Track: Shoot Me Again

Lyrics
I won't go away
Right, right here, I stay

Stand silent in flames
Stand tall 'til it fades

Shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Come on, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
I said, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Come on, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet

Come on, shoot me again
Shoot me again, shoot me
Shoot me again, shoot me again
Come on, shoot me again
Shoot me again, shoot me
Shoot me again, shoot me again, come on

All the shots I take
I spit back at you
All the shit you fake
Comes back to haunt you

All the shots
All the shots

All the shots I take
What difference did I make?
All the shots I take
I spit back at you

I won't go away (with a bullet in my back)
Right, right here, I stay (with a bullet in my back)

Shoot me, shoot me
Shoot me, shoot me

I stand on my own (with a bullet in my back)
I'm stranded and sold (with a bullet in my back)

Shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Go on, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Yeah, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Come on, shoot me again, I ain't dead yet

I said, shoot me again, shoot me again
Come on, shoot me again, shoot me again
Come on, shoot me again, shoot me again
Shoot me, shoot me again, shoot me again, yeah

All the shots I take
I spit back at you
All the shit you fake
Comes back to haunt you

All the shots
All the shots

All the shots I take
What difference did I make? (What difference did I make?)
All the shots I take
I spit back at you

Bite my tongue
Trying not to shoot back
No compromise
My heart won't pump the other way

Wake the sleeping giant
Wake the beast
Wake the sleeping dog
Don't let him sleep
Wake the sleeping giant
Wake the beast
Wake the sleeping dog
Don't let him sleep

Bite my tongue
Trying not to shoot back

All the shots I take
I spit back at you
All the shit you fake
Comes back to haunt you

All the shots
All the shots

All the shots I take
Hey, what difference did I make? (What difference did I make?)
Yeah, all the shots I take
I spit back at you
