"Headstrong"

Arrogance runs rampant through our veins.  This is what I see:
We hold our knowledge over everybody's head.
Our intentions lead us on that path to hell.
How is it we fell?

(Chorus)
Headstrong
You make it hard to gain respect.
Headstrong
I'm getting tired of your neglect.
Headstrong
There is more to this life than just yourself!
Headstrong

The promises we make to others, how much do they mean?
People take us serious; are we living in a dream?
Where is your conscience, where does it end?
Does our word mean nothing now?

(Chorus)

Is it so hard, why is it so hard, to just do what we say?
How many others do you plan to blow-off today?!
How can we allow this deception to go on and think it's o.k?

"Road War"

There's an eight-lane highway to death and destruction.
Choose your position and let 'er rip.
Look out, move out, here comes the maniac.
He's playin' for real- that Road War game!

Streamlinin' thru the distant reaches.
Turbo chargin' down the mem'ry makin' lane.
If you go too far,-- it's all over.
Red linin' your dreams to the very edge.

Jamin' into third to pass the obstruction.
Clutchin' at the brakes for the unexpected.
Slide out, kick it out, hey there's that maniac.
He's out for blood in that Road War game!

"Dream Reacher"

Locked up tight, but you hold the key.
Why don't you use it to set yourself free?
The door is open while you stare at the wall.
Why are you so afraid to have it all?

(Chorus)
Some use pills, some use drink,
You destroy yourself by the way that you think!
Reach for the stars, climb towards the moon.
Try to reach them, you'll be surprised what you can do.

You can't be perfect, that's a lost cause.
Nowhere I find it's one of the laws.
Struggle hard and push thru everyday life.
Some failing can help to reach the final goal!

(Chorus)

Kick incentive in, throw out the fear.
Look upon the dream, not for the means.
Throw off convention, try another way.
Start at the beginning make a new day!

"Against the Grain"

Do you wear what everyone does?
Will you buy what the masses do?
Should you play what the pros use?
Does this make it good?

(Chorus)
Against the grain.
Against the grain.
Against the grain.

Can you create while you copy everyone?
Why don't you break out; we don't need another clone.
Being different, does the pressure seem too much?
Lost in a crowd, where's your individuality?

(Chorus)

Will you swim upstream while they all pass you by?
Could you say no if they say give it a try?
What can you become when you're in somebody's shoes?
Be yourself; it's worth payin' some dues.

"Deceptor"

She will twist your life in pieces.
Devour your family too.
Engage her evil plan
And set out to see your doom.
You're entangled in the web
As she messes with your head.
When you lie down to bed
Will you wake up dead?

(Chorus)
Deceptor: Where do you come from?
How can I be so fooled?
You're a nightmare come true.

Every corner that you turn
She's there helping you to burn
How can we keep control
Of our very soul?
It takes everything that I have
To keep from going mad
In the end we'll know who's bad
And she'll be had!!!

"Gatewave to Metal"


"Hypocritical"

You tell me what to do,
You want to run my life.
And when I listen,
It leads me into strife.
You will be friend 
If I'm doing it your way.
You want me to believe 
That's how the game is played.
But if I have a plan in mind
You turn the other way.

(Chorus)
Hypocritical
Hypocritical
Hypocritical

I see through your mask
And you're no friend of mine.
Cause when I need 
You leave me hangin' on the line.
I need to know
If you've been puttin' me on.
How long can this go on?

"Killer Venom"

Who has woe?  Who has sorrow?  Who has strife?
Complaints?  Needless bruises?  Bloodshot eyes?
When you gaze in the cup and it sparkles,
When it goes down smoothly, beware!

(Chorus 1)
Your eyes will see strange sights.
Your mind will imagine confusing things.
"They hit me," you will say, "but I don't feel it."
"They beat me, but I'm not hurt."

(Chorus 2)	
When will I come to?
When will I wake up?
So I can find me another drink!
In the end, it bites you like a snake
And it's poison like a viper!

(spoken) It's deadly poison.

"Suckcess"

(Soft)
Hangin' on by my fingertips today.
Got to thinkin' I had, I had somethin' to say.
You out there tryin' to make your mark....
Real truth is you're lost in the dark.

Makin' your mark don't matter; that fades away.
It's how you stand, not what they say.
Fame is on the outside; what's within...
A willing heart of gold or a scrap of tin?

(Soft)
Clingin' to the edge, clawin' for the top.
Can't look down, can't afford to stop.
You out there tryin' to make your mark....
Real truth is you're lost in the dark.

What you gain in this world will come to dust.
Trophies and treasures all turn to rust.
Livin' ain't easy? Well dyin' ain't hard.
Forget the jackpot! It's how you play the cards.
