Lyrics[]

I slide through the wasteland that's my world

My hunger takes your life, preyed on to keep me alive, yeah

Mercy's all that you need, mercy's empty in me

Can't you feel the poison rising out of the morning and clear through the night

You can feel my strength destroy you straight to the heart from the venomous bite

That's right I shed my skin tonight but my fangs are hard to hide

And you know that you're going to die, yeah

Mercy's all that you need, mercy's empty to me

Can't you feel the poison rising out of the morning and clear through the night

You can feel my strength destroy you straight to the heart from the venomous bite

I can't regret, can't escape decisions made for me, no control

That burns and never dies, wrapped around I'll bury my fangs inside

Making my way through the night you're still in my sight

You're runnin' away cause ya' know you can't hide

My instincts are cold blooded hate; to you I'm the bearer of fate

Wrong place and now the wrong time, now terror is all that you'll find

Can't you feel the poison rising out of the morning and clear through the night

You can feel my strength destroy you straight to the heart from the venomous bite

I can't regret, can't escape decisions made for me, no control

That burns and never dies, wrapped around I'll bury my fangs inside

Stay inside tonight, you're out there all alone

Vanish from my sites, venomous control

You can't make it right, my appetite has grown

Lost your final fight, no love will be shown

Stay inside tonight, you're out there all alone

Vanish from my sites, venomous control

You can't make it right, my appetite has grown

Lost your final fight, no love will be shown
