Yay Synthy Ska :D

lyrics

Scrolling down my check list, checking all it off
Should have done it before I left because it’s getting close to our stop.
The plan’s replaying over and over in my head
Which sucks because if it doesn’t go perfectly, I’ll soon be dead.

I’ve never owned a gun,
But I’m sure I could use one.
They’re all the same,
Sometimes you win some you lose some.
And I’ll try to get by.
These means aren’t much, but they’re mine.
And So I’ll go.

Now I did what I said I couldn’t but you know we need the cash
It’s just in and out I swear! We’ll just grab the cash and dash.
I’m to far gone but its not over yet, maybe this lose of debt will cleanse my regret
I’ve loaded my rifle and my back up shotty, lets get in there and start the party.

I’ve never owned a gun,
But I’m sure I could use one.
They’re all the same,
Sometimes you win some you lose some.
And I’ll try to get by.
These means aren’t much, but they’re mine.
And So I’ll go.


There was terror in their eyes at the sight of my glock
So to clarify things I screamed through my ski mask stop
What you’re doing and empty all your trays into to my backpack, fill it to the top And everything was going according to plan and I’d lie if I said I wasn’t having fun.
But then I heard the breach, the screams, the flash, and then heard their guns.

I’ve never owned a gun,
But I’m sure I could use one.
They’re all the same,
Sometimes you win some you lose some.
And I’ll try to get by.
These means aren’t much, but they’re mine.
And So I’ll go

I’ve never owned a gun
But I’m sure that I’ve used one.
They’re all the same,
Sometimes you win but I lost one
And I’ll try to stay alive
This wound ain’t much, but I’m dying.
So I’ll go.
