Once Bitten Twice Shy by Blinded Colony Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2006

[Verse 1]
I will witness it collapse
So it does, just thanks to us
Our many words, not done, just heard
We leave this world

I feel so ashamed that we're to blame
Obvious lie as we all die
Once bitten, twice shy

[Bridge]
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?

[Verse 2]
You've got a sign on your fucking forehead: slow down or be dead
But hey, leave it to our kids; let's sleep instead

[Bridge]
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
Goddammit, you've realized, and it's way too late
[Pre-Chorus]
Once bitten, twice shy
Then how come, yeah, then how come we all die?

[Chorus]
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?

[Verse 3]
No one's perfect, no one's even bloody close
My brain's, my body's, defect, programmed to lose

[Pre-Chorus]
And when you've come to realize it's way too late
Goddammit, you have realized, and it's way too late

[Chorus]
Await the better days, don`t pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?

[Bridge]
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
[Pre-Chorus]
What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand?

[Chorus]
Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?

Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
