The Mountain Goats - Heel Turn 2 lyrics

rate me

Get stomped like a snake, lay down in the dirt

Cling to my convictions,even when I get hurt

Be an upstandin' well luvd man about town

In ur child’s mind that's how it goes down

But I tried the losin' 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

U found my breaking point

Congratulations! Spent 2 much of my life

Now tryna play fair, throw my better self ovaboard

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 & years, & years

President of the fan club up there

Chokin' on his tears

Let all the trash rain down

From way up in the rafters

I'm walkin' outta 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
