Paul Stanley Album

(Paul Stanley/Desmond Child/Andreas Carlsson)

Frustrated, degraded, down before you're done
Rejection, depression, can't get what you want
You ask me how I make my way
You ask me everywhere and why
You hang on every word I say
But the truth sounds like a lie
Live to win, 'till you die, 'till the light dies in your eyes
Live to win, take it all, just keep fighting till you fall
Obsessive, compulsive, suffocate your mind
Confusion, delusions, kill your dreams in time
You ask me how I took the pain
Crawled up from my lowest low
Step by step and day by day
'Till there's one last breath to go
Live to win, 'till you die, 'till the light dies in your eyes
Live to win, take it all, just keep fighting till you fall
Day by day, kickin' all the way, I'm not cavin' in
Let another round begin, live to win
Yeah, live, yeah, win
Live to win, 'till you die, 'till the light dies in your eyes
Live to win, take it all, just keep fighting 'till you fall
Day by day, kickin' all the way, I'm not cavin' in
Let another round begin, live to win
Live to win
Live to win
Yeah, live, yeah, win

(Paul Stanley/Desmond Child/Marti Frederiksen)

Falling like the rain
Crashing down again
Sinking all alone...
The walls are closing in
The pain is just beginning
I'm feeling like I've never known
I've never known...
I never wanted to ever hurt you
The trust is broken
Salvation
Lift me, lift me up
Forgive me with your touch
Lift me, higher
Straight to your love...
Shaken to the ground
Fear is wrapped around me
Fighting for my life...
Shattered by the truth
Scattered like the ashes
All that's left of you and I
I've realised
All you wanted
Was something real
And now I'm haunted
Lift me, lift me up
Forgive me with your touch
Lift me, higher
Straight to your love...
I hear the howling of the wind
It's crying out your name
I'd give my soul if we could start
All over...
All over again...
I never wanted to ever hurt you
My world is ending
Salvation
Lift me, lift me up
Forgive me with your touch
Lift me, higher
Straight to your love...
Heal me, save my life
Redeem me, make us one
Lift me, higher
Straight to your love...

(Paul Stanley/Desmond Child/Andreas Carlsson)

In a bed in my room
All wrapped up in my own cocoon
In my head I see you
Like I'm stuck in a déja-vu
And it's always the same mind games
It's a dangerous situation, insane
It's a warp on my soul and I've lost all control
When I'm all alone and I dream of you
I wake up, I wake up screaming
9-1-1, no one hears my cries
I break up, I wake up screaming
Why must I grieve
For a lie that I still believe
It's a waste, what a sin
It's a fight I can never win
Anywhere that I go, you go
Baby, even in my own reflection, you show
Like a ghost by my side with a hold on my mind
When I'm all alone and I dream of you
I wake up, I wake up screaming
9-1-1, no one hears my cries
I break up, I wake up screaming
Ooh-ooooh...
On and on
I'm running in slow motion
'Till the dawn
When the morning saves me...
When I'm all alone and I dream of you
I wake up, I wake up screaming
9-1-1, no one hears my cries
I break up, I wake up screaming
All alone and I dream of you
I wake up, I wake up screaming
9-1-1, no one hears my cries
I break up, I wake up screaming

(Paul Stanley/Pete Masitti)

Do you remember when you said I was the only one
We'll watch the years go passing by
I never dreamed that with a love I thought had just begun
I'd ever hear you say goodbye
When we meet and I start smiling
I'm just lying through my tears
Baby, every time I see you with your arms around another
Everytime my world comes crashing down
And it's all bittersweet, my heart skips a beat
Everytime I see you around
I go to places, but it's not the way it used to be
I only picture you and I
My friends all tell me I can push you from my memories
There's only so much I can try
When I touch your hand to greet you
I'm not sure that I'll let go
Baby, every time I see you with your arms around another
Everytime my world comes crashing down
And it's all bittersweet, my heart skips a beat
Everytime I see you
I found my way to a warm embrace
But I still think about ya
Why can't somebody else take your place
I can't stand it
Yeah, I found my way to a warm embrace
But I still think about ya
How can somebody else take your place
When the things that I do bring me closer to you
When I say (mmm-mmm-mmm)
I can't stand it - no (mmm-mmm-mmm)
Do you remember when you said I was the only one
Every time I see you with your arms around another
Everytime my world comes crashing down
And it's all bittersweet, my heart skips a beat
Everytime I see you around
Baby, every time I see you with your arms around another
Everytime my world comes crashing down
And it's all bittersweet, my heart skips a beat
Everytime I see you around

(Paul Stanley/Andreas Carlsson)

Some people say love comes once in a lifetime
Some people say it's behind every door
I saw your eyes and I knew for the first time
No more playing my emotions
No more aiming at my heart
You make me bulletproof, that's what you do
I feel invincible when lying next to you
You've got the arrows bouncing off my skin
I lost a love before, this time I'm gonna win
You make me ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah)
Ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah)
Hidin' my heart was my only protection
Keepin' my distance to keep me alive
You took it all in another direction
No more firing at my feelings
No more shots to take me down
You make me bulletproof, that's what you do
I feel invincible when lying next to you
You've got the arrows bouncing off my skin
I lost a love before, this time I'm gonna win
You make me ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah) yeah...
Ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah)
No more playing my emotions
No more aiming at my heart
You make me bulletproof
Ooh, you make me oh-oh oh-oh, yeah
Aah, oh-oh oh-oh yeah
Oh-oh oh-oh yeah
Aah-ah, oh-oh oh-oh, yeah
You make me bulletproof that's what you do
I feel invincible when lying next to you
You've got the arrows bouncing off my skin
I lost a love before, this time I'm gonna win
You make me ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah) yeah
Ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah)
You make me bulletproof (ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah)
Ooh-yeah (ooh-yeah)

(Paul Stanley/Desmond Child/Andreas Carlsson)

It's all about you!
I can't take it
I've been workin' myself to the bone
Just to make it
To the moment that we're all alone
In my mind I pull your body closer
Every second feels like a day
In my mind I'm lyin' next to you
It's just a minute away, a minute away
I don't care where it ends tonight
That's right, it's all about you
Givin' it up until the morning light
That's life, it's all about you
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Can you feel it?
It's electric when our souls collide
Girl I need it
You're the drug that keeps me alive
In my world I'm nothing but a number
In your eyes I feel like a king
Lightning strikes get ready for the thunder
Just a minute away, a minute away
I don't care where it ends tonight
That's right, it's all about you
Givin' it up until the morning light
That's life, it's all about you
Here I am knockin' at your door
Let me come inside
Don't quit now baby we got more
Hold on, hold on
I don't care where it ends tonight
That's right, it's all about you
Givin' it up until the morning light
That's life, it's all about you
I don't care where it ends tonight
That's right, it's all about you
Givin' it up until the morning light
That's life, it's all about you
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do
It's all about you
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do
It's all about you
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do
It's all about you
It's all about you

(Paul Stanley/Andreas Carlsson)

We both had stories, loves, and lifetimes before
Left us wanting for more
But it kept us on that journey
With everyone we meet, we open the door
There were others for sure, but they never got to know me
It's all a way to a life worth living
So don't mistake what I'm givin'
When every day is done I only wanna run to you
Let me hear the words I'm sayin'
When you're in trouble I will be the one to pull you through
You might not be the first
But for me your always second to none...
Sometimes the fears we have will get in the way
And the things that people say can make it so much harder
The chance for love can look you right in the eye
Yet it passes you by
So live a life with no happy ending
But I won't lose it all pretending
When every day is done I only wanna run to you
Let me hear the words I'm sayin'
When you're in trouble I will be the one to pull you through
But for me your always second to none
Life has a way of making things brighter, lighter
Don't throw it away, it takes a way to see clearly
Believe me
It's all a way to a life worth living
So don't mistake what I'm givin'
When every day is done I only wanna run to you
When you're in trouble I will be the one to pull you through
But for me your always second to none...
When every day is done I only wanna run to you
Let me hear the words I'm sayin'
When you're in trouble I will be the one to pull you through
You might not be the first
But for me your always second to none...
Ooh-ooh
Second to none...

(Paul Stanley/Holly Knight/Charlie Midnight)

You tell me what you want
And you try to tell me what I need
But your smile can never sell me what I don't believe
Now the gun is in your hand
And all the words are on your tongue
They gave you everything when you were young
You threw it all away when you were done
You pray you found the chosen someone
It's not me
I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
Now there's danger every second that you breathe
It's not me
I don't wanna be
Another truth cuts like a razor
You're gonna have to save yourself
You better look for someone else
You turn the world your way
And you lose the truth within your lies
But the feeling that you crave, money never buys
(Money never buys)
All the warnings come too late
And your body starts to scream
And if you think you see me in your dreams
It's not me
I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
Now there's danger every second that you breathe
No, it's not me
I don't wanna be
Another truth cuts like a razor
You better look for someone else
When you run in a world full of touble
Trouble always runs to you anyway
Now the damage is done and you want me to stay
But it's not me
No, No, No
They gave you everything when you were young
You threw it all away when you were done
You pray you found the chosen someone
It's not me
I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
It's not me
I don't wanna be
Another truth cuts like a razor
No, it's not me
I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
You're gonna have to save yourself
You better look for someone else
'Cause it's not me

(Paul Stanley)

I want you to know
That I'm thinkin' about you now
Time passes so slow
I remember goodbye and the tears in your eyes, but...
Who's to say why we stay with another?
Counting days 'til we're holding each other
I can hear your voice inside my head still ringing my ears
I can close my eyes and feel you beside me
Well I hope and pray to find a way to hold you somehow
I'm just lovin' you with out you now
I want you to know
That your face is all I can see
And now my feelings still grow
You and I can't deny what we're feeling
We'll get by on all these moments we're stealing
I can hear your voice inside my head still ringing my ears
I can close my eyes and feel you beside me
Well I hope and pray to find a way to hold you somehow
I'm just lovin' you with out you now
It's all that I can do
Lovin' you without you now
I'll find my way to you
Lovin' without you
Lovin' without you, yeah!
Oh, we get by on these moments together
Holding on 'til we find out forever
I want you to know
That I'm thinking about ya
I can hear your voice inside my head still ringing my ears
I can close my eyes and feel you beside me
Well I hope and pray to find a way to hold you somehow
I'm just lovin' you with out you now
I can hear your voice inside my head still ringing my ears
I can close my eyes and feel you beside me
Well I hope and pray to find a way to hold you somehow
I'm just lovin' you with out you now
And I'm gonna get to you somehow

(Paul Stanley/Desmond Child/John Lowery)

They say it's over
But I have just begun to fight
It may look hopeless
But that's the moment from what's right
Someday, someway, somewhere
I'm gonna take you there
Where angels dare to fly
Some people wait forever
Some people just run out of time
Some people live in darkness
And give up just before the light
You (you), me (me)
No we won't back down
Let all the others wait
I want someday, someway, right now
The sun is risin'
I see confusion everywhere
The world that's dyin'
There's revolution in the air
Someday, someway, somewhere
I'm gonna take you there
Where angels dare to fly
Some people cry a river
But never see the other side
Some people bow down broken
And end up swallowed by the tide
You (you), me (me)
No we won't back down
Let all the others wait
I want someday, someway, right now
Some people wait forever
Some people just run out of time
Some people live in darkness
And give up just before the light
Some people cry a river
But never see the other side
Some people bow down broken
And end up swallowed by the tide
You (you), me (me)
No we won't back down
Let all the others wait
I want someday, someway, right now
