Kneel on Nails

clear the gap, hit the ceiling, bed-to-bed, dead skin peeling
the rhyme was broken, a line from closed,
crossed out twice, unsaid and choked
hold now or let it go, cowards leading with their chest bones
the rhyme was broken, a line from closed,
crossed out twice, unsaid and choked
i've been building up your name with gold
so listen when it hits the ground
the feeling of being alone, you'll never know
for you, i'd kneel on nails and never give a reaction
we all sign deals, some cash it in on the backs of the cast offs
the cool kids got you at thirty, living owed over earning
but worst of all, when you need a call,
who'll be there singing the same song
how's life? what's new? nothing wrong here, how 'bout you?
buried down and glossed over, crack your neck and hold me closer
i've been waiting to hear the quote, see how the eyes play off the mouth
the feeling of being alone, you'll never know
for you, i'd kneel on nails and never give a reaction
we all sign deals, some cash it in on the backs of the cast offs
i'm down and waiting out the fight but i can't wait for too long
i could just close my eyes or give it back ten times
have we not grown up since school? timid me and gutless you
building up your name in gold, listen when it hits the ground
for you, i'd kneel on nails and never give a reaction
we all sign deals, some cash it in on the backs of the cast offs
