I'm walking on a razor blade
Careful not to cross the line
Every little step I take, it's punishment time now
I'm getting to the end of the blade
Slipping to the other side
Every little step I take, it's punishment time!
Fighting to survive there's no tomorrow
Fighting to survive there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
Heavy on the heart there's no tomorrow
Heavy on the heart there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
I'm hanging like a bat today
Crucified by the sign
Every little move I make, it's punishment time now
I'm sleeping on a bed of nails
They're breaking through one at a time
Cause every little move I make
The punishments mine
Fighting to survive there's no tomorrow
Fighting to survive there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
Heavy on the heart there's no tomorrow
Heavy on the heart there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
I give and don't get
I try to my death
There's something inside of me
That makes me forget
I give and don't get
I'll try to my death
There's something inside of me
That makes me forget
I give and don't get
I'll try to my death
There's something inside of me
That makes me forget
I give and don't get
I'll try to my death
There's something inside of me
That makes me forget!
Fighting to survive there's no tomorrow
Fighting to survive there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
Heavy on the heart there's no tomorrow
Heavy on the heart there's no today
Final flight I'm losing my mind
Losing my mind, losing my mind, losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind, losing my mind, losing my mind!
