You spoke But the words were stuck behind great walls of smoke A bloody hand came out on my neck it choked But I listened anyway 'Cause I had nothing else to say So let's talk, huh But hold on for me to do my lines of chalk 'Cause the storyline is twisted and so dark But I'm like an animal 'Cause I have nowhere else to go And I'm no stranger to the lonely road that's long As ever as it is narrow Oh, and I will bite my tongue until it bleeds and says nothing Why do ya cry so loud? When I'm beside you with A blanket and a fire Don't go your own way I'll be the painter That hangs you up on My gallery But you say That your back is mine so why not break it anyway? And I yearn for when I come into that sacred space Where my legs aren't tangled and I'm free And I'm free, and I'm free, and I'm free Oh, and I'm no stranger to the lonely road that's long As ever as it is narrow Oh, and I will bite my tongue until it bleeds And says nothing Why do ya cry so loud? When I'm reside you with A blanket and a fire Don't go your own way I'll be the painter That hangs you up on My gallery
