Slayer — Chasing Death

[Verse 1] You can never truly see Inside the ones you know Until you've found them near The edge of self-control All I hear are lies You're lying to yourself And everything is out of control You're just a fuckin' slave of discontent I'm sick of watching you dig this hole [Pre-Chorus] Time waits—for no one Won't stop—it can't be outrun You know—that pain in your head Won't stop till the desperation ends [Chorus] You've found yourself chasing death Oblivious until the end You'll never stop chasing death [Verse 2] Innocence, common sense, I don't see the relevance Of anything that you've got to say Parasite, socialite, you're never gonna win this fight There is no fucking easy way out No easy way out [Verse 3] I know I should have seen it all coming But I had to find it out on my own A whore to incompetence, you hide behind The shadow that once was your throne Control is a discipline even when Frustration just stands in your way The throes of insanity feel just like A war inside you every day [Lead – King] [Verse 3 Reprise] I know I should have seen it all coming But I had to find it out on my own A whore to incompetence, you hide behind The shadow that once was your throne Control is a discipline even when Frustration just stands in your way The throes of insanity feel just like A war inside you every day [Pre-Chorus] Time waits—for no one Won't stop—it can't be outrun There's just—no way of knowing How long—paranoia's growing Can't stop the poison winning Please—just take away this feeling You know—that pain in your head Won't stop until the desperation ends [Chorus] You've found yourself chasing death Oblivious until the end You'll never stop until you're dead [Outro] Innocence, common sense, I don't see the relevance Of anything that you've got to say Parasite, socialite, you're never gonna win this fight There is no fucking easy way out No easy way out No easy way out No easy way out No easy way out
