Crucified - SHIM

They got coffins for sale on the edge of LA

They come in satin drenched, spirit broken double wide

Half for your body, half for your mind

Trying to make sense of senselessness was recklessness

Till I finally realised I’d spent half my life

Trying to alchemize truth outta lies

Oh no, here we go

A nail in my hand

Guess I should’a known

Now that I’ve been crucified

Buried and brought back to life

Give me your best shot

What you got?

I hope you said your goodbye’s

Cause I’m going off the rails this time

Never getting off this ride

Strung on a wire

Burned in the fire

And I’m still alive!

Time flies when you’re under the gun

And now the store front windows are showing someone that I shoulda, coulda,

woulda been

When I wander the streets alone and I’m high on adrenaline

They did a good job selling me on that old fashioned 21st century lie

Mutated from a 2nd century lie

Too tasty to pass, too perfect to last

Oh no, here we go

A spear in my side

Guess I should’a known

Whoah, Whoah, Whoah

I was crucified, but I’m still alive!
