Head In A Vice (clean)

Picked you up when you were down
Moved you right out of town
Cleaned and fed you, healed your scars
Did I maybe go too far?
All an act, you dirty rat
Two-faced - that's a fact
Back in the gutter, no more to give
This ain't how I want to live
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, I took your advice
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, you didn't think twice
Rot in your vomit, sleep on the ground
I was fooled, you lying cow
You said you loved me, I asked you how?
Not such a bright spark now
Shaking, trembling, not sleeping at night
Why didn't you treat me right?
Cheated, lied - messed with my head
I gave you love, I gave you my bed
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, I took your advice
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, you skinned me alive
Over you now, can't help you no more
Back in your hole, you dirty
Goodbye to you, have a good time
As for me, I'll be just fine
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, I took your advice
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, you didn't think twice
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, you bled me dry
Tears in my eyes, my head in a vice
Oh, you skinned me alive

The jury's out
Eyes are all on me
Bargain or plea
They cut me down
Given the third degree
They still don't believe
The deal is done, no turning back
Heading fast down a one way track
Boned and rolled
Waiting on a lifeline
Boned and rolled
Deeper than the last time
Boned and rolled
Habit of a lifetime
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Never took a warning
Boned and rolled
Innocent till proven
Boned and rolled
Fell for the illusion
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Exit the fray
I've been set free
Pressure released
Your tale grows old and time goes by
Don't back down when the stakes are high
Boned and rolled
Heading for the big time
Boned and rolled
Dancing on a landmine
Boned and rolled
Everything a reason
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Shelter drawing nearer
Boned and rolled
Things are looking clearer
Boned and rolled
Falling into rapture
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
All my demons
They're the reasons I'm this way
Boned and rolled
Yes I'm tired
Always wired, every day
I've been found out but I won't leave
Clinging on by the skin of my teeth
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Running through a red light
Boned and rolled
Always feeling uptight
Boned and rolled
Spoiling for a fist fight
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Waiting for the payback
Boned and rolled
Purpose now I don't lack
Boned and rolled
A target I can aim at
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled
Boned and rolled

Well, that's the chance you take
The longer life makes you wait
Before you're over the hill
Move in for the kill
When the sun don't shine
You'll be the first in line
Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Ooooh, oooh, oooh
You chose this life for yourself
And now you beg for my help
Wipe away the sweat
Each bead might help you forget
When the stars align
You'll be the first in line
Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Ooooh, oooh, oooh
Can you feel it?
Pouring down the drain
You don't know where you're going, don't know what you're fighting for
Can you feel it?
No one else to blame
And nowhere left to go
There's nowhere left to go
All this song and dance
Yes, you had your chance
Now your future is set
Time to lie in your bed
When the crown is mine
When the crown is mine
When the crown is mine
You'll be the first
You'll be the first in line
You'll be the first in line

You say you won't and then you will
Your time is up - I can't stand still
Now I've got my thinking straight
It's a simple tale of fate
I cannot lie, I do not know
I stayed high - you sunk so low
And you know we can't pretend
That now's the same as then
And the walls are closing in
It may be time to start again
I cannot lie, I do not know
I stayed high - you sunk so low
And you know we can't pretend
That now's the same as then
Always something
Coming round again
Always something
Just a case of when
I cannot lie, I do not know
(Now's the same as then)
I stayed high - you sunk so low
(Now's the same as then)
And you know we can't pretend
(Now's the same as then)
That now's the same as then
I cannot lie, I do not know
(Now's the same as then)
I stayed high - you sunk so low
(Now's the same as then)
And you know we can't pretend
(Now's the same as then)
That now's the same as then
The same as then
The same as then
The same as then, as then, as then, as then
Now's the same as then
Now's the same as then

Feel the heat burning down
Dig in deep, no hanging around
Every morning, a shot in the arm
Flames are flying, you come to no harm, no, no
The bells are ringing, you can't hear a sound
Eyes open, an ear to the ground
Friendly fire, hit on the head
End of the road, still seeing red
In the heat things can get out of hand
No-one will win so you take what you can
Mother Mercy looks up to the sky
Soldiers on, a tear in her eye
He watches Ripken hitting for home
Standing ovation, he runs alone
In the heat things can get out of hand
No-one will win so you take what you can
What you saying?
Stringing me along
I can't write no protest song
What you doing?
Making me mad
The last chance was the best that you had
Take it to your grave now
Lying down, feeling blue
Nothing to live for, nothing to do
Go out, feeling fine
Made a move, way out of line
In the heat things can get out of hand
No-one will win so you take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
Take what you can
