Old Battery Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Old friend in your room
With your ticker, feeling thicker
You get sicker, but
[Chorus]
DieHard, DieHard
DieHard, DieHard
[Verse 2]
Old friend in this world
With your crucifix, you think it's fixed
And yet you
[Chorus]
DieHard, DieHard
DieHard, DieHard
[Bridge]
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
To heal you, we have love
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
