lyrics

Red dead dead in my sights again
I’m thinking clearly then
Let me take, let me take
One more time to feel again
Got it straight, got it straight
Gonna say it all again ‘cause I’m right
Burning up and I won’t go away

One more time can you expect to give it all but to take less?
Can you feel the beaten path of crimes untouched, a blackened past
See the light for what it’s worth
A second chance we don't deserve
I won't heal these wounds tonight
Fire away and go

Lie with every breath you take, but we can see
Cold, hard and in your hands, belong to me
And we won’t go away

So try to walk away
If you can feel it now
Try and see it now
And I can feel it now
And every little thing we take is ours

Rinse, rinse, rinse
Change my faith again
I question now and then
Everything, everything
One more lie to hear again
Had all I’ll take, all I’ll take
Gonna say it all again ‘cause I’m right
Burning up and I won’t go away

Mine now!
With every breathe we take we take
