The Velvet Fist Songtext
von Parson Brown

Crawled through some back door
And ended up here
Afraid and alone, you must be near
No time to consider
The rules of escape
My luck has run out
With the very last tear
Tearing the inside out
Pray it be kissed
Tearing the inside out
It won′t be missed
Dream-one or demon
I never could tell
But I knew I was lost
From the way that I fell
Scanning the edges
Of the terrible wound
Pour in the salt
And the next line of Krell
Tearing the inside out


Pray it be kissed
Tearing the inside out
There's blood on your wrist
Please apply velvet fist
I welcome you back
I was just taking aim
Welcome home
Just take me back
Take what you want and then
Leave me to dry
There′s nothing to give
There's no need to pry
Just rip your shadow
Away from my flesh
My first ever love
My last ever lie
Tearing the inside out
Pray it be kissed
Tearing the inside out
Apply velvet fist
Tearing the inside out
It won't be missed
Why is it we could not foresee
This final twist
I welcome you back
I was just taking aim
Welcome home
Take you in again
I welcome you back
Come on home
Come on home
