You tried to spit in the eye of a dead man's face. Attacked the ways of a man not yet in his grave. But your hate was over all too soon. Because nothing is over, and nothing's through.
So pain told you to take her. Well I learned to accept that feeling. 'cause I found how to numb it. If only for just a short while. I'd get so high, I'd forget my own name.
Can you hear their cries?. Nowhere the children run to hide. Crimson rivers flow down hills, atone our ills. And woe to all her songs of love. . A farewell to arms.
I bite the hand 'cause this hands feeds off me. Devoid of emotion, it lives to cheat. Ignorance is bliss, and respect I gave you. Friend you did claim this.
Well I look at justice in a different light. I been to jail, it didn't make me right. Try and conform but won't be deaf, blind, dumb. Been beaten down, just harder I've become.
I am only nothing, I am only this. I am just a man with his two fists. You have asked forgiveness. You have asked respect. Only something that you did forget.
