Shortage - Headless

this time i tell you i’m gonna drown

lord it came as one surprise

gettin' mercy from your hand… gonna make a stand

i can feel the world demise

a deep cut inside… a blade of corruption

from a shadow behind the curtain

like a camel through the eye of a needle

livin' on a prayer is all i do

through an endless shortage

when you feel life’s bringing you down

at the end of that tunnel

you are not alone… we walk through fire and brimstone

you had your chances now it’s time to pay the price

no promises of hope and change

too many questions standing in my way

the more i beg the less i crave from you

like a missionary dancing through the desert

in a search of a holy land

final retribution counterrevolution

a bunch of prayers still stuck up my sleeve

through an endless shortage

when you feel life’s bringing you down

at the end of that tunnel

you are not alone…

another wall for you to climb

the world is small from the top of the holy mountain

a deep cut inside… a blade of corruption

from a shadow behind the curtain

like a camel through the eye of a needle

livin' on a prayer is all i do

through an endless shortage

when you feel life’s bringing you down

at the end of that tunnel

you are not alone… we walk through fire and brimstone
