Lyrics

[Verse 1]

No man left behind

Pillow to nowhere

Buried alive

Paying my dues in the morning light

Superglued, wired and I'm tongue-tied, wrestling ghosts

Pillar to post

Heart in a headlock

Going for broke

Losing my cool in a silent fight

Playing with fire in the twilight, wandering home

[Chorus]

Nothing brings me back to life

Like walking out into the firing line

Call it lost or losing sight

Nothing brings me back to life

[Verse 2]

Six feet under the sheets

Deeper and deeper, gettin' the creeps

Chewing on tongues with tender teeth

Losing my count of the heartbeats, rolling the dice

Night after night

Masking the vices, disguising a crisis

Viva Valhalla, baby, in my dreams

Trouble-bound devil swept me off my feet, I was numb

[Chorus]

Nothing brings me back to life

Like walking out into the firing line

Call it lost or losing sight

Nothing brings me back to life

[PostChorus]

Nothing brings me back to life
