Glory

I was born when they took my name
 ♪
 When the world turned wicked, when I joined their game
 But I turned and fought them
 Like you always knew I'd do
 I sat and dreamed at the foot of your bed
 You split my skull and reached inside my head
 And pulled out the pictures I'd been wishing I'd forget
 And you stitched me up then
 And wiped the blood from off my chin
 ♪
 Now I sit on the rooftop's edge
 The muddy street beneath my swollen head
 Trying to forget you
 To believe we've never met
 And the sky is wrecked, full of rotting clouds
 From chimney mouths spewing smoke around
 And I can't stop coughing
 My lungs just won't calm down
 But still I keep grinning
 As the blood from my face stains the ground
 ♪
 A bird, caught in the wires
 Bleating for help I can't provide, I'm not that big
 I hope for the best but nothing changes, I'm sorry
 But I was blessed with bad eyes
 There's a lot that I miss but I don't mind, I'm not that old
 I'll find out what broke me soon enough
