I'm climbing out of the hole that Ive been digging Throwing out all the blue prints I have drawn up for the safe house I stashed away enough food for forty days, gallons of water, first aid, and propane, And some wine to entertain I'm always planning for the worst I signed my will right after birth I've got my eulogy rehearsed I fall to pieces and I get weak in the knees When I think about eternity Have I been led astray? Feeling like they forgot me He had the right name but the wrong street I'm pulling nails out from the coffin I'm gasping for air My eyes are full just like the moon I've got a silver bullet stare The holy grail that I was taught Was fiction but the fact is that it's not In communion with my thoughts The vultures circle overhead Hanging like halos for the dead SongtexteBut I'm not suited for one yet I fall to pieces and I get weak in the knees When I think about eternity Have I been led astray Feeling like they forgot me He had the right name but the wrong street I'm a number in a lottery Life's a boardwalk game god rigged to cheat As the snow falls all along the peaks My minds an avalanche I'm digging through to reach All the things Ive tried to shove down deep My minds an avalanche I'm digging through to reach If I could run, but with its speed I'm bound to be buried here underneath A tidal wave triggered to teach That life on an island isn't what it seems I'm cutting off my toes just so that I can spite my feet I fall to pieces and I get weak in the knees When I think about eternity Have I been led astray Feeling like they forgot me He had the right name but the wrong street Aus Songtexte Mania
