On The Run
04:38
|

So you're crazy, just a bit contused
Can't be worse, had enough abuse
Gonna love it, it's a lot of fun
Ever tried Irvin' on the run?
Can't decide what I don't know
Time for something new
I might be right, but I don't know
Set my sights on you
On the run, livin' on the run
On the run, livin' on the run
So they say, steady wins the race
Need it fast, getting’ out of this place
Rockin' out to where I wanna be
Change your mind, well you know where I'll be

Christine
03:18

On the street, she waits for him, the time is getting right
Pulls out his key and then unlocks her door
With great anticipation, he drives into the night
Takes her where she's never been before
Cruising down State 90 at a hundred miles an hour
With a fury that could blow them off the road
She is on the loose tonight and he is on the prowl
Metal screaming from the radio
Fires up a cannon, he is on the bleed
Slams it into gear with no delay
He forgets his troubles when he gets behind the wheel
You'd be smart to stay out of his way
Hits the turn, rubber burns, smoke fills the air
They'll be lucky just to stay alive
Looking straight ahead, his palms are bathed in sweat
He slowly slides her into overdrive
Face reflects blue evil coming from the dashboard's glow
It you get a change, you'd better wish him well
On the road to paradise or on the road to hell
At times it seems he really doesn't know
Suddenly, he's kinda tense, his foot slams on the brake
Another hundred revs show on the tach
Wouldn't worry ‘bout it, it'll be his last mistake
She's got him and he's never coming back

Pretty Baby
03:51
|

Sexy lady, she's a beauty queen
Saw her picture in the pages of a magazine
In the doorway, pretty baby
Have it your way, pretty baby
She's got the razor's edge, she's really keen
She’s got the looks and the moves that you have never seen
Throw the switch, catch the lire
It's burning deep inside her eyes
In the doorway, pretty baby
Have it your way
Be my lady tonight
She's so hot, she'll take you to the wire
With bad intent, she's dealing in desire
Throw the switch, catch the fire
It’s burning deep inside her eyes
In the doorway, pretty baby
Have it your way, pretty baby
In the doorway, pretty baby
Have it your way
Be my lady tonight

Looking For Traces
04:32
|
|||
Covered the bases, heading for home
Trying to stay out of her sight
Saw a headlight gleaming off the edge of the chrome
From the corner of my eye
And I know she's watching me
Looking for traces in the night
But what does she want from me?
Better run and hide, run and hide
I might he turning the tables on you
So tonight you'd better beware
Keep looking over your shoulder all night
‘Cause this time, gonna be there
And I know she's watching me
Looking for traces in the night
But what does she want from me?
Better run and hide, run and hide
Run and hide
There won't be time to scream or to fight
When the cold steel touches the heart
Just a body left for the vultures above
Lyin' face down in the dark
And I know she's watching me
Looking for traces in the night
But what does she want from me?
Better run and hide, run and hide
Better run and hide

Illusions
04:07
|
|||
Impossible worlds, impossible dreams
Things don't appear as they seem, even in the night
Images seen are not totally clear
Hiding within from your fears in the candlelight
Young man, young man, well
You better make up your mind
Is it left or is it right?
Old man, old man, if it's logical in your eyes
Is it all within your sight?
In your hourglass you wait
To be covered by the sand
Why does help arrive loo late to save a dying man?
Young man, young man, in a world that's preconceived
Full of choices, black and white
Old man, old man, is it easy to be deceived
Is it wrong or is it right?
Illusions you can see, but never certain
Magic and misery, forever searching
I'm on the outside looking in
Can't tell the ceiling from the floor
From the shadows I can see
And I'm hopin' to find the door
From the shadows I can see
And I'm hopin' to find the door
In the candlelight

Breakin' Out
03:53
|
|||
It's been a long, hard switch
I wanna shut her down
Are you ready to go out on the town?
Workin' a nine to five ain't the biggest sin
The heat is risin' as the night begins
'Cause we're breakin' out and we're hungry for a fight
Gonna try to live a week in a single night
‘Cause we're breakin' out
Looking to do it right is my only vice
I need some red-hot action, you know the type
That's when I start to shake, I think of what's in store
I need to do - I need to see - just a little more
‘Cause we're breakin' out and we're hungry for a fight
Gonna try to live a week in a single night
‘Cause we're breakin' out
‘Cause we're breakin' out - yeah
Three a.m. by the clock on the wall
I like the early hours best of all
It's been a long hard night, don't wanna be alone
Come on baby, gonna take you home
'Cause we're breakin' out and we're hungry for a fight
Gonna try to live a week in a single night
‘Cause we're breakin' out - yeah
'Cause we're breakin' out and we're hungry for a fight
Gonna try to live a week in a single night
Yeah we're breakin' out

Overload
03:42
|
|||
Tell the world we're back, the deal is goin' down tonight
Gettin' ready to rock on the other side of town tonight
Spread the word, shout it loud, the band is coming back again
Moving fast, ain't the first, won't be the last time
The more the walls close in, the more that we explode
The pressure's rising to overload, we're gonna over
You’ll find out, there's no doubt we're gonna rock all night
Can you feel it in the air?
It’s the place to be all night
We're on fire, we're alive and we're burnin’ the place
Do you see it on the stage?
Are you keepin' the pace?
The more the walls close in, the more that we explode
The pressure's rising to overload, we're gonna overload
We’re gonna overload
Well, all right, we'll slay all night if we have to
‘Til we rock, ‘till we rock the roof right off the walls
We're gonna do it, we deliver what you want
You should know, you should know we got the balls

Pay The Price
03:56
|
|||
I've heard you can't go home again - I've heard many things
But it's seldom I believe what people tell me
I never stop to think that they might have something to say
I seldom buy what others try to sell me
Gotta give a little, if you're gonna take a lot
Can you learn to pay the price?
The risk of giving souls away to ones you'll never own
Is the same as taking candy from a stranger
‘Cause even those you love can leave you hanging on a line
The secret is to recognize the danger
Gotta give an inch for somebody else to take a mile
Maybe it's time to throw the dice
Gotta give a little if you're gonna take a lot
Can you learn to pay the price?
Pay the price
Can't slop until I take it, 'till take it all the way
Cause before you can believe, you gotta see
There's people making promises they're never gonna keep
You can't expect it all for free

Fight
03:32
|
|||
Not much of a night pretender
I play best in the heat of the day
Can't handle this mess I'm in
I'll take your best punches, I like it that way
Sometimes things go out of sync
Like a puzzle where the pieces don't fit
Tired of bangin' my head against the wall
Gotta fight to make it on my own
Got the right to go my way alone
Is it really snowing now?
I'm in this mood and it's always the same
There's a blizzard raging in me
Guess I've only got myself to blame
Sometimes life gets out of hand
It’s a common thing - you understand
Gonna hold it together after all
Gotta fight to make it on my own
Got the right to go my way alone
Not much of a night pretender
I play best in the heat of the day
Can't handle this mess I'm in
I’ll take all your punches, I love it that way
Sometimes things go out of sync
Like a puzzle where the pieces don't fit
Gonna hold it together after all

How Long
03:59
|
|||
You think that I'm holding you back
But you're not telling me why
Every time I try to get us on track, you wanna get high
Won't you listen to me? I got a lot to say
You don't have to lie
But you act like you don't hear me talking
And my words don't apply
How long will it take to make it?
How long do I have to wait?
Is something wrong, or am I just crazy?
Could it be that I learned too late?
I might be fast, but I can't keep up with your demands
You want me to get down on my knees
But I got other plans
I want it one-on-one, just for fun
But you won't play it that way
Calling me in the middle of the night with nothing to say
How long will it take to make it?
How long do I have to wait?
Is something wrong, or am I just crazy?
Could it be too late?
You’re never very far away
Don’t get close to me
‘Cause I won't control myself again
You're living dangerously
How long? How long? How long?
