Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Red lights and the headlights of cars Through the rain and the steam scream in the night And oh there's a tortured man in a courtyard His legs may be weak but still he begs for a fight When I'm alone and I'm frightened and I feel her grip tighten She sends nightbirds to howl out my door When I'm alone and I'm frightened and I feel her grip tighten She sends nightbirds to howl out my door Just keep your head above the water There's a slaughter raging outside And I keep still when I'm spoken for But you know it takes a broken man to hide And over your shoulder cold hands start to hold you Tin soldiers in black uniform And oh with their worlds made from matchsticks they'll batter down your hatches But their souls are tattered and torn When I'm alone and I'm frightened and I feel her grip tighten She sends nightbirds to howl out my door When I'm alone and I'm frightened and I feel her grip tighten She sends nightbirds to howl out my door Just keep your head above the water There's a slaughter raging outside And I keep still when I'm spoken for But you know it takes a broken man to hide To hide To hide To hide To hide To hide Just keep your head above the water There's a slaughter raging outside
