Meat Puppets
Nail It Down
[Verse 1]
In or around this cold and broken sight
In the heat of events, got one thing right
I walked through an invisible fire
I got burned, I remember, and I still got the scar

[Chorus]
Like the loosened connection on your personal circuit
Don't need a hammer just to nail it down, nail it down
Nail it down

[Verse 2]
You know the thing with the sideways glance
In the heat of a moment, there's a little chance
Little face with a painted grin
Comes the realization you must backwards walk in

[Chorus]
If it tries to escape you through an open window
Don't need a hammer just to nail it down, nail it down
Nail it down

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Step aside to miss the opening verse
Catch the full on blast of what's a little worse
Within a pond down inside somewhere
There's a rustle of quiet and the salt of the air
[Chorus]
If it tries to escape you through an open window
Don't need a hammer just to nail it down, nail it down
Nail it down
Like the loosened connection on your personal circuit
Don't need a hammer just to nail it down, nail it down
Nail it down
If it tries to escape you through an open window, nail it down
Nail it down

[Outro]
Nail it down
Nail it down
Nail it down
Nail it down
Nail it down
Nail it down
