You stand holding your courts
Over minions of Capitol Hill
In a bath full of blood
I'm alone, standing still
Under God, you can fire at will
And when (when!)
The devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now (hey!)
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us,
They're laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all
A prodigal son
Can't undo what he's done
A figure head of capitol crime
With a light shining down
As you fall to your knees
To repent would be nothing but lies
And when (when!)
The devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now (hey!)
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us,
They're laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all
La la la la la la la la la la la (hey! ) (hey! )...
Dead beat
Six feet
Dead underground
An eye for an eye
Only leaves us all blind
Going once twice there goes your life
And when (when!)
The devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now (hey!)
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us,
They're laying in their graves,
Damnation free for all
A jester of sorts You stand holding your courts Over minions of Capitol Hill In a bath full of blood I'm alone, standing still Under God, you can fire at will And when (when!) The devil's angels come To take your life and lead you To the flames beneath Your headstone reads now (hey!) Here lies the dead who was Hung by his head beneath us, They're laying in their graves, Damnation free for all A prodigal son Can't undo what he's done A figure head of capitol crime With a light shining down As you fall to your knees To repent would be nothing but lies And when (when!) The devil's angels come To take your life and lead you To the flames beneath Your headstone reads now (hey!) Here lies the dead who was Hung by his head beneath us, They're laying in their graves, Damnation free for all La la la la la la la la la la la (hey! ) (hey! )... Dead beat Six feet Dead underground An eye for an eye Only leaves us all blind Going once twice there goes your life And when (when!) The devil's angels come To take your life and lead you To the flames beneath Your headstone reads now (hey!) Here lies the dead who was Hung by his head beneath us, They're laying in their graves, Damnation free for all Explain Request ×
