4.Deathwish


1.STAND STRONG, STAND PROUD

They´ll tell you now you´re old enough
You should settle down
They´ll take away your dignity
So you´ll always face the ground

Chorus:
Stand strong stand proud Chant your feelings loud
Stand strong stand proud Don´t accept the crowd
Stand strong stand proud We´ll rise and they shall fall
Stand strong stand proud One day we´ll show them all

They´ll offer an alternative
Promises that never end
But is it what you really want?
Their smiles are all pretence

They think they´ll get you on the cheap
But who are they to tell?
It´s time for you to up your price
You´ve only got yourself

They´ll say that all you lived for
Has deserted you and died
Within you it will always live 
Your source of strength and pride


2.OUT OF REACH

Humiliate and torture
Till i wish i were dead
You say i´m the idiot
Your ignorance is bliss

Chorus:
Apathy is all you preach
The strings of the puppet are out of reach
Ignore it, it might go away
Your at the bottom, that´s where you´ll stay
You just sit around and get stoned
There´s no action, you only moan
Happily waving your white flag
Giving your leaders the last laugh

Left me at the bottom
You thought i´d work for them
Thought i was a joke
I got them in the end

Clawing from the outside
I couldn´t leave my mark
Your inside hurts much more
The blood´s under my nails

With ego-tripping acid punks
I giggled in a corner
A funeral in ´78
I was the only mourner


3.ROCK`N´ROLL MASSACRE

A little sister of the holding company
Her future cut short, accidental O.D.

Chorus:
Rock`n´roll massacre
Rock`n´roll massacre

Jumping jack flash found a watery grave
A spotlight on you, that´s how you behave

In a purple haze turn to another pill
Choke on your own vomit, die in notting hill

Bible-pusher´s son was alright then
For a backstreet Crawler the flight didn´t end

There´s no point in saying it´s over
Or that we learnt our lesson well
Whose grave next to sanctify?
Remember the CHELSEA HOTEL 


4.DEATHWISH

You´re drowning in your hopelessness
Don´t know if you´re live or dead
You life has become such a mess
Deathwish is all that´s in your head
A feeling of hopeless despair
Enfolds you for no reason
Yor body imprisons your soul
Death will lead you to freedom

Your habits force you to leave home
You´re getting drunk and taking drugs
And life is harder on your own
Staying out late and sleeping rough

Staring into space in a daze
Against the wall, you try to stand
Choking lungs and eyes so glazed
Ashen face an trembling hands

The paranioa makes you blind
Tearfull eyes full of remorse
The clouds descent around your mind
You´ve got your wish, a walking corpse
