You want to impress the world?
Get a nice wife with a credit score
If I had more time I'd burn alive
Oh, living is so hard
I thought you impressed the world
Got a big job then you culled your arms
Behind every dog there's a violent charm
This island is so difficult
My darling generation takes the pill and loses faith
We're burning down the bridges
We're turning in the screw
White knuckles follow faster
The taming of the shrewd
This dirt's ingrained beneath my hands and toes
You want to impress the world?
Become a big fish in a tiny sea?
Put a strong wall up in front of me
But what about in five years' time?
Always embrace the mould
Get a big house on the credit card
Destroying first thing that your kids impress
The pressure's high, is that me?
Difficult
I throw my hat into the ring
Bring back old days of talking
We're burning down the bridges
We're turning in the screw
White knuckles follow faster
The taming of the shrewd
This dirt's ingrained beneath my hands and
We're burning down the bridges
We're turning in the screw
White knuckles follow faster
The taming of the shrewd
This dirt's ingrained beneath my hands and toes
Standing on the edge of nowhere
In a failed crusade
With a backpack stacked up with our national trust
We're selling fool's gold for the rates of good pay
And now we're praying for a medical miracle
Medical miracle
Medical miracle
(Miracle)
We're burning down the bridges
We're turning in the screw
White knuckles follow faster
The taming of the shrewd
This dirt ingrained beneath my hands
Ingrained beneath my hands and toes
We're burning down the bridges
We're turning in the screw
