verse
Chewed the bone down too low
Got fed on tea and sympathy
Blew the sail like the wind
What a fool I've been to have
Laid so low -- for so long -- so low
verse
Drew the blade way too slow
Was shackled by your honesty
Made a mess I, guess I, should have known
That life was lust and liberty
chorus
Laid, so low -- for so long -- so low
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
And when your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
