    I love this song: Mike Tramp - More To Life Than This
    But there's no lyrics on the whole net
    Could someone try to write them down? This would be great!

    Tried my best, but some parts i just couldn't get, i'll mark them with *

    Mike Tramp - More to life than this

    Jonas Cardigan(?) in the corner of the other world
    another angry young man
    waiting to explode.
    He didn't choose this life,
    but it's what he got.
    on the edge of the knife
    he didn't find much love.

    Now I stand in the doorway
    looking downhill,
    nothing to see, no one to tell
    didn't believe in,
    they said they would pay
    so many young lives wasted away.

    Chorus:
    -
    But there's gotta be more to life than this
    so good reason why we exist
    a better way to tell us
    why we live and die

    There's gotta be chances for everyone
    freedom for all our ***** son
    a better way to show us,
    why we live or die
    -

    Charlie's got a farm
    that his father built
    but he ain't growing much
    but a stack of bills.
    It didn't rain for years
    and all his caddle died
    but banks don't care for tears
    or how hard you try

    You either die long before you live(?)
    the future wasted on the end of a head(?)
    He took down a shotgun
    straight on his head.
    Young trolly(?) farmer laid dead on the field

    Chorus

    Billie was a rock 'n roll star
    but it was so long ago
    Everyone knew his guitar
    when they heard him on the radio
    He had a million dollar mansion
    up in the Hollywood hills
    He used to throw the best ** parties
    where hookers sack a hog on pills (?)
    but **** *** *** got better
    and his ferrari re-possessed
    *** *** of the mansion
    so he went back to ex-girlfriend's bed

    MTV didn't want him,
    they said that rock 'n roll is dead
    no one took his phone calls
    they had all forgotten his name

    Somewhere in Texas the story ends
    Billie's broke and without any friends
    fame and fortune, it's way over now
    this girl of *** ** was his final ***

    Chorus x2

    Ronya! Thank you very much!!! I have my version written down on this song but it needs lots of corrections and fill ups. This version of yours contains so many interesting suggestions, lots of them are closer to the original
    If you are interested here's my version (problem spots are in brakets):
    Johnny’s got a gun
    And it's (pointed) at another world
    Another angry young man
    Waiting to explode
    He didn't choose this life
    But it's what he got
    On the edge of the knife
    He didn't find much love
    Now (he’s sitting at the doorway) and (looking) down hill
    Nothing to say no one to tell
    He didn't (believe and he said they would pay)
    So many young lives wasted away

    But (there's) gotta be more to life than this
    So called reason why we exist
    Better way to tell us why we live and die
    It's gotta be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us why we live or die

    (Joely)'s got a farm
    That his father built
    But it ain't growing much
    But a stack of bills
    It didn't rain for years
    And all his cattle died
    (But) banks don't care for tears
    Or how hard you try
    You (are now dying) before you live
    The future (wasted the end of our head)
    He took (down a) shotgun straight on his head
    Young (Joely) farmer (lay) dead on his bed

    But (there's) gotta be more to life than this
    So called reason why we exist
    Better way to tell us why we live and die
    It's gotta be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us why we live or die

    Billy was a rock n' roll star
    But it was so long ago
    Everyone knew his guitar
    When they heard it on the radio
    He had a million dollar mansion
    Up in the Hollywood hills
    Used to throw a best (damn) parties
    Where('d) hookers sack a (. . .) pills
    But then his long hair got (bitter)
    And his Ferrari repossessed
    IRS took the mansion
    So he went back to (. . .) girl for (spit)
    MTV didn't want him
    They said that rock n' roll is dead
    No one took his phone calls
    They (at all) forgotten his name
    Somewhere in Texas his story ends
    Billy's broken without any friends
    Fame and fortune
    (To) where are they now
    His (girlie's) call was his final vow

    But (there's) gotta be more to life than this
    So called reason why we exist
    A better way to tell us why we live and die
    (It's) gotta be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us why we live or die
    (It's) gotta be more to life than this
    So called reason why we exist
    A better way to tell us why we live and die
    It's gotta be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us why we live or die

    I found the original lyrics!!!
    for those who interested:

    Johnnie’s got a gun
    And it's pointed at the world
    Another angry young man
    Waiting to explode
    He didn't choose this life
    But it's what he got
    On the edge of a knife
    He didn't find much love
    Now he sits in the doorway looking down hell
    Nothing to say no one to tell
    They didn't believe him he said they would pay
    So many young lives wasted away

    But there's got to be more to life than this
    A so called reason why we exist
    A better way to tell us
    Why we live and die
    It's got to be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us
    Why we live or die

    Charlie's got a farm
    That his father built
    But he ain't growing much
    But a stack of bills
    It didn't rain for years
    And all his cattle died
    But banks don't care for tears
    Or how hard you tried
    You end up dying before you have lived
    The future wasted the end up ahead
    He took down his shotgun straight to his head
    Young Charlie farmer lay dead on his bed

    But there's got to be more to life than this
    So called reason why we exist
    Better way to tell us why we live and die
    It's gotta be justice for everyone
    Freedom for all under the Sun
    A better way to show us why we live or die

    But it was so long ago
    Everyone knew his guitar
    When they heard it on the radio
    He had a million dollar mansion
    Up in the Hollywood hills
    Used to throw the best damn parties
    With hookers, alcohol and pills
    But then his long hair got thinner
    And his Ferrari repossessed
    IRS took the mansion
    So he went back to his ex-girlfriend’s bed
    MTV didn't want him
    They said that rock n' roll is dead
    No one took his phone calls
    They had all forgotten his name
    Somewhere in Texas the story ends
    Billy's broken without any friends
    From fame and fortune to where are they now
    This curtain call was his final bow
