a new home
Now we're searching for a place like earth
I know it's put there
Where our children can run free
But we've got to find it soon
I guess we're searching for the last star
The last star
Where all out dreams will travel far to the last star
Two years out there
And we haven't found a place
To support our dying race
and no one is really saying
What's truely on our mind
There's no trace where lost in space
Now we're searching for a place like earth
I know it's out there
Where our children can run free
But we've got to find it soon
I guess we're searching for the last star
The last star
Where all our dreams will tarvel far to the last star
The last star
The last star
The last star
Somewhere deep in hiding I know your out there
All we've got to do is find you
and we'll make no mistakes like last time
Cause this may truely be our last chance
Last Star
The last star
The last star
The last star
The last star
The last star
Somewhere out there
Way out there
I'm longing for home
I'm the last survivor
On this cold and lonely ship
As we touch down I'm all alone
Greener then the valleys
Bluer then the sea
Our home that we never found
Now we're searching for a place like earth
I know it's out there
Where our children can run free
But we've got to find it soon
I guess we're searching for the last star
The last star
Where all our dreams will tarvel far to the last star
Now we're searching for a place like earth
I know it's out there
Where our children can run free
But we've got to find it soon
I guess we're searching for the last star
The last star
Where all our dreams will tarvel far to the last star
The last star
The last star
The last star
The last star
4. Madness Ascending
People talking, no one listening,
No one understands
Failure to communicate,
Sweeps across the land
A world that's fair, full of hope
Only in our dreams
Children starving, in the streets
We're busy feeding war machines
Madness ascending!
Darkness descending!
Madness ascending!
Darkness descending!
And we're turning out the light
Turning out the light
Slip into the night
Slip into the night
Dead without a fight
Dead without a fight
Now we're turning out the light
Turning out the light
Slip into the night
Slip into the night
Dead without a fight
Dead without a fight
People talking, no one listening
No one understands
Failure to communicate
Sweeps across the land
5. Radar Love
I've been driving all night, my hands wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head, that drives my heel
It's my baby callin' says I need you here
And it's half past four and i'm shifting gear
CHORUS
When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends me a cable coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all
We've got this thing that's called
Radar love
We've got a wave in the air
It's radar love
The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee is coming on strong
The road's got me hypnotised
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise
CHORUS
When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends me a cable coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all
We've got this thing that's called
Radar love
Don't need letters at all
It's radar love
No more speed I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool, now gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go!
And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Pandemonium's coming on strong
And the news man sang his same old song
One more radar lover gone
CHORUS
When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends me a cable coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all
We've got this thing that's called
Radar love
We've got a line in the sky
Radar - radar love
Radar - radar love
Radar - radar love
Radar - radar love
With a radar love
6. Driving Away
Your girl just left, walked out the door
And your mom just called her a whore
Your dad is bitchin' about your hair
And all the old folks just stop and stare
But out in the driveway sits your release
No one can catch her, no not the police
A 69 Charger with the speed to kill
Looks fucking food just standing still
CHORUS
Driving away
Your driving away
I'm pushed to the red line and it's hard to steer
I'm catching rubber in every gear
440 Magnum just starting to purr
12.9 seconds and I'm gone in a blurr
CHORUS
Driving away
Your driving away
Driving away
Your driving away
Pulled to the red light she looks over here
Her boyfriend's Supra ain't nothin' to fear
Come on you rice burner I'll blow you away
These streets are home and I love to play
CHORUS
Driving away
Your driving away
Driving away
Your driving away
Driving away
Your driving away
Driving away
Your driving away
Driving away
Your driving away
7. The Will to Kill
They set you down in a hostile place
But you had no will to run their race
They gave you a weapon with a license to kill
You had the way but you had no will
No will
So now you stand there with death all around you
And wonder when and if it will find you
They gave you a weapon with a license to kill
And they said "Don't quit until you get your fill"
No Will
You had the weapon but you had no will
No Will
You had the license, the license to kill
They said go out and do it
Son be a real man
Throw down your conscience
It's all in God's hands
They told you, told you when
They sold you, sold you then
But you couldn't do it, take a life
So they'll cut you with the knife
And the will, the will to kill
Now the war is over, no one left to fight
Their big machinechurns into the night
And they'll give him a weapon wiht a license to kill
And don't you quit until you get your fill
No Will
You had the weapon but you had no will
No Will
You had the license, the license to kill
They said go out and do it
Son be a real man
Throw down your conscience
It's all in God's hands
8. When It Comes to the End
It happened once upon a time
I was yours and you were all mine
Something made our love hesitate
Now it seems that all I do
Sit here dreaming of you
Then one night you came home late
CHORUS
And I said wait - wait
Hold on just one minute
Can't you see what you're doing to me
Wait hold on to me forever
Don't you leave
How does it feel when it comes to the end
I know I'll never fall in love again
Finding you was the hardest part
Girl you just left me within a broken heart
You just left me, you just left
Slammed the door and you just walked away
Now that time has passed me by
Wonder why I even tried
Decide if it's me or him now!
CHORUS
And I said wait - wait
Hold on just one minute
Can't you see what you're doing to me
Wait hold on to me forever
Don't you leave
How does it feel when it comes to the end
I know I'll never fall in love again
Finding you was the hardest part
Girl you just left me within a broken heart
You just left me, you walked away
Somtimes all i do is dream of you
It happened once upon a time
I was yours and you were all mine
Something made our love hesitate
How does it feel
I siad I've got to know
How does it feel
I siad I've got to know
How does it feel
I siad I've got to know
How does it feel
How does it feel
9. Snowblind
What you get and what you see
Are things that come easily
Feeling happy in my pain
Icicles within my brain
Something blowing in my head
Winter voice it soon will spread
There to please my very soul
Makes me happy makes me cold
My eyes are blind but I can see
The snow flake glisten on the dream
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel the snow flake leaving me
Let the winter sun shine on
Let me feel the frost of dawn
Build my dreams through flakes of snow
Soon I'll feel the chilling go
Don't you think I know what I'm doing
Don't tell me that I'm doning it wrong
Your the one that's really the loser
This is where I feel I belong
Crystal world with little flower
Turns my days to forzen hours
Lying snow blind in the sun
Who may I say you've become
10. Hell Is The Last Place
Through the ages
Upon their deathbed
Cry for redemption
With their final breath
Fools they are searching
For something higher
Find me laughing
Trial by fire
Hell is the last place
That you'll ever be
Mine is the last face
That you'll ever see
On earth they fear me
I'm evil they cry
But their heart's are black
As black as the sky
Fools they are searching
For something higher
Find me laughing
Trial by fire
Hell is the last place
That you'll ever be
Mine is the last face
That you'll ever see
Hell is the last place
That you'll ever be
Mine is the last face
That you'll ever see
So don't be surprised
When you open your eyes
The truth that they fed you
Was nothing but lies
Hell is the last place
That you'll ever be
Mine is the last face
That you'll ever see
So don't be surprised
When you open your eyes
The truth that they fed you
Was nothing but lies
Hell is the last place
That you'll ever be
Mine is the last face
That you'll ever see
