With the taste of steel in my mouth,
This could all be over so soon,
And the memory of love in my head will take,
The weight off the trigger and fight to keep me safe.
But I am a demon,
A demon.
So please write your stories about me,
Make me a hero,
So lie through your teeth writing history,
I am the reason,
I walk alone.
I have lived long enough to become my enemy,
And they won't mark my grave when I'm buried,
Cause no one comes for a thief like me,
No one cares for a thief like me.
A thief like me,
A thief like me,
A thief like me,
A thief like me.
I was an outlaw a father no more,
I was an outlaw no wife of my own,
I was an outlaw a father no more,
I was an outlaw no wife of my own,
I was an outlaw a father no more,
I was an outlaw a father no more,
I was an outlaw a father no more,
I was an outlaw until I end it all.
So lie through your teeth writing history,
I am the reason,
I walk alone.

Ferocious, fierce, fiery and furious. I'll really move to Australia if it keeps going like this. This, together with AoR, grows on you and grows into you until it possesses you completely. Escape is not an option. YomaBarr
Despite the kinda cheesy name playing with name of THE man, these guys know how to make music. Track #1 got me by the balls.
