You'll get the best of me Wake me up in the moonlight hours So sick of the A.M. blues Take the last train down to where The neon lights shine on me and you My heart's talkin' but that don't mean that I'm listenin' I grit my teeth and I bite my tongue because I'm, I'm slippin' Are you afraid of the light? Does it shine on your dark side? My blood is boilin' for a midnight meltdown I got a history of takin' my time Nobody nobody gonna stand in my way Gotta get it gotta have it just as fast as I can Never talkin' but that don't mean that I'm listenin' I eat my words and I bite my tongue because I'm, I'm slippin' Are you afraid of the light? Does it shine on your dark side? Are you afraid of the light? Does it shine on your dark side? *solo* Are you afraid of the light? Does it shine on your dark side? Are you afraid of the light? Does it shine on your dark side? Woah Woah Yeah

Suck It Up 03:54
When you look inside yourself do you see the light Cuz when they look inside you all they see is dollar signs Take another holiday let it take you where it will You only get one life to live so let's live inside the thrill There's something in the air tonight I feel a hunger for a fire onstage Come on let me hear you scream out loud And take your anger out on me I'll be your energy freak This ain't the place for tears, no no no Forget the world for an evening And get your wild side moving Suck it up! You know there's no use crying When they try to bring you down You gotta Suck it up! You just gotta keep on fighting Gotta show them what your made of Did you get your motor running just to run out of gas Did you give up your wildest dreams just for petty cash Well I know what you need I ain't no stranger to the grind You gotta get pissed off, give 'em hell Give 'em a piece of your mind There's something in the air tonight I feel a hunger for a fire onstage Come on let me hear you scream out loud And take your anger out on me I'll be your energy freak This ain't the place for tears, no no no Forget the world for an evening And get your wild side moving Suck it up! You know there's no use crying When they try to bring you down You gotta Suck it up! You just gotta keep on fighting Gotta show them what your made of *solo* Suck it up! You know there's no use crying When they try to bring you down You gotta Suck it up! You just gotta keep on fighting Gotta show them what your made of, yeah

Well I was hangin' out in "Black Shark", Tokyo And I was drinkin' by the backstage door She was beatin' on the drums like an animal Heavy Metal Princess can ya gimmie some more Shout out! You had me right from the start Right now! A double-kick to my heart I'm in love and it feels so strange Ooh, you got me wonderin' Have I fallen asleep and it's just a dream Ooh, don't wake me up child Every time that I see your face Ooh, you got me shiverin' In the middle of summer heat Cuz you're the one that I want! Well I was tearin' up the stage with a microphone Her eyes were watchin' from somewhere in the crowd She missed the last train home from the after-party We "Rocked in Current" till the sun came around Shout out! You had me right from the start Right now! A double-kick to my heart I'm in love and it feels so strange Ooh, you got me wonderin' Have I fallen asleep and it's just a dream Ooh, don't wake me up child Every time that I see your face Ooh, you got me shiverin' In the middle of summer heat Cuz you're the one that I want! *solo* I'm in love and it feels so strange Ooh, you got me wonderin' Have I fallen asleep and it's just a dream Ooh, don't wake me up child Every time that I see your pretty face Ooh, you got me shiverin' In the middle of summer heat Cuz you're the one that I want!

Morning sun warms my skin so softly Reminds me of who we are and where we are Everyday a sort of transient beauty We inhale but don't breathe the same air right now Not just yet, my darling Be still and wait, I'm coming home Fall into fate our own way Just live and don't be lonely Seeking captivation in a work of art We dive deep to dangerous depths of dark For all we know we could be miles apart I wanna know where they put the other half of my heart Evening moon under which I'm patiently waiting Greys and blues paint pictures of my feelings Just a touch of sacred beauty to our story We'll reflect like ancient tales of Genji Not just yet, my darling Be still and wait, I'm coming home Fall into fate our own way Just live and don't be lonely Seeking captivation in a work of art We dive deep to dangerous depths of dark For all we know we could be miles apart I wanna know where they put the other half of my heart Woah, woah Seeking captivation in a work of art We dive deep to dangerous depths of dark For all we know we could be miles apart I wanna know where they put the other half of my heart

I watched the clock as it ticked on by I looked for patience that I just couldn't find I laid awake in my anticipation Tried to get myself some relaxation But how's a guy supposed to settle down? When he's all turned around and upside down I'll take adventure any way I can I bought a one way ticket to Japan Woah I know what I'm in for Hey! Heavy Metal in Tokyo! Woah And that's what I came for Hey! Heavy Metal in Tokyo! I got lost on the busy streets I got to eat myself some tasty treats I had some sushi how it's meant to me made I was nervous but I wasn't afraid I watched Cherry Blossoms fall from the sky I was the craziest Gaijin Guy I fell in love and had a whole lotta fun Can't wait to go back to the Rising Sun Woah I know what I'm in for Hey! Heavy Metal in Tokyo! Woah And that's what I came for Hey! Heavy Metal in Tokyo! Woah Hey! Heavy Metal in Tokyo!

I lay awake in the middle of the night again That burning passion runnin' through my head I take some action just to make me forget (It's like my medicine) And now that it's over don't know where to begin It's too late to escape from the trouble I'm in And I'd never do it over again Visiting hours are over and the doctor is in I need a... Crash Operation You gotta tear out my heart Transplanted and ready to roll Gimmie a brand new start I'll be here 'til the mornin' in recovery But that's alright cuz I'm a brand new man I promised, "Doctor, I won't let it get broke no more!" But that's when the nurse came in and took my hand It's too late to escape from the trouble I'm in And I'd do it all over again Visiting hours are over and the doctor is in I need a... Crash operation You gotta tear out my heart Get me back in the action Gimmie a brand new start *solo* Crash operation You gotta tear out my heart Transplanted and ready to roll Gimmie a brand new start Crash operation You gotta tear out my heart Get me back in the action Gimmie a brand new start

Take me out of this reality Shake me up and feed me all my dreams Give me everything I wanna see Punch me in the heart and make me bleed I keep on spinnin' around And I keep on changin; my mind I feel like a broke down wreck in the trash And the world has left me behind Ain't no fairytale Ain't no song and dance You know life is real And you only get one chance Wake me up to smell the rotten tea I've been downtown too long I know this street It don't end too nice and don't go well Gotta get my ass in gear and give them hell But I keep on spinnin' around And I keep on changin; my mind I feel like a broke down wreck in the trash And the world has left me behind Ain't no fairytale, no Ain't no song and dance You know life is real And you only get one chance I'm gonna take my chances and lock them away In a place where they'll never be found And maybe someone's gonna find 'em when I'm dead and gone And make a fine man out of himself *solo* I keep on spinnin' around And I keep on changin; my mind I feel like a broke down wreck in the trash And the world has left me behind Ain't no fairytale, no Ain't no song and dance You know life is real And you only get one chance It ain't no fairytale Ain't no song and dance Well you know it's real woah

When I walk that street In the middle of the night I wonder if you're watching me And what would you say If you were here right now Walking beside me Ah, too many cold and lonely nights Passin' the time Longing for days when we would walk together Oh, tasting the falling rain In the clouds I see your face But the wind blows it all away As the thunder calls your name Crashing through the sky With a blinding light Electric arms reaching out for me Pacing to and fro From the left and to the right You might be inside the energy When I close my eyes And the world goes black I can feel the darkness surrounding me Listen for your voice Try to see your face Holding onto the memory Ah, every breath I breath is 'cuz of you Takin' my time Tryin' to walk in footsteps laid before me Oh, tasting the falling rain In the clouds I see your face But the wind blows it all away As the thunder calls your name *solo* Oh, tasting the falling rain In the clouds I see your face But the wind blows it all away As the thunder calls your name Tasting the falling rain As the thunder calls your name

TRANSLATED LYRICS: I wanna be your washcloth Want you to use me when you wash your body If I can be your washcloth You'll have shiny skin by the power of vegetables Let's shower together Shave your armpits before my eyes I live on for your skin Until my last day, me and you! My owner, I love you But someday I will shrivel up If that is my fate I'll beat the crap outta your dirtiness If someday I get thrown in the wet-garbage That is the tragedy of the sponge-cucumber washcloth Let's shower together Pluck your eyebrows in front of me I live on for your skin Until my last day, me and you! My owner, I love you But someday I will shrivel up *solo* I live on for your skin Until my last day, me and you! My owner, I love you But someday I will shrivel up
