In For the Kill

A dialogue between two lovers.

                                                             

Verse: He held the gun up to my heart

And when his smooth lips split apart

He said, “Girl, make a decision quick...”

I’m looking into a set of eyes with no emotion

Dark like the night, cold as the ocean

I said, “Hey, you’re scaring me just a little bit,

Hook: “You want somebody to save you

But you can’t force me to love you

I can’t kill you if you’re already dead inside

So don’t say that I’m”

Chorus: Going in for the kill!

The scene before my eyes is so surreal,

I’ve got someone pointing a loaded barrel at me

And I can’t even run

Are you going in for the kill?

‘Cause I know that if I say what I feel,

You’re gonna come charging at me,

And my life will end in one...second (whispered)

Verse: He’s standing over there, sweat rolling down his eyes

Smirking devilishly, to add the element of surprise

And he says, “Can’t you see I’m waiting for a reply.”

I can feel my heart start to race

His finger itching as he begins to pace

“How do I know that I’m not gonna die?”

Hook: “Girl, you know you hold my life in your hands,

Tell me what to do to make you understand

That you can kill a soul in a frigid frame

I got a feeling that your going,”

Chorus: Going in for the kill!

The scene before my eyes is so surreal,

I’ve got someone threatening to take their love away

What can I do to make you stay?

Are you going in for the kill?

‘Cause I thought that if I said what I feel,

You’d promise me that you wouldn’t leave,

How could take your love from me?

Bridge: (Me) You’re saying I have power over you

Now you’ve turned it around on me

With the help of a gun, you’re pleading for love

But I’m under duress, I can’t give into this

(Boy) Can’t you see that you have my heart

You’re the only one who knows the real me

Why do you torture me so, stabbing me in my soul

I’m addicted to you, don’t make me withdraw from you...

Chorus: Going in for the kill!

The scene before my eyes is so surreal,

I’ve got someone pointing a loaded barrel at me

And I can’t even run

Are you going in for the kill?

‘Cause I know that if I say what I feel,

You’re gonna come charging at me,

And my life will end in one...second (whispered)

Chorus: Going in for the kill!

The scene before my eyes is so surreal,

I’ve got someone threatening to take their love away

What can I do to make you stay?

Are you going in for the kill?

‘Cause I thought that if I said what I feel,

You’d promise me that you wouldn’t leave,

How could take your love from me?

Chorus: Going in for the kill!

(Going in for the kill!)

The scene before my eyes is so surreal,

(The scene before my eyes is so surreal,)

I’ve got someone pointing a loaded barrel at me

(I’ve got someone threatening to take their love away)

And I can’t even run

(What can I do to make you stay?)

Are you going in for the kill?

(Are you going in for the kill?)

‘Cause I know that if I say what I feel,

(‘Cause I thought that if I said what I feel,)

You’re gonna come charging at me,

(You’d promise me that you wouldn’t leave,)

And my life will end in one...second (whispered)

(How could take your love from me?)
