Dead Man's Victory
I met the devil at the crossroads Cause this broken back And hollow bones Can hold no more These hollow bones Brief intermissions Between splintered tongue A defunct barter system I swear I got the best of him Oh I know I've done a lot of wrong And my mistakes, they'll catch up with me But I'll be damned Oh I'll be damned If I'd ever change the life I lead Cause I've got this noose that I call time its gripping tighter at my neck And with each day Oh with each day I feel that chair Slip Keep keeping on Oh I keep on SongtexteCarve my name in hearts Cause this marble is ever changin' Take all that you can grab And when your arms can hold no more Let's see if it fills the hole In empty chest in your empty soul Hold strong My gritted teeth And when you've ground your teeth down to the gums Hold strong Aus Songtexte Mania
