"Satellite Blues"

"Satellite Blues"



Hey you, you're walking down a New York street
Feel the tension in the midday heat
You're walking on blood
TV, it's all there on a Japanese screen
East, West, there's no in between
Now, we just love "The Reds"

Everything is now because the past is dead
You've got to look forward if you want to get ahead
What kind of person sells a young person drugs?
You bring them up good but don't call them thugs
Third world stories, well they make the news
It's a five minute wonder, call it...

Satellite blues
Any way the wind blows

Dive, dive! Underground is just the place to be
So cool, it keeps the city clean
Now walk on by

I said "Walk, walk, don't run!"
Don't you know you've got to follow the signs?
This life's so cruel, so cruel to be kind
It's a one-way street

You've got to live on the edge just to make a big deal
This life's big fun, man, it's like a roulette wheel
What kind of world would let these children die?
There's so much money we could all retire
We could all live happily if we choose
But it's a five minute wonder, call it...

Satellite blues
Any way the wind blows

"Shadow Of A Doubt"

"Shadow Of A Doubt"



Words trip from my tongue
Saying "be strong, always be strong"
Scenes flash past my eyes
Telling me here is where we belong

If you believe, what I believe
Then we're home,
Yeah, we're home

I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
Your feminine mentality
Reveals the things I cannot see
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
The danger signs have left my mind,
It's way beyond a
SHADOW OF A DOUBT

So, it won't be long
Stay with me now, this can't be wrong
It's our right, to fly to the stars
Just for one night, this world is ours

If you believe what I believe
Then we're home
Yeah, we're home

I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
Your feminine mentality
Reveals the things I cannot see
I should have seen it coming
I could have worked it out
The danger signs have left my mind,
It's way beyond a
SHADOW OF A DOUBT

"Showdown"

"Showdown"



She cried to the southern wind
About a love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
Headin' for a showdown

Bad dreamer, what's your name
Looks like we're ridin' on the same train
Looks as though there'll be more pain
There's gonna be a showdown

And it's rainin all over the world
It's raining all over the world
Tonight, the longest night

She came to me like a friend
She blew in on a southern wind
Now my heart is turned to stone again
There's gonna be a showdown

Save me, oh save me
It's unreal, the suffering
There's gonna be a showdown

And it's rainin all over the world
It's raining all over the world
Tonight the longest night

"Silent Nation"

"Silent Nation"



Shake the hand of time
With the builders of stone
Are you recognized?
You're not going home

Have to find a hideaway
So turn up the neighbors
The eagle is listening today

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation

No longer have a name
A number will do
Cutting the wires of doom
'Cos they're watching you

Raging in thought
Mouthless, the millions obey
So call off your dogs
You preachers of what we can say

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation
In a silent nation
We must change what has been done
It's a travesty
Silent nation

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
In a silent?

"Sleeping Giant / No Way Back / Reprise"

"Sleeping Giant / No Way Back / Reprise"



Push forward again, I reach the
Point of zero return
No condemnation remains
No more bridges to burn

A hell of a deal, to keep what I feel inside
There's nowhere to run, there's nowhere to hide,
And there's
NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK
NO WAY BACK

A progressive disease
Takes me out of the door
That's when I grab the keys, and I,
I slam my foot to the floor

Step on the gas, smash through the barricade
I'm closing my eyes, cause I don't wanna see, 'cos there's
NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK
NO WAY BACK

Keep on working the room
And the end is in sight
Something unknown propels me now
Leading me to the light

I got to be free it's life on the edge for me
The harder it gets, the harder I try...and there's
NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK
NO WAY BACK

You're going too far, way over the line
You're raising the bar, no soft landing this time
We stand on the edge, this time is sink or swim
We're spreading out wing and we're learning to fly
...and there's
NO WAY BACK, NO WAY BACK
NO WAY BACK
NO WAY BACK

It's life on the edge for me

"Sole Survivor"

"Sole Survivor"


When I ran from the hounds of hell
Twist my foot, I nearly fell
I was lucky I was alive
One look back I could have died

[Chorus:]
I was the sole survivor
Sole survivor
Sole survivor
Solitary fighter

When I saw it I was amazed
One time glory right in my gaze
I saw the sorrow, I saw the joy
Right in the darkness none could destroy

[Chorus]

And from the wreckage I will arise
Cast the ashes back in their eyes
See the fire, I will defend
Just keep on burning right to the end

[Chorus]

"Someday"

"Someday"



Don't want to live in another world
Don't want to dream of another girl
That's the way it was meant to be

I couldn't sleep through the lonely night
I just cried till the morning
It's not the way it was meant to be

Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love my shine on you
Someday you may find the one

You didn't leave me, you ran away
Couldn't face what you had to say
It's not the way it was meant to be

Now you can live in your other world
Me, I've found me another girl
And that's the way it was meant to be

When I dream, I dream of one world
But I know there's no such place
If I could ever find that one girl
In my world, in my world

"Summer"

"Summer"


Her fingers feel the air
The mantle now so bare
From green then into brown
Lie scattered all around
We hope they will return
Like those before did learn
Now that their summer's gone
We have to carry on

Till we rise, I just can't wait
Now tell me, who are you
To judge my fate?

[Chorus:]
Oh, the rain burns on
Now that summer's gone
Oh, the wind blows strong
Now that summer's gone

Across the fields we ran
To emerald castles, banned
By rule of modern man
Who built a winterland
Then as the seasons change
He'll fly and hide away
Above a cloud of words
On wings of gold I heard

We must rise, it's not too late
Now tell me, who are you
To change our fate?

[Chorus]

"Summer (Can't Last Too Long)"

"Summer (Can't Last Too Long)"



I'm looking at your photograph The picture on my wall
Life's too short for memories I can't have it all

You gave me the run-around So we go our own sweet ways
I'll be making the most of summertime Crazy nights and lazy days

Summer Can't Last Too Long Summer Can't Last Too Long
Spring, Winter or Fall But out of them all
The Summer Can't Last Too Long

One night can seem a lifetime And I've got no more time to lose
Sunshine on my shoulders Kissing away my blues
Looking to the future Searching for the girl
Not too much like the last one Just the prettiest in the world

Summer Can't Last Too Long Summer Can't Last Too Long
Spring, Winter or Fall But out of them all
The Summer Can't Last Too Long

Yeah, yeah

"Suspicion"

"Suspicion"



Where were you yesterday?
I called you up
No one answered

The phone rings now
All the time
I pick it up
No one answers

I know it seems like I just can't go ahead
Sometimes it's like holding a gun to my head
I get the green light but I'm still seeing red
Something I can't stand

Suspicion
Suspicion

In the park, yesterday
I saw a face that spelled danger
A friendly smile, a worried look
I mistook for a stranger

I keep on fighting and I know I can't win
Something's biting me I'll never give in
Coming back to me again and again
The message in my hand

Suspicion
Suspicion

Eating away at me, it won't let go
Suspicion is following, everywhere I go
He walks before me, he's someone that I don't know

Suspicion
Suspicion

Where were you yesterday?
Where will you be tomorrow?
