Every Seven Years

I’m looking for the man who lost my mind
I’m cautious, so I think I’ll take my time
Old man, your life is like a hearse
You’re choking on the afterbirth

I’m praying, but prayers don’t toe the line
I’m saying whatever’s on your mind
Old man, your mind is like a curse
You’re choking, smoking Astroturf

Take a breath and kiss the snake
right between the eyes
Don't think you'll bury me this time
Don't think you'll bury me this time

Lost control, Rock & Roll
Break my bones, sticks and stones
Mindless violence takes it’s toll
Christless, sightless, save my soul
Lost control, Rock & Roll
Timeless silence, break the mold

I’m heaving rocks to throw at me
I’m bleeding drugs and anarchy
Little child, your heart is like the cure
How long ‘till the cauldron starts to stir?

Hold your breath until
the cobra's hypnotized
Don't want to ever walk that line
Don't want to ever walk that line

Lost control, Rock & Roll
Break my bones, sticks and stones
Mindless violence takes it’s toll
Christless, sightless, save my soul
Lost control, Rock & Roll
Timeless silence, break the mold

I’m tired of letting your steer
My eyes are red and my mind is clear
I’ll shrug it off every seven years
