lyrics

I keep bending over backwards
Looking for a faster
Way out of here
I keep hearing that it’s too late
That I should plan my getaway
And just disappear

They want me running round in circles
Turning to the same hurt
Night after night
I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

They came disguised as a new hope
Yeah, that was just a cruel joke
To pull my chain
Tried to give me the blue pill
I spit it out and said go to tell
They said you’re insane

They want me running round in circles
Turning to the same hurt
Night after night
I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

First in battle
Last in war
My family name
My father’s sword
My mother’s love
A loaded gun
A hand grenade
Against the sun
Don’t piss me off
Don’t piss me off
Don’t piss me off

And in the morning i'll be better
Hold my head against your sweater baby
I know you wanna save me tonight
I'm just back against this wall
Surrounded by these animals
That never change

They want me running round in circles
Turning to the same hurt
Night after night
I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

Gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight
I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight

I’m gonna show ‘em my true colors
I’m a killer not a lover
And I know how to fight
