Snipers, Scorpions, Hangmen, Oh My.

by Alter Ego For Rent   Jun 7, 2008


The snipers came out with scorpion grins
Tenacious and transparent, she's calling you out

There's chaos in your eyes
Burning down the bridge of your nose
Until the heroes for heartbeats came thundering through

They bottled your sanity, kept it close
They bottled your voice, kept it closer

Calling a hangman's noose a safety line won't keep you alive
I can't keep you alive
I can't keep you alive

And the asphalts gonna love you
You with your disasters and a bad case of nerves

And oh the ocean's gonna miss it's favorite victim
You with your shredded lullabies

If it hurts, do it again
If it hurts, do it again
If it hurts, do it again
If it hurts...
