Lyrics

 I won't go away
 Right here I'll stay
 
 Stand silent in flames
 Stand tall 'till it fades
 
     Shoot me again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     C'mon, Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     I said Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     C'mon, Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     Come on
 
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me
     
     Shoot Me Again
     Shoot Me Again
     Come on (X2)
 
         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you
         All the shit you fake
         Comes back to haunt you
 		
         All the shots
         All the shots
 
         All the shots I take
         What difference did I make?
         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you
 
 I won't go away, with a bullet in my back
 Right here I'll stay, with a bullet in my back
 
    Shoot me (take a shot)
    Shoot me (take a shot)
    Shoot me (take a shot)
    Shoot me (take a shot)
 
 I'll stand on my own, with a bullet in my back
 I'm stranded and sold, with a bullet in my back
 
     Shoot me again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     C'mon, Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     Yeah, Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     
     C'mon, Shoot Me Again
     I ain't dead yet
     I said
 
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me again
     C'mon
         
     Shoot Me Again
     Shoot Me Again
     C'mon
     
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me
     
     Shoot me again
     Shoot me again
     Yeah!
 
         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you
         All the shit you fake
         Comes back to haunt you
 		
         All the shots
         All the shots
 
         All the shots I take (Hey!)
         What difference did I make? (What difference did I make?)
         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you
 
 I bite my tongue
 Trying not to shoot back
 No compromise
 My heart won't pump the other way
 
 Wake the sleeping giant
 Wake the beast
 Wake the sleeping dog
 No, let him sleep (X2)
 
 I bite my tongue
 Trying not to shoot back

         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you
         All the shit you fake
         Comes back to haunt you, oh
 		
         All the shots
         All the shots
 
         All the shots I take (Hey!)
         What difference did I make? (What difference did I make?)
         All the shots I take
         I spit back at you, oh
