I Am The Fire - Halestorm

Am I brave enough?
Am I strong enough
To follow the desire
That burns from within?

To push away my fear
To stand where I’m afraid
I am through with this
'Cause I am more than this

I promise to myself
Alone and no one else
My flame is rising higher

I am the fire
I am burning brighter
Roaring like a storm
And I am the one

I’ve been waiting for
Screaming like a siren
Alive and burning brighter
I am the fire

I’ve been sacrificed
My heart’s been cauterized
Hanging onto hope
Shackled by the ghost

Of what I once believed
That I could never be
What’s right in front of me

I am the fire
I am burning brighter
Roaring like a storm
And I am the one

I’ve been waiting for
Screaming like a siren
Alive and burning brighter
I am the fire

I don’t believe I’ll fall from grace
Won’t let the past decide my fate
Leave forgiveness in my wake, oh!
Take the love that I’ve embraced

I promise to myself
Me and no one else
I am more than this
I am the fire

I am the fire
I am burning brighter
Roaring like a storm
And I am the one

I’ve been waiting for
Screaming like a siren
Alive and burning brighter
I am the fire

I am the fire
I am the fire
I am the fire
I am the fire

I am the fire

Arjen Anthony Lucassen-Where Pigs Fly

Darwin defended creation

Einstein travelled in time

Columbus discovered India

And Shakespeare couldn’t rhyme

O.J. pleaded guilty

Manson made parole

Reagan won five oscars

And Meryl none at all

Elvis was a vegan

Dylan never got stoned

Alice was known as vVncent

And Bowie was just Jones

Michael looked like Michael

Keith drank only juice

Madonna was a virgin

And Jimi played the flute

Bond’s drink was stirred not shaken

Darth Vader had no son

Dorothy was still in Kansas

And Clintdidn’t own a gun

Rocky had no sequels

Arnold never came back

E.T dialed the wrong number

And Dolly had no rack.

“Pink Beatles In A Purple Zeppelin” lyrics

Arjen Anthony Lucassen

“Pink Beatles In A Purple Zeppelin”

Rutger Hauer narration…

“Why create more music - if it was all done before. Computer generated noise in millions of gigs. Of all kinds and in all formats. Imagine 7D plus! Flash your ID, pick your heart’s desire. Click it, keep it. It’s auto-drive pre-shock, momma!”

Every song’s been sung before

Every note’s been played

Every chord’s been strung before

And every melody’s been made

They heard it all by now

Nothing left to be inspired by

It all seems so unreal somehow

As I sit back I close my eyes

I just think of what I like

Any blend will do

They reproduced what’s in my mind

But it feels like something new

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Same old sound, different song

(And the song remains the same)

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Sounds so right, feels so wrong

Every tune’s been hung before

Every album’s been produced

Every rhyme’s been applied before

And every music style has fused

I just think of what I like

Any blend will do

They reproduced what’s in my mind

But it feels like something new

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Same old sound, different song

(And the song remains the same)

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Sounds so right, feels so wrong

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Same old sound, different song

Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin

Sounds so right, feels so wrong.

I know the key to secrets never told
They’re hidden in your soul
Feelings you hide never wanting me
To find they’ve always been mine

Release all the madness within let it all begin
Now you’ll see, the dark side of me
In our black masquerade
Let the moonlight surround you
The game that we play is
The black masquerade

The full moon unmasks the stranger in us all
And the cruel world takes its toll
The shadow is cast on who you used to be
Let me set you free

Come now, come take my hand,
then you’ll understand
We’ll go to that forbidden land
Of our black masquerade

Let the darkness surround you
The game that we play is the black masquerade
Release all the madness within, let it all begin
We’ll go to that forbidden land

Come let me take you there
Let the moonlight surround you
Don’t be afraid, it’s the black masquerade

Metal Gods-Judas Priest

We’ve taken too much for granted

And all the time it had grown

From techno seeds we first planted

Evolved a mind of its own

Marching in the streets

Dragging iron feet

Laser beaming hearts

Ripping men apart

From what I’ve seen of perfection

Where we could do as we please

In secrecy this infection

Was spreading like a disease

Hiding underground

Knowing we’d be found

Fearing for our lives

Reaped by robot’s scythes

Metal gods

Metal gods

Metal gods

Metal gods

Machines are taking all over

With mankind in their command

In time they’d like to discover

How they can make their demand

Better be the slaves

To their wicked ways

But meeting with our death

Engulfed in molten breath

[Stacy2]

You know you’re all alone
Your friends they aren’t at home
Everybody’s gone to the garden
As you look into the trees
You can look but you don’t see
The flowers seem to tease you at the garden
Everybody’s there
But you don’t seem to care
What’s it with you man and this garden?

Turned into my worst phobia
A crazy man’s utopia
If you’re lost no one can show ya
But it sure was glad to know ya
Only poor boys take a chance
On the garden’s song and dance
Feel her flowers as they wrap around
But only smart boys do without

You can find it all inside
No need to wrestle with your pride
No, you ain’t losin’ your mind
You’re just in the garden
They can lead you to yourself
Or you can throw it on the shelf
But you know you can
Look inside for the garden

I wasn’t really scared
Lost my virginity there
To a gypsy with blond hair
But now no one seems to care
Like a mouse inside a maze
Wandering round for daze
With a smile upon my face
I never wanna leave this place
Only poor boys take a chance
On this garden’s song and dance
Feel her flowers as they wrap around
But only smart boys do without
Turned into my worst phobia
It’s a crazy man’s utopia
If you’re lost no one can show ya
But it sure was glad to know ya

Bye bye
So long, bye bye
It’s glad to know ya
Bye bye

Bye

So long

[Stacy2]

Hey, lady, you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough
Oh, darling, darling, darling,
walk a while with me
Oh, you’ve got so much, so much, so much

Many have I loved,
and many times been bitten
Many times I’ve gazed along the open road
Many times I’ve lied
and many times I’ve listened
Many times I’ve wondered
how much there is to know
Many dreams come true,
and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold

Mellow is the man who
knows what he’s been missing
Many, many men can’t see the open road
Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing
you really ought to know, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Really ought to know (oh, oh, oh)
I really ought to know
Oh, you know I should, you know I should
You know I should’ve known

White dove sittin’ on a blackberry bush
Is there any questioning why
Tell me what heaven you’re bound for today
Feel just like I could cry
Feel just like I could cry
Ooh ooh ooh

Little squirrel sitting on a flat slanted rock
Wondering where the winter
meal is coming from
I’m tired of fighting for it,
gonna lay down my gun
Just know that my work is done
Just know that my work is done
Doo doo doo doo doo doo

Little boy blue now come blow your horn
No more of the sheep is around
I said I’m tired of fighting,
gonna lay down my gun
Just know that my work is done
Just know that my work is done
Just know that my work is done
Just know that my work is done

Victim of Changes-Judas Priest

Whiskey woman, don’t you know that you are drivin’ me insane?

The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain

Don’t you know you’re driving me insane?

You’re tryin’ to find your way through life

You’re tryin’ to get some new direction

Another woman’s got her man

But she won’t find no new connection

Takes another drink or two

Things look better when she’s through

Take another look around, you’re not going anywhere

Realized you’re gettin’ old and no one seems to care

You’re tryin’ to find your way again

You’re tryin’ to get some new

Another woman’s got her man

But she won’t find a new, oh

Takes another drink or two

Things look better when she’s through

You been foolin’ with some hot guy

I want to know why is it why

Get up, get out, you know you really blew it

I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough, good God, pluck me

Once she was wonderful

Once she was fine

Once she was beautiful

Once she was mine (once she was mine)

Change has come over her body

She doesn’t see me anymore

Now change has come over her body

She doesn’t see me anymore

Hey baby, what you gonna do
When the lights go up on you?
What’s your name, can I drive you home?
Sweet woman, are you all alone?
You’re the one for me

I’m gonna keep you busy as a bee,
Could bee, could be
Rat bat blue

Now, get up woman, don’t be slow
It’s getting late and I wanna go
No 'cause for acting big
Got to love, got to live
Stick around with me

I’m gonna show you things
You never thought you’d see

You see
Rat bat blue
You’re so fine
Get out!
You didn’t understand

I’m a hard loving man
No way you can satisfy
The way you look, the way you lie
And when you shut the door
Make sure I don’t see you 'round here no more

Rat bat blue
Alright

Anybody Listening?-Queensryche

You and I long to live like wind upon the water

If we close our eyes we’ll maybe realize

There’s more to life than what we have known

And I can’t believe I’ve spent so long

Living lies I knew were wrong inside

I’ve just begun to see the light

Long ago there was a dream, had to make a choice or two

Leaving all I loved behind for what nobody knew

Stepped out on the stage

A life under lights and judging eyes

Now the applause has died and I can dream again

Is there anybody listening?

Is there anyone that sees what’s going on?

Read between the lines, criticize the words they’re selling

Think for yourself and feel the walls

Become sand beneath your feet

Feel the breeze?

Time’s so near you can almost taste the freedom

There’s a warm wind from the south

Hoist the sail and we’ll be gone

By morning, this will all seem like a dream

And if I don’t return to sing the song, maybe just as well

I’ve seen the news and there’s not much I can do alone

Is there anybody listening?

Is there anyone who smiles without a mask?

What’s behind the words images

They know will please us?

I’ll take what’s real

Bring up the lights

Is there anybody listening?

Is there anyone that sees what’s going on?

Read between the lines

Criticize the words they’re selling

Think for yourself and feel the walls

Become sand beneath your feet

Close your eyes

[Stacy2]

She never breaks into the conversation
He seems to be the reason why she lives
She tries to be the perfect kind of stranger
But we always seem to love the most
The ones who never give, yeah

It’s between two hearts
A personal situation
Between two hearts
The kind of love with a reputation

We never have to ask her why she’s crying
The smile she had’s been kicked into a frown
But still it makes her day to be his pleasure
Should we open up her eyes
Can we ever break the spell
No one can tell

It’s between two hearts
A personal combination
Between too hearts
The kind of love with a bad reputation

Put on your party faces and come along
Join in the big parade
Here comes the camera
Do you look as good as your sister
Smile at the animals
They should be the ones in the cages
Turn the pages

Another way to spend a rainy Sunday
Waiting for a call that never comes
The mystery is how she makes her choices
But don’t we always choose
The ones who hide the sun
Everyone

It’s between two hearts
Love and desperation
Between two hearts
The kind of love
The kind of love

Between two hearts
A personal situation
Between two hearts
The kind of love with a reputation

• Between Two Hearts (Dio)

[Stacy2]

Far in the distant future
Beyond the pages of our time
Cold-blooded wicked tyrants
Threaten the freedom of mankind
Corruption, lust, and greed
Define the new nobility
Changing the course of history

Across the vast North Empire
Most people struggle to survive
Living a meek existence
Where they’re secludedly oppressed

We are living day-to-day
Forced to bear the lion’s share
People just don’t have
The time for music anymore
But no one seems to care

My friends have seen the chosen one
Our quest for freedom has begun
He will be the answer to our prayers

There walks a god among us
Who’s seen the writing on the wall
He is the revolution
He’ll be the one to save us all

My brother Gabriel
Is all the hope we need
Shining like a beacon in the night
Shed light on Ravenskill
A reason to believe
Music is the gift he brings
The songbird stops and listens when he sings

Linda Perry-Beautiful

Every day is so wonderful

And suddenly it’s hard to breathe

Now and then I get insecure

From all the pain, I’m so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say

Words can’t bring me down

I am beautiful in every single way

Words can’t bring me down

Don’t you bring me down today

To all your friends you’re delirious

So consumed in all your gloom

Trying hard to fill the emptiness

The piece is gone, left the puzzle undone

Ain’t that the way it is?

You are beautiful no matter what they say

Words can’t bring you down

You are beautiful in every single way

Words can’t bring you down

Oh no, no

Don’t you bring me down today

No matter what we do

No matter what we say

We’re the song inside the tune

Full of beautiful mistakes

And everywhere we go

The sun will always shine

But tomorrow we might awake

On the other side

We are beautiful no matter what they say

Words can’t bring us down

We are beautiful in every single way

Words can’t bring us down

Oh no, no

So don’t you bring me down today

Don’t you bring me down

Don’t bring me down today

You learn to lead from your father
But you blamed yourself when he walked off
Sometimes you hold your child like the last one
Then you find yourself trying to stay gone

Rage is a game for the lonely
Love is the mercy we need

It’s better than walkin’ away
It’s better than walkin’ away
Sometimes it’s harder to stay
Than walkin’ away from it all
Holding hands at the table
A kiss goodnight with the light on
Sunrise, words and a coffee
You miss it all just to feel free

Fear is a thief to the family
Brave is the one on his knees

It’s better than walkin’ away
It’s better than walkin’ away
Love is the price that we pay
Walkin’ away from it all

Rage is a game for the lonely
War is a front for our greed
Love makes a way but it only
Heals when we stay while we bleed

It’s better than walkin’ away
It’s better than walkin’ away
So many reasons to stay
So walk in and wait, for it all..

You’re Gone-Marillion

You’re gone. As suddenly as you came to me

Like nightfall followed dawn without a day between

You’re gone and suddenly I can’t see

I’m in the shadow of you

I’m in the shadow of you

I can see you in my minds rose-tinted eye..

Somewhere you’re drifting by

Your heels rolling sparks on the lucky street

While here am I, left behind

Stunned and blind

But I can see you from here

I can see you so clear

You are the light

You are the light

You have the day

I have the night

But we have the early hours together

You’re gone, and heaven cries.

A thunderstorm breaks from the northern sky

Chasing you back to the daily grind

You’re gone. And where am I?

A haunted life

The ghost of your laughter

The half-empty glass

The half-empty glass

And I wait

'Til midnight tolls

Two souls almost touching in the dark

I’ll be allright

You are the light

You are the light

You have the day

I have the night

But we have the early hours

We have the early hours

We have the early hours together

[Stacy2]

The moon is stained with
midnight tears of fortune
Tainted pastures,
scarecrows point to no one
My favorite cigarette
plays its funeral song
A still life of the world

Shrinking violet wounded by her love
The old men sleep
while porcelain screams take over
The world disguises her dying glow
A still life of the world
A still life of the world

I took in the sunrise and I tried to save it
I looked through my own eyes
and I thought I’d made it
I thought I could reach the
sky but I’m stuck here on the ground

I wanted to drink wine
from the captain’s table
I saw in my mind’s eye
but my hands weren’t able
Searching for the air but it
all keeps coming down
Down, coming down
I’m searching for the air
but I’m stuck here on the ground

On the ground
On the ground now
Searching for the air but
I’m stuck here on the ground now
Searching for the air

Searching for the air
Searching for the air

Neither more, I’m neither less
And I’m not trying to take some test
And I’m not trying to prove myself
And I’m not trying to run away
Away from you

And all these years I’ve
seen the changes take place
Like the ice melting away
Like the sun bringing the morning
And I know it was all for you

And when I get to walk the streets
Without this burden on my feet
I know I’ve been called home
These shoes won’t be my own to fill
When I see the past beneath
My heavy heart is finally free

Searching for the air
Searching for the air
But I have found
It’s pound for pound

Underneath this cosmic symphony
Underneath this pain, this happiness
And underneath the river stream
A will to live
I’ve given love, I’ve given hate
I’ve given peace and I’ve made war
And I’ve been scarred by words and swords
But here I am
A will to live

Yeah, when I get to walk these streets
Without a burden on these feet
I know I’ve been called home
This place will be my own again
When I feel the past beneath
My heavy heart is finally free

Searching for the air
Searching for the air
But I have found
It’s pound for pound

Searching for the air
Searching for the air
But I have found
It’s pound for pound

One day I’ll see you there
One day I’ll see you there
But here and now
It’s pound for pound
Pound for pound
Pound for pound
Pound for pound

Well it’s a cold world
And I’m in the middle
Caught in the in-between

I don’t belong here
So I’m writing to you
It’s wrong here
Where I’m sending you some

Letters from earth, yeah

Well it’s a new world
And now I’m a stranger
Stranger than you know

And I’m writing to you
With blood on my hands

What if I send you madness
What if I send you pain

But you gotta play on
Cause they say it’s just pretend
Ask them why they say you’ll never, never die
Come on - the game is called the end

Well it’s a cold world
And I’m in the middle
Caught in the in-between

I don’t belong here
So I’m writing to you

What if I send you confusion
What is the time and the pain worth
Oh no no
I’m only sending

Talk In ‘79-Phil Lynott

The Clash were headed for a head on collision

Crash for complete control

The Pistols left behind a swindle and a scandal

That nobody wished to handle

Sham 69 were left in a shambles

Generation X was next

Elvis and Nick Lowe

They had a go

With the help of the Attractions

And Joe Jackson said it wasn’t his style

Dave Edmunds survived alive

On top of a Rockpile

Devo didn’t know if they were men

Because they couldn’t get no satisfaction

The Rats were caught in their own trap

Steve Strange began to change

Ultravox had a system

Kraftwerk nearly beat them

And the Yellow Magic Orchestra missed them

Eno rose for Lowe

The Slits became rasta

And the Buzzcocks played faster and faster with adrenalin

John Cooper Clarke he was smart

The Public Image became Limited

The Police were re-released and came out as a three-piece

The Rocky Horror Show became the history of tomorrow

Nina Hagen, she was a German maiden

And the music press revealed their anger

When threatened by the Stranglers

This broadcast was brought to you in 1979

I’m just talking to you over these waves

Not just about another time and another place

And before we knew it

The old wave was gone and controlled
