lyrics

Staring in the blackness
I can't have my point of view
Magnetizing madness
Pulls me down from what I do
The only way to wake up
Is inside the orange bottle
Wash it down so quickly
And pull back on the throttle

I'm not gone
Though I suspect that's what you wanted
I'm not a ghost
But prepare to be haunted

I'm back
I'm twice as tough
I'll never give up
You try to kill me
I keep getting stronger
Back
All the way from zero
Carrying the blade
I'll slay you like a hero
That rose up from the grave

Charging toward the light glow
Just ignoring all the hate
They're thinking that they might know
How to keep me from this fate
Their verbal ammunition
Cannot penetrate my metal
I cover my whole body
And push down on the pedal

I'm not gone
Though I suspect that's how it might seem
I'm not a ghost
But I'll be in your dreams

I'm back
I'm twice as tough
I'll never give up
You try to kill me
I keep getting stronger
Back
All the way from zero
Carrying the blade
I'll slay you like a hero
That rose up from the grave

There's no such thing
As starting out with nothing
Unless that's what you wanna see
There's no such thing
As a nobody
Unless that's what you wanna be
