There ain't no surrender I can't find no release I gotta getta make my move Get the pain away from me Some kinda voodoo Take control on my mind I must have been blind Cause I didn't see the sign Now I'm livin' on borrowed time Standing at the crossroads And I believe that I'm Sinking down Waitin' on tomorrow No time for sorrow Good God gotta even up the score Made a deal with the devil Got a pusher at the back door There's something inside of me Something that wants to be free I know my time is at hand You were no part of my master plan There's something inside of me Something that wants to be free I know my time is at hand You were no part of my master plan Get out You know good lovin' That's the one thing you got And I know I been taken for a fool but I'm not Some kind of voodoo

I don't believe in anything Realize Dry my eyes Live in Hell No blue skies Lonely tears Empty space Oh I don't believe in anything I just don't believe in anything And they say that it might be fine But the sun still refuse to shine So I run take my soul away On my knees I pray For a better day And I run to catch up with you But I see that there ain't no use So I'll dream for a better day And they say that it might be fine But the sun still refuse to shine So I run take my soul away On my knees I pray for a better day And I run to catch up with you But I see that it ain't no use So I'll dream of a better way On my knees I pray for a better day Mission bell Someone dies Bloody hell No surprise Have to sin Just to win Oh I don't believe in anything Realize Dry my eyes Live in Hell No blue skies Lonely tears Empty space Oh I don't believe in anything I just don't believe in anything I don't believe in anything I just don't believe in anything I don't believe in anything I just don't believe in anything I don't believe in anything I just don't believe in anything Life has changed Rearranged Nothin' left Not the same

Sunset, I'll take it for a little while He got his mind on my money Yeah, my money's on the mind of the killing kind Black hearted evil on the west side I close my eyes and pray Just one more time Don't let me die Poor boy I lost control of my will last night Strange ways I see the sun rise early But I still can't see the light Some people say it's just like suicide There's a cold wind blowing trough my heart I'm about to lose my mind Black hearted evil on the west side I close my eyes and pray Just one more time Don't let me die Don't wanna die Black days I don't wanna be here no more No way I got the devil in my soul And I can't take anymore Sunset, I'll take it for a little while He got his mind on my money Yeah, my money's on the mind of the killing kind Black hearted evil on the west side I close my eyes and pray Just one more time Don't let me die Black days (2) Black hearted evil on the west side I close my eyes (2)

Jesus and the Mary Chain Heaven help my mind's deranged Evil thoughts that fuel the fire Burning passion-bad desire I hear her-she calls me I see her-she haunts me Deceiving bad feeling I feel my eyes are bleeding Jesus and the Mary Chain Heaven help my mind's deranged Evil thoughts that fuel the fire Burning passion-bad desire I never wanted to hear her scream I only wanted some company I kept her locked in a box for awhile Some people think that I'm nice cause I'm smile And I smile for awhile But they don't know me Ha ha ha ha Jesus and the Mary Chain Heaven help my mind's deranged Evil thoughts that fuel the fire Burning passion-bad desire Jesus and the Mary Chain Heaven help my mind's deranged Evil thoughts that fuel the fire Burning passion-bad desire I'm weary-sincerely ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8) Do Or Die (Sykes) I gotta 12 gauge shotgun Loaded like a freight train I've killed a mean motherfucker And I've chartered me an airplane I don't know if I'll make it to the end of the line Living on the edge Cause, I can't do a lifetime ... not this time Gonna run like the wind You won't see me again Broken wings can't hold me down Pack my bags get outta town Got my guns by my side They won't take me alive Now it's time to make my stand A rebel with a losing hand This ain't the way I planned it Do or die On I think I'm going down I'm running undercover And they say I don't stand a chance There's only one way out That's headed for the promised land I don't know if I'll make it to the end of the line Living on the edge Cause, I can't do a lifetime......not this time Gonna run like the wind You won't see me again Broken wings can't hold me down Pack my bags get outta town Got my guns by my side They won't take me alive Now it's time to make my stand A rebel with a losing hand This ain't the way I planned it Do or die Look out! Living on the wildsides Better than the jail time Ain't no looking back Cause I think I'm gonna crack Gonna push it to the edge Gonna walk on the ledge I got one last shot to get you Gonna run like the wind You won't see me again Broken wings can't hold me down Pack my bags get outta town Got my guns by my side They won't take me alive Now it's time to make my stand A rebel with a losing hand Gonna run like the wind You won't see me again Broken wings can't hold me down Pack my bags get outta town Got my guns by my side They won't take me alive Now it's time to make my stand A rebel with a losing hand This ain't the way I planned it Do or die ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 9) If You Ever Need Love (Sykes) Darling there ain't nothing here without you Baby do you want my love Your sweetness I just couldn't live without you Baby do you want my love Starting here right now I don't know if I'm up or I'm down But I'll tell you the one thing that's true On my knees I've been prayin' Cause I don't know what to do But if you ever need love I'm here Always The love that you once chanced Left you here without a trace Baby do you want my love I tried to warn you form the start He'd fool around and break your heart Baby do you want my love Starting here right now I don't know if I'm up or I'm down You don't know how my heart beats for you On my knees I've been prayin' Cause I don't know what to do But if you ever need love I'm here Always You've gotta a strong girl Time will case the pain I know you feel weak girl But let those feelings fade Oh let me hold you one more time Before you go away I've been waitin' Holdin' on Each and every day Baby I'm beggin' on my knees for you Giving you my heart I got this feeling deep inside It just won't be denied Baby do you want my love I wanna take you by the hand And lead you through a wonderland Baby do you want my love Starting here right now I don't know if I'm up or I'm down But I'll tell you the one thing that's true On my knees I've been prayin' Cause I don't know what to do But if you ever need love I'm here Always But if you ever need love I'm here Always But if you ever need love I'm here Always ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 10) Sleep On (Sykes) Sundays I hate most of all Monday wake up early morning call Still my eyes they want to sleep on Without warning I protest Kick the dog that tripped me Down the stairs And my eyes they want to sleep on Monday morning I've got Friday on my mind I can't hesitate or even wait to really unwind How does it make you feel I feel okay Dreaming your days away Ain't no better way Aren't you just wasting time This is my life Don't ask no questions why Take a ride on cloud nine Now that's my idea of a real fine time I'll just sail away On a distant mind trip any old time of the day Boss man he say go too slow I say man it's time for me to go Cause my eyes they wanna sleep on Monday morning I've got Friday on my mind I can't hesitate or even wait to really unwind How does it make you feel I feel okay Dreaming your days away Ain't no better way Aren't you just wasting time This is my life Don't ask no questions why ------------------------------------------------------------------------
