Tin Man versuri

Tin Man lyrics by The Upstart Crows

Verse 1
Blistered Hands to match the heart
It’s been a long time since these palms were soft
I’ve built a shell to protect myself
A scrap metal skin with that harlequin grin
‘Cause the world’s got a habit of ruining things
With their toxic tones and sharpin tongues
Friend or a foe who can know
So when it’s raining knives, I’d rather stay inside

Chorus
Sure, it’s safe inside
But can you call that Living
Shell Shocked & Locked Away
While you fools are grinning
Sure, there’s safety in numbers, I know
But I won’t join in

Verse 2
I’m Sick of sitting alone in the dark
Whilе this Cabin Fever’s creepin’ in
Got to shed my skin & start again
Stop chasing goals to fill thеse holes
But these problems run deep in my novocaine brain
With nothing inside but dead butterflies
There’s nowhere to go, I’m stuck where I stand
Just rusting away like another tin man

Chorus
Sure, it’s safe inside
But can you call that Living
Shell Shocked & Locked Away
While you fools are grinning
Sure, there’s safety in numbers, I know
But I won’t join in
