lyrics

You’re scanning around looking for the promised land
With your neck on the block and your face in the sand
Running out of fight
Running out of time
Ground down into pieces
Waiting for you in the middle of the night

To swing your axe baby
Come on and hurry up because the waiting is driving me crazy
It’s just one fell swoop and it dies
And the little pieces get swept to the side

I’ve been waiting, I’ve been waiting too long
Keep on rolling to the beat but I’m sick of the same old song
Is there something I can do
To get out of here alive
Not waiting on your decision
For you to come stand by my side

So you can swing your axe baby
Come on and hurry up because the waiting is driving me crazy
It’s just one fell swoop and it dies
And the little pieces get swept to the side

And you forget about them once they leave your side
Like I’ll forget about you in a little while

so swing your axe baby
Come on and hurry up because the waiting is driving me crazy
It’s just one fell swoop and it dies
And the little pieces get swept to the side
