An old man cuts his face
|
But not because the razor's dull
|
It's from his hands shaking
|
From the lack of what he's taking
|
Not like an old man's memories
|
His wrongs are still and forever
|
|
Hoping mistakes will fade with the sun
|
But no surprise, they never do
|
Hoping mistakes will fade with the sun
|
They never do at Hell's Motel
|
|
Lord, please spread my wings
|
I want to fly away
|
I don't want to die on the vine
|
Lord, please smile on me
|
I don't want to live forever
|
But I don't want to die on the vine
|
|
Never talks about the past
|
How he could hold a scalpel
|
Mighty hippocratic oath
|
How he sold himself for naught
|
He lived when they lived
|
And he died when they died, too
|
|
Accepting the new sacred calf of the pagans
|
As we all die on the vine
|
Accepting the new sacred calf of the pagans
|
That's life in Hell's Motel
|
|
Oh Lord, please spread my wings
|
I want to fly away
|
But I don't want to die on the vine
|
Oh Lord, won't you smile on me
|
I don't want to live forever
|
I just don't want to die on the vine
|
|
And tonight he'll close his eyes
|
Hoping the sun will rise again
|
And all will be forgiven
|
And this was all just a dream
|
But the walls to the motel are thin
|
And next door someone's getting beaten
|
|
Tears for the unknown are seeds that are sown
|
And we're all on the run
|
Tears for the unknown are seeds that are sown
|
This ain't life at Hell's Motel
|
|
Hell's Motel
|
|
This ain't life
|
In Hell's Motel
