You're sweating, You're dreading, You're living the truth
You're bucket of sanity leaks from abuse
The sweat it drips and all of you starts to doubt
How it could be that in the end you amount to nothing
They say that everything good must come to an end
You're not ready yet, you don't wanna pretend
For anything more than what you need
Fight until the end and all that is seen is nothing
No more morals to compromise
The only one left is your pal .45
And he shows no compassion, no remorse
Quickly he'll take you to somewhere much worse
Somewhere much worse than life
(Can't keep up)
With the path that I'm following
(Can't keep up)
My head which is sinking
(Can't keep up)
This cold war anymore
Listen to me
Cause I have the power now to supersede
Your eyes which are rooted in reality
No sympathy, I understand
But pulling this trigger doesn't make you a man
Lending a hand to a man who has three gives him nothing more than an apology
And that cocky bastard will try to preach to you
That he who has more needs no help from the few
Needs no help from the few
(Can't keep up)
With the path that I'm following
(Can't keep up)
My head which is sinking
(Can't keep up)
This cold war anymore
Cause it's easy, it's easy they all like to say
It's easy, It's easy just give it another day
It's easy, It's easy they all like to say
It's easy, It's easy just give it another day
But enough's enough when the clock says it's up
And thinking about the future has just lost it's touch
And when I'm lying alone I'll ask myself why there was never a moment to
Stop
(Haunting Horn Solos)
