Shadow Stabbing            
             
Adjectives on the typewriter
He moves his words like a prizefighter
The frenzied pace of the mind inside the cell

The man on the street might just as well be
The man on the street might just as well be
The man on the street might just as well be

Outside, outside the world
Out there you don¹t hear the echoes and calls
But the steel eye, tight jaw
Say it all, say it all

But the white paint, plastic saints
Say it all, say it all, say it all

Say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all
Say somebody got to say it all
Somebody got to say it all

I¹m so nervous, I¹m so tense
My heart can¹t forget about this self-defense
And the air is so hot and my breath comes fast
I thumb the cool blade but I know this can¹t last (so nervous, so tense)
I thumb the cool blade but I know this can¹t last (so nervous, so tense)
(So nervous, so tense)

Outside, outside the world
Out there you don¹t hear the echoes and calls
But the steel eye, tight jaw
Say it all, say it all
But the white paint, plastic saints
Say it all, say it all, say it all

Say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all, say it all
Say somebody got to say it all
Somebody got to say it all

Adjectives on the typewriter
He moves his words like a prizefighter
The frenzied pace of the mind inside the cell

The man on the street might just as well be
The man on the street might just as well be
The man on the street might just as well be
