So it starts with some blood and a picture frame
Got our teeth, got our mouths, got our hearts, got our backbones
"Broken legs never wander" is what I heard you say
Smash the knees, break the feet, break the feet, smash the toes in

String 'em up, cut 'em down, oh, it's all the same
Call it hell, call it life, call it luck, call it nothing
But you know we're not that stupid, we won't wait
So call it off

Close my eyes and come lay me down
Patch the teeth marks along my bones
Close your eyes and come lay you down
I'll count the scars along your knuckles

And we might be missed then, or we might be forgotten
But it's okay, it's okay

Nothing ventured, nothing gained, or it's what they say
But you've done well by sitting idle
There is no fixing you this time
Some lines crossed are not forgiven

String 'em up, cut 'em down, oh it's all the same
Call it hell, call it life, call it luck, call it nothing
But you know we're not that stupid, we won't wait
So call it off
