Fired the first shot But it won't be the last I'm full speed ahead You're running out of gas Desperately trying to reason the words But sometimes the truth hurts Accept the fact life has passed you by You succumbed to the pressures While I'm 'never say die' Your fucking explanations I refuse it It's just excuses! End of the line You're out of time We all have our cross to bear And our axe to grind The slit-guts apparitions Will haunt your dreams You know that ghost is me The slit-guts apparitions Will haunt your dreams You know that ghost is me Who the fuck are you to decide How we choose to live our lives? It's crystal clear There are two sides! Brinksmanship is a dangerous game And this substance burns Like acid rain Siege through the border That's what it takes Open the flood gates! The slit-guts apparitions Will haunt your dreams You know that ghost is me The slit-guts apparitions Will haunt your dreams You know that ghost is me Mind is numb Body goes weak And blood drips from my mouth when I speak You see the scars Endless sea of red Reckless with the words, yeah I'll say Mercy! Scream at the top of your lungs Payback! For the harm you've done They say 'jealousy is crueler than the grave' And a substance burns like acid rain! It burns like acid rain! It burns like acid rain!
