Blow it Up
04:22
|
|||
I was living my life
Lonely and in despair
You might call it a hard time
But I never really cared
People tell me I'm crazy
I show them what I got
They lock me in a cage
So I gotta blow it up
Blow it up
We gotta blow it up
All you got
All you got
Blow it up
We blow it up
Never stop
And we will never stop
I'm not the one to blame
For what you choose to be
Your truth is such a shame
But you're too blind to see
Your privilege and status
the money that you got
Stop looking down upon us
we gotta blow it up

Stormriders

The storm it is coming
No point in running
Your gods and your mother won't save you
Just cared for yourself
So don't expect help
The wind it is turning
It´s turning on you
Thunder and lightning
They really look frightening
When you‘re all alone, solitary
You always came first
Your castle will burst
Want all for yourself
Get along on your own
We're facing the storm
But never alone
Together we're riding as one
Into the unknown
But never alone
To victory or to defeat
Stormriders
Ridin' the Storm
Still ridin' together
Stormriders
Never alone
We'll never surrender
Stormriders
Ridin' the Storm
All out of control
Stormriders
Never shall fall
We never shall fall
Through wind and through rain
The riders remain
As long as we're staying together
You don't need to fear
Any storm coming near
And feel no remorse
If you join our force
We're facing the storm, but never alone
Together we´re ridin' as one
Into the unknown, but never alone
To victory or to defeat

Heading for the Best
04:08
|
|||
Heading out on an empty highway
Never know where it ever ends
Got no clue but I call it my way
And I know I will get my chance
Searching for a new tomorrow
Yesterday will be far away
Got no time left to spent with sorrow
Soon there' ll be another day
And I still haven't found what I was looking for
A restless heart always fights for more
But now I'm heading for the best
With a wild heart in my chest
So round and round it goes
Where it stops nobody knows
I will make it to the top
I'm heading for the highest rock
I won't wait and I won't rest
Cause I'm heading for the best
I'm heading for the best
If I ever feel I'm running on empty
I get up, and I start again
For as long, as I'm still hungry
I will always try as hard as I can
No one said that it will be easy
But I know that I'm not alone
Got my friends standing right beside me
Still I wanna make it on my own
And I still haven't found what I was looking for
A restless heart always fights for more

Wheels keep on Turning
03:36
|
|||
Just another monday morning
Getting up, got bills to pay
You got to work, it‘s f***ing boring
And you still got five days to stay
Every week is like the other
Throughout the years it’s still the same
Follow your duties, don’t recover
And finally you'll go insane
This can’t go on forever
Time to make it better
Wheels keep on turning
Slaving nine to five
But the fire keeps on burning
The dream is still alive
There was a time you still remember
Another life that you have lived
Don’t know what lead you to surrender
What made you take the poison gift
You’re not alone, we feel together
It’s not too late to rearrange
This misery won’t last forever
We got the power to make a change

Don't Turn Away
04:13
|
|||
Ever since the world began
The same old story ran
Girl leaves boy and boy leaves girl
And he stumbles through the streets
She turns between the sheets
Just the same old tragedy
Tell her, tell me
Oh, baby why don’t you see
I can’t get you out of my head
“Wait, don’t turn away
Why don’t you stay” – It’s all the same
“Wait, don’t turn away
I beg you to stay” – repeating tales
This ain’t how the story ends
He takes another chance
Can’t give up so easily
But they fight and fight again
The struggle never ends
Broken glass can cut so deep
Tell her, tell me
Oh, baby why don’t you see
I can’t get you out of my mind
Wait, please wait
It is never too late to be sorry
Just another twist in the story
Wait

My Burning Love
03:44
|
|||
It’s been ten days, i’m staring at the door
I said ten times I don’t want you no more, no
The things I did just to make you stay
I tried so hard but couldn’t find a way
Miles away but never far apart
My memories firing up my heart
My burning love
Is longing for your heart
It’s tearing me apart
My burning love is haunting me
Oh burning love
It's burning up my heart
I knew it from the start
My burning love is killing me
... again
Sense is lost but I am not to blame
These lonely nights driving me insane, woohoo
And suddenly in moments of despair
I close my eyes you are standing there, yeah
I won’t give up,I'd rather fall apart
The need is strong, it’s firing up my heart

Weekend Warrior
03:59
|
|||
Friday has come and you’re ready to go
Can't wait to leave all behind
You got a secret your colleagues don't know
A fire that burns deep inside
Now you’re at home, the conversion begins
It's time for the beast to awake
You put on your jacket with badgets and pins
Til sunday you'll follow your fate
Ready to strike, no one to stand in your way
It feels so right, turning the night into day
Weekend warrior
You’re out in the streets for a fight
Drunk and glorious
The town is in your hands tonight
When it's all over the sadness returns
You're working from nine until five
You're locked in a cage, but the fire still burns
You're partying to stay alive
Weekend warrior
You’re out in the streets for a fight
Drunk and glorious
Denying the sadness inside

Kill Wig Metal
04:36
|
|||
You sing about groupies
With curvy booties
A mansion in the Hollywood Hills
Table dance bars
Expensive cars
Sniffing cocaine with 100 dollar bills
A wig on your head
Your spandex is red
You make the 80s fake again
Always take care
Of your full plastic hair
And your true job as an office man
But this is not our business
The time has come so listen
Learn how to rock
Ready for a battle
Time to rough it up
Rattlesnake rattle
Gonna kill wig metal
We are the Cobra Crew
We´ve got some venom for you
Rattlesnake rattle
Kill wig metal
The stage is ready
Your pants are getting sweaty
You believe in your own fairytale
A Van Halen riff
Is all you can give
And you owe money to Dave Coverdale
Money they spare
To see you fake hair
It’s time to let the cheat begin
Rock ain’t dead when the wig’s on your head
And you fake it with your stupid grin
This is our battle
Time to rough it up
Rattlesnake rattle
Gonna kill wig metal
We are the Cobra Crew
We´ve got a message for you
Rattlesnake rattle
Kill wig metal

Chained to Rock
03:23
|

Only one thing I really know
I wanna spend my life on rock and roll
Sometimes ist tough but not for long
Guitars and drums they got me movin‘ on
It might be crazy, it might sound weird
But I’m addicted, just music in my head
Heading for the top, never gonna stop
Chained to Rock
Workin‘ like a dog, play until we drop
Chained to Rock
I really really love
My rock n roll machine
It keeps me going on
Sometimes it makes me scream
Sometimes my life is upside down
I wonder if it ever will get better
But when I hear that magic sound
I get a feeling like the sun comes out
It might be crazy, it might sound weird
I am addicted with music in my head
Heading for the top, never gonna stop
Chained to Rock
Workin‘ like a dog, play until we drop
Chained to Rock
Drivin every day, always on the way
Chained to Rock
Playin in the night, til the morning light
Chained to Rock
I really really love
my rock n roll machine
It keeps me going on
Sometimes it makes me scream

Long Way Home
04:01
|
|||
Out on the road we’re all alone
It takes us far away from home
I’m always restless running free
It burns a hole inside of me
Oh, can you hear me from far away
Just gotta hold on another day
Another town, another place
Another crowd, another face
I see your pictures in my head and I am slowly getting mad
No one survives out there alone
Oh, can you hear me from far away
Please try to hold on another day
Don’t know where I go tomorrow
Don’t know where I’ve been yesterday
My mind is full of sorrow
I need you by my side
But you’re too far away
It’s such a long way home
Til we will be together
Long way home
But I would wait forever
Deep in my heart there is a crack
I fear the day when I’ll be back
