Strength Through Music Lyrics


A peculiar thing happened to me this morning
Just as I reached into my pocket to find it empty of any sow
I saw two broken twigs on the ground
Shaped like the Greek letters F and SF and S, helium, F and S
These are the chemical symbols for iron and sulfur
It was a sign, I'm sure, for me
To make gold from these two elements
I have been working all day over these hellish flamesLocked in his bedroom
He saw the world
A web of action
And cum shot girlsTick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tickDont bother blaming
His games and guns
Hes only playing
And boys just want to have funHe picked a soundtrack
And packed his bag
He hung his Walkman
Around his neckTick, tick, tick, tick, tick

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tickIt's so simple
The way they fall
No bang or whimper
No sound at allTick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, boom

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
