My Nerves, Your Everyday Tool - Soilwork

Where do you go when you’ve given it all

And your mind declares a collapse

You’ve turned every page in an infected book

And wasted every good advice

How long

Does it take for you to realize your limitations?

How strong

Will I come off if I tell you to kiss your shield goodbye?

Time is nothing, presence is all

You’re here for something, make the call

There is a truth that only you can retrieve

Stop draining yourself

And be the one to ignite

Play the victim one more time

You’ve unlocked yourself

But won’t see the line

Shutting yourself down every time

Bury yourself till the end of time

These words are mine

(There's nobody else who can…)

They will consume you dry

To the core

Last time hereinafter

Last time, I will go alone, I will

Spare the pain, a life disaster

Never live through a distant soul

My nerves, your everyday tool

I won’t serve cause I broke no rules

Last time hereinafter

Last time, I will go alone

All I hear is just a silent scream

Of true desperation

Let me break it to you

You won’t make it through

Do you see where it’s going?

All you left behind

The universe is turning

Every minute last forever

A conspiracy with time

Though I feel I’ve been learning to strive

I will never deceive myself
