UNDER THE BLADE



A glint of steel, a flash of light

You know you're not going home tonight

Be it jack or switch, doctor's or mind

Nowhere to run, everywhere you'll find

You can't escape from the bed you've made

When your time has come,

You'll accept the blade!



You're cornered in the alley way

You know you're not alone

You know it's gonna end this way

The chill goes to the bone

Now here it comes that glistening light

It goes into your side

The blackness comes, tonight's the night

The blade is gonna ride



'Cause you're under the blade,

Oh --

You're under the blade.



It's not another party head

This time you cannot rise

Your hands are tied, your legs are strapped

A light shines in your eyes

You faintly see a razor's edge

You open your mouth to cry

You know you can't, it's over now

The blade is gonna ride



'Cause you're under the blade

Oh

You're under the blade



A glint of steel, a flash of light

You know you're not going home tonight

Be it jack or switch, doctor's or mind

Nowhere to run, anywhere you'll find

You can't escape from the bed you've made

When your time has come,

You'll accept the blade!



You've tried to make it to the front

You're pinned against the side

A monster stands before you now

Its mouth is open wide

The lights go on, the night explodes

It tears into your mind

When the night does end, you'll come again,

The blade is gonna ride



'Cause you're under the blade

Oh

Under the blade



Here it comes, baby ...

Oww
