Lyrics
verse1:
while the litter smolders you got to lay your body down
all your little soldiers are nowhere to be found
under cover of darkness, under glowing neon light
you know you ain't goin nowhere so you better get ready to fight
chorus1:
you can keep on knockin, but you can't come in
you can keep on talkin, but I know about where you been
seen a million faces, I seen it a million times
always looking for someone else to pay for all my crimes
I'm gonna shoot you down
light you on fire
fire
verse2:
don't you know its money, honey that makes my world go round
I can do anything I like if I lay my money down
you could be a king or a queen, you can hate my evil ways
but when I knock you on your ass, you'll be reelin back for days
chorus2:
you can keep on lookin, everybody else knows your blind
you keep on searchin but there's nothing you can find
seen a million places, I broke a million ties
always lookin for someone else to pay for all my lies
And when I take you down
I'll light you on fire
fire
bridge:
fire one
fire two
fire three
you're going down
