Ties That Bind

(album: Gravity's Rainbow - 1993)

Anger shakes the house of cards
Loving cup upon the bars
We bend the truth to help us thru the night
Temper thrown against the wall
Shatters like an empty glass
Nothin can save us from our own selves tonight

Anger is a mighty sword
Vengence is our own reward
Love goes blind one eye at a time
Gunne cut away from the ties that bind
Hey hey

There's an edge within my voice
Helps me win when I should lose
We pick and choose our weapons carefully
Words are twisted like a fist
Behind our backs no slight-of-hand
No battle ever ended with a kiss

Anger is a mighty sword
Vengence is our own reward
Love goes blind one eye at a time
Gunne cut away from the ties that bind
Hey hey

Anger shakes the house of cards
Loving cup upon the bars
We bend the truth to help us thru the night

Anger is a mighty sword
Vengence is our own reward
Love goes blind one eye at a time
Gunne cut away from the ties that bind
Hey hey
