Change or Die Lyrics
[Intro]
Let's go!
[Verse 1]
This is a battle call to one, to all
The opposition will take the fall
Are you sick of just getting by?
Are you tired of the fucking grind?
Are you looking for a better life?
[Chorus]
Change or die
We're looking for the answers of our lives
Tonight
You've got to change or die
The answer is for you to do what's right
Tonight
[Verse 2]
Are you corrupted by the status quo?
The repetition kills us all
Is the rat race draggin' you down?
Are you stuck in that dead-end town?
Are you looking for the way out?
[Chorus]
Change or die
We're looking for the answers of our lives
Tonight
You've got to change or die
The answer is for you to do what's right
Tonight
[Bridge]
Yeah!
We won't go down
Not tonight
This is our battleground
We're ready to fight
We won't go down
Not tonight
This is our battleground
We're ready to fight
[Chorus]
Change or die
We're looking for the answers of our lives
Tonight
You've got to change or die
The answer is for you to do what's right
Tonight
[Outro]
Change or die
Change or die!
Hollywood Whore Lyrics
[Intro]
Hollywood whore, passed out on the floor
I'm sorry, but the party's over
[Verse 1]
Cocaine nose and trendy clothes
Gotta send her to rehab
She found out she's got no soul
But it really doesn't bother her
White trash queen, American dream
Oh, what a role model
Throwing a fit, making a scene
Like no tomorrow
[Chorus]
Hollywood whore, passed out on the floor
Can't take it no more
I'm sorry, but the party's over
The talk of the town is she's goin' down
I'm sorry, but the party's over now
[Verse 2]
Awake by noon, drunk by 4:00
Sucked up in the showbiz
You're so lame, you're such a bore
I wanna kick your teeth in
Plastic smile to match your style
We can tell ya got a facelift
You're so vain, oh-so vile
You're a number one hit
[Chorus]
Hollywood whore, passed out on the floor
Can't take it no more
I'm sorry, but the party's over
The talk of the town is she's goin' down
I'm sorry, but the party's over now
[Bridge]
The cameras are gone, and nobody screams
She couldn't survive her 15 minutes of fame
Her friends are all gone; she's going insane
She'll never survive without the money and fame
It's all going down the drain
(Down the drain, down the drain, down the drain...)
[Chorus]
Hollywood whore, passed out on the floor
Can't take it no more
I'm sorry, but the party's over
The talk of the town is she's goin' down
I'm sorry, but the party's over now
Hollywood whore, passed out on the floor
Can't take it no more
I'm sorry, but the party's over
The talk of the town is she's goin' down
I'm sorry, but the party's over now
[Outro]
Wake up, the party's over
Wake up, the party's over
Wake up, the party's over
Wake up, the party's over
Don't let the door hit ya
Where the good Lord split ya, honey!
I Almost Told You That I Loved You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You know I love it when you're down on your knees
And I'm a junkie for the way that you please
You shut me up when you swallow me down
My back to the wall, you're going to town
[Chorus]
I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't, 'cause it would have been a lie
I say the damnedest things when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you
[Verse 2]
I hate to say it, but it has to be said
You look so fragile as I fuck with your head
I know it shouldn't, but it's getting me off
If sex is the drug, then what is the cost?
[Chorus]
I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't, 'cause it would have been a lie
I say the damnedest things when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you
[Verse 3]
I'm not the one that you want
The one that you need
My love is like a fucking disease
You can give me your hand
You can make your demands
I'm the hardest motherfucker to please
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
[Chorus]
I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't, 'cause it would have been a lie
I say the damnedest things when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you
I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't, 'cause it would have been a lie
I say the damnedest things when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you
Lifeline Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was a boy
I didn't care 'bout a thing
It was me in this world
And a broken dream
I was blamin' myself
For all that was goin' wrong
I was way out there
On the wrong side of town
And the ones that I loved
I started pushing them out
Then I realized
That it was all my fault
[Chorus]
I've been lookin' for a lifeline
For what seems like a lifetime
I'm drowning in the pain
I'm breaking down again
Lookin' for a lifeline
[Verse 2]
So I put out my hand
And I asked for some help
We tore down the walls
I built around myself
I was struck by the light
And I fell to the ground
[Chorus]
I've been lookin' for a lifeline
For what seems like a lifetime
I'm drowning in the pain
I'm breaking down again
Lookin' for a lifeline
Is there anybody out there?
Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?
I'm drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Lookin' for a lifeline
[Bridge]
You know a heart of gold
Won't take you all the way
And in a world so cold
It's hard to keep the faith
I'm never gonna fade away
[Chorus]
I've been lookin' for a lifeline (Looking for a lifeline)
For what seems like a lifetime (Seems like a lifetime)
I'm drowning in the pain
I'm breaking down again
Lookin' for a lifeline
Is there anybody out there? (Is there anybody out there?)
Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?
I'm drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Lookin' for a lifeline
Had Enough Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Turn the channel on the TV
Another boy shot tonight
I can't believe what I am seein'
A body bag; a mother cries
It seems like this is never ending
I've had enough, so I decide
The time has come for me to face it
I can't refuse the war inside
[Chorus]
'Cause we have had enough
All the violence has touched
Every part of our lives
Our innocence is gone tonight
[Verse 2]
I don't know if I could hide it
I know the truth; it's only lies
The president will deny it
The body count: a steady rise
In my head, there is a riot
We change the world; no one dies
The time has come for us to fight it
We can't refuse the war inside
[Chorus]
'Cause we have had enough
All the violence has touched
Every part of our lives
Our innocence is gone tonight
'Cause we have had enough
All the violence has touched
Every part of our lives
Our innocence is gone tonight
[Bridge]
I know that you can change the future
I know that we can make it happen
In my head, there is a riot
And I don't think that I can fight it
[Chorus]
'Cause we have had enough
All the violence has touched
Every part of our lives
Our innocence is gone tonight
'Cause we have had enough
All the violence has touched
Every part of our lives
Our innocence is gone tonight
[Outro]
We have had enough
We have had enough
We have had enough
Live This Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I always thought I could trust you
But I guess that's not the case
All the years that I loved you
You were out there playin' the games
You didn't think that I would find out
But it was written all over the place
Is it what you really want now?
Then get the fuck out of my face
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you deceive me?
I'm begging you to leave me
[Chorus]
Go to hell... I'm better off without you
All is well... I'd rather be alone
To have you
To hold you
And never know you 'cause
You sold me out
You're never gonna
Live this down
Never gonna live this down
[Verse 2]
How do you look in the mirror?
How do you stand the sight of your face?
If ya made it any clearer
I coulda seen right through the hate
And I'll never think about you
While I'm sleeping with all of your friends
And I'm hopin' that ya find out
'Cause love is the sweetest revenge
[Pre-Chorus]
How could you deceive me?
I'm begging you to leave me
[Chorus]
Go to hell... I'm better off without you
All is well... I'd rather be alone
To have you
To hold you
And never know you 'cause
You sold me out
You're never gonna
Live this down
Never gonna live this down
[Bridge]
I always thought I could trust you
I always thought I could trust you
I always thought I could trust you
I always thought I could trust you
[Outro]
So, go to hell... I'm better off without you
All is well... I'd rather be alone
To have you
To hold you
And never know you 'cause
You sold me out
You're never gonna
Live this down
Never gonna live this down
March Out of the Darkness Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It feels like the end of the world
It seems like nobody cares
Is it real? Am I goin' insane?
Am I ever gonna change my ways?
[Pre-Chorus]
Isolated, separated
Sick of the mess I created
The pressure keeps rising
When the truth is what I'm fighting
[Chorus]
We march out of the darkness
We revel in the flames
The mission is accomplished
We are ready for the change
The only thing that will set us free
Is living through the pain
And the only thing that I'll guarantee:
We'll never be the same
[Verse 2]
It feels like I'm still in a cage
And I scream till I'm blue in the face
Is it real, or is it a phase?
I think the time has come to change my ways
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm ready, I'm willing
To take what I've been givin'
The pressure keeps rising
'Cause the truth is what I'm fighting
[Chorus]
We march out of the darkness
We revel in the flames
The mission is accomplished
We are ready for the change
The only thing that will set us free
Is living through the pain
And the only thing that I'll guarantee:
We'll never be the same
[Bridge]
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
[Chorus]
We march out of the darkness
We revel in the flames
The mission is accomplished
We are ready for the change
The only thing that will set us free
Is living through the pain
And the only thing that I'll guarantee:
We'll never be the same
[Outro]
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
It's okay; it's all right
Just let go; you'll be fine
Into the Light Lyrics
[Intro]
This is a warning
My final warning
Go!
This is a warning
My final warning
[Verse 1]
I got a head full of wreckage
And a mouthful of lies
My mind's in the gutter
I feel like I want to die
I'm the king of nothing
With a broken crown
I've been taking a beatin'
But I won't back down
[Chorus]
Free me from myself
Shut down my mind
A solo revolution
Into the light
[Verse 2]
This fear is a weakness
And it's wearing me out
I burn in the sickness
It feels like I'm goin' down
I deny my affliction
And run from the light
It's a lonely condition
If you are the one denied
[Chorus]
Free me from myself
Shut down my mind
A solo revolution
Into the light
Fuck all this madness
Put it aside
Out of the shadows
And into the light
Free me from myself
Shut down my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah!
[Bridge]
Out of the shadows
And into the light
Out of the shadows
And into the light
[Guitar Solo: Mick Mars]
[Chorus]
Free me from myself
Shut down my mind
A solo revolution
Into the light
Fuck all this madness
Put it aside
Out of the shadows
And into the light
Free me from myself
Shut down my mind
[Outro]
Shut down my mind
Free me from myself
Carry Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been looking for something sacred
Running away from the light
Gotta burn all the bridges in my head
That lead me away from my life
I question my own existence
Question the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Why don't you carry me?
Why don't you carry me?
I can't move on; I can't live on
Carry me
Why don't you carry me?
I can't save me; I am crazy
Without you
[Verse 2]
It takes horns to hold up my halo
And strength to get through the fight
Now I'm layin' my cards on the table
Prayin' everything will be all right
I question my own existence
Question the meaning of life
[Chorus]
Why don't you carry me?
Why don't you carry me?
I can't move on; I can't live on
Carry me
Why don't you carry me?
I can't save me; I am crazy
Without you
[Bridge]
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
[Chorus]
Why don't you carry me?
Why don't you carry me?
I can't move on; I can't live on
Carry me
Why don't you carry me?
I can't save me; I am crazy
Without you
[Bridge]
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
The hardest ones to love
Are the ones that need it most
[Outro]
Carry me, carry me
Carry me, carry me
Nights of Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The wicked game that you play so good
I'm falling hard, just like you knew I would
This won't last; it's too good
I can't stop, but I know I should
[Chorus]
Days of war and the nights of love
Heaven's on fire and I'm on the run
Dancing with the devil in the midnight sun
I'm falling in love; I'm coming undone
And I'm coming undone (Coming undone)
[Verse 2]
I'm outta my head in a memory of you
I'll never forget what you put me through
It wasn't right, what ya did
But I was just as wrong as you
[Chorus]
Days of war and the nights of love
Heaven's on fire and I'm on the run
Dancing with the devil in the midnight sun
I'm falling in love; I'm coming undone
Days of war and the nights of love
Heaven's on fire and I'm on the run
Dancing with the devil in the midnight sun
I'm outta my head; I'm coming undone
[Post-Chorus]
I'm on the outside looking in
I turned my back on myself again
I'm on the ledge; I'm calling out
Somebody better come and talk me down
I said I'd never do it again
But then I keep on giving in
I gotta turn my world around
Because it keeps on knocking me down
Knocking me down
[Bridge]
I fell hard; it felt good
This won't last, but I wish it would
It wasn't right, what ya did
But I was just as wrong as you
[Chorus]
Days of war and the nights of love
Heaven's on fire and I'm on the run
Dancing with the devil in the midnight sun
I'm falling in love; I'm coming undone
Days of war and the nights of love
Heaven's on fire and I'm on the run
Dancing with the devil in the midnight sun
I'm outta my head; I'm coming undone
[Post-Chorus]
I'm on the outside looking in
I turned my back on myself again
I'm on the ledge; I'm calling out
Somebody better come and talk me down
I swear I'll never do it again
But then I keep on giving in
I gotta turn my world around
Because it keeps on knocking me down
[Outro]
Knocking me down
Knocking me down
Knocking me down
State of Emergency Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a movie playin' in my head
Bombs falling and children crying
The sun rise and the sky turns red
Load your guns tonight
There's a song playin' down the hall
All alone, there's an old man dying
I can't feel anything at all
Something isn't right!
[Chorus]
This is a state of emergency
I've been runnin' from a tragedy
There's a battle ragin' in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
Left for dead
[Verse 2]
There's a world standin' in my way
Father said that I best stop tryin'
Stand down; it'll be okay
You don’t have to fight
There's a picture hangin' on the wall
Of a memory that I'm denying
The sun sets and the angels fall
Something isn't right!
[Chorus]
This is a state of emergency
I've been runnin' from a tragedy
There's a battle ragin' in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
[Bridge]
No, don't leave me here alone
I don't wanna make this hell my home
I would rather die than sell my soul
I would rather lie than let you go
[Refrain]
There's a voice screamin' in my head
Tellin' me that I best stop cryin'
Stand up; it'll be okay
Load your guns tonight
[Chorus]
This is a state of emergency
I've been runnin' from a tragedy
There's a battle ragin' in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
[Outro]
State of emergency!
State of emergency!
State of emergency!
I don't wanna be left for dead
Left for dead
Left for dead
