Lyrics

The Kill (Pennine Studio Sessions)

[Verse 1] Life can be skewed - good things are nice Counting on you - really no threats The waiting is through - deciphering the scars Just who fooled who - sit still in their cars [Chorus] It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill [Verse 2] I can smell through you - your talking's a lie They turn on to you, before they say "die" Wrapped in your trunk - to reach out the safe case So I can detect - the longer it's taking [Chorus] It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill [Verse 3] Dangerous cues - set by distraction Deprived of all use, nor in satisfaction Total destruction - the worst ever met Kept in apartment - sublimely for you [Verse 4] Who's got the front stage, to keep you in rocks? Who's got the vision, that puts in the locks? Loss of all resource - forced into your head Just that it was - whacked into the air [Chorus] It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill It's another, 'nother, 'nother, 'nother kill
