Asking Alexandria - Through sin and Self-Destruction
"RECKLESS AND RELENTLESS"
Music is fucking dead
It's thanks to you cunts stabbing it in the fucking chest
You, and every one of these fake, righteous, undeserving bands
Fuck you
Through sin and self destruction I stumble home, never alone
My only home is the bottom of a bottle and a rolled up bill and I'm ready to go
I live the same day in and out and I don't care how long I last
All the girls and drink and drugs but don't get me wrong
I'm having a fucking blast
I am rock and roll
Livin' the life that you can only dream of
I am rock and roll
At its fucking finest
Just like the cigarettes hurt
Just like the whiskey burns
Whoa whoa
I guess I'm never gonna learn
[x2]
Not gonna stop until my heart stops beating
Not gonna stop until my last breath comes
I'm gonna go until I hit the floor and I can't find my back to my feet anymore
Pass me a glass and let's destroy everything in this fucking place
Life at 300 miles an hour
You pussies can't keep up with this fucking pace
I am rock and roll
Livin' the life that you can only dream of
I am rock and roll
At its fucking finest
Just like the cigarettes hurt
Just like the whiskey burns
Whoa whoa
I guess I'm never gonna learn
[x2]
I've spent the last two years tearing apart my soul
I'll put the next two in to kick-start the good old days of rock and roll
Without remorse, without regret, without a second thought
You hit the nail on the head with the back of your fucking throat
I am rock and roll
Livin' the life that you can only dream of
I am rock and roll
At its fucking finest
Music is fucking dead
It's thanks to you cunts stabbing it in the fucking chest
You, and every one of these fake, righteous, undeserving bands
Fuck you
"TO THE STAGE"
I'm out the door, I'm on my ass again like every night before
I'm off the wall, out of my fucking mind, I'm out of control
I'll be the end of her, I'm in her head and in control
She's let me in, now take a sip and let the show begin
The floor's all yours, the house is full
You've made the slip now take the fall
I pull your strings, you're too deep in
So will she sink or swim?
Ladies and gentlemen place your fucking bets
Here they come
Oh she's drown, how very spectacular
What a work of art I've spawned
Man am I proud of myself on this one
She's such a fucking masterpiece
Self destruction is such a pretty little thing
I know that I should walk away
But I can't bring myself to quit this game
She's just a beautiful girl with the weight of the world on her shoulders
I'm just a kick in the teeth from a world that's painted gold
She's out the door, she's on her ass again like every night before
She's off the wall, out of her fucking mind, she's out of control
I was the end of her
In her head, in control
Just like before
I should've told you again
That I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
"DEAR INSANITY"
Oh sweet insanity
You take my hand and walk me out into the dark
We walk this road for hours and hours
To the white hills, and the oceans
On a collision course, to hell we march
We're doomed to this now
Oh the irony
If I'm going down I won't go down alone
You're doomed to this one
You're doomed to
You're doomed to this now
You're doomed to
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under
We're going under
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under
We're going under
I've walk this road for hours
To the white hills, and the oceans
I search for solace in this toxic land of sin
Just let me in (Just let me in)
Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing
Their wine subdues me
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under
We're going under
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under
We're going under
Dreams, my mind won't lift me from my dreams
And thought I try I can't escape my mind
Dreams, my mind won't lift me from my dreams
And though you try you can't escape me
You've seen what I've become
Now you've seen what I can do
Now you've seen what I'm capable of
I've walk this road for hours to the white hills, and the oceans
I search for solace in this toxic land of sin
Just let me in
Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing
Their wine subdues me
Welcome to the diary of a man that lost his mind so long ago
Welcome to the shell of a man with a heart so black and cold
Over and over in my head.
