Lyrics

What is this gnawing pain
What is there to gain
You've know me all along
Activated as your pawn
For a little destruction

I won't be your slave
I'll put myself in the grave
Before I service you
You know me very well
You've put me through hell
And I won't bow to you
I won't service you

Get out of my mind
I won't do it this time
I fought on their side
You know very well
I'll send you to hell
And I won't bow to you
I won't service you

This gnawing pain
What is there to gain
You've known me all along
I won't be your pawn
They're marching at dawn
I'll be with them - tearing you
Limb for limb

I won't be your slave
I'll put myself in the grave
Before I service you
You know me very well
You've put me through hell
And I won't bow to you
I won't service you
