[Verse 1]
I love you so, wanna throw you from the roof
The pressure builds, wanna put my hands through you
I'll squeeze you tight until you take your last breath
Loving you to death, loving you to death
[Pre-Chorus]
The pressure's rising I won't make it through tonight
This love immortal is an assassin's delight
Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat
And when its time for you to die
I'll let you know
[Chorus]
Detonate me (Shoot me like a cannon ball)
Granulate me (Kill me like an animal)
Decapitate me (Hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (Free the animal, free the animal)
[Post-Chorus]
Free the animal
Free the animal
Free the animal
[Verse 2]
I love you so I'm putting you in quicksand
You take your chances when you kiss the hitman
The animal's inside of this infinite jest
Loving you to death, loving you to death!
[Pre-Chorus]
The pressure's rising I won't make it through tonight
This love immortal, is an assassins delight
Just blow me up or run me down, or cut my throat
And when its time for you to die
I'll let you know
[Chorus]
Detonate me (Shoot me like a cannon ball)
Granulate me (Kill me like an animal)
Decapitate me (Hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (Free the animal, free the animal)
Detonate me (Shoot me like a cannon ball)
Granulate me (Kill me like an animal)
Decapitate me (Hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (Free the animal, free the animal)
[Bridge]
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful pain baby, pour acid rain on me
Kill me with your loving
Kill me with your loving
I'll slice you and dice you like sugar and spice
I'll do all that you want me to, I'll beat on the beast in you
I'll kill you with my loving
I'll kill you with my loving
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful pain baby, pour acid rain on me
Kill me with your loving
Kill me with your loving
I'll slice you and dice you like sugar and spice
I'll do all that you want me to. I'll beat on the beast in you
I'll kill you with my loving
I'll kill you with my loving
[Chorus]
Detonate me (Shoot me like a cannon ball)
Granulate me (Kill me like an animal)
Decapitate me (Hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (Free the animal, free the animal)
Detonate me (Shoot me like a cannon ball)
Granulate me (Kill me like an animal)
Decapitate me (Hit me like a baseball)
Emancipate me (Free the animal, free the animal)
[Outro]
Free the animal
