[Verse 1]

You know the feeling when adrenaline takes control

Can't beat the rush that leaves a suicidal hold

Instinct spares no one destroying the human heart

The taste of blood can rip your soul apart


[Verse 2]

Devils that drive us do not discriminate

A state of mind that becomes the ultimate end

Action reaction, blood line is not immune

To the depth of human nature inside of me and you


[Chorus]

A sociopath with empty eyes and no soul

Paranoid psychotic heart of stone

My blood runs cold


[Verse 3]

Evils of passion can drive reason to extremes

Love, hate and murder, temporary insanity

On the edge of a demented personality

Emotional pain is a deadly reality


[Chorus]

A sociopath with empty eyes and no soul

Paranoid psychotic heart of stone

My blood runs cold


[Instrumental Break]


[Bridge]

A choice is made of free will

Just like the choice to kill

Decisions to lose control

My self-destructive rationale

A choice is made, made of free will

Just like the choice, the choice to kill

In the speed of a moment

Life stands still

Now you're standing in my killing field


[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge]

A choice is made of free will

Just like the choice to kill

In the speed of a moment

Life stands still

Now you're standing in my killing field
