lyrics

Blazing down the highway
Blazing through that sun.
Engine is churning,
Pushing through the wind,
And they're closing in.

Their eyes are burning red,
For the pleasures ahead.
A cheshire grin and delight for sin.

I opened that door,
Now they're coming,
Coming for it all.

A moment of decent,
A second of regret,
But they had used her for their own
Despicable ends.

Now they're hunting in pairs,
Pulling at the chain.
The man in control suffers the strain,
Revels in your pain.

And bullets may fly,
And faces will peel,
And blood is the colour of their heel.

Sharks are out and they're looking for their feast.
Sharks are out and I know that I'm next for the belly of the beast.
Sharks are out and I know that they'll never cease

Strange memories
On a nervous flight.
And the headlights keep throwing
Their warm yellow light.

I remember stepping out,
Into the night.
And we clung onto each other,
We clung on tight.
In this love there were no degrees,
No taxes or charging of fees.
So when I saw him there
I just did not care.
I ran him down,
Hard into the ground.
It's an eye for an eye
And a soul for a soul
and you know I ain't gonna lose
Any sleep at all.

The sharks are out and I know I'm next for the belly of the beast.
The sharks are out and I know that they'll never cease
Sharks are out and I know I ain't gonna get no peace.

Floating down the highway,
Floating through the rain.
Floating through the night,
Never feeling no pain.
I opened that door.
Now they're coming,
Coming for some more,
Coming for some more,
Coming for some more,
