Stray from the Path - Needful Things

(Here's another victim of the modern age)
(Here's another victim of the modern age)
(Here's another victim of the modern age)

(Here's another victim of the modern age)
(Here's another victim of the modern age)

This one goes out to all the soul survivors
Soldiers of war, reborn
Lord knows they can't retire
Cut 'em no slack, broken backs
Built the lost empire
That pain was forged in fire
The truce has long expired
(Are you in or in the way?)

Heaven rests in a 357, ah
Push 'em far enough lord knows they'll send 'em off
To a plane of existence
Reserved for the vicious
I'm wise to the wicked
When the wish list becomes a hit list
The curse is lifted (yeah)

Are you in or in the way?
Are you in or in the way?
Are you in or in the way?
We want tomorrow so fuck your yesterday

Cut in line, cut 'em in
Slice the pie razor thin
It's never free but it's half the price
They're getting by but they don't got the life

You got the grip but they don't love you (nah)
You tangle the truth so they don't trust you (nah)
The beast in the mirror it becomes you
Look 'em square in the eye and say fuck you (yeah)

Are you in or in the way?
Are you in or in the way?
Are you in or in the way?
We want tomorrow so fuck your yesterday (are you in?)

Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)
Are you in or in the way? (Are you in?)
Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)
We want tomorrow so fuck your yesterday

Heaven rests in a 357
Push 'em far enough Lord knows they'll send 'em
Heaven rests in a 357
Push 'em far enough Lord knows they'll send 'em
Bang (bang, bang)

When the wish list
Becomes a hitlist
The curse is lifted
The curse is lifted

Picket signs on the other side of picket fence
Weaponize, defend the defenceless

The kids are coming for you
The kids are coming for you
The kids are coming for you
Are you in or in the way?

You
(Are you in?)
Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)
Are you in or in the way? (Are you in?)
Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)
We want tomorrow so fuck your yesterday

(He did it again)
(Caused trouble, hurt someone's feelings, yet he didn't want to)
(Yes, troublesome people often are people in trouble)
