Lyrics

Guilty as charged, my dammed intellect Is someone else controlling me? Death in the air, trapped in living danger This can't be happening to me Who made you God to say "I'll take your life from you?" Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame, yeah The blinds are falling, sign, my fate the suit of death The beginning of the end Frigid and cold, someone's deathly cold Consciousness, my only friend My fingers grip with fear What am I doing here? Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame Someone help me, oh, please, God, help me They're trying to take it all away I don't want to die Someone help me, oh, please, God, help me They're trying to take it all away I don't want to die Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy Come on, let's see your fuckin' hands Ayy Ha-ha Time moving slow, minutes seem like hours Final curtain call, I see I'm too weak to resist, just take it all away This is true, just let it be Awakened by a horrid scream Wakened from this frightening dream Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flame, yeah Ha-ha
