I've played your games long enough
I've fed your lies and gained your trust
I've swallowed my pride and buried my soul
And now I'm filled with an empty cold
I'm tired of your selfish schemes
I've compromised my sweetest dreams
I've walked your path but now I'm through
I've paid my dues, I'm better than you
Oh, the bullets fly
From your mouth death comes alive
A bloodbath dream, a killer queen
What's lived and lied and is to be
Oh, the angels cry
Iron fists breed life to die
Blasphemy, this social queen
Their law is just the lies they speak
I've obeyed your laws for far too long
I shut my eyes while you told me wrong
I've walked your way but now you'll pay
I'll black out your day, hear what I say
I'll smash this cage and break these chains
I'll pride myself on bringing pain
I'll live in peace and you'll hold regret
And what I've done you won't forget
