I love it when they wear a week's worth on their faces
I left it all at home
and took only knuckles and cold blood
take one or two for kicks
make you famous with my fists
bare boned and bear clawing like a newborn
because I would love to be broken in
I've got your back
but when that bell rings
I will not stand naked for me, only for him
then I'll begin to break you in
I've got your back
grab his collar then just swing away
six tooth smile
take my name off of the flag
I will not walk in the parade
unsung and swollen step aside
my hands are useless till they're bleeding
I've been wired for this wreck
I never chose this, I was chosen
I'm stitched and ready to be
the juggernaut behind the curtain just trust in me
I've got your back
now when that bell rings
and my fists are closed, naked
I don't care if it's your praise that they sing
I pay the bills and make a living from breaking you in
I've got your back
grab his collar then just swing away
six tooth smile
