Tough times demand, tough talk demand
Tough hearts demand tough songs
Tough times demand, tough talk demand
Tough hearts demand, tough songs demand

We can rise and fall like empires
Flow in and out like the tide
Be vain and smart, humble and dumb
We can hit and miss like pride, just like pride

We can circle around like hurricanes
Dance and dream like lovers
Attack the day like birds of prey
scavengers under cover, under cover

Look in to the eye of the storm
Look out for the force without form
Look around, sight and sound
Look in, look out, look around

Tough times demand, tough talk demand
Tough hearts demand, tough songs demand

We can move with savage grace
To rhythms of the night
Cool and remote like dancing girls
In my heat of the beat and the lights, and the lights

We can wear the rose of romance
An air of joie de vivre
To tender hearts upon our sleeves
Skin as thick as thieves, thick as thieves

Look in to the eye of the storm
Look out for the force without form
Look around at the sight and sound
Look in, look out, look around
(Rising falling at force ten
We twist the world and ride the wind)

Tough times demand, tough talk demand
Tough hearts demand, tough songs demand

Look in to the eye of the storm
Look out for the force without form
Look around at the sight and sound

Look in with the storm in the eye
Look out for the sea and the sky
Look around at the sight and sound
Look in, look out, look around

Tough times demand, tough hearts
Tough times demand, tough talk
