Shovels come bury me Bind my hands and hold my feet Nobody's coming No one will dig me out Put the fear in blood In every pulse and ounce (Can't believe I just said that) My resolve Keep me free I try my luck Or let luck try me They think that they are winning Going in headfirst A head start for the hearse Nobody's coming Keep swinging ropes unwound (Where dangling feet are found) If they can build you up Then they can tear you down (Like a wrecking ball, man) (Set her down) A medal for each heart you bereave (Nice try!) Absolved Rest assured the pardon you seek Is nothing when something is brittle And soon crumbling (Held tight!) Hands on The hearts flatlining Why solve what's proved in a battle We'll have your head on our mantel The fittest depends on survival The rich get out quick when they're liable A point of significance (Here) Rests on a group of whims (Here) Give me a hand for a handle I'll give it back when I'm stable Write it on your arm With ink that doesn't bleed Hope it doesn't wash off before it serves its need Gotta add some sand To stall the hourglass Confetti as serrated blades and loose skin for a map (Too late) Be brave while your wound stings Clean first to scab (Too late) Nothing's ever smooth, so it's worth another stab (Too late) Cutting in then held out by arthroscopy clamps Pros and cons tallied equally
