1. Sins Of Your Father
Electric tears are falling, fall like rain
Ride on your misfortune like a train
Feed that burning anger into that child
Wind him up with hatred running wild
Take a listen to the howling wind
Take you with it, never seen again
Take a listen to the howling wind
And when the morning breaks
I know, I know, I know
Nobody foolin’
Living on past mistakes
You try, you try, you try
You’ll never change it
Sins of your father
I heard that child was calling out my name
I turned a deaf ear to him just the same
Now you’ve grown so twisted and your pain
Has turned into a dagger used for gain
Take a listen to the howling wind
Take you with it, never seen again
Take a listen to the howling wind
And when the morning breaks
I know, I know, I know
Nobody foolin’
Living on past mistakes
You try, you try, you try
You’ll never change it
Sins of your father
Take a listen to the howling wind
Take you with it, never seen again
Take a listen to the howling wind
And when the morning breaks
I know, I know, I know
Nobody foolin’
Living on past mistakes
You try, you try, you try
You’ll never change it
Sins of your father
2. World`s On Fire
Good people turn your head
Listen what your good book says
You’re preaching kill and maim
Religion is your game
Fight – you’ll never be right
This world’s on fire
Sinking higher and higher
See now, the liar
This world’s on fire
White noise goin’ through my veins
Emotion can’t explain
Oh child, take me by the hand
Blow you straight into the Promised Land
Fight – you’ll never be right
This world’s on fire
Sinking higher and higher
See now, the liar
This world’s on fire
Good people turn your head
Listen what your good book says
Your bullets kill and maim
Red, black, white, it’s all the same
Fight – you’ll never be right
This world’s on fire
Sinking higher and higher
See now, the liar
This world’s on fire
3. Psycho Motel
Here’s a man that’s got no reason
Here’s a man that’s got no friends
Here’s a child that got no love now
Here he comes, now he’s gonna make amends
Got a room that’s full of pictures
Pretty women in leather and lace
At night, he hears those voices
Hears them tell it to him right into his face
Alone in the darkness, I see your face
It drifts through my dreams without a trace
I was feeling rough and weary
I wasn’t feeling too well
And since my baby left me
I checked in at Psycho Motel
Here’s a man that got the power
Here’s a man that’s badder than hell
Here’s a man making speeches on TV
You’ll find him down at the Psycho Motel
Alone in the darkness, I see your face
It drifts through my dreams without a trace
The world was rough and weary
I wasn’t feeling too well
And since my baby left me
I checked in at Psycho Motel
4. Western Shore
In this world
When the times are changing, moving on endlessly
Like a river’s rolling journey onto the sea
Won’t you help me find a way
Into a better day
Help me find a way into the light
All my life
Stranded on that western shore
Fighting battles in my mind
Answers I can’t find
Standing on that western shore
Could it be
I’m not half the man you saw inside of me
Left out empty-handed with a broken dream
Won’t you help me find a way
Into a better day
Help me find a way into the light
All my life
Stranded on that western shore
Fighting battles in my mind
Answers I cannot find
Standing on that western shore
Cast my dreams upon the tide
Let the water cool my pride
On that western shore
Tell me all about it
Tell me where you’re going
Show me how to love you
Won’t you help me find a way
Into a better day
Won’t you help me find a way
Into the light
All my life
Stranded on that western shore
Fighting battles in my mind
Answers I can’t find
Standing on that western shore
Cast my dreams upon the tide
Let the water cool my pride
Standing on that western shore
Answers I can’t find
Stranded on that western shore
Answers I cannot find...
5. Rage
Standing underneath the rainbow
Looking at the sun, I don’t need a gun
Armed with my remote control
Watching all the fun, they might kill someone
Heard about the curfew
But I’m leaving town tonight, in my own jet-plane
Major’s gonna make a speech
Says everything’s alright, it’s soon over now
Waiting for the avalanche and churning out the lies
Telling all the people that this is a big surprise
There’s a rage – rising in my neighborhood
There’s a rage – going on and on and on
You and my are sitting by the pool
So you think I’m ruthless
Obnoxious kind of guy, I do charity
Gonna throw a barbecue
For paupers in Bel Air, they adore me
Waiting for the avalanche and churning out the lies
Telling all the people that this is a big surprise
There’s a rage – rising in my neighborhood
There’s a rage – going on and on and on
You and my are sitting by the pool
Waiting for the avalanche and churning out the lies
Telling all the people that this is a big surprise
There’s a rage – rising in my neighborhood
There’s a rage – going on and on and on
You and my are sitting by the pool
6. Killing Time
In this place, we’re killin’ time
Money talks, we tow the line
Pump that mud into the sea
Baby’s born to pain and misery
See that fire up in the sky
Burning holes, skin to fry
Keep them free from your disease
If you ain’t got the dollars, you can’t be free
I got a right to know
Let the truth be known
I got a right to know
Save me from the killing time
Save me, I’m not your kind
Save me from the killing time
Save me
No more sun to light your sky
No more souls for you to buy
Money’s gone, power too
Judgement day comin’ up on you
I got a right to know
Let the truth be known
I got a right to know
Save me from the killing time
Save me, I’m not your kind
Save me from the killing time
Save me, I’m not your kind
Save me
7. Time Is A Hunter
Home in the evening, turn out the light
Tell yourself it’s gonna be alright
Sleep don’t come easy, feelin’ like hell
The dogs are still chasin’ the hole that you fell
Bad situation, you walk out the door
Saw the temptation was the final straw
Well, you try to control it but something’s got to give
Don’t want to die, but you’re too scared to live
Time is a hunter
Time is a hunter
So out of touch seems so unreal
Can’t face the truth, got to know how you feel
All gets too much, seems so unreal
Got to turn ‘round, come down and put your feet back on the ground
Well, the tower is high and the river runs deep
And the weight in my heart is too much to keep
Adrift in an ocean of pain and despair
Hands keep me down as I come up for air
Time is a hunter
Time is a hunter
So out of touch, seems so unreal
Can’t face the truth, got to know how you feel
All gets too much, seems so unreal
Got to turn ‘round, look down and get your feet back on the ground
‘Cause time is a hunter
8. Money To Brurn
Making your way down Forty-second Street now
Well you owl like the wind and
You’re draggin’ your feet on the ground
Don’t care ‘bout tomorrow coming
‘Cause you know you’re heading straight for the moon
You forget about all of your sorrow
‘Cause you know you’re gonna be there soon, you got money to burn
You did it all in the name of Rock and Roll
But you dug down so deep that
You can’t find you way out of that hole
Bad habits are hard to break
But you know you’re gonna reap what you sow
Well, the world is knocking upon your door
All you say is easy come, easy go
You got money to burn
And you know that she will never learn
She got money to burn
Baby, watch your bridges burn
Walking on fire, sleeping on nails
Skidding on razors, coming off the rails
9. City Of Light
Not word, can’t hear a sound
Nobody seen, no one around
I’m in a sweat, can’t stand the heat
I feel, risin’ from the city street
I’m in a rage, I can’t contain
Someone free from the endless pain
I tried so hard, it can’t be fair
I’m circled by the vultures of despair
Somebody try to help me
Guess what’s going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
Been pushed too far, you had enough
Just a boy but you act so tough
The fruits of evil, they taste so sweet
Nobody told you ‘bout the poison meat
He’s in a rage, he can’t contain
Like a drug that’s shooting through his veins
You try to scream but there’s no sound
You’re movin’ closer to the hallowed ground
Somebody try to help me
Guess what’s going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
Somebody try to help me
Guess what’s going down
In the city of lights
Darkness all around
In the city of lights
10. Excuse Me
Excuse me, will you pardon me for saying
I’ve been loving you for such a long, long time
Excuse me, but I feel the light is fading
And I guess I misinterpreted the signs
Excuse me, for intruding on your privacy
Fences that you build to ease the pain
Hope you don’t mind
Hope you don’t mind
Hope you don’t mind
Miss Delilah, where’s my heart and home
Miss Delilah, playing in her dome
Excuse me for requiring your honesty
I can see your shadow dancing on the wall
Excuse me but the truth is hiding in your dreams
If you climb the crosses, you must risk the fall
You were so right
You were so right
You were so right
Miss Delilah, where’s my heart and home?
Miss Delilah, playing in her dome
It’s been a sunny day, such a sunny day
Miss Delilah, where’s my heart and home?
Hope you don’t mind
Hope you don’t mind
Hope you don’t mind
Miss Delilah, where’s my heart and home?
Miss Delilah, playing in her dome
It’s been a sunny day, such a sunny day
Miss Delilah, where’s my heart and home?
