[Verse 1]

Beast mode

Everybody's strikin' a pose

Everybody's taxin' my soul

They say it's all the rage

To never act your age


[Verse 2]

So, what you gonna hit me with next?

Darwin or a crucifix?

So, why you wanna do me like this?

It's always so extreme

But what's it really mean?


[Pre-Chorus]

When you're beggin' for a brick

Just to throw it back and forth

And you call each other sick

Yet you're comin' back for more

Back for more of what you love

Back for more of what you hate

You can't stop, stop, stop

'Cause you're already too late


[Chorus]

So, you kill your conscience

Cry yourself to sleep

Kill your conscience

Better you than me

You're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Yeah, you're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts


[Verse 3]

Good luck (Good luck)

Everybody's passin' the buck (The buck)

Prayin' that they're makin' the cut (The cut)

They'll sell you by the pound

And keep you underground


[Pre-Chorus]

While you're scratchin' at the gate

Screamin', "Come on, let me in!"

Like a fully loaded zombie

Throwin' caution to the wind

Back for more of what you love

Back for more of what you hate

You can't stop, stop, stop

'Cause you're already too late


[Chorus]

So, you kill your conscience

Cry yourself to sleep

Kill your conscience

Better you than me

You're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Yeah, you're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts


[Bridge]

(Ready! Aim!) (Conscience, conscience) (Hey!)

(Ready! Aim!) (Conscience, conscience) (Hey!)

(Ready! Aim!) (Conscience, conscience) (Hey!)

(Ready! Aim!) (Conscience, conscience) (Hey!)

(Hey!)

(Hey!)

(Hey!)

(Hey!)


[Chorus]

Kill your conscience

Cry yourself to sleep

Kill your conscience

Better you than me

You're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Kill your conscience

(Conscience, conscience)

Yeah, you're all plugged in

Ready and rehearsed

Do your best, do your worst

Show me where it hurts


[Outro]

Kill your conscience

Kill your conscience

Kill your conscience

Kill your conscience

Kill your conscience
