We are scanning the scene
in the city tonight
We are looking for you
to start up a fight
There is an evil feeling
in our brains
But it is nothing new
you know it drives us insane
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
There is no escape
and that is for sure
This is the end we won't take any more
Say goodbye
to the world you live in
You have always been taking
but now you're giving
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Our brains are on fire
with the feeling to kill
And it will not go away
until our dreams are fulfilled
There is only one thing
on our minds
Don't try running away
`cause you're the one we will find
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Running,
On our way
Hiding,
You will pay
Dying,
One thousand deaths
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy
Searching,
Seek and Destroy

    My Opinion:Great song for gettting me psyched. I usually listen this right before I go to play floorball with my friends. I usually play as a defender and I like to hit opponents hard by using my body (I'm 6 ft. 2 inches tall and weight 280 pounds.) as a weapon so my attitude is to seek and destory them.

    Memory:This song is one of my favorites in this album, I love to listen it, but now that it reminds me the Columbine shooting, if you read it meticulously, it is like if those guys had this song in mind when they did that. Dang :/

    General Comment:I remember watching an early live video on YouTube of this song, and James said, "this is for all the fake people all the poseur's" so maybe it's a song directed at poseur's.

    Memory:I was at Sheffield on Saturday for the most amazing gig ever, they closed with this. One of best nights of my life, so drunk, so loud, so good.

    General Comment:I would have to agree that this song is simply about kicking ass and being metal as hell.

    And i like how the people commenting in all caps can't spell.
