Time to pick them off one by one...

LYRICS:

[intro]
[instrumental solo]

[verse]
Hey, you and me
we ain't the same thing
I'm running on rooftops
your running with a team.

As I jump down
wipe down,
cleaning up the streets
sweeping kick,
put the mike down
I turn around
putting flowers on the casket
since your looking like a right clown.
right now,
should back up before I punch your lights out.

my words are like my bullets
you wont see the end of this
sent straight to you.
through disappearing messages.

[chorus]
I'd be running with the scissors
cutting down all the killers
I'd be running with the scissors
cutting down all the killers

[verse]
its a pipe dream
film it for your live stream
following the rhyme scheme
I was shot with an ice beam.

now im fire fighting
put it down in the writing
quick with the rounds
swiping up, its exciting

trying to fight in the rain
puddles forming over time
am I too brutal with my swings?
have I gone and crossed a line?

turning water into wine
now they regret
wouldn't say im Jesus
but I like to get my feet wet.

[chorus]
I'd be running with the scissors (oh yeah)
cutting down all the killers (oh yeah)
I'd be running with the scissors (oh yeah)
cutting down all the killers (oh yeah)

[verse]
now I know, you ain't running,
cuz I ain't, done with you.
you been causing to much trouble,
so now, I'll make you choose.
do you want a fist full-a dirt,
or the world to see you loose
im an artist on the streets
you about to be my muse.

like panels on a comic
your picture about to, be split
im knowing every thought
out your head, as I ,read it.
see it,
treated,
as target practice, I reach it.
words forming around every punch
as I swing it.

[chorus]
I'd be running with the scissors (oh yeah)
cutting down all the killers (oh yeah)
I'd be running with the scissors (oh yeah)
cutting down all the killers (oh yeah)

[outro]

RUNNING WITH THE SCISSORS

He finally got what he wanted... but at what cost?

LYRICS:
[intro]
[instrumental]

[chorus]
Don't go and help me
Don't go and save me
I'm just a drop in a puddle
So why would I struggle?

my cries are drowned out
I'm about to pass out
I'm a rain drop on a window
But at least I could be my hero.

[verse]
water feeling shallow
but there's music in my marrow,
I'd be dancing with death
while my hands play piano.

damn, that's a lot to hold...
damn, im feeling cold...
damn, I didn't know...
damn, I don't wanna go...

I leaned for a kiss
and death left through the door
thought I was an apple
she thought rotten to the core,
Maybe doing her work
made her life a bore
Maybe I'm just stupid
but death left me on the floor...

feeling empty
like a big ball of nothingness...
hard to grasp
But isn't that obvious?
attacking you
straight were the money is...
that's what you get
when you damage my happiness...


[chorus]
Don't go and help me
Don't go and save me
I'm just a drop in a puddle
So why would I struggle?

my cries are drowned out
I'm about to pass out
I'm a rain drop on a window
But at least I could be my hero.

[verse]
You put your team first
but left me dead last.
You know that you're the worst
when your team ain't all that
trying to set sail
but I'm crumbling at the mast.
I'm a sinking ship
with every minute passed.
My justice is a medal 
that I wear proudly.
putting you to sleep
makes me sleep soundly
I know, I know,
I can get a bit rowdy.
I get light headed
when my thoughts become cloudy.

I'm feeling a little faint
and a little bit woozy
Was it worth it all
if I'm hanging on loosely
I'm cut by the thread
filled with feelings in my head
raindrops on my skin
think I'm already-

[chorus]
Don't go and help me
Don't go and save me
I'm just a drop in a puddle
So why would I struggle?

my cries are drowned out
I'm about to pass out
I'm a rain drop on a window
But at least I was my hero.

[outro]

(Don't go and help me
Don't go and save me
I'm just a drop in a puddle
So why would I struggle?)

(my cries are drowned out
I'm about to pass out
I'm a rain drop on a window
But at least I was my hero.)


RAINDROP

Easy to feel sympathy for the villains when they are not even bad.

LYRICS:

[intro]
(You could have been my hero...
I know that dream wouldn't last,
so I had to let it go...)

(I put damage on your ego...
but you could have been better,
you know that.)

[chorus]
You could have been my hero...(You could have been my hero)
I know that dream wouldn't last,
so I had to let it go... (so I had to let it go)

I put damage on your ego... (I put damage on your ego)
but you could have been better,
you know that. (you know that)


[verse]
Not all hero's wear a cape
materials fake
whole costume
made of damn Sellotape
I know what you liked
what you despised
how can eve love the apple
when there's no apple in the eyes.
you saving the day
and saying goodbyes, right
but I see what I see,
your identity lies
You ain't saving no lives'
who cares
As long as you're perfect
doesn't matter who dies.

no surprise,
I'm honouring your doomsday
the day that you fall
will tell us all, that it's okay.
It's villains I respected
not hero's I rejected,
I go against the grain
with a vigilante
I invented...

pitch black coat,
I don't mind...

Worker pants, strapped boots
I won't hide...

biker helmet for a mask,
I'm down for a ride...

and scissors in the pocket
so you know I'm cutting ties.

crazy saying I'd be praying
as I'm laying bodies
its the path I'm paving,
Breaking guys, they start swaying
I know it's straining, I'm just playing,
I be taking you for hostage,
weighing out your life
just to see,
if you're worth saving.

[bridge]
(wouldn't have to do your job...)

(wouldn't have to make it stop...)

(our roles had to swap...)

(for me to be looking down on top...)


[chorus]
You could have been my hero...(You could have been my hero)
I know that dream wouldn't last,
so I had to let it go... (so I had to let it go)

I put damage on your ego... (I put damage on your ego)
but you could have been better,
you know that. (you know that)

You could have been my hero...(You could have been my hero)
I know that dream wouldn't last,
so I had to let it go... (so I had to let it go)

I put damage on your ego... (I put damage on your ego)
but you could have been better,
you know that. (you know that)
