Dead Lyrics by Nine Shrines

Retribution Theory

0

It's a bitter pill to swallow when it’s shaped just like a knife
The trail kicking up when I'm in four wheel drive
Pedal to the metal and I'm leaving you in the smoke
Go, Go ,Go, Go
Pedal to the metal, your the devil and I’m ready to go
Go, Go ,Go, Go
Don't come crawling back to me this time
You're not the reason I'm alive

Break away
Break away
Everyday
Cuz I know it's all for nothing
When you have to blame
Dead on the inside
Never change
Never change
Feel the pain
You're the demon on my shoulder
Begging me to stay
Dead on the inside
Dead on the inside

I can't look back, the road is winding
I'm driving of the edge
Fighting for my life, it’s no choice
Danger zone

Pedal to the metal and I’m leaving you in the smoke
Go, Go ,Go, Go
Pedal to the metal, your the devil and I'm ready to go
Go, Go ,Go, Go
Don’t come crawling back to me this time
Now I've got you paralyzed

Break away
Break away
Everyday
Cuz I know it's all for nothing
When you have to blame
Dead on the inside
Never change
Never change
Feel the pain
You're the demon on my shoulder
Begging me to stay
Dead on the inside
Dead on the inside

In the end, I hope your satisfied
When I defy with a drive-by
Know that I’m breaking the addiction
This time I turn the key
Ignition
Dead on the inside

(Solo)

Break away
Break away
Everyday
Cuz I know it's all for nothing
When you have to blame
Dead on the inside
Never change
Never change
Feel the pain
You're the demon on my shoulder
Begging me to stay
Dead on the inside
Dead on the inside
Dead on the inside
Dead on the inside
