quorthon - coming down in pieces lyrics

i was way off track from start
i judged everything by my damned heart
i walked unprotected 'gainst the blows
how was i suppose to really know

when you think you know what's the right thing to do
and you find you just don't have a clue
and when things turn out to be not what they seemed
you are caught walking barefoot on glass
with your head firmly stuck up your ass

i was coming down in pieces you bet i was coming down
what goes up believe me surely must hit hard the ground
i was coming down in pieces yet i was sound enough to say
i'm the only one to blame, yeah, so get out of my damn f*ckin' way

i scratched my walls 'till my fingers bled
i tried to get it all out of my f*ckin' head
i was really deep down for quite some time
it took quite a while to leave it all behind

when it hits ya' and you don't think that you'll make it through
and the times when a hell will stick to ya' like glue
and it seems very effort is destined to fail
you'll be surprised how you sh*t you can take
before you give it in and you start to break

i was coming down in pieces...

when you think you know...

now i know should i go there again
to hit the bottom don't need to mean the end

i was coming down in pieces...
