[Sterix]

Finally starting to feel myself again despite STILL being on antibiotics for several weeks (never new you could be on them so long but my consultant said I needed to be on them at least EIGHT WEEKS! o_O  ). Damn big toe getting infected in the bone...

But I'm slowly on the mend and getting back into the swing of things.

Anyway, thought I'd post one of my older songs for a change. This one all the way back from 1989. It's got a cracking hard rock tune to it that has been locked in my head for the last 30 years. The writing is a lot simpler than what I usually post but it's a tune that doesn't really call for deep or complex lysrics. It was actually written to accompany a story I was trying to write at the time called Bernadette: Gateway to Hell part 2 (a sequel to a shortish story I'd written earlier in the year called - you might have guessed - Gateway to Hell). I never did get much into that one.



DANGER ZONE

Verse
Living in the danger zone
Don't be afraid that you're alone
Cos you ain't alone
No you ain't alone
Ignore the fear

Verse
In the night you hear her call
She is breaking protocol
But you will not fall
Man you can beat them all
Cos you are here

Pre-chorus
To do my bidding
Don't let fear
Cloud your thinking
When all hell is breaking loose!

Chorus
Fight tonight!
You have come too far to fall
Stand upright
You're the tallest of the tall
Feel the heat
In the danger zone tonight
You will be
The saviour of our plight

Verse
Living in the danger zone
Is like being on death row
When you gotta go
Might as well steal the show
And you can take it

Verse
Message coming loud and clear
She is close and getting nearer
Forget your fear
It's got no place in here
But don't forsake it

Pre-chorus
At your peril
You can make it
Beat the Devil
As all hell is breaking loose!

Chorus
Fight tonight!
You have come too far to fall
Stand upright
You're the tallest of the tall
Feel the heat
In the danger zone tonight
You can be
The saviour of our plight

INSTRUMENTAL

Verse
Living in the danger zone
Better make yourself at home
Cos the time has come
Prove that you are the one
Pray for your soul

Pre-chorus
Fight the fire
Lose control
As you tire
And all hell is breaking loose!

Chorus
Fight tonight!
You have come too far to fall
Stand upright
You're the tallest of the tall
Feel the heat
In the danger zone tonight
You can be
The saviour of our plight

Post-chorus
In the night
(in the danger zone tonight)
In the night
(in the danger zone tonight)
In the night
(in the danger zone tonight)
In the night

In the danger zone!

Hi
Pleased to hear you're on the mend been unwell myself so done very little recently and beyond for that matter so I have not been on here of late.

Anyway I've read through your lyrics and really can't see anything that I would change I can say it's very well written and structured I enjoyed the story and if you intend going forward with this would like to hear the end result take it easy.

Cheers Royston
