Lyrics Bruce Dickinson

Bruce Dickinson

Meltdown

Hey, you wait - cringing in the dark

You create what you always fear

A puppet of hatred, dishing out poison

You use me for bait (bait) - your begging bowl of lies

Chain letters of sniveling compromise

I can smell the difference

Your truth and your fiction

You and your twisted convictions

Were you my friend when I belonged?

Were you my friend when I was strong?

Were you my friend when I was weak?

Were you my friend when I was crawling, calling...

Out of my head?

Cold, like your blood

The snake is always cool (cool)

When things get tough

You slither on the ground

You cover up your tracks when I'm around

(laughs)

(yeah)

It's over now, my friend

Your dog has had it's day

It's payback time for what you had to say

You're stuck with the life you made

Stuck with the plans you made

Stuck with everything you are

Were you my friend when I belonged?

Were you my friend when I was strong?

Were you my friend when I was weak?

Were you my friend when I was crawling, calling...

Out of my head?

Everything's gonna happen now

Everything's gonna happen now

Everything's gonna happen now

Everything's gonna happen right now

Were you my friend when I belonged?

Were you my friend when I was strong?

Were you my friend when I was weak?

Were you my friend when I was crawling, calling...

Out of my head?

Crawling (crawling), calling (calling)

Out of my head (head)

Crawling (crawling), calling (calling)

Out of my head
