Poison Drum

[Verse 1] I'm not afraid of the man next door He's calm and quiet with a heart of stone He fires a fire away that'll kill us all I'm not moving to a halfway house To work my hands for the temple How I'd die for pretty things on bigger walls [Refrain 1] And try to have it all [x2] [Verse 2] I won't listen to the men on stage They want my share of the minimum wage And fear the final things that we could know I'm not seeing what the vicar sees To fall in love with the whole trapeze and Stow the self away like a poison drum [Refrain 2] It's a sign that we'll be gone [x2] [Chorus] Yet when you walk There's a fire, there's a fire in your bones And when they talk There's a liar, there's a liar in their clothes [Verse 3] And I'm not afraid of the ghetto lords They carved our names onto city walls But they lack the fire of faith that'll save us all And I'm not doing what I can't avoid To sell my soul for the trade and toil of Fate and final things before the soil [Refrain 3] To try to have it all To die to have it all [Chorus] Yet when you walk There's a fire, there's a fire in your bones And when they talk There's a liar, there's a liar in their clothes And when you walk There's a fire, there's a fire in your bones And when they talk There's a liar, there's a liar, there's a liar in their clothes [Bridge 1] There's no reason why we can't be loyal [x4] [Bridge 2] But I'm not afraid I'm not afraid But I'm not afraid [x2] I'm not afraid But I'm not afraid [x10] No, I'm not I'm terrified [Chorus] [x2] And when you walk There's a fire, there's a fire in your bones And when they talk There's a liar, there's a liar in their clothes [Outro] I'm not afraid of the man next door He's calm and quiet with a heart of stone He fires a fire away that'll kill us all But I am doing everything I can For the minds of men that I've never met Too tired from saving money just to save myself
