TONY MARTIN LYRICS

1. Raising Hell

Back in time there’s a place in the future
Close your eyes and you’ll see what I mean
Big Brother has turned into Sister
And the Kingdom is run by a Queen

The ground that you stand on is Heaven
And nothing you can do is wrong
There’s a bullet out there with your name on
But there’s no one out there with a gun

Life goes around in circles
Lucifer wished me well
Just as I got it down
He’s raising Hell, raising Hell

There’s fire coming out of the forest
Free people are being set free
Deo Volente, we may all survive
To kill everything that we see

Life goes around in circles
Lucifer wished me well
Just as I it got it down
He’s raising Hell, raising Hell
He’s raising Hell

I’m burning up with fire
Lucifer wished me well
Just as I got it down
He’s raising Hell

Hear the voice of your conscience is screaming
Do you listen or do you turn back
There’s no gold at the end of the rainbow
All the colours have run into black

Life goes around in circles
Lucifer wished me well
Just when I got it down
He’s raising Hell, raising Hell

Raising Hell, oh yeah, here he comes, raising Hell
You better look out, look out, look out
Cos he’s raising Hell
He’s throwing a party for everyone around
You better look out, cos he’s raising hell

And he wished me well

2. Bitter Sweet

I say to all you people
You think that life is pretty neat
But I can tell you people
That you are wrong if you believe
You think that there’s a heaven
And you think that there’s a hell
You’ll swear that you hear voices
Because that’s what the voices tell

Do you see this world as paradise, or
Do you think that god is responsible, for all
The tears that’s fallen

I gotta tell you people
That it’s all in your mind
All the love and hatred
It’s a product of mankind
You’ve got to live together
Knowing that there’s an end
Because there is no heaven
And all that’s left is hell

Something is missing
Let these words sink into your mind
Something is missing
Could it be the faith you keep alive

Oh we are, we are believers
What stand between us
The evil night, that’s right
The hate remains the fear of dying
No point in lying
That’s bitter sweet, bitter sweet

Oh we are, we are believers
What stand between us
That’s bitter sweet, bitter sweet

3. Faith In Madness

I thought that you was my friend
But now it’s the end
I’m tired of being alone
What did I do wrong

Don’t walk away, can’t stand the pain
You know it’s true, I put my trust in you
Don’t understand
I tried to change, you’re playing games
I put my faith in madness

I thought that our love was true
But it was a lie
God knows I can’t close my eyes
Please let this dark house shine

Don’t walk away, can’t stand the pain
You know it’s true, I put my trust in you
Don’t understand
I tried to change, you’re playing games
I put my faith in madness

Words of reason just bring pain
I tried to tempt the dying flame
Give me back my shattered life
And I’ll believe again
But when I hear the sound of screams
I feel the twisted evil dreams
Prayers and curses become the same
And I believed in vain

I put my faith in things you said
I put my faith in the trust we had
I put my faith in faithfulness
I put my faith in madness
No, no

Is that truth that’s screaming set me free
In coils of misery, that slowly curls around me
Is that death, it’s strange that I can’t tell
It doesn’t seem like hell
Everything is still and silent

4. I'm Gonna Live Forever

You could take my hands, you could take my feet
So that I can’t touch you and we can’t meet
You could hate my brain, you could blind my eyes
You could leave me out in the sun to fry

You could drain my blood, you could steal my soul
You could tear my heart out before I’m cold
You might think you’re big, and it may be true
But when you’ve done all the things that you can do

I’m gonna live forever, live forever
I’m gonna leave my mark on you
Live forever, live forever
Everything you say, everything you do
Live forever, live forever
You’re gonna see my face, you’re gonna hear my name
Live forever, live forever
I will return, I will return

Call me weak, I won’t retaliate
I can do much better, cause I don’t need hate
You could say I’m stupid, you could call me a joke
But when you eat those words I’m gonna watch you choke

You could slander my name, you could call me fool
And those that stand beside you could be just as cruel
But it doesn’t matter, you wanna know why
Cause if I’m dead or alive, here’s what I’ll do to you

I’m gonna live forever, live forever
I’m gonna leave my mark on you
Live forever, live forever
Everything you say, everything you do
Live forever, live forever
You’re gonna see my face, you’re gonna hear my name
Live forever, live forever
I will return, I will return

You could take my life, you could change my words
You could throw it all away
If love has gone, it’s almost done
I’ll take one more breath before I die

Live forever, live forever
I’m gonna leave my mark on you
Live forever, live forever
Everything you say, everything you do
Live forever, live forever
You’re gonna see my face, you’re gonna hear my name
Live forever, live forever
I will return, I will return

5. Scream

Yesterday I heard you say
You’d give your soul to have your way
Thrice you wished it, twice you pleaded
Once you vowed and knelt to pray
Seven times I heard you promise
Seven time you called in vain
Your wish is granted, the devil signed it
And now I’m riding to make you pay

I know that your soul has had enough of crying
And I’m here to free you and take your pain away

Scream, if you hear my machine
It’s a terrifying dream
There’s no time to hide
I’m right beside you
Scream, if you hear my machine
Then your soul will ride with me
Back into forever, everlasting night

Faint and broken spirit crying
Life and soul on borrowed time
Spent your life in search of pleasure
Those you hurt are friends of mine

I know that your soul has had enough of crying
And I’m here to free you and take your pain away

Scream, if you hear my machine
It’s a terrifying dream
There’s no time to hide
I’m right beside you
Scream, if you hear my machine
Then your soul will ride with me
Forever

Scream, if you hear my machine
It’s a terrifying dream
There’s no time to hide
I’m right beside you
Scream, if you hear my machine
Then your soul will ride with me
Back into the everlasting night
Where the only light is from Satan’s eyes

Oh, gonna ride forever
Tonight you’re mine!

6. Surely Love Is Dead

Remember that feeling as you walk through the door
And you wonder what’s out on the other side
There’s no way back, once you’ve left me for sure
There’ll be someone else taking your place tonight

Remember this look that you see in my eyes
I’ll make sure I forget you and I won’t forgive
There’s times that I thought I could stand all the lies
But I soon realised there’s much more than this to find

I wasted so much time, now it’s at an end
Surely love is dead

Reflections of you, they still drift through my mind
But I will find a way to burn them out
It took too much time to find out you’re not my kind
And I soon realised there’s much more than this to find

I wasted so much time, now it’s at an end
Surely love is dead
Surely love is dead
Surely love is dead

Love’s forever lost, your heart is cold and love is dead
Love’s forever lost, your heart is cold and love is dead

7. The Kids Of Today (Don't Understand The Blues)

What’s this, I can’t tell
The kind of music that makes me mad
I don’t want it, not this
I can’t stand it, get it off my deck
I don’t need this sound
I don’t like it playing in my car
I can’t drive with this
It’s not gonna take me very far

Tuned down, turned up
Flashed out on a Marshall stack
I survived on stuff like that

Fast songs, fast life
Fast women never slowed me down
Boy bands, girl bands
Mass creation for a tired land

Tuned down, turned up
Flashed out on a Marshall stack
I survived on stuff like that

The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
They don’t understand the blues

Beat bop, hip hop, r ‘n’n b and all that jazz
Fake world, take mine
Those who haven’t, and those who have

Tuned down, turned up
Flashed out on a Marshall stack
I survived on stuff like that

The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
They don’t understand the blues

The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
The kids of today they don’t understand
They don’t understand the blues

They don’t understand

8. Wherever You Go

When I lie you down with me
I can feel you breathing
When I feel you shudder and shake
I imagine what you’re dreaming

I wanna come with you
To the land where you are

I can’t believe we came so far
I can’t believe the luck I was given
And just to hold you in my arms
The things I would have given

And I will feel your kiss wherever I go
And I will come with you wherever you go
Ever you go

9. Field Of Lies

In the field of lies there are too many falling
Because of the words you say
With every sentence you speak
Another soul stands to take their place

Wake up
And see the world for what it really is
Some people you will never change, no
Wake up
And see your lies for what they truly are
Another mother cries her tears
On the field of lies

Oh, the world has fallen on evil days
You got an eager hand in evil ways
Seems the pen is mightier than the sword
How many lives did you sign away

Wake up
And see the world for what it really is
Some people you will never change, no
Wake up
And see your lies for what they truly are
Another mother cries her tears
On her poor boy’s grave

Ain’t no prayer gonna save
Gotta keep the truth alive
Somebody save my child
Please, save my child

You, Lords of ancient songs
Think of those you trampled on and sent away to die
You, putting on your graces
You don’t see the faces of the dying as they cry

Wake up
And see the world for what it really is
Some people you will never change, no
Wake up
And see your lies for what they truly are
Another mother cries her tears
On her poor boy’s grave

Wake up
And see the world for what it really is
Some people you will never change, no
Wake up
And see your lies for what they truly are
Another mother cries her tears
On her poor boy’s grave

10. Unbearable

[Japanese Bonus Track]

In the beginning it seemed kinda cool you know
I thought this is the place I´d really wanna be
So I lived here but then I got to think

You got no respect for the things I do
You got no respect for the things I say
You got no respect for the way I walk
You got no respect for the way I talk
You got no respect for that power drive
You got no respect for the things I like
You got no respect for my respect
It was makin´ life unbearable

You´re makin´ my life unbearable
Makin´ my life unbearable
You´re makin´ my life unbearable oh yeah

So I thought how am I gonna turn this ´round
I kinda liked it at first but now I´m not too sure
I don´t like the things that´s going on so I´ve got to think

You got no respect for the things I do
You got no respect for the things I say
You got no respect for the way I walk
You got no respect for the way I talk
You got no respect for that car drive
You got no respect for the things I like
You got no respect for my respect
You´re just makin´ life unbearable

You´re makin´ my life unbearable
Makin´ my life unbearable
You´re makin´ my life unbearable oh yeah

So I decided to end it all
I´m not staying where I´m not wanted
I gotta get out of here I´m goin´ far away
As far as I can get from you ´coz I got to think

You got no respect for the things I do
You got no respect for the things I say
You got no respect for the way I walk
You got no respect for the way I talk
You got no respect for my friends
You got no respect for the end
You got no respect for my respect
Go makin´ life unbearable

Makin´ my life unbearable makin´ my life unbearable
You´re makin´ my life unbearable oh yeah
