They live on fear, they live on fear, they live on fear
They live on fear, they live on fear, they live on fear
They live on fear, they live on fear, they live on fear
They live on fear...
You got that last slaughter on tape, you play it on the radio
Magnified fear
Stares back the mirror
Reflect depravity
The shadow cast a feeling
Of ill harmony
So crisp, the famines itch
A withering shoreline, tears of grey
Interspersed with withered fruit
Her gloomy banquet of cheer
Heaven, heaven, oh what a sweet plain
Douse the ecstasy, the imagination drained away
Perpetual reverie abruptly fade
Heaven's soothing, some say
Tremulous hand jabs from behind
Sticks in the back for all to see
Organs spilled, leak of will
Void of secrecy
They live on fear, they live on fear
They live on fear, they live on fear
They live on fear, they live on fear
Genuine tears
Delights the taste
Pain salts the bitter brew
Rich in guilt
To absorb the filth
She worships a point of view
Scarce the thousand remnants
Black charred flesh
A victim screaming
Heaven, heaven or hell
What's the difference?
One to believe in
One to live in, careful balancing
What's hell to heaven's only flame?
You got that last slaughter on tape, you play it on the radio
It's a dog eat dog world, and from where I sit, there just ain't enough damn dogs
It's a dog eat dog world, and from where I sit, there just ain't enough damn dogs
