lyrics

This is not the sweet Kentucky sunshine I and mine remember, but bless your heart for the weight I felt; like the motor was running on my 'divine surrender'. And this is not the bleak but certain shipwreck that I felt was mine to render. I guess it's not a point I'm trying to make, it's an attempt to hold my temper. So here's to getting more out of it, while the getting's still good. Here's to dragging heavy hearts.
'Cause you've got to know when to put the dog down.
You've got to wear your smile like a plastic crown.
They're going to tie your wrists to the chopping blocks,
and they're going to make you watch.
And this is not the monster that I made it out to be - an exaggeration. It eats your heart, but everything and everyone must end its own starvation. So build the room around the bomb. Kill to save yourself, and make a liar out of me.
