Olde English 800 |
When your aspirations |
Crumble at the feet |
Of your tormentors |
And your jaw feels like it’s breaking |
On the cold hard tile floor and you’re |
Holding onto something that does |
Farm more harm than good |
Well then you’ve reached |
The pits of hell |
And there in hell |
You’ll find the steel |
(To smash your skin until it’s calloused |
To grind your teeth down to the bone |
To tear your tongue out from its shelter |
And bleed out all alone |
When you get there |
We’ll tread heavy |
Through the boneyards and the filth |
We’ll grace the presence of the vultures |
And spit fire of the gods) |
We’ll both sit in our skin |
And hate the places we have known |
(When your back feels like it’s breaking |
And your skin has turned to stone) |
And you are standing in the fire |
And you are wishing to go back |
Well then you’ve reached the pits of hell |
You’ve reached the pits of hell |
(I took this journey through the mirror |
Took a chance to take my time |
To watch the cold hard steel of burden |
Come and break my heart and spine) |
I took a blade, a glass, a noose |
And then I smashed my mind in two |
With a bottle, pills and notion |
That I could drink my problems dead |
I reached the cold pits of hell |
And split my bones in tow |
Dragged my cold heart through the snow |
And felt the coldest burn of all |
The grief I’ve come to know |
The grief I’ve come to know |
(I took this journey through the mirror |
Took a chance to take my time |
To watch the cold hard steel of burden |
Come and break my heart and spine |
I took this journey through the mirror |
Took a chance to take my time |
To watch the cold hard steel of burden |
Come and break my heart and spine) |
I’ve got a story here to tell you |
And best you listen or grow cold |
'Cause if you choose the path I’ve chosen |
Chances are you won’t grow old |
Won’t grow old |
