lirik lagu armoured man - storms
the blood pours from my knuckles as the sun rises on the road side
and i am still trying to find my way home
the cars slow and they swerve
sound their h~rns at the sight of my body bare and cursing at the dawn
and the drink in my veins stole reason from my brain
and i am filled with a rage at everything that i can’t place
the mountains look the same
the green and the grey of another day
day upon endless day
and your voice rolls around my brain like the sound of thunder coming over the hillside before rain
so let me be washed away
carry me far from everyone i know
and everything i’ve done and must become
and give me a wandering heart
and give me a wandering eye and let me wander till i no longer ask why
and i am fit to die
because my anger is my own
i carry it with me where i go
and i have darknesses and i have many storms
and you should know that one day i won’t make it home
and the first time that i felt the weight of every single second on my shoulders i was seventeen years old
blinded by the panic and the problem and the pride i hid myself from everyone i know
and i smashed up all the sunlight and the daylight from my days and curled myself into a fist into a ball
as if my future and my feelings and my fears were nothing but a blood stain on a wall
and a darkness took my brothers and my mother though it left my father be
yeah it seemed to leave him sane
so i buried all my bruises all my blushes all my basic instincts hoping i would turn out the same
and i know i look to you to take it all away i look to you to purge me of my pain
though i never really told you what it was
i was a boy and i could not explain
and i just wanted you to stay
so i told myself that misery’s a rhythm and a righteous way of living
stoicism the same as scorn
all the while
just desperately casting for some comfort for some counsel on the problem of being born
because you’re thrown into a life you didn’t ask for you didn’t choose
with a brain half built for bloodshed and a body you can’t put to use
you’re chewed up in society
stitched up in a suit
and there is no time for questions
there is no time to lose
and there are days that feel like torture
like a tunnel with the walls closing in
all the chatter of the people like a noose like thunder everything a reminder of my failure and everything i do
and the future is a trap
and the present full of pitfalls
and the past is never what anybody says it was
and the violence and the voices feeds the monster in my muscles
and my head is like a gaping wound
and i just don’t know how to share it with you
because my anger is my own
i carry it with me where i go
and i have darknesses and i have many storms
and you should know that one day i won’t make it home
so maybe i will marry you and maybe i’ll be true to you
and maybe you will see straight through every line i sell to you
i swear i wasn’t there again or i’ll have learnt by then to lie through my back t~~th
and maybe i will have to look upon the faces of our daughters and our sons and say i’m sorry i’m not the man you thought i was
and they’ll reply their mother’s eyes while weary and surprised
“don’t think we haven’t heard you cry at night”
well how can i prepare them for a world that scares me witless?
where everything is dying from our decadent indifference?
how can i make my own children bear witness to my evil, my violence, my failure, my weakness?
and how can i negotiate the nightmare of existence
and the humdrum horror of a life lived at a distance
with a patience and a piety and a puritanical persistence
will all come to nothing, there is no resistance
and maybe if you find something that you love senseless
the drumming droning dying days are so relentless
and each and everyone of us is completely defenceless
no calm, or quarter, or hope, and happiness
because my anger is my own
i carry it with me where i go
and i have darknesses and i have many storms
and you should know that i am trying to make it home
i am trying to make it home
one day i will make it home
