lyrics

SOME MEN CLIMB OVER WALLS, SOME MEN SEND THEMSELVES TO WAR. BUT I CANNOT EVEN LIFT MY HEAD TO LOOK AT YOU IN THE EYES. SO GIVE ME A KNIFE TO CUT YOU WITH, IM TOO WEAK TO DO. SO GIVE ME A KNIFE TO CUT YOU WITH, IM TOO SCARED TO DO IT. AND HORSES MUST SOMETIMES BE PUT DOWN. I HAVE TIED THEM TO A FENCE WITH MY BARE HANDS. AND I HAVE PRESSED MY NOSTRILS UP TO THEIRS AND I HAVE SMELLED THE SCENT OF FEAR. SO GIVE ME A GUN TO SHOOT YOU WITH, IM TOO WEAK TO DO IT. SO GIVE ME A GUN TO SHOOT YOU WITH, IM TOO SCARED TO DO IT. AND MY CONSCIENCE IS AS CLEAN AS A BLADE: I CANT SEE IT, I CANT SAY IT. AND MY BLOOD IS THE SAME AS YOUR OWN: I CANT TELL WHOSE IS WHOSE WHEN ITS ON ME AND ITS ON ME AND ITS ON ME. AND I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW TO COPE WITH MY BODY AROUND ME LIKE A ROPE THAT HOLDS ONTO ME UNTIL I CHOKE. AND I CANT EVEN LOOK YOU IN THE EYES.
