2. Gone Too Far

You wrapped me 'round your finger
You got me under your spell
With every new day's dawning
I'm one step closer to hell
So let me tell you my story

And I won't tell you no lies
To I've lost my glimpse of reason
In the arms of an
Angel's disguise

And every time you come my way
Read my lips, the words I say
For you just crossed
The point of no return

You've gone too far
Yes you've gone too far
You can't turn back time
I draw the line
'Cuz of the way you are
You've gone too far

You've gone too far
Yes you've gone too far
I do know your game
I won't take the blame
Any longer now
You've gone too far

You were my little princess
Guess I was too blind too see
There's something I can't get over
How could this happen to me

Within your use and abusing
You cut me down to the bone
Get someone else to save your lies for
To I'll find the way out on my own

And every time you come my way
Read my lips, the words I say
For you just crossed
The point of no return

You've gone too far
Yes you've gone too far
You can't turn back time
I draw the line
'Cuz of the way you are
You've gone too far

You've gone too far
Yes you've gone too far
I do know your game
I won't take the blame
Any longer now
You've gone too far

3. Domino Effect

I light a spark and you feed the flame
The whole world's on fire
I say a word, then you say the same
Now we're all in the choir

And one thing's for sure
Still ain't a cure
To defeat the human chain
Truth is, my friend
It will never end
It's been like this before

The story goes on
They fall one by one
Trying' to stand but the game's just begun
From the first one in line
To the last in no time
And it seems there's no way to reject
The domino effect

News travels fast, like words on the street
We're tearing walls down
So easy to affect, we tend to believe
What might come around

And one thing's for sure
Still ain't a cure
And there's nothing you can do
Truth is, my friend
It will never end
And it's been like this before

The story goes on
They fall one by one
Trying' to stand but the game's just begun
From the first one in line
To the last in no time
And it seems there's no way to reject
The domino effect
The domino effect...

4. Falling

Wasting my days on wondering why
Searching for answers of possible lies
Knowing the reasons, but hiding the truth
Now at the end all I miss is just you
Falling
I'm falling
Down down down into the blue
I'm falling
While searching for someone like you

Day after day, I've been running away
From possible story's of girl of the day
Spending my time on blowing my mind
Searching for someone, when "the one" was mine...

I'm falling
Down down down into the blue
I'm falling
While searching for someone like you
While searching for someone like you
While knowing there's no one like you

Sorry if I turned
Your life into hell
Sorry 'cause it ended that way
I wonder if you will
Then forgive me one day
Can't stand any longer this pain

I'm falling
Down down down into the blue
I'm falling
While searching for someone like you
While searching for someone like you
While knowing there's no one like you

5. The Call

Don't call me up,
I won't answer this time
You've had your chances
And you blew them all, so fine.

No, I won't regret it
I won't take this note on me
I'll try, try to forget it
Yes I'm already on my way!

But higher they cry
The harder they crawl
I've been waiting for this moment to come
I've played all my cards
The stake was on you
Now they raise a single reason to stay
Wait for the call

You know I'm tough, I give up
I'm afraid that I could lose again
But hey, it's not an illusion
That's just a price I've got to pay

But higher they fly
The harder they fall
I've been waiting for this moment to come
I've played all my cards
The stake was on you
Now they raise a single reason to stay
And wait for your call

To wait for Your Call....no!

But higher they fly
The harder they fall
I've been waiting for this moment to come
I've played all my cards
The stake was on you
Now they raze a single reason to stay

But higher they fly
The harder they fall

I've been waiting...yeaah!
For you to take over!
And just filled your love just waiting for someone to call...

6. The Oscar Goes To...

Who are you?
Who are you in this masquerade?
Is your love
Just a part of a scene that you play?
I can see you and me
Living our separate worlds.
Are you for real
Or is still something that I shouldn't know?

Applauding faces
My heart grown traces
And I'm in need to really understand.

There's something about you, girl,
That makes you mysterious.
I'm out of my head so what am I to do?
I'm on to you!
There's something about your touch
That makes me delirious.
It's hard to believe if all they say it's true.
The Oscar goes to you!

Was too bad, from the start, you hiding emotions.
I'm confused
'Cause you're almost too good to be true.

The stars are falling
Cameras rolling
It seems like you've been acting all the time!

Ohh
There's something about you, girl,
That makes you mysterious.
I'm out of my head so what am I to do?
I'm on to you!
There's something about your touch
That makes me delirious.
It's hard to believe if all they say it's true.
The Oscar goes to you!

There's something about you, girl,
That makes you mysterious.
I'm out of my head so what am I to do?

The Oscar goes to you!

The Oscar goes to you!
The Oscar goes to you!!!

7. The Cruiser (Judgement Day)

Home again,
I've been away for so long
Lost somewhere, my destination unknown

Mile after mile
I tried to run from myself
Knowing that time is a healer to what I have dealt

But now I know that time has come to face the truth
I can't escape the shadows of the past
Here I am, I'm just a man, so forgive me now

N' now that I'm ready to fight
I'll prove to you I was right
If you got nothin' better to say
I'll be on my way...
Should have known
All though I knew from the start
Right & wrong, no they don't get along

To many rhymes and wasted times with you my friend
I'll let you know I've learned my lesson well
I'll take control, relieve my soul, to my destiny

N' now that you know I can fight
I proved to you I was right
If you got nothin' better to say
Then I'll be on my way...

But now I know that time has come to face the truth
I can't escape the shadows of the past
Here I am, I'm just a man, so forgive me now

N' now that I'm ready to fight
I'll prove to you I was right
If you got nothin' better to say
I'm ready for Judgment Day...

8. Heal Me

Take off your mask now, show me your face
Don't shun away without leaving no trace
What is your secret, you're bright as the sun
You got me begging like you're holding a gun

I want you, I need you
But you keep running from my sight
I'm yearning, I'm burning
Why can't you hear my prayer

Heal me, feel me
I'm loosing control when you're near me
Still I'm dreaming
You'll take my lonely nights away

You're smiling from fashion and top magazines
Looking so hot on every screen
Gimme a chance, let me prove it to you
I'll do anything that you want me to do

I want you, I need you
But you keep running from my sight
I'm yearning, I'm burning
Why don't you try to please me

Heal me, feel me
I'm loosing control when you're near me
Still I'm dreaming
You'll take my lonely nights away

Just tell me a good reason why we shouldn't try
There ain't a better time but now
If my crime is to love you, then I plead guilty babe
I feel the hunger rising deep inside
Stronger day by day

Heal me, feel me
I'm loosing control when you're near me
Still I'm dreaming
You'll take my lonely nights away
Come on and
Heal me, feel me
I'm loosing control when you're near me
Still I'm dreaming
You'll take my lonely nights away

10. Tomorrow's Just Begun

Raise your head n' look around you
You may not like what you see
A heavy load upon your shoulders
And you won't get anything for free

Live your life, your one and only
Don't let anyone control it
It's in your hands, you can decide it
'cuz tomorrow's just begun

You feel you can't go on this way
Just remember you can find me here
Every time the blue sky solour turns to grey

It's in your hands, and the way you ride it

YOu'll hear the echoes of the past
Don't look back to all you've done before

Don't let anyone control it
It's in your hands, you can decide it
Oh, 'cuz tomorrow's just begun
'cuz tomorrow's just

11. Come Alive

I'm no angel, I'm no sinner
Just an ordinary man
And I try to live my life the best I can
Come
When the night is taking over
There's a place I want to be
Where the rhythm is the flesh for fantasy

I come alive, come alive, come alive
Keep the good times rollin'

Could it be love, could it be love now
Could it be love, could it be love now

I come alive, come alive, come alive
When you dance the night away
The only thing that gets me through the day

You got moves that make me shiver
I'm about to loose control
You fill my hunger, body heart and soul

And my world is dressed in velvet
It's filled with neon light
No, I don't mind another sleepless night

I come alive, come alive, come alive
Keep the good times rollin'

Could it be love, could it be love now
Could it be love, could it be love now

I come alive, come alive, come alive
When you dance the night away
The only thing that gets me through the day

12. Bad To The Bone

Here I come, get out of my way
Better lock the doors, you all
Good time's over now
Mr, "nice guy" left the hall

I spent a life in misbelief
Trusted everyone
Those days are over by now

Cause I'm
Bad to the bone
Bad, bad, bad
Bad to the bone
Yes I am...

I've been used, got confused
And paid for most of all
Then left outside alone
With my back against the wall
Cheaters, cons and profiteers
Companions all my life
Ain't gonna take it no more

Now I'm
Bad to the bone
Bad, bad, bad
Bad to the bone....
Oh yeah!

I'm not asking for salvation
Just don't want to play your game
Of "hit n' run" again
Grab the most you can
Don't even try, gimme no lie
The damage is done, get on your knees and pray...

There's a time for all....
Don't you dare to come my way...
Now you should, take a good advice
Cuz you know you gonna get my surprise...

13. Now

There ain't a single day without you
On my mind
From the very start I knew
That you're one of a kind

And every passing day to come
I feel I'm incomplete
I need to have you closer
To give you what you need

I'd walk
On broken glass to you
To find out
You really want me too

Now, I'm on fire
I tremble with desire
I'm in for something real
Now I feel strong
I know it won't take long
Till I see you come my way
And make you mine someday

There ain't a single night without you
In my dreams
We must have met in a past life, baby
That's the way it seems

And every time I call your name
My heart beats like a drum
It's getting louder everyday
And it's only just begun

I'd walk
On broken glass to you
To find out
You really want me too

Now, I'm on fire
I tremble with desire
I'm in for something real
Now I feel strong
I know it won't take long
Till I see you come my way
And make you mine someday

14. Where Is Love When It's Gone

This is the life that we get
These are the cards that we've been dealt
Why do we doubt, when we should turn our way

There's only one shot, one chance
It can be done within a glance
Together we go, it's a walk on this wire

I don't want to believe that we're givin' up
On a world that's growing cold
The story's getting old

Where is love when it's gone with the wind
and a saint would turn to sin
Where is love when a kid's gotta run
in a blaze from a gun
Where is love when a man has to say
I see my whole life fade away
Where is love when the hate is too strong
Where is love when it's gone

Is it beyond the sea
Does it hide beneath the willow tree
Waiting for us to get back where we're from

Hope you will forgive us for what we've done
We don't know where to begin
We're too numb to take it in

Where is love when it's gone with the wind
and a saint would turn to sin
Where is love when a kid's gotta run
in a blaze from a gun
Where is love when a friend fades away
On the streets where we used to play
Where is love when the hate is too strong
Where is love when it's gone
