Bat Out of Hell (Live from Ontario)

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 sky
Killer's on the bloodshot streets
Oh, 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
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
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlights shining through
Then like a sinner
Before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
Oh

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 rotting old hole
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 every other beat
I've 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 I 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
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
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlights 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 raw but my soul is ripe
No one's gonna stop me now
I'm gonna make my escape
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve
Until it's way too late

And I never see the sudden curve
Until it's way too late

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
Breaking out of my body
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

(I'll be gone when the morning comes)
Like a bat out of hell
(I'll be gone when the morning comes)
Like a bat out of hell
(I'll be gone when the morning comes)
Like a bat out of hell

London, Ontario
Thank you, thank you
Very, very much
Thank you
God bless ya'
We love you, and don't you
Ever stop loving
