Kings of Leon — Black Thumbnail lyrics

Lyrics

My cold, cold sailor heart says get on your way
I ain’t to proud to say but thats how I’m made.
I’ll be that person 'til my dying day
I try so awful hard, but I can’t change.
From runways to the road, I ramble alone
This thumbnail sized of a heart is black as coal
Your beauty, it still brings me to my knees
Don’t waste a tear on me, this is my disease
Don’t leave no smell on me Don’t leave no smell on me
I’ll blow off in your sleep
Don’t leave no smell on me Those preppy boys in blue
They’re making fun of us So we take it to the streets
'cause we want to be first
But we’re not here to make your children bleed
We’re here to come around with the tumble weed
Don’t take these boots off me when you’re thinking I’m dead
I’ll still be running from the demon in my head
I’ll be that person 'til my dying day
I try so awful hard, but I can’t change
Don’t leave no…
