My Heart Is A Fist

(album: The Paramour Sessions - 2006)

I surrender,
I know I've been a pretender
You can have this guilt this misery I wear so well
I wave my flag I sound the alarm
Somebody stop me before I do any harm
I surrender
I know I've been a pretender

I'm living a dead life I'm staring into the headlights
Of a get away car that'll take me out of my mind tonight

Crash and burn s.o.s. somebody help me get out of this mess of a dead life
I'm burning under the spotlight

[Chorus:]
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will fight again
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
my soul will rise again

Take a look at these hollow eyes one last look before I say goodbye
To this candle-lit nightmare I feel like can never escape

So watch me fall from grace watch me carve my hate
In the heart of a lover I feel I can never escape my fate

[Chorus]

I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees today but you don't notice me
I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees today but you don't notice me
You don't notice me
You don't notice me
You don't notice me
I'm screaming while I pray
While I pray
While I pray
You don't notice me
I'm sick of you, God,
I am done with you...
I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees today but you don't notice me

[Chorus]
