Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All roads they lead to shame
All drowning in the blame
All reflections look the same
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 2]
All hide beneath a skin
A hope so paper thin
I'm at the door again
And the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 3]
Even the promise of danger has gone dull
Staring down the barrel of a .45
[Verse 4]
Suck on the barrel
Suck on the barrel
Suck it till it's gone dry
[Verse 5]
For all reflections look the same
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 6]
Redemption purify
Will nothing satisfy?
The scars just multiply
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 7]
Twisting in apocalypse
Death upon the fingertips
Frigid metal touches lips
And the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 8]
'Cause you lied
Just a bullet away
Just a bullet away from leavin' you
Just a bullet away
Stop the voices in my head
[Verse 9]
Caressing death again
Becomes the heroin
Forbidden medicine
Puts a shine on the midnight revolver
[Verse 10]
Eternal borderline
All the faces intertwine
Oh God... now I see mine
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 11]
Even the promise of danger has gone dull
Staring down the barrel of a .45
[Verse 12]
Suck on the barrel
Suck on the barrel
Suck, suck till it's dry
[Verse 13]
For all reflections look the same
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 14]
Down In Misery
Down In Misery
[Verse 15]
Just a bullet away
Just a bullet away from leavin' you
Just a bullet away
Stop the voices in my head
[Verse 16]
All roads they lead to shame
All drowning in the blame
Reflections look the same
In the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 17]
All hide beneath a skin
A hope so paper thin
I'm at the door again
And the shine of the midnight revolver
[Verse 18]
Even the promise of danger has gone dull
Staring down the barrel of a .45
[Verse 19]
Suck on the barrel
Suck on the barrel
Suck... suck till it's dry
[Verse 20]
Do all reflections look the same
In the shine of the midnight revolver?
[Verse 21]
'Cause you lied
Yes you lied
[Verse 22]
Just a bullet away
Just a bullet away from leavin' you
Just a bullet away
Stop the voices in my head
