lyrics

With your back against the wall, you suddenly ain’t so tall, the cracks begin appearing,
When you’re facing it all alone, ‘cos you’re making it on your own, you’ll hear the crowds all cheering,
When you’re trying to play it cool, but suddenly you’re the fool, it’s all that you were fearing.

I hope, I get to see you take a dive, and fade out and fall down and fail life,
I hope, I live to see you crash and burn, and face up to all that you deserve.

With your back against the wall, you’re ready to take a fall, it’s time for you to face it,
You know you brought this on yourself, by shitting on everyone else, bad guys don’t always make it,
So now it’s time to pay, for living your life this way, you had your chance to change it,
Now your back’s against the wall, you’re ready to take a fall, too late for you to save it.

I hope, I get to see you take a dive, and fade out and fall down and fail life,
I hope, I live to see you crash and burn, and face up to all that you deserve.

Sorry Gents, I am late. But it is far away from Dallas to Pig City 😂 Schweinfurt, Germany and without Bandcamp I would never found you maybe. I love your great music. Do you think it is time for a new album? Favorite track: Cosmic Rain! mannes66
