lyrics

You sir, you sir are a wicked man
You broke the law and right withstand
You will I defy
Craven, craven wretch you've got to pay
The debt you must repay today
And blood's the currency

You say you live by the sword
Pause yet, for swords can be broken
You say you live by the sword
Pause yet, or you will be broken

Mad dog, rabid, go on paw the ground
You snarl fierce but no one's around
It's just you and I
I said heel bitch, listen to my lullaby
Sleep is come into your eye
As my blade sings goodbye

You say you live by the sword
Pause yet, for swords can be broken
You say you live by the sword
Pause yet, or you will be broken

And upon you may a plague fall

You say you live by the sword
(You will fall, yes you will fall)
Pause yet, for swords can be broken
(You will fall. Yes, you will fall)
You say you live by the sword
(You will fall. Yes, you will fall)
Pause yet, or you will be broken
