lyrics

Here we are.
Once again, the thrill is gone.
Wondering when he'll depart.
Maybe there's a different plan
Still, he stands...

I was born dead in a morgue. Drenched in my own vital fluid
Asking, "Mother, why'd you do it?" The price I'm due to pay is torment...
I'd rather forfeit before conforming to these long nights,
of spewin' my rage, spite and doom.
Gettin' hit by the short-end of the stick all of the time.
Beauty's lost in the eye when it's dark and you're blind...
It often can bind to you like a cobra. No one can tarnish or pry it off.
Is it my fault? Is it mine?
I must've been designed to want to depart from this life...
I need to form a plan to rip apart what has tied me here;
find the nearest exit before the movie's done.
Then, rev the engine up and dip;
find another cinema to pick. It's got me quite sinister.
the wick's been lit since I was kicking in the womb,
fighting not to make me enter this abyss...

Fight Fire with Magick,
Though, they burn witches.
They burn witches.
The hour is ripe. It's perfect.
Not enough minutes on the clock to be nervous.
Burn bridges.
You want to reach me? You gotta' walk through the Fire.
Better learn...
Isn't it so funny?
Isn't it so funny?

Karma's getting close.
The Dawn will be Gold. (x2)

Devil's Advocate. I guess I'll have to get my facts in line.
Battlin' savages. Settle traction with a fractured spine.
Adamant towards the wars I'm dragged in, to detract the Swine.
Piggybacking'll end tragic, 'cause I don't hesitate.
This Rebel revels in death and hate.
Penetrating spaces that you'd never think to step.
Elated is how I feel when they test their fate, and then excavate.
Slipped back in my Nemesis-state. It is my Genesis...
Sega couldn't mess with him. Great. Impregnable stakes at hand...
Couldn't make the cut with the deadliest stainless steel blades.
And that's real.
And I stand upon this Word.
Hands up like it's Ferguson. My weapon might just burst.
And anyone close is getting hit.
Non-discriminant when it comes to raising positionin'.

Now, I see..
why they have it out for me.
They know just what I've got in me.
Knowing what.
But, you can't do nothing now.
Catch me if you can. (x2)

The power's in the shadows,
where insanity and chaos enshrouds me in its black smoke.
Inhale for the first time and refuse to choke;
consuming no less than is given and presume to soak...
in all the glory before me and renew my oath.
to refrain from losing this part of who I know,
myself to be. I won't die helplessly, but quite SELFishly.
Yeah. I see the hidden complexities in mundanity.
No wonder they don't want to play with me.
They'd rather play-for-keeps; but I said from the beginning...
I'll die a million times and resurrect just like I'm Kenny.
Not kidding. I've got plenty of life in me.
The Horned-Angel's getting violent,
'cause triumph is seeping in the airwaves today.
and there's no fair way to play...

Fight Fire with Magick,
Though, they burn witches.
They burn witches.
The hour is ripe. It's perfect.
Not enough minutes on the clock to be nervous.
Burn bridges.
You want to reach me? You gotta' walk through the Fire.
Better learn...
Isn't it so funny?
Isn't it so funny?

Karma's getting close.
The Dawn will be Gold. (x2)
