I brought a pen to a knife fight I'm writing you off I'll aim my fist like a gun sight Do it myself so it's done right I'm twisting your words Back into blueprints and battle-lines
I never asked to be the villain But if the shoe fits I'll wear it I'll grin and I'll fucking bear it Just so you know I'd walk for miles on burning coals That's how the story goes
Cause I've been waiting by the Backdoor A deadbolt keeping me at bay Cause I've been Yea I've been Sick of taking high roads So I'll set fire to the front porch The flames will funnel you my way Cause I've been Yea I've been waiting Patiently waiting with some bad blood
Let's get the fuck out if dodge The hero's hanging from his soapbox in a rusted garage. As panic spills on the streets You claim you wanna die together Just to make ends meet
And I know And I know that the guilt will catch up The more that I struggle The more I get stuck I'm starting to stumble It's quicksand I'm fucked So I'll sink to your level
Seems like white noise and static is all that I hear Feels like the devil is taking the wheel He's testing my mettle, I'm testing his steel With my foot on the pedal
Cause I've been waiting by the Backdoor A deadbolt keeping me at bay Cause I've been Yea I've been Sick of taking high roads So I'll set fire to the front porch The flames will funnel you my way Cause I've been Yea I've been waiting Patiently waiting with some bad blood
Paper tiger Despite it's frame Can't withstand the wind and rain Paper tiger Burning bright Flames reveal it's harmless bite
Cause I've been waiting by the Backdoor A deadbolt keeping me at bay Cause I've been Yea I've been Sick of taking high roads So I'll set fire to the front porch The flames will funnel you my way Cause I've been Yea I've been waiting Patiently waiting with some bad blood
