Lyrics
0:13Hey man
0:15Hand me down with the crooked back
0:20What's your father's name
0:21Boy you don't know where you're at
0:27Pick yourself up you don't look so good
0:29Maybe you should lay down
0:33Taught me how to fall
0:35But you never told me I was supposed to stay down
0:44Stick and move
0:45Sharpen up the knife
0:47Keep it tight
0:48Stay between the lines
0:51Make your mark
0:52Take your own advice
0:54Don't be surprised when you trip and stumble
0:57I played the fool again
1:01My old unfaithful friend
1:04Stick and move
1:05Sharpen up the knife
1:07Don't be surprised if you can't stay between the lines
1:17Quicksand color blind in the hourglass
1:24All spun out 'cause you can't stop looking back
1:30Better stay still don't you make a move
1:33What'd you hope to find here
1:37Taught me how to fall
1:38But you never told me I was meant to die here
1:48Stick and move
1:49Sharpen up the knife
1:51Keep it tight
1:52Stay between the lines
1:54Make your mark
1:56Take your own advice
1:58Don't be surprised when you trip and stumble
2:01I played the fool again
2:04My old unfaithful friend
2:08Stick and move
2:09Sharpen up the knife
2:11Don't be surprised if you can't stay between the lines
2:37Endless shot rounds
2:39No smoking guns
2:41Fizzled and faded
2:42Now back on the run
2:44My sticks and stones
2:46Tokyo smoke
2:47I played the fool 'til I started to choke
2:51My public smile
2:52My double face
2:54Half in the light
2:56Half in the shade
2:57Need some fresh air
2:59No place tonight
3:01Guess I'll stay in and continue to fight
3:04Lost trace of trail
3:06Spider web spun
3:07Pale white and blue
3:09Now I'm coming undone
3:11Play sticks and stones
3:12Three shades of black
3:14Two steps away
3:16And I can't get back
Hey man Hand me down with the crooked back What's your father's name Boy you don't know where you're at Pick yourself up you don't look so good Maybe you should lay down Taught me how to fall But you never told me I was supposed to stay down Stick and move Sharpen up the knife Keep it tight Stay between the lines Make your mark Take your own advice Don't be surprised when you trip and stumble I played the fool again My old unfaithful friend Stick and move Sharpen up the knife Don't be surprised if you can't stay between the lines Quicksand color blind in the hourglass All spun out 'cause you can't stop looking back Better stay still don't you make a move What'd you hope to find here Taught me how to fall But you never told me I was meant to die here Stick and move Sharpen up the knife Keep it tight Stay between the lines Make your mark Take your own advice Don't be surprised when you trip and stumble I played the fool again My old unfaithful friend Stick and move Sharpen up the knife Don't be surprised if you can't stay between the lines Endless shot rounds No smoking guns Fizzled and faded Now back on the run My sticks and stones Tokyo smoke I played the fool 'til I started to choke My public smile My double face Half in the light Half in the shade Need some fresh air No place tonight Guess I'll stay in and continue to fight Lost trace of trail Spider web spun Pale white and blue Now I'm coming undone Play sticks and stones Three shades of black Two steps away And I can't get back
