He travels through the skies
With technicolor lights
Terminating life in air
Traffic regulation
That snatch you against the pipe
A hundred others watch his rage
Well it's a fight
* Sign of the times
Or so we're told
Let it unwind
Programming minds
He's ruling with false control
Digital Dictator
He's ruling with false control
Round and round we go
The cycle never ends
One or two at a time
Come closer ......
Call to apart
The circuit's on the blink
Going through the night
He'll never leave he's weak
(* Repeat)
Just the most incredible
He's always played to win
.........Training on destruction
He'd blow his men
Ultimate shooter
Perfection in sight
Master in affliction with terror
In the sky
(* Repeat)
Digital Dictator
Digital Dictator
3. Minute to Kill
Oh oh oh yeah
Why don't you go out your back door
It's your only chance to have
Run your life alone
As fast as you can
The road to the top
Is never what exsists
A finger from the trigger
Of the age of suspense
* Time runs out
Take to the sky
Don't look back
Run for your life
To the edge
Now is your chance don't sit still
Minute to kill
Time's on your side If you try
Out of our windows
We'll fight to the end
Let 'em grin
Corporate masturbation explodes in a jet
Who tossed the line
Is that the final thread
Watch it rule the world
No matter who's ahead
(* Repeat)
With all of them true
In our lights
Time's on your side if you will
Minute to kill
Time's on your side if you strife
Out of my way, now
Up to me to victory
You'll I never get compressed
Together we'll exterminate
The challenge of your best
I once watches you fight
You get no second chance
So put up or shut up or die
(* Repeat)
All of them true
In our lights
Time's on your side if you will
Minute to kill
Time's on your side if you strife
You took it to town
Took it to doubt
We're sorry your minute to kill
4. Towns on Fire
On the verge of a heatwave
Come on over to my house
We're gonna go out and play
We're gonna tear it all down
When we hit the strip tonight
Can you feel the power and the flashing lights
There's a voice that calls out to me
I can't hold back
Can't hold back anymore
* Towns on fire
Burning on the street with a heat of desire
Towns on fire
Spending time with the ladies of the metal
Towns on fire
This town's on fire
Towns on fire
Come on come on
Well my body's electric
Come out from the air
Can you taste of my frenzy
Can you tell where I'm game
Now I'm heading down that track
Midnight town and I won't turn back
There's a voice that calls out to me
I can't hold back
Can't hold back anymore
Anymore
(* Repeat)
The boys come out
We are playing asunder
Well, what's time is running
And I've got all day
With the stakes so high
I'm the best at the game
Now I'm heading down that track
Midnight town and I won't turn back
There's a voice that calls out to me
I can't hold back
Can't hold back anymore
Anymore
(* Repeat)
The boys come out
Town
This town's on fire
5. Lady Took A Chance
Alright
Oh, don't play with fire again
The pain becomes your only friend
You must see now a circle growing
Back to the point of soul determined
You take your chance when you play the game
Roll the dice 'cause you're allowed to win
Pick your number in back of the line
Check in the shorts for a holiday plan
Is to wear the shortest axe
You can do it again, yeah
* Well the lady took a chance
But there is no guarantees in romance
Although you may respect her
Your love will not protect her
The boys beat color others black and blue
Changes that you put me through
Know the hate all end up the same
The time has come to make me pray
You take your chance when you play the game
Roll the dice 'cause you're allowed to win
Pick your number in back of the line
Shark skin jacket with a tortoise in his pocket
She was never going anywhere
You ain't never coming back with her
(* Repeat)
The lady took a chance
And she lost lost lost lost lost
The lady took a chance
She really took a chance
The lady took a chance
She really took a chance
She lost
The lady took a chance
She really lost the fight
She stretched a little harder
Just to fleece her appetite
Yeah
The lady took a chance
She really took a chance
It all slipped away
In a voodoo dance
Tonight oh yeah
Ice cold day with sordid twitch
You can eat it on the run
Or you rub it on a stick tonight
6. Worlds and Machines
Everytime I turn around
Someone tries to bring me down
Spinning in a whirlpool
Competition over rules again
Intelligence and arrogance
Free the fire of righteousness
Attitude and sacrifice
Change inside ain't no time, wait
One more vulgar wrote the story
Stops to watch my heart
Catch me if you can
The power that's in front of me
The masters of technology
They fought them in a slaughterhouse
Is all we need to know
They cibilize antagonize
Good enough to satisfy
All the needs all the lusts
All the dough
Laugh of a line
Try to decide but we don't
The chips are down
But the prices are up
So we're told
It's the times that I feel
Like I'm losing all control
Back to the worlds and machines
Is where we go
That's the place where we go
Twisting and turning are dreams to the top
Pictures of change and it never stops
Back to the worlds and machines
Acting on the silver screen
Killers everywhere are seen
Going in the streets at night
Taking on the world tonight
Repression is a state of mind
That could explode at anytime
Systems kick in over ride
Look out, missiles fly
Try a why
Sign of the times
Where do we go from here
Future destroyed
No wonder we don't share
Will we live
Will we live to grow old
Back to worlds and machines
Is where we go
That's the place where we go
Back to the worlds and machines we go
Down through the back is where we know
Back to the worlds and machines
Go
That's the place where we go
Go
Twisting and turning are dreams to the top
Pictures of change and it never stops
Back to the worlds and machines
7. The Crest
Rising high in the burning sky
A kiss of death surrounds you
Black is the night
You're fade out of sight
That no one ever finds you
To live or die
Never touch the crest
All the poisoned minds
Live inside the crest
The guilty and crime
Assault has survived
But life is rotting low here
You'll see what I mean
If you follow the stream
The blessed is in control
To live or die
Never touch the crest
All the poisoned minds
Live inside the crest
The trip's our lives
But time's on your side
Beware and watch for the shadows
The lesson we learn
Don't make the wrong turn
We will go together
To live or die
Never touch the crest
All the poisoned minds
Live inside the crest
We will go together
We will go together
We will go together
We will go together
8. R.L.H.
Now we're in the barrows
Of rulers who have lived
Enjoyed they once had it
Made his amend
Now here tonight
You crossed to the edge
We'll never let you down
We'd rather drop dead
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Forces of the wicked
Travels to the end
Right up here on stage
Oh people on our heads
Just because my leather is black skintight
When we hit the stage we rock all night
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Fire and water begins to boil
Who awaits the potion
Of driving me closer to you
Closer to you
So when you're taking off
Back to reality
Tell me my friend
What is it that you see
The spice of this encounter
Cause the boys in the band
Apparently the truth
Is what they just can't stand
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
Rock like hell
9. Condemned
On a mountain road of stone
Preachers cry out all alone
Body in their blood runs thin
All the time he's cashing in
Long hours under the sun
Nothing left for anyone but him, oh no
Full power
Never enough
Sneak off
We're calling your bluff
Condemned forever
The quest to stay alive
Condemned forever
The one you have survived
Oh, the whole world laughs inside
All the country left to die
Men of the living dead
Don't believe a word he said
Long hours under the sun
Nothing left for anyone but him, oh no
Full power
Never enough
Stand up
And call your bluff
Condemned forever
The quest to stay alive
Condemned forever
The one who has survived
Condemned forever
Wandering through the nights
Condemned forever
Freedom is in sight
Yeah!
Even in all his feeling high
He makes his way
Wanted knight
He only wants to wind up free
Oh, to hell those miseries, yeah yeah!
Condemned forever
The quest to stay alive
Condemned forever
The one who has survived
Condemned forever
What do you do nights
Condemned forever
Freedom is in sight
10. Out of the Shadows
Out of the faceless shadows
Relentless changes in the night
Will it be alright, Oh
We're not alone
The shadow draws me home
The troubled times we undergo
Out of the shadows into the night
The seal has broken bearing your souls
No, no time to lose
The winds of change's upon us now
Sweat on your brow
No, no, you're not alone
We're riding wind or tides
Though time has come when choosing sides
The test of time
Sail on sail on
Out of the shadows into the night
The pages turn the story unfolds
Out of the shadows into the night
The meaning of sorrier times
Out of the shadows into the night
The pages turn the story unfolds
Out of the shadows into the night
The pages burn the story is told
Oh
