[Music: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann/Gianola - Words: Dirkschneider/Kaufmann]
I played the game - I broke the rules
The truth is always cruel
It's not for me to win or lose
This one will be on you
Sometimes it's hard to be tough
And play this way so rough
I give it straight - you know why
I want it all - I'll take it all
I don't know why - don't wanna hide
Don't want forever lie
Now it's time for all of us
So let's break free
No matter what you say
You know it's hard to be honest
It's hard not to lie
You know it's hard to be honest
It's hard not to lie
All hail the truth and damn the lies
There's so much we can do
Now it's on you to deal the cards
The joker breaks the rules
So take a look at what you see
The mirror never lies
The time has come to say farewell
So leave it all behind you all
[BRIDGE]
[CHORUS]
No matter how - you found it out
It's time to give the truth
I've seen it all - in black or white
The hardest thing to do
[BRIDGE]
[CHORUS]

Gli U.D.O. sono un gruppo heavy metal tedesco formatosi nel 1987 da Udo Dirkschneider, celebre voce degli Accept fino al 1987. Dirkschneider ha dato vita a questo nuovo progetto dopo la sua uscita dagli Accept, portando con sé uno stile musicale potente e aggressivo, caratterizzato da riff di chitarra martellanti e testi in inglese che affrontano temi come il potere, la libertà e la lotta contro le ingiustizie. Gli U.D.O. hanno pubblicato una decina di album in studio, ottenendo un seguito fedele nel mondo metal. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "Animal Heart", "They Want War", e "Manowar". L'album "Faceless World" del 1989 è considerato uno dei loro lavori più importanti. La band ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui gli ex-Accept Peter Baltes e Stefan Kaufmann.
