Aim! Fire! Scream! Aim! Fire! Over the top over the top Right now it's killing time Over the top over the top Right now it's killing time Over the top over the top Right now it's killing time The only way out is to die God has spoken through his conscience As I scream aim and fire The death toll grows higher God has spoken through his conscience As I scream aim and fire The death toll grows higher Scream! Aim! Fire!
