"Kill Or Be Killed"

[Intro:]
(Kill or be killed)

Cornered, I'm exhausted with fear
Our love and compassion dissolved
And demons have materialised in me
Can't fight them, they're taking control

[Pre-Chorus:]
And we've tried, oh, we've tried
So hard to be good
But the world rewards us when we're bad

[Chorus 1:]
Fate is driving me insane
It's forcing me to face
I must kill or be killed

[Post-Chorus:]
(Kill or be killed)

They've driven a stake right through my heart
I'm growing so cold and detached

[Pre-Chorus:]
And I've tried, oh, I've tried
So hard to spread love
But she prefers it when I assert control

[Chorus 2:]
Fate has brought us here to face
Our hopes and dreams erased
Either kill or be killed

[Guitar solo]

[Breakdown:]
(Kill or be killed)
(Kill or be killed)

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge:]
Ya-ya...
Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
Either kill or be killed

[Chorus 1:]
Fate, is driving me insane
It's forcing me to face
I must kill or be killed

[Outro:]
(Kill or be killed)
(Kill or be killed)
(Kill or be killed)
(Kill or be)
