Biting Elbows
For the Kill
[Verse 1]
My friends, my lovers and everyone I care for are dead
They said you'll die soon enough anyway
Shut up, I can't
Mainly because I never could
And how could I start now?
I drink water, perhaps contaminated by the split of the atom
Less than a war a good thousand feet away from me
And others of my kind
My mind is on its own tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
My blood, it shakes
And through my veins it travels to my head
They said you'll die soon enough anyway
Shut up, I can't
Mainly because I never could
And how could I start now?

[Chorus]
Honey, I'm down
Not that I need you
Look at me now
You've made a believer
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up some more
Why would I be, standing still
When you got blood that I need to spill?
Oh, yeah!
I'm looking for a thrill
I'm in for the kill

[Verse 2]
I ain't a killer, not by my own design
Vengeance is my business
And business is doin' fine
One and a half drinks making my mind think
There's a return
But I'm loving it out here
Overseeing their dreams burn (burn,burn)
[Pre-Chorus]
My blood, it shakes
And through my veins it travels to my head
They said you'll die soon enough anyway
Shut up, I can't
Mainly because I never could
And how could I start now?

[Chorus]
Honey, I'm down
Not that I need you
Look at me now
You've made a believer
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up some more
Why would I be, standing still
When you got blood that I need to spill?
Oh, yeah!
I'm looking for a thrill
I'm in for the kill
