Give me your life
You sit
I sit
Your gun is armed
My gun is armed
You wait
I wait
Your hand is primed
My hand is primed
You're there
I'm here
Your brain brought you there
My brain brought me here
You won't come out
I won't go out
Your stomach is empty
My stomach is empty
They're gone
They're gone
You won't quit
I wont give up my life
You're afraid
I'm afraid
So give me your life.
Give me your life!
