1. Flight
Eye's of the night, keepin' me right,
Engine is roarin' like hell.
Wings on my side, shakes off the light,
Ready to go - I can tell.
You better sit upright or you fall down,
No one's gonna help you miles around.
There's no place for tears or fear of heights,
Nothing - just the thunder of flights.
Fly forever and try cross over the sky -
Feelin' the wind blow.
Cry for losers who died,
They watchin' you fly - over the rainbow.
Scary how fast, you're down in the dust,
Watchin' the sign in the sky.
Kill or get killed, glory and thrill
Waitin' for one who'll survive.
I had a dream last night and I say you burn.
Right on the edge of the point of no return,
No more excuses and no more comin' back,
Light from the suns turnin' black.
2. 1348
Future's comin' from the past,
Who's first and who's last.
Fire's risin' off the ground,
Fear's the king, entire town
Lookin' up across the sky,
Which one's turn to die...
All are one and world's apart,
Undertakers workin' hard.
You'll remember the loss of fate,
December '48...
Devil's mark is on your face,
Black Death's all around the place,
Rotten bodies it's where it at.
Friends are gone, and rat's get fat,
Cross on fire fights the night.
Crowd in front of the Heaven's Gate,
December '48...
3. Wasted Time
You're out huntin' if I'm the prize - so roll the ball!
I'm like a mad dog, keep fightin' - back against the wall!
Come on I'll show you the world you never seen,
Come on I'll teach you - good fight is when you win!
(So listen up)
Wasted time, like a poison in my wine, I call it...
The perfect crime - like a bullet in the back it search you.
Time is running out it hurts you,
Goin' down because of wasted time...
I'll keep on tryin' - NO ONE ALLOWED - I'm out too late.
See losers cryin' - the sort thing I use to hate...
4. Stay Down
They have promised you the world,
And left you on your own,
Now all your life is built on fear,
Lies and hearts of stone.
And now I realize,
The promises were lies,
I'm walkin' endless miles,
I can't believe my eyes...
Are you fightin' for survive?
It's a lousy way to live.
A wish to make it through the night,
And nothin' else to give,
And now I realize,
The promises were lies,
I'm walkin' endless miles,
I can't believe my eyes...
Stay down low down,
Nobody cares if you're still hangin' around.
Stay down low down,
Who will you run to and who will you pray to,
When you're down on the ground...
Who will help you when you fall,
Who will pull you up?
When you're prayin' for revenge,
Who will make you stop?
Stay down low down,
Nobody cares if you're still hangin' around.
Stay down low down,
Who will you run to and who will you pray to,
When you're down on the ground...
And now I realize,
The promises were lies,
I'm walkin' endless miles,
I can't believe my eyes...
5. On The Run
I got those wheels for nothin', yeah, some cash to burn.
Talk of the town keep movin',
No excuses, no return.
Too dumb to steal, too proud to beg - don't shake my tree.
I've been around the block,
There money's tight and nothing's free!
An angels face and butcher eyes, a quiet prayer - pack of lies.
They call you fate - I call you pain and here I go again!...
On the run,
My journey's just begun! I'm
On the run,
Oh God, what have I done!
On the run,
Like a unforgiven son, I'm
On the run!
Like a night I'm chasin' down...
I won't take any crap and I'm not comin' back,
I gonna give you kind of peace of mind,
No - shadow's right behind your back.
I've pumped it up, you've called me bad news, now I'm gone.
No pity regrets 'bout,
Things I've said and things I've done.
Look all around the place - law's gone, there's no respect,
Don't get too close I've got my reputation to protect!
So check it out the place is dead - low life, no fun.
You listen up, and listen good -
I'm better off just livin' on the run!
6. Stranded
I see a face in the night,
Why do I feel I'm in danger?
Image of me get pushed to the side,
Just by the eyes of the stranger.
Anyway, all the faces I've seen,
Over and over again,
Everytime, when the sun goes down,
Act the same - just the same.
Stranded - so far away from home,
Stranded - I've made, it happen all alone.
Stranded - so far away from home,
Stranded - in the eyes of the storm...
(it's written all across the wall)
Open it up, turn it up - wild!
Can you just give me a reason?
Livin' it up, give it up, walkin' up blind -
Leavin' yourself in a prison.
Anyway, all the places I've been.
Over and over again,
Everytime, when the lights goin' down,
Looks the same - over and over again.
Keep your head above the ground -
Trouble wants you to drown.
Don't get pushed and kicked around,
Don't let them put you down.
Someone's like to see you fall -
Tear the sucker down!
Let the whole world crash and burn -
Keep your head above the ground.
7. Keyboard Solo
8. Martial Arts
9. Far Away
In the misty morning after darkest night,
I feel the heat, I do, and I remember,
Promises are broken now you're gone.
Don't turn me down,
I'm lost and I surrender...
Give me just a sign,
Help to cross the line,
We'll back time and starts again.
Far away - I can you're callin',
Far away - callin' up my name.
Far away - and the tears are fallin',
Far away - no one is to blame...
Some feelings won't come easy,
You have to hit them hard.
You've burned the bridge,
And I fell in a sea of sorrow.
Can you hear my prayer,
Just bring back yesterday,
I feel the pain, it makes me hate tomorrow...
Take me for a while,
Just to make me smile.
I wish I'll never ever cry again.
Far away - I can hear you're callin',
Far away - callin' up my name.
Far away - and the tears are fallin',
Far away - no one is to blame...
10. Last Goodbye
Crime is done, I'm alone in the night.
There's no one to save, and there's no one to fight,
Now you're gone and I'm just looking around,
Chasin' shadows and traces in the sky, on the ground.
I pay for the miracle,
Father, don't take him away.
Rise up for a miracle,
Save him or don't let me stay...
Such a shame now you're out of my reach,
And it hurts, I don't know should I curse, should I preach?
Play the game - put a gun to your head,
Smile - give me a shot - pull the trigger - you're dead...
Goin' down, you're goin' down all the way,
Down the needle park.
Goin' down, you're goin' down like a little child,
Lost in the dark...
Last, last goodbye - you'll take yours and I'll take mine.
Dance around candle like a butterfly,
Can you tell me why?
Last, last goodbye - bitter as the silent cry,
Blowin' out the chance to do a second try,
Just another try...
Day by day, crossin' oceans of pain,
God I wish I could stop this old runaway train.
Far away like a shadow, a ghost,
Now the magic is gone and the spirit is lost...
Goin' down, you're goin' down all the way,
Down the needle park.
Goin' down, you're goin' down like a little child,
Lost in the dark...
Last, last goodbye - you'll take yours and I'll take mine.
Dance around candle like a butterfly,
Can you tell me why?
Last, last goodbye - bitter as the silent cry,
Blowin' out the chance to do a second try,
Just another try...
11. Land Of Broken Hearts
See a thousand bodies crackin'n'fallin' back,
Rows of loaded weapon ready to attack.
Sharp pain screams like hell in a victim's eyes.
Wanna say to everyone - promises were lies...
And here we go again, back to back,
Round and round,
And here we go again, back to back,
One shot, buddy, and you're hitting the ground...
Land of broken hearts.
One more shot and another friend's gone.
Land of broken hearts,
Pray to your god, cos' the killing's begun.
See a million faces - can you let it go?
Try to stop this bloody rain paintin' on the snow.
Blood, death - all around - livin' on the edge,
Look smashed flesh -
And bones prayin' for revenge.
12. Makin' A Mess
I was raised in a faraway land,
Tryin' to be number one.
Dad use to tell me -
Whatever you do, never let go 'til you're done.
I was fightin' as anyone,
I was twisted around.
I was broke just as anyone,
On the way - way down.
Never ever settle for less,
Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless.
Never ever settle for less,
Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground.
Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess...
Chip on my shoulder and look on my face,
Changin' my life on the fly.
Too late to make it and too late to stop,
Too late to figure out why.
I was fightin' as anyone,
I was twisted around.
I was broke just as anyone,
On the way - way down.
Never ever settle for less,
Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless.
Never ever settle for less,
Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground.
Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess...
The wind of sadness can shade the heart of gold.
I'm gonna leave it all behind.
I'm prayin' for a break - if I could face the world,
Without sadness in my mind...
Never ever settle for less,
Raise you hand it's to kill or to bless.
Never ever settle for less,
Who needs the crown when you're head on the ground.
Let me out, I'm just makin' a mess...
