    "DO OR DIE" LYRICS
    Kill to thrill intoxication
    Out of control
    Fight or flight euphoria
    Wrecking the soul
    Heels up palpitation
    Scarred for life blown apart
    Immaculate sedation
    Shot up right into the heart
    Fearing the worst
    It's everything you need
    Adrenaline burst
    Dependence guaranteed
    Chorus
    Do Or Die
    Show no weakness
    Don't live a lie
    Bridges crossed and not burned
    Do or die
    On your own terms
    Taking it all
    Do or die
    Rattling in concentration
    Sharpening till dulled
    Burning light asphyxiation
    Taking it's toll
    Scraping by with consolations
    Of the highs and lows
    Orchestrated for the set-up
    Bang and on we go
    Detonation's a blast
    Loaded front to back
    Stimulation won't last
    Descending through the cracks
    Chorus
    All for one
    One for them all
    Do or die
    Take’em by storm
    Stand or fall
    Do or die
    Say a prayer
    Don't hold it back
    It's no twist of fate
    Resistance to the distancing
    Sell it to them straight
    Lying is the child of fear
    It's going to come to blows
    All is fair in love and war
    Detonation's a blast
    Loaded front to back
    Stimulation won't last
    Descending through the cracks
    Chorus

      Sorry ,pal. But the drummer on this vid is Christopher Williams (Accept). Nevermind Scott Travis is also my favorite drummer
