Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
[Verse 2]
And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
[Verse 3]
And the message coming from my eyes
Says, "Leave it alone"
[Verse 4]
Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
[Verse 5]
And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
That ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do
[Verse 6]
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says, "Find a home"
[Verse 7]
Yeah, boy
[Verse 8]
I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
[Verse 9]
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the Lord
Words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more
[Verse 10]
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me, "Go back home"
[Verse 11]
Yeah
