1. Lie To Me
I didn't have to play detective with your words
I didn't have to look for clues
Your big mistake was that you chose
to speak at all
Now we'll play the game
And now you'll lose
[Chorus:]
Go on and tell me
What you feel
Make me believe
In what you see
Go on now, go on
Lie to me
It's gettin' hard to keep a smile from my face
It's gettin' hard to look at you
You've pushed your point until your
story's full of holes
It's one more turn
Of one more screw
[Chorus]
It seems your plans and schemes are
always falling through
Cause I hear everything
You never say
[Chorus]
2. Ten Seconds In
Out of the streetlights glare
There's a slight stab of fear
In his altered understanding
It quickly disappears
Can't spell electric
But he feels it in the air
Springing doors on darkened cages
That swing open in his stare
[Chorus:]
It's alright
On the street tonight, never realize
Always someone harder
Always someone just like you
Always someone harder
Till it's too late
And you're ten seconds in
Maybe down inside him
There's some neglected fuse
Some option long avoided
A circuit seldom used
With confrontation
Someone you never dare
Another life is less than zero
Violence a life-long love affair
[Chorus x2]
Black cat hangin' on the corner
Caught hangin' in the wrong
Almost screaming for attention
Must be well aware he don't belong
Sweating hard, in for the kill
Then something hits him like a train
Across the alley, it's forgotten
Just two more bullets in the rain
3. Get Tough
Walk the streets and take a test
Walk alone and place a bet
All these jackals cannot be friends
Those cries for help you'll never send
Slicing through you're so refined
Save your virtues and draw the line
They'll tell you stories of the wealth of crime
Resist temptation and pass em by
Are you rough enough
Are you rough enough
[Chorus:]
You better Get Tough
You better Get Tough
You better Get Tough
You better Get Tough
Through the flames you will arise
A vigilante through civilian eyes
Always there to save the race
Till someone stronger takes your place
Are you rough enough
Are you rough enough
[Chorus]
4. Razor's Edge
Gamblin' with my coastal love
But still I'm insincere
Entering the danger zone
To reach new heights of fear
[Chorus:]
You want it, go get it
Yes indeed
Livin' life on borrowed time
So live life dangerously
Catch me if you can
Livin' on the Razor's Edge
Stop me, if you can
I'm livin' on the Razor's Edge
Fast lane isn't fast enough
Don't cross that center line
They'll have to catch me if I'll hang
For steppin' out of line
[Chorus]
Playin' by the rules
Will never get you anywhere
When everything you've worked for
Has vanished in thin air
[Chorus]
5. Obsession
The clock strikes the midnight hour
I walk alone in pouring rain
A sudden glance, a brief encounter
I'm not alone for long
[Chorus:]
I see you, you hide behind hypnotic eyes
First glance beyond description
I'm mesmerized
I hear you, you're calling somewhere
in the night
A silent obsession, hiding out of sight
Body heat and eyes of fire
Not being one to look away
Mystique will bring us close together
Bring us together as one
[Chorus]
She holds the key to all unanswered
As in a myth from long ago
You beg release, her eyes say never
It's time that you should go
In deep silence, pressure's mounting
It's not a dream, you scream until
Your fantasy won't last forever.
But no one guarantees it will
6. Blood Money
Set sail to the Carribean
Lounging in the South of France
I hold you in such high esteem
When you provide the high finance
[Chorus:]
Don't give me dirty talk
Cause I don't want your love
I want your money . . . Blood Money
In your eyes I see a tear
The cold sweat if I break the bank
The borderline is growing near
With no one but myself to thank
[Chorus]
Investments made, I must insist
To call your bluff, tho' you resist
I live your world, invade your home
Then rob you blind and leave you cold
What was yours is mine
There's a name for this crime
Blood Money
If I want it, I'll just take it
I ain't beggin' for Blood Money
Take it away
Tension as the plot unfolds
I'm hanging by a thread again
Double-crossed by love gone cold
I've left your future in the red
[Chorus]
Investments made, I must insist
To call your bluff, though you resist
I'll live your world, invade your home
Then rob you blind and leave you cold
I'll take what I want
I'll take what I want
What was yours is mine
There's a name for this crime
Blood Money
7. Black And White
Hard to live
Hard to dream
Always turning
In circles it seems
Victimize
By outside force
You've got nothing
And nothing is yours
You're not blind
Easy to see
You're going nowhere
There's nowhere to be
You can change
Break the ice
I'm no genius
But I may have some advice
[Chorus:]
Listen to me
You're only Black and White
You've gotta try a little harder
You're only Black and White
You've gotta try a little
Harder to live
Harder to dream
Things are never
As bad as they seem
Make mistakes
Take a fall
Better wrong than to be
Nowhere at all
[Chorus x2]
Harder to live
Harder to dream
Gotta go and throw
A wrench in the scheme
Learn to live
Learn to die
You'll never have it
If you don't even try
[Chorus]
8. Behind Enemy Lines
A soldier boy in the line of fire
All illusions come tumbling down
Days on earth about to expire
Hope for freedom is shackled and bound
Racing toward a place you can hide
Fear prevents him from joining the fight
Honor and courage will stand by his side
Hearing the battle rage on in the night
[Chorus:]
Trapped once again
Caught behind enemy lines
Nightmares won't end
Tragedy can't be far behind
Reach for my hand
Together we'll break the ties that bind
Trapped once again
Caught behind enemy lines
Don't you hear them cry for you
Senseless slaughter sends thousands beyond
Nothing more than a pawn in their game
Forgotten souls that search for the dawn
Awakening to see more of the same
Realizing the fate that's in store
Time has come to turn and attack
As a unit we'll trample the foe
A time for rest, a time to turn back
[Chorus]
9. Wait For The Night
Unholy fighter summoned up for the cause
"Better never expire", he addresses his claws
Slide down real slow, they can be so vain
One less lonely night, you'll get the chance again
All the love and all the glory will be
gone with the dawn
[Chorus:]
Feels alright, wait for the night
Wait for the night to fall
Feels alright, wait for the night
Wait for the night to fall
In touch with reality but it isn't the same
All thoughts run free when they're in
the right frame
Such a worldly nature, see what money can buy
Feel so eccentric, never knew life could
be so kind
[Chorus]
You can have all you want, you can have
all you need
Never need to explain your reason for greed
[Chorus x2]
Unholy fighter summoned up for the cause
"Better never expire", he addresses his claws
Slide down real slow, they can be so vain
One less lonely night, you'll get the chance again
[Chorus x2]
Wait for the night
Wait for the night
Wait for the night
Wait for the night to fall
10. From The Heart
I don't know why you believe in me
I can't understand it at all
I hope that you'll be there for me
If we should happen to fall
[Chorus:]
Forever you're on our minds
Together we'll spread our wings and fly
The elements can't stop you
You never fail to show
No one goes unnoticed
We never fail to know
[Chorus]
I don't know why you believe in me
I can't understand it at all
We're there to hold each other
And we're not about to fall
[Chorus:]
Forever you're on our minds
Together we'll spread our wings and fly
Far away
From the heart
