Early in the morning when the sunlight burns
And the darkness cuts and the anger turns
There’s something on the edge of breaking down
Hanging on a feeling that makes me writhe
And the fear of being half alive
There’s something on the edge of breaking down
Time’s running, time’s running, you better watch your back
Time’s running, time’s running, darkness veils my knife attack
Children of the alleys march into the town
With anger in their hearts they bring curtains down
There’s something on the edge of breaking down
Time’s running, time’s running [x4]
Chasing after something that should never be
And the fear of knowing what the children see
There’s something on the edge of breaking down
Time’s running, time’s running, you better watch your back
Time’s running, time’s running, darkness veils my knife attack
I told you once just leave me alone
You're so hung up, your life's on the phone
Get me up just to let me down
Tie me up and slap me around
[Bridge:]
Bringin' me down, bringin' me down,
bringin' me down make it last all night
Bringin' me down, bringin' me down
Bringin' me down, I am all right BUT
[Chorus:]
You've got a problem [3x]
All shook up and ready for more
Your house has a revolving door
Got my coat and my fly
Look at me I'm such a macho guy
[Bridge/Chorus/Lead/Bridge/Chorus]
There's all too much for me to take
Bend me, shape me, watch me break
Drivin' sister, soft to the touch
But she's much too much on her clutch
[Bridge/Chorus 2x]
All shook up and ready for more
Your house has a revolving door
Got my coat and my fly
Look at me I'm such a macho guy
There's all too much for me to take
Bend me, shape me, watch me break
Drivin' sister, soft to the touch
But she's much too much on her clutch
Take a chance and believe in me, man
Rejoice the fact that you are free, man
Don’t divide or raise a fist
Just unite and question this
We don’t care if it’s a drag
Surrender now - raise the white flag
Think I’ve seen this once before, man
It’s something that I can’t ignore, man
Up against the crystal sky, man
Your sacred truth is just a lie, man
We don’t care if it’s a drag
Surrender now - raise the white flag
We don’t need your politics, man
When we’ve got our Pick 2 Stix, man
Why fight when you can sleep, man?
We won’t follow you like sheep, man
We don’t care if it’s a drag
Hands are strapped, my legs are bound
Face is pressed against the ground
Hear the sounds within the Earth
It’s breeding time and hell gives birth
Evil from beyond all time
Reclaiming what it left behind
Eyes of onyx burn and crack
Descending from the darkness veiled in black
Cthulu calling
Anger in its empty soul
An evil thrust out of control
A monolith of ancient crimes
Something savage, see the signs
Awakened from his ancient sleep
Cthulu calling from the deep
Calling me, this nightmare spawn
Holding back the golden rays of dawn
Cthulu calling
Madness at a mountain’s peak
Sky dissolves with burning heat
Space collapses in his path
I beckon him, I call his wrath
Sun goes down and then goes out
I face the hellion and I shout
Waves his claws, destroying light
Cthulu, now I offer you my life
In shrouded pain I watch the skies
For colors out of space and time
A fire burns within my eyes
Somewhere the harlots start to whine
Just like Glen Fafard said to me
What irons will enshackle White Flag shall set free
I hear the chimes of freedom crashing
From the bell tower to the ground
And clanging down the belfry’s steps
All humming till they make no sound
Just like Richard Sockey said to me
What irons will enshackle White Flag shall set free
I sit alone in my shuttered room
In darkness I don’t make a sound
These four walls are my only friends
I know they’ll always be around
Just like Steve McDonald said to me
What irons will enshackle White Flag shall set free
Support me in my hour of darkness
Hold me close, I feel your blade
Rigid steel pulses in lust
Release me from this hell I’ve made
Just like Rob Halford said to me
What irons will enshackle White Flag shall set free
Neon glow within your veins
Beneath the fear a love remains
A ray of hope enters my life
And casts a shadow like a knife
Just like G.B.H. said to me
Comin' down
Gettin' low
Feel the future
Starin' up from below
Look around
At the pain
Feel the answer
In my vein
[Chorus:]
No, no, no
Don't you ever do it to it
the answer it's not in a fix it kit
Chemical solution
When the going gets tough
YOU QUIT!
See them fall
See them crawl
On the floor
Wanting more
See them crave
Their it's slave
Turn to Todd
He will save
Moving target on the street
Protecting every citizen
Prowl the darkness, fight for right
Facing danger with a grin
Love the sound when you smash the glass?
Hate those killjoy L.A. cops?
Violence like Clockwork Orange
You’re all TV punker lops!
He’s the man with the shattered badge
Got all the courage you wish you had
Just like the punks, they’re not all the same
What if you called the cops and no-one came?
Risk their lives most everyday
Sure they can get out of hand
Power image can go too far
If you were one you might understand
Hate them till you need their help
Somehow I just don’t understand
Why we have to raise a fist
It takes a big man to extend a hand
He’s the man with the shattered badge
Got all the courage you wish you had
Just like the punks, they’re not all the same
Hey man, gimme your name
I've got a mailing list I wanna put you on
I said hey red, it's the end of your game
I'm gonna rocket you to a golden dawn
Yeah you, it's a great free land
Our first amendment guarantees it
Hey man, are you telling me
That in the Soviet Union you'd ever see it?
[Chorus:]
I've got two tickets for your paradise
So take 'em and listen to my advice
Just try and preach freedom and tell me how
They treat you in good old Moscow
Hey man, that's not a sickle
That's a big yellow question mark
That sits there at the end of the phrase
How can you lead when you're all in the dark?
[Bridge 1:]
You can join American Nazi Party
Join th N.A.A.C.P.
Sell your soul to the K.K.K.
And you don't have to worry 'bout the K.G.B.
[Chorus]
[Bridge 2:]
I know you say there's something missin'
Freedom of speech till rebels start to listen
I say "that's right, eliminate public danger"
We want answers not some communist rearranger
Love it or leave [4x]
Hey man, it's our free land
We don't need a preacher teachin' us to slave
And hey man, you're so blind
You can't see beyond the banner you wave
You failed at life, no reason to live
You've got nothing left to give
Socialist equality sound "really rad"
Be equally poor and equally sad
Go back to the U.S.
Back to the U.S.
There is a place
Where I can go
When I feel alone
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
I think of you
And things you do
Go 'round my head
The things you said
Like "I love only you"
In my mind there's no sorrow
Don't you know that it's so
There'll be no sad tomorrow
Don't you know that it's so
There is a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue
And it's my mind
And there's no time
When I'm alone
I'm of use to what I call friends
But that's where the emotion dies
I turn my collar against the cold
I'm growing old
Take me to your citadel
And wrap me in your coat of arms
Shield me from the hungry night
I feel alright
[Chorus:]
Gimme sanctuary, I need shelter
I'm no one's one, it's helter skelter
Stumble blind into the dark
Look for comfort in the pain
A bastion of another sort
Chameleon cast in any court
Crawl into the room like smoke
Craw out of the gloom with hope
They stand out like breaking glass
Their little lies are not opaque
It hurts me to admit I know it
An remain stoic
Pity is my favorite trait
I crumble to the beating heart
Alas, these arms that hold me tight
Just for tonight
Here he comes on a midnight ride
All in steel electraglide
All in black on an evil steed
Sword in hand can make you bleed
Chrome and glass a nightmare machine
Holding back reflects all he's seen
Riding fast with a wicked stride
To face the knight is suicide
[Chorus:]
Black knight-legend of the past
Black knight-watch out where the shadow's cast
Black knight-scream for vengeance, rant and rave
But you're not in control
You're a slave
Sun and steel, reflecting sheen
Moving target, flashing mean
Take his fist to break down walls
Waiting for the siren's calls
Dignity and knightly pride
In sixteen inches by his side
Swings his sword into the sky
A knight goes down, someone must die
[Chorus]
Face down on the freeway bank
Partner's gun is in your back
Where is all that knightly pride?
See your future in blue lights flash
I’ve live in my mind
I’ve walked the thin line
Between your and my reality
You think I’m crazy
My thoughts are hazy
But I’ve seen things that you only dream
You are afraid of me
You don’t like what you see
In your frustration you lock me away
But in the end you’ll see
It’s done no good for me
Because mentally I’m not even there
Tragic magic’s got a hold on me
Not the same, but can’t you see?
Something special’s what’s controlling me
This is my world, so let me be
Something special inside of my head
Don’t understand what you just said
Flip my had up in your face
I’m the future of a psycho race
And as our numbers grow
You will begin to know
There is a method to this sadness and madness
And though we seems insane
We all possess the same
Deep set ambition for we are all one
Screaming in agony
Laughing hysterically
Staring increasingly
This is our world
Fighting your memory
Feeding on sympathy
Preying on empathy
The plan is unfurled
Tragic magic’s got a hold on me
Not the same, but can’t you see?
Something special’s what’s controlling me
This is my world, so let me be
Something special inside of my head
Don’t understand what you just said
Flip my had up in your face
Gotta of rules about how to make it
Then you get up there and fake it
Got no convictions that’s my presumption of you
Gotta lot of complaints but no answers
Communist cause is a spreading cancer
Bunch of losers couldn’t make it in a capitalist world
Overlords of the underworld
Liars like I’ve never heard
Leaders preaching leaderlessness
That’s you!
Intimidate kids that don’t understand
Got them eating out of the palm of your hand
Mass deception, that’s my perception of you
All you want is a piece of my action
You’re so jealous, want satisfaction
Go to hell you communists, socialists too
Fuck you!
Overlords of the underworld
Liars like I’ve never heard
Leaders preaching leaderlessness
That’s you!
[x2]
Communist punks [x3]
Well, I’m looking up at you
Pulling out my hair
Cos you’re up there singing songs
No one seems to care
We don’t come here to dance
No one’s here for you
Long hair and shiny pants
You make us want to puke
Feeling not all right
My line, told to die
So hard not to unwind
Find some wall to climb
Capsules cover the signs
My thoughts in a land mine
Too late to answer lies
Don't even need to try
Living in a fury
Life's kinda blurry
Dying in a hurry
Stories kinda lurid
No time to worry
Gonna hang the jury
Broke up kinda early
All the scribes are working
Living in a fury
Life's kinda blurry
Dying in a hurry
Stories kinda lurid
No time to worry
Gonna hang the jury
Broke up kinda early
All the bribes are working
Feeling not all right
My line told to die
Capsules cover the signs
My thoughts in a land mine
Slowed away outta breath
Won't wait to pass the test
Too late to answer lies
Don't even need to try
Living in a fury
Life's kinda blurry
Dying in a hurry
Stories kinda lurid
No time to worry
Gonna hang the jury
Broke up kinda early
All the scribes are working
Living in a fury
Life's kinda blurry
Dying in a hurry
Stories kinda lurid
No time to worry
Gonna hang the jury
Broke up kinda early
Kids on the street, running from heat
Drinking, thrashing, think it’s neat
A dancing smashing wrecking crew
Is that what punk rock means to you?
Men in black and men in blue
Desperate for something to do
Are they just bored or is it work?
You can be a cop without being a jerk
Here come lil’ friskies - All marching in a line
But who’s to say we’re not to blame?
Youth, the eternal crime
Fifteen and you’re shooting speed
Hope you like the life you lead
So sure you’re doing nothing wrong
Too high to understand this song
Throwing rocks at passing cars
No wonder why the shows all stop
Drunk in public, got no class
You can be a punk without being an ass
Here come lil’ friskies - All in their riot gear
They call us freaks, they call us fags
But one in ten’s a queer
Better watch out, don’t get busted in Frisco
They slap the cuffs and whip out the Crisco
Kids in the parking lot drinking beer
Is a thrill or numbing fear?
Taking loads and getting dusted
Don’t understand why you get busted
Don’t know if there’s any hope
The cops end up with the best dope
I still dream of a world of peace
Cause punks are human just like police
Here come lil’ friskies - All marching in a line
But who’s to say we’re not to blame?
I wanna be like Ace Frehley
Smash my Delorean into cars
And know that I’ve got so much cash
I’ll never end up behind bars
I’ve got my own phone in my room
A stupid thing I really hate
Because it always rings too loud
And wakes me up when I sleep late
I’ve got nice clothes that ought to be tailored
So that they would fit just right
So I can sit in my cube in the latest fashions
Without any money to go out at night
Middle class hell
It’s hard for you to tell
Middle class hell
I want it all and more
Middle class hell [x2]
Parents, they don’t understand
Their kids get what they can’t afford
Try and live beyond their means
They’re fooling themselves, and it makes me bored
Give us gifts that cost a lot
Then rub it in for ever more
I don’t care if you broke your back to get it
What else did you have kids for?
I get frustrated, man, I can’t work
I’m not happy and I won’t repent
I’m a malcontent, man, I want more
The kind of person that you resent
I wanna walk on Gucci, wear Yves St. Laraunt
I stole that line as you can tell
I need to climb that great big ladder
Cos I’m dying here in middle class
Middle class hell
It’s hard for you to tell
Middle class hell
I want it all and more
Middle class hell [x2]
I know what you’re thinking
Poor little rich kid, ain’t got it so bad
Well, let me tell you there’s more to living
Than sitting around with the latest fad
And suffering for the phony image
Of luxury, and high class style
Can’t you see, man, I’ve got nothing
You can’t judge poor by a factory smile
Middle class hell
It’s hard for you to tell
Middle class hell
I want it all and more
[x2]
We’re cowboys from inner Earth
Giving you a sense of worth
I need a piece of pocket change
When I’m riding on the range
Associates of dramatic stance
Tight fisted, leather pants
Prince of Darkness shudders cold
When he feels my tightened hold
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Picture this, I’m a falling tower
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Wake me up for the meteor hour
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Picture this, I’m a falling tower
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Wake me up for the meteor hour
Don’t wanna be a cop but that’s okay
Darkness hides where night becomes grey
Don’t wanna be a Nazi and conform
But I admit I hate all uniforms
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Picture this, I’m a falling tower
P’nee-mee - P’nee-mee
Wake me up for the meteor hour
[The verses below are listed on the LP insert]
Ground my diamonds into dust
And left them in the rain to rust
And stepped inside my guitar case
And voided out of time and space
Ladies lure me over the fence
Their acts of love make no sense
My choice is made the road is hard
I will succumb to the Trish card
I’m afraid, but I’ll be alright
I know she only smokes at night
The fence is down, my P’s and Q’s
Again I fall to will of shrews
Riding on a subway train
The passengers think I’m insane
They’re riding on their way to work!
Standing on the corner
Waiting on your man
Need it quick or you’ll get sick
He’s got you in his hand
Loaded!
You’re just a strung out fool
Makes you feel like Jesus, son?
Man, thunder ain’t so cool
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Hello to nowhere fast
You keep messing up your mind
How long do you think you’ll last?
Waiting!
Six gun in my hand
I believe in mercy killing
I knew you’d understand
Jonesing!
I’m gonna help you score
My syringe is full of lead
Never been this high before
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Hello to nowhere fast
You keep messing up your mind
How long do you think you’ll last?
Ready…
I got a job to do
Gonna stick my gun into your mouth
And give my load to you
You were young, you were told
Heaven’s streets are paved with gold
Excuse me if I stop and stare
If that’s so great, why aren’t you there?
Look around, see the signs
Of losing touch, losing minds
Race is over, time has won
Now take my hand, c’mon, c’mon
Kill yourself [x4]
Sun goes down, then goes out
Hope escapes without a shout
Darkness veils the curtain call
Into the void our futures fall
Crack the sky, onyx flares
Stars called home, horizon tears
In the dark before the dawn
Now take my hand, c’mon, c’mon
Kill yourself [x4]
Tides of cold, shards of steel
Mountains fade, sardonic teal
Face the agony of doom
And crawl into your velvet tomb
You were young, you were told
Not to fear growing old
Now the troops of time march on
Now take my hand, c’mon, c’mon
Down here in Hell’s Kitchen
A million miles from home
Where smiles are faked, Government cracked
This crowd, I feel alone
Down here on the dark side
Where the concrete pylons grow
Like tombstones with a rooftop
Come watch the river flow
Wish I was back in Hollywood
With the junkies and the losers and fakes that I call friends
You never feel alone in Hollywood
Content to be a failure cuz you’ve never even tried
You tell me to abandon hope - It’s useless, I’m alive!
Maturity’s no virtue in my sardonic dream
How could this world abide me when it can’t hear me scream?
I’m not your instant breakfast
I won’t be your Sunday fool
My life’s a feeling frenzy
With the copyright on cool
No, I’m alive
Yeah, I’ll survive
I can’t explain the politics of your affair
You call me immature, but hey man, I don’t care
But now I can see what it is that you do fear
Oh yeah, to me it’s yourself is what’s so unclear
Leave me life, diffuse this mortal coil
To you I leave this final thought
My spirit’s body, your spoil
No, I’m alive
Yeah, I’ll survive
I will not fight this
I pray for numbness evermore
I will not fight this
I will not pick my body off the floor
My hanging tree is blooming with the coming of the Yule
I always thought a crucifix was something wicked cruel
Dimension of insanity - a never ending race
With elder gods descending out of time and out of space
I will not fight this
I pray for numbness evermore
I will not fight this
I will not pick my body off the floor
Holidays are strange things
We’re hanging things
Gotta brand new thing that's sweepin' the nation
A new improved video sensation
Gives you everything that you'll ever need
A fanzine for people who don't even know how to read
Now there's something worthwhile on t.v.
Unplug that cable put on channel three
Get the vcr you can hardly wait
To sit back on the couch get ready to vegetate
[Chorus:]
Flipside [4x]
Forget about the world and impending doom
Every band you've wanted's in your living room
Got the Flipside video it's wild as can be
The sun goes down, the blizzard wails
Eliminate the snowy trails
Half a flask still at my side
To keep me warm along the ride
The tunic worn, the color red
Another man that I shot dead
I feel the icy wind inside
I ride to live, I live to ride
Long riders, wild and free
Saddle up, R.C.M.P.
Never wed, not in the plan
But I always get my man
Long riders, wild and free
Saddle up, R.C.M.P.
Never wed, not in the plan
But I always get my man
No quarter horse
An Aral steed
A trusted mount
A friend in need
The shiny boots
The way they feel
The horse’s flank
Against the heel
The tunic worn, the color red
Another man that I shot dead
I feel the icy wind inside
I ride to live, I live to ride
Long riders, wild and free
Saddle up, R.C.M.P.
Never wed, not in the plan
The sun is out, my lips are red
Another town is up ahead
Grab a shot and choke it down
Flee from the site without a sound
The dusty trail and U.S. mail
The desert haze and cactus
Got a job that I must do
If I don’t die before I’m through
Long riders, dying breed
Leather pouch is all I need
Got a job that must be done
Ride away into the sun
[x2]
The sun is set, I’ve won my bet
Lived through the day, collect my pay
I’ll saddle up next time in town
So I can bring the mail down
The dusty trail and U.S. mail
The desert haze and cactus
Got a job that I must do
If I don’t die before I’m through
Long riders, dying breed
Leather pouch is all I need
Got a job that must be done
I hear a lot of talk’s been going round town
Getting crazy, you’ve been running downtown, oh no, no, no
I don’t care what they say
And I don’t care what you do
Getting loose, it’s all up to you
Then I hear you’re messing with things you don’t know
Getting strung out solo down in Soho, oh no, no, no
I don’t care what they say
And I don’t care what you do
Getting loose, it’s all up to you
You don’t even look the same (Hey!) [x3]
You don’t even look, no!
I don’t care what they say
And I don’t care what you do
Getting loose, it’s all up to you
You don’t even look the same (Hey!) [x3]
You don’t even look, no!
Hey, White Flag
You know we love to please
A manufactured image
With no philosophies
We hope you like our story
Although there isn't one
That is to say there's many
That way there is more fun
You tell us you like action
And games of many kinds
We like to dance, we like to sing
And let's all lose our minds!
It really doesn't matter
Cause what you came to see
Is what we'd love to give you
And give it one, two, three!
But there may come three, two, one, two
Or jump from nine to five
And when you see the end in sight
The beginning may arrive!
For those who look for meanings
In form as they do facts
We might tell you one thing
But we'd only take it back
Not back like in a box back
Not back like in a race
Not back so we can keep it
Not back in time and space!
You say we're manufactured
To this we all agree
So make you choice and we'll rejoice
In never being free!
Hey, White Flag
We've said it all before
Your money's in, we're cashing in
We're here to reach for more!
Your money's in, we're cashing in
Get up and get your grandma outta here
Pick up - Old Jim is working hard this year
And baby - do the things he says to do
Do it!
And baby, if you're feeling good
And baby, if you're feeling nice
You know your man is working hard
He's worth a deuce
Honey, don't put your man behind his years
And baby - Stop crying all your tears
And baby - do the things he says to do
Do it!
And baby, if you're feeling good
And baby, if you're feeling nice
You know your man is working hard
He's worth a deuce
And baby, if you're feeling good
And baby, if you're feeling nice
I'll make you crawl
I'll make ya so sad you were mine
I'll make you stall
And, honey, I'm sure that you will find
I'm telling you
I don't let go until I'm through
I'll make you cry
I'll make you wish that you could die
I wanna be your demolition girl
A demolition girl
[all the above x2]
Being a star's like being a junkie
You ain't got the needle but you
still have the monkey
Living your life from show to show
If it's day or night you don't even know
Friends ask why you do it
X-friends think that you blew it
They don't think you have a care
They don't know what it's like up there
[Chorus:]
Star crossed, you lose
Star crossed, you chose
Star crossed, make me a star
Star crossed, fall down in a bar
Star crossed [4x]
Have to take drugs to get up or down
No mind control, be pushed around
I can't believe this state I'm in
Could life be clear through a bottle of gin?
I tried my hand at love once
All the pieces didn't fit
So I gave it all up
Traded it for a fix it kit
You trapped me with your starry eyes
Coaxed me with your thunder thighs
Can't you see I'm just a priest
Not gonna be your piece of meat
[Chorus:]
Celebate [4x]
I just joined a momestary
Parents think that I'm a fairy
I'm not worried what they think
They don't know that love's a jinx
I tried my hand at love once
All the pieces didn't fit
So I gave it all up
Traded it for a fix it kit
Something that I gotta say
See it as it all comes down
Ending of our child-like dreams
If you don’t believe me look around
Growing old, I just can’t take it
Sometimes I don’t feel alive
I feel no pain, freon flowing through my vein
On the wall, down the hall, I fade out
No pain, no pain, echoes like electric train
Standing tall, watch it fall, silent shout
No way to stay, nothing left to fade away
End of line, nursery crime, no way out
You scream, I dream, out of phase and in between
Shadows shine, make it mine, you fade out
[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like my friends
they all let me down, gone underground
Sometimes I feel like my friends
all let me down, gone underground
I call you crawl, something like an iron wall
Smash it up, burn it down, it fades out
Sideshow you play, sideways in electric phase
Turn my black, knife attack, there's no doubt
Burn black, turn back, fire like a maniac
Fix your head, run instead, don't work it out
Split fire, hot wire, memory of a constant liar
Close my eyes, fantasize, you fade out
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Emptied out my arms and you say
"No-no! I never will believe it"
Built your house of cards
but you think it's all right
Hiding in the night
Sheltered from the light
That you know would make you turn to dust
All pain, all pain, neon lightning in my brain
Shattered lines, end of times, in my eyes
You turn, now learn, scribing let the letters burn
Fill this space -------- then erase, all your lies
1-2-3-4, everybody's gotta score
Lonely friend, come to me, sweet white angel
5-6-7-8 who keeps moving heaven's gate?
Need some more, always more, just to get there
[Chorus]
never fall in love with a vampire
We’re anarchy in its purest state
You’re so punk you can’t relate
All you do is stand and stare
Your life rotates around your hair
We personify the chaos dream
A contradictory regime
We intimidate and invoke fear
Cause you believe the truth is here
No, this isn’t civil war, this is just our stance
But because you disagree you won’t give us a chance
You wear the sign of anarchy
This is what it means to me
When punks become the establishment
I’d say our kind was heaven sent
You want to lead in every scene
You criticize us in your ‘zine
Your politics are just as bad
You wish you had the guts we had
No, this isn’t civil war, this is just our stance
But because you disagree you won’t give us a chance
Anarchy is no solution
We won’t fight your revolution
You’re just a power hungry punk
A politician when you’re drunk
No values? Well, that’s just bunk
I guess you wrote the book on punk
And you’ve sure got a lot of rules
Now decide, who are the fools?
No, this isn’t civil war, this is just our stance
Middle of a dogfight
Every man to his guns - We’re going in boys
Middle of a dogfight
Well, I can’t take the heat, but I sure like the noise
One time we walked to the other side
We took the time down to die
But you can’t understand
What I mean when I say
I need to make it hurt
You turn to me and start to dive
Middle of a dogfight
Every man to his guns - We’re going in boys
Middle of a dogfight
Well, I can’t take the heat, but I sure like the noise
I look around at a starry sky
I want to punch out every one
Well, I can’t understand
What it means when you say
Lightning is our life
I closed the gates to kingdom come
Middle of a dogfight
Every man to his guns - We’re going in boys
Middle of a dogfight
Well, I can’t take the heat, but I sure like the noise
Sometimes I feel I’m the only one
Who sees the world falling apart
When I look in the mirror, man, I wanna smash
And let the pieces fall
And stick the glass right in my heart
Middle of a dogfight
Every man to his guns - We’re going in boys
Middle of a dogfight
Well, I can’t take the heat, but I sure like the noise
