Defend/Avenge Lyrics by Anthrax

For All Kings

2016

[Verse 1]
Waking on a bed of nails
Dying winds through shredded sails
Can you hear me when I shout
And nobody knows what I'm talking about

[Pre-Chorus]
What can I do?
I'm trying to figure it out
Right here right now
Teaching me how

[Chorus]
Kill all the ends, it's your cold black revenge
Mark my words
Defend avenge
Break 'til it bends, it's a means to an end
Defend avenge
You're all gonna get what you fuckin' deserve

[Post-Chorus]
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge

[Verse 2]
Your indifference abounds
Everywhere fence-sitting clowns
Harvesting the seeds of doubt
And nobody knows what I'm talking about

[Pre-Chorus]
What can I do?
I'm trying to figure it out
Right here right now
Teaching me how

[Chorus]
Kill all the ends, it's your cold black revenge
Mark my words
Defend avenge
Break 'til it bends, it's a means to an end
Defend avenge
You're all gonna get what you fuckin' deserve

[Post-Chorus]
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge

[Pre-Chorus]
What can I do?
I'm trying to figure it out
Right here right now
Teaching me how

[Chorus]
Kill all the ends, it's your cold black revenge
Mark my words
Defend avenge
Break 'til it bends, it's a means to an end
Defend avenge
You're all gonna get what you fuckin' deserve

[Post-Chorus]
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
Defend avenge
