The Crutch - Billy Talent

I should have turned and walked away

But I got tangled in your chains

A trail of debt for all to see

You shut the cage and stole the key

Your state of mind revealed

That my love for you was real

They say in time wounds heal

But I’ve got nothing left to steal

My mouth is shut, my lips are sealed

You are the crutch of this disease

And I’ve been locked in your machine

Sit here and rot or break this deal

I spilled my blood on the checkered floor

You’ve got me crawling back for more

You set the trap, I’ll take the bait

A bed of nails I can’t escape

Your state of mind revealed

That my love for you was real

They say in time wounds heal

But I’ve got nothing left to steal

My mouth is shut, my lips are sealed

You are the crutch of this disease

And I’ve been locked in your machine

Sit here and rot or break this deal

Now it’s so dark that I can’t see

The mental scars you left on me

So dig your nails and grind your teeth

I’m in your clutch for eternity

Yeah, I know it’s hard for you to see

The mental scars you left on me

So dig your nails and grind your teeth

I’m in your clutch for eternity

My mouth is shut, my lips are sealed

You are the crutch of this disease

And I’ve been locked in your machine

Sit here and rot or break this deal
