You Can Lead a Man to Reason, but You Can't Make Him Think Songtext
von Death by Stereo

Burned a hole straight through my heart
Burned a hole straight through my heart
You burned a hold straight through my fucking heart
You had a hidden agenda from the start

Pennies in your pocket, knives in our backs
Money can′t compensate when music lacks

You can't take our pride, I′m going to win this time
You can't buy this life, I worked to make it mine
You can't fake this pride, I stand tall defy
You can′t take this life we hold it deep inside

No friends left to burn, you can′t take our pride
I'm going to win this time, you can′t buy this life
I worked to make it mine, you can't fake this pride
I stand tall defy, you can′t take this life
We hold it deep inside, no stones left unturned


Make no bones about it, yours will surely be broken
Ruin a friendship over some tokens
When you look in the mirror tell me who do you see
Shattered reflection of a worthless being

And as you stand in broken glass
Your memory is swept up with the ash
No world to return
All your friends that you have burned

And when you open up your eyes
See through clouded skies
That's when you realize, you′re all alone
You're all alone

And if you put a gun to my head
And asked me, do I want to live in your world
Or would I rather be dead?
I wouldn't stop you from pulling the trigger

Burned a hole straight through my heart
Burned a hole straight through my heart
You burned a hold straight through my fucking heart
You had a hidden agenda from the start

Money can′t compensate when music lacks
Now the knife′s in your back
