2. Die Dead Enough (4:18)
It's twilight and I wake up hot
My body’s soaked in a cold, cold sweat
I reenact the lurid scenes
And clawed engravings in my head
Oh, I can’t punch hard enough and I run
I can’t kick high enough and I run
I can’t shoot straight enough and I run
I can’t hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can’t stay down enough and I run
I can’t take pain enough and I run
I can’t bleed fast enough
I can’t die dead enough
The air is thick, but the oxygen’s thin
My heart is beating like a drum, boom!
And ice is flowing through my veins
Explosives on my lips and in my lungs
Oh, I can’t punch hard enough and I run
I can’t kick high enough and I run
I can’t shoot straight enough and I run
I can’t hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can’t stay down enough and I run
I can’t take pain enough and I run
I can’t bleed fast enough
I can’t die dead enough
I don’t know what I’m running from
And I don’t know where I’m running to
There’s something deep and strange inside of me I see
I don’t know what I’m running from
And I don’t know where I’m running to
Something’s compelling me to run into the dark!
And now I am more driven than before
And now I live just to settle score
And now I feel the nearness of your breath
Now I introduce you to your death
I am more driven than before
I live just to settle score
I feel the nearness of your breath
I introduce you to your death
I can’t punch hard enough
I can’t kick high enough
I can’t shoot straight enough
I can’t hold on enough...
I can’t stay down enough, die dead enough!
I can’t take pain enough, die dead enough!
I can’t bleed fast enough, die dead enough!
I can’t die dead enough, die dead enough!
My body’s soaked in a cold, cold sweat
I reenact the lurid scenes
And clawed engravings in my head
Oh, I can’t punch hard enough and I run
I can’t kick high enough and I run
I can’t shoot straight enough and I run
I can’t hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can’t stay down enough and I run
I can’t take pain enough and I run
I can’t bleed fast enough
I can’t die dead enough
The air is thick, but the oxygen’s thin
My heart is beating like a drum, boom!
And ice is flowing through my veins
Explosives on my lips and in my lungs
Oh, I can’t punch hard enough and I run
I can’t kick high enough and I run
I can’t shoot straight enough and I run
I can’t hold on enough and I run
Oh, I can’t stay down enough and I run
I can’t take pain enough and I run
I can’t bleed fast enough
I can’t die dead enough
I don’t know what I’m running from
And I don’t know where I’m running to
There’s something deep and strange inside of me I see
I don’t know what I’m running from
And I don’t know where I’m running to
Something’s compelling me to run into the dark!
And now I am more driven than before
And now I live just to settle score
And now I feel the nearness of your breath
Now I introduce you to your death
I am more driven than before
I live just to settle score
I feel the nearness of your breath
I introduce you to your death
I can’t punch hard enough
I can’t kick high enough
I can’t shoot straight enough
I can’t hold on enough...
I can’t stay down enough, die dead enough!
I can’t take pain enough, die dead enough!
I can’t bleed fast enough, die dead enough!
I can’t die dead enough, die dead enough!
