Lyrics:

Intro:

Let's go!
Let's go!

Verse 1:

Hurtfull words,
From my enemies of the last five years,
What's it like to die alone,
How does it feel when tears freeze when you cry,
The blood in your veins is twenty below

Chorus:

Sitting in this room playing Russian Roulette,
Finger on the trigger to my dear Juliette,
Out from the window see your back drop silhouette,
This blood on my hands is something I cannot forget
(x2)

Verse 2:

So for now, take this down a notch,
Crash my car through your window,
Make sure you're still alive,
Just in time to kill you

(Repeat Chorus)

I can't take this (take) anymore (x4)
I cannot feel what you've done to me
What you've done to me

(Small acoutic part)

So for now, take this down a notch,
Crash my car through your window, window!

That's pretty much it, some stray parts here and there, and some updates, but besides 
that's pretty much the whole song. Enjoy! :]
