hrottlerod – A Fly on the Fault Line

I heard a man knocking at my door
Pulled back the blinds and I kept my eyes closed

I let a man in my house today
Sang the sweetest song that I had ever heard
Killed the smile away

I met a man took his word today
Smoke into my lungs, fed by deception

I let a man shake my hand today
He told me what he thought, I kept my fingers crossed
Killed the smile away
Shouldn’t have let it go

Kept looking for a message, something that I knew
So crocked and plain, he told me things I never knew
Shouldn’t have let it go

I let a man cut my throat today
Wiped down the blade and don’t be afraid he said
I saw a man pissing on my grave
All that is gone has now killed the smile away
Killed the smile today

It’s easy to point at just after the fact like a riot
Tired and quiet, a fly on the fault line
A fault in condition
This weakness watch it start spinning
A change in opinions, a different turn this time
A fly on the fault line
