Flying High Again

Got a crazy feeling I don't understand
'Gotta get away from here
Feelin' like I shoulda kept my feet on the ground
Waitin' for the sun to appear

Mamma's gonna worry
I been a bad bad boy
No use sayin' sorry
It's something that I enjoy

'Cause you can't see what my eyes see
(I can see it, I can see it)
And you can't be inside of me, flying high again

I can see through the mountains watch me disappear
I can even touch the sky
Swallowing colours of the sound I hear
Am I just a crazy guy. (You bet).

Mamma's gonna worry
I been a bad bad boy
No use sayin' sorry
It's something that I enjoy

If you could be inside my head
You'd see that black and white is read
Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again come on and join me.

Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again come on and join me.

Daddy thinks I'm lazy he don't understand
Never saw inside my head
People think I'm crazy but I'm in demand
Never heard a thing I said.

Mamma's gonna worry
I been a bad bad boy
No use sayin' sorry
It's something that I enjoy

Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again
Flying high again

Crazy Train

Crazy,but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as fooLS
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words
Yeh-h
Heirs of a cold war
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Diary Of A Madman

Screaming at the window
Watch me die another day
Hopeless situation endless price I have to pay

Sanity now it's beyond me there's no choice

Diary of a madman
Walk the line again today
Entries of confusion
Dear diary I'm here to stay.

Manic depression befriends me
Hear his voice
Sanity now it's beyond me
There's no choice.

A sickened mind and spirit
The mirror tells me lies
Could I mistake myself for someone
Who lives behind my eyes
Will he escape my soul
Or will he live in me
Is he tryin' to get out or tryin' to enter me.

Voices in the darkness
Scream away my mental health
Can I ask a question
To help me save me from myself

Enemies fill up the pages
Are they me
Monday till sunday in stages

Shot In The Dark

Out on the street i'm stalking the night
i can hear my heavy breathing
paid for the kill but it doesn't seem right
something there i can't believe in
voices are calling from inside my head
i can hear them i can hear them
vanishing memories of things that were said
they can't try to hurt me now

but a shot in the dark one step away from you
a shot in the dark always creeping up on you

taught by the powers that preach over me
i can hear their empty reason
i wouldn't listen i learnt how to fight
i opened up my mind to treason
but just like the wounded and when it's too late
they'll remember they'll surrender
never a care for that people who hate
underestimate me now

but a shot in the dark one step away from you
a shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
a shot in the dark always creeping up on you

but just like the wounded and when it's too late
they'll remember they'll surrender
never a care for the people who hate
underestimate me now

but a shot in the dark one step away from you
a shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
a shot in the dark always creeping up on you

Thank God For The Bomb

Like moths to a flame
is man never gonna change
time's seen untold aggression
and infliction of pain
if that's the only thing that's stopping war

then thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb

nuke ya nuke ya

war is just another game
tailor made for the insane
but make a threat of their annihilation
and nobody wants to play
if that's the only thing that keeps the peace

then thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb

nuke ya nuke ya

today was tommorow yesterday
it's funny how the time can slip away
the face of the doomsday clock
has launched a thousand wars
as we near the final hour
time is the only foe we have

when war is obsolete
i'll thank god for the war's defent
but any talk about hell freezing over
is all said with tongue in cheek
until the day the war drums beat no more

then thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb
thank god for the bomb

nuke ya nuke ya

Bark At The Moon 

Screams break the silence
waking from the dead of night
vecence is boiling
he's returned to kill the light
then when he's found who he's looking for
listen in awe and you'll hear him

bark at the moon

years spent in torment
buried in a nameless grave
now he has risen
miracles would have to save
those thast this beast is looking for
listen in awe and you'll hear him

bark at the moon

they cursed and buried him along with shame
and thought his timeless soul had gone
in empty burning hell - unholy one
but now he's returned to prove them wrong (oh no)
howling in shadows
living in a lunar spell
he finds his heaven
spewing from the mouth of hell

and when he finds who he's looking for
listen in awe and you'll hear him
bark at the moon.

Tonight

Now I'm back out on the streets again
It never rains unless it pours
Try to get back on my feet again
I hear the raging thunder as it roars

Tonight tonight is it just a rhapsody
Or am I right
Tonight tonight is it all a mystery
I just can't fight no more.

I hear the questions surface my mind
Of the mistakes that I have made.
Times and places have left behind
And am I ever gonna make the grade.

Tonight tonight is it just a rhapsody
Or am I right
Tonight tonight is it all a mystery
I just can't fight no more.

As I beat my head against the wall
Running around in circles in vain
I'm feeling three foot tall
You don't understand I'm fading away.

Don't want your pity or your sympathy
It isn't gonna prove a thing to me
Good intentions pave the way to hell
Don't worry when you hear me sing.

Tonight tonight is it just a rhapsody
Or am I right
Tonight tonight is it all a mystery
I just can't fight no more.

Little Dolls

Wrything and screaming the pain just won't go
He'll show you no mercy.
Your image in his hands it's useless to try
Escaping his curses.

The pins and needles prick the skin of little dolls.

Tortured and flaming you give birth to hell
Living a nightmare.
It's a pity you'll pray for your death
But he's in no hurry.

The pins and needles prick the skin of little dolls.

No where to run - your fate is in his hands
Your time has come - you'll live to his command
I'm warning you - the worst is yet to come
The killer who - remains a mystery

I that believe in the stories of old - would never fight it.
Demons and curses that play on our soul
Like something ignited.

You never imagined such a fate could follow you
(You never thought it was true)
And when it's your time I wonder how you'll do
Your kind of trouble's running deeper than the sea
You broke the world
You've been a fool
The little doll is you yeah!

No where to run - your fate is in his hands
Your time has come - you'll live to his command
I'm warning you - the worst is yet to come
The killer who - remains a mystery

Wrything and screaming the pain just won't go
He'll show you no mercy.
Your image in his hands it's useless to try
Escaping his curses.

No where to run - your fate is in his hands
Your time has come - you'll live to his command
I'm warning you - the worst is yet to come
The killer who - remains a mystery

Steal Away (The Night)

Now I feel the time is right
Love will flow like wine tonight
Give your love and it will come to you
If you feel that you and me
Could escape and hold the key
To a paradise that's true and free

Steal away, steal away
Steal away - the night

Now I've met your honesty
You are here and I am free
Broken chains have fallen all around
Point my finger at the fools
Broken chains and broken rules
Let it be rebellion rules tonight

Steal away, steal away
Steal away - the night

Can it be a dream come true
Now that I am here with you
Tearful eyes of joy is something new
Runaway with me tonight
Dream the dream, light the light
Happiness is what you give to me
Steal away, steal away
Steal away - the night

So Tired

Time has come to say goodbye
i know it's gonna make you cry
but you belong to another my love
and half a love that just isn't enough

i am so tired
and i just can't wait around for you
i am so tried
and i always thought we would see it through

i've waited all this time for you
believed your promises were true
i keep believing that you mean what you say
you'll leave tommorow - now tommorow's today

and i often sit and wonder why
you're not with me tonight
i stayed at home remaining true
while you were out with you know who

i am so tired
and i just can't wait around for you
i am so tried
and i always thought we would see it through
