Lyrics for O.D.'d On Life Itself

How could I fool you I rest and assure you Take it off from here and put you on the line, yeah Your back to the pistol and iron bullets whistle Landscape's open and the world is mine, it's still mine Od'd on life, life itself Od'd on life, life itself Od'd on life itself Writings appear on the wall The curtains part and landscape fall There the writings done in blood Yeah, like a mummy's inscription and a bat wing tongue Well then the mouth of the cave will open up wide Wide as the world that's mine, it's mine, it's Still mine So don't you fear the trade in life Life loves force but force loves life This wedding by heaven was made up in hell With the victim as bride and life, life itself Od'd on life, life itself (repeat ad nauseam)
