I was born in a backstreet
Where people live a dirty life
Of course it was different most of the time
But it was not my fault
A life in hell
I saw it every morning
Dreams'n'desires
Can't hide myself anymore
I tried to live in heaven
But this dream did not come true
I tried to live in heaven
Next time I'll try to knock on this door again
I've been hunting
Day and night
Oh, I've been losing
Please, hold me tight
Why am I here now
And what can I do
You tell me you're sorry
You know it ain't true
I tried to live in heaven
But this dream did not come true
I tried to live in heaven
Next time I'll try to knock on this door again
You know what I mean
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
Now I'm taking my chances
Everyday, everynight
You know what I'm talking about, man
No more backstreet life
A life in hell
I saw it every morning
Dreams and desires
Don't hide myself anymore
I tried to live in heaven
But this dream did not come true
I tried to live in heaven
Next time I'll try to knock on this door again
You know what I mean
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
I made it out of this hell you know what I mean
I tried to live in heaven
But this dream did not come true
I tried to live in heaven
Next time I'll try to knock on this door again
You know what I mean
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
'Cause when you throw in the cards
Life goes on and on
You're on a trip to nowhere
You'd better reach for the stars
Life goes on and on and on and on again
'Cause when you throw in the cards...
The lyrics TRIP TO NOWHERE of U.D.O. is also present in the album Faceless world (1990)
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.
