Necessary evil

Back full of thorns in a bed full of roses

Take the pleasure with the pain, double doses

Stuck in a rage, can't escape the emotion

Can't escape the emotion

'Cause I try and I try, but I lose every time

I try to change anything in the timeline

Life's a game only won in the mind's eye

Looking for a way out, but it's all just in vain

Time won't wait and there's no sequel, waste away to thread the needle

Weighed down 'cause it all ends the same

Life is pain and love is lethal, it's all necessary evil

Control is an illusion, get a grip and then you lose it

You can die from doom and gloomin' or embrace the grave and learn to use it

Back full of thorns in a bed full of roses

Take the pleasure with the pain, double doses

Stuck in a rage, can't escape the emotion

Bad turned to worse is the face of the omen

Bad turned to worse is the face of the omen, oh

Looking for a way out, but it's all just in vain

Time won't wait and there's no sequel, waste away to thread the needle

Weighed down 'cause it all ends the same

Life is pain and love is lethal, it's all necessary evil

Bow your head to the balanced scale, no deliverance

All hail

All hail

Face of the omen, omen

Looking for a way out, but it's all just in vain

Time won't wait and there's no sequel, waste away to thread the needle

Weighed down 'cause it all ends the same

Life is pain and love is lethal, it's all necessary evil
