about

Push it over the limit.

lyrics

You gotta listen to the sounds of the night
You gotta stick to the road to survive
If you think that you're down on your luck
You know you've only begun
There is a promise that you'll never break
To keep survivin' and to keep a heart of gold
And never give in

Now there's ice in your veins
You know you're spinnin' the wheels of fate
That's the price that you pay
For livin' the run
Runnin' into the wind
Runnin' wild
Like someone possessed
By the spirit of glory

Take it over the limit
'Cause there is no limit at all
There's only the road that you choose
And the choice you make to stay or to run
Push it over the limit
'Cause there is no limit at all
There's only the fight to survive
when you find yourself under the gun

You find your way below the burnin' lights
The stars above can never lead you wrong
(stay strong)
Like something evil coming out of the night
Keep coming back again
Until the battle is won
(it's already done)

With the wind on your face
You're makin' the rules
As the sirens wail
Through the streets, yeah
There's a light in your eyes
They can never take
And a ramblin' heart
That'll never break
With the thunder of an avalanche
You're going over the limit

Take it over the limit
'Cause there is no limit at all
There's only the road that you choose
And the choice you make to stay or to run
Push it over the limit
'Cause there is no limit at all
There's only the fight to survive
when you find yourself under the gun
