And with the early dawn
Moving right along
I couldn't buy and eyeful of sleep

And in the aching night under satellites
I was not received
Built with stolen parts

A telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest
To put my mind to bed

This ringing in my head
Is this a cure or is this a disease


Chorus
Nail in my hand
From my creator

You gave me life
Now show me how to live (x2)


And in the after birth
On the quiet earth
Let the stains remind you

You thought you made a man
You better think again
Before my role defines you


Chorus
Nail in my hand

From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live (x2)


And in your waiting hands
I will land

And roll out of my skin
And in your final hours I will stand
Ready to begin

Ready to begin
Ready to begin
Ready to begin


Chorus
Nail in my hand

From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live (x2)


Show me how to live
Show me how to live

Show me how to live
Show me how to live
