Die on Time
Unveiling Shadows: Young Guns' Poignant Journey Through Despair
Lyrics
I slip away
I escape unnoticed
Like a thief I'm on the run
Similar to a thief evading capture
'Cause I cracked the safe
Because I successfully breached security
Sold the priceless parts for fun
Sold valuable components for amusement
I'll save
I will preserve
Smoke and mirrors babe
Using deceptive tactics, my dear
For the ones they work on
For those they manipulate
It's far too late for me
It's too late for my redemption
Show a little soul and they'll want more
Display some sincerity, and they'll demand more
These days a pound of flesh don't get you far
In contemporary times, sacrifices are insufficient
I watch you smoke your cigarettes
I observe you indulge in smoking
Drink your liquor lets
Consume your alcohol, let's
Race to the bottom
Compete in a downward spiral
Die on time
Perish punctually
Is this everything you asked for?
Is this the outcome you desired?
I bend and break
I yield and shatter
For your pleasure I'm undone
For your gratification, I'm ruined
Kept tapping the vein
Continuously injecting substances
Now I'm drowning in the floor
Now submerged in despair
But stay
But stay with me
Be my tourniquet
Be my remedy
We can share the hurt 'cause
We can collectively endure the pain because
It's to far great for me
It's excessively overwhelming for me alone
Show a little soul and they'll want more
Express some genuine emotions, and they'll crave more
These days a pound of flesh don't get you far
In contemporary times, a significant sacrifice yields little
I watch you smoke your cigarettes
I witness your habits of smoking
Drink your liquor lets
Consume your alcohol, let's
Race to the bottom
Engage in a downward race
Die on time
Perish punctually
Is this everything you asked for?
Is this the outcome you desired?
Show a little soul and they'll want more
Express some genuine emotions, and they'll crave more
These days a pound of flesh don't get you far
In contemporary times, a significant sacrifice yields little
I watch you smoke your cigarettes
I witness your habits of smoking
Drink your liquor lets
Consume your alcohol, let's
Race to the bottom
Engage in a downward race
Die on time
Is this the outcome you desired?
