Fuel
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.
Gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Ooh
Yeah
Turn on, I see red
Adrenaline crash and crack my head
Nitro junkie, paint me dead
And I see red!
A hundred plus through black and white
War horse, war head
Fuck 'em, man
White knuckle tight
Through black and white
Ooh
On I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
Ooh
And then I burn
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline
So gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Yeah
Turn on beyond the bone
Swallow future, spit out hope
Burn your face upon the chrome
Yeah, oh, yeah!
Take the corner, going to crash
Headlights, headlines
Another junkie, lives too fast
Yeah, lives way too fast, fast, fast, ooh
Ooh
On I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
Ooh
And on I burn
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline
So gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Oh, yeah
White knuckle tight
Ooh
Gimme fuel, gimme fire
My desire
Ooh
On I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
Ooh
And on and on
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline
Gimme fuel, gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Ooh
On I burn
