1. Don't Look Back
Sometimes I remember my life
The wheels been spinning so long
So many years have passed me by
And the feelings are still running oh so strong
Now something new is here
I'm gonna fly and spread my wings
And still the power, goes, on and on
Don't look back- Don't look back
Don't you ever, now or never, look back
Don't look back- Don't look back
Don't you ever- never look back
Day after day, night after night
Climbing into a new day
And now I think I've found my sight
To go on and never turn away
Now something new...
Don't look back- Don't look back
Don't you ever, now or never, look back
Don't look back- Don't look back
now or never- Don't you ever look back
SOLO
I'm gonna fly and spread my wings
cause still the power goes on and on
Don't look back...
2. Break the Rules
Everything is wrong, yet they all deny it
But the time will come, when they can't hide it
Somebody says hey man- what's up with you
I say "just make way" cause I'm sick of you
Sick 'n tired of no good two faced liars
Buck here- buck there, that's their sole desire
Leaders always put your life in fear
I don't wanna see the world disappear
You got to burn it up- burn it up tonight
Cause the time has come for us- to put it right
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules- break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
No good thinking you don't have the power
Cause it's coming soon it's gonna be our finest hour
All I do is smile because I've been thru this before
I know just how to play this game- I'm kicking down your door
You got to burn it up- burn it up tonight...
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules- break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
You gotta break the rules, so keep the aces high
Break the rules- break the rules
Burn 'em down with fire
SOLO
You gotta break the rules...
3. We're History
You look to me for some outstanding meaning
You got the devil in your eyes and nothing in your soul
If you think I'm gonna sell myself, then you must be dreaming
There's no way, I'm gonna fall into your hole
You never seem to help me when I'm bleeding
You gotta knife for a tongue and you're tearing at my heart
I thought you were a friend, but in truth you never liked me
You lied and cheated us from the start
You are wrong, love doesn't last forever
You're nothing new there is no mystery
Now you're gone you thought you were so clever
You and me are now history, we're history...
SOLO
I don't like your face
I don't like your eyes
I don't like your lips, I hate your lies
This time's the last time it's goodbye time
You are wrong, love doesn't last forever
You're nothing new there is no mystery
Now you're gone you thought you were so clever
You and me are now history, we're history...
We're history, we're history
I don't need you and I don't care
We're history, we're history...
4. Painted Love
She's been around, knows how to make you think
You're in a world of innocence
She'll make you moan- make you moan and groan
Then spit you out and eat your bones
She sits around and thinks about those lies
It really makes her wonder
Chasing history- her world of ecstasy
A life of rape and plunder
Welcome to the rooms of your desire
Painted Love- Painted Love
Take a ride and explore inside
Painted Love- Painted Love
She knows how to make you scream and shout
You know she loves to get it out
The fascination of a fuckin' lie
It's just a case of do or die
She sits around and thinks...
Welcome to the rooms of your desire
Painted Love- Painted Love
Reaching out- breaking out
Painted Love- Painted Love
Take a ride, explore inside
Painted Love- Painted Love
Reaching out- breaking out
Painted Love- Painted Love
SOLO
She sits around and thinks...
Welcome to the rooms....
5. Mean Machine
The horror of a mad dog
Is chilling my blood in my brains
The lights disappearing
The cloud getting pregnant with rain
There's a rumor going round that
The master of darkness will come
They say he'll come from the sky
And there's nothing we can do
There'll be no place to hide
He's coming for me- he's coming for you!
Somewhere in time
Where creatures of the night never sleep
Lying and waiting, growing stronger
Planning our final defeat
They say he'll come from the sky...
Mean Machine
Comes from the sky
Stake your claims if you want to survive
Mean Machine
Comes from the sky
Don't try to run if you don't want to die
Mean machine
Comes from the sky
Stake your claims if you want to survive
SOLO
Mean Machine
Comes from the sky...
6. Dirty Boys
Bad boys on the run tonight
There's streaming energy
The future holds retreat or victory
Strollin' through the neon light
You get no charity
Looking for a fight- out on the run
They're never gonna win
Unless the system is to burn
They're tearing our world apart
Because, they never wanna learn
Dirty boys always on the run
Until six o'clock in the morning
Dirty boys always having fun
Never get them out of my mind
Windows closed and doorways shut
There's trouble in the streets
Another girl gets crazy from the heat
Heavy current loads the air
Headgames all around
Tidal waves of lust and moaning sounds
There never gonna win...
Dirty boys always on the run
Until six o'clock in the morning
Dirty boys always having fun
Never get them out of my mind
Dirty boys always on the run
Never get them out of my mind
SOLO
They're tearing our world apart
Because they never wanna learn
Bad boys on the run tonight
Burning up the streets
The future holds retreat or victory
Heavy current loads the air- you get no charity
They're looking for a fight, this ain't no place to be
Dirty Boys...
7. Streets on Fire
Standin' in the night, I don't know just somewhere
And I'm feeling cold inside about what I see
Give 'em all guns, there's nothin' left- for losers
Time is running out so secretly
This ain't no paradise
The nightmare's on it's way
Insanity appears- in their eyes
Streets on fire- ready or not
Will the goodtimes return- no way!
Streets on fire- ready or not
Will we ever learn- no way!
Echoing sounds of thunder make me shiver
Battlefields turn to wasteland- no one wins
The ghost of terror creeping, through the cities
And someone says it's a holy war
This ain't no paradise...
Streets on fire- ready or not...
SOLO
Humans will always fight
The same shit everywhere
East or west, the same desires
Will always haunt the earth
SOLO
Streets on fire- ready or not...
8. Lost Passion
Welcome hello, please take your seat
We leave now for a trip- in hell
Now we can start especially for you- join us now!
Shattered dreams, in shattered faces
Crawling off the stage
Forgotten heroes lost their passion, many years ago
Time after time in your life
You're burning your world of illusions
Tearing your conscience apart
Lost Passion
Now you can see, you can see what it means
To come to a world of lies, all such lies
Think about your destiny- the love you found
Was it just a dream, just a dream
Shattered dreams, in shattered faces...
Time after time in your life
You're burning your world of illusions
Tearing your conscience apart
Lost Passion- Lost Passion
Time after time in your life
You're burning your world of illusions
Tearing your conscience apart
Lost Passion- Lost Passion- Lost Passion
SOLO
Time after time in your life...
9. Sweet Little Child
Darkness- and yet another day slips away
So lonely- life's just like an empty room
Where is the answer, when our love was so sweet
I wish I could hold you tonight
But we only came close in my dreams
Sweet little child
Give me your answer
Some broken hearts
They'd die for that answer
To try to get back, back to the past to break free
Tell me how can I find your sunshine again
Truth is well- you know that better than me
I wish I could hold you tonight
But we only came close in my dreams
Sweet little child
Give me your answer
Some broken hearts
They'd die for that answer
To try to get back, back to the past to break free,
Sweet little child
Give me your answer
Some broken hearts
They'd die for that answer
To try to get back, back to the past to break free
SOLO
You know some broken hearts, would die for that answer
Sweet little child
Give me your answer
10. Catch My Fall
I wake up feeling lost without you
And the pain reminds me that I'm all alone
Those dreams we had, are now a nightmare
I feel just like a dog without a bone
Now is now and then was then
But I can't get used to being without you
It's a brand-new start and now I know that I should've
But I never ever thought I'd miss your eyes
"say" here we go again
All I need is you tonight
Why don't you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall
I'd die for you over and over again
But I guess you've heard it all before
You say times have changed, changed your ways
But your absence makes me need you more and more
It's a brand-new start and now I know that I should've
Loved you then...
All I need is you tonight
Why don't you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall
All I need is you tonight
Why don't you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall- that's all
SOLO
All I need is you tonight...
11. Still in Love With You
