| | <pre> |
| | They fall in line |
| | One at a time |
| | Ready to play |
| | I can't see them anyway |
| | No time to lose |
| | We've got to move |
| | Steady your hand |
| | I am losing sight again |
|
| |
|
| ==Lyrics==
| | Fire your guns |
| [Verse 1]
| | Its time to run |
| <br />They fall in line,
| | Blow me away |
| <br />One at a time.
| | I will stay in the mess I've made |
| <br />Ready to play
| | After the fall |
| <br />(I can't see them anyway)
| | We'll shake it off |
| <br />No time to lose
| | Show me the way |
| <br />We've got to move
| |
| <br />Steady the helm
| |
| <br />(I am losing sight again)

|
| <br />[Bridge]
| | Only the strongest will survive |
| <br />Fire your guns,
| | Lead me to heaven when we die |
| <br />It's time to run,
| | I am a shadow on the wall |
| <br />Blow me away.
| | I'll be the one to save us all |
| <br />(I will stay, In the mess I made)

| <br />Lead me to Heaven when we die,
| | Lying in wait |
| <br />I am the shadow on the wall,
| | Caught inside this tidal wave |
| <br />I'll be the one to save us all.
| | Your cover's blown |
| | Nowhere to go |
| | Holding your fate |
| | Loaded, I will walk alone |
