Song lyrics

The devil's house in the shape of a chapel,
You hid the knife in the core of an apple.
Burn me, try to hurt me,
Try to hit me when my back was turning.

I saw you wait where the shadows are growing,
You're talking straight but your colors are showing.
Burn me, try to hurt me,
Try to get me when my head was turning.

You want to rain on my survival story,
You're crazy, baby, 'cause I've never had a doubt.
I'm singin' songs about love and glory,
Oh-oh-oh...

Your gun went,
“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You shot me to the ground,
But you can't break me down.
“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You tried to knock me out,
No, you can't break me down.

It's just my natural reaction,
When I hit the floor,
I'm the original assassin,
I come up for more.

You put me up so you can watch me crumble,
I always knew you were some kind of trouble.
Lurking, you can't hurt me,
'cause I see just how your evil's working.

A silver tongue with the best of intentions,
But you're a child with the cruelest inventions.
Burning, you're just hurtin',
I know somewhere deep in hell you're workin'...

You want to rain on my survival story,
You're crazy, baby, 'cause I've never had a doubt.
I'm singin' songs about love and glory,
Oh-oh-oh...

Your gun went,
“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You shot me to the ground,
But you can't break me down.
“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You tried to knock me out,
No, you can't break me down.

It's just my natural reaction,
When I hit the floor,
I'm the original assassin,
I come up for more.

You don't know what you started,
You hit but missed the target.
You don't know what you started,
You hit but missed the target.
You don't know what you started,
You hit but missed the target.
You don't know what you started,
You hit but missed the target.

“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You shot me to the ground,
But you can't break me down.
“BANG, BANG, BANG!”
You tried to knock me out,
No, you can't break me down.

It's just my natural reaction,
When I hit the floor,
I'm the original assassin,
I come up for more.
