Silver and gold
Silver and gold
bbcode
The lion
Silver and gold
Down the wire
You could be a king
After the storm
Misunderstood
Kid gone astray
Fallen heroes
Wishing your life away
Blood on the ocean
The lion
Late at night
Rain falling down
Sets my mind wandering
Took a drive on a highway
I saw you standing in the rain
Destiny was calling me
I would never be the same

You said you said your heart was aching, you were sad
I saw you cry, the night you lied to me, oh no!
You took my hand then faded with the light
They said you died out on the road that night

I'm in a cold cold sweat
Knuckles white upon the wheel
Danger flies on silent wings
I can't fight and I can't feel
Now I'm standing in the daylight
And it seems just like dream
If only I could touch you girl
But you're not there for real!

You said you said your heart was aching, you were sad
I saw you cry, the night you lied to me, oh no!
You took my hand then faded with the light
They said you died out on the road that night

Silver and gold
Darkness descending
Night coming down in the city
She walks the streets in search of fortune
Down in a doorway a man with no hope or pride
He can't go on, he can't survive
Out in the jungle called the city
You'll never make it on your own
You got to have that

Silver and gold see you grow old
Turn with your back to the wall
Silver and gold out in the cold
Run but there's nowhere to go

He's got no futre, all just because of his past
He's got a gun he's tired of talking
Hole in your pocket hole in your shoe
Chip on your shoulder you got that too
You steal a ride you're tired of talking

Out in the cold, cold winter city
You'll never make it on your own

Down the wire
Hearts on fire cause down the wire
Comes a voice from my past
My eyes ablaze I have no espace
It's a need I've got to ask

Believe right from the start
Hold on to waht you've got
Have faith in someone
Down the wire
Pure in spirit, strong at heart
Long in truth but short of the mark
I know you time  will come one day

Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart but you're next to me
Down the wire all the days
You been gone but you promised me
You can cross me a river, and you see what I do
Down the wire
Hearts on fire cause down the wire
Comes a voice from my past
Would I miss your touch, would I miss my own sight
There's a heart that's beating down the line tonight

Believe right from the start
Hold on to waht you've got
Have faith in someone
Down the wire
Pure in spirit, strong at heart
Long in truth but short of the mark
I know you time  will come one day

Down the wire comes my heart
Worlds apart but you're next to me
Down the wire all the days
You been gone but you promised me
You can cross me a river, and you see what I do
Down the wire

You can clibm me a mountain
And you'll see what I do

You could be a king
Memories in my mind, of another time
Now I feel it's right to share
The rebel in my soul is yours to tame
Life is not a cross we bear
Take a look around

Time flows like a river she goes
Make the best of what you've got
When a man is born into the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king but it don't mean a thing
If what's sin our heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it looks for you
Your heart strong and never broken
There's a city in the sky built for you and I
Keeps us dreaming on and on, on and on
Now I serach my soul, looking for a sign
Show you right where I went wrong
Take a look around

Time flows like a river she goes
Make the best of what you've got
When a man is born into the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king but it don't mean a thing
If what's sin our heart remains unspoken
Look for the truth before it looks for you
Your heart strong and never broken

Ride the storm, safe in your arms
Catch the sun to light your way

After the storm
I can still hear them crying for mercy
Screaming in anger
I can still see the face in the darkness
Mirror their pain
It was not their fault
But they suffer anyway

Life's cheap so they say when the time comes
To pay you'll be waiting the voice of a lost generation the cost
Is a crime
And history screams out but they do it anyway

Let the video roll cause you're burning
My soul with your message
The sound and the vision bring pictures
(Into my home)
And the children they cry; but life goes on anyway

Let the video roll cause you're burning
My soul with your message
The sound and the vision bring pictures
(Into my home)
And the children they cry; but life goes on anyway

You can see the thunder in her eyes
Even though the blood runs so cold
Keep a fire burning in your heart
After the storm
You can see the fire in her eyes
Soon the day will come when we will rise
Till then you'll have to tow the line
After the storm

I can still hear them crying for mercy
Screaming in pain
You're just a man with your head in the sand
Not to to blame
You're such a long way from here
Such a long way from here

If I  ever get out of here
Fall to my knees and say a prayer
If I ever get out of this place
Fall to my knees accept my fate

You can see the thunder in her eyes
Even though the blood runs so cold
Keep a fire burning in your heart
After the storm
You can see the fire in her eyes
Soon the day will come when we will rise
Till then you'll have to tow the line
After the storm

Nowhere to run...
After the storm...
Your day will come...

Misunderstood
In his mind, he's been to hell and back again
Left a trail of broken dreams
The smile you wear just hides your fear

On the edge of the night
You can't tell what's wrong from right
What went wrong with my mind
I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...

Life's unkind, so hard upon an only child
Took it all out on the world
Don't you know two wrongs don't make a right
Look into my eyes
See the pain of a lifetime

I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...
He wants to love somebody, nothing less
No man can take the pressure and loneliness
He's over the edge

I've been bad, mistreated, they don't understand
Never make a diamond from a grain of sand
Out on my own nobody, I'd change if I could
I'm not a bad man, I'm just misunderstood...

Kid gone astray
He waits every evening outside schoolyard gates
Dealing death whoever wants to pay
Hide your tears act much older than your years
Can't you see it's building up this way?
Just another kid gone astray

Hey mamma, did you know just where your baby's gone
Do you know she walks the streets at night
Emergency, but you can't believe just what you see
Read the news it happens every day
Just another kid gone astray

Don't bite the helping hand
That reaches out to understand
We all need a little time
To put the reason to the rhyme
Everbody has their day
But sooner or later we're all gonna stray
Gone astray
Just like a loaded gun, finger on the trigger
And having fun
Nobody'd gonna stand in my  way

Don't lose touch, slip through my hands
And out of reach
Come onn back, we'll work it out someway
The stakes are high, but you can't gamble with your life
Can't you see I need you here today
Just another kid gone astray

Fallen heroes
Heart of a lion fight to the end
Run like the wind
Champion of champions, best in the land, you always win

Don't fade away, don't fade away
Run with your dream right to the end
Your spirit flies on eagle wings
Never coming down

Fallen heroes no more worship
Where have all the good times gone
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the sun
Sitting all alone staring at the screen, thinking the past
Living in a land of faded memories
Realise that nothing lasts

Don't fade away, don't fade away
Reach out to you but you're not there
Your soul was never meant to be
Tied to the ground
Fallen heroes no more worship
Where have all the good times gone
Once I stood atop this mountain
Glory days set like the sun
Took away my fame and fortune
Left me with no place to go
Fallen hero, modern reject
They don't remember yesterday

The hero falls into disgrace
Out of time and out of place
Still part of me and part of you
Would love to be a hero too

Wishing your life away
Locked up, banged up, can't think for yourself
Twenty four hours in a teen foot cell
Rights of a prisoner, needs of a dog
Stare at a ceiling, make your peace with god

Night falls, my heart calls
Hours turn to days
Daybreak heartache, looking down in disbelief

I see myself it can't be wishing your life away,
Pray that that tomorrow comes
Cry your tears today, yesterday will never come, well, well...

Backed up, jacked up, it's worse than you think
Thirty long days for one little drink
No hand on the wheel, no foot on the floor
Just walls and a ceiling and a slamming of a cell door

Lights out, the nights shout
The days drag on and on
Day breaks my heart aches
No way out there's no espace
I think this time I'm going crazy
Whishing your life away
Pray that tomorrow comes
Cry your tears roday
Yesterady is dead and gone

Blood on the ocean
Blood on the ocean
There's a scar upon the world
And the population is falling to the point of no return
What will I tell my children
What will I tell my god

What happened to the world we knew
We could not read the writing on the wall

Blood upon the oecan
Washing red onto the shore
Wash my hands in desperation
But they stained for evermore
Your cry is growing fainter
I straind my ears to hear your song

What happened to the world we knew
We could not read the writing on the wall

There burns a flame, I'll hold it high
And shout your name
The people turn, a change has just begun
What happened to the world we knew
We could not read the writing on the wall
