The Two-Armed Man
by Ben Kweller
You were the fire in my eyes but I wanted to burn you out.
With a hit and a miss you know what I'm all about.
(Woah, woah, woahhh, ohhh)
With a hit and a miss you know what I'm all about.
(Woah, woah, woahhh, ohhh)
Staring you down, I see the fear in your eyes.
I ain't scared of your fists or your mother-freaking lies.
Burn it down (eyyuh)
I ain't scared of your fists or your mother-freaking lies.
Burn it down (eyyuh)
You're not trying (I swear I'm trying)
Please stop trying my hand
(Who are you kidding?)
Please stop trying my hand
(Who are you kidding?)
I know it's hard to say, but it's the truth
Cause everything you throw my way is the same
Cause all I do is waste my time with you.
When all is said and done,
Will I be the one who's left alone again? (oohhh)
Now I'm stuck here wasting, wasting away.
(I, oh, let's go! )
Cause everything you throw my way is the same
Cause all I do is waste my time with you.
When all is said and done,
Will I be the one who's left alone again? (oohhh)
Now I'm stuck here wasting, wasting away.
(I, oh, let's go! )
Everybody says that you're on top of the world,
But I know the truth.
You're a sick sad son of a gun
And your right hand's a one-way ticket to hell.
Ready? Go!
But I know the truth.
You're a sick sad son of a gun
And your right hand's a one-way ticket to hell.
Ready? Go!
I was a friend of you,
You were a friend of mine.
But I battle on!
Yah, trick!
You were a friend of mine.
But I battle on!
Yah, trick!
