Píseň: Killing for a Living

Interpret:
Overkill
Album:
Ironbound
A sense of peace was falling on the universal night 
And it gave me a pause to reason why I live 
To never cease the calling of the consequential right 
And it gave me cause and reason why they give 
The first thing I remember was teh shadow 'cross my heart 
And they matched the beauty hidden in their soul 


The next was 'cross the universe, as it came apart 
And the sum of the parts became whole 


Stalking & hunting, profession in blood 
Working the night to a throne 
Chalking an outline, experience must 
Invisible, never alone 


I can take you anywhere 
Take all that you give 
I can free you from despair 
Killing just to live 


Live to kill 
Kill to live 
Killing for a living, killing just to live 


I looked across the answers, though questions didn't exist 
And found that I was never alone 
We cut away the cancer and continued to resist 
But the outcome of the night remained unknown 
The next thing I rememer were the years across my face 
And they matched only the beauty of scars 
The next was 'cross the universe into time and space 
And to know together, we'd have to go too far 


Bleeding a nation, casualty time 
Breaking the back of the core 
Promised salvation, a casual crime 
Feeding and fucking the whore 
Make my living on borrowed time 
I make the clock stand still 
Keep my hands 'round what is mine 
Living just to kill 
Llive to kill 
Kill to live 


C'mon now kill a little kindness, give the worst of your best 
C'mon now and shake a little madness, put the dead to rest 
I can give you reasons, 2-5 to the bone 
They can give you all you ever wanted 
When you're far away from home 
C'mon now kill a little kindness, give the worst of your best 
C'mon now and shake a little madness, put the dead to rest 


So as the plot will thicken and time is not a friend 
The blessing comes but one in a life 
Across the crowded universe that hastens to an end 
Through memories of one time in a night 
And what will I remember through the by & by 
To have and hold and turn about the chill 
That this was not the pause to die 
But to live to kill
