První CD začali...
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
It was the last thing on my mind
Well could it be, could it be,
At the wrong place, the right time?
Bittersweet surrender
I let the face of concrete meet with mine
Way to kick me when I'm the ground
Way to kick me when I'm already down
When you thought I'd turn around
I turned the other cheek
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
You made my peaceful bubble burst
Well you don't just leave me
Destroy me first
Bittersweet surrender
I let you mark the spot
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
We're falling to pieces
One by one you're going down
We pick up the pieces
Or leave them scattered on the ground
This will be your final chance
To fight for what we've got
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
Give me all that you've got
Hit me til I'm down and out
I'm black and blue
Now for the love of God
Hit me with your best shot
