Bring The House Down

(album: Lament For The Numb - 1995)

Don't you cut the coolest figure?
Even in your darkest hour
You cut all the way
Then you try hard to be alone

You don't have to try round here
It just doesn't become you
You re-invent yourself
Then you try hard to make it home

You bring the blessed house down
And if everything fails, it fails
You bring the blessed house down
And if everything else fails you walk

Don't you want to bend my ear?
Especially now you bleed profusely
You cut all the way
When all around is blood and bone

All the doctors cry 'round here
But you feel it doesn't become you
This from an amputee?
Still you try hard to make it home

You bring the blessed house down
And if everything fails, it fails
You bring the blessed house down
And if everything else fails you walk

Your wheels are jammed between the cobblestones
The traffic is light
Pull over!
Citizen's arrest!
I can stand to see you like this

Don't you cut the coolest figure?
Don't you bring the house down

You cut all the way
You cut all the way
You cut all the way
