Lyrics
Your world is an ashtray We burn and coil like cigarettes The more you cry your ashes turn to mud
It's the nature of the leeches, The virgin's feeling cheated You've only spent a second of your life
My world is unaffected, there is an exit here I say it is and it's true There is a dream inside a dream I'm wide awake the more I sleep You'll understand when I'm dead
I went to god just to see And I was looking at me Saw heaven and hell were lies When I'm god everyone-
Dies-Scar, can you feel my power? Shoot here and the world gets smaller Scar,scar, can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller
Let's jump upon the sharp swords Cut away our smiles Without the threat of death There's no reason to live at all
My world is unaffected, there is an exit here I say it is and it's true, There is a dream inside a dream, I'm wide awake the more I sleep you'll understand when I'm dead
I went to god just to see And I was looking at me Saw heaven and hell were lies When I'm god everyone
Dies-Scar, can you feel my power? Shoot here and the world gets smaller Scar, scar,can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller Scar, scar,can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller
Shoot shoot, Shoot Motherfucker Shoot shoot, Shoot Motherfucker
"Each thing i show you is a piece of my death"
No salvation, no forgiveness(X9)
"This is beyond your experience"
No salvation, no forgiveness No salvation, no forgiveness
No salvation, no forgiveness ~Forgiveness~(x8)
No salvation, no forgiveness
I went to god just to see, and I was looking at me Saw heaven and hell were lies When I'm god everyone
Dies-Scar, can you feel my power? Shoot here and the world gets smaller Scar,scar, can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller Scar,scar, can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller Scar,scar, can you feel my power? One shot and the world gets smaller
Shoot, Shoot, Shoot Motherfucker(x5)
