Kill Again

from Lazarus by Trash Bats

/

lyrics

Twenty odd years of making mistakes
I dragged the body through the woods and sat down next to the lake
There was cool breeze blowing and from the mountain peaks and a shiver cut through me when the lord speaks
With the eyes all around me all hunting for my sins
I sneak into the dark never seen again
But a cold exiled death on this backwoods trail can't keep the wrath of man off my tail
I'll hide amongst the bones of the meek and feeble waiting for final judgment oh that righteous upheaval
When I'm meant to answer to a higher force and beg for mercy in front of the lord
I got a hunger that ain’t mine and its crippled me inside
I'm so hungry for the flesh amongst the trees I hide
When the trumpet sounds off and heavens burst to fire
The devil reaching for me cause of what’s deep inside

I can't contain my anger my rage or my animal instincts driving me to kill again
If I’m not caught driven down or buried now I’ll kill again
I'll kill again

I was born a monster in a world of violent beasts
My blatant cruel desires didn't make me feel unique
I see you try to hide the hate behind your eyes
But I never felt the need to lie until I realized
Its hypocrisy in full when we're caging up our devils even when we all want to do what's considered evil
We're twisted and distorted and love shedding blood
As a whole we'd rather kill when love is what we should
I'm marking up the trees with the sign I bear
Its brotherhood forever even if no one's here
A sheep you see is hiding from the moon but a ghost like me doesn't fear wolf tunes
A howling on the hills and the beating of wings
There’s a devil in the forest and it looks like me
Don't give in to sin unless you willing to hide because those who shine brightest are destined to die

I can't contain my anger my rage or my animal instincts driving me to kill again
If I’m not caught driven down or buried now I’ll kill again
I'll kill again

Everyone together we are doing things wrong
If my ghoulish haunted followers just play along
When the final days are shining just out over the hills
We can take all those we love with us enjoy the thrills
The judgment day is lurking just on the edge
There’s a second violent coming is your soul prepared
I've been playing and saving since I first learned to talk
I'm the corpse you wanna see strung up on that cross

I can't contain my anger my rage or my animal instincts driving me to kill again
If I’m not caught driven down or buried now I’ll kill again
I'll kill again
