The Kill

[Verse 1]
She was the only one that looked at me
The only one I feel
The only one who makes me smile
The only one that's real
Us against the world, and I was never alone
Now they say the lights are on, but nobody's home
Yeah, and it's all because of you, and the things you did that night
You had too much to drink and then you went out on a ride
You struck my baby down, and then you took her away
They slapped you on the wrist, but tonight, you're gon' pay

[Chorus]
I'm drivin' down the highway at a quarter to nine
Picture in my pocket, and one thing on my mind
Nеver thought I would, but now I know that I will
Ten minutes from now, I'm goin' in for thе kill

[Verse 2]
Saw you on a Saturday walkin' down the bar
Laughin' with your friends and now it's goin' way too far
You're out livin' life, and my girlfriend's in that bed
I ain't gonna sleep until I fill you with lead
My baby's goin' away for the things you did that night
We had it all together, man, our future was so bright
Now she's stuck inside her head, while you're out with your friends
I can't let it be this way, tonight is when it ends

[Chorus]
I'm drivin' down the highway at a quarter to nine
Picture in my pocket, and one thing on my mind
Never thought I would, but now I know that I will
Ten minutes from now, I'm goin' in for the kill

[Bridge]
I've never been the kind of guy who can carry out a plan
But now we're in this parking lot, and it's nice to meet you man
Standin' up this close to you, I thought you'd be much bigger
My eyes are open wide as I'm squeezin' on the trigger

[Chorus]
I'm drivin' down the highway at a quarter to ten
Blue lights in my rearview, and it's close to the end
Never thought they would, but now they know that they will
One second from now, they're goin' in for the kill
