Iron Boots - Lyrics by Rustic Overtones


Lyrics
Are your thoughts breaking?  Are your thoughts crushing?
Are they naked, are they aching to be pushing?
Do you feel clean?I feel that too muchand the hunch I didn't play beckons my waylike a crutch
Iron boots, aluminum wings
I just can't stop running into things
And I'm all smashed up
Honey...today I hit the ground and foundthese wings made of tin will just cave inand iron boots just keep me down
Are your thoughts in silence or are your thoughts in sirens?
Is it steel rubing steel or is it iron to iron?
Do you think like me? Does trouble just come up?
What is the sickness that growls like machines in your gut?
Iron boots, aluminum wings
I just can't stop running into things
And I'm all smashed up
Honey...today I hit the ground and foundthese wings made of tin will just cave inand iron boots just keep me downtripping me up againiron boots and matching staight jacket suitsand I fall down again on my chin
Fuel spilling out, fuel still rushing inis how it begins.
It's a miracle I can still stand up pulling me down with your gravity.
Sadder than tragedy's sound. I still get around.I still get up with iron boots on the ground
It's in times of riot not times of quietit's were I hide it; inside it.
It's the distortion, give me distortion to clear it all away.
