AGE OF ICE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 3:55

Promise bought and sold
Consequence of paying the toll
Well this ramble I been on
Always seen me broken and driftin'

Forever coming on
Think I might be losing control - yeah
Innocence is gone
Thought the world was trying to cheat me

Always content to believe
In something that no one could see
Borrowing right from the wrong
Been waiting for an angel to come

Now the age of ice is over
I feel it slipping through my hands
Another day another older

Morning never show
Wasting the black of the night - yeah
Days have been and gone
Silence in the wake of deceiving
Borrowing right from the wrong
Been waitin' for an angel to come

I feel it slippin' through my hands
Another day a little bolder
Aaaah

ALIVE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 4:50

When all your dreams are hangin on the edge
When all the walls come down
Can't see a way through the madness of the day
Look to the power above

There's something greater out there
Open up your heart
He is the answer to the struggles found in front of you

Alive in the arms of mercy
A greater love you'll never find
Safe in the arms of mercy
Waited so long

When you're coming up short of abundance that you seek
You feel like you're all alone
Can't find escape from the emptiness in side
You've got to let it all go

There's something greater out there
Open up your heart
He suffered on that cross for each and every one of you

Alive in the arms of mercy
A greater love you'll never find
Safe in the arms of mercy
Waited so long

You're overloaded and hangin by a thread
When all your wells have run dry
Can't see a way through the madness of your life
Look to the Savior above

There's something greater out there
Open up your heart
He is the answer to the struggles found in front of you

Alive in the arms of mercy
A greater love you'll never find
Safe in the arms of mercy
Waited so long

Alive in the arms of mercy
A promise of eternal life
Safe in the arms of mercy
Waited so long

ANYTIME

(Music : S. Mann/Lyrics: R. McAuley) 5:45

Blow a kiss from your hand
I'll catch it 'fore it hits the ground
Cry a little for our fears Baby! Baby!
I'm so scared There's something wrong
I hid you in the corner Of my empty room
Never really cared 'til now
Not standin' in the corner for me Anymore
You've done your time
Pass your sentence and I'll pass mine
And when my time is through Can I still come home to you

Anytime Anytime you want me
Anytime Anytime you're lonely
You just have to call, 'Cos you know I'll be there
Anytime Anytime you need me
Anytime Anytime maybe you're dreamin'
Wakin' up all alone Your heart is screamin'

I know I caused you so much pain
I promise that I'll never hurt you again
Even though the scars remain
With a little time I know we can win
Can't stop this fire
Lost control over my desire
It burns for you Like it always used to do

ARACHNOPHOBIAC

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 4:46

One lonely spider
Creepy crawlin up my wall
Two more inside of my shoe

I found his friends in my bed
In the night they're crawlin on my head
What am I supposed to do?

This is an infestation
Changin the sheets won't do!
It needs a fumigation
And I don't wanna be there when they come out!

Too many spiders
Creepy crawlin on my wall
Don't like to stay here alone

I see a big ol' sticky web
In the shower they're right overhead
I just need to go back home

This is an infestation
Changin the sheets won't do!
It needs a fumigation
And I don't wanna be there when they crawl out!

I want my money back!
Arachnophobiac

One lonely spider
Creepy crawlin up my wall
I found his brother in my shoe

He's got some friends in my bed
In the shower they fall on my head
Where's that hairy one crawlin to?

This is an infestation
Changin the sheets won't do!
It needs a fumigation
They're comin after you!

I want my money back!
Arachnophobiac

ARMED AND READY

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 4:06

Are you high tonight, are you feeling right,
Cos I need you now, like I never did before,
Is it hard enough, is It loud enough
Cos if you don't approve,you can use the door
Armed and ready,I gotta gunsight trained on you

I'm in overdrive,and I feel alive,
Got everything I need, and that ain't all,
Got a thing to do, I wanna do for you,
I wanna see you jump like hell when I call
Armed and ready, I gotta spotlight trained on you
Armed and ready, don't let me down tonight

Are you high tonight, are you feeling right,
Cos I need you now, like I never did before,
Is it hard enough, is It loud enough
Cos if you don't approve,you can use the door

Armed and ready,I got my gunsight trained on you
Armed and ready,don't let me down tonight

Are you high tonight, are you feelin right,
is it hard enough, is it loud enough,
Are you high!

ASSAULT ATTACK

(Michael Schenker, Graham Bonnet, Chris Glen, Ted McKenna) 4:16

You put me down,That's what I said
I hit the clouds and you kicked me in the head
Ain't that a strange thing for you to do I'll never get it now together we were new
I don't need this, you don't want that
I wonder when you're gonna get upon my back
You'd better keep me just while you may
You'd better stick around or get out the way

Why don't you want me
You cannot know
Why love me
Then go

Just straighten out your head and mind
Forget about the things that make you draw the line
Don't want to take warnings from you
Can't have much more of this What are you tryin' to do

Why don't you want me
You cannot know
Why love me
Then go

There's got to be some other way
It's time to work it out
Turn it blue from grey
Your cutting out is cutting in
We have no time to bleed the blood is running thin
I don't need this you don't want that
I wonder where you're gonna get on the track
You'd better keep me just where you may
You'd better stick around until you're on the way

Why don't you want me
You cannot know
Why love me
Then go

ATTACK OF THE MAD AXEMAN

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 4:18

Sneaking round the back streets
Don't stay out to late
cause he's got something he want's to give to you
He calls in his dreams, with his phantom screams
Hide from the shadows in the night
Only day will save you,

Gotta watch the attack of the mad axeman
He can take you anytime he pleases
He wants to make you bleed,

Around town his laughter sounds
Deep into the night, that flash of knife in the
Flickering lights for you
He knows when he's down
But he's got to have more
Cause he thrives on excess celebration!

Time after time, in the wings, you can see him
He's only looking for fun, in his dreams; Ah..
Watch the attack of the mad axeman!

BACK TO LIFE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Leif Sundin) 6:12

One more try is wasted
One more lesson learned
Too much fun I've tasted
One more bridge has burned

One more mind is twisted
One more heart is torn
One more lie is whispered
One false truth is born

In my darkest hour
When my trouble has begun

I can't light up the darkness
I cannot kill the pain
Can't turn off the madness
That grows in every man

And all this time we wasted
Love is overdue
Love runs down on empty
Pain will cover you

In the midnight hour
When my love is on the run

But I will try to find it
And it will come to me
I will walk in silence
Until she walks with me

Let's take it to the other side
Our love is coming back to life
Let all the tears put out the fire
It's coming back to life

I can't deny the hunger
Can't forget the pain
Can't be here much longer
I lost my way again
No straight path is granted
It's a long and dirty road
It may leave me empty handed
Or it may lead me home

But when I try to find it
It will come to me
I will walk in silence
And she will walk with me
I will find the answer
She will make me see

Let's take it to the other side
Our love is coming back to life
Let all the tears put out the fire
Our love is coming back to life
Back to life

One more town behind me
In the fading city lights
Your face still in my rearview
Such a pretty sight
You paint another blue sky
With your million dollar smile
You make another sun rise
Past the highway signs

In my darkest hour
When the trouble has begun
In the midnight hour
When my love is on the run

I will try to find it
And it will come to me
I will walk in silence
And she will walk with me

Let's take it to the other side
Our love is coming back to life
Let all the tears put out the fire
Our love is coming back to life
Back to life

BAD BOYS

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Robin McAuley) 4:05

Never Enough, never enough , It's too little for me
Cry wolf, cry cry wolf, The black sheep of the family
Give an inch, give an inch, Always taking a mile
Lie down with the push and shove Yeah I can make you smile
Bad boys Never seem to care about anything
Bad boys You don't wanna mess around
Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun
Bad boys We really don't care

It's really tough, really tough When you ain't got no money
Livin' rough is heavy stuff Where ya gonna get your milk and honey
I wanna be in the movies See myself on the silver screen
Romeo playin' all those parts In positions you ain't never seen
Bad boys Never seem to care about anything
Bad boys You don't wanna mess around
Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun
Bad boys We really don't care

The kinda things we like to do
You don't wanna know if it's good for you
We're so bad through and through
The same could happen It's gonna happen to you

New York, New York city My kinda town
But L.A. on a sunny day, wow! When you've got the roof down
There's blonde hair everywhere They sure have got the style
The bad boys taken everythin' Drivin' everybody wild
Bad boys Never seem to care about anything
Bad boys You don't wanna mess around
Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun
Bad boys We really don't care

BECAUSE I CAN

(Music/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 3:01

Cruisin' down the back roads
Runnin' out of time
Mind's eye on the frequency
I'm driving on the line
Nothing coming easy
Had to toil for the truth

Had to dig on down to the underground
Just to find out what it's worth - yeah
I know I can't fake it
My soul I can't deny
Steppin' up and take it
Because I can!

Nights are getting colder and
Winter's on the way
Silence on the airwaves
The images are grey
Cruisin' down the back roads
Runnin' out of fuel
Had to dig on down to the underground
Just to get it back home to you

I can't stand to fake it

Life is on the line

Step right up and take it
Because I can!

I know I can't fake it
Because I can!

BLINDED BY TECHNOLOGY

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 5:08

Way back in the days of New
There used to be a way to get it through
It marked the dawning of an age
But if you look today you won't find it

It's been tightly locked away
All the big boys - They won't let it play

Even though they brought it on themselves

The mighty tyrant spreads its wrath
Upon the human race
"Never Give The Faithful Ones A Chance"
They lived by in disgrace

Nevermind true talent
And the ones with tortured souls
They ain't gonna make the man a buck
Or two a million fold

Blinded by technology
You know who you are
You can hold us down
But you'll never take what I've got

Inside of me
I'm gonna sing it to you now
Inside of me

Next time around
Gonna put you in your place
You're gonna pay the price
For such a big disgrace

Next time around
We ain't gonna go so easy
Big money world - it come down
It come a-crashin' down on you
Come a-crashin' down on you
Come a-crashin' down on you

Come a-crashin down on you
Gonna come a crashin' down

Next time around
Gonna put you in your place
You're gonna pay the price
For such a big disgrace

Next time around
We ain't gonna go so easy
Big money world
Gonna come a crashin' down on you
Come a-crashin' down on you
Come a-crashin' down on you
Come a-crashin down on you
Gonna come a crashin' down

Nevermind the talented
And the ones with tortured souls
They ain't gonna make the man
A buck a million fold
Blinded by technology
You know who you are
You can hold us down
But you'll never take what I've got

Next time around
Gonna put you in your place
You're gonna pay the price
For such a big discgrace

Next time around
We ain't gonna go so easy
Big money world
Gonna come a crashin' down on you

BREAK THE CYCLE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 3:50

Now that everything is over
And our love has breathed it's last
I can see the lines so clearly
Through the panes of broken glass

In the end it's all the same
It's time to right another wrong

Frozen
Break the cycle
Sorrow
A way to turn back time
Frozen
I'll get it right someday
Sorrow
Break the cycle!

Looking back I see the warnings
In the echoes of the past
Wanted to believe your heart was
More than just a stone to pass

In the end it's all the same
It's time to right another wrong

Frozen
Break the cycle
Sorrow
A way to turn back time
Frozen
I'll get it right someday
Sorrow
Break the cycle!

When it's done the frozen sorrow
Slowly wanes and melts away
But the scars and broken dreams are
Never worth the price I pay

In the end it's all the same
It's time to right another wrong

Frozen
Break the cycle
Sorrow
A way to turn back time
Frozen
I'll get it right someday
Sorrow
Break the cycle!

Frozen
Break the cycle
Sorrow
A way to turn back time
Frozen
I'll get it right someday
Sorrow
Break the cycle!
Yeah

BRAVE NEW WORLD

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Leif Sundin) 4:16

I've been down this road before
Like a fool coming back for more
But I need what you have in store
I'll be coming through your open door

I have seen those clouds of rain
In the open desert sky
I have tried to ease the pain
And spread my wings and fly

Sometimes I feel like crying
When it falls from my hand
And all our kingdoms turn to sand

But these are the days of wonder
This is our brave new world
This is the spell we're under
This is our brave new world

When you close your weary eyes
And you think of what you had
Then the web of hurt and lies
Has changed from good to bad

Sometimes I feel like dying
When I reach for your hand
And all my kingdoms turn to sand

These are the days of wonder
This is our brave new world
This is the spell we're under
This is our brave new world

What is the meaning of it all
What are we waiting for
Is it the calm before the storm
Tell me what lies behind that door

These are the days of wonder
This is our brave new world
This is the spell we're under
This is our brave new world

Brave new world

This is our brave new world

BROKEN PROMISES

(Michael Schenker, Graham Bonnet, Chris Glen) 6:21

Feeling I could hold you, And you want me to
But all your broken promises, Heartache through and through
Looking for directions, Should I go or stay
All your broken promises Getting in the way

You're the right kind of lover, You're looking for cover

Falling over losing, Try to understand
All your broken promises Getting out of hand
Running out of patience, Losing ground for speed
All your broken promises, May just kill the need

You're the right kind of lover, But you're looking for cover
You're the right kind of lover, But you're looking for cover
Head to head, face to face
Out of time,Out of place
Back to back, we can fall
Your broken promises can lose it all

Undecided things, While waiting in the wings
For the start of the show
To make a move and let it flow over me

In and out my life
It cuts me like a knife
Heal the wound stop the pain
Let out spirits flow with the rain
Oh wowwow,

Feeling I could hold you If you want me to
All your broken promises, Breaking me in two
What's the right direction, Shall I go or stay
All your broken promises Getting in my way

You're the right kind of lover And I want you to cover
You're the right kind of lover, But you're looking for cover
Head to head, face to face
Out of time,Out of place
Back to back, bound to fall
With broken promises we lose all

BUT I WANT MORE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 7:00

I ve seen a lot of changes in my life ,I ve seen at what harm can be done
I know I must fight out for my life,Confuse me rights that are wrong
I've seen a lot of changes come my way And you'll have to answer for some
When voices of innocents cry out
Seeking the justice to come
Lies that's all I ever get from you
No matter how I try, by crying out their rights to you
Don't give them lies and empty promises

Hate, that's all I want to give to you
Cold blooded hate, no I don't want to die for you
Don't give them lies and empty promises, no more lies

I'm thinking that someday, thinking of the times
We used to have before, I know in a small way
I'm giving all I got, but just that little bit more
I've gone in the fast lane, I'm going down I'm going down, I gotta have more
I can't stand and stargaze, oh, cause I want more

Sometime in my life, a day will come
And I know that you won't understand
You re running in blind confusion
Losing your voice of command

I know in that life, my time will come
You might feel ashamed, gone out are all the reasons
When I know you don't give a damn

Lies, that's all I ever get from you
So hard they try by spilling out their lives for you
Don't give them lies ,and empty promises, no more lies

Seems like seventh heaven, but I'm going down
I'm going down I cant take anymore,
Can somebody free me
I've givin'all I got, but they want to take more
I'm trapped in the fast lane, I'm going down
I'm going down, I gotta give more
I can't stand and stargaze, oh, cause I want more

CRAZY

(Music : Newton/Lyrics: McAuley) 4:53

Gotta move, can't sit on my ass
I'm movin' up to a higher class
No time. no time to waste
I'm gonna wipe that smile off your face. yeah'
So tired gotta shake it up!
I'm long gone before the breakin' up!
I work hard for little pay
I'm sick and tired of livin'this way cos'

I've been close to the border line
I gotta keep rockin'
Just to make a dime
My woman keeps me pumpin'
And that's alright
But I wake up screamin' in the middle of the night

Goin' crazy, It's driven me mod
Crazy, for the things I never have
Crazy did someone call my name
I woke up screamin'
She was doin' it again

Got no credit, my Daddy's in jail
My Mama's got pregnant by another man
It's too late. too late to change it
A half breed brother and I know
They never plaoned it

I wish Superman was inside my body
Batman and all the gang
My favorite buddies
Bang-bang, shoot 'em all down!
Lifes a bloody circus
And I'm the star clown, 'cos

No one ever takes me serious
They say. "he's on drugs, he's delirious"
A sex-crazed maniac, always on the run
Cos' his mama and his Papa
They don't seem to give a damn

21 I'm the lone one
I live my life with a loaded gun
Bang, bang there it goes again
I don't really give a damn
What jail they put me in, 'cos

My Daddy's there and that's alright
He won't be sleeping much when he knows I'm inside
Gonna pay a little visit when they call lights out
He'll be kickin' and a screamin'
When he sees how I turned out

CRY FOR THE NATIONS

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 5:08

A time of fear, so long ago,
Lived a man in Salon,
In his dark and magic room,
He gazed on times to come,
All is then revealed, and visions on water speak true!
Cry for the nations, cry for the nations.

A flash of light, fills the night,
And chills the blood in his veins,
Will the power possess his mind, soul in chains
All is then revealed, and tears that he shed were for you
Cry for the nations, cry for the nations.
Battles of kings, and of fools,
And changes in ways he once knew,
As pages of days fade away
He's lost in time

Cry for the nations
Cry for the nations

Cry, cry, cry, cry

Cry for the nations
Cry for the nations

CRY NO MORE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Leif Sundin) 5:18

When you were tangled in the sheets
Did your soul get burned
Just trying to make ends meet
Now the tide has turned

But I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more

When will you ever realize
You are blessed not cursed
And things you sacrifice
Only make things worse

But I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more
I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more

Tell me who are the tears for
That fall in your life
And who are you here for
When you see me tonight

Night has fallen once again
Time to break that spell
Can we make it to the end
Only time will tell

But I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more

And where is that fire
That burned in your eyes
Don't kill that desire
That keeps you alive

Tell me who are the tears for
That fall in your life
And who are you here for
When you see me tonight

If you listen to my heart
If you read my mind
Light will glisten from the stars
If you see the signs

And I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more
I will be there tomorrow
No need to cry no more

And where is that fire
That burned in your eyes
Don't kill that desire
That keeps you alive

Cry no more
No need to cry no more

No need to cry no more

DANCER

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Graham Bonnet) 4:41

She works at it hard and she keeps herself to herself
But she can take what she gets anyway
She talks of the things and places she wants to go
But she knows that she wants all the things she wants

She's a great dancer

Not ideally built for ballet
She's got her calling card to live this way

The young teenage boys
Would climb on cars just to take a look
They watch her move, schoolboy dreamers fantasy

She's a dancer, not ideally built for ballet

Embracing everyone to see the play

Everyone's eyes are looking on as she takes the stage
Seeing themselves as she plays out their lives for them

She's a great dancer

She works everyday, does anyone care ?
Playing the fool is anyone there?

She's a dancer, not ideally built for ballet

She still looks quite young and the world has a space for her
Something there in her face good to photograph
The reason she said, for being able to take success
Living this life, cause she only has this chance

She's a dancer, not ideally built for ballet

Everybody knows, she knows, she knows
She's got a good voice
She's keen and got some visual sense
She's keen and has to take a chance
Which she knows in her streetwise way
She knows, she knows..

DESERT SONG

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Graham Bonnet) 5:51

We're sailing ships across the desert
And fading in the Arabian sun
You're stallion stands to watch the sun set
The women scream as the camels run

To find a mirage cool oasis
And lie beneath the palms and the sky
And spend the night a silver moon set
The rising sun in the eagles eye

The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand

Burnin' with desert fire, Cooling the man

Endless is the blowing desert
And in the shipwreck some may be lost
Too hot the sand too deep the oceans
It's just surviving whatever the cost

The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand

We're sailing ships across the desert
And fading in the Arabian sun
You're stallion stands to watch the sun set
The women scream as the camels run

The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand

DESTINY

(S.Mann/R. McAuley) 4:35

Better run Run away
No time, to be a hero
You wanna live to fight, another day
Don't look back, look straight ahead
One wrong move you'll be better off dead
They're out to get you boy,
you'd better run Run away
They'll soon be breathing down your neck
gonna kick you in the crutch
Hold on to life, better stay in touch
You hold the power in your hands
Control your destiny, make them understand
You are a part of future plans
Together you and me, we gotta make a stand

Politics Get in the way
Children starve and all they say
You wanna live your gonna have to pay
No way, we should stand for this
A false word and a broken promise
Don't let them fool you now,
retaliateIt's not too late they'll try to complicate
don't crawl not at all
I'm waiting for your call
You hold the power in your hands
Control your destiny, make them understand
You are a part of future plans
Together you and me, we gotta make a stand

Can't seem to get enough
Can't seem to show no mercy
They'll run you down if you let 'em
Pick it up, kick it up
Never let 'em get your back up
Take it in your stride, and let it go
I will follow; to the end of time
One word, one reason, soon it could be mine
it's love I'm speaking of
Turns you inside, outside, upside down
You're confused-I feel like I've been used
You hold the power in your hands
Control your destiny, make them understand
You are a part of future plans
Together you and me, we gotta make a stand

DOGS OF WAR

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 4:51

Nothing worth taking, all was forsaken
Hit on the blind side, caught in the spotlights
Warning came late, no chance of alluding
Time had run out,
All that was left was the smoke from the ruins

Shadows were long as they forged through the night
Looking for signs of the day,
Deep in their minds as they walked out of sight
Leading the hours away

Mission completed ' all were defeated
Branded with fire, Now filled with desire

Message came through on the wings of a prayer
Feelings were high for a time
Slap on the backs for the ones who had dared
To run with the wolves of our time

The heat is on, When victorys won, And your outout in the cold,
The dogs of war, Will bite the hand for a price, And then hear them roar

Their mission completed, The innocents bleeding
Hit on the blind side, Caught in the spotlights
Warning came late, No chance of alluding
Time had run out
All they had left was the smoke and the ruins

Shadows were long as they forged through the night
Looking for signs of the day,
Slap on the backs for the one's who had dared
To buy someone's freedom' who pays?

The heat is on, When victory's, Won, and your out out in the cold
The dogs of war, will bite the hand for a price, And then hear them roar

DON'T STOP ME NOW

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Robin McAuley)

I can't be sure but did I get it right
Yeah! You're watching me
I think you should begin
Start bringing out the man
Let's share the mystery
Can it be you're just playing a little game
I'll never be the same again
Never had a feeling such as this
Lord I'm going overboard
You're like a nuclear division
Coming at me from all sides
About to explode
Can it be you're just leading me astray
I can't believe the things you say
Your innocence your little school girl eyes
Take me to your paradise

Don't stop me now
You might ruin everything
Don't stop me now
The animal is free again

Night time finds me in the danger zone
My defenses are down
Captured by your every move I'm lost
Gotta get myself on course
I can feel the silence coming through
I wanna be a part of you
Waiting for that moment of surprise
Tonight there'll be no compromise

Lights are flashing all around me now
It's all systems go
Release yourself just let your feelings show
Experience can make you grow
Can it be you've got something on your mind
I'd do anything to find
Imagination running wild in me
Ragin' now in ecstasy

DOWN THE DRAIN

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Leif Sundin) 3:48

We share a broken arrow
We share a life
We pray that something better
Will turn this thing around
We are the broken people
We are the ghosts
And I know there ain't nobody
Who can save us now

So let it rain, wash away the pain
Let it rain, and wash it down the drain

We left the water running
Til' the well was dry
I watch while our life's burning
Flames reach for the sky

So let it rain, wash away the pain
Let it rain, and wash it down the drain

If you are lost and never found
If you are down and nowhere bound
If your river's black and your sea is green
Let the rain come down and wash you clean

We braved the stormy waters
And the burning sand
We walked on holy water
To find this no man's land

Let it rain, wash away the pain
Let it rain, and wash it down the drain

EYES OF A CHILD

(Music/Lyrics : Michael Schenker) 4:51

Don't do this
Don't do that

It's all we ever hear
Love your neighbour
Love your foe
And don't fight with your peer

All's well if said and done
To use love and not a gun
Don't know if that's what you do

In God we trust
He will save us
Wise words that you use
When it comes down to it
You end up in a pit
And everything's confused

Like a child that's lost his toy
Creating war next door
That's how it all appears to me

We learn from you how it should be
It seems that war is all we have
It's all so sad
What will happen to me?

Give to the poor
Help out the weak
That's what we learn from you
Give it all back
Relinquish the greed
That's what you need to do

You create so many rules
End up locked up just like fools
You say that love will set us free

You've always taught us not to fight
And suddenly that's all you do
It's all so sad
How can we understand?

You are bewildered by the truth
The fear is closing in on you
It's all so sad
Will we lose everything?

How can we understand?
The fear is closing in
Will we lose everything?
We thought that love would set us free
What will happen to me?

ESCAPE FROM THE BOX

(Music/Lyrics : Michael)

Stuck in the box
Nobody knows where to go
We are held together in this particular space,
Shaking. Afraid Suffocating each other.
I have made up my mind
I am leaving
I can see the disbelief in their faces, but I am going. Bye. Its all made up.
The guns and the bullets are unreal. so are the guards.
Where to go?
Someone gave me directions
It had been done before many times
There is a place where you can live freely, the only things you need to bring is
Faith, Trust, Love, Goodwill, The right attitude.
So I am on my way
The village bells are ringing, the drums are playing.
I hear bullets, but I know they are not real.
I just need to keep going
I am meeting someone on the way and together we keep going.
Guns keep shooting.
Once in a while we get scared, forgetting that it is all made up,
but the special instructions given to us keeps reminding us that there is nothing to fear.
Already things are changing, things becoming more pleasant and, we know
we can go back at any time to let others know that they can move freely
if they choose to, because the box is made up.

EVE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Robin McAuley) 4:52

I got my lights on a brand new target
Pretty a flower
She's got long, long legs
Let me tell you
I aim to hit my target through
Her hair is wild like her body moves
Let me put you in the picture
She does all the right things
Anywhere it seems
She's the new girl in my dreams

Ooh! What does, she does it
Until you can't stop it now!
Can't stop her now!
She does it in a way
Like no other woman

When Eve came aloog
Woman, found her man to carry on

When God made Woman for Man
This little old devil said
I'll take what I can
'Cause Adam he don't understand
Eve is my woman
This devit is her man

It's a dirty job, but it's a gift from God
I know I can't refuse her
Under his command
I'm in the palm of her hand
As long as she just understand

Ooh! She makes me feel
Like I'm the first lover she ever had
(And that ain't bad)
'Cause when God made man
He knew what he was doin'

When Eve came along
Woman, found her man to carry on

I got my sights
On a brand new target
Pretty as a flower
She's got long, long legs
Let me tell you
I aim to hit my target through

She's a bitch from hell
I know her very well
She put the "E" in evil
But she just cant cope
'Cause she ain't got no hope
When she's up against
This little devil

Oh! When we're together
We make it last forever
And that's a fact
'Cause there's a fire that's burnin'
Inside this little woman

When Eve came along
Woman, found her man to carry an lovin'
The world began
With a woman and a man

Oh! It's a miracle

EVERMORE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 5:22

Been a ten fold fury - grindin - bustin
Tryin-a make my life
Yeah the law it keep a comin
The piper always takes his cut twice
And I know - there's a hard knock a-shakin down my door
Gotta break & cut loose

In the end this game is mine
Ain't gonna let that slip away!

Evermore
Gonna live the life I 'been fightin for
One more day and
Evermore
Gonna reach the sun
Been a hard road comin my way

Just a longhair, hustler, finger, drifter
Boy your brand ain't right!
And if you think I'm only frontin
I tell you now you better think twice
Yeah I know - the way I'm makin is paved with broken dreams
But I know I can't loose

In the end this game is mine
Ain't gonna let that slip away!

Evermore
Gonna live the life I 'been fightin for
One more day and
Evermore
Gonna reach the sun
Been a hard road comin my way

It's all about the shuffle
Snuff your spirit out before it's time
Yeah the way they got me runnin
I 'been leavin all my aces behind
Yeah I know - I'm makin time on a line that's runnin thin
But I know I'll break through

In the end this game is mine
Ain't gonna let that slip away!

Evermore
Gonna live the life I 'been fightin for
One more day and
Evermore
Gonna reach the sun
Been a hard road comin my way

Evermore

FALLEN THE LOVE

(Schenker/Logan/Patlan) 4:28

Fallen the love we had

Should've seen her coming from a mile away
It was the fire that she had within I saw
Now all I have is blackened days
Yeah she took me down the hard way

All I could want
Everything I hoped for
No way I could be blind
Here it comes again
Same old story every time

Woah, Lord
How long

Fallen, the leaves are grey
Well I tried and tried to get her on the phone
Cuz I'm sick and tired of bein' all alone
Well I played her game I got a losing hand
Yeah, she dropped me short of the promised land

Woah, Lord
How long
Fallen the leaves are grey
What was so wrong?
How can it be?

Slippin' - Slidin' - Moving back and forth
Gotta leave this town - gonna head up north
She's a stone cold lover andit's easy to see
Hard luck woman make a fool out of me

Woah, Lord
How long
Fallen the leaves are grey
What was so wrong?
How can it be?
Fallen, the love
Fallen, the love we had

FAT CITY N.O.

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Kelly Keeling) 4:16

Gone through a lot for my freedom
Lost a life along the way
Left home everything I own
As I headed out to join the charade
Got caught up with the wild and the madness
May have gone too far I must confess
I must confess
My money hid away in the gas tank
Gotta keep it steady no joke no mistake
Soon I'll be telling you to hold on
Strapped in my four forty Hemmy burning

Long live Fat City
Got nothing to lose
White blue down the avenue
It's worth everything I know
Lone live Fat City
Out blowing a fuse
Set this town alight

I found my way out the backstreet
Glad to be alive
A hundred more mile I'll be long gone
No more fighting or scrapes to survive
Up ahead says rest for riders
Headlights maybe red lights beware
I look into my rear view mirror
They're closer than they do appear
Another minute I'll be far away
Another second I'll be shifting gears

Paid a lot for my freedom
I never wondered why
Memory's clear and reminds me daily
It was so close but I passed them by
There was a space by the policeman
Gunshots all around over my head
Look into my rear view mirror
Closer than they will appear
Another minute I'll be far away
Another second I'll be shifting gears

Set it alight
Set this town alight

FATAL STRIKE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Chris Logan) 4:25

Into the cold wind
A solo flight
Eyes on the heads up
Radar source in sight
Crossin the border at Rafha
He kills the lights

Straight into combat
One lone hero flies

Fatal strike
Why won't they lay it down
It's a fatal strike
They never saw him coming

Re-checks his heading
And the fuel he's got
Eyes on the crosshairs
GBUs are hot
Closing the target
His heart races
Max range high

Laser is locked on
He drops and banks it high

Fatal strike
Why won't they lay it down
It's a fatal strike
They never saw him coming

The night erupts in a
Storm of fire
Hot metal tracers
Wingman holding tight

Makin' it out undetected and
Homeward bound

Nighthawk heros
Racing through the night

Fatal strike
Why won't they lay it down
It's a fatal strike
They never saw him coming

FEELS LIKE A GOOD THING

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 3:45

I know what I need, and you've got what I want
Use your imagination'
Got that look in your eye's
So hard to disguise your situation

If it feels like a good thing,it's down to you girl
If it feels like a good thing, you know what to do
There's a hunger in me, I just can't seem to please,
And you've got the connections
Try not to fight, when the feeling is right,
Just move my direction

If it feels like a good thing,it's down to you girl
If it feels like a good thing, you know what to do
I know what I need and you got what I want,
Use your imagination
There's a hunger in me I just can't seem to please
Love starvation.
But if it feels, if it feels like a good thing
Feels allright, feels like a good thing.

FOLLOW THE NIGHT

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Robin McAuley)

Funny you understand so much
Where do you always find the time
The explanations I found
Are all based on solid ground
Can nobody get inside
I tried but I can't find
There must be a door somewhere
All I need is the key and I'm there
Better to leave it alone
Some things you do disturb me
Better to weather the storm
My thoughts so deep I cannot see

Follow the night, follow your dreams
Follow the signs
And all the things you've seen
Follow the night

Yeah' Find your fantasy
Follow the road that leads you straight to me
Confusion inside your head
You never know where to turn
Look for the space instead
Wonder how you can carry on
Patience is a lonely word
We never can have enough
The problems you can't ignore
Especially from the start
Better to leave it alone
Some things you do disturb me
Better to weather the storm
My thoughts so deep I cannot see

Never, never a moment lost
While the work is done
Time flies quickly past
Even for the most eager ones
The pain we must endure
It's not an easy task
To end what you're looking for
You simply have to ask

FOREVER AND MORE

(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Kelly Keeling) 5:43

She packed her bags
Headed for the station
It's five a.m. cold enough to slide
I looked around
There's no information
Where you are going
Are you safe tonight

Now the summer's gone
Don't know where you are
The hardest part is the love for you
Oh my love

Half way there
To the destination
Touchdown in Dallas
Staggers from the plane
She looks around
But he's not waiting
What has she done?

Now the summer's gone
Don't know where you are
The hardest part is the love for you

There's a letter written for you
Tell me how I can get through
What am I supposed to do your heart is in mine
And it's slowly beating
What happened to forever and more

All my friends say go away for a while
Down to the ocean where the air is clean
But I'm still waiting for a message from you
I'm still waiting

There's a letter written for you
Tell me how I can get through
What am I supposed to do your heart is in mine
And it's slowly beating
What happened to forever and more
Forever and more

Forever and more cont..

It's six a.m. the phone is ringing
I say hello is there anybody there?
If it's a dream I need to awaken
Where are you love?
I'm far away
The winter is here
You know what I fear
Can I see you?
Will you be on your way
I'm on my way

Here's a letter written for you
Don't know how I ever got through
What was I supposed to do your heart is in mine
And it's slowly beating
There's a letter written from you
Don't know how we ever got through
What are we supposed to do
Our hearts are together mine in yours
Forever and more
