CRUEL HAND LYRICS

1. Pissing-Spitting

They went their way and I went mine
Never followed the pipers path
Losing sand in my hour glass
Pissing in the wind spitting at the rain
Pissing in the wind spitting at the rain
It's what I'm gonna do I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know, I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know, I know, I know
No care for futures
No care for pasts
The reaper blade comes quickly
His dull blade falls oh so fast
Pissing in the wind spitting at the rain
Pissing in the wind spitting at the rain
It's what I'm gonna do I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know, I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know
It's what I'm gonna do I know, I know, I know
Pissing. Spitting. Pissing, spitting it's what I gotta do I know, I know, I know

2. Battery Steele

Where does your entitlement come from?
After all, we're spawned from the same cunt
Here to die on this rock anonymous
All kings with no thrones.

3. Why Would I

Why would I need to sell my soul?
Devil in me and so much more
Why would I need to sell my soul?
Devil in me and so much more
Why would I need to sell my soul?
Devil in me and so much more
But I have many names or I go by one
Slander you and the ones you love
Ones you love
Why would I need to sell my soul?
Devil in me and so much more
Why would I need to sell my soul?
Devil in me and so much more
Clipped his wings for only sin
Without you he is nothing
He took me hand when no one would
He understood when no one could
He gives me praise when no one should
Devil in me
Why would I need to sell my soul?

4. The Negatives

Five lives were all we had to give
So we're living in the negatives
Breathe in and force myself to live
Give life to lifeless limbs
We live, we live in the negatives
Some days I think that I might thaw
Then I freeze and take away it all
Breathe in force myself to crawl
These limbs have frozen off
In the negatives
We live, we live in the negatives
I'm cold, so cold below zero
I'm cold so cold below

5. Scars For The Well-Behaved

Ripped out, hammered down
Born a nail but this is not my house
Life's so dull we used a blade
Scars for the well-behaved
Hey Hey Hey Hey
Ripped out, hammered down
Nailed down, Ripped out
They used a blade
Razor blade

6. Heat

You can't confuse me with your helter skelter
Try to soften the blow with things I already know
You can't diffuse this with your helter skelter
Smile, nothing's wrong
Shed this weight it weighs a ton
Don't need your charity
I have my clarity
Things that I couldn't see they are now so clear to me
I'm not faking. How could I fake this?
The point you missed is one worth making
You can't confuse me with you helter skelter
Try to soften the blow with things I already know
You can't diffuse this with your helter skelter
Smile, nothing's wrong. Shed this weight it weighs a ton
When you see me instead of speaking
Let's nod our heads and call it even
Look straight ahead and see through me
You're a vision not worth seeing
Helter skelter

7. Unhinged-Unraveled

I watch you choke on holy smoke
You're at the end and you hold that rope (unhinged)
And when you bleed it's all for greed
The sickness that's inside of you is inside of me
I am a beast, a human being. I'm everything I said I'd be
I want to watch you unravel
Watch you dismantle yourself with emptiness
Limb from limb unhinged
Open your mind with self decline
Slow and sweet, that's the kind, that's what I mean
I am a beast, a human being
I'm everything I said I'd be
I'm everything I said I'd be
I want to watch you unravel
Watch you dismantle yourself with emptiness
Limb from limb unhinged

8. Monument Square People

Hell bent on 'time and temp'
Shadow cast on lives darker than death
Was on the 'west', I'm out on the 'east'
'The End' are the rocks on the beach
Failure-Can't hold my head high
On a search for something less
I found myself with emptiness
Was on the east. I'm out on the west
Home is a friend that couldn't give me his best
(Portland is the friend that couldn't give you his best)
Failure-can't hold my head high
Protest till I make things right
Redemption inside
Failure-can't hold my head high
Protest till I make things right
No thrills just pills. Just pills and a face to fill
And only one of these can ease this beast
Was on the west now I'm out on the east
Revenge is nothing but the rock at your feet
Failure. Protest. Redemption inside

9. Vigilant Citizen

I am just a vigilant citizen
In a house that no one is living in
Take away this ball and chain
Left to roam this desolate plane
Acceptance is a medicine
Vigilant. I fell asleep at the wheel
Citizen. Nothing left to feel
Vigilant. Gently put to sleep
Citizen
I am just a vigilant citizen
In a bed that everyone's pissing in
Take away this box and gain
Identity outside the frame
Accept and be accepted
Vigilant. I fell asleep at the wheel
Citizen. Nothing left to feel
Vigilant. Gently put to sleep
Citizen. Euthanize driver seat
Vigilant citizen

10. Gasoline

Lit a match
Burnt my bridge
I built a wall
Try to come in
I bit my tongue
Now I'm bleeding
Words you never could agree with
No one said the world had ended
Another day another confession
I spoke my mind
For no reason
No one cares
No one to listen
Does it matter
What I believe in
It's a temporary place and we'll all be leaving
No one said the world had ended
Another day another confession
If I smell like gasoline then I had to burn the ones who burned me
No one said the world had ended
Another day another confession

11. Still

Another year and still I see
I see prying eyes that still see me
Still telling me I'm not alone
Still throwing rocks, nobody's home
Still dragging all your weight
Don't ask you can't relate

12. Cheap Life

Wrong or right. No insight. It all depends on how cheap is your life. Good or bad. I once knew that. When life wasn't cheap but that was all in my past. Cheap Life. Now you're living this curse birth after birth. Cheap Life. Born ruthless, no worth and useless. Expensive taste, life is cheap do unto them before it's done to me. Cheap Life. Now you're living this curse birth after birth. Cheap Life. Life is cheap. Do onto because they've done unto me. Wrong or right I lost that site. It all depends on how cheap is your life. Good or bad I once knew that. When life wasn't cheap but that was all in my past.
