Story Behind the Song
I wanted to write a powerful rock tune about emotions not usually explored in songs. It turned out to be about killing and enjoying it.
Lyrics
There's a voice inside my head, and it's telling me to do wrong.
Everyone I meet is dead, so I'm singing that same ol' song.
Everybody wants to tell me, everybody wants to dream, everybody's got a lie of their own.
But there's a secret that I hide..can't let the truth be known.
Have you ever wonder what it's like to...
Shoot a man and watch him die? I do....
There's a man inside my mirror, and he's standing next to me.
As his eyes are getting clearer, I've gone to I cannot see.
And wonder what he wants from me....
Everybody has to tell me that the man in the mirror is taking over me.
Do you ever wonder what it's like to...
Shoot a man and watch him die?
Have you ever seen the look of fear? Emotion is attacked, a single tear.
A taste of blood is what I yearn, be right back, I've gone crazy again.
Woke up this morning, to a knocking at my door.
There's a man he's smiling there, who I've never seen before.
"Can I come inside," he asked if I found God today?.
Don't need a witness to my cause, just another prey.
Everybody says stop, everybody says run, everybody don't go inside.
As I lock the door behind him, I can see the fear grow in his eyes....
Have you ever wonder what it's like to...
Shoot a man and watch him die? I do...
Do you ever wonder what it's like to...
Shoot a man and watch him die?
Have you ever seen the look of fear? Emotion is attacked, a single tear.
A taste of blood is what I yearn, be right back, I've gone crazy again.
Ohohoh....crazy again....
There's a voice inside my head, and it's telling me to do wrong....
