Show Me How To Live

[theexpatriate]

In with the early dawn,
moving right along,
I couldn't buy an eyeful of sleep

And in the aching night,
Under satellites,
I was not received

With the stolen parts
A telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest

to put my mind to bed
this ringing in my head
is this a cure,
or is this a disease

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live

And in the afterbirth,
In the quiet earth,
Let these things remind me

You thought you made amend,
You better think again,
Before my row defines you

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live

And in your waiting hands
I will land
And roll out of my skin
And in your final hours i will stand
ready to begin
ready to begin
ready to begin
ready to begin

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live
Show me how to live

Show me how to live
Show me how to live
Show me how to live
Show me how to live...
