Going for the Kill by The Melismatics Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
I've been waiting my whole life
But for what, I've never known
Days spent as strangers
In a city turned to stone
I know you don't know me
Take a chance with the unknown
Though it's always left unsaid
I can read the overtones
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Verse 2: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
Like a distant star I've watched you
Missing for so long
A thousand hours can hypnotize
When everything is wrong
I've been counting down the hours
Sometimes it's stop and start
We create our universe
Let the rest just fall apart
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Bridge: Ryan Smith]
You can't stop it
Why would you want to at all, at all, at all?
So don't stop it
Why would you want to at all?
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
[Instrumental]
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Chorus: Pony Smith, with Ryan Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
I've been waiting my whole life
But for what, I've never known
Days spent as strangers
In a city turned to stone
I know you don't know me
Take a chance with the unknown
Though it's always left unsaid
I can read the overtones
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Verse 2: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
Like a distant star I've watched you
Missing for so long
A thousand hours can hypnotize
When everything is wrong
I've been counting down the hours
Sometimes it's stop and start
We create our universe
Let the rest just fall apart
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Bridge: Ryan Smith]
You can't stop it
Why would you want to at all, at all, at all?
So don't stop it
Why would you want to at all?
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
[Instrumental]
[Chorus: Ryan Smith & Pony Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
[Chorus: Pony Smith, with Ryan Smith]
We're staring at the sun
And when the day is done
We have just begun
I've set my sights to thrill
My heart won't stand still
Going for the kill
