O.D.'d On Life Itself

Blue Öyster Cult · The Music Of Blue Oyster Cult [2010]

How could I fool you, I rest and assure you

Take it off from here and put you on the line, yeah

Your back to the pistol and iron bullets whistle

The landscape's open and the world is mine, it's still mine.



OD'd on life, life itself

(OD'd on life itself, OD'd on life itself, the power of powers

and once luminous spell)

OD'd on life, life itself

(OD'd on life itself, OD'd on life itself, crumpled like grave cloths and

hipped to the help and you've)

OD'd on life itself



Writings appear on the wall

The curtains part and landscape fall

There, the writing's done - in blood

like a mummy's inscription and a bat-wing tongue



Well then the mouth of the cave will open up wide

Wide as the world that's mine, it's mine, it's still mine



So don't you fear the trade in life

Life loves force but force loves life, yeah

This wedding by heaven was made up in hell

With the victim as bride and life, life itself



OD'd on life, life itself

(OD'd on life itself, OD'd on life itself, the power of powers

and once luminous spell)

OD'd on life, life itself

(OD'd on life itself, OD'd on life itself, crumpled like grave cloths and

hipped to the help and you've)

OD'd on life itself



OD'd on life, you OD'd on life itself

OD'd on life, you OD'd on life itself

OD'd on life, life itself...
