AMERICAN STEEL - IT'S TOO BLOODY ANYWAY lyrics

rate me

I shatter everything when i want to see my

mind i'll pick the pieces up when i get the

time but there isn't enough glue only this

social lubricant between me and you to

stop the friction you've got to learn to

whisper if you want people to listen gotta

learn to laugh through the harshest conditions

as we cry while we all get christened

out hearts are broken our eyes are smashed in

our minds are tired and we come and go alone

regret's in the back of my mind

i'm too busy wasting time got nothing to do,

i'll wince when i think of you

regret returns, a wise teacher but i never learn

laugh all you want but don't cry,

cuz we're

too young to know we're old enough to die

it's too bloody anyway

it took 35 years to kill himself

one moment to take control of his life poetryless

the angels steal away the gems hoarding them in agonized prose

and gaudy catholic clothes so many ghosts

can just wisp away i'm still haunted by

count the years with rosary beads thank

mary for god speed our hearts are broken

our eyes are smashed in our minds are tired

and we come and go alone
