1. Do You Like It
How many times have I died because of sorrows ?
So many times I've been scared about tomorrow
Never brew why, now I'm asking for a reason
How many tears, tell me, how many tears will fall ?
How many fools have been paying for the evil ?
How many "Gods" have been lying
to the people ?
Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason ?
How many tears will fall ?
When the sheets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your life is gettin' cold
Do you like it like that ?
How many lies can you tell to hide an error ?
How many smiles can you practice in your mirror ?
Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason ?
How many tears, tell me, how many tears will fall ?
How many men have been trusted out of season ?
How many promises broken without reason ?
Where are you now and what about tomorrow ?
How many tears will fall ?
When the sheets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your life is gettin' cold
Do you like it like that ?
2. Big Shot
You know you're never gonna be a friend of mine
communication on your level's a waste of time
I can see you're only good for nothing
look around you're out of control
Big Shot, walking on the water
gotta prove the world so wrong
big shot, shining like no other
gotta show the world you're here to stay
king of the day
you can try but you won't see through his lies
with just a word you can cut him down to size
I can see you're only good for nothing
look around you?re out of control
Big Shot, walking on the water
gotta prove the world so wrong
big shot, shining like no other
gotta show the world you're here to stay
king of the day
Big Shot, walking on the water
gotta prove the world so wrong
big shot, shining like no other
gotta show the world that you're strong
Big Shot, walking on the water
gotta prove the world so wrong
big shot, shining like no other
gotta show the world that you're strong
Big Shot, walking on the water
gotta prove the world so wrong
big shot, shining like no other
gotta show the world you're here to stay
you fake, you cheat, you lier !!!
3. Welcome The Night
You're a dream light years ago
Of a world dreams are like I did not know
I did not know
You're a queen scared of your might
Like a shades dying away without light
You fear the night
I know how temperatures rise
I'll heat you out of ice
I know we'll party tonight
So come on baby, do it right
I lift up your disguise
I've known you lightyears ago
Welcome to the nightlife show
Dance on, on through the night
Never don't forget the light
Don't forget the light
Welcome the night
Welcome the night
We're in love
Welcome the night
Welcome the night
We're in love
I don't need to keep up the ball
You are thawed out for all
I did make your temperature rise
It burns baby through your eyes
I feel your skin next to mine
You're tasting hot and fine
I know we're hot to the core
Wild dancing on the floor
Dance on, on through the night
Never don't forget the light
Don't forget the light
Welcome the night
Welcome the night
We're in love
Welcome the night
Welcome the night
We're in love
4. Way Down
there's an old man on a high chair
in the name of Jesus Christ
keep on preachin' that religion
though the past has often lied
sold his faith but could not face anyone
sold us hope but couldn't change what's been done
way down, way down deep in his eyes
how long, how long can he conceal the lies?
flew his jet to De Janeiro
to deliver peace of mind
kneels to kiss the burnin' pavement
all his hypocrites behind
tries to fake his way as God's only son
full of shit! you just can't fool everyone
way down, way down deep in his eyes
how long, how long can he conceal the lies?
tries to fake his way as God's only son
full of shit! you just can't fool everyone
way down, way down deep in his eyes
how long, how long can he conceal the lies?
way down, way down
5. Yesterdays
One man sits with his head hung low
Nowhere to run, got no place to go
There was a time when his town held homes
Now it's trash and broken homes
Every day, haulin' off the dead
So many scenes flashin' through his head
A little kid had to ask me "why"
Should I laugh? Maybe I'll just cry
So many folks tune in the living hell
They wanna know where the bombs just fell
Your TV screens show them crashing down
Can you see the lights? Can you hear the sound?
Guess the times have got the best of me
What the hell is this supposed to prove
they don't want to feel this misery
Hear 'em screaming and they dare not move
Guess the times have got the best of me
Has there got to be a single bullet
Put it right up to my head
Half a chance you know that I would use it
Guess the times have got the best of me
What the hell is this supposed to prove
they don't want to feel this misery
Hear 'em screaming and they dare not move
Guess the times have got the best of me
Has there got to be a single bullet
They don't want to fell this misery
Remember yesterday, oh yesterday
One man sits with his cigarettes
Drinks his gin like his own regrets
6. Anger
Ask me something i don't know
help to make me whole
give the one thing that i need
cause i need to gain control
in don't know but i've been told
something's on your mind
i won't criticize if you tell me the deal
but there's a monkey on your back
and it's sucking out your pride
cause I feel your anger
i can sense your hate is working overdrive
yeah i feel your anger
can't you realize it's eating you alive
hit the breaks, yeah you're much too fast
the hatred takes it's toll
maybe what you need is a smack th the head
but there's a monkey on your back
and it's sucking out your pride
cause I feel your anger
i can sense your hate is working overdrive
yeah i feel your anger

7. Change
you can take my soul
and you can rape my mind
play the starring role
so thick with fright
you can smash it all
for your own delight
and you can sell it all
for a ticket out of here
you need change
in your life
let the game begin
for this blatent sin
money talks for sure
in a world so poor
you need change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they wanna...
you can change your rhyme
so it flows with mine
broken thought's your crime
dream away, dream away
you could steal a gun
maybe shot someone
broken thought's your crime
yes, i hate to see you smile
you need change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they want to slice all your pride
but you are ready for this crime
you need change
you need change in your life
you need change
you need change in your life
you could steal a gun
maybe shot someone
broken thought's your crime
yes, i hate to see you smile

but you are ready for this crime
change
in your life, in your life
you need change
but, they want to get you everything that you need
and they want to CHANGE you!!
8. Diggin' Through The Past
expectation has become your plight
a loosing battle that you're not
prepared to fight
Infatuated in what lies ahead
convinced the future is hanging by a thread
you wonder why time passes by
(But) you never got a chance to fly
it's just another story told
a fear of growing old...
recolation, digging through the past
it give you comfort and you wish that it could last
so now you question how to coincide
the hard-earned wisdom with the carefree inner child
you wonder why time passes by
(But) you never got a chance to fly
it's just another story told
a fear of growing old...
you wonder why time passes by
(But) you never got a chance to fly
it's just another story told
a fear of growing old...
you tried to get the best of both worlds
you tried to have it all
you never had the feeling you'd be
heading for a fall
cantcha see your bridges burning
the point of no return
there ain't no way to prophecise
something you should learn
you wonder why time passes by
(But) you never got a chance to fly
it's just another story told
a fear of growing old...
you wonder why time passes by
(But) you never got a chance to fly
it's just another story told
a fear of growing old...!
9. Only The Good
Why am I so frustrated?
Do we live such fragile lives?
It seems I'm only waiting
For my soul to breath again
It's been so long since I felt this cold
24 years in the making
it makes no sense to suffer
or to find a remedy
only the good die young
only the good die young
blinded by my anger, I've been stolen by my pain
to justify the reasons and to justify what's been
I wondered now live I've wondered then
A feeling I've been cheated
So then I feel my soul cry out
Should I find a remedy?
only the good die young
only the good die young
calling out for a life
calling out for a better day
calling out for a celebration
everything seems good
10. Light Of Day
dangerous feelings flowing through his veins
the picture's getting clearer
the truth starts to stain
no more living for nothing
you break your back just to get through the day
the time has come for him to face the day
darkness hides away fear
lick the wound and pray
too many days running naked
for all mankind
into the light of day
into the light of day
patience always leaves him so uptight
soon the master speaks
his voice strong with delight
no more living for nothing
his pain is still digging away
reaching out he tries to change the game
into the light of day
into the light of day
something came into his life
and told him they were wrong
never trust the higher paid
cause they?re the worst of all
day and night they move so slow
the end is what i fear
hate is just another pain
and pain's a friend of mine
get him something, he's lonely
screaming voices they pray
he sees the light of the lonely
for all mankind
into the light of day
into the light of day
11. Talk To The Moon
I would never leave you
Any night, any day
I would never tease you
As you - heartless - do to me
I will always love you
Till the end of my days
I would like to own you
But you're turning away
Could it be you're blind?
Could it be you'll run away, baby?
Could it be my point of view?
If you talk to the moon
You'd better let me know soon
If you talk to the moon
Don't you tell me no lies
When I look in your eyes
If you talk to the moon
Anywhere you go to
I would want to be your guide
Anywhere you come from
I'd be standing at your side
I would like to lead you
If you can't find the way
Couldn't be without you
But you're turning away
Could it be you're blind?
Could it be you'll run away, baby?
Could it be my point of view?
If you talk to the moon
You'd better let me know soon
If you talk to the moon
Don't you tell me no lies
When I look in your eyes
If you talk to the moon
Oh, can't you see me crying?
I'm crying for you
If you talk to the moon
You'd better let me know soon
If you talk to the moon
Don't you tell me no lies
When I look in your eyes
If you talk to the moon
12. Until I Wake
i know another wrong won't make it right
i know another drink won't keep my senses clean
put a gun up to my head, might stop me for a while
i know another shot could get me through the night
but i feel my anger, and i'm so unstable
and i want to hold back, but i'm just not able
so i found redemption in a long white bottle
could it be i'm desperate? when it keeps me calm...
until I wake
i need another way to get me loose
i need another way to let my thoughts go free
cantcha understand that i'm a complicated man ?
i need another shot before i tie my noose
but i feel my anger, and i'm so unstable
and i want to hold back, but i'm just not able
so i found redemption in a long white bottle
could it be i'm desperate? when it keeps me calm...
Until I wake, until i wake
hey yeah.... it's my mind, yeah... it's my way, yeah
and it comforts me, yes it comforts me
But i never - felt at ease
and i'm on my - bended knees
and nothing can - stop me now
cause i'm loaded...
could i learn my lesson? cantcha feel my anger
break me, can't make me,
believe me, yeah !!!
But I feel my anger, but i feel my anger
but i feel my anger, i feel so alone...
but i feel my anger, and i'm so unstable
and i want to hold back, but i'm just not able
so i found redemption in a long white bottle
could it be i'm desperate? when it keeps me calm...
Until I wake, until i wake...
13. Better Days
I looked through a window
just to let my mind flow
then i saw a friend who
was looking for a friend too
spoke of her father
said he'll be leaving us
she'll be so lonely
and i want to understand
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
got to be patient
i always told her
somedays are diamond
ooh, the words that i sold her
she wants to be happy
she can't find a remedy
her obligations
will never let her fly away
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
Better Days
So i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
there'll be better days
gonna find you a better day
then i'll try to convince her
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
there'll be better days
gonna find you a better day
Better days...
she wants to be happy
She can't find a remedy
spoke of her father
she wants to be happy
so maybe she can fly away
to a better day, a better day...
14. Keep Your Eye On The Twisted
turn on the tube, what do I see?
a bunch of hateful people talking to me
the crap they say's been heard before
and that's what started up the 2nd World War!
so many people see what's going on
heads should be lifted
keep your eyes on the twisted
we've seen it all before
little minds can't be shifted
watch out they're back for more
they call it pride to wave the flag
shaving the hair off of their brainless heads
I think the world has seen enough
there's too much talking now it's time to get tough
too many people see what's going on
heads should be lifted
keep your eyes on the twisted
we've seen it all before
little minds can't be shifted
watch out they're back for more
hey twisted - what's in your head - so twisted
hey twisted - go clear your mind - you're misled
steps should be taken to stop what they're makin
heads should be lifted... to see what's going on
they spread their mental disease
ignorance needs a leader to make their mass increase
so keep your eyes on the twisted..

Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason ?
How many tears will fall ?
When the sheets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your life is gettin' cold
Do you like it like that ?
How many lies can you tell to hide an error ?
How many smiles can you practice in your mirror ?
Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason ?
How many tears, tell me, how many tears will fall ?
How many men have been trusted out of season ?
How many promises broken without reason ?
Where are you now and what about tomorrow ?
How many tears will fall ?

When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that ?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that ?

could it be i'm desperate? when it keeps me calm...
Until I wake, until i wake
hey yeah.... it's my mind, yeah... it's my way, yeah
and it comforts me, yes it comforts me
But i never - felt at ease
and i'm on my - bended knees
and nothing can - stop me now
cause i'm loaded...
could i learn my lesson? cantcha feel my anger
break me, can't make me,
believe me, yeah !!!
But I feel my anger, but i feel my anger
but i feel my anger, i feel so alone...
but i feel my anger, and i'm so unstable
and i want to hold back, but i'm just not able
so i found redemption in a long white bottle
could it be i'm desperate? when it keeps me calm...
Until I wake, until i wake...
13. Better Days
I looked through a window
just to let my mind flow
then i saw a friend who
was looking for a friend too
spoke of her father
said he'll be leaving us
she'll be so lonely
and i want to understand
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
got to be patient
i always told her
somedays are diamond
ooh, the words that i sold her
she wants to be happy
she can't find a remedy
her obligations
will never let her fly away
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
Better Days
So i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
there'll be better days
gonna find you a better day
then i'll try to convince her
then i'll try to convince her
there'll be better days
there'll be better days
gonna find you a better day
Better days...
she wants to be happy
She can't find a remedy
spoke of her father
she wants to be happy
so maybe she can fly away
to a better day, a better day...
14. Keep Your Eye On The Twisted
turn on the tube, what do I see?
a bunch of hateful people talking to me
the crap they say's been heard before
and that's what started up the 2nd World War!
so many people see what's going on
heads should be lifted
keep your eyes on the twisted
we've seen it all before
little minds can't be shifted
watch out they're back for more
they call it pride to wave the flag
shaving the hair off of their brainless heads
I think the world has seen enough
there's too much talking now it's time to get tough
too many people see what's going on
heads should be lifted
keep your eyes on the twisted
we've seen it all before
little minds can't be shifted
watch out they're back for more
hey twisted - what's in your head - so twisted
hey twisted - go clear your mind - you're misled
steps should be taken to stop what they're makin
heads should be lifted... to see what's going on
they spread their mental disease
ignorance needs a leader to make their mass increase
so keep your eyes on the twisted..
