The Rattlebacks - Back of My Hand Lyrics

You never cared that
I'll never love you
Just held your head back
And swallowed me whole
Your jaw was aching
So it took it from you
And now the silence fills
Every inch of my soul
I wanna kill myself
But I'm too afraid
Afraid of just another
Mistake I've made
Worthless hopeless
Here I stand
Falling through this
Fog on the sand
God damn! God damn!
Feels like the back of my hand
So close your eyes and taste the pain
God damn! God damn!
Tastes like the back of my hand
So close your eyes embrace the pain
God damn!
Be still, be still
My goat on a plinth
My tongue is sharp
And now you're quivering
Don't spill, don't spill
Not a drop is wasted
My veins pulsating
As glazed eyes are fading
Aaaahhh...
They'll never know
All the love and the care
I put inside you while
You're gasping for air
Pain's the only
Cure for your ill
Your blood's my only
Razor lined freedom pill
God damn! God damn!
Feels like the back of my hand
So close your eyes and taste the pain
God damn! God damn!
Tastes like the back of my hand
So close your eyes embrace the pain
God damn!
God damn! God damn!
Feels like the back of my hand
So close your eyes and taste the pain
God damn! God damn!
Tastes like the back of my hand
So close your eyes embrace the pain
God damn!
