Lyrics and translation
Original
You set the pace, you're first.
It's not all roses and posies.
Whack the stone into forty bones.
It's not all roses and posies. Good luck to you, keepin' your whistle clean.
My gauge sticks to the mile, runnin' out of steam.
Reach for the top, turn to take.
Give up the torture, you'll find yourself still inside the breach.
It's not all roses and posies.
Starin' at the wall, you're a ghost's height. When will you fall?
'Cause it feels like it knows my name.
Reach for the top, turn to take.
Give up the torture, you'll find yourself still inside the breach.
You set the pace, you're first.
You could fight with all your might.
You set the pace, you're first.
You could fight with all your might.
There's always room for one more in the ground.
The place your answers never found. The acid burns from toe to crown.
Oh.
Reach for the top, turn to take.
Give up the torture, you'll find yourself still inside the breach.
There's always room for one more in the ground. The place your answers never found.
The acid burns from toe to crown.
Oh.
You could fight with all your might
