Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
people think that I'm insane because I am frowning all the time

All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
'Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel like love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to end your life, I wish I could but it's too late

Standing at the crossroads,
World spinning round and round
Know which way I'm going,
You can't bring me down
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in

I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want to world to change me

Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
For telling all the people the original sin
He says he knows you better than you'll ever know him

I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want to world to change me

You know it ain't easy
You know it ain't fair
So don't try and please me
Because I really don't care

Don't tell me stories
'Cause yesterday's glories
Have gone away, so far away
I've heard it said there's light up ahead
Lord I hope and pray
I'm here to stay

Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in

I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want to world to change me
I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want to world to change me

I've always knew what I wanted to be
I knew for sure,
I knew for sure
Always knew it was them or me
I wanted more,
More and more
It's all right,
It's o.k.
None of them people gonna take it away
They don't know,
Like I know
And I can't stop
'Cause it drives them crazy

It drives them crazy,
'Cause I won't be cool
It's too late baby

It's the same old desire
Nothing has changed,
Nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain

Always moving,
Somewhere else to be
Moving on,
Moving on
Scream at you and you scream at me
Right or wrong,
Right or wrong
It's all right,
It's o.k.
No one's ever gonna take us away
'Cause they don't know,
Like I know
I gotta keep rockin',
'Cause it makes me crazy

It makes me crazy,
Who needs to be cool
Life's amazing

It's the same old desire
Crazy train, crazy train
Nothing has changed,
Nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Same old desire
Nothing has changed,
Nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Oh yeah

It's the same old desire
Nothing has changed,
Nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Same old desire
Crazy train, crazy train
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain

Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head
Ohhhh...Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all

You fooled all the people with magic
Yeah you waited on Satan's call
Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth
Conceived in the eye of a secret
And they scattered the afterbirth
Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse
Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course
Approaching a time that is classic
I hear that maidens call
Approaching a time that is drastic
Standing with their backs to the wall
Was it polemically sent
l wanna know what you meant
I wanna know
I wanna know what you meant
yeahhhh....

People look to me and say
Is the end near, when is the final day
What's the future of mankind
How do I know, I got left behind

Everyone goes through changes
Looking to find the truth
Don't look at me for answers
Don't ask me---I don't know

How am I supposed to know
Hidden meanings that will never show
Fools and prophets from the past
Life's a stage and we're all in the cast

Ya gotta believe in someone asking me who is right
Asking me who to follow, don't ask me, I don't know
I don't know---I don't know---I don't know

Nobody ever told me I found out for myself
Ya gotta believe in foolish miracles
It's not how you play the game
It's if you win or lose you can choose
Don't confuse, win or lose, it's up to you
It's up to you---It's up to you---It's up to you

SOLO

Repeat

I was looking back on my life
And all the things I've done to me
I'm still looking for the answers
I'm still searching for the key

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?

The road to nowhere leads to me

Through all the happiness and sorrow
I guess I'd do it all again
Live for today and not tomorrow
It's still the road that never ends

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?

The road to nowhere leads to me

Ah, ah
The road to nowhere's gonna pass me by
Ah, ah
I hope we never have to say goodbye
I never want to live without you

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?

The road to nowhere leads to me

Repeat x6

Yesterday has been and gone
Tomorrow will I find the sun
Or will it rain
Everybody's having fun
Except for me I'm the lonely one
I live in shame

[Chorus]
I say
Goodbye to romance, yeah
Goodbye to friends,
Goodbye to all the Past
I guess that we'll meet
We'll meet in the end

I've been the king
I've been the clown
No broken wings can hold me down
I'm free again
The jester with a broken crown
It won't be me this time around
To love in vain

[Chorus]

I feel the time is right
Although I know you just might
Say to me
Whatcha gonna do
Whatcha gonna do
But I had to take this chance goodbye
To friends and to romance
And to all of you
And to all of you

[Chorus]

And the weather's looking fine
And I think the sun will shine again
And I feel I've cleared my mind
All the past is left behind again

[Chorus]

The light in the window is a crack in the sky
A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye
A levee of tears to learn she'll never be coming back
The man in the dark will bring another attack

Your momma told you that you're not supposed to talk to strangers
Look in the mirror and tell me do you think your life's in danger yeah

CHORUS
No more tears (echo) (x4)

Another day passes as the night closes in
The red light goes on to say it's time to begin

I see the man around the corner waiting, can he see me?
I close my eyes and wait to hear the sound of someone screaming here

CHORUS

It's just a sign of the times
Going forward in reverse
Still
He who laughs last
Is just a hand in the bush

So now that it's over can we just say goodbye?
(I'd like)
(I'd like)
I'd like to move on and make the most of the night
Maybe a kiss before I leave you this way
Your lips are so cold I don't know what else to say

I never wanted it to end this way my love my darling
Believe me when I say to you in love I think I'm falling here

CHORUS

Is just a hand in the bush (echo w/ fadeout)

Screams break the silence
Waking from the dead of night
Vengence is boiling
He's Returned to kill the light
Then when he's found who he's looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon!

Ha ha ha!

Years spent in torment
Buried in a nameless grave
Now he has risen
Miracles would have to save
Those that the beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon!
Hey, yeah, bark at the moon!

They cursed and buried him
Along with shame
And thought his timeless soul had gone
In empty burning hell - Unholy One
But he's returned to prove them wrong, so wrong
Yeah baby!

Howling in shadows
Living in a lunar spell
He finds his Heaven
Spewing from the mouth of Hell

Those that the beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him
Bark at the moon!
Hey, yeah, bark at the moon!
Hey, yeah, bark at the moon!
Oh, oh, yeah, bark at the moon!

Howwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwl!

Times have changed and times are strange
Here I come, but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home
Times gone by seem to be
You could have been a better friend to me
Mama, I'm coming home

You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes

You made me cry, you told me lies
But I can't stand to say goodbye
Mama, I'm coming home
I could be right, I could be wrong
Hurts so bad, it's been so long
Mama, I'm coming home

Selfish love yeah we're both alone
The ride before the fall
But I'm gonna take this heart of stone
I just got to have it all

CHORUS
I've seen your face a hundred times
everyday we've been apart
I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'Cause Mama, Mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home

You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes

Repeat Chorus *2

All aboard, hah hah

Aye, aye, aye

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love and forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers, I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words
Yeah

Heirs of a cold war, that's what we've become
Inheriting troubles, I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Out on the street
I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill
But it doesn't seem right
Something there I can't believe in

Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them
I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you

Taught by the powers
That preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn't listen
I learnt how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason

But just like the wounded
And when it's too late
They'll remember
They'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
A shot in the dark
Nothing that you can do
A shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you
All right
