[Intro, Instrumental] [Verse 1] Same sitch, new chrome, new town… Sirens scream me to my feet… Kick out of the cube, bounce to the bar Pick up a bottle on the way to the street Count seventeen in the mag… Ready to earn my wage… Hardwired to perform… This dirty city, my nightly stage! [pre-chorus] UH! Let’s go ! [chorus] Call me a hero or Call me a disease Running on the edge like twenty thirteen Didn’t ask for approval, It’s nothing that I need Wires plugged into my skull, neon in my dreams [Verse 2] The air I breathe is poisoned, The streets breathe with me reading the daily news In still wet graffiti New Carthage or Night City The rules stay the same Be careful, don't get too close Chooms fall, never know their name [pre chorus] UH! Yeah! [chorus] Call me a hero or Call me a disease Running on the edge like twenty thirteen Didn’t ask for approval, It’s nothing that I need Wires plugged into my skull, neon in my dreams [Interlude] I might know you all night Or for a muzzle flash Either way, either sight I’m expert at the task Today you, tomorrow me Bullets come eventually Cold, face down on the street I’ve always known my destiny [Verse 3] The day I draw too slow I won’t pretend to be surprised Laying in the cold comfort That I never comprimised Til then all I need are shells Liquid lunch, a coffin’s keys Lay down in a lucite box Wake up again and hit repeat [chorus] Call me a hero or Call me a disease Running on the edge like twenty thirteen Didn’t ask for approval, It’s nothing that I need Wires plugged into my skull, neon in my dreams Call me a hero or Call me a disease Running on the edge like twenty thirteen Didn’t ask for approval, It’s nothing that I need Wires plugged into my skull, neon in my dreams [Outro, instrumental]
