lyrics
Do you feel the charge?
It sizzles and sparks
It feels like the air is electric
But just as soon as it's massed
The movement has passed
Momentum evaporated
The ground feels to steep
And it crumbles beneath
We're crawling upon one another
No objective in sight
No fuse to ignite
Just keeping our heads above water
And to the victor goes the spoils
The oldest story ever told
I feel my blood begin to boil
With no direction now to go
Go, go, go!
They lie in wait like serpents coiled
To prey upon the down and out
As my blood begins to boil
It fills my lungs until I drown
Watch the pot, and pray that it doesn't boil over
With measured steps appease, abate
As time goes by, I'm sure that your hands will grow slower
You'll hear the fists pounding at the gate
It sizzles and sparks
It feels like the air is electric
But just as soon as it's massed
The movement has passed
Momentum evaporated
The ground feels to steep
And it crumbles beneath
We're crawling upon one another
No objective in sight
No fuse to ignite
Just keeping our heads above water
And to the victor goes the spoils
The oldest story ever told
I feel my blood begin to boil
With no direction now to go
Go, go, go!
They lie in wait like serpents coiled
To prey upon the down and out
As my blood begins to boil
It fills my lungs until I drown
Watch the pot, and pray that it doesn't boil over
With measured steps appease, abate
As time goes by, I'm sure that your hands will grow slower
You'll hear the fists pounding at the gate
