When Snakes Sing - Handcuffs
I'd arrest you if I had handcuffs
I'd arrest you if I had the time
I'd throw you down in the back seat
As if you'd committed a terrible crime
★ Verse 2 ★
I'd break into a towns worth of houses
And rob whole family's blind
I'd do it to you like you do it to me
If I knew you would get away fine
I'd drown all these crying babies
If I knew that their mothers wouldn't cry
I'd hold them down and I'd squeeze real soft
And let a piece of myself die
★ Hook ★
It's hard to be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
★ Verse 3 ★
I'd arrest you if I had handcuffs
I'd arrest you if I had time
I'd wait for you outside the courtroom
And taunt you when all your appeals were declined
I'd drive my car off of the bridge
If I knew that you weren't inside
Put the pedal to the floor, who could ask for more?
A fantastic way to kill some time
★ Bridge ★
You could lay on your back and be beaten
Or you could put up your fists and fight
You could be a way out (Way out, way out, way out)
★ Outro ★
It's hard be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
When you're still lying
It's hard to be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
When you're still lying
You're still lying
