Dio - The Last In Line

1. We Rock

You watch their faces

You'll see the traces

Of the things they want to be

But only we can see

 

They come for killing

They leave and still it seems

The cloud that's left behind

Oh, can penetrate your mind

 

But sail on, sing a song, carry on

Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock

 

We pray to someone

But when it's said and done

It's really all the same

With just a different name

 

So many voices

All giving choices

If we listen they will say

Oh, we can find the way

 

But we'll sail on, sing a song, carry on

Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock

We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock

We Rock!

 

We Rock

You watch their faces

You'll see the traces

Of the things they want to be

But only we can see

 

They come for killing

They leave and still it seems

The cloud that's left behind

Can penetrate your mind

 

Sail on, sing a song, carry on

Cause We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock

We Rock, We Rock, We Rock, We Rock

 

Ride out - stand and shout - carry on

Sail on - Sing your song - carry on

 

Cause We Rock, We Rock, see how We Rock

We Rock

That's rock

We Rock

We Rock

 

2. The Last In Line

We're a ship without a storm

The cold without the warm

Light inside the darkness that it needs, yeah

 

We're a laugh without a tear

The hope without the fear

We are coming - home

 

We're off to the witch

We may never never never come home

But the magic that we'll feel

Is worth a lifetime

 

We're all born upon the cross

The throw before the toss

You can release yourself

But the only way is down

 

We don't come alone

We are fire we are stone

We're the hand that writes

Then quickly moves away

 

We'll know for the first time

If we're evil or divine

We're the last in line

We're the last in line

 

Two eyes from the east

It's the angel or the beast

And the answer lies between

The good and bad

 

We search for the truth

We could die upon the tooth

But the thrill of just the chase

Is worth the pain

 

We'll know for the first time

If we're evil or divine

We're the last in line

We're the last in line

 

We're off to the witch

We may never never never come home

But the magic that we'll feel

Is worth a lifetime

 

We're all born upon the cross

The throw before the toss

You can release yourself

But the only way you go is down

 

We'll know for the first time

If we're evil or divine

We're the last in line

We're the last in line

 

3. Breathless

You said a single word

But no one really heard

Sometimes we scream alone

 

It's always worse at night

When darkness kills the light

We're in the danger zone

 

You wait with pounding heart

You know it's just the start

 

Cause you're Breathless, ready to burn

Breathless, willing to learn

Breathless, the circle still turns

You're Breathless

 

Living inside your mind

Who knows the things you'll find

There could be hell or rainbows

 

But it's a funny thing

The more you feel the sting

You're just a leaf that the wind blows

 

You've been this way before

One step and you're through the door

 

And you're Breathless, ready to burn

Breathless, the circle still turns

Breathless, willing to learn

You're Breathless

 

Repeat the 1th verse...

 

4. I Speed At Night

Dark touches send rushed through the brain

Black's whiter, burns brighter than the flame

No shadows, just whispers in the wind

No faces, just places to begin

I just come seeking pleasure, I hate the light

 

I speed at night, at night

 

My demons, they seem to disappear

No vision, I only see to hear

Protection, I never needed none

Direction, just nowhere near the sun

You've go some stairs to heaven, you may be right

I only know in my world, I hate the light

I speed at night

 

Dark touches send rushed through the brain

Black's whiter, burns brighter than the flame

No shadows, just whispers in the wind

No faces, just places to begin

I just come seeking pleasure, I hate the light

 

You've got some stair to heaven, you may be right

I only know in my world, I hate the light

 

I speed at night

 

5. One Night In The City

Johnny was a dark child

He was promised to us all

But rides in the night, can lift you out of sight

When they call

 

Sally was a princess

She was chosen for the crown

But chains can't stop the sound

 

Of one night in the city

One night looking pretty

 

The someone opened doorways

And Johnny slipped away

Running for the bright, where dark is always light

But there's no day

 

The princess saw the dark child

And the dark child said her name

 

Come steal away, we'll play the game

 

Do you watch, do you see, do you know the people in me

I'm the bite, I'm the bark, I'm the scream

Are you poor, are you sure, are you holy, are you pure

I can tell you tales you just might not believe

 

One night in the city, one night looking pretty

One night in the city, one night looking pretty

 

The children shared the wonder

Of the leather and the lace

But one child went away, and one child stayed to play

 

For one night in the city

 

6. Evil Eyes

Hide in the midnight

Turn out the lights, you'll see them anyway

Sail into never, they'll follow wherever you can go

And take you to the places you don't know

 

It's the call of the city

The way that black's pretty to the purest heart

It's places of pleasure

They promise you treasure if you fly

And then there goes the soul of you and I

 

Oh do you ever think about

The way I caught the rainbow

I'll be there where fire makes you dance

I'm gonna give you the look

That opens up the skies

 

I've got Evil Eyes...

 

Hide in the midnight

Turn out the light, they'll see you anyway

Sail into never, they'll follow wherever you can go

 

I've got Evil Eyes...

 

7. Mystery

Can you hear me

Can you see

There's a storm on the edge of the sky

Does it matter

It does to me, I can tell you why

 

When there's thunder, there should be rain

But it don't always follow the rule

And is the wise man always right? No he can play the fool

 

It's always a Mystery, not what it seems to be

It's always a Mystery, just like you and me

 

We are lightning

We are flame

And we burn at the touch of a spark

If there's fire, but no one sees

The there's only the dark

 

Just imagine, will you try

I can see that you've opened your mind

Silver linings can disappear, but they always shine

 

It's always a Mystery, not what it seems to be

It's always a Mystery, just like you and me

 

8. Eat Your Heart Out

It's been a long hot road I've been upon

Through the desert of your soul

I've looked high and low for water

But it's not there

 

All the promises of springtime

Turned to lies, so cold

But I'm stronger than you know

And I've come to let you go

 

Go eat your heart out

You've been a bad, bad girl

You've been hungry all of your life

So eat it out

 

I've been a prisoner just locked away

Inside your velvet jail

But it don't matter at all

Some things can grow without the light

 

Spinning cages for her pleasure

Weaving chains to hold the prize

Magic moments with the jailer

All on fire, and then he dies

 

Go eat your heart out

You've been a bad, bad girl

You've been hungry all of your life

So eat it out

 

We speed across emotions

And then we lose our hold

We move on wings of passion

That we can't control

 

Repeatthe 1th verse

 

9. Egypt (The Chains Are On)

In the land of the lost horizon

Where the queen lies dark and cold

When the stars won't shine, then the story's told

 

When the world was milk and honey

And the magic was strong and true

Then the strange ones came and the people knew

 

That the chains are on

 

In the land of no tomorrow

Where you pray just to end each day

And your life just slowly melts away

 

Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers

Come and sail on my golden sea

Maybe one day you'll be just like me...and that's free

 

But still your chains are on

 

You've seen them walking on the water

You've seen flying through the sky

They were frightening in the darkness

They had rainbows in their eyes

 

When the world was milk and honey

And the magic was strong and true

The the strange ones came and the people knew

That the chains are on
