Anesthetic For The Amputee

Anesthetic For The Amputee
couldnt save the savior from savoring
if this life now hurts you, I'm sorry
can i hold a candle to enduring
taken in a way that you say
say you can feel it
refusal of the anesthetic for this amputee
cut off parts and cut up pieces
lord i know you're looking down won't you give me the strength
to cut these hands free, cut a river through my veins
drowned out by this contradition

beaten back from your position
comforted by some fucking superstition
i wish i could hold on with one hand
but you knew i couldnt do it
refusal of the anesthetic for this amputee
cut off parts and cut up pieces
lord i know you're looking down won't you give me the strength
pull that trigger, put that bullet through my
i never understood why you wouldn't want to think
but now i understand perfectly
its just the anesthetic given to the amputee
cut off parts and cut up pieces
lord i know you're looking down won't you give me the strength
pull that trigger, put that bullet through my brain
