1.Steel Town
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to turn her around
Blow out the flame and dying name
This dirty town won't seem the same
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town and turn around
I never thought I'd see the day
What a crying shame tell me who's to blame
Mere words of comfort have no meaning
For a dying town that won't lie down
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to turn her around
Blow out the flame and dying name
This dirty town won't seem the same
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town and turn around
There comes a time when you must question
Were you wrong or right? Can you sleep at night?
Too many shattered dreams to answer
Without reason or rhyme where do you draw the line?
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to turn her around
Blow out the flame and dying name
This dirty town won't seem the same
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
It couldn't last forever sign of the times
No pleasure where can we go together?
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to turn her around
Blow out the flame and dying name
This dirty town won't seem the same
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
Blow in the wind to turn her around
Blow in the wind to old Steel Town
And turn around
You got to blow in the wind
You got to blow in the wind
You got to blow in the wind

2.Halfway To Heaven
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
When you think you've reached the end of the line
Walls that once blocked your way come tumblin' down
And you'll find the answers were there all the time
When we turn out the lights and we sit in the dark
Is the mountain too high to climb? Halfway to Heaven
When you're flat on your back you can still see the stars
Guidin' you through the night, halfway to paradise
Tin gods plan, life's doors slam to hold you back
When you're born on the wrong side of the track
Don't take no, take hold, don't leave it to chance
When we turn out the lights and we sit in the dark
Is the mountain too high to climb? Halfway to Heaven
When you're flat on your back you can still see the stars
Guidin' you through the night, halfway to paradise
When we turn out the lights and we sit in the dark
Is the mountain too high to climb? Halfway to Heaven
When you're flat on your back you can still see the stars
Guidin' you through the night, halfway to paradise
You let the world roll by
You're trying to hang yourself without a rope
Mister Dream, take control
I am the means to reach your goal
When we turn out the lights and we sit in the dark
Is the mountain too high to climb? Halfway to Heaven
When you're flat on your back you can still see the stars
Guidin' you through the night, halfway to paradise
Halfway, halfway, halfway
3.Ripped Inside
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
You've got no reasons for the things you said
But you can't keep your feelin's to yourself
And I can't find an answer to this emptiness
No, I can't find an answer and I wish that I was dead
I never dreamt I'd hear your echo pounding in my head
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside
I'll say I'm feeling fine but what's the use
When nothing could be further from the truth
Oh, where will I find comfort, strength to live again?
If there's a God above then show me how the story ends
If there's a God above then how could he desert a friend?
Because I feel so tired and ripped inside
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside
You'll ache for me when your hands are tied
You'll wish you lived in another time
And if you're thinking the pain subsides
There's no place to hide when you're ripped inside
There's no meaning in the things you did
And you might still go on denying it
If you could live that hour again, would you resist?
Or was I just another victim innocently picked?
Was I carefully selected or the next one on your list?
To be cut down to size and ripped inside
I've got nowhere to hide, I'm ripped inside
I've got nowhere to hide, I'm ripped inside
And though the tears have dried, I'm ripped inside
I've got nowhere to hide
4.Hero
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
There's nothing you can do to take the pain away
You may find broken dreams are the price of the games we play
Closing the door, you hope the world will disappear
Then you open your eyes and you find everyone's still here
Don't you know? Weren't you told?
First they build you up just to knock you down
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Were you flying high just before the fall?
Did they make you king just to take it all?
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Players only play till the curtain falls
Hero, they couldn't let you go, there's no way out in time
They'd only let you grow to cut you down to size
No room for tears when you've gone down in history
No acclaim when your finest hour is just a memory
Don't you know? Weren't you told?
First they build you up just to knock you down
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Were you flying high just before the fall?
Did they make you king just to take it all?
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Players only play till the curtain falls
Hero, we can dream our dreams but who knows
If they'll fade away like heroes
First they build you up just to knock you down
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Were you flying high just before the fall?
Did they make you a king just to take it all?
Steal the crown of the hero from yesterday
Players only play till the curtain falls
We all dream the dreams of heroes
We all dream the dreams of heroes
Hero
Hero
Hero

5.Somebody's Daughter
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
Ooh, somebody's daughter
Give me room to breathe
There are times when I feel
I could drown without water
Give me time to see
Just one dream that is mine
I feel the wind and the water
I see the sun and the rain
Forgive the sins of your daughter
And she'll pray for you
I'm breaking the frame, each day's the same
You should be somebody's daughter
Day after day of feeling this way
I am somebody's daughter
Please, say I can leave
Try to ease this pain
That I feel may be killing me
Free me from a life
That is cold, that is mine
I am the dutiful lover
I am the perfect mother
Forgive the sins of others
But please, don't pray for me
I'm breaking the frame, each day's the same
You should be somebody's daughter
Day after day of feeling this way
You should be somebody's daughter
If you opened your eyes and you tried
You could read between the lines
I'm wasting away with nothing to say
I am somebody's daughter
Somebody's daughter
Somebody's daughter
I'm breaking the frame, each day's the same
You should be somebody's daughter
Day after day of feeling this way
You should be somebody's daughter
If you opened your eyes and you tried
You could read between the lines
I'm wasting away with nothing to say
I am somebody's daughter
I feel the wind and the water
I see the sun and the rain
Forgive the sins of your daughter
And she'll pray for you
I'm breaking the frame
You should be somebody's daughter
I'm wasting away
I am somebody's daughter
6.In Your Care
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
The light is fading from my room
As nighttime comes around too soon
I'm so afraid
Swollen eyes portray my pain
As tears fall like the summer rain
I'm so alone
Son of a bitch you broke my heart
I need a little loving to take away the pain
How could you let me down
When I'm in your care?
I pull the covers to myself
Drink and smoke upon his breath
I close my eyes
Again I pray to God above
What have I done to lose his love?
Am I to blame?
Son of a bitch you broke my heart
I need a little loving to take away the pain
How could you let me down
When I'm in your care?
When I am dreaming
I can call out, no one hears
Father I'm falling
From your heart in tears
Son of a bitch you broke my heart
I need a little loving to take away the pain
How could you let me down
When I'm in your care?
Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
To show he cares
But you must keep our secret safe
Is this love or is this hate?
I feel so scared
Son of a bitch you broke my heart
I need a little loving to take away the pain
How could you let me down?
When I'm in your care
7.The Higher You Climb
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
The higher you climb, the further you fall
And the harder you try, well, the louder they cry
I don't know why but it's written in my hand
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
I read the news today, a land was blown away
I understand it's out of my hands
But I would lay down my life for you if you'd guarantee
That you and all your kind would not abuse it
The higher you climb, the further you fall
And the harder you try, well, the louder they cry
I don't know why but it's written in my hand
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
I'm scared to watch TV because of what it does to me
It leaves me feelin' helpless
But I would sacrifice the things I hold so dear in life
If you would tell me it would not be useless
The higher you climb, the further you fall
And the harder you try, well, the louder they cry
I don't know why but it's written in my hand
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
And when I sleep at nights, another nation rise
To carry on the fight for freedom
They dedicate their lives, a supreme sacrifice
For simple human rights and freedom
Higher you climb, the further you fall
And the harder you try, well, the louder they cry
I don't know why but it's written in my hand
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
Ooh, yeah
The higher you climb, the further you fall
Ooh, yeah
Higher you climb, the further you fall
And the harder you try, well, the louder they cry
I don't know why but it's written in my hand
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
The wiser you are, the harder you'll find it
To follow a path that won't lead to decline
I'll make my stand because it's written in the stars
And I can see what is right if I stay on the right track
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
The further you fall, the further you fall
Further, further, further, further, further, further you fall
Ooh, further, further, further, further, further, further,
further
Further, further, further
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
8.When It Comes Down To It
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
You've done nothing wrong
But it seems so long
Since we've shared some time
And I say I don't mind
But oh when it comes down to it
Do you really wanna?
But oh when it comes down to it
I suppose it's true
That maybe I'm a fool
To scare myself this way
Take my fears away
But oh when it comes down to it
Do you really wanna?
But oh when it comes down to it
Like ships in the night
We leave no signs
The course we sail
Are memories
That lead us to who knows where
Have I lost my mind
Listening to these lies?
Heard from no one else
Save me from myself
But oh when it comes down to it
Do you really wanna?
But oh when it comes down to it
But oh when it comes down to it
Do you really wanna?
But oh when it comes down to it
Like ships in the nights
We leave no sign
The course we sail
Are memories
And I wonder if you really care
And oh when it comes down to it
Do you really wanna?
But oh when it comes down to it
When it really comes down to it
When it really comes down to it
When it really comes down to it
...
9.Arienne
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall
You turn in the world, the world turns grey
All alone on your own, you're set in your ways
You breathe in a smile then wipe it away
Broken heart, torn apart and let down again
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall, Arienne
The view from the hill is not what it seems
From below, don't you know it's all in your dreams?
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall, Arienne
Oh, it's true, oh, it's true
I'll catch you when you fall
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall
Arienne, I realize something's not in your favour
Arienne, I'll catch you when you fall
You fall, you fall, you fall, you fall
You fall, you fall, you fall, you fall, you fall
10.Lords Of The New Church
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
Here's a man whose voice speaks for everyone
And his actions touch the lives of us all
He rose with energy and style, touch my hand, kiss my child
Sway us all with your smile, he readily accepts acclaim
But soon forgets that he came from the back streets like them
We pray to the east, we pray to the west
And we see the gods of the new church
As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?
Save us from the lords of the new church, don't say no
Here's a man some believe is a visionary
Here's a man who is driven by greed
He made a fortune overnight in a deal that he knew
Was too good to be true, now as he bends the rules of play
Becomes obsessed with the game, has to go all the way
We pray to the east, we pray to the west
And we see the gods of the new church
As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?
Save us from the lords of the new church, don't say no, don't
say no
They feast and they fly while we pay the real price
But what price do we place on life?
We pray to the east, we pray to the west
And we see the gods of the new church
As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?
Save us from the lords of the new church
We pray to the east, we pray to the west
And we see the gods of the new church
As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?
Save us from the lords of the new church
God of the new church
Save us from the lords of the new church
And I hope and I pray
God of the new church
And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep
Save us from the lords of the new church
And I hope and I pray
God of the new church
And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep
Save us from the lords of the new church
And I hope and I pray
God of the new church
And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep
Save us from the lords of the new church
God of the new church
Save us from the lords of the new church
God of the new church
11.Sleeping Satellite
Lyricist:Tasmin Archer, John Beck, John Hughes
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died with the Eagle's flight
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why are the seas still dry?
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Did we fly to the moon too soon?
Did we squander the chance? In the rush of the race
The reason we chase is lost in romance
And still we try to justify the waste
For a taste of man's greatest adventure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died with the Eagle's flight
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why are the seas still dry?
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
Have we got what it takes to advance?
Did we peak too soon? If the world is so green
Then why does it scream under a blue moon?
We wonder why the earth's sacrificed
For the price of its greatest treasure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died with the Eagle's flight
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why are the seas still dry?
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
And when we shoot for the stars
What a giant step have we got what it takes
To carry the weight of this concept?
Or pass it by like a shot in the dark
Miss the mark with a sense of adventure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died with the Eagle's flight
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why are the seas still dry?
Don't blame this sleeping satellite
