I wish the needle would’ve skipped
That blessed stretch of skin
between your shoulder and wrist
But it didn’t
You’ve got the grooves to prove it
It’s recorded evidence
Played loudly for the audience
so full of disappointment
(Calling for an extended set list)
I am loss
Without an answer
I am the widowmaker
I know just what you want me to be
A cowcatcher to find some relief
Push all of your problems away
So you don’t have to feel a thing
But I am the engine that burns
And I am the steel of the tracks
The wheels that cut through time
You use me but I break your back
Lifting such a burden
More fuel for the fire
Consequence a warning
Bending to get higher
I am addiction
As clean as ever
I am the widowmaker
I am steel
And the powder
I am the gun
I am anger
I am the widowmaker
I am the widowmaker
I am the widowmaker
