Lyrics
[Solo-Poland] Its twilight and I wake up hot My body's soaked in a cold, cold sweat I reenact the lurid scenes And clawed engravings in my head Oh, I can't punch hard enough and I run I can't kick high enough and I run I can't shoot straight enough and I run I can't hold on enough and I run Oh, I can't stay down enough and I run I can't take pain enough and I run I can't bleed fast enough I can't die dead enough The air is thick, but the oxygen's thin My heart is beating like a drum, boom! And ice is flowing through my veins Explosives on my lips and in my lungs Oh, I can't punch hard enough and I run I can't kick high enough and I run I can't shoot straight enough and I run I can't hold on enough and I run Oh, I can't stay down enough and I run I can't take pain enough and I run I can't bleed fast enough I can't die dead enough I don't know what I'm running from And I don't know where I'm running to There's something deep and strange inside of me I see I don't know what I'm running from And I don't know where I'm running to Something's compelling me to run into the dark And now I am more driven than before And now I live just to settle score And now I feel the nearness of your breath Now I introduce you to your death [Solo-Poland] [Solo-Mustaine] [Solo-Poland] I am more driven than before I live just to settle score I feel the nearness of your breath I introduce you to your death I can't punch hard enough I can't kick high enough I can't shoot straight enough I can't hold on enough I can't stay down enough, die dead enough I can't take pain enough, die dead enough I can't bleed fast enough, die dead enough I can't die dead enough, die dead enough [End -solo- fills Poland]
