Cut down to the bone All I get is a name on a headstone Never wander around in the daylight I take it all the other s**ers try to tell me it's alright Whatever I do It doesn't matter 'cause I can't please you I don't need another trip to the ghetto Everything I think about has gotta be let go Down to the same old scene I think of every little thing I've been And I don't know what's going on But the things that I do know are all wrong And you're better than me, it's easy to see You're twice whatever I could be I never thought that I would need someone to set me free Cut down In the middle of a big old lie Cut down Everything is gonna be all right Cut down What am I supposed to do When everything depends on you? Cut down In the middle of a big old lie Cut down Everything is gonna be all right Cut down What am I supposed to be When everything comes down on me? Same thing anyway I just wanna try to make a getaway Never wanted to be the one With my back to the wall while I stare at the sun My eyes wide open, you never can tell The problem is I know damn well That the things that I do don't matter that much I've been using a ma**ive crutch While the world goes by, leaves me behind I probably need to be redesigned So I stop living as if I'm dead Like a man with a gun at the back of his head And you're better than me, it's easy to see You're twice whatever I could be I never thought that I would need someone to set me free (German verse)
