[Intro 2]

[Solo 1]

[Verse 1]
D5
Justified obliteration
No one cares anymore
The Messiah or
Mass murderer
No controlling who comes
Through the door
A culture made of coverups
Will leprosy
Touch their flesh?
For backroom meetings
And rendezvous
The vultures have
                 A5
Come home to nest

[Chorus]
Ab5    F5            D5 A5
   The clock runs out
Ab5    F5          D5 A5
   The weakest link
Ab5  F5           D5 A5
   A deadly strike
Ab5    F5       Ab5     G5
   The threat is   real!

[Verse 2]
D5
See the burnished images
Of a crest fallen agency
Violent conditioning
Caused the nature of the enemy
Your terminal lack of vision
Blinded eyes see no light
A chronic lack of perspective
                              A5
Their cancer now eats us alive

[Chorus]
Ab5  F5        D5 A5
   A fatal shot
Ab5  F5            D5 A5
   A lust for blood
Ab5    F5       D5 A5
   The final act
Ab5    F5     Ab5 D5
   The threat is  real!

   A lust for blood
Ab5    F5       D5 A5
   The final act
Ab5    F5        G5
   The threat is real!
