1. Didn't I

Didn't believe I could stray from home,
Indian summer I was all alone.
And I didn't believe
I was doing wrong,
But I hurt you.
Went for a ride,
And I didn't mean to
Stray from the path
To the in between.
An innocent ride
With a long lost friend,
See I had to.
And now,
Now I can't look in your eyes,
'Cause you'll see the wrong
that I hide,
Now I can't look in your eyes...
Somehow I took the love right
Outta you didn't I?
It's sometimes better
If you face the truth alone.
I promised we be
Forever now didn't I?
Nothing matters when a lie
Turns fire cold.
If I was you
I could understand,
A passionate night
With another man,
Well maybe I tried so at least
You could see,
I need you.
She didn't mean
Anything to me,
I knew her from school baby,
Can't you see.
We all make mistakes and
You're hurting inside,
See, I bleed too.
I thought we had
Somethin' special baby,
I know I'm wrong
Can't you see me cry?
If you forgive me now,
I promise baby
I'll never need to
Apologize again...

2. The Ghost Of You

Like to say I forgive you
Now that'd be a lie
Love to say it was over
But I can't sleep cause you haunt my nights
Hate to say that I miss you
But I don't wish you well
Wish my friends would have smacked me
And woke me up from your terrible spell

How I lost myself I wonder
Looking back you weren't so much
How you made me loose my thunder so long
So gone

Not content what you put me through
Trying to get rid of the ghost of you
With myself I'll just make due
While trying to get rid of the ghost of you

Maybe I never loved you
Maybe it was the sex
But I should have known better
Made me weak yeah I felt half dead
Maybe it was obsession
Talking up to the fool
Could have been all the drama yeah
I was sane when compared to you

Now I'm on the road to healing
Hope you're on the road to ruin
All your cards were double dealing
So long
So gone

Not content what you put me through
Trying to get rid of the ghost of you
With myself I'll just make due
While trying to get rid of the ghost of you

3. You Can Jump Alone

It's a real fine mess
That you got us both into,
It's a broken song and the
Words don't rhyme.
If I knew back then you'd
Explode on contact,
I would've left you still
In your world disguised,
Scream and fight for all
The wrong reasons,
Love the taste of blood
On your claws,
Well here's a little note
So long, now I'm leaving.
Dogs at bay are screaming,
Cats are scratchin' deep.
Valentines are bleeding.
You're not what I need,
Find your destination,
In your danger zone.
Lover's leap is waiting,
You can jump alone.
You know being with you is
Like matches at a gas pump,
Walk a fine line and rollin'
them dice.
Somebody said how I'd live
To regret you,
Well I took that walk
And I fell through the ice.
You're not all there,
You engine's been missin'
Lights are on,
But nobody's home.
You're just a few sandwiches
Short of a picnic.
Goodbye.

4. Shelter

Haven't seen you lately,
How you been?
Are you comfortable
Or scared inside there?
Now I heard
You toughened up your skin,
Well that's wonderful,
'Cause life's not real fair,
You can never hide from the
Truth inside,
You can't run into
Your shallow reason,
When you search your soul,
Fill the empty holes,
Hope you find it
When the truth's in season,
I hope you know
Your sin's allowed,
Hear me through the
Silent sound
Soul to soul,
You're gonna have to
Shelter me,
Everybody take a fall,
You're gonna have to
Shelter me from the candle to the
Lonely years,
You externalize to calm
Your senses,
All your drive is covered
By your fear,
Not sensible,
But so defenseless,
You can say it's me,
I can point at you,
I can stand and claim
I'm Old Prince Charming,
I don't mean to preach,
Different tongue I speak,
But the attitude is so
Arming.
I hope you know I understand,
I'm guilty of my
Heart's demands
I'm driving in the coming rain,
I'm needing what you
Hide away

5. Victims Of The Night

Every now and then
You take a fall,
Then you try again
Just to lose it all,
Yeah you know
What I'm talkin' about,
It's a loser's game of love,
When you think
You have it all figured,
You turn around to find it gone,
And you're dancin' with the
Victims of the night,
Taken for heartache by the lies,
When you're lonely like
The victims of the night,
You can't wait until morning
So the story goes
You live and learn,
Here the fire dies,
But you had to burn,
Yeah, you know
What I'm talkin' about,
Shot straight through
The heart, hand in hand
With promises made,
Like a mirror in the dark,
And you're dancin' with me
Never care 'bout the crimes
You do,
Never care about the
Price to pay.
Stranded here with a
Shattered soul,
As the dreams all fade away
Dancin' with the...FADE

6. Hands Of Time

Still of the night
When we're all alone,
A picture of you,
Where the shadow falls,
If only we could make
It last forever,
All of the dreams
We had in the past,
Stories the same
Just like all the rest,
Hand in hand we walk
An endless mile together,
When we're caught in the
Heat of the fight,
Hope it's gonna turn out right,
When we almost say goodbye,
That's when
We have to hold on,
When we're ready
To climb the walls,
When we're startin' to lose it all,
We're both gonna take the fall,
That's when we have to hold on.
Love stops the hands of time,
In the middle of a dream,
We cross the line,
Love stops the hands of time,
We can last forever,
Or at least tonight if we try.
And like the movies
When the ending's right,
It's just a battle
But it's worth the fight,
Love's a prisoner with no
Compromise, no surrender,
But I know when we make love,
I never can get enough,
When it comes
To push and shove,
That's when we gotta hold on.
We have our ups and downs,
Lose pieces on the ground,
When hearts beat silent sound,
That's when we
Gotta hold on.
And did I tell you
True magic is a game
You set it up with mirrors to
Break it down again.

7. Love By The Numbers

All reflections in your face
Showin' through you,
Tearin' down the love
That was to fade,
Hope you woken from
Your stupor, clear your mind
So that maybe you'll hear
This time what it is
I have to say.
Baby, one and one
Never equals two,
When you're playin'
Love by the numbers,
Baby, I'm so tired and
I'm sick of you,
When you're playin'
Love by the numbers.
Baby, one and one
Never equals two.
All the secrets that you keep
Are glarin' at me,
All the happiness
You fake outside.
Want your way with your
Conditions, never mind
What it is anyone else
Feels or says,
You're so blind.
I don't care about,
I don't care about,
All you've said and done
"Cause all I know is
When I get home,
We're gonna be all done

8. Not In The Mood For A Heartache

Somebody told me
That you're sorry,
They said you changed your
Look, the color of your hair,
They said you asked them
How I'm doin',
Please don't bother me babe,
'Cause I don't really care,
Somewhere in yesterday,
Two lovers ran astray,
Without a reason why,
Just another lullaby,
Someday you're gonna see
After your broken dreams,
I'll say I told you so,
Please don't say no.
If I see you again,
Would you just turn away?
I'm not in the mood for a heartache.
If I see you again,
It would be a mistake,
'Cause I'd rather us both
Go our own way,
See I'm not in the mood for a heartache.
So did you ever find
Your reasons?
Last time I saw you, you had
Diamonds in your eyes.
Sometimes a diamond
Is deceiving,
You move in circles
But it's really no surprise
I'll never understand,
We had it in our hands,
We let it slip away,
You felt the need for change,
And now I heard you said,
It's lonely in your bed.
I'll bet it's cold in there,
Baby I don't care
If I see you again,
Would you just turn away?
I'm not in the mood for a heartache.
If I see you again,
It would be a mistake,
'Cause I'd rather us both
Go our own way,
See I'm not in the mood for a heartache.
Inside another dream,
It's always you and me,
I feel it comin' on, I pray to
God I wake
If I see you again,
Would you just turn away?
I'm not in the mood of a heartache.
If I see you again,
It would be a mistake,
'Cause I'd rather us both
Go our own way,
See I'm not in the mood for a heartache.
So I'm not in the mood for a heartache
So I'm not in the mood for a heartache
I'm not in the mood for a heartache
I'm not in the mood for a heartache

9. I Know Better Than You Do

Hard times, always hard times,
Every time I try you hear
Nothing I say,
I try, Lord knows I try,
Tried to compromise,
But the more that you play,
I'll dance, stand on my head,
Anything it takes
Just to mellow you out,
We roll end over end,
Silence never breaks,
God the silence is loud,
I know where this
Evenin's goin',
I'm all set to hear
You sayin'.
I know better than you do,
I know better than you do,
Life with you is a typhoon,
I know better than,
I know better than you...
We touch, always we feel,
Every time we love it
Just settles the storm.
Sometimes that's all
That's real, then,
We fight again with no reason
Or fault
It's hard to keep my mouth shut,
Such a little girl underneath
Your smooth skin,
I'm tough you ain't no prize.
Learn to play the game,
Always letting you win,
I know conversation's boring,
Close my eyes to your old story...
Act cool steady it down,
Maybe you'll stop like a
summer storm cloud,
Act cool steady it down,
I've been there before...

10. Love's A Loaded Gun

оригинал: Alice Cooper

Somebody saw you at the station
You had your suitcase in your hand
You didn't give no information
You walked off with another man
I'm always standing in the shadows
I watched you give yourself away
You take 'em home into your bedroom
You had another busy day

I tried to look the other way and fake it
You pushed me to the limit
I can't take it

One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love's a loaded gun
Red lights
Stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love's a loaded gun
And it shoots to kill

Someday they'll put me in a squad car
Someday they'll throw away the key
But till that day I'll be a mad dog
'Cause that's what you taught me to be
You looked into the eyes of men above you
I was the one who really tried to love you

One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love's a loaded gun
Red Lights
Stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when you play with danger
Sometimes love's a loaded gun
And it shoots to kill

I tried to look the other way and fake it
You pushed me to the limit
I can't take it

11. Love Takes

And when you went away,
Told myself I'd be alright,
I felt the safe of day
Pull me into night,
Feels like a million years,
Maybe I exaggerate,
And now the cost is clear,
Since I found a way,
To lose you like the rain.

Love take forgiveness,
Love takes understanding, too,
Love takes forgiveness,
But that don't mean I'm
Forgiving you,
That don't mean I'm
Forgiving you.

You said I was to blame,
I feel inside it's you,
It's such a stupid game,
But I don't like to lose,
We couldn't compromise,
Issues of neither win,
I slept inside your lie,
See the shape I'm in?
I won't be back again...
I'm not sorry I won't be home,
I'm out running through
The freedom zone,
All alone

12. Back Under Fire

Sometimes I lay here,
A victim of the night,
Caught between the anger
Of another firefight,
Caught up and hot inside
Like a loaded gun,
I'm gonna be your hand
Grenade, your guillotine
Above, I might sleep
With the enemy tonight,
I'll pull the trigger when
I get you in my sight...

Well I'm back under fire,
Watch the bullets flyin'
Straight to the heart again,
Back under fire,
Love's a battle cry,
And I'm gonna fight 'till I win,
Back under fire.

Out on the front lines standin'
Face to face,
Behind your camouflage see
Right through your game,
I'm out to get you
Like a sniper in the dark,
Takin' aim, there's no escape,
I'm gunnin' for your heart,
I won't be taken by your
Strategy tonight,
I got my battle plan,
I'll take you by surprise.

I'm holdin' my fire,
I'm caught in a truce for tonight...
