Silverstein

Fist Wrapped in Blood

(Come on!)

Finish me off, follow the plan

break all the bonds, sever the ties

and now your mission is complete, find and destroy me.

torturing me, with words from your lips

filleting my skin, pulling my teeth

please forgive me for not being good enough.

Drown your sorrows in my pain (pain)

and it's something you can't explain.

when I'm choking on words you'll never say (say)

and you'll never feel the same

(Same!)

Bound and gagged, I cannot move or speak

these things I want to say, I can't explain them anyway

so if I had it all again, if I could start from the first words I ever said

I would do it all the same.

Drown your sorrows in my pain (pain)

and it's something you can't explain.

when I'm choking on words you'll never say (say)

and you'll never feel the same

Your joy is my pain

my fingers are yours to cut off

and my bones are yours to shatter in pieces.

my teeth are yours to pull out and my soul is yours to slowly rip apart.

I can't trust anyone I meet.

From now on, my chest feels more like

a fist wrapped in blood
