Dead In The Water
(专辑: 88 Keys & Counting - 2008)
[Chorus: x2] What did you want from me? You're knocking on doors trying to wake up the
beast. Head full of thorns, you wanna settle the
score, you wanna level the
board. You wanna level me down. I
find it funny how your heart don't work, and that tattooed diamond on your chest spells hurt. How predictable. Just another shark in the
bloodstream. Swimming it's way upstream to figure out where love sleeps and kill it like it must be stopped. I
don't see the
reason in your logic, I
just understand the
plot, and if I
don't find it outta here I
swear to God I'll pop from the
needles you've been sticking in me trying to throw me off when I
fly straight. Just another meal for the
vultures, picked into pieces and buried under the
boulders. Until the
last cracked molar is found, I'm just a
victim with the
soul torn out of him and shot to the
ground, without the
glory. Broken and that's the
way that you like it with the
war horns fired up, stimulating excitement and I
can see why the
devil put you in ranks but should have asked you what you wanted before you flashed me the
fangs, you've got a
problem. [Chorus: x2] What did you want from me? You're knocking on doors trying to wake up the
beast. Head full of thorns, you wanna settle the
score, you wanna level the
board. You wanna level me down. I've been living in this winter you've provided me. Eating all the
pages of this history inside of me. For what? Just so you can run around the
graveyard, scream into the
heavens and sink the
boat that you came on? I've taken all the
pain I
can, and plan on jumping off this shit before I
lose it and never know who I
am. Before this vessel ever gets in sight of land, I'm a
dive into the
waters underneath it and take my chances at hand until it drowns out. You've got a
perfect way of killing me, an angel in appearance with a
smile like a
guillotine and I
don't think that you can ever change. Pain is your nicotine, fighting me is the
flame and it stays that way. Cause everything is frozen in your steps, and this blade is a
trophy to your unexpected (guess?), you're a
monster, and I
can smell it rotting in your teeth. Just hope that you can figure out what you've been looking for and leave, you've got a
problem. [Chorus: x2] What did you want from me? You're knocking on doors trying to wake up the
beast. Head full of thorns, you wanna settle the
score, you wanna level the
board. You wanna level me down.
