1. Powergame
You like to mess around with all the guys in town
And you don't give a damn what that means to me
And now there's no one left that you ain't cheated on
They've all got wise to you, just like me
Bridge
You're living, you're loving, you've got to beware
You're cheating, you're scheming more than you dare
Chorus
You love it, you need it, Powergame
You want it, you feed it, Powergame
More power, more fever, Powergame
It's hot, It's money, Powergame
Cold and hard inside, steel look in your eyes
The promises you make are only there to break
Looking for the action but you should know by know
Sleep on alone at night, for you own sake
Bridge
You're crying, You're bleeding, there's nowhere to run
You're lying, you're screaming, it's your turn to burn
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
2. Break The Chains
Woke today, my heads a daze
I can't remember a thing about the night
Reflections of an empty face
There's something wrong and I'm lost without a trace
Bridge
Lady killer, a lost cause
Locked away, screaming in vain
Body wrapped in chains
Going insane, I can't stand the pain
Chorus
Break the chains, break the chains
Break the chains from me now
Whoa - oooo
Feeling cold, my fears returned
Close my eyes, but the nightmare still remains
I can't believe, my eyes reveal
I can't recall where I was the night before
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
Bridge
Chorus
3. If Heaven Is Hell
Light, burning in your eyes, telling all your lies
leading me to hell, and I just hope and pray
That I'll be there some day, I'm going all the way
Chorus
If Heaven Is Hell
You'll never get me down
If Heaven Is Hell
You'll never get me down
Run, fighting to the end, just what will we learn?
Will we burn away?, is this what you want?
Its too late to change, stare it in the face
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
Solo
Don't, don't turn it away, we fought it so hard
Now we can't, turn it away
Chorus
4. On Through The Night
The time has come for you to go
Always knew that this day would come soon
Reality is knocking on your door
You hope to awaken to a dream
Scream like a child, lying still, it cannot be changed
Look in your eyes, cold as ice, a heart made of steel
Chorus
In the dark of the night
In the light of the day
Sadness in your lonely stare
Something chills you inside
On through the night into the twilight world
On through the night into the twilight world
Shadows close in, your time here is short
It's time to reflect on your life
Can't change your mind, there's only one way
Your spirit starts slipping away
A voice from inside screams out "Why, tell me why I must die"
The end, it is near, and a tear fills your eye
Chorus
It's over and over again
Solo
Chorus
It's over and over again
Over again, over again
5. Killer City
Standing in the shadows, see a vision on your mind
You will see the sunrise, will you make it through the day?
Running down a side street, is somebody after you
Got to turn and face it, there's just no other way
Chorus
Down on your knees, praying for the day to break
No one to hear you cry, death rules the streets
Running wild, running wild
Night in the back streets, nobody dares to walk
A shadow by the streetlamp, a chill runs through your spine
Your head in your hands, your back against the wall
A tear from your eye, as you see the metal shine
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
Killer City, how can we live when you destroy
Killer City, will stand and fight, we have to survive
6. Liar
I don't stop for no one, no one pushes me
I'm just here for living, just running wild and free
I don't give a damn, no one is gonna stop me
In dark and empty streets, nobody sees
Bridge
I'm a killer, running free
I'm a killer, can't you see
Chorus
Liar, now you run for your life
Liar, Now you run for your life
In the dark of the night, in the light of the day
Take my hand and you'll see hell and the face of fear
It's no place to hide, there's no place to run
When your name's on that list
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
7. Tonight
Stands at the bar, just a glance away
Could be she's just a dance away
Playing games with her eyes
What she does, she don't realize
Wants her so bad, she feels the same
They don't make a move, they play the same game
Chorus
Tonight, Tonight
She's just a glance away
Maybe just a dance away
Tonight, Tonight
There's no faking it
They're gonna make it
Tonight, Tonight
I bet before the night is gone
They're gonna get it on
Tonight, Tonight
There's no faking it
They're gonna make it
You're gonna make it tonight
Now he's thinking if only she would smile
I could move in, I'll give her a while
She says to herself what's he waiting for
Why don't he say what he's come here for
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
8. Sunrise In Tokyo
Listen to the sounds, they fill my head
The room goes round and round
Calm before the storm, I feel so alone
And I know that something's going down
Bridge
Down in the streets, the spotlight's shining bright
Neon lights, crazy nights, race the shadows to the dawn
Chorus
Sunrise In Tokyo (x4)
Tokyo!, Tokyo!
Can't shake it loose, I was born to the night
Can't wait for the light with you
Candle in the wind, burn it down
And wait for the rising sun
Bridge
Chorus
Solo
Race through the night, see the madman approach
Look in his eyes chills your bones
Times close at hand, are you waiting to die?
But the face in the window is mine
Oh no
Solo
Chorus
9. Blue Ridge Mountains Of Virginia
In the blue ridge mountains of Virginia
By the trail of the lonesome pine
In the pale moonshine our hearts entwine
She carved her name and I carved mine
Oh June, like the mountains are blue
Like the pine I am lonesome for you
