[ti:Drilled A Wire Through My Cheek]
[ar:Blue October]
[00:11.50]I try to stay on top of you
[00:13.60]To hold your body down
[00:16.05]Your shaking seems to hinder
[00:18.74]Every grasp that I had found
[00:21.36]Moving every inch around you
[00:23.80]to diffuse your private bomb
[00:26.64]I stretch my self surrounding
[00:29.02]And protecting you from harm
[00:31.84]
[00:32.28]I use a wallet for your mouth
[00:34.21]So when you bite you will not bleed
[00:37.19]I drilled a wire through my cheek
[00:39.36]And let it down and out my sleeve
[00:42.42]And now you’re pulling out the best of me
[00:44.75]Yeah which never ever comes
[00:47.41]This wire is all that’s left of me
[00:50.06]And its hooked within my gums, within my gums
[00:53.53]
[00:53.79]Chorus
[00:54.12]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[01:03.63]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[01:14.07]
[01:14.36]I hate to show a need for this
[01:16.28]I cut myself to shame
[01:18.82]To get to know who this masochist
[01:21.70]Who’s stolen my first name
[01:23.81]Pretending he’s a teacher
[01:26.44]Holding all my weight at ease
[01:29.15]But the teacher seems to split in two
[01:31.96]Destroying both his knees
[01:34.23]and now crawling I position myself
[01:37.12]Below your broken wings
[01:39.39]I lift your feathered left arm
[01:42.25]Where you hide your heart from me
[01:44.69]I never noticed it was swollen
[01:47.41]With a touch of brutal pain
[01:49.74]I never knew a heart could live inside
[01:52.98]The rust from all your rain, all your rain
[01:55.97]
[01:56.28]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[02:06.21]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[02:16.64]
[02:16.89]I didn't think to bring a washcloth
[02:18.61]Or to rub away the dirt
[02:20.92]Myself ＆ I we share
[02:23.58]This barely beating heart of hurt
[02:25.94]and when the hurt comes there’s an argument
[02:28.98]A fight to save a smile
[02:31.85]A small attack on human tears
[02:34.11]To dry them for a while
[02:36.40]A dream we all should count on
[02:39.22]Yeah a vision I believe
[02:41.70]And where confidence is found
[02:44.52]Attached to wires on our sleeve
[02:47.02]And where loneliness is history
[02:49.67]Told to pack your shit and leave
[02:52.38]And when guidance is a fortune
[02:54.83]Told to help in time of need
[02:57.78]And where crying isn’t secret
[03:00.13]It’s the art of how we grieve
[03:02.89]And lessons are the key
[03:05.34]To every goal I will achieve, I will achieve
[03:09.05]
[03:09.51]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[03:19.46]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[03:30.32]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
[03:40.51]So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay
