"In Self-Defense"

   
(Schon, Cain, Perry)

The situation's got me rattled
I twist and turn late at night
This whole world's up in shambles
Who's the one to make it right

Missing persons lost in action (action)
Forgotten victims of the night (victims of the night)
They're making crime the main attraction (attraction)
They're making everyone uptight
They're all looking for a fight

In this confusion from day to day
Sometimes fear just makes no sense
In this crossfire I see one way
In self defense

You'll take your chances, Mr. Policeman (policeman)
You're like a cat with thirteen lives (cat with thirteen lives)
Your law and order is our lifeline (lifeline)
Through the danger, you'll survive
I do what I need to stay alive

In this confusion from day to day
Sometimes fear just makes no sense
In this crossfire I see one way
In self defense

In self (self) defense
In self (self) defense

In this confusion from day to day
Sometimes fear just makes no sense
In this crossfire I see one way
In self defense

"Better Together"

   
(Schon, Cain, Augeri)

Young and wild with a madness
I wouldn't listen
I thought I knew just exactly
The way life would be, you see
You came along and you showed me
Just what I was missing
You opened my eyes with your sweet love
Oh, then I could see

They said it wouldn't last
We proved them wrong
We learned to fly above the storm
Cause we've always known that we belong
And we're better together
If we got our backs against the wall
Somehow we survive through it all
Knowing I'll be there if you should fall
Oh, we're better together, all right, yeah yeah

Running alone, I was searching
While you were there waiting
Lessons in love I was learning
Were all right with me, you see
You changed my world and you gave me
Aw, the kiss you were saving
Ooh, we had each other to fight for
Ooh, when no one believed

They said it wouldn't last
We proved them wrong
We learned to fly above the storm
Cause we've always known that we belong
And we're better together
If we got our backs against the wall
Somehow we survive through it all
Knowing I'll be there if you should fall
Yeah, we're better together

Ooh it gets so lonely out there
Oh, playing my solitaire

Oh, Mustang
All right
Wait a minute
Young and wild with a madness
This time I listened, baby
You opened my eyes with your sweet love
Ooh, yeah, you set me free
Taken from OldieLyrics.com
They said it wouldn't last
We proved them wrong
We learned to fly above the storm
Cause we've always known where we belong
Yeah we're better together
Oh, if we got our backs against the wall
Somehow we survive through it all
Knowing I'll be there if you should fall
Oh we're better together
So much better, girl, we're better together
Better together, all right
Listen
Let's get together, let's get together, all right
Let's get together, well
Let's get together, let's get together right now
It's just, it's just better that way

"Gone Crazy"

   
(Cain, N. Schon, A. Schon, Tribble)

She fell out of bed and said, I'm leavin' this place
In a hot blooded, red-headed rage
She grabbed her things and slammed out that door
Jumped in the car, said, don't need you no more

She turned on the radio I said, hey, hey babe
Why do you have to treat me this way
She's wrapped up and wound herself way too tight
I think she's finally come loose this time

She's not the same, I can't explain
She's gone away, I don't mean maybe
She's not the same, my burnin' flame
She's gone
She's gone crazy

She's drivin' me crazy

Well I rode down the highway, so she pulled off
Way past the point of gettin' lost
She calls me up on my mobile phone
I said, hey, hey babe
You're in the twilight zone

Call it blind luck but she found a way
Back to the scene where it all took place
And when she walked through that door it's all I could say
Hey, hey babe it's me that's changed

She's not the same, I can't explain
She's gone away, I don't mean maybe
She's not the same, my burnin' flame
She's gone
She's gone crazy

Come on, get out of here
You're drivin' me crazy

I'm not the same, I can't explain
I'm goin' away, I don't mean maybe
I'm not the same
It's me that's changed
She's gone
She's gone crazy

She's gone away, no time to play
She's in the wings
No time to please
Come on, get out of here
She's drivin' me crazy

Go on, get out
Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye

"Beyond The Clouds"

   
(Schon, Augeri)

So long ago, has it been that long
Since we felt the sun
Where has it gone to
Has it hid from the world
Have we lost our way

I can remember it filling the sky
And it'd warm my face
The summers were endless
But they're over now
That was yesterday

I know we'll find love again
If we all pray a little
The heart will break free

Beyond the clouds
That's where my soul waits
She's waiting now
Beyond the clouds

Sorrow seems endless
Now there's only so much
That a man can bear
Hold on so tender
To a glimmer of faith
Gets me half way there
I know it will shine again
With some prayer and some patience
We'll find our way home

Beyond the clouds
That's where my soul waits
She's waiting now
Just beyond

Beyond anything you've ever known
Oh, so beautiful
Like a summer sky
Oh, you know it won't be long
If we find the strength I know
There beyond the clouds
We'll find the sun

Beyond the clouds
That's where my soul waits, oh yeah
She's waiting now
Beyond

Beyond the clouds
That's where my love waits
She's waiting now
Beyond the clouds

Yeah, that's it now, ooh
Oh, that's it now, baby, ooh
Beyond everything you've ever known
Oh, if I could find the strength, I know
We'll find the sun

"Never Too Late"

   
(Cain, Schon, Blades)

Her head is filled with doubt
Search her heart for faith that can't be found
He's running desperate now
All that he's become is just not working anymore
He's needing something more

Someone that he used to be
Part of her is a mystery
Spinning around in an empty place
Lie to themselves till they're blind with rage

It's never too late to feel the world come crashing down
It's never too late
It's darkest just before the dawn
They can rise above it all to see there's life beyond the pain
Never thought they'd fall this far
You know it's never too late to change

So much to understand
So much to feel and finally now you can
They'll see a different day all because they faced themselves
And now I hear them say they're gonna be okay

She found who she used to be and now there is no mystery
Open his eyes in a brand new place
A different soul in a different place

It's never too late to feel the world come crashing down
It's never too late
It's darkest just before the dawn
They can rise above it all to see there's life beyond the pain
Never thought they'd fall this far

Love is waiting, love is patient, love is kind
Love is falling into places in their minds
They love enough to know the difference
The dream they had today, don't throw it all away

It's never too late to feel the world come crashing down
It's never too late
It's darkest just before the dawn
They can rise above it all to see there's life beyond the pain
Never thought they'd fall this far
You know it's never too late to change

To rise above it all, never question, never fall
There is no mystery they are who they used to be
They're in a brand new place,
A different soul and a different face
The dreams they had today, don't throw it all away

"Pride Of The Family"

   
(Cain)

Young blood has got it shakin'
Growin' up, she's changin'
She's so tough to try tame her
These days she just wants to run wild

Short skirt, loves her make up
Plays the flirt, it's daddy's wake up
He's on the edge of teen age shake up
It's so bad he's losing sleep at night

Cause he was young once restless and free
An apple doesn't fall far from a tree

She's the pride of the family
Stands above the crowd, makes them all believe
She's the pride of the family
When it's her time to fly
She's got love on her side

Photographs of her childhood
The years have passed
Where did they run to
Love still lasts the tears they've been through
Time's a thief as precious moments fly by

Dreamy eyes like her mama
Her temper flies like her papa
Her brother's cool and he's never been a bother
But he's someone to turn to
When life ain't feelin' right

Hold on loosely but never let go
The rest she'll have to find out on her own

She's the pride of the family
Stands above the crowd, makes them all believe
She's the pride of the family
When it's her time to fly
She's got love on her side

Hold on loosely but never let go
The rest she'll have to find out on her own

She's the pride of the family
Stands above the crowd, makes them all believe
She's the pride of the family
When it's her time to fly
She's got love on her side
