Biography

German heavy metal band from the town of Solingen, originally assembled in the early 1970s by vocalist [a=Udo Dirkschneider]. Their beginnings can be traced back to the late 1960s, when the band got its start under the name Band X. Accept's lineup has changed over the years, which has included different singers, guitarists, bassists and drummers. Accept have broken up and reformed multiple times. They first split up in 1989, several months after the release of Eat the Heat (which was their only album with Dirkschneider's initial replacement David Reece), but reformed in 1992 and released three more albums before disbanding again in 1997. After briefly reuniting in 2005, Accept announced their third reunion in 2009, with former T.T. Quick frontman Mark Tornillo replacing Dirkschneider.

LYRICS

Get up... Get the hell on outta here
Cut the ropes that bind you
Stand up... straight into your fear
Leave the past behind you
Your cautious ways...have spawned your nothing

Life...is just an empty stage
Where do you go from here
Living...puts the words upon the page
Open to a new frontier

Your mundane life... is history
You'll seize the day... it's mystery

[Chorus:]
Cut the ripcord... don't look back
Burn the bridges down
Grab the handle... clench your fist
Beat the bastards down

Fire... There's fire in your heart
Flames of passion burn
Higher... raging from the start
And now there's no return

Go have your way... your fantasy
Embrace the day... it's destiny

[Chorus:]
Cut the ripcord...don't look back
Burn the bridges down
Grab the handle...clench your fist
Beat the bastards down
Cut the ripcord, no turning back
Bum the bridges down
Grab the handle... Crack the whip
Beat the bastards down beat em' down

[Solo]

[Chorus:]
Cut the ripcord... don't look back
Burn the bridges down
Grab the handle... clench your fist
Beat the bastards down
Cut the ripcord, no turning back
Burn the bridges down
Grab the handle... Crack the whip
Beat the bastards down
Beat em' down
