Shot in the Dark

Out on the street I’m stalking <br/> The night <br/> I can hear my heavy breathing <br/> Paid for the kill but it doesn't <br/> Seem right <br/> Something there i can't believe <br/> In <br/> Voices are calling from inside <br/> My head <br/> I can hear them i can hear them <br/> Vanishing memories of things <br/> That were said <br/> They can't try to hurt me now <br/> <br/> But a shot in the dark one step <br/> Away from you <br/> A shot in the dark always <br/> Creeping up on you <br/> <br/> Taught by the powers that <br/> Preach over me <br/> I can hear their empty reason <br/> I wouldn't listen i learned how <br/> To fight <br/> I opened up my mind to treason <br/> <br/> But just like the wounded and <br/> When it's too late <br/> They'll remember they'll <br/> Surrender <br/> Never a care for that people <br/> Who hate <br/> Underestimate me now <br/> <br/> But a shot in the dark one step <br/> Away from you <br/> A shot in the dark not a thing <br/> That you can do <br/> A shot in the dark always <br/> Creeping up on you <br/> <br/> But just like the wounded and <br/> When it's too late <br/> They'll remember they'll <br/> Surrender <br/> Never a care for the people <br/> Who hate <br/> Underestimate me now <br/> <br/> But a shot in the dark one step <br/> Away from you <br/> A shot in the dark not a thing <br/> That you can do <br/> A shot in the dark always <br/> Creeping up on you

They couldn't see what i thought would be so Obvious They hide behind the laws they make for all of Us. The ministry of truth at deals with pretense The ministry of peace that sits on defense I'm washing my hands of what they're tryin' to Do I'm breaking the rules and its for me and for you. I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll tell you no lies They think i worship the devil They only see through his eyes I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel. They live their lives in fear and insecurity And all you do is pay for their prosperity The ministry of fear that won't let you live The ministry of grace that doesn't forgive Do what you will to try and make me conform But I’ll make you wish that you had never been Born Cause I’m a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll do as i please I'm a rock 'n' roll rebel I'm a free as the breeze I'm a just rock 'n' roll rebel They'll try playin with your heart They know it rules your head They only feel what bigotry feels They won't fool me again (oh no) (solo) God only knows why they couldn't see that Obvious Is it because they manifest the incubus The ministry of war that got caught in the draught The ministry of joy that still hasn't laughed When its all boiled down and the days at the end I'll give you no bullshit and I’ll never pretend Cause I’m a rock 'n' roll rebel I'll tell you no lies They say i worship the devil Why don't they open their eyes... I’m just
