The sirens are screaming   and the fires are howling   Way down in the valley tonight      There’s a man in the shadows   with a gun in his eye   And a blade shining oh so bright      There’s evil in the air   and there’s thunder in the sky   And a killer’s on the bloodshot streets      And down in the tunnel   where the deadly are rising   Oh I swear I saw a young boy   Down in the gutter   He was starting to foam in the heat      Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world   That’s pure and good and right      And wherever you are and wherever you go   There’s always gonna be some light      But I gotta get out   I gotta break it out now   Before the final crack of dawn      So we gotta make the most of our one night together   When it’s over you know   We’ll both be so alone      Like a bat out of hell   I’ll be gone when the morning comes      When the night is over   Like a bat out of hell   I’ll be gone gone gone      Like a bat out of hell   I’ll be gone when the morning comes      When the day is done   And the sun goes down   And the moonlight’s shining through      Then like a sinner before   the gates of heaven   I’ll come crawling on back to you      I’m gonna hit the highway   like a battering ram   On a silver black phantom bike      When the metal is hot   and the engine is hungry   And we’re all about to see the light      Nothing ever grows   in this rotten old hole   And everything is stunted and lost      And nothing really rocks   And nothing really rolls   And nothing’s ever worth the cost      And I know that I’m damned   if I never get out   And maybe I’m damned if I do      But with any other beat   I got left in my heart   You know I’d rather be damned with you      If I gotta be damned   you know I wanna be damned   Dancing through the night with you      If I gotta be damned   you know I wanna be damned   Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned      If gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned      Dancing through the night   Dancing through the night   Dancing through the night with you      Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world   That’s pure and good and right      And wherever you are and wherever you go   There’s always gonna be some light      But I gotta get out   I gotta break it out now   Before the final crack of dawn      So we gotta make the most of our one night together   When it’s over you know   We’ll both be so alone      Like a bat out of hell   I’ll be gone when the morning comes      When the night is over   Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone      Like a bat out of hell   I’ll be gone when the morning comes      But when the day is done   And the sun goes down   And the moonlight’s shining through      Then like a sinner before   the gates of heaven   I’ll come crawling on back to you      Then like a sinner before   the gates of heaven   I’ll come crawling on back to you      I can see myself   Tearing up the road   Faster than any other boy has ever gone   And my skin is rough but my soul is ripe   And no one’s gonna stop me now   I gotta make my escape   But I can’t stop thinking of you   And I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late   I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late      Then I’m dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun   Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike   And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell   And the last thing I see is my heart   Still beating   Breaking out of my body   And flying away   Like a bat out of hell      Then I’m dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun   Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike   And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell   And the last thing I see is my heart   Still beating   Still beating   Breaking out of my body and flying away   Like a bat out of hell   Like a bat out of hell   Like a bat out of hell   Like a bat out of hell   Like a bat out of hell   Like a bat out of hell
