Shinedown – KILL YOUR CONSCIENCE lyrics
[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 1]
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 2]
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 2]
While you're scratchin' at the gates
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

[Interlude]
(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
