Lyrics Go For The Throat - The Elected

Go For The Throat

You think you’re so cool
You think you’re so hot
You’ve got the go for the throat eyes
You’ve got your trouble
All of the hard times
No one could touch you in your prime
Cooked up some weird dreams
Escaped a small life
You heard the kids scream every night
Now you’re on late night
You’re doin' co-writes
And you just left the rest behind
So you did what you knew
A show of what you’ve been through
And now you’re so cool
You think you’re so fine
You’ve got that go for the throat mind
You’ve got your trouble
All of the hard times
You know you should have seen the signs
So what’s the long face?
Nothing but dead eyes
I couldn’t miss 'em if I tried
Now that you trampled
All of the good times
You know I should have seen the signs
You’d think for all you’ve been through
You wouldn’t be such a brute
And now the bodies are piled so high
You couldn’t hide 'em if you tried
And I wish I was you
I wish I had what you do
'Cause I’d be so cool
I’d be so fine
I’d have that go for the throat mind
And all the trouble
Yeah, all the hard time
No one could touch me in my prime
And if the gravity should ever bring you down
If we ever meet right back on the ground
Remember
That you’re so cool
That you’re so fine
Yes there are few who would deny
I know that somewhere
Deep dark down inside
You’re still filled with that light
You think you’re so cool
You think you’re so hot
You’ve got those go for the throat eyes
You’ve got your trouble
All of those hard times
No one could touch you in your prime
