Lyrics

Vicious

[Verse 1]

Live with your back to the wall

The bigger they come, the harder they fall

Live with a heart made of stone

Slings and arrows and broken bones

[Pre-Chorus]

One by one by one by one

Kings rise and fall

One by one by one by one

Heavy lies this crown of bones

[Chorus]

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

[Verse 2]

Live with the eyes of the beast

Never the prey, the weak, or the sheep

Live with the strength to believe

Dead to the world, but we'll haunt their dreams

[Pre-Chorus]

One by one by one by one

Kings rise and fall

One by one by one by one

Heavy lies this crown of bones

Yeah

[Chorus]

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

[Breakdown]

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it, burn it all, burn it all to ash

Burn it all to ashes

[Chorus]

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home

Yeah, darkness behold

Yeah, this hell we call home
