Hold back Prevent yourself from the monster Where is The innocence we preached Lay down And tell me what you think of me Don't laugh And kick me out from here. Because the gods that I see Are damned and dismissed I never fit in the mould A thorn in my side A grid in my mind That's all I need for the road. Take me Where the sun never sets Save me While you can hold me strong Wave me Like a flag in case of danger Sit back and wait behind the door. Because the gods that I see Are damned and dismissed I never fit in the mould A thorn in my side A grid in my mind That's all I need for the road. Pinch my arm Pinch again Darkness is a summer storm and it has gone away Because the gods that I see Are damned and dismissed I never fit in the mould A thorn in my side A grid in my mind That's all I need for the road
