Lyrics
I did a terrible thing When I monkey-wrenched your circuitry And when they finally got to me I had built a monster worse than me And far worse than you
And I have become such an ungrateful man - Just to steal those words you whispered out And I snickered in between The check point, the boot hill, the ass in me Says some things still best left unsheathed Or out come the knives
So, retire to your ant hill Or cover tire tracks And learn to choke it back And when they get to you, they'll see I did a terrible thing With a sober mind
Make no mistake; I just couldn't stop the hand But when you're happy and you're safe You'll do anything to keep it that way
So, do you need the baseball bat Or do you need something elite? Do you need that to feel safe? Do you need that to feel safe?
(For example) Last night I took my sharpest blade And I cut my tent another five inch slit To make sure I get away
And when our weary heads Hit our sleeping bags The brutal honesty Can tend to spill out, and me I like to whisk you all away - Whisk you all away With my terrible mind
And when they finally get past All of your once tightly seriesed The check, the point, the charlies
And when we finally And when they finally get past All of your once tightly seriesed The check, the point, the charlies
And when we finally Get past their doors We can hate these sinners The way we hurt our fathers
I hear the boots up the hallway again
