Lyrics (taken from the file Adrenaline_Lyrics written
by James Albers. Shoutouts to you, James!):

Watch me with your eyes, be getting God up in a fire
I want to be just like you then I'd be cool, maybe not,
but

Lift our eyes, big surprise, kiss me goodbye (whore)

Whether you'd be here, I'll be caged in fear--get bored
I wish I could feel like you when I fuck like you,
maybe so, but

Lift our eyes, big surprise, kiss me goodbye

And make you fuck for all you worked for
And we never why did you hurt
I know you fucking monster
I will never get what I want
Inside I'll find

This gift of mine, resing, restring unwind
Eyes that cut, a part of me gets pissed
A part of me gets sore, a part of me gets pissed
A part of me gets sore, a part of me gets pissed
A part of me gets sore

And makes me fuck for that you worked for
And we never why did you hurt
I know you fucking monster
I will never get what I want
Inside I'll find

A part of me gets sick a part of me gets sore (repeat)
Inside I'll find
A part of me gets sore a part of me gets sick (repeat)



This is a very easy ass-kickin' song!
I hope you will be able to play along by the first
attempt. Comments welcome. Enjoy!
