Raise Me Up
I've had a premonition
Inside my empty room
This little town is burning down
I'm going nowhere soon
I am so self-contained
Growing holes through my clothes
My nerves are thin I've worn them in
Right down to all my bones
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
Nobody called me lucky
I'm done with fallling short
Nine lives are just enough
To play with death and call it sport
Two hands on the bottle
Dust storm left in my wake
Eight lives left
Seven six five four
Now cut the brakes
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
They'll remember who i am
When i'm gone
I'll live on
Get my lawyer
Gun and money
Hang them on display
If i'm running out of luck
Call my bluff
Lock me up
Bury me that day
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
My legacy
Is picking up speed
A saga worth the repeat
Drift on the edge
Soon I'll be dead
But not without a show
Inside my empty room
This little town is burning down
I'm going nowhere soon
I am so self-contained
Growing holes through my clothes
My nerves are thin I've worn them in
Right down to all my bones
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
Nobody called me lucky
I'm done with fallling short
Nine lives are just enough
To play with death and call it sport
Two hands on the bottle
Dust storm left in my wake
Eight lives left
Seven six five four
Now cut the brakes
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
They'll remember who i am
When i'm gone
I'll live on
Get my lawyer
Gun and money
Hang them on display
If i'm running out of luck
Call my bluff
Lock me up
Bury me that day
Raise me up from the dead
Two shots to knock her dead
Ha ha pay rent with human heads
And now I'm free
Raise me up
Take a ride
The only way to feel alive
Ha ha a straight-laced homicide
Is what I need
My legacy
Is picking up speed
A saga worth the repeat
Drift on the edge
Soon I'll be dead
But not without a show
