lyrics

They say the road is tough,
But hell I’ve got nothing left to loose.
What fun is beating up someone,
who’s body has forgotten how to bruise.
Hell bent on giving up.
But, I’d sure hate to call you right.
Suck up what little I’ve got left.
And Ill stand up here and fight.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.

So good to see you,
But I hate for it to be on these terms.
By now you think this’d be a lesson,
That I would have learned.
You’re the great taker,
And I fear I’ve got nothing left to retrieve.
Yet somehow you find a part of me,
I’m not quite ready to leave.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.

Our final meeting,
And I guess you’d say this is it.
You got what you wanted,
And I’m the one thats left here with shit.
You stripped me down and left me,
Standing here my bare skin and bones.
I guess this mess you’ve left me,
Is all Ive got left to call my home.

Oh no no no,
I wont give in that easy.
Despite the fact you’ve got me,
Gagged and bound.
You’ve got me cornered but not coward.
So give me your best shot.
Give me your best shot.
