Lyrics
The Quick And The Dead
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A hand is winding the clock in your head
Tensions rise, push the needle to red
Pick up the tempo, it's getting late
You've got that inner need ccelerate
What now lies in between the hunter and the prey
Set sail, apart from the rest,
Let nothing get in your way
Speed and power, take command
You've got the world in your hand
Pull the trigger, move out ahead
There's two kinds of people
The Quick and the Dead
Cut loose the horses, right to the chase
Got to adrenalize, win this human race
Driving momentum, you take the lead
Gaining intensity, strive to succeed
What now lies in between the hunter and the prey
Set sail, apart from the rest,
Nothing will get in your way
Speed and power, take command
You've got the world in your hand
Pull the trigger, move out ahead
There's two kinds of people
The Quick and the Dead
What now lies in between the hunter and the prey
Set sail, apart from the rest,
Nothing will get in your way
Speed and power, take command
You've got the world in your hand
Pull the trigger, move out ahead
There's two kinds of people
The Quick and the Dead
Speed and power, take command
You've got the world in the palm of your hand
Pull the trigger, move out ahead
There's two kinds of people
The Quick and the Dead
