slava donskoy amazingly the whole album sounds like old classic Samson records circa 1979-80 with Bruce Bruce fronting
Highly recommended!

Out of school and on the street Lost the battle and feel the heat Time bomb ticks where once a heart beat Sixteen years of fighting back There aint a lot of lovin’ when you’re under attack Day and night I’m through with all that Go by the book, you’re all the same Taking a life, but taking no blame Drown the body, drown the pain Cruisin’ time and lost the fight Feeling wrong, but feeling right Cold as the water, cold as the night Dark night, black light, little girl shoulda stayed home tonight Jump the bridge and take your life away Dark night, black light, little girl shoulda stayed home tonight Jump the bridge and take your life tonight Rag doll body dragged up on the shore Suicide girl couldn’t take it no more Mother’s story “she was lonely before” Standing alone in the wind and the rain Wracked with pain, I’m never gonna be lonely again

Only days do I have left here But I’ll stay here for eternity You always got everything you wanted Now you’ve lost yourself in me Towers of stone locked me away from you Our game has come to its end I will always hate and love you Oh I’d do it over again Roaming, lonely I’m not a child of the night SO, Don’t touch I’ll scream Don’t touch I’ll scream Don’t touch I’ll scream Don’t touch I’ll scream Once you would have risked everything So I could be by your side Now you’ve turned it all against me What feelings do I see in your eyes Call me a witch or an adulteress Your own convictions you can’t believe How I hate what you have done to me But I’ll love you for eternity

I’ve gotta situation that I know I’m gonna to win The alibies you’re feeding me are wearing way too thin You say I’m being stupid, but you’re headin’ for the door – HUH! Are you counting down the minutes till you go and see your whore… She loves you, I hate you, is that what you’re telling yourself? She’s glamour, I’m sleazy and all I ever do is yell……… so, Go sleep with the enemy …………….. I DARE YA! Go sleep with the enemy …………….. I DARE YA! Go sleep with the enemy …………….. Go sleep with the enemy …………….. The hatred that I’m feelin’ - I could put her in the ground I could make her disappear and she NEVER would be found…… oh no, I could have her taken out, in the middle of the night Slip a rope around her neck, and pull it KINDA tight! She loves you, I hate you, …….. at last you worked it out for yourself! Be careful, I’ll take her, to her own little private hell…………….. so, Go sleep with the enemy …………….. I DARE YA! Go sleep with the enemy …………….. I DARE YA! Go sleep with the enemy …………….. Go sleep with the enemy …………….. (x OUTRO)

The Shining 07:13
Strollin down the road with the bad boys on parade Never get no trouble cos they know I’ve got it made Comin on strong like I did so long ago Changing my ways and filling my days with fun Don’t look now Don’t look now Out on the tiles and putting on the style So, don’t look now The heat burned out and all just about to blow My folks think I’m crazy but they really don’t want to know Keep it up, hang it out Keep it up and roll it on Keep it up, pushin it Keep it up and roll it on out I’m Shining, I’m Shining You know you’ll never bring me down I’m Shining, I’m Shining You know I’ll always be around I’m Shining, I’m Shining You know you’ll never bring me down

Encumbrance 05:33
Let me tell my story ‘bout another little girl Who her mamma never wanted When she came into this world Just another screamin’ kid, and another mouth to feed Ain’t gonna buy no babys milk The money’s gone on speed. Now she don’t mean nuthin’to me and it ain’t no cryin’ shame I won’t waste my life away and her face don’t fit the frame I’m breakin’ loose from mother goose onto another day Who left the child who never smiled got on board and sailed away...? Encumbrance... I’m down the railroad track Encumbrance...I ain’t never lookin’ back Encumbrance... Headin’ out towards the sun Encumbrance... Takin’ care of number one Encumbrance... was all you mean’t to me Encumbrance...At last I’m feelin’free Encumbrance... No motherly embrace Encumbrance...know the name but not the face.. Now she don’t mean nuthin’to me and it ain’t no cryin’ shame Won’t cry my life away and I’ve had my share of pain Breakin’ loose from mother goose onto another day Got in the sack with Captain Jack got on board and sailed away... Encumbrance... I’m down the railroad track Encumbrance...I ain’t never lookin’ back Encumbrance... Headin’ out towards the sun Encumbrance... Takin’ care of number one Encumbrance... was all you mean’t to me Encumbrance...At last I’m feelin’ free Encumbrance... No motherly embrace Encumbrance...know the name but not the face.. Middle 8: I tried so hard to reach out... I found it hard to shout out... You tried to poison my dreams Now your’e hearing my screams... Encumbrance... I’m down the railroad track Encumbrance...I ain’t never lookin’ back Encumbrance... Headin’ out towards the sun Encumbrance... Takin’ care of number one Encumbrance... was all you mean’t to me Encumbrance...At last I’m feelin’ free Encumbrance... No motherly embrace Encumbrance...know the name but not the face..

I can’t look in the mirror cos I’m frightened of what I might see Whose face is in that mirror, and will those eyes again be searing through me The wolves howl is getting louder, and I almost feel the heat from their breath Maybe soon I will run with them, though there’s just gotta be a little time left Lights take me away Where the stars are brighter Lights take me today Its so dark, and I’m frightened All around me lights are blinding There’s a storm that often rages in my head Through the blindness comes a whining, wolf packs screaming for their ranks to be fed They all say that “we can help you” And we are the ones to guide you back on course Cos none of them hear what I hear .............. HUH Or are clawed at by the moon’s pale white force Lights take me away Where the stars are brighter Lights take me today Its so dark, and I’m frightened SOLO ©Thunderstick 2017 Lights take me away Where the stars are brighter Lights take me today Its so dark, and I’m frightened Lights take me away Where the stars are brighter Lights take me today Its so dark, and I’m frightened Lights take me away Where the stars are brighter Lights take me today Its so dark, and I’m frightened

Blackwing 07:27
Its like a game of stop and start, going hard in for the kill Your words fall on empty grounds, no modern masquerade Now its time to change your deal Be drowned or burned, its all same A message flashed a distant cry, it’s not heaven Just learned to fly, now horrified ......... OH CHRIST I’m going under Pale angels tale see “the dragons in the skies, flying” New belladonna of the glow A blood bath whitened by the snow Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, looking for your silver lining Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, it all comes down to .............. careful timing Don’t leave me smashed against the rocks Avoid the sparks on a burning beach Can it ever be the same A figurine in emerald blue, no homesick child, Crying for the driving rain Another fire behind your eyes could easily be drowned by, just one lonely teardrop Black turned to white, day dressed as night........... OH CHRIST, am I a loser ©Thunderstick 2017 LYRICS: BLACKWING Pale angels tale see “the dragons in the skies, flying” New belladonna of the glow Pale angels tale see “the truth amongst the lies, lying” A blood bath whitened by the snow Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, looking for your silver lining Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, it all comes down to ........ careful timing Don’t leave me smashed against the rocks SOLO Just reaching out across the sea, couldn’t seem to be enough So sit caress your metal molten fingertips while, haggling over flesh and blood ......[laugh] Laugh all the time, sing death in rhyme, just give yourself up - to the master They never stop, the land now blackened out from sight, we’re going under, I cry Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, looking for your silver lining Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing ...........it all comes down to careful timing Black wing, ........... pull me from the fire Black wing, ........... >>>>>>>>Ends with chat, background music low singing <<<<<<<<<

I’m something different, I aint like the rest of your kind I was born where the sun will never ever shine I am the one you love to fear To walk among you is feeding hungry on your light The beast inside me is domination you can’t fight I am the one you love to fear Its getting blacker than black, comes another attack, You better run for cover cos my father’s high above you Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, the power’s with me still There’s heat n lightening when I’m setting down the score My being dictates even subservience from Thor I am the one you love to fear Its getting blacker than black, comes another attack, You better run for cover cos my father’s high above you Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, hallowed be your storm Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, the power’s with me still ©Thunderstick 2017 LYRICS: THUNDER THUNDER Its getting darker, its getting colder Its getting darker, its getting colder Hit it SOLO Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, hallowed be your storm Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, hallowed be your storm Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, take care of your own Thunder Thunder, Thunder Thunder, the power’s with me still

You sailed your life on a ship of dreams Tied to the mast of a thousand schemes You waved your friends goodbye Took flight like a firefly Like thunder from afar… You were caught standing in the snow blind cold Still trusting in a land of gold One star in a crowded sky Poured your heart out in a lullaby Like sunshine in the rain You wished for everyone to know just who you are Like a rising melody above a loud guitar The woman that you craved Couldn`t help you with the price you paid Building castles with a falsity of highs I close my eyes You always said our lives are a timeless flight We come and go at the speed of light We wave our loves goodbye We hear our calling and we all comply The wheel turns round again… You wished for everyone to know just who you are Like a rising melody above a loud guitar The woman that you craved Couldn`t help you with the price you paid Building castles with a falsity of highs I close my eyes The songs you sang will be always heard Goodbye once more my Thunderbird Sail forever on your ship of dreams Forever gliding upon silver streams The lightening spells your name… You wished for everyone to know just who you are Like a rising melody above a loud guitar The woman that you craved Couldn`t help you with the price you paid Building castles with a falsity of highs I close my eyes
