Death Spares Not The Young
from Speak Some Evil EP by Badsville
lyrics
Ridin' out late through the middle of the night
With no bloody lovin' care to what's wrong or what's right
You sing that same old song with no care for love or soul
But that's just how you rock, yeah, that's just how you roll
And you give no goddamn care for whom the bell tolls
It's tolls for you, boy
Chorus:
And Death Spares Not the Young
And death spares no one
And death spares no one, yeah no one
It for you, boy
Well you tempt calamity at every damn turn
The life in your hands just isn't your concern
You once knew love, but your loves are in the ground
And ya know it's your fault, yet you sleep without a sound
So now you're on the run and flirtin' with death
It ain't far now
<Chorus>
<Bridge>
Ride too fast or ya think to slow
Now ya've burn every damn soul but your own
Bet you're gonna know when you feel that fire
Devil at your back and death creepin' on your tires
And folks say you're too young to die
But they'll change their tune when the Bastard come flyin' by
Ridin' out late through the middle of the night
Satan's on your back when you look him in the eye
But you're the daring kind of fool that smiles in hell
And if you're gonna go you're gonna make a tale to tell
So you grab death by the spine as you're dyin' take that goddamn son of a bitch cross the yellow line
Death ain't nothin'
Death ain't nothin'
Death. Ain't. Nothin'.
With no bloody lovin' care to what's wrong or what's right
You sing that same old song with no care for love or soul
But that's just how you rock, yeah, that's just how you roll
And you give no goddamn care for whom the bell tolls
It's tolls for you, boy
Chorus:
And Death Spares Not the Young
And death spares no one
And death spares no one, yeah no one
It for you, boy
Well you tempt calamity at every damn turn
The life in your hands just isn't your concern
You once knew love, but your loves are in the ground
And ya know it's your fault, yet you sleep without a sound
So now you're on the run and flirtin' with death
It ain't far now
<Chorus>
<Bridge>
Ride too fast or ya think to slow
Now ya've burn every damn soul but your own
Bet you're gonna know when you feel that fire
Devil at your back and death creepin' on your tires
And folks say you're too young to die
But they'll change their tune when the Bastard come flyin' by
Ridin' out late through the middle of the night
Satan's on your back when you look him in the eye
But you're the daring kind of fool that smiles in hell
And if you're gonna go you're gonna make a tale to tell
So you grab death by the spine as you're dyin' take that goddamn son of a bitch cross the yellow line
Death ain't nothin'
Death ain't nothin'
Death. Ain't. Nothin'.
