Harms Way

(album: Volume 8: The Threat Is Real - 1998)

Here comes the biggest asshole that the whole world's ever seen
Watch as things turn to something I never, I never meant to be
Call it a side effect of my arrested development
Here with you I'm trapped, I'm trapped, out of my element

I tear through all this wreckage
Wreckage you left when you dropped the bomb
Is there something worth saving
Or do I act, I act like nothing's wrong
The lesser of two evils gives me, gives me nothing at all

Lust and madness, murder and mayhem
My whole life's been about playing
It's all so surreal
Maybe that's why I touch but can't feel

Sitting pretty, as I sit up straight
Trying to find means to an end I move into harms way
I move into harms way

I see my face in the mirror
I feel my feet but I can't seem to walk in my shoes
When it hurts I feel closer to you
Closer than you ever knew
And the bottom line is knowing
I will die and the worms will eat me
The bottom line is knowing
Ain't no one else I can be

Lust and madness, murder and mayhem
My whole life's been about playing
It's all so surreal
Maybe that's why I touch but can't feel

Sitting pretty, as I sit up straight
Trying to find means to an end I move into harms way
Running steady, smile on my face
Trying to find means to an end I move into harms way
I move into harms way

Sitting pretty as I, running steady as I, sitting pretty as I sit up straight
Running steady, smile on my face
Trying to find means to an end I move into harms way
I move into harms way
