start, Of bloody nails and broken hearts, And you keep tearing them apart, With bloody nails and broken hearts. You left a trail right from the start Of bloody nails
on a bed on nails I'll lay you down and when all else Fails I'll drive you like a hammer on a Bed of nails Bed of nails, bed of nails I'll drive you like
You take a hammer, you get some nails, you build a home Find a woman put that woman in that little home But without love, true, true love in that home
lie there for hours in the chilly cold marshes If the ladies were squirrel's with high bushy tails I'd fill up my shotgun with rock salt and nails
(Instrumental)
Kind of hard Hard to see When you crawl On your hands and your knees With your face In the trough Wait your turn While they finish you off Don?t know
Nice and high and far apart Just like they said I built this place with broken parts Just like they said You chip away the old version of you You'd be
Am I still tough enough? Feels like i?m wearing down Is my visciousness Losing ground? Am I taking too much? Did I cross a line? I need my role in this
She's mostly gone Some other place I'm getting by In other ways Everything they whispered in our ear Is coming true Try to justify the things I used
The sky is painted black The smoke pours out the stack One hand upon your heart One hand behind your back You train us how to act You keep the fear intact
Hy-per-pow-er
You What you looking at? Head down Too late for that What you want What you get Know your place Don't ever forget And this is not my face And this
Down on your knees You'll be left behind This is the beginning Watch what you think They can read your mind This is the beginning I got my mark, see it
Gunfire in the street Where we used to meet Echoes that are beat When the bass goes "bomb" Right over my head Step over the dead Remember what you said
I let you put it in my mouth I let it get under my skin I let you put it in my veins I let you take me from within They tell us what we can and cannot
I pushed the button and elected him to office He pushed the button and he dropped the bomb You pushed the button and could watch in on the television
