Overkill
What It Takes
Train-train burning like a absolute,
Drunk with the love of the fire
Brain-brain burning and the leather boot.
Kicking like he never gets tired...
I saw the coming of the faster than light speed,
Burning track, conventional fool
Wham-crack-bam-slap
Far out of sight speed,
Hammered like a kicking mule
Here we come now, here we go
Need you now, no mistakes
Stand up tall and give me,
What it takes
Hit the ground running,
I was faster than the light speed
Burning before my feet hit the floor
Damn machine gunning
Kept me far out of sight feed,
Pull the shades and lock all the
1-2-3-Door
I saw the coming-coming, into the void
And I was drunk with the love of the fire
Was a knock-down, drag-out
Never fail me boots
I was kicking like I never get
1-2-3-More
Need you now, no mistakes
Stand up tall and give me,
What it takes
Need you now, I'm not afraid
Stand up straight and kick me
If that's what it takes
Little hot, a little cold
A little young is growing old
A little prick, a little bold,
Never did what he was told
I'll tell ya why you're feeling bad,
A little played, a little sad
A little more you never had,
A little sane is going mad
Seems you had enough of me,
Enough or more eternity
I'll tell you what I'm going to be,
I'm going to be your misery
And when you feel you're going to break,
Say your prayers for goodness sake
We're going to see what you can take,
We're going to see now what it takes
Count it as you did before, count it out 2-2-3-4
Count it when you're going to break
Count it out it's what it takes
Count it when you're feeling bad,
Count it when you're going mad
Count on me for goodness sake,
Count on it and what it takes
What it takes
What It Takes
Train-train burning like a absolute,
Drunk with the love of the fire
Brain-brain burning and the leather boot.
Kicking like he never gets tired...
I saw the coming of the faster than light speed,
Burning track, conventional fool
Wham-crack-bam-slap
Far out of sight speed,
Hammered like a kicking mule
Here we come now, here we go
Need you now, no mistakes
Stand up tall and give me,
What it takes
Hit the ground running,
I was faster than the light speed
Burning before my feet hit the floor
Damn machine gunning
Kept me far out of sight feed,
Pull the shades and lock all the
1-2-3-Door
I saw the coming-coming, into the void
And I was drunk with the love of the fire
Was a knock-down, drag-out
Never fail me boots
I was kicking like I never get
1-2-3-More
Need you now, no mistakes
Stand up tall and give me,
What it takes
Need you now, I'm not afraid
Stand up straight and kick me
If that's what it takes

A little young is growing old
A little prick, a little bold,

Count it when you're going to break
Count it out it's what it takes
Count it when you're feeling bad,
Count it when you're going mad
Count on me for goodness sake,
Count on it and what it takes
What it takes
3. Skull And Bones
[Features Randall Blythe (Lamb of God) on vocals]
All buys are final the act suicidal
A moment defining a life
Not hatred or racial, goddamn, insulatial
Confusion controlling the strife
The pain now consuming
There'll be no exhuming
Destroying the core of the lie
The man with his hand-up
Had just better shut-up
God lights-up and sits to the right
When I had you
Dancing like a angel in my hand
When I need you, counting time
A trillion grains of sand
The commission/skull and bones
Extradiction/skull and bones
Landing a knockout, negotiate lockout
The war in the crescent was theirs
The prices grew higher, the need for the buyer
The cost, loss of life, splitting hairs
The pain all consuming, for those without grooming
Not taken the time yet to learn
The man feels deserted, and Toby's perverted
God sits back, and waits his turn
When I had you
Dancing like a angel in my hand
When I need you, counting time
A trillion grains of sand
When I had you standing like a soldier in my hand
When I need you,counting lives a trillion grains of...
Strict obligation to deterioration,
Other blood is all over me
For the good of the nation a world obligation
Welcome to the society
I was born with the right and the financial might,
To put a price on your head so worth living
Shot with the light on the very same night,
That you thought that your god was so giving
Hammer-hammer down you, one time alone
For the order of the nation
Hammer-hammer down you, skull and bones
A full, life-long sensation
