The Clawed One Lyrics

and i have got a name
that i will never forget
it has been shouted at me all the time
and i have got arms
not strong enough to catch a fall
i fell down once, i have broken my bones
out of all promises
i could make
i can not promise you this
and i have got a head
there was never a choice
like a gun it is revolving unstoppable
and i have got hands
i cant hold anything dear
they are claws to scrape away the shame
out of all promises
i could make
i can not promise you this
pile up the pyre of my desire
burn me at the stake
and set this
lonesome creature
ablaze.
if i was given the chance to save a life
i would even save yours in time
if i was given the chance
i would save everyones life around me
except for mine
