The Heat - Ten

I don’t expect you’ll understand

The cruelest jokes at love’s command

They cut me with the things they said

I walked away believing them

They made perfect fool of me

They laid a trap I didn’t see

Though I was shaken critically

Through my veins runs Nitro-glycerine, yeah

I can’t control it

I can’t condone defeat

I can’t console it

I will never understand the heat…

I watched it fall and melt today

Yet even now some scars remain

I felt you dry my tears away

The silence reigns as laughter fades

I’m brocking out the lies brigade

For next time I’ll wear battle grey

When love and anger steel the blade

The deepest cuts fall harder when repaid, yeah

I can’t control it

I can’t condone defeat

I can’t console it

I will never understand the heat…
