This hole starts in the pit of the stomach
And it empties into parts of you that have no name
This soul torn from the peak of the heavens
I think I gave mine up, but I still feel the same
Words to fuel the human engines
Tricks to make me think it wasn't you
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
This hand stops in seven places
Along your alabaster back and through your hair
Oh, and this hand behind my back is hidden
With fingers crossed around the dagger of my prayer
Words to fuel the human engines
Tricks to make me think it wasn't you
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
I learned a new trick
I know the trick the trick I know the trick is never ever ever want anything ever never ever want anything never ever ever.
