IT SHREDS
© The Heavy Breathers (Olsen/Lawyer)

There's a tune eating through my brain,
And I can't get it out if I try,
Just the kind of song,
That sticks with you 'til the day you die.
Ripping through the fabric,
Of my deepest thoughts,
It grabs hold and won't let go,
Until my mind is caught.

IT SHREDS!
IT SHREDS!
Like a maggot in my head,
IT SHREDS!

When the drum's tattooing a beat,
On the back of my naked soul,
And guitars scream out for mercy,
From the depths of some dark hole,
It's a poisonous addiction,
That keeps me needing more,
Like something that I always wanted,
But never heard before.

IT SHREDS!
IT SHREDS!
Like a maggot in my head,
IT SHREDS!

The music hits you like a run away truck,
And drags you through the grim,
And the only way to pick yourself up,
Is to hear it one more time.

IT SHREDS!
IT SHREDS!
Like a maggot in my head,
IT SHREDS!
