Straitjacket Songtext

von Marc Martel

I'm a danger to myself
I'm a danger to myself
Every flag of every nation
Waves another sweet temptation
I'm a danger to myself

Got an angel back at home
But the devil in my bones
Sees a royal feast of plenty
Take what I got comin' to me
I got an angel back at home

She keeps my hands tied safely behind me
I never thought that giving up my heart
Could free my soul
No waking up cold
With no stranger beside me
Tonight I take the warm embrace
Of my straight, straitjacket

Now bouncing of the walls
And it doesn't hurt at all
No amount of medication
Justifies the devastation
I'm a danger to myself

When I'm dying on that bed
Well there won't be no regret
Save me from the skies of bruises
A man becomes just what he chooses
I won't feel no regret

She keeps my hands tied safely behind me
I never thought that giving up my heart
Could free my soul
No waking up cold
With no stranger beside me
Tonight I take the warm embrace
Of my straight, straitjacket
Straitjacket

Let the old men complain
About their ball and chain
If it wasn't for that woman
Lord, I swear I'd go insane

She keeps my hands tied safely behind me
I never thought that giving up my heart
Could free my soul
No waking up cold
With no stranger beside me
Tonight I take the warm embrace
Of my straight, straitjacket
