Bed of Nails |
| I can walk the bed of nails |
| I’m not the only one |
| But some, they cannot walk the jagged line |
| Callous, concentrating |
| For nails are sharp as lies |
| I run the jagged line |
| From years and years of practice |
| I know just how to stand |
| Alone with perfect balance, hand in hand |
| Prepared with boards and hammers |
| And several bags of nails |
| I could build a wall to lean on |
| Roof above my mind |
| I can see you’ve got your own plans |
| Please don’t drive your nails into this heart of mine |
| I can walk the bed of nails |
| Grin and bear the pain |
| But some, they cannot deal with all things |
| Always sacrificing |
| For lies are sharp as nails |
| And all the pain it brings |
| Sometimes I just pretend that all the lies are true |
| And I know I might depend on you |
| But if my concentration breaks |
| I’m washed away with pain |
| And then my feet begin to bleed upon my only bed of nails |
| And I’m stuck here in the middle of a sea of lies |
| Inside my bed of nails |
| From years and years of practice |
| I know just how to stand |
| Alone with perfect balance, hand in hand |
| Prepared with boards and hammers |
| And several bags of nails |
| I could build a wall to lean on |
| Roof above my mind |
| I can see you’ve got your own plans |
| Please don’t drive your nails into this heart of mine |
