Hang on Every Word Lyrics & Tabs by Vigilantes of Love
Hang on Every Word
guitar chords lyrics
Feelings in reverse
Now I hang on
Every word from you
Too fast on the curve
Now I'm straining
Every nerve come through
You can only play the victim
Just a short amount of time
Your own wounds
You'll have to lick 'em
'Til the ambulance arrives
Given all I've heard
Hang on every word
I hang
Hanging by a thread
Hang on every word
I hang
Hanging by a thread
Walking here among the dead
Pleased to meet you
What's with my chemistry?
My fallenness that strangles me
What am I crawling towards?
You can only play the hero
'Til your mask begins to slip
And the fist on your bravado
Starts to lose its sacred grip
Wife asked the other day
"Where's your joy?
Did it slip away?"
I could say nothing
Even though I am a son
How quickly I've forgotten
But I'm yearning
You can only play the star
'Til the real truth comes to light
All those hungry tabloids
Got you in the check out line overnight
