Jaws of Life

[Verse 1] Hold me like a child In your warm, warm arms Whisper parables Keep me safe from harm [Chorus] Oh, my sagging skin Oh, my burning sky I will close my eyes I will close my eyes [Verse 2] There was laughter once There were pretty songs Pull the metal shards Thin my clotted blood [Chorus] Oh, my rotted skin Oh, my burning sky I will close my eyes I will close my eyes [Instrumental] [Outro] Oh, the jaws of life Oh, the jaws of life Oh, the jaws of life
