Once Bitten, Twice Shy
I will witness it collapse
(So it does) so it does
(Just thanks to us) just thanks to us
(Our many words) our many words
Not done just heard, we leave this world
(I feel so ashamed) I feel so ashamed
(That we're to blame) that we're to blame
(Obvious lie) obvious lie
As we all die, once bitten, twice shy
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?
You've got a sign in your fucking forehead
Slow down or be dead
But hey, leave it to our kids, let's sleep instead
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
God damn it, you have realized it is way too late
Once bitten, twice shy
Then how come, and then how come we all die?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
No one's perfect, no one's even bloody close
My brain's my body's defect, programmed to lose
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
And God damn it, you have realized it is way too late
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
Augh!
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
(So it does) so it does
(Just thanks to us) just thanks to us
(Our many words) our many words
Not done just heard, we leave this world
(I feel so ashamed) I feel so ashamed
(That we're to blame) that we're to blame
(Obvious lie) obvious lie
As we all die, once bitten, twice shy
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?
You've got a sign in your fucking forehead
Slow down or be dead
But hey, leave it to our kids, let's sleep instead
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
God damn it, you have realized it is way too late
Once bitten, twice shy
Then how come, and then how come we all die?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
No one's perfect, no one's even bloody close
My brain's my body's defect, programmed to lose
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
And God damn it, you have realized it is way too late
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
Augh!
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
