"You're Gonna Have To Kill Me" lyrics

"You're Gonna Have To Kill Me"

Stay down, you're beat
You're gonna have to kill me
Stay down, you're beat
You're gonna have to kill me
Stay down, you're beat
You're gonna have to kill me
Stay down...
I won't stay down til I'm dead
Stay down, you're beat
You're gonna have to kill me
You're gonna have to kill me
Cuz we won't stay down til we're dead
Well, lookie what we got here

All the kiddies wanna be an original
A rebel, an outlaw, or even a criminal
I've never been allowed to be anything but
A twice kicked mutt
Scatchin' at a door that's been shut all my life
I wasted years
Now the years have wasted me
I choked on my pride
And I spit out my broken teeth
Too old to die young
And too late to die cool
The wine's turned to acid
But we won't stay down til we're dead

Hey punk
You still trying to be hard?
Shut the fuck up
Hey punk
You still trying to be dark?
Shut the fuck up
You think you know about death?
Shut the fuck up
The shit I've done and seen would shut you the fuck up

The truth is we speak for the weak
For those that were broken and those that were beat
And if I die today all I can say is that I've lived life free
But don't you dare follow me

Hey kid
You don't have to be strong
You don't have to hard
You don't have to be nothing
I know that you have been scarred
I know you've felt so weak
I know you've lived in fear
I know you've cried with shame
Well, brother, I have been there

Friends are great but they cannot save you
(Though they will try)
Drugs kill the pain but they cannot heal you
I know that hope is a bitch and she betrayed you
All I can tell you, kid, is
I've... been... there... before...
Too many times
So let's go...

I've been there before, brothers and sisters
Believe it
Let's go!...
Lord have mercy

Too many years I was living to die
Walking among the dead
Next to the otherside
We walked the line
And they say you've gotta fall to rise
Boy, I fell so far I flew above the sky

I crossed the line
I was living to die for so long
Ready to die
But maybe now I can carry on
And they say you've gotta fall to rise
Boy, I fell so far I almost crossed that line
Boy, I fell so far I flew above the sky
