lyrics

Tear down
Me right down
Display my shame in lights
Tie up
You tight up
You've no head for heights

Plagued lives
Poisoned lines
Pour out across your page
Sharp thoughts
Sharpened darts
Flung out across this stage

But what can you say - I can’t say myself?
Watch the cliche  - as it flies off the shelf
When you try to kill me - you only kill yourself

Worlds will explode - should I hold my breath?
Words will corrode - it's fight to the death
If you try to kill me - you only kill yourself

Hit out
Help me out
A scream to scramble fear
Slap back
Watch your back
The endgame is near

Hidden jibes
Misspent lies
A life’s worth of gall
Hurt mail
Hate can’t fail
Can we defy them all?




But what can you say - I can’t say myself?
Watch the cliche  - as it flies off the shelf
When you try to kill me - you only kill yourself

Worlds will explode - should I hold my breath?
Words will corrode - it's fight to the death
If you try to kill me - you only kill yourself


I’m craving explosions
Waiting for the blast
I know that what you say
Is something that won’t last
I’m waiting
Just waiting
I know that this won’t last

But what can you say - I can’t say myself?
Watch the cliche  - as it flies off the shelf
When you try to kill me - you only kill yourself

Worlds will explode - should I hold my breath?
Words will corrode - it's fight to the death
If you try to kill me - you only kill yourself
You only kill yourself
