what it takes

• sozleri soyledir bu guzel sarkinin:
  
  there goes my old girlfriend, there's another diamond ring
  and, uh, all those late night promises i guess they don't mean a thing
  so baby, what's the story? did you find another man?
  is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
  when you don't look back i guess the feelings start to fade away.
  i used to feel your fire
  but now it's cold inside
  and you're back on the street like you didn't miss a beat, yeah
  
  chorus:
  tell me what it takes to let you go
  tell me how the pain's supposed to go
  tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
  without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life to the toss of the dice?
  tell me what it takes to let you go.
  
  yeah
  girl, before i met you i was f.i.n.e. fine
  but your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart's been doing time
  you spent me up like money, then you hung me out to dry
  it was easy to keep all your lies in disguise
  cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes
  
  chorus
  guitar!
  
  tell me that you're happy that you're on your own yeah, yeah, yeah
  tell me that it's better when you're all alone
  tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
  tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
  tell me you ain't dyin' when you're cryin' for me
  
  chorus
  
  tell me what it takes to let you go
  tell me how the pain's supposed to go
  tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
  without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life to the toss of the dice?
  tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice
  no no no no 'cause i don't wanna burn in paradise
  ooo let go, let go, let go,
  let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go,
  let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
  i don't wanna burn, i don't wanna burn
• overkill'in 2007 yılında çıkardığı immortalis adlı albümünün ikinci parçası ve gayet de gaz, sözleri de şöyle;
  
  train-train burning like a absolute,
  drunk with the love of the fire
  brain-brain burning and the leather boot.
  kicking like he never gets tired...
  i saw the coming of the faster than light speed,
  burning track, conventional fool
  wham-crack-bam-slap
  far out of sight speed,
  hammered like a kicking mule
  
  here we come now, here we go
  
  need you now, no mistakes
  stand up tall and give me,
  what it takes
  
  hit the ground running,
  i was faster than the light speed
  burning before my feet hit the floor
  damn machine gunning
  kept me far out of sight feed,
  pull the shades and lock all the
  1-2-3-door
  
  i saw the coming-coming, into the void
  and i was drunk with the love of the fire
  was a knock-down, drag-out
  never fail me boots
  i was kicking like i never get
  1-2-3-more
  
  need you now, no mistakes
  stand up tall and give me,
  what it takes
  need you now, i'm not afraid
  stand up straight and kick me
  if that's what it takes
  
  little hot, a little cold
  a little young is growing old
  a little prick, a little bold,
  never did what he was told
  i'll tell ya why you're feeling bad,
  a little played, a little sad
  a little more you never had,
  a little sane is going mad
  seems you had enough of me,
  enough or more eternity
  i'll tell you what i'm going to be,
  i'm going to be your misery
  and when you feel you're going to break,
  say your prayers for goodness sake
  we're going to see what you can take,
  we're going to see now what it takes
  count it as you did before, count it out 2-2-3-4
  count it when you're going to break
  count it out it's what it takes
  count it when you're feeling bad,
  count it when you're going mad
  count on me for goodness sake,
  count on it and what it takes
  what it takes
