The Undertow

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You always needed people like me Directions for your fingers to point A crooked dealer's blaming spree I'm guaranteed to disappoint You're weak and scared and cutting raw deals But fortune always favors the bold I'll bet it all and crush your bluff I'll never yield nor ever fold [Refrain] And I won't shoulder the blame [Chorus] I am the one who's left to take the fall I fight the constant undertow [Verse 2] You always needed a distraction A target for the stones that you throw To draw attention from your actions I'm tailor-made, so lock and load Oh, you're telling tales You spineless coward Your word's not worth its weight in shit Back against the wall, belligerent [Refrain] I won't shoulder the blame [Pre-Chorus] So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out You're gonna find me Standing where you left me [Chorus] I am the one who's left to take the fall I fight the constant undertow [Bridge] I fight the constant undertow I fight the constant undertow [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Deal the last hand Let the cards fall where they may From your castle made of sand You're looking down at me So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out You'll have to face me Waiting where you left me [Chorus] I am the one who's left to take the fall I fight the constant undertow [Outro] The undertow The undertow
