Cold sweat in the dead of night
As the beat of your heart awakens you
Blasphemies to an unseen God
As the Devil inside is breaking through

And you know there's no easy way
And I've no golden words to say
So next time you forgive yourself away
Remember how it felt today

Chorus:
Failure is human, from mistakes we learn (but)
Don't be afraid to watch your bridges burn (because)
To conceal won't necessarily heal (and)
Won't circumvent the pain you feel
To give yourself away, it isn't right (and)
Could be the reason you can't sleep at night (but)
There is one other way to stop what you feel
The Cold Taste of Nickel Plated Steel

A blank stare towards a vacant wall
Becomes generally unnerved
Although you don't get what you want
Some people get what they deserve

And there's nothing I can say
To make this go away

(chorus)

If there is one thing I can make you learn
It's that some people do deserve to burn
And although your wounds may never heal
It's always worth the pain they feel
So let's just sit back and enjoy the ride
There is no need to make your hatred hide (because)
There are some people who just need to feel
The Cold Taste of Nickel Plated Steel
