CRUEL HAND LYRICS

1. Lock And Key

Bound by chains Obey every word that they say to me Not only do they hold me down they manipulate the way I think Sometimes they let me free but still they hang from me Not for the world to see Trapped by the steal that holds me back Caught in the chains forever locked I’m bound they’ll say is how that I was found Free me from the pain of lock and key I’m bound by chains so strong So strong I can’t move on Keep me out in the pouring rain No shelter in your shade So cold and they made me too Not by choice but they choose you They’ll be here when I am gone Trapped by the steal that holds me back Caught in the chains forever locked I’m bound they’ll say is how that I was found Free me from the pain of lock and key If I wait for the sun to burn off this rain, then I’ll be here for eternity Can’t look to you to break my chains These chains are mine, for me to break Can’t wait for the sun to burn off this rain Don’t look to others to end your pain These chains are mine, for me to break

2. Cruel Hand

Came into this world a vulture fighting for the scraps Like a dog beat one too many times, you start to bite back Sink your teeth in the hands of the weak, vengeance you seek on those who can’t understand your pain The world will pay Can you blame him for the way he acts when he knows his future is as bleak as his past He would change it if he had the chance but at his first breath there was no chance left Not scared in the streets you roam Fear comes from the home Wondering where you fit in this world and lashing out at your own I can’t blame you for the way you think I can’t blame you Can you blame him for the way he acts when he knows his future is as bleak as his past He would change it if he had the chance but at his first breath there was no chance left Can you blame him for the way he thinks Your life was a pained experience Sometimes I wish that I could find your rage hidden in the roots of this family tree You’ve been dealt a cruel hand

3. Day Or Darkness

All he ever wanted was a family Now it’s just one of many broken dreams Nightmare to live Day or darkness So much to give, no one giving to him Now he is broken Never to be fixed He’s over throwing rocks Now he’s throwing bricks Nightmare to live Day or darkness So much to give, no one giving to him Now he’s lost it Look him in the face, tell him that he’s okay The look in his eye say’s his burning alive Burning alive So much to give, no one giving to him Now he’s lost it

4. Broken Glass

One soul cold enough to crush mine Like glass I break Don’t try to pick up the pieces You are too late Let them fall and never touch another’s hands They will cut and then will drop again This time just let them lay and walk away The one I gave my all was the one who let them fall And never touch another’s hands They will cut and then will drop again They will cut your hands, then drop again Don’t touch my past Shards of broken glass Shards of broken glass

5. Labyrinth

Labyrinth You can’t see, think, feel or hear Are you trapped in there? Your mind’s moving so fast It’s reality, you’ve lost your grasp Let us know if you’ll ever come back Come Back Upside down and inside out Don’t mind the labyrinth Nothing else seems to help Straight Jacket

6. One Cold Face

So constructive in your misfortune The mastermind of your own destruction Feeling so small They start to crawl to the shelter of shadows Cast by those bound to fall What they don’t know keeps them chained to ground Never willing to leave or even look out The look in their eye says ready to die Caught in a race for the casket to lie I see their faces everyday One thousand words in one cold face This is a vice for those who are viceless A way out from the world for those without ways out Distraction for some without ways to numb Everything that comes when under the sun This is my vice amongst other vices A means to ignore the whole world that surrounds us This is my vice amongst other vices A means to ignore the whole world I see their faces everyday One thousand words in one cold face One cold face One Cold Face

7. Rotations Of Hurt

I can’t balance the world I’m going to drop it on you And like me, you’ll run from it too I never believed the world could turn on me But that’s just how the world turns Rotations of hurt Steady rotations of hurt Once in the palm of my hand Now just on my back Crushing me to the ground until there’s nothing left I never believed the world could turn on me But that’s just how the world turns Rotations of hurt Steady rotations of hurt Once in the palm of my hand Now just on my back Crushing me to the ground until there’s nothing left I can’t balance the world

8. Dismissed

You set your standards at forever No one lives at that level A start so strong, you gave so much In no time you were out of touch Do what you want, I could care less Burn that bridge you hope to forget You knew you’d leave too but that’s just life I can’t worry about you Faces come and faces go I used to judge but now I don’t Faces come and faces go I used to judge but now I don’t I looked up to those destined to leave I respect change but I still believe Faces come and faces go I used to judge but now I don’t The ones who’ve settled are the ones who’ve lost on second thought Well maybe not Who am I to judge when you decide to go? What do I know? Nothing Nothing Nothing Nothing

9. Two-Fold

No comparisons in our lives You’ve never lived a day in your life Where I’ve been and what I’ve seen You could say the same about me but I can live with that, can you? We all have the choice to choose what we do with our lives I’ve never lived a day in your eyes No you don’t You might agree but no you don’t relate No you don’t You might agree but no you don’t relate Sometimes I wish that I was in your shoes doing all the things that you do that’s how you know that I am human inside I’m not afraid to question my life And I can live with that, can you? We all have the choice to choose what we do with our lives I’ve never lived a day in your eyes No you don’t You might agree but no you don’t relate No you don’t You might agree but no you don’t relate No you don’t No you don’t relate No you don’t No you don’t relate I wish you could but you can’t Is that sad? No you don’t relate

10. The Bottom (Of Munjoy Hill)

When your soul is trampled Life dismantled What was once in your hands, now too much to handle You begin to rethink everything that you are Inside yourself is a constant war You don’t see the face that you saw before Inside yourself is a constant war Too low to live Is this my time? Been back and forth from the other side Pushing me deeper into my black hole Twisting my world, spinning out of control I’ll pull you from the bottom If you pull me from the bottom We live amongst leeches We adapt to survive “I’m not one of these creature” I say time after time If I slip away slowly and I notice the fall Will your fierce hand of reality bring me back to it all?
