about

'Kinda the title track of the Reload Your Gun!-cd, but not on it because it was written eight months after the first album release. The lyrics are about a murderer who murders for the thrill of it all, and for the power being one to decide on life and death. Over and over again. It took me some time before I was satisfied with the lyrics and especially with the music, but the song was only performed at Ramirez gigs once or twice (February 23, 2008, and probably June 1, 2007). At the end of the song there’s little twin-guitar part inspired by the Swedish blackened death metal band Dissection. Their guitarist, singer and main composer (as well as a convicted accessory to murder, serving a jail time from 1998 until 2004) Jon Nödtveidt shot his brains out in August 2006, because he thought he had made enough music.'

lyrics

Once more Trouble comes a-knockin' out my door
I'm on the run with a gun like I've been before
I don't stop for no one
And nothing ever gets in my way
Step aside, or it might just end today

Chorus:
I reload my gun for the pleasure is mine
One of the few willing to cross that line
To be part of the elite that decides
Who will live on and who's destined to die

I don't murder them for their money or gold
But for the mere sight of the scene that will unfold
It's all in the hand with the gun
And it draws the line between life and death
So step aside one more time, or take your last breath

Chorus
