Brickwork - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

All the words that you said

They left a hole in the back of my head

I need to know, is she alive or is she dead?

And it's my fault now that there's blood on the ground

And you said that you could last another round

But I wasn't the one who was holding the noose

I just put it to use

'Cause all the words that you said

They left a hole in the back of my head

I need to know, is she alive or is she dead?

If you run with scissors

You'll get what you deserve

So watch your footing, my dear

Or you might just disappear

'Cause all the words that you said

They left a hole in the back of my head

And I need to know, is she alive or is she dead?

And as I looked up I saw God's empty chair

And I realized the man himself is not there

And I wonder who is gonna save me

From the fact you're undeniably tainted

As you pirouetted on the mantle piece

I awoke to the pattern of your tiny feet

And in my endless sleep

I realized that I was yours to keep

'Cause all the words that you said

They left a hole in the back of my head
