everybody knows
I've grown sick
remember those walls I built
doodily ding-dong, tick-tock
outside my home, I'm lookin' hard
guess who's back, back again?
I'm a killer, cold and wrathful
one shot, two shots, three shots, four shots
turn away
I watch how the moon sits in the sky
I live a life filled with chicken and malt-liquor
forgotten faces,
waking in a sweat again
I'm comin' down from the mountain
sticks and stones might break my bones
I know what you're thinking
conversion, software version 7.0
the phoenix he helped create
it's time to lay claim to the evidence
sweat, sweat, 'cause I'm a poisonous pill
and the little boy stared
dead man lying on the bottom of the grave
a note by the door
read the warning signs
come lay it down
[this has been said so many times that
I'm not sure if it matters]
a lonely road
arms are raised above the sky
as I fall deeper into a manic state
yo, same song and dance
darkness coats us

this in itself should give you an idea of how eclectic my music taste is.
lines twenty-seven and twenty-eight are from the same song, but I put them into two separate lines to make it look better aesthetically. but that's why they're in brackets.
