Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's just too damn easy to die in this life
Who's making the decisions?
Tell me, who's got the right?
[Bridge]
WOH, OH, OH
My grief turns to anger
WOH, OH, AH, OH
It's time to...
[PreChorus]
Say good-bye
It's a horror
Memories
Nothing's harder
[Verse 2]
I know that there's no answer
I mean, what did I expect?
So many unanswered questions
I can't believe, I can't accept
[Bridge]
WOH, OH, OH
My anger turns to hatred
WOH, OH, AH, OH
It's time to...
[PreChorus]
Say good-bye
It's a horror
Memories
Nothing's harder
[Chorus]
WOH, AH, OH
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
I'm gonna break
The horror of it all
Tell me why
[Verse 3]
You're not supposed to question
But why is there so much pain
When someone's taken from you
What can you do or say?
[Bridge]
WOH, OH, OH
My hatred turns to violence
WOH, OH, AH, OH
It's time to...
[PreChorus]
Say good-bye
It's a horror
Memories
Nothing's harder
[Chorus]
WOH, AH, OH
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
I'm gonna break
The horror of it all
Tell me why
[Verse 4]
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
[PreChorus]
Say good-bye, it's such a horror
My memories, there's nothing harder
The anger and hatred fill the page
So smash the walls, it's time to rage
[Verse 5]
The horror of it all
The horror of it all
Anger and hatred fill the page
Smash the walls, it's time to rage
