Circling From Above

Image
Circling From Above Written by Tommy Shaw, Will Evankovich Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan Wasteland In the skies Open up your eyes It's no surprise It's a labyrinth in your mind Circling from above Created once with love Will they ever find a way? To the ground or lost in space Will they crash into the Sun Could they rain on everyone See the wasteland Of all our hopes and dreams

Build And Destroy

Official Video Official Lyric Video Build And Destroy Written by Tommy Shaw, Will Evankovich, Lawrence Gowan Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw I once had this dream to build a machine So fast it breaks through the sky Nothing would stop this incredible mass Something that's never been tried Miscalculations, great expectations No one believed we could conceive This goliath of dreams that came true Now here we are, back with the stars Improving all of our moves Lost in the sky, we turn to AI Tear it down and start all over Find the path to hope and joy Are we destined forever To build and destroy? Turn off all that feedback in your head Never mind the stories they said Today here I am, on the ruins I stand With all of you dreamers like me As you'd suspect, I often reflect Was that the way it should be? Newspaper said I was over my head Tear it down and start all over Find the path to hope and joy Are we destined forever To build and destroy? To build and destroy To build and destroy To b...

Michigan

Michigan Written by Tommy Shaw, Will Evankovich Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Listen on YouTube  Pencil and paper, worn out eraser Information must get through Chasing the tiger, a jungle of fire Burn out the bliss that we once knew All around the world, the wheels are turning Can we carry the weight of what we're learning? Fables and theories, the old and the weary Paving the way to a time gone by Noble intentions, a prophet's ascension Hail to the king of the media All around the world, the wheels are turning Can we carry the weight of what we're learning? The revolution's here, a shot was never fired No one shed a tear, 'cause nobody noticed Now the time has come to gather up your guns And set them all aside and let your foolish pride be done Born of illusion, world of confusion A child will lead us to the light All around the world, the wheels are turning Can we carry the weight of what we're learning? Do we dare take a look into the mirror? As the truth of our ...

The Last Guitar Hero [Dennis DeYoung]

The Last Guitar Hero Written by  Dennis DeYoung  and Jim Peterik Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung The music plays for free tonight From the corporate parasites Living off the blood of the creators The player stands there all alone Works his fingers to the bone Everywhere he looks nothing but traitors Whatever skill that you posses The new machine makes you second best Their working hard you know it's true To find an app to replace you You're the last guitar hero With the tools of your trade The last guitar hero Genuine hand made The last guitar hero With your big old Marshall stack Gone like a record store And never coming back Never coming back They say that change is here to stay Hell that's what they said yesterday But who can tell which way this wind is blowing Were travelling past the speed of light We're nothing more than bits and bytes Does anybody know where this things going Is there a place for you and me Beyond the lure of technology They're counting beans y...

I Don't Believe in Anything [Dennis DeYoung]

I Don't Believe in Anything Written by  Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung I don't believe in anything Anything that I hear 'Cause they got ways of fixing things Make notes disappear So if you're havin' trouble stayin' in pitch Keepin' your rhythm tight Double click on the little mouse Everything'll be alright And I don't believe in anything Anything that I read Up there on that Internet With all their anonymities Someone in the backroom with An axe to grind and a DSL Downloads how to make a bomb Sure to blow us all to hell Things have really turned out swell Who needs realities When you got gigabytes Download your fantasies 'Cause everything is out of sight It's all digital Faster than the speed of sound Space age carousel Spinning all round and round In for penny in for pound I don't believe in anything Anything that I see Especially all them movie stars Dancing by the big blue screen A hundred thousand warriors attack the kin...

It Don't Make Sense (You Can't Make Peace) (Willie Dixon cover)

It Don't Make Sense (You Can't Make Peace) Written by Willie Dixon Lead Vocals by James Young Listen on YouTube You have made great planes to span the skies You gave sight to the blind with other men's eyes You even made submarines stay submerged for weeks But it don't make sense you can't make peace You take one man's heart and make another man live You even go to the moon and come back thrilled Why you can crush any country in a matter of weeks But it don't make sense you can't make peace You can make a transfusion that can save a life Why you can change the darkness into broad daylight You make the deaf man hear and the dumb man speak But it don't make sense you can't make peace

Mr. Roboto

Mr. Roboto Written by Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, Mata ah-oo hima de Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, Himitsu wo shiri tai You're wondering who I am-machine or mannequin With parts made in Japan, I am the modren man I've got a secret I've been hiding under my skin My heart is human, my blood is boiling, my brain I.B.M. So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide To keep me alive-just keep me alive Somewhere to hide to keep me alive I'm not a robot without emotions-I'm not what you see I've come to help you with your problems, so we can be free I'm not a hero, I'm not a saviour, forget what you know I'm just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control Beyond my control-we all need control I need control-we all need control I am the modren man, who hides behind a mask So no one else can see my true identity Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...
