Overkill

Can you sleep at night 
Do you believe in yourself 
the way that I do 
or only sometimes

Does it ring a bell
the story of my younger days
what does it do to you 

Strange how lives can change 
in the blink of an eye 
you’re the one to blame 
you hear it every time 

There’s one thing 
spinning in my mind 
Tell me what’s the truth 
Are we the same 
or a different kind 
I want the same 
as you 

Is your conscience clear
are you prepared to forgive
yourself like I did before
what’s in the back of your mind

I wish that you could have
everything that you need
the way it is for me

Strange how lives can change
in the blink of an eye

There’s one thing 
spinning in my mind 
Tell me what’s the truth 
Are we the same 
or a different kind 
I want the same 
as you 
Are we the same 
or a different kind 
I want the same 
as you

I want the same as you

Between her high heels and her purse 
hangs the dress on the bathroom door 
she’s been waiting for a while 
sheds a tear on the kitchen floor 

In the cold dark winter night 
You’ve never been her shining star 
she worries when you’re out alone 
you’d just give her another scar 

There is no way back after tonight 
The morning makes you realise 
what she’s known about you all the while 
and the guilt it will eat you alive 

There’s a million regrets on your way 
but only one sun in your sky 
Do you know how to live in the dark? 
now you whisper 

Madeleine 
forgive me my sorrow
and let’s begin 
all over tomorrow
so I can win 
your heart back like I did 
before 
And you will see
all that I’ve been through
to some degree
I projected onto you
but just let me be
Prince Charming at least for
tonight

You wear that cologne, you wear that shirt 
she gave you under the Christmas tree
sick at heart you ring the bell 
but she decided to be free 

her eyes betray what burns inside 
a flame so small like candle light 
You can only think of one thing to say 

Madeleine 
forgive me my sorrow
and let’s begin 
all over tomorrow
so I can win 
your heart back like I did 
before 
And you will see
all that I’ve been through
to some degree
I projected onto you
but just let me be
Prince Charming at least for
tonight

CRITICAL COUNTRY

INTO THE WILD

Theirs is a story of yearning, loneliness, realisation, spirituality, evolution and love. It all comes together in the music of Magnum Fox, where unbridled passion gives way to inescapable flirtations with the simplicities of life. In their music, there is a worthy reach for something deeper yet fun, something mysterious but romantic. Magnum Fox displays a desire to dream, a willingness to fight, to find the light of love and life.
