(Linden/Powers). . Stand up and take it like a man. You're spitting out teeth and sinking in the sand. Crawling on your knees through the promised land.
You became one of the lonely. When all your heroes turned to dust. Stirring up ghosts of courage, baby, they seem so far away. You pick up the pieces and you move along.
There's a storm raging over the city. Lightning flashing, cars racing everywhere. In the distance you can hear the sirens. screaming. And the thunder wakes a dead man with its.
Im ugly, Im lazy. Im always there to take the blame. Im a drag but youll never find out. Just push me around and Ill walk away, walk away. . Im a genius, I cant get straight.
Once there was a miner. who held down his job. 'til one day he died from. the fate of his God. Now his wife she did mourn him. 'til the collectors came around.
