Lyrics

[Intro]
Are you ready to rock?
Rock 'n' roll!
[Verse 1]
Pardon me, I'm only bleeding
But you cut me to the bone
My imperfections have reduced you
To a lowly animal
[Verse 2]
A part of me was introduced to you
Then it walked right out the door
And tonight, you're probably feeling
Like a human cannonball
[Verse 3]
It used to be that loving you
Was easy, unrestrained
And now I'm only bleeding
But I'm loving only pain
[Verse 4]
Pardon me, I'm only bleeding
But you cut me to the bone
And tonight, you're probably feeling
Like a human cannonball
Written by: Gibby Haynes, Gibson Jerome Haynes, Jeffrey D Pinkus, Jeffrey Scott Coffey, Paul Leary Walthall
