Anger
Kill Switch... Klick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now tell me what they said
When you and yours put the gun to my head
They told us integrity's dead
The false intentions were inbred
Bloody and bleeding, you should be dead
But still don't care who else has bled
A love you bribed with words you said
A loving skin assassins shed
Anger, we feel

Some will lose and some will gain
Some grow fat on others' pain
The thin belts tighten under the strain
From the greedy grips of hunger's reign
Take and take a habit crime
Inject the mass in drugged pantomime
A play on truth, a paradigm
Of those that lie most all the time
Anger, we feel

So tell me how it's supposed to be
As you fuck them and you fuck me
You bought the law but you can't buy me
You'll pay the price, just wait and see
So pass the buck and take a poll
Dig the grave and fill the hole
All that you have is all that you stole
At any cost, you want control

Now tell me what they said
When you and yours put the gun to my head
My hands are cuffed, my legs are spread
I've been abused, but I can't be led
With Satan smiling from your bed
Your hands in blood, the sheets splattered red
Tell me when enough have bled




Tell me when your greed is fed
Anger, we feel
