lyrics

Walking Wounded

Jimmy was a man, you could say that he was
He did everything that was right
White collar worker, got a house and some kids
And a wife he kissed every night

Then one night, he had to stay back at work
And a little something came on the screen
It seemed like fun and the late nights increased
And she became his digital dream

(she’d say)

(pre chorus)
Come here baby
I’ve got everything you need
I can fill your little void
And you won’t even have to try

You’ll come to lean on me
Even when it’s over
You’ll be weaker than before
And I will even suck you dry.

(chorus)
Why are the heroes always
Walking wounded?
Why are the warriors out of sight?
Take your amour and stand
There’s a battle to fight!

Here comes David with his flavor of the week
It’s a shame that she can’t see
It’s only to a point you can get so close
And the rest remains a mystery

But underneath it all, there’s a wounded little boy
And a memory that won’t go away
Something about a father who called him a fag
Now he has to keep his feelings at bay.

(still she says…)

(pre chorus)
Come here baby
I’ve got everything you need
I can fill your little void
And you won’t even have to try

You’ll come to lean on me
Even when it’s over
You’ll be weaker than before
And I will even suck you dry.

(chorus)
Why are the heroes always
Walking wounded?
Why are the warriors out of sight?
Take your amour and stand
There’s a battle to fight!
