LOST IN THE LIMELIGHT

From the garage to the stage we took every chance
Now the stage is ours through this thunders’ dance
To the world we gave our hearts but lost our peace each time
Every mile and every show we’re leaving bits behind

Chasing dreams with all we had
Sweating nights in our small town
Bright lights, they draw us in
But we lost what we found

Now we're caught in the limelight
World's calling our name
Stars in our eyes, but doubts in our hearts
Everyone's cheering, but we're torn apart

Just a band with big dreams lost in the scene
City after city, kings and queens of the night

But somewhere deep inside, that small town fire still burns
We ride the waves of fame, yet our hearts, they yearn

We climbed this mountain high, but the view's bittersweet
Lost ourselves along the way, faces we can't meet
Eyes on the sunset, but the dawn's so far away
We traded love and honesty for the price we pay

Now we're caught in the limelight
World's calling our name
Stars in our eyes, but doubts in our hearts
Everyone's cheering, but we're torn apart

Just a band with big dreams lost in the scene
City after city, kings and queens

Now we're caught in the limelight
World's calling our name


CLOCKWORK MINDS

Concrete hearts beating in time
Bound by the daily grind
Lost in routines, faces blur
Voices faint, but still they stir
I've become another part
Of a world that's lost its heart

Factory lights, cold and stark
Life's become a question mark
Inside this metal cage
I rage against the page
We're gears and oil, turning rust
Years and toil, dreams to dust

I wake up just the same
Nothing changes
Life's a rusty chain

We're just clockwork minds in stride
Marching on through time
Lost the spark inside

Worn-out boots hit the ground
Daybreak comes without a sound
Chains of life, heavy load
Walking down that endless road

Relentless thrum of steel and stone
In this urban hive, we're all alone
Forgotten dreams, in shadows laced
Every sunrise feels displaced
Caught in this machine, no release
Searching for a taste of peace

Chasing shadows, dreams confined
Hollow echoes in my mind

Can we break these chains, redefine?
Find the fire that once was mine
Reach beyond the cold, hard lines
To a world that feels alive


LIKE A FORTRESS

This love's our shield and armour, it leads us safely home
We've seen the highest mountains and the valleys down below
But together we keep climbing, through the rain and the snow
You light my darkest hours, like a beacon in the night
In this world of chaos, you're my guiding light

Sitting by the fireside, our hands in warm embrace
There's a world out there to conquer, but here we find our place
Gonna face it all together, with you I can't go wrong
In this life, our love's the anchor, it's where we both belong

When the night falls heavy, and shadows start to creep
With love we'll keep on fighting, it's a promise we will keep
And when the storm is raging, and the waves are crashing high
We'll ride out every tempest, united you and I
Your strength is my foundation, and my heart beats in your hand
Together we're unbroken, like a fortress we will stand

We've journeyed through the fire, and walked through winds of change
Faced every single challenge, in sunshine and in rain
Your heart, it is my compass, guiding every move I make
With you, my love, beside me, there's no risk I wouldn't take

When the night falls heavy, and shadows start to creep
With love we'll keep on fighting, it's a promise we will keep
And when the storm is raging, and the waves are crashing high
We'll ride out every tempest, united you and I
Your strength is my foundation, and my heart beats in your hand
Together we're unbroken, like a fortress we will stand


SWINGING ON ROPES

A shot rang out in the cold midnight air
Joe held his brother, full of despair
In a small town, under the same old moon
One life ended, and the other was doomed

From swinging on ropes to worlds divide
One catching dreams, the other in crime

Two brothers born in a one-road town
Heard the same old stories, walked the same ground
One took the badge, the other took the dark
Different paths, same beating heart

From swinging on ropes to world's divide
One catching dreams, the other in crime

Years went by, each on his own road
One in a cruiser, one heavy with load
Their paths would cross in a heist gone wrong
Under the streetlights, their fate was drawn

A town too small to hide from the past
The badge and the bandit, the die was cast
An echo cries through the night so still
The brothers’ fate like a bitter pill
Joe's trembling hands as he held the gun
What’s done is done, can’t outrun the sun

The red and blue lights, they painted the scene
Brother's blood mixed with shattered dreams


KILLER ON THE RUN

He steps into the darkness, cloak and dagger's friend
No room for hesitation, it's starting to ascend

His eyes are cold reflections of the lives he's taken down Behind each hit, a story, another silent town
He whispers to the night, sins pile up like dust
But somewhere deep within him, it's heaven that he trusts

He pulls into a town, shadowed past, disguise
A phone call brings the name, it's now or never
He moves with skill and grace, no question why
Each hit runs deeper, there's no way to sever

He's a killer on the run, heart of stone and steel
Every name another scar, no heaven in his deal
He rolls on through the night, a drifter on the wind
No mercy in his eyes, a countdown will begin

Destined for the shadows, his sin's last serenade
Each bullet a reminder of the life he could've made
Relentless in his pursuit, he wanders, never stays
Haunted by the whispers of the ghosts he couldn't save

He battles with his conscience, where the devil plays his tune
Remembers faces etched in time, like shadows of a moon
With every name he crosses, a part of him decays
But redemption's not his calling, in darkness he will stay

He's a killer on the run, heart of stone and steel
Every name another scar, no heaven in his deal
He drifts on through the twilight, a phantom in the smoke
His hands are stained with answers, but forgiveness is a joke

In every darkened window, a life that he surveys
He knows each call's another thread that frays
He silences the whispers, the cries that go unheard
Collecting sins like secrets, forever undeterred


WITH EVERY HEARTBEAT

In the quiet suburbs, we make our mark
Roaring through the night, hearts begin to stir
With the pedal to the metal, we chase the night
Risking all we've got under pale moonlight

Small town whispers, we'll outrun their chains
Living for the speed, feeling no pain
We got our pride, living faster than the law
In the dead of night, we heed the asphalt’s call

Through the night, engines roaring in the dark
Steel and fire, where we're racing for a spark
In these streets where shadows hold their sway
Men and machines, we’ll fight another day

Oh, dirty pavement, it’s where we put our dreams
Horsepower screaming, the engines' hungry gleam
Daring fate, with every turn we make
Never looking back, no matter what's at stake
Broken dreams left scattered in our wake
We chase the thrill, we chase the night, never fake

Neon lights reflect in our defiant eyes
Adrenaline and iron, beneath those starry skies
Got no limits, with our hands on the wheel
In the silence, we make our own deal

With every heartbeat, with every twist and turn
A fire deep inside, an unrelenting burn
Headlights cutting through the mysteries of night
We were born to race, under the pale moonlight


THE VOID

Leaving loved ones, she's gotta go
Through the stars, into the unknown
But here on Earth, a choice remains
A life begins, while another's pain

In the void of space, she seeks the truth
But in her heart, there's so much to lose

She looks up at the endless sky
A mission waits, she can't deny
To find life on a distant star
But here on Earth, she's come so far

What is life and what is death?
What is it to take a breath?

In the shadows of a fading sun
She wonders if she'll come undone
As rockets fire, she starts to cry
A part of her will say goodbye

On this journey, she'll face the stars
But it's the scars on Earth that weigh so hard
With trembling hands, she boards the flight
A silent tear, fading in the night

In the void, she'll drift alone
But down below, her heart's still home
A sacrifice, to find our place
Among the stars, in endless space


STEEL AND GLASS

Steel and glass rising tall
Not long before they'd start to fall
Sirens echoed through the broken streets
With heavy hearts but steady feet

Facing flames, they marched on in
Bound by duty, soul, and skin
Smoke and steel, they intertwined
Yet heroes rose in courage defined

Eyes of fire, hands of steel
They took the oath, they made it real
Despite the screams, the unheard calls
They stood their ground as the towers fell

Standing tall amongst the shadows
Heroes faced the fateful call
In the flames and through the sorrows
They kept reaching through the fall

With fear in every heartbeat
They climbed those endless stairs

Through the dust and in the rubble
They heard the call, they faced the trouble

With helmets on and hearts of gold
Stories of bravery, yet untold
Through the choking ash and shattered glass
They held the line, they wouldn't let it pass

In their veins, the courage flowed
With every step, their spirits showed
And as the skies turned darkest grey
Their hearts were rocks that wouldn't sway

Standing tall amongst the shadows
Heroes faced the fateful call

In the flames and through the sorrows
They kept reaching through the fall
Yet through it all, their spirits soared


I CAN SURVIVE

Midnight comes, and I hit the street
Rain-soaked boots, with a weary beat
Ghosts of dreams in my rearview
Chasing shadows, nothing's true

Street corner dames, with empty eyes
Selling comfort, but it’s all lies
Streetlights flicker, shadows cast
Haunted by a dream from the past

Neon signs, flashing lies
For a moment, hide my cries
Prostitutes can't mend this soul
Underneath, I'm losing control

Alone at night, streets so dark
Pouring rain on this lonesome heart
Sirens wail, in the distance fade
Lonely man, in his faded shade

Families laugh, theatres bright
See the joy, in the warm light
I'm just an echo, a shadow on the wall
Wandering these streets, trapped in my own fall

Searching for a sign, a beacon's glow
Every face a stranger, no one seems to know
Street corner preachers, with empty words
Selling hope, but it feels absurd

Wandering through tears from the sky
Wonder how long I can survive
Rain keeps falling tears from the sky
Wonder how long I can survive


FORGED DREAMS

Jenny's dreams are forged in fire
Steel and heat in her desire
Eighteen years, she's seen it all
From the factory to nightfall
In the welder's mask by day
Grit and sweat, no time to play

But by night, she's in the glow
Of neon lights, where secrets flow
To the rhythm of her grace
Hides her toil behind a face
In the mirrored walls, she dreams
In the shadows, silent screams

On that stage, she's more than steel
A dancer's heart she can't conceal
With every turn, she sheds her chains
A ballerina's hope remains

In the factory's grind, she's just a name
But in her mind, she's in the frame

She's got the ticket in her hand
This audition's her one-night stand
In this crowded room of dreams
She steps forward, or so it seems
Spotlight's on, heartbeat fast
A chance to break free at last


JOHNNY FLIES

He'd chase the wind, with eyes so bright
Dreaming of the day, he'd take that flight

Johnny dreamed of skies so high
With kites in hand, he'd touch the sky
A boy with wings, a heart so bold
Through the winds of life, his story told

Johnny dreamed of skies so high
With kites in hand, he'd touch the sky
A boy with wings, a heart so bold
Through the winds of life, his story told

Johnny flies, beyond the plains
In his wing-suit, free from chains

Through the canyon's edge, he'd brave the dives
With the rush of air, he felt alive
With every leap, he'd taste the thrill
He conquered fear, against the hill

Johnny flies, beyond the plains
In his wing-suit, free from chains

But one fateful day, the canyon roared
Johnny's wings clipped, on a jagged sword
The sky grew dark, the winds did cry
For Johnny's soul, took its final dive

Johnny flies, beyond the plains
In the heavens, free from chains


SONG OF A SAILOR

On a ship bound for the West Indies
With the sky as wide as the ocean deep
I sail through storms and raging tempests
In the heart of the night, no time to sleep

I fight the waves and taste the danger
In this endless blue, my spirit keeps
Oh, the tales I tell, of the seas and skies
With the wind and salt in my eyes

I've seen wonders,
felt the thunder
Each mile a new disguise

Through Caribbean nights and fiery skies
I press on where the brave hearts dare
Finding treasures that no gold can buy
With each dawn that breaks, a renewed affair

From the tempest's roar to the sunset's cry
Every moment, I'm alive, I'm aware
The horizon calls with whispers tender
And in this dance, my soul lays bare


CARVED INTO MY HEART

You brought home that first kitten, oh, the joy in your eyes
Taught you how to roller skate, beneath those summer skies
Your laughter was the music, that played in our days
In every single moment, you amazed

Those days, they're carved into my heart
Time may change us, but we'll never be apart

Little girl, you used to sit upon my knee
I remember drinking fake cups of tea
We'd explore the fields, see the wonders all around
From ladybugs to rainbows, magic could be found

Those days, they're carved into my heart
Time may change us, but we'll never be apart

Through the years you've grown, a woman strong and true
But I still see that little girl, in everything you do
Graduations, first loves, the tears and all the cheers
Every step you've taken, I've cherished through the years

Those days, they're carved into my heart
Time may change us, but we'll never be apart

And when night falls, I see those memories flash
The echoes of our laughter, like a tender photograph
Though the seasons change and time may weather lines
In the heart of your old man, your light forever shines

Those days, they're carved into my heart
Time may change us, but we'll never be apart


WAVES WE’D RIDE

No one could stop us, on the edge we'd lean
You, me, and the glimmer in between
But those dark clouds came rolling in
We lost you to a needle and the life you'd been

Imagining now, if you were by our side
The stages we'd conquer, the waves we’d ride

Before the fame, we played those cords so loud
In the garage, we dreamed with nothing but a crowd

We'd write our songs, so young and free
Times we'd laugh until the three
But darker clouds did come our way
And took our brother, led him astray

Now the spotlight’s on, but it feels so dim
'Cause without you here, it’s hard to begin
The dreams we chased have come and gone
But we still play your favorite song
Imagining now, if you were by our side
The stages we'd conquer, the waves we’d ride

Some nights I still hear your guitar's cry
In those riffs and solos, we soared so high
You lived fast, burned bright, like a shooting star
Now we're left with echoes of who you are

We miss you every night we take the stage
Your spirit's in the chords we play


EVERY LINE ON MY FACE

Daring dreams and whispered fears
It’s hard to face them after all these years
With every tear and every laugh
We paved our way to a different path
Along the light, through darkest nights
We found our peace in the morning light

As the years go by, the pages turn
Every wrinkle tells a story, every scar we earn
We chased the pride, we fought the fight
Mistakes we made, in the dead of night

Time won’t wait, it’s moving on
Every line on my face, sings a song

Through shattered dreams and restless nights
We held on tight, through the endless fights

With every dawn that breaks anew
We find ourselves, and the road we've traveled through

From the high of love to the lows of loss
We've paid the price, and we've felt the cost
But still we rise, despite the toll
As time won't wait, it takes its roll

Gazed upon the stars at night
Found the truth in morning's light
Through the pain, through strife, we grow
With every scar, with every woe

And as the seasons change, we see it clear
The journey made, through every single tear
Time won’t wait, it’s moving on
Every line on my face, sings a song


THE RAIN WILL CEASE

Hearts pound like a drummer's beat
As we take shelter from the enemy's fleet
Crumbling walls and streets once whole
Now shattered pieces of shattered souls
In the silence, whispers grow loud
The heavy rain becomes our shroud
Each one a momentary pain
In this silence, a deafening sound

One day the rain will cease
And the sun will heal our scars
But now we live in fear's release
Where shadows dim our shining stars

In the shadowlands
Bullets fall like drops of rain
Each one with a pain
That echoes through the night again
One day the clouds will part
And the sun will rise once more

Through the fire and the night,
we strive with every heartbeat to survive

One day, the rain will cease
And the sun will heal our scars
But now we live in fear's release
Where shadows dim our shining stars
