I'm gonna fight 'em off 
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back 
They're gonna rip it off 
Taking their time right behind my back 
And I'm talking to myself at night 
Because I can't forget 
Back and forth through my mind 
Behind a cigarette 
And the message coming from my eyes 
Says leave it alone 

Don't want to hear about it 
Every single one's got a story to tell 
Everyone knows about it 
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell 
And if I catch it coming back my way 
I'm gonna serve it to you 
And that ain't what you want to hear, 
But that's what I'll do 
And the feeling coming from my bones 
Says find a home 

I'm going to Wichita 
Far from this opera for evermore 
I'm gonna work the straw 
Make the sweat drip out of every pore 
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm 
bleeding 
Right before the lord 
All the words are gonna bleed from me 
And I will think no more 
And the stains coming from my blood 
Tell me go back home
