Lyrics

And when you slam down the hammer Can you see it in your heart?
All of the rumors keeping me grounded I never said, I never said That they were completely unfounded
So when you slam down the hammer Can you see it in your heart? Can you delve so low? And when you're standing on my fingers Can you see it in your heart? And when you try to break my spirit It won't work because there's nothing left to break ...Anymore
All of the rumors keeping me grounded I never said, I never said That they were completely unfounded
You won't sleep until the earth that wants me Finally has me Oh, you've done it now You won't rest until the hearse that becomes me Finally takes me Oh, you've done it now And you won't smile until my loving mouth Is shut good and proper FOREVER!
All of the rumors keeping me grounded I never said, I never said That they were completely unfounded
And all those lies Written lies, twisted lies Well, they weren't lies They weren't lies They weren't lies I never said, I never said
I could have mentioned your name I could have dragged you in Guilt by implication, by association I've always been true to you In my own strange way I've always been true to you In my own sick way I'll always stay true to you
