Clean My Wounds

Corrosion Of Conformity · Deliverance [1994]

I see the world through bloodshot eyes

Streets filled with blood from distant lies.

The dogs of war never compromise,

No real time for rearranging.



"Help me Jesus, Help me clean my wounds"

He said he cannot heal that kind.

Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind.

He said it happens every time...

Knock it down,

That's how the story goes

Knock it down,

In the Land of 1000 No's.

Knock it down.

I'm all over you

In time my mind is changing.



Black on black gives me a heart attack

And the silence makes it deadly.

Some choose to kill with simple will.

I've seen them fall fast and steady.



"Help me Jesus, Help me clean my wounds"

He said he cannot heal that kind.

Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind.

He said it happens every time...

Knock it down,

That's how the story goes

Knock it down,

In the Land of 1000 No's.

Knock it down.

I'm all over you

In time my mind is changing.



Twist of fate won't give me a break

And myself, I'm slow and tired.

I've got to rise with these bloodshot eyes

But I keep falling when I'm higher.



"Help me Jesus, Help me clean my wounds"

He said he cannot heal that kind.

Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind.

He said it happens every time...

Knock it down,

That's how the story goes

Knock it down,

In the Land of 1000 No's.

Knock it down,

We are bleeding sins but our sins

Are always fading...



Knock it Down,

Knock it Down.
