1. On The Inside

A face to hide your cause
Like pretty camouflage
A face that i believe
Is down inside of me

A face for all your fun
Deny your need to Run
A face of Parody
Is it all you'll ever be

No I'm not the one who let you down
You never want it to show

The only other face never seen
Who you are on the inside
The only other face in my dream
Who you are on the inside

A face to stake your claim
Like you own everything
My faith in you still bleeds
Down inside of me

Oh, Whose gonna save you when your down
You never, Know why you cant let it show

The only other face never seen
Who you are on the inside
The only other face in my dream
Who you are on the inside
I need you the Real You
The one I cant see, Show me your in there
Cause I have looked everywhere

No, I'm not the one who let you down, (you never)
You never want it to show

The only other face never seen
Who you are on the inside
The only other face in my dream
Who you are on the inside

Yeah, The only other face never seen
Who you are on the inside
The only other face in my dream
Who you are on the inside
Yeah yeah
Who you are on the inside

2. Blind Revolution Mad
Into this world
Little boy brave
Charity heart
Faithfully plays
Heal the scars
Unto his eyes
Salvage the goodness
Of dreams never lived
Dreams never died
Again and again
Again and again
Haunted by the trust of a child
With no place to go now
Little boy brave
Wanders the streets
Faithfully plays
But his broken arrows
Once filled with pride
Aimed and missed
At the dreams never lived
Dreams never died
Again and again
Again and again
Haunted by the trust of a child
Never give in
Never give up
Little boy brave
Never lived
Never died

Appears to be
Blind Revolution Mad
The mercy ends
Where the mercy began
Seems justified
I'm turnin' this around
Jawbreaker Lawmaker
Have it your way

Campaign smokescreen
Glorifies the mainstream
Cities on remote control
Meanwhile vigilante gangs
Dig their fangs into the streets
They've overthrown
While plastic faces
Run for king of this
Disassociation land
I'm dying to find
Anyone who understands
Behold........

One more Blind Revolution Mad
One more chance of a lifetime

Rage runs rampant
Always been abandoned
Killin' for some pocket change
Blames being force fed rules
Governed by fools
Slammin' you against the grain
And the nation's glued to CNN
To watch their own creation
Behold

One more Blind Revolution Mad
One more chance of a lifetime
One more Blind Revolution Mad

Fee Fi Fo Fum
One for all and all for one
Don't try to stop me
I've already gone crazy
One for all and all for one
Overthrow your kingdom come
Don't try to stop me
You're the reason I'm crazy
Behold

One more Blind Revolution Mad
One more chance of a lifetime
One more Blind Revolution Mad
Mind in the gutter turned
another boy bad
Oh behold

3. Down Incognito
Days undercover, All out of sync
Haven't paid the rent Even talking in my sleep
My monkey's M.O.
Is all out of commission
I'm waiting for a good old-fashioned cure
For my condition

'Cos I'm all out of charm
And I'm all out of money
Hanging
Down Incognito
Waiting for the sun to shine

Fools to the left
Jokers to the right
Waitin' for the rest of us
To come and take a bite
But I'll wait it out
Call it superstition
I'll be fine for now
Just reminiscing

Chorus;
'Cos I'm all out of charm
And I'm all out of money
Hanging
Down Incognito
Waiting for the sun to shine

I just had to let it go
Took all the pennies I had
Threw 'em in the wishing well
And I wish you well

Days undercover, All out of sync
Haven't paid the rent
Even talking in my sleep
My monkey's M.O.
Is all out of commission
I'm waiting for a good
old-fashioned cure
For my condition

Chorus;
'Cos I'm all out of charm
And I'm all out of money
Hanging
Down Incognito
Waiting for the sun to shine

Me and my amigos
Down Incognito

4. Spell I'm Under
Woman
Never before
Without a word
I hear so much

Woman
Under the spell
Every sin
Holy in your touch
It's all I feel
It's all I see
And all I know
It must be you
You're the spell I'm under
You're the spell I'm under

Woman
How deep can I go
Every inch born a new obsession

Woman
How did you know
That I couldn't have helped myself
From comin' closer
To the oracle of faith taboo
All my temptation
Hooked on
You-
You're the spell I'm under
Must be you
You're the spell I'm under
Feels like a drug
My will revealed in your spell
I remember...
You're all I feel
You're all I see
Revolving in the need for
You-
You're the spell I'm under
I know it must be you
You're the spell I'm under
Feels like a drug
Didn't take very long

5. Who's The One
When all the colors begin to fade
And the imitations turn to gray
When the Iron Man begins to rust
And the Holy Water turns to dust

What will be your savior now
Dragon or machine
Who will wear the crown of thorns
In Mother Nature's dream

Who's the one
Who claimed my liberty
Robbed my soul of freedom
How long must I put up with the
Unholy sound of your gun
Tell me, brother

When believers start to lose the faith
And the naked army falls from grace
When all extremes return to one
See them melt into the setting sun

The bounty on the rebel's heart
Washed away the pride
Drove the voice a million miles
Across the great divide

Who's the one
Who claimed my liberty
Robbed my soul of freedom
Who's the one
Who denied my eyes to see
Truth behind double tongue
Who's the one

Who claimed my liberty
Robbed my soul of freedom
How long must I put up with the
Unholy sound of your gun
Tell me, brother

The bounty on the rebel's heart
Washed away the pride
Drove the voice a million miles
Across the great divide

Who's the one
Who claimed my liberty
Robbed my soul of freedom
Who's the one
Who denied my eyes to see
Truth behind double tongue
Who's the one
Who claimed my liberty
Robbed my soul of freedom
How long must I put up with the
Unholy sound of your gun
Tell me, brother

6. Junkyard Dog(Tearson Stone)
So you never meant lettin' it
go this far
The lifestyle that seemed so charmin'
You couldn't see
They saw you comin'
Buried you in their sin
Promisin' ecstasy
You were so blind
Look out

'Cos now the dog's inside you
The Junkyard Dog speaks for you
Ain't no master of the Junkyard Dog

How does it feel to live
Where there's no dimension
I wonder if it was ever your
intention
A straight -A- student
Straight down the drain
Master of the mainline
Keeper of the ball and chain
You were so blind
Look what you've done now
Rolled the dice
For paradise
Damn you for taking bad advice

(Repeat Chorus)

Frozen there jackknifed forever
In the foaming jaw
And invisible claw
Ain't no master of the Junkyard Dog
Ain't no master

Now you're gone
What an irony
My friend I feel not much sympathy
No one could tame you
You wouldn't listen
Voices in your head
Screaming absolute submission

And now the dog's inside you
The Junkyard Dog speaks for you
Ain't no master of the Junkyard Dog
Frozen there jackknifed forever
In the foaming jaw
And invisible claw
Ain't no master of the Junkyard Dog

You were blind
Look what you've done now
Rolled the dice
For paradise
Damn you for taking bad advice
Baby ain't no master of the Junk

I guess my pride got the best of me
But it would have taken a war
To get through to you
I know I'd walked out too soon
When I found you on the floor

No it's never been the same
The dreams they come
They never change
Nothing left but my tears falling
on stone
No it's never been the same
Guess I've only got myself to blame
See the nest
The bird has flown
There's nothing left
But my tears falling on stone
....say goodbye....

I guess my pride got the best of me
There's nothing left but the tears
Falling on stone
Damn you for taking bad advice

7. Hell To Pay

8. Can't Get Enuff
You don't make it easy, you never keep it straight
But you're so damn sexy, I can't keep away
I need your love, I need your skin
I need you baby to let me in

I can't get enough of you baby
I can't get enough, it's never enough
I can't get enough, I'm still hungry
Baby, give it up, cause I can't get enough

It's alright, it feels good
When I'm in your chains, it's understood
That you're my owner, my only will
Come and get me while I'm quiet and still

I can't get enough of you baby
I can't get enough, it's never enough
I can't get enough, I'm still hungry
Baby, give it up, don't you know

I can't get enough of you baby

Can't get enough of you baby
Never enough, do you want to give me some?
Can't get enough, don't keep me waiting
Never enough

(Put it right here)

I can't get enough of you baby

Can't get enough of you baby
Never enough, do you want to give me some?
Can't get enough, don't keep me waiting
Never enough


It's alright, it feels good
When I'm in your chains, it's understood
My soul confession, devil's due
Come and get me girl, it's up to you

9. Under One Condition
She's looking in the eye of a mind made up that the
Pain will last forever

And he's headed for a heart
All closed up
Will you ever open up?
She said: never

What is the secret to
Keeping your head and your promises? (oh)

I'll mend your broken heart (she said)
Under one condition
If I lift you up, you'll never let me down
Darling under one condition

She stares at the sky
Wondering why the night
Isn't telling her: believe him
If he could only read to her the pages of his heart
She could see they feel the same

Learning the secret to
Keeping their heads and their promises (oh)

I'll mend your broken heart (he said)
Under one condition
If I let you in, you'll never push me out
Darling under one condition
This is my one, this is my one condition

He's getting closer and she's getting closer
Just one more question, one more answer
It was all they ever wanted

10. Easy Come Easy Go
If you start to feel like there's no time to waste 
baby try to let go
There's nothin' that strong, can't break your heart
easy come easy go
And the only only only way to find it
Is if you're not diggin' too deep
though it's easier said than done
You've got to feel it in your blood
play the game like you've already won
And you'll only only only own it when you say

Chorus:
Easy come easy go, this won't break my heart, don't ya know
Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go

You fell in a trap that won't let you win, you try again and again
You let the heat burn your feet, baby try to understand
That you'll only only only own it when you say

Chorus

So if you start to feel like there's no time to waste
baby try to let go
There's nothin' so strong, can't break your heart
Sometimes high, sometimes low
And you'll only only only own it when you say

Chorus
Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go
(Easy come easy go) If you're not diggin' too deep
Easy come, easy go (easy come easy go)

11. Rainbow In The Rose
Deep inside my hunger grows
Got to find the rainbow in the rose

Somewhere the spirit shines
Like the moonlight - I move on....
Somewhere the spirit shines - but
I'm still....

Searching for the rainbow in the rose
Rainbow in the rose
If you can lead the way, than baby I will follow
Searching for...
I'm still looking for the
Rainbow in the rose

In the howling wind I first heard the voice
To be free again, it said
Find the rainbow in the rose

Somewhere the spirit shines
Like a holy light - we move on....
Someday it will be mine - but
I'm still....

Searching for the rainbow in the rose
Rainbow in the rose
If you can lead the way, than baby I will follow
Searching for...
I'm still looking through the window at the...

Rainbow in the rose
Owner of my devotion
The deeper my hunger grows - oh
Got to look inside, got to try to find the
Rainbow in the.... rose

Searching for the rainbow in the rose
If you can lead the way, than baby I will follow
To find the rainbow
I'm just looking through the window at the
Rainbow in the rose....

12. Miles Away
So this is love or so you tell me
As you're walkin' out the door
Months go by and I know for certain
It's not the love I'm lookin' for

Some times just for a moment
I reach out hope you're still there

Miles away
No you're never turnin' back
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away
Nothin' left of what we had
Just when I needed you most
You were miles away...

It's hard to tell what you're goin' through
You kept your feelings locked inside of you
Open your heart and chances are
What you're feelin' I'm feelin' too

If only just for a moment
Hold on to the dreams that we had

Miles away
No you're never turnin' back
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away
Nothin' left of what we had
Just when I needed you most
You were miles away

When times were tough and you were down and out
Who was there by your side?
Now you've gone I'm so tired of bein' alone
With only your promises...

Loneliness just fades away
Thoughts of you just memories
No cryin' now for what we're missin'
Time won't forget what you meant to me

Hold me just for a moment
Hold on to the dreams that we had

Miles away
No you're never turnin' back
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away
Nothin' left of what we had
Just when I needed you most whoa-oh
Miles away
No; you're never turnin' back
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away
Nothin' left of what we had
Just when I needed you most...

You were miles away...

13. Seventeen
Yeah, I saw sparks fly
From the corner of my eye
And when I turned
It was love at first sight
I said please excuse me
I didn't catch your name
It'd be a shame
Not to see you again

And just when I thought
She was coming to my door
She whispered sweet
And brought me to the floor
She said

Chorus:
I'm only seventeen
I'll show you love like you've never seen
She's only seventeen
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough for me

Come to my place
We can talk it over
Everything going down in your head
She said take it easy
I need some time
Time to work it out
To make you mine

And just when I thought
She was coming to my door
She whispered sweet
And brought me to the floor
She said,

Chorus:
I'm only seventeen
You ain't seen love
Ain't seen nothing like me
She's only seventeen
Seventeen

Such a bad girl
Loves to work me over time
Feels good
Dancin' close to the borderline
She's a magic mountain
She's a leather glove
She's my soul
It must be love

Chorus:
She's only seventeen
The girl she gives me love like I've never seen
She's only seventeen
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough for me
Seventeen
She's everything I need
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough
Old enough for me

14. Madalaine
Such tender eyes
Such a sweet believer
The story never lies
When I found you girl
You were so far down
A black cat in disguise

How in the world could it come to this
Couldn't you see that you've gone too far
Saving your soul for that one last kiss
Living your wish upon a star

Chorus:
Madalaine
This is love too tough to tame
Madalaine
Beware of the girl
Beware of the pain

Running scared
Through the dark of the day
The story never dies
But the names keep changin'
And the faces fade
Take you dead or alive

How in the world could it come to this
Couldn't you see that you've gone too far
Saving your soul for that one last kiss
Living your wish upon a star

Chorus:
Madalaine
This is love too tough to tame
Madalaine
Beware of the girl
Beware of the pain

All of your glory was left like an angry child
Waiting to take your luck away
But you can't see you're still running wild
Oh Madalaine!!!
Now don't run away from me

Chorus:
Madalaine
This is love too tough to tame
Madalaine
Beware of the girl
Beware of the pain

Chorus:
Madalaine
This is love too tough to tame
Madalaine
Beware of the girl
Beware of the pain

15. Hungry
I hear the ticking on the clock
Counting everyday I've been alone
How long before you're coming back
If I don't see your face I'll turn to stone

Can't keep holding on this way
Can't go on another day
Can't you hear me when I say

Chorus:
Girl I'm Hungry for your love
Girl I'm hungry
Baby let me in
Hungry for your love
Hungry I can't get enough

Your love's the color of my heart
When I look in you eyes everything's so clear
So still together when we're apart
I begin to die unless you're here

Can't keep holding on this way
Can't go on another day
Can't you hear me when I say

Chorus:
Girl I'm hungry for your love
Girl I'm hungry
Baby let me in
Hungry for your love
Hungry I can't get enough

I lie awake all night
Can't stop remembering
You've got to make it right
I can't hold it in

HUNGRY

I hear the ticking on the clock
Counting everyday I've been alone...
Hungry

Chorus:
I'm hungry for your love
Girl I'm hungry I can't get enough
Hungry for your skin
Hungry baby let me in
Hungry for your love
Hungry!!!
I'm hungry for your love
Hungry...Oh no
Hungry

16. Headed For A Heartbreak
Morning came and I was on my way, when you reminded me
I had too soon forgotten, it was you who set me free
Yeah you were here when I came and you'll be here when I'm gone
So don't be waiting for love, 'cause I'll be waiting to ramble on
Headed for a heartbreak, headed for a heartbreak

Darling don't wait up for me, tonight I won't be home
You've become a stranger, I just got to be alone
Don't need nobody on my side to dull the blade I'm on
So don't be waiting for love, 'cause I'll be waiting to ramble on
Headed for a heartbreak, headed for a heartbreak, headed for a heartbreak
It's no mistake, don't you think I can feel the pain
I walk away to live again

Headed for a heartbreak, headed for a heartbreak, don't make me hurt you
Headed for a heartbreak, well I know that I'm headed for a heartbreak
Don't you think I feel the pain...
