Treading and Trodden Songtext

von King 810

And I'm walking round town again
And I'm looking for a best friend
One that I could build a nest in
One that I could leave some sex in.

If you could feel how this hurts
You would kill yourself first
Hacked my skin all up again
And I'm hanging out with dead men!

I'm haunted by a memory
Or a dream about a better me.
Before I had an enemy
Before they wanted my neck from me:

BOW DOWN, PRAY TO YOUR GOD AND
KNEEL DOWN, DON'T PICK FROM THE GARDEN AGAIN!
I'VE BEEN TREADING AND TRODDEN
TRYING NOT TO TRY AND KILL MYSELF ALL OVER AGAIN!

And I'm walking round town again
And I'm looking for a fortune
One that I could buy the world with
I would trade it for my woman.

If you could feel how this hurts
You would kill yourself first
And if I'm shot down in the street again
Let me bleed to death if you're a friend

I'm haunted by a memory
Or a dream about a better me.
Before I had an enemy
Before they wanted my neck from me:

BOW DOWN, PRAY TO YOUR GOD AND
KNEEL DOWN, DON'T PICK FROM THE GARDEN AGAIN!
I'VE BEEN TREADING AND TRODDEN
TRYING NOT TO TRY AND KILL MYSELF OVER AGAIN!

BOW DOWN, PRAY TO YOUR GOD AND
MY GIRL, DON'T EAT FROM THE GARDEN AGAIN!
I'VE BEEN TREADING AND TRODDEN
TRYING NOT TO TRY AND KILL MYSELF OVER AGAIN!
And God said, 'Let us make man in our image"
Then the web(?) was the lord taken from the man
He made into a woman
She shall be called a woman because she was taken out of man
If you fall, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue(?)
"The woman you put here with me.
She gave me some fruit from the tree."
"Woman, you must continue to be punished.
For the sin of Eve.
And I'm walking round town again
And I'm looking for a best friend
One that I could build a nest in
One that I could leave some sex in.
If you could feel how this hurts
You would kill yourself first
Hacked my skin all up again
And I'm hanging out with dead men!
BOW DOWN, PRAY TO YOUR GOD AND
KNEEL DOWN, DON'T PICK FROM THE GARDEN AGAIN!
I'VE BEEN TREADING AND TRODDEN
TRYING NOT TO TRY AND KILL MYSELF OVER AGAIN!
BOW DOWN, PRAY TO YOUR GOD AND
MY GIRL, DON'T EAT FROM THE GARDEN AGAIN!
I'VE BEEN TREADING AND TRODDEN
TRYING NOT TO TRY AND KILL MYSELF OVER AGAIN!
