Killing is a hard thing
For one to do
I got enough to do
Killing is a heart throb
Foraging the truth
Couldn't be a rash thing
You gotta think it through
Taking time away
So far removed
Couldn't be a rash thing
Cause it's everlasting
Maybe you could choose to live instead
Keep it in the future til we're dead
Turning every head under the sun
Stopped in our tracks
We turn our backs
[Can't seem to kick this habit away]
Living in the city
You gotta keep your head
One step ahead
-
Living here without you
We could've been the cure
And made the world secure
-
Could've been the heroes
We didn't think it through
Could've hit the big time
But this time we lose
Can I still be the hero?
Maybe you could choose to live instead
Keep it in the future til we're dead
Turning every head under the sun
Stopped in our tracks
We turn our backs
[Can't seem to kick this habit away]
Go on get me if you please
I'll do my best not to make a mess
For a swift escape and a shiny slate
