Heel Turn 2 Songtext

von The Mountain Goats

Get stomped like a snake
Lie down in the dirt
Cling to my convictions
Even when I get hurt
Be an upstanding, well-loved man about town
In your child's mind that's how it goes down
But I try the losing side
I don't want to die in here
I don't want to die in here
Drift down into the new dark light
Without any reservations
You found my breaking point
Congratulations
Spent too much of my life now trying
To play fair
Throw my better self overboard
Shoot at him when he comes up for air
Come unhinged
Get revenge
I don't want to die in here
I don't want to die in here
Stay good under pressure for years and years and years and years
President of the fan club up there choking on his tears
Let all the trash rain down
From way up in the rafters
I'm walking out of here in one piece
Don't care what comes after
Drive the wedge
Torch the bridge
I don't want to die in here
I don't want to die in here
