Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
You know you ain't going anywhere You spend all your time singing your blues You know you ain't going anywhere You've always been a good friend of mine Your heart it bids farewell The only time you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself Or is that what you're trying to do? Put up the fight you believe to be right And one day the sun will shine through You've always got something to hide Something you just can't tell The only time you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well, yeah You know what you're wishing for Love in a peaceful world Love in a peaceful world Love in a peaceful world, yeah You've always been a good friend of mine Your heart it bids farewell The only time you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well, yeah No, everybody has a dream, yeah Oh no, no, no, oooh I wish you well, yeah I know, know All you're looking for is love |

Heart beat is rapid
Your blood pumping faster Hands reach for the blade Touch her Feel her Your body it craves her She leads you to your grave She's an image all dressed all in white No, you know you want her now Casting a spell Her power on you You'd leave but you don't know how White Witch White Witch Poisoning you White Witch White Witch Coming for you White Witch White Witch Taking your souls White Witch White Witch Taking control Wrapped and enraging I use to maintain it Do you want some more? Give her your money Sell her your soul The deadliest of whores Wicked white demon Is staring at you Controlling all that you say and you do Sweating intensely The music's much loader On the glass is a poison powder White Witch White Witch Poisoning you White Witch White Witch Coming for you White Witch White Witch Taking your souls White Witch White Witch Taking control White Witch White Witch Poisoning you White Witch White Witch Coming for you White Witch White Witch Taking your souls White Witch White Witch Taking control She is now your only master Your whole life's a complete disaster Don't you dare Let her in As your final chore White Witch White Witch Poisoning you White Witch White Witch Coming for you White Witch White Witch Taking your souls White Witch White Witch Taking control Taking my soul Taking control |

When The Crowds Are Gone
by Savatage I don't know where the years have gone Memories can only last so long Like faded photographs, forgotten songs And the things I never knew When the skin is thin, the heart shows through Please believe me what I tell you is true Where's the lights, turn 'em on again One more night to believe and then Another note for my requiem A memory to carry on The story's over when the crowds have gone All my friends have been crucified Made life a long suicide true Guess we never figured out the rules But I'm still alive, my fingers feel Gonna play on till the final reel's through And read the credits from a different view Where's the lights, turn 'em on again One more night to believe and then Another note for my requiem A memory to carry on The story's over when the crowds have gone When the crowds are gone When the crowds are gone And I'm all alone Playing the saddest song Now that the lights are gone Turn them on again One more time for me my friend Turn 'em on again I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time Till time wasted me Never wanted to go Always wanted to stay 'Cause the persons I am Are the parts that I play So I plot and I plan Hope and I scheme To the lure of a night Filled with unfinished dreams I'm holding on tight To a world gone astray As they charge me for years I can no longer pay Turn 'em on again (repeat) I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time Till time wasted me I Never wanted to go Always wanted to stay 'Cause the persons I am Are the parts that I play The parts I play And the light Turn then off my friend And the ghosts Well just let them in Cause in the dark It's easier to see |

The lights come on
The set is down The curtain's flown away To all you creatures of the night I say it's time we play We'll show you things That in your life You'd never dreamed you'd know So now before the ghosts arrive It's welcome to the show Minstrels, kings, explorers Fantasies on order Ghosts and dreams awakened Stories long forsaken The minstrel and the sorcerer Are switching their disguise The jester drinks and starts to think That he alone is wise The governor and journalist Exchange a judas kiss And now before the song is done The plot begins to twist Ghosts and lost explorers Fate with all her daughters Saints and hopeless sinners Wise men in their winters Know Welcome to the show Welcome to the show Welcome to the show Welcome to the show His life was nearly over As he stood upon the beach Thinking about death and the ocean While still safely out of reach And he held there in his hand A well worn hourglass And though the sand was still inside Soon this too would pass Then he knelt to touch the water Where the waves would gently fall Thinking here I touch the ocean And the ocean touches all For from a line of countless sailors He was the last man of his kind And the world had changed around him He had no mountains left to climb And his last name was Magellan A descendant of the same Or so he said in late night bars Though few believed his claim And so he now talked with the ocean As he had often done before But now the waves spoke back to him As he walked along the shore For eighty years plus seven He had been upon this earth And all of them but eight He'd spent on that ocean since his birth But he was not the only one Who walked along this coast There was a lady old and pale To some nearly a ghost She had once been a great beauty It was rumored in some bars When she'd left here many years before To become a movie star But every wish is not to be Ahh this in time she learned And when her final chance had passed Back here she had returned And everyday at six o'clock She came to a small cafe And had herself a glass of wine And then she'd walk away To others she was gray and old Not the beauty she'd been before But it did not matter what she was What mattered was what he saw And so for near three years now He'd watch her everyday And though they always were so close He felt so far away For he could never quite arrange The words inside his mind That he could say to make her stay And he was running out of time He could not find the words to say To such a work of dreams And so he watched her walk away And always stayed unseen |

The warrior stands alone Visions of the fighting past A thousands tales are told Immortal Let the battles of street life begin Don some leathers and chains They live their life And they feel their own pain The times that is chilling their bones And they can't get away Alone in the cold Watching night turn into day Armed to attack The soldiers react Kill or be killed Is the life they live Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world On the streets they are roaming the night Out to claim their domain One more Pointless battle With nothing to gain And life is a hell for them Living with the shadows of death Scratching and clawing Till no souls are left Armed to attack The soldiers react Kill or be killed Is the life they live Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world They call the streets of hell their home They're not alone A thousands tales are told The streets of hell their home Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world Warriors, Warriors Warriors of the world |

Chills rattle through my bones The way she looks it shocks me Standing at the door that leads below There's a light at the end of the hall Can I reach it before I fall She's unusual So unusual In a daze I turn to run A thousand steps to her arms Does she really want to touch me I see it in her eyes See it in her eyes No I follow through very slowly When I get there she's gone She's unusual So unusual I know some things can't be right Ghostly visions of delight She tells me of a better life The way she looks it blows my mind silhouette cast in time Temptress of the night is calling me Does she really want to touch me I can see it in her eyes Snakes of fire hypnotize her Seductress of lost lives There's a light at the end of the hall CAn I reach it before I fall She's unusual So unusual She's unusual So unusual |

Each man has a soul
That struggles to escape And in the shallows of his dreams We can often see its wake For we all have our secrets That we all keep deep inside Away from light, in darkest night Where it's always safe to hide Away from all that we should meet Less someone else should share That thing that hides inside our soul That we pray was never there And out upon that ocean A lifetime from the shore Miguel stood his night watch Recalling everything he saw For he was a deckhand Aboard the "maersk dubai" He had sailed her round the world From hamburg to sendai But this trip had been different More than any he had known For on board there was an evil And the evil had been shown For halfway through this voyage They had found two stowaways That the captain had thrown in the sea And left them to the waves And when he tried to close his eyes And pretend he did not know The evil did not go away But used the time to grow For later on that same trip They found a stowaway once again But the captain soon met this one too And brought him to the same cold end He wondered what that boy thought inside Before that final sleep When water was all that was around And his lungs had screamed breathe deep He wondered what went through his mind As he gasped for air And the last moment when he prayed for help To find nobody there He wondered to himself If he could have been the one To stand up at that moment And say this cannot be done To stand up to the captain And say this thing it cannot be But there is nothing closer to god on earth Than a captain on the sea And he was just a deckhand With no right to plead the case Of this stranger in their midst And so he kept his place And what is done is done And undone cannot be And so he pushed it from his mind And stared out across the sea |

In distant ages long ago Before the birth of Christ Lived a race trapped in soul Terror on the rise United beyond the storm They ruled the astral plane No one could stop them They wouldn't fall In a while they would soon reign A step beyond the grave Visions so insane They opened the gates of Hell Calling, Calling Unholy light is calling Faster, faster Prelude for disaster Get straight But no Here's your prize Oh yeah They're unholy Raging spirits kept from the light Enslaved in worlds of doom Marching armies to the darker side The devil's black platoon Torches raised no mercy Victory was theirs Such was life In the unholy years Step beyond the grave A vision so insane They opened the gates of Hell Calling, Calling The lonely night is calling Faster, faster Prelude for disaster Get straight But no Here's your prize Oh yeah The unholy Oh yeah They're unholy They're unholy No Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy |

Jesus
What's the reason For these scars that will never heal Hearts that no longer feel Eyes that can no longer see Jesus What's the reason For this child that will not survive With all her dreams inside Could she mean nothing to thee And jesus please tell me if you can recall Just where you were when this sparrow did fall Jesus What's the reason Every tear isn't weighed the same Could you have died in vain If we have short memories And jesus would you then come down from your cross Return every nail and say we are lost And in the dark we seek your silent company For each hope that arrives and fades from memory Still after all this time our loss you won't concede For in the dead of night the rumor is Your hands they still bleed Still bleed Still bleed Still bleed Jesus It would seem then That somehow you still trust You have more faith than us Perhaps that is how it should be |

I know you're all alone tonight
And I hear your cries From the world that lies Beyond these lives You've got dreams inside They cut I know Cut so deep but you never show That's the price you pay That's the price you pay Is your soul on the line my dear As you take your bows To a silent crowd That never hears Close your eyes for now And leave your rage Take my hand and walk the stage That's the price you pay That's the price you pay That's the price you pay That's the price you pay There's no need to worry Cause you have tomorrows Another phase of life has begun Am I getting through to you? Can your mind reach beyond tonight I believe your love for life Will never die So my child you ask What does this mean Cut the chains and chase the dream That's the price you pay That's the price you pay That's the price you pay That's the price you pay Ooh yeah That's the price you pay When you come here to play |

Standing alone by the edge of a river
He's traded his life for a glass full of tears The bargain was quick for one's life is less dearer When the sand's running out and the ending is near The ending is near The ending is near The ending is... The man climbed aboard and set sail for the ocean He put on the mast all the canvas she'd take Then laid himself down on the deck neath the tiller The ship was his coffin this moment his wake Runaway reasons Runaway seasons Time is a treason That I give back to you now The wind touched the sail and the ship moved the ocean The wind from the storm set the course she would take From a journey to nowhere towards a soul on the ocean From the wake of magellan to magellan's wake Runaway reasons Runaway seasons Everything in it Hours and minutes You take tomorrow Because it means nothing To me To me To ... In the dark he heard a whisper Asking him to understand In the desert look for water On the ocean look for land In the dark he heard a whisper Asking him to understand In the desert look for water On the ocean look for land And there in the waves Was a man in his grave That he saw in the night 'Tween the flashes of light And he Could not be there And all he had prayed Or had given away He now found to be wrong In the grip of the storm And he Could not be there Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more And all at once the heavens bled their fire The anchor broke the chains they flew away And suddenly the waves were reaching higher And in the dark I thought I heard them say Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more Everything I ever had for one more tomorrow Everything I ever had for just one more night And if this is not to be I pray could I borrow Just another final hour onto my life Did you ever really want to Did you ever really want to Lord, tell me how it will be Lord, tell me how it will be Standing once more by a boat on a river He pushes it off while he stays on the land And seeing the hourglass now so much clearer Which someone had refilled by hand And somewhere that boat's now adrift on the ocean The mast at full sail and there's no one on board The hourglass no longer sits by the ocean Only his footprints all alone on the shore And soon they're no more No more No more |

When in your life did you surrender
Late in the night do you remember What were the dreams that you betrayed then Would you go back if you could save them now Did you believe there was something more Waiting behind some forgotten door Or was that all long before You felt the pressure grow inside your brain Where every nerve is on fire You start to wonder if you're going insane It's not a fate you desired Time is running down Moments of reason that we hope to find Are we a thought somewhere in god's mind A work of art that he has never signed No Children and mirrors have no memory They reflect us for that is all they see They are the us that is still yet to be And so we carry on The clock is ticking and your growing afraid That the end will be violent You walk the edges all around your own grave And the gods they are silent Or can not be found Searching your mind for correspondence from Joseph and mary and their only son Is their silence something you have done No And in the end what have you defied To end up so nearly crucified Just let me know when you decide That all hope is gone Come and see him dying For it's really quite a show Walking on a wire Though he never seems to know Even when he's falling You can see a little smile Figures that he's flying Only for a little while The ground is rushing towards him But he never sees it there Lives his life in pieces Always taking every dare What will be the ending Well i'm sure that i don't know The ground is getting closer Come and see the show See the show See the show See the show |

Standing alone in a dream
Where nothing is real But oh how real it feels There were times I lost my way I was alone, lost in a haze Where are you now I'll find you somehow And do I stand alone Like a fool out in the rain Hanging on somehow To an ancient vow Where there's nothing left to gain And do you know How it feels inside To be all alone A fool and his pride Scars are the wounds that we show Time only heals If you're letting go Many right I'd lay awake Tossing and turning till daybreak Where are you now I'll find you somehow In a summer's rain [4 times] Sometimes you got to believe Beyond yesterday I'm gonna find my way In the summer's rain |

Streets
As darkness falls so hard The children play .. Somewhere Out there Alone and out of place Streets of illusion Sooth the shattered fate I've been a runner I've been a sinner I've been inside my head I sit here staring Never quite caring And this is where it has led [Chorus] These streets Glitter in the dark Don't sleep Red eyes sunken and stark Dream deep In her arms where you are safe These streets Never sleep still never wake Somewhere out there Gardens bloom and grow Children awaken To a world they know Somewhere the sun shines Somewhere the light's kind Somewhere they seek the day Somewhere there's no scene Somewhere the air's clean But somewhere is so far away These streets Glitter in the dark Don't sleep Red eyes sunken and stark Dream deep In her arms where you are safe These streets Never sleep still never wake .... Welcome children From the other side In the darkness Your eyes are opened wide Here there are answers On the edge dancers Here the night hides out sins And if you listen While the streets glisten Here's where our story begins These streets Glitter in the dark Don't sleep Red eyes sunken and stark Dream deep In her arms where you are safe These streets Never sleep still never wake |

Somewhere in this universe of lost forgotten dreams
The silence weaves a tapestry of once enchanted themes The shadows listen carefully and question what it means For stories have lives of their own But what good's a story whose end is unknown Stay with me For the little night that's left to be For a moment in a memory That time cannot defile Stay with me Where the night still offers amnesty And the ending is tomorrow's unborn child And stay with me awhile The darkness covers everything and carefully watches all It hides behind the storm's lightning and cushions every fall And everything it witnesses it always can recall Like things that the heart can regret Bury in time and then try to forget Stay with me For the little night that's left to be For a moment in a memory That time cannot defile Stay with me While the night still offers amnesty And the ending is still yet to be tomorrow's unborn child And stay with me awhile |

Hey there Lord it's me I wondered if you're free Or not asleep This just won't keep It seems I just don't see Why all the things we asked Or prayed would come to pass Have gone unheard Like silent words That slip into the past For Lord they're not schemes Can't you tell dreams Why do you Let them slip by Never even tried It isn't you don't hear There's far too many tears Or can't you feel Are we unreal To one who knows no peers You say we must pay dues But still I am confused I need to walk And with you talk Instead of to statues For Lord they're not schemes Can't you tell dreams Why do you Let them slip by Never even tried You take all the fame But who'll accept the blame For all the hurts Down here on earth Unnecessary pain For surely you must care Or are you only air Built in out minds When we're in binds And never really there (Bridge) And can we be tired of you Is that something that we're allowed to do For even the blind change their view And it's time we tried something new And so I pled my case I'll now pull my escape Didn't mean to doubt What it's about Seems I forgot my place But if you find the time Please change the story line Or give a call Explain it all I'll even leave the dime |

If life's the length of this play Perhaps God gave the answers To those with nothing to say The years are forgiven If God's forgiving and kind Perhaps we'll all find the answers Somewhere in time Somewhere in time You were never one for waiting Still I always thought you'd wait for me Have you from your dream awakened And from where you are what do you see Which of us is now in exile Which in need of amnesty Are you now but an illusion In my mind alone you breathe You believed in things that I will never know You were out there drowning but it never showed Till inside a rain swept night you just let go You're thrown it all away And now we'll never see The ending of the play The grand design The final line And what was meant to be In the dark a distant runner Now has disappeared into the night Leaving us to stand and wonder Staring from this end into your life You believed in things that I will never know You were out there drowning but it never showed Till inside a rain swept night you just let go You've thrown it all away And now we'll never see The ending of the play The grand design The final line And what was meant to be |

They heard the voices sing Through the storm The island's closing in They'd heard tales Of lives lost at sea Deserted beach just beyond their reach You're approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for man tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors' lives Nine men made it to a shore A night of terror Lies neatly in store Who are those women? Are they real? Is this just a crazy dream? You're approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for flesh tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors' lives Terror happens quickly Remains till the sailors are gone They vanished in the night Sirens singing their song Whoa -- till they're gone... ALL RIGHT!! |

She's got shotgun innocence
In her eyes so intense Never sure of her intent She's a Paris pretty child Even got a wink that's styled Keeps it all behind a smile Look into those worldly eyes And you've got to wonder what she's done No use thinking you can win her Cause this child's already won And it's time that you stand up Show's on Here's why you paid Hold tight Net's gone So welcome to the stage And it's too late to be saved She don't need designer dress Has them all though I would guess Got the wardrobe of the blessed Cover of a magazine Movie star, beauty queen All wrapped up and razor clean Locking up with paradise Is really so much harder than it seems See her as a revelation Much more safely visited in dreams And it's time that you stand up Show's on Here's why you paid Hold tight Net's gone So welcome to the stage And it's too late to be saved So you find you're dreaming about her But it's such a little vice And if you think you've got a chance, boy Well it's time to roll the dice Stand up Show's on Here's why you paid Hold tight Net's gone So welcome to the stage Stand up Show's on Here's why you paid, yeah Hold tight, yeah Net's gone So welcome to the stage And it's too late to be saved Before it's too late Shotgun innocence Innocence |

This feeling has built up inside He's gonna take it all away!!!!!! How his alley resembles the morgue Can you hear the pounding of the doors? That is his house, he's gonna get you today Scream murder! The last words you say Scream murder, he's coming for you Blade in his hand, he knows what to do, yeah. Scream murder, what can you do? No one to help, it's just him and you H's gonna get you! Alright!! No!!!!!!! No!!!!!! Get away!!!!!!!!! No!!!!!!! No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No!!!!!!!!! |

In the town of Sarajevo, there's an old medieval square
There's a church aside one corner most believe was always there It was built a thousand years before any now were born And its glory was its belfry with its stones all gray... and worn Now there's a gargoyle on that belfry and he's been up there for years And he has watched and he has pondered: "What is laughter, what are tears?" And he's never found his answers as he sees the years go by But he watches and he wonders with his stone unblinking eyes |

Moving with a swiftness Closing in on me Children of the metal movement The legions growing stronger Stronger than they believe It's a power I'm drawing From a light that's glowing Power of the Night The call of the wild Power of the Night Raise the fist of the metal child Thrashing Screaming, twisting, banging Heads upon the platform The witch has been conceived Children of the metal movement The armies growing stronger Crack my cranium It's a power I'm drawing From a light that's glowing Power of the Night The call of the wild Power of the Night Raise the fist of the metal child Out there coming closer quicker Moving with a swiftness Closing in on me Children of the metal movement The legions growing stronger Stronger than they believe Thrashing Screaming, twisting, banging Heads upon the platform The witch has been conceived Power of the Night The call of the wild Power of the Night Raise the fist of the metal child Power of the Night The call from the wild Power of the Night Power of the Night |

Day
Into night Into day Into I don't know you anymore But I stand Where you say Thinking all the time you planned it You've been gone away too long Leaving us to carry on Though in truth you never tried Just stepped back and watched the slide Paragons of innocence Questioning of your intent Never quite sure what you meant From the other side Moments on the carousel Must admit we ride it well And the horses never tell All throughout the ride That no one leaves No one leaves No one leaves... Alive Time On my hands Slips away Till I just don't feel it anymore Thinking back When I can To the time when it began with Bits of dreams all in a line And somehow we missed the signs That it all was never real And in truth a fatal deal Paragons of innocence Questioning of your intent Never quite sure what you meant From the other side Moments on the carousel Must admit we ride it well And the horses never tell All throughout the ride No one leaves No one leaves No one leaves... Alive There always comes a time When you do what you want to do You know you shouldn't do it But you do it anyway And when he had that time When he knew what he wanted to He quickly placed his order Though he never thought he'd pay But the lines turned to lies And the lies turned to tangles And you're pale as a cadaver Though you think it doesn't show So you live with the lies And the friends that it gathers But somewhere in your heart you know you Got to let it Got to let it Go Paragons of innocence Questioning of your intent Never quite sure what you meant From the other side Moments on the carousel Must admit we ride it well And the horses never tell All throughout the ride No one leaves No one leaves No one leaves... Alive Then the sailor picked a coat up That had been laying there And placed it over the body And then he said a little prayer And the ocean brought in on a wave An old waterlogged wreath And pushed it up along the sand Till it touched the dead man's feet And written on that wreath In letters of gold foil Was the name veronica guerin But the letters were bent and soiled The sailor said I see these flowers That you so kindly gave Are obviously from far away And from another's grave And I cannot help but to think The sailor gently said That it's unwise in god eyes To steal flowers from the dead The ocean said please trust me friend This gift will cause no pain And the person to whom they once belonged Would surely say the same You see this wreath was from the funeral Of a woman who showed no fear Of men who lived in mansions Bought with other people's tears Of men who lived in mansions Bought with bits of others lives Who at night still hugged their children And brought gifts home to their wives With money made from heroin And packets of cocaine And if a buyer overdosed They never felt the pain There were many flowers at her funeral But none for this boy I fear So the wind has blown this wreath to me And I have brought it here She gave her life to stop the spread Of drugs among her kind And if we leave these flowers for this boy I'm sure she wouldn't mind |

I'd like to touch you, but you're not here today Now's the time I need you most, I think about the days we lost Baby, I need you here. I'm out on the streets alone tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? Walking down the avenues, the ones I would walk with you It's funny how the nights last so long And with the dawn, comes another day Why won't you come, baby? Can't you see I can't hold on? I'm out on the streets again tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? And so, comes another day My life without you seems to slip away I'm holding back the tears no more I feel like I'm locked behind these doors Will you walk with me someday? I'm out on the streets alone tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? |

One child stood out in the rain One child spent his time imagining And I don't believe he's coming home again, home again, home a... (chorus) Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find A tunnel out so we all can be saved If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave One child hid inside the darkness One child never said a thing One child closed his eyes and disappeared But at night I still can hear him whispering, whispering, whisper... (chorus) Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find A tunnel out so we all can be saved If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave (lead breakcoda) I will believe in you If you still want me to Or tell me I'm on my own There on the other side Tell me the Pilate's died And we're no longer alone (bridge) Take your answers and your promises, believe me I don't care I have held on to your words until I found them only air What good are your promises if you can always take them back? Still, I hang on every word till my hands are bleeding (coda) I will believe in you If you still want me to Or tell me I'm on my own There on the other side Tell me the Pilate's died And we're no longer alone (simultaneously) I will believe in you We had no choice but to stay and follow If you still want me to We have nothing left except tomorrow Or tell me I'm on my own We have nothing left except what will be There on the other side What we need here are some real deci |

Ow! My legs are breakin', can't take no more
Six days in a haze, locked behind a door Searchlight on my trail, I hear the sirens wail Footsteps close behind, they're after me now Moonlight lights the way to a clearing up ahead ____light through the trees, the hunter flees again How long can I run? I feel it's just begun Nowhere left to hide, they're gaining on me Oh, on the run, oh, on the run, run, run I can't run anymore, they move this way too fast Finally caught up to me, a victim of my past I feel them closing in, the bad guy just didn't win I will not go back, I'm still on the run Oh, on the run, oh, on the run, run, run, run, run, run |

Done rip you soul Don't turn your back Don't turn your back Car rolls by Move real slow Fade it to black Fade it to black But nothing's going on Nothing's going on Twisted nerves On shifting feet Taking up slack Taking up slack Gone too far Can't retreat Cover your tracks Cover your tracks Nothing's going on She's no queen of hearts But she's good to me Bring her coffin roses Brush her thorns and Let it bleed Just a hardcore dancer Puppet on a string One crippled romancer Strung so tight Gotta watch her swing Nothing's going on |
