Cripper

Lyrics to Dogbite



Come on



Under pressure

Under control

Feeding the living

With the limbs of the dead



Long before the dawning

Longing for the fall

Hell, we keep the motor humming

I am humming, running dry



Black, on fire, arrows

Aiming in the sky

Searching for a shelter, home

Hiding from each other's pain



Wake me, take me

Turn around and hate me

I may not be good company

But I can kill your apathy



Bleeding desire, beat inside, outside memory

Burning empire, like a fever turning blood into fire



Near the end of the stay

Near the bottom of the line

We all follow the animal

And escape the pain



Now tell me more about the girl

That I'm supposed to be

Sometimes it seems I've had enough

To make me

Make me walk away



If this is what you want

Then this is what you want

Who would even bother

Say, who wouldn't want it, too



Love controls with silence

As it does with words

You used to say that I have fire

Now you're gonna see me burn



Bleeding desire, beat inside, outside memory

Burning empire, like a fever turning blood into fire



What I fake in my head alone

Bleeds wherever I go



Now is just a matter of time

And we are less than a moment of high tension

Once bitten, twice shy



One is wrong and almost done

One is one plus one plus one

One is one more than just none

Another is just one, another is just one



Bleeding desire, beat inside, outside memory

Burning empire, like a fever turning blood into fire
