In For The Kill
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.
We can fight our desires
Ouuhh but when we start making fires
We get ever so hot
Ouuhh whether we like it or not.
They say we can love who we trust
Ouuhh but what is love without lust?
Two hearts with accurate devotions
Ooh, and what are feelings without emotions?
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
I had my hopes out on the line
Ouuhh will they be ready for you in time
If you leave them out too long
Ouuhh they'll be withered by the sun
Full stops and exclamation marks
Ouuhh my words stumble before I start
How far can you send emotions?
Ooh, can this bridge cross the ocean?
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
Let's go to war to make peace
Let's be cold to create heat
Up in darkness we can see
And you're not blinded for the light from me
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
