The unforgiven
The unforgiven
bbcode
The unforgiven
Killing time
The unforgiven
The unforgiven
new blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known

a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub the unforgiven

you labeled me
i'll label you
so i dub the unforgiven

Killing time

Sweet Savage's song

sound of gunfire comes through the night, 
killing and hatred, it's a terrible sight. 
reports come in of the heavy attack, 
message is seen, we're moving back. 
 
preparations are made for the journey back, 
it's a survival, supplies are packed. 
no more nights in this eternal hell, 
destination is simple, we move out. 
 
killing time-you left from the line. 
killing time-your turn to kill. 
killing time-what do you say? 
killing time-aaha, killing time. 
 
and he knew what he needed to keep us alive, 
no time for cowardice, kill and survive. 
like a killer kid with a switchblade knife, 
nasty word, he'll take your life. 
 
the silence is over, they attack again, 
killing and hatred drive me insane. 
reports come in of a heavy attack, 
message is seen, we're moving back. 
 
killing time-you left from the line. 
killing time-your turn to kill. 
killing time-what do you say? 
killing time-aaha, killing time. 
 
sound of gunfire comes through the night, 
killing and hatred, it's a terrible sight. 
reports come in of a heavy attack, 
message is seen, we're moving back. 
 
and he knew what he needed to keep us alive, 
no time for cowardice, kill and survive. 
like a killer kid with a switchblade knife, 
nasty word, he'll take your life. 
 
killing time-you left from the line. 
killing time-your turn to kill. 
killing time-what do you say? 
killing time-aaha, killing time.

The unforgiven

Demo Version

new blood joins this earth
and quikly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
the young man struggles on and on he's known

a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through in what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub the unforgiven

you labeled me
i'll label you
so i dub the unforgiven
