Court in the Act

(English, Ramsey, Tippins)

The Vikings they were conquerors, they sought to rule the land,
Many peaceful villages were crushed beneath their hands,
Driven by the power of Lucifer and Thor,
They pillaged and they plundered, took women for their whores,
Blades of steel.

The Vikings sailed to foreign shores, with steel at their command,
Seeking warmth and shelter, they roamed across the land,
Zandor was their leader, there's none so fearless and brave,
He'd guide them through the coming months,
Through winter they'd be safe,
Blades of Steel.

Shining sun warms the earth, autumn time has come,
People gathered in the fields, the summer's almost gone,
By the fireside, they would laugh and dance and sing,
Prepared for anything the winter months would bring,
But soon they would fall by blades of steel.

Blades of steel, ripping through the town,
Blades of steel, tearing you all down,
Blades of steel, put terror in your hearts
Blades of steel, tear the world apart.

(English, Ross, Tippins)

Looking for a way to put me down,
I gotta stop your hanging around,
You're telling me I'm crazy, but I'm not a fool,
I don't live by the book, I don't want no rules.

Trying to make it through all the rough times,
All the way to the top, it's a tough ride,
They're all calling me mad, I've gotta prove them wrong,
I don't care what it takes, I can't wait too long.

CHORUS
No turning back, can't stop me now,
No turning back, so don't put me down,
No turning back, cos I told you before
No turning back, no turning back, break down the door.

What's it like at the top, it's a tough ride,
You never know who's taking your side,
Jealous people who are are causing you pain,
And there's the days when it drives you insane,
No turning back, no time for dreaming,
I love this life, I feel like screaming,
You all should know, there's a lesson for learning,
Deep in my heart, there's a flame that is burning.

Gotta keep on trying when the going's tough,
Cos you can do anythin if you want it enough,
Believe in yourself, no-one else but you,
And if you've got the guts, you can make it through.

CHORUS

No turning back!

Out in the cold, you've got nowhere to run, but you're free again,
When you're alone you remember the day in your cell,
You were convicted and sentenced to life,
Your cries of "Injustice", unheard,
Locked inside, you planned your break,
Now you're free.

[Chorus]
So you've got to run again,
You've broken your chains,
Now you've got to run, run, run.

Gotta break free!

Now that you're out, you can look fot the ones who condemned you,
Show the world that you're not just a pawn in this game,
All of their faces you see in your mind,
Your memories build up into hate,
All you've been through, gonna put them through Hell,

[Chorus]

Break out and run, your escape has begun,
But the Law's on your ass once again,
Wanted and hunted, you know you can't hide,
So keep running as fast as you can,
You know you were innocent, you know they were wrong,
And now they've turned you into a killer,
Another wasted life now, just thrown it away,
So with their own lives you're gonna make them pay.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Gotta break free!
