Better paint me dead
For I seen red along the black
In that tunnel and across train tracks
Dusty forgotten towns
A twisting coil in this snake dance
Where every face is not like the one before
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
Mud on the brain
Shifting data on informants
Giving chase to clues long forgotten
This lack of direction
Has no target or instruction
Creating destruction in the system
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
Corrosion of the light
Gone blind to fate and its will
Stab the notion that you can't fight it
So you're afraid
To lead the way this time
To avenge what's been wronged
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
For you I'll try, oh I will try
For you I'll try, oh I will try
For I seen red along the black
In that tunnel and across train tracks
Dusty forgotten towns
A twisting coil in this snake dance
Where every face is not like the one before
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
Mud on the brain
Shifting data on informants
Giving chase to clues long forgotten
This lack of direction
Has no target or instruction
Creating destruction in the system
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
Corrosion of the light
Gone blind to fate and its will
Stab the notion that you can't fight it
So you're afraid
To lead the way this time
To avenge what's been wronged
Go on and die a little
Kill your roots despite yourself
Rancid loyalties still align
But does it justify
For you I'll try, oh I will try
For you I'll try, oh I will try
