Fatal Step
Atrocity Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I meet a girl, she seems okay
She wants to show me all her friends

But what I can see, I known before
Their red eyes, the same as my Ma's!

The invite me to drink and to take some pills
"You should smoke a pot of hash, too!"

I try to refuse but I want to integrate
"Don't be a coward, just become our friend!"

"You!"
"Just become our friend!"
"Try!"
"Then you feel like us!"
"To be!"
"Without any sorrows!"
"Free!"
"Without any restraint!"

I want to know these miracle drugs
I want to taste the feelings of them

Beautiful things, in her mind
Thousands of colors, wonderful sounds

Give me some more!

This is your first step to your death!
