Vive La Mort 03:45
Give the boy an inch, watch him run a mile A bitter mistake, will be sweet in a while Don't be afraid I've been waiting for so long Feeling terrible, criminal oh It's heaven and hell and everything in between, I could go insane. But I take what I want. My eyes on you, hold steady, aim (You're gonna get it) One more before you're going to fall Got my sights on you, now ready, aim (You're gonna get it) Not going back to where you were before Tonight we come alive, hold on tight, look at this fucking mess, Look at the look in your eyes Such a pretty face And I want to destroy, oh Wait until I say, give me more, C'est la crème de la crème avant de la petite mort Only a little death. Just take it and go home Give the boy an inch, watch him run a mile It's heaven and hell and everything in between, I could go insane. Go! Feeling paralysed, but you're traumatised, it won't be long Before I'm going inside. It's a burning flame. Ready, aim, fire!

Put down the photograph And have one more for the night Raise the cup to you and drink if memory serves me right I'll smoke this cigarette, before I chase you down. But not alone. Now there's no mistake, that face I've left behind now Without a reason or a trace. I'm coming for you now. Is this a memory, or a dream I've had? I'm going home alone. I'm going home. Somewhere the same clouds hang over you tonight. I think sometimes even the stars need a place to hide. These promises we made, became mistakes somehow. I'm going home alone. I'm going home. Put down the photograph And have one more for the night Raise my hands to you and drink because it serves you right If you want to go, I will take you I care

Swallow, drink it down And wash it away Give a smile while The pain of the world's on your face Tuck your teeth in, open mouthed for the people Don't forget to bite down Dissect. No regrets then. One .357 aimed this time the Odds going your way Open the gates to hell when We can't expect to win Fucking over But you won't save me this time. So what are you going to do with this? It won't save you. This time. So what are we going to do? You're free to go when you want No one can leave You say that you don't, even I don't understand me Anoint the children, hold still, nurse them to sleep. Watch them froth at the mouth now. Get back, stand back, don't do this Please leave the room if this will affect you The story of the decade We can't expect to win Fucking over But you won't save me this time. So what are you going to do with this? It won't save you. This time. So where are we going to? You can't back down now You got it wrong You can't back out now Oh no Good day to be alive Good day to die You can't back out now Oh no Drink it down, and you swallow that smile with it...

One night will not go through Fade into somewhere new No more of what we're bound I searched with nothing found I watched the world turn blue Pray for something new Hold on, the light will find Until the light went blind Know that all your cries we heard What you are now, we were Hang on, tomorrow see What we are now, you'll be Where do we go? This soul couldn't stay. We'll carry on. But when will it end?
