Lyrics:
all of the glass, it shatters
as (if) it ever mattered
your hands worn and calloused
from climbing the ladder
you fired a shot, a shot
then you fired another
then a month went by
nothin to discover
it’s time to end it
find another premise
I remember the days when
you were such a menace
and I saw your face passing by
you were riding a train
hanging off the side
hair was wet from the rain
impatient, indifferent
key nose for bullshit
to have and to have not
trying to keep stoic
unbridled, unfettered
April-to-December
In the Summer, the colour
comes out of the heather
you are wild as the ocean
total fluke, blue whale
got an operation
you’re down at the hotel
and it works every time
it works every time
“meet me ‘round back no more waiting in line”
holding a pay stub
I thought that you gave up
thought you had been tamed
still undefeated
smiling and bleeding
credit to your name
your name, your name, your name
I beat my head against the wall for two weeks and now all your records sound a lot better to me
this is just a band
this is not a religion
his is my final sacrifice
this is my crucifixion
and we all want our idols to live our fantasies
it’s a nightmare to be someonewho never goes to sleep
I will not die for your sinsI will not solve your problems
I just give you the meansto make you think you forgot ‘em
holding a pay stub I thought that you gave up
thought you had been tamed
still undefeated, smiling and bleeding
credit to your name
holding a pay stub
I thought that you gave up
thought you had been tamed
still undefeatedsmiling and bleeding
credit to your name
your name, your name,
your name
