Wrecking Ball

Reaching for your gun you had none so you stabbed a wounded arm
 And you drank the blood of a bleeding friend
 And quit your lying face of trust and love you once offered traces of
 Knowing well you were never meaning them
 And you laughed and you danced and it let you feel fine for a while
 Hanging out with the kids who you knew soon would fall out of style
 And took your mark at dawn down a line of destruction you had drawn
 Through a town you were never welcome in
 And dug your fingers good in the cracks of the mortar steel and wood
 As you drank your cup of sweet revenge
 And you plotted and planned and you counted the days til they came
 Hiding up in your tower tuning out every fool who complained
 Its so long looking down what youre on
 If your speeches are lame and just go on and on
 If it makes you feel good you can make them feel bad
 Its an easy call
 So when nothing remains you can stand there and claim
 Youve destroyed them all
 Now all your loves a grave and every year disappears
 I heard someone mark the season you went wasting in
 To take your walk at dawn through the line of destruction you had drawn
 Through to rear your head and sink again
 Its a long way to walk when your wrong
 If you sneaking through town with your wrecking ball on
 If it makes you feel good you can make them feel bad
 Its an easy call
 So when nothing remains you can stand proud and claim
 Youve destroyed them all
 Its so easy
 Take a swing and watch them fall
 Youre a wrecking ball
