Drop that / get up Take to the streets / better lock that kid up Face full of teeth when he hock that spit up Pacing the beat like a beast Rocking the block on repeat Speak from the cut like a rush of blood Paint red on the sleeves of the ones you love Lay the sick ones down and the bells will ring Put pennies on the eyes let the dead men sing I shiver and shake the warm air cold I’m alone on my own In every mistake I dig this hole Through my skin and bones It’s harder starting over Than never to have changed With Blackbirds following me I’m digging out my grave They close in, swallowing me The pain, it comes in waves I’m getting back what I gave I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades As I waste away It traps me inside mistakes I’ve made That’s the price I pay It’s harder starting over Than never to have changed With Blackbirds following me I’m digging out my grave They close in, swallowing me The pain, it comes in waves(YEAH) I’m getting back what I gave I drop to the floor like I did before Stop watching / I’m coughing / I can’t be more What I want and what I need are at constant war Like a well full of poison / a rotten core The blood goes thin / the fever stings And I shake from the hell that the habits bring Let the sick ones down / the bells will ring Put pennies on the eyes / let the dead men sing With Blackbirds following me I’m digging out my grave They close in, swallowing me The pain, it comes in waves I’m getting back what I gave I’m getting back what I gave I’m getting back what I gave
