tin man - the upstart crows lyrics
[verse 1]
blistered hands to match the heart
it’s been a long time since these palms were soft
i’ve built a sh*ll to protect myself
a scr*p metal skin with that harlequin grin
’cause the world’s got a habit of ruining things
with their toxic tones and sharpened tongues
friend or a foe who can know
so when it’s raining knives, i’d rather stay inside
[chorus]
sure, it’s safe inside
but can you call that living?
sh*ll*shocked & locked away
while you fools are grinning
sure, there’s safety in numbers, i know
but i won’t join in
[verse 2]
i’m sick of sitting alonе in the dark
while this cabin fevеr’s creepin’ in
got to shed my skin & start again
stop chasing goals to fill these holes
but these problems run deep in my novocaine brain
with nothing inside but dead b*tterflies
there’s nowhere to go, i’m stuck where i stand
just rusting away like another tin man
[chorus]
sure, it’s safe inside
but can you call that living?
sh*ll*shocked & locked away
while you fools are grinning
sure, there’s safety in numbers, i know
but i won’t join in
