We were waking up
There was some blood coming from my mouth
And a little fear my heart
I knew the concern you were showing
As my lover dying in thought
As my breath became so shallow and sparse

It's been a long time since then
But I could feel myself repairing
Before I began to damage myself again
And I conceded my father and my brother just as well
We cannot escape the cause of this lifestyle

My breath is a hammer
My insides are taxed like an anvil
My heartbeat's a tremor
And I have not love but for nicotine

And I was sick all of the winter and summer aren't more the same
Was always sweatstained and frozen
Yet hot like an engine
[| From: http://www.elyrics.net |]
And with sleep came the cursing
You know I... (?)
I (?) like hands clasp themselves with conviction

There is little a man can do
When his body is bent on a reckoning
These wounds can be hidden so well
Yeah (?) like a demon
And I can hear it in my voice, oh Lord
Can't you hear it too?
And it scares me almost to tears
As I know it will take you

My breath is a hammer
My insides are taxed like an anvil
My heartbeat's a tremor
And I have not love but for nicotine

My breath is a hammer
My insides are taxed like an anvil
My heartbeat's a tremor
And I have not love but for nicotine
