Shrapnel

American Steel
(album: Jagged Thoughts)

jagged words are all i´ve heard
spitting shards of vitriol
jagged thoughts they´re all that i´ve got
shredding my soul

jagged words are all i´ve heard
spitting shards of vitriol
jagged thoughts they´re all that i´ve got
shredding my soul
shrapnel

true love is a thorn in its side
wasting time to smell the roses
my lover is a diamond ring
who takes a shine to a puppet
on a string of bad luck isn´t tragedy
its hardened tears are here to stay
tick tock time clock whistle stop
everyone knows you goin home dog tired
gonna wake up
exhausted to a new day

jagged words are all i´ve heard
spitting shards of vitriol
jagged thoughts they´re all that i´ve got
shredding my soul
shrapnel

wherever the wind blows
baby i´ll go head high
cause my hero is a lonely gravesite
twisting in solemn vigil of waning
light some spark in a slugging mind
and all the world is a powder keg
but i remember you when you loved freedom too
brimming young with life so wipe the tears
from your eyes
baby no one´s got to see you dying

jagged words are all i´ve heard
spitting shards of vitriol
jagged thoughts they´re all that i´ve got
shredding my soul
shrapnel

no one´s got to see you
no one´s got to hear you dying
dying.

jagged words are all i´ve heard
spitting shards of vitriol
jagged thoughts they´re all that i´ve got
shredding my soul
