Blinded Colony - Once Bitten, Twice Shy

I will witness it collapse
So it does, just thanks to us
Our many words, not done just heard
We leave this world 

I feel so ashamed that we're to blame
Obvious lie as we all die; once bitten, twice shy 

What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand? 

You've got a sign in your fucking forehead; slow down or be dead!
But hey, leave it our kids, let's sleep instead 

And when you've come to realize it's way too late
God dammit you HAVE realized and it's way too late 

Once bitten, twice shy?
Then how come we all die? 

Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat? 

No one's perfect, no one's even bloody close
My brain's my body's defect, programmed to lose 

And when you've come to realize it's way too late
God dammit you HAVE realized and it's way too late! 

Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat? 

Once bitten, twice shy? 

What will make you understand?
Holding death in your hand? 

Await the better days, don't pull your weight
I'll laugh when you admit defeat
I feel the taste, we're laid to waste
Will you stand the heat?
