Lyrics Iron Jawed Angel - Rotting Out

Iron Jawed Angel

They make me feel useless
I see her busted open on the kitchen floor
She kisses my tears and tells me not to worry anymore
What do you know about crying to the sky?
I watched her whole life pour right out of her eyes
Too many times I’ve seen her cry herself to sleep
I would’ve taken every hit if it meant she slept in peace
«My iron jawed angel don’t you cry»
The spirit of hope is leaving.
(It's leaving)
I can’t believe it.
(I hate this feeling)
She hides the fact she’s bleeding.
(She's bleeding)
I can’t believe it.
(I hate this feeling)
Now I’m asking why?
Spirit unmatched
Her face was black and blue but she’s still so beautiful
She holds me
We dance
A sea of painful memories starts to pour right out of me
I’d kill the world, I’d kill the gods just to bring her peace but when I hear
her lovely
Voice scream it brings me to my knees
I melted in her arms as she kissed me goodnight
I whispered back, «one day I’ll make this right.»
All hope is leaving.
(It's leaving)
I can’t believe it.
(I hate this feeling)
She hides the fact she’s bleeding.
(She's bleeding)
I can’t believe it.
(I hate this feeling)
Now I’m asking why?
Old man this one’s to you: you fucking coward you know you don’t
Deserve her, because in the end I know you’ll just desert her
The way you struck her just showed how much you loved her
A simple «sorry» just can’t replace what you took from her
