Drilled A Wire Through My Cheek Lyrics


Blue October Drilled A Wire Through My Cheek


I try to stay on top of you
To hold your body down
Your shaking seems to hinder
Every grasp that I have found

Moving every inch around you
To defuse your private bomb
I stretch myself surrounding
And protecting you from harm

I use a wallet for your mouth
So when you bite you will not bleed
I drilled a wire through my cheek
And let it down and out my sleeve

And now you're pulling out the best of me
Yeah which never ever comes
This wires all thats left of me
And its hooked within my gums
Within my gums...

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

Its proof to show that I bleed for this
And I'd cut myself to shame
To get to know this masochist
Who has stolen my first name

Pretending he's a teacher
Holding all my weight at ease
Yet the teacher seems to split in two
Destroying both his knees

And now crawling I position myself
Below your broken wings
I lift your feathered left arm
Where you hide your heart from me

I never noticed it was swollen
With a touch of brutal pain
I never knew a heart could live inside
The rust from all your rain
All your rain...

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

I didnt think to bring a wash cloth
Or to rub away the dirt
Myself and I we share
This barely beating heart of hurt

And when the hurt comes theres an argument,
A fight to save a smile
A small attack on human tears
To dry them for a while

A dream we all should count on ;
Yeah a vision I believe
Where confidence is found
Attached to wires on our sleeve

And where loneliness is history
Told to pack his shit and leave
And where guidance is a fortune
Told to help in time of need

And where crying isn't secret
It's the art of how we grieve
And lessons are the key
To every goal I will acheive
I will achieve

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]
So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk screaming]

So drill it, so drill it
So hard
I feel it
[Kirk sreaming]
