I've bled myslef a river red Well, I'll bleed for you no longer Time will not be kept my master My riddled body shakes The fear inside me breaks The arrowed tongue beckons me Crawl... Enslaved my bitter soul A hundred knives cutting, stabbing My brittle bones Ground in the grease of addiction I've seen the end Through many miles of long dead road Leading nowhere Have I stayed for too long? Hold fast the moorings break So frail the chains You can't heal the wounds I've spent years on So callous in our shame Blind to what I hide Grip the wheel, lead footed Straight to my demise No sympathy when the addict dies I've seen the end Through many miles of long dead roads Leading nowhere Beneath the river bed A scarlet rive red Flowing cold from the hole in my head The lives that we make are only a prelude to our graves A shell of a man takes his shot Just one shot to the face I'm blind to what I need My resolve fast fading Stomach knots Evisceration My god can't you set me free? Lord, end this tragedy I've seen the end Through many mile of long dead roads Leading me nowhere Beneath the river bed A Scarlet river red Flowing cold from the hole in my head My exit in red Grant peace to me
