A Missile Songtext
von IQ

Hardest nails, impaled and war-torn
Water vapours trailing
Bloodshot down, I am drowning
Born of iron failings and fear
There is no faith can be sustained
No original sin to blame

Breaking back, unreactive
Shaking my perspective
Solid state, armour plated
Deadly unattractive to all
But you hunted me down again
Man, you ran me aground right then

Now I know
Whatever lay beneath your skin
Was all that pulled me in


Weighted scales created fiction
Empty revolution
Essential trial, day of all days
Silent retribution begins
No expression that self contains
No ulterior gain remains
Now I know
Anything hidden in your skin
Enough to pull me in

When I leave that sunrise
Without a missile
Someone flawless moves in
With every potential
What I thought could save me was artificial
Raking across my nerves and taking possession
Cutting a chainsaw swathe
Through all defences still in place
Because it′s crazy and nothing existed
It all escapes me
I'm not even making a promise

There is no faith can be sustained
No original sin to blame
Now I know
Whatever lay beneath your skin
Was all that pulled me in

When I find I′ve carved out another profile
I will leave that sunrise without a missile
