Now I know how the story goes
The wicked all will die
How do you know it?
I just know it, I just know it.
Oh, I’ve seen how this horror things ends
The youngest man survives.
How do you know it?
I just know it, I just know it.
Line in line with history, oooh
Line in line with make believe, ooh
Line by line, oh, you all scream by.
Line by line, oh, you all scream by.
