2. Done Bleeding
You came to me in my disbelief
Suspicions running wild
Confuse me
Too good to be true
Angel soaring free
My trust was broke
When the devil used me
My battered heart
Was torn and ripped apart
Transgression into lies and treason
Well, I’m done bleeding, or so they say
I won’t get in line to get thrown away
And I‘m done bleeding, or so I’m told
Suck the blood straight from the stone
Stayed stinking drunk
Frat house Magna Cum Laude Punk
Toy for the mind anything that soothes me
Taste my disease
I’m a masochist to please
My love for you
Drove me to rack and ruin
So if I seem uptight
Scarred from the switchblade knife
Scarred for life when the cut’s done healing
Well, I’m done bleeding, or so they say
I won’t get in line to get thrown away
And I‘m done bleeding, or so I’m told
Suck the blood straight from the stone
Come tap the vein
My heart remains the same
Keep beating
Done bleeding
Well, I’m done bleeding, or so they say
I won’t get in line to get thrown away
And I‘m done feeling times are tough
Strike me down, I’ll get right back up at you
Straight from the stone
Straight out, straight out, straight out
Done bleeding
Done bleeding
Done bleeding
Done bleeding
3. Superjerk, Superstar, Supertears
Anyone, almost everyone doesn’t like to be alone
There’s no match no the road and the crowd is going home
All along I’ve been knocking off my friends one by one
And now I see I’m not the only, only, only one
Does it help you to cry when you’re alone?
Is it worth is?
Do you even like home?
Superjerk, Superstar, Supertears stream down his face
Vagrant stud, vagrant stud
All along I’ve been knocking off my friends one by one
And now I see I’m not the only, only, only one
Does it help you to cry when you’re alone?
Is it worth is?
Do you even like home?
Superjerk, Superstar, Supertears stream down his face
4. Blasphemer
Blasphemer, you’re not too blessed
You’re a mystery mess
Blasphemer
You’ve come untied
You’ve come undressed
Blasphemer
Close your eyes and the world succumbs
Cherry bide, lovely laser lungs
Blasphemer
The throne by default
Certainly’s not my fault
Blasphemer
Blasphemer, you know your place
Turn off your face
Blasphemer
Bind my limbs but untie the truth
Old or young, we’re the same as you
Basphemer
You’re not too blessed
You’re a mystery mess
You’ve come untied
You’ve come undressed
You know your place
Turn off your face
5. Counterpunch
I wanna kiss you, wanna kill you
Fill you
You wanna fight me, wanna like me
Bite me,
You wanna give it up
I’ll never give it up
I wanna forget it but my mind won’t let it go
We are seduced and then forgotten
By the fist of ill-begotten gains
When you hit the wall
Scale the heights and take the fall
When nothing’s all there is
You’ve hit the skids.
First you date me, then forsake me
Rape me
Top of the mountain, then we
Drown in the fountain
Blood brothers. Godfathers. Sweet sisters
Blah blah blah
Best of friends
Stabbed each other in the end
You’re so sweet
Sweet enough to smack
Or maybe we’re just tough nuts to crack
When you hit the wall
Scale the heights and take the fall
When nothing’s all there is
You’ve hit the skids.
6. Slave To The Grind (Live)
“Tokyo, would you please welcome USA’s original Youth Gone Wild: Sebastian Bach and His Friends”
You got me forced to crack my lids in two
I'm still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that leads the blind
I'm just another gear in the assembly line - oh no
The noose gets tighter around my throat
But I ain't at the end of my rope
Won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain't even close
There's no need to waste your prayers on me
You better mark my words 'cause I'm history
Yes indeed
You might beg for mercy to get by
But I'd rather tear this thorn from my side
Won't be the one left behind
Can't be a king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Swallow their daggers by turning their trick
Tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I'm sick of the jive, talk verbal insecticide
TOKYO!
Swallowed their daggers by turning their trick
Tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I'm sick of the jive, you talk verbal insecticide
I won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be a king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Tokyo!
Tokyo!
7. Frozen (Live)
This is called ”Frozen”
Come on!
As I stare into the fire
All my thoughts go up in flames
Here I stare into the fire
I'll be waiting on the rain
The box I keep myself in, closes out my air
So I build a fire, so I can sit and stare
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
As I stare into Tokyo
My eyes drying from the cold
As I stare into the weather
I sense my thoughts growing old
I listen to the prophets predict the stem of tides
I stare into the weather that's keeping me inside
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Tokyo
Give me some lights, Tokyo
Give me some fucking lights
Can you hear the bass guitar?
Can you feel the bass guitar?
Then Larry, get over here, give them some bass!
As I stare into the fire
Will the prophets change my mind
While I stare into the fire
All the colors treat me kind
I'll dust away the fallings the winter leaves for me
I'll stare into the fire and set tomorrow free
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be I'm frozen
Can it be that I’m frozen
Frozen
8. 18 & Life (Live)
If you know the words to this; please sing along
You guys know this song, Tokyo?
Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone
Just barely got out of school, came from the edge of town
Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down
He had no money, ooh no good at home
He walked the streets a soldier and he fought the world alone
Now it's
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor running but it never kept him clean
They say he loved adventure, "Ricky's the wild one"
He married trouble, had a courtship with a gun
Bang, bang shoot 'em up, the party never ends
You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and a life to go
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and life to go
"Accidents will happen" they all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shot to the wind, that child blew a child away
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it's
18 and a life to go
18 and life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time, it's
18 and life to go
9. Beat Yourself Blind (Live)
BEAT YOURSELF BLIND
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,het, two, three, dig it!
Tokyo
Give me a minute 'cause I'm wrapped in superstition
Pour me a chemical to take away the edge
Don't make up anything that's breaking all your fingers
Just slapped around a bit of what it takes to pledge
Carry out another stone as a slave
Ask general know-it-all "Who's juggling the earth?"
Tease all the natives that will walk across your grave
And shove aside your nation all for what it's worth
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Hey, hey, hey, two, three, dig it!
An open eyes and a closed mind
Look at the suit in suspended animation
A faded outline that used to be a man
A piece of paper that's fallen out a window
Has got a better chance to know where it landS
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
To bleed in vain, to bleed in vain
Under my eyes are painted skies
Larry, get up there, man!
Down at the boneyard, they're diggin' up the relics
Handfuls of parasites thrown into the machine
I got the phone call, they're tearin' down the mission
The zombies had a ball, but don't know what it means
They don’t know what it means
They don’t know what it means, no, no
They don’t know, no, no, no
¨
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Come on, Tokyo
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Yeah, Tokyo, you having fun tonight?
10. Riot Act (Live)
I never wanted to be President
'Cause it's nothin' but an ego trip, yeah
I didn't want your education
'Cause it's nothin' but a pile of shit
You bore me to death, so shut up for God's sake
Stop readin' me the riot act
While my brains are still intact
You say it's raining, but you're pissin' down my back
So stop readin' me the riot act
I couldn't listen to a word you said
This goin' nowhere thing is wearin' fuckin’ thin
When your sex, your drugs, and your valid vic'
Is just the spit I wipe off my chin
I'd rather go nowhere than not know where it's at
Stop readin' me the riot act
While my brains are still intact
You say it's raining, but you're pissin' down my back
So stop readin' me the riot act
Oh, my god
I never wanted to be President
'Cause it's nothin' but an ego trip
I didn't want your education
'Cause it's nothin' but a pile of shit
You bore me to death, so shut up for God's sake
Stop readin' me the riot act
While my brains are still intact
You say it's raining, but you're pissin' down my back
So stop readin' me
Stop readin' me the riot act
While my brains are still intact
You say it's raining, but you're pissin' down my back
So stop readin' me the riot act
The riot act
The riot act
The riot act
11. Mudkicker (Live)
Mudkicker!
We stand accused but you lie
Varicose-veined finger
Prejudiced evil mind
The young get stronger
Free living fast
But you're a sapsucker
Ain't gonna last
Your twisted mouths feed the minds of babes
Taught from birth it's crime that pays
One man's fortune is another man's pain
But that's how you play the game
I ain't the child of your disgrace
Mudkickin' into my face
I've healed the wounds, been crucified
Mudkicker kick
All rise, 'cause here comes the boss
He's your big brother, the silver tongue's doublecross
His collar starched white, big black briefcase held tight
It holds the power to your demise
The corporation blue sedan
Behind the wheel Mr. Business-man
Thinks he's got the upper hand
But he misunderstands
I ain't the child of your disgrace
Mudkick into my face
Healed the wounds, been crucified
Mudkicker kick
I ain't the child of your disgrace
Mudkicker into my face
I've healed the wounds, been crucified
Mudkicker kick
Fuckin’ Toky, you rock an’ roll!
Your prestige is clear as day
But I can scrape the sewer bilge and see the same
The young get stronger, free living fast
You're a sapsucker, ain't gonna last, no
I ain't the child of your disgrace
You're mudkickin' into my face
I've healed the wounds, I been crucified
Mudkicker kick
I ain't the child of your disgrace
Mudkicker into my face
I've healed the wounds, been crucified
Mudkicker kick
Mudkicker kick, kickin' me down
Mudkicker kickin' me all around
Mudkicker kick, kickin' me down
Mudkicker
Mudkicker kick, kickin' me down
Mudkicker kickin' me all around
Mudkicker kick, kickin' me down
Mudkicker kick
I said mudkicker, I said mud
We don't fuck around, no
Gimme some lights out Tokyo, right here
Hello, hello, hello
You guys are screaming so loud, you’re gonna be coming through every fucking stereo system speaker on the planet Earth!
12. In A Darkened Room (Live)
This is song called “In A Darkened Room”
Let me see your hands out here, Tokyo
In a darkened room
Beyond the reach of God's faith
Lies the wounded, the shattered remains of love betrayed
And the innocence of a child is bought and sold
In the name of the damned
The rage of the angels left silent and cold
Forgive me please for I know not what I do
How can I keep inside the hurt I know is true
Tell me when the kiss of love becomes a lie
That bears the scar of sin too deep
To hide behind this fear of running unto you
Please let there be light
In a darkened room
All the precious times have been put to rest again
And the smile of the dawn
Brings tainted lust singing my requiem
Can I face the day when I'm tortured in my trust
And watch it crystallize
While my salvation crumples to dust
Why can't I steer the ship before it hits the storm
I've fallen to the sea but still I swim for shore
Tell me when the kiss of love becomes a lie
That bears the scar of sin too deep
To hide behind this fear of running unto you
Please let there be...
Please....please....please let there be light
In a darkened room
13. Monkey Business/Godzilla (Live)
14. The Most Powerful Man In The World (Live)
If I could love you all
I would be the most powerful man in the world
And if I could conquer hate
Love would be my fate
For sure
’Cause I’ve danced with clowns
And have hugged fools
Where love’s concerned
There are no rules
If I could burn my past
With a match
I easily would
Then to begin again
I would be the most powerful man in the world
’Cause I’ve danced with clowns
And have hugged fools
If I could love you all
I would be the most powerful man in the world
15. I Remember You (Live)
You remember me, Japan?
Because I remember you, baby!
Sing with me one time
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
And when you needed me I came through
I paint a picture of the days gone by
When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew that you were there for me
Time after time you were there for me
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
We spend the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after would be like this
You said I love you babe”, whitout a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made......
I swear you'll never be lonely
Mr Richie Scarlet on the lead guitar, right here
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Hey Tokyo, I love you
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
Sebastian Bach
