Sleep Standing Up (Concrete Block) Lyrics

It's a secret, they'd kill me for you
but for the same girl, I'd kill them all too
and hang their bloody heads, so the whole world could see
the faces of the men, who tried to keep you from me

It's so hard to be
Yeah, it's hard to be down
When you sleep standing up with me, standing up with me, standing up...
In sleep

If the father hates me, he can meet me in the dark
in an alley somewhere, off a street in New York
and his skull will cave in, then burn we'll his remains
And the life you once knew, will never be the same

Cause, It's so hard to be
Yeah, its hard to be down
When you sleep standing up with me, standing up with me, standing up with me, Oh God!

I'm in touch
with a violence that I hope will reap love

Dragged under by a concrete block
As the water permeates my lungs

It's so hard to be
Yeah, it's hard to be down
When you sleep standing up with me, standing up with me, standing up with me, standing up!
