Devastation Hands

You got your pieces
And you got your pawns
You got devastation hands
And a life that leads like insanity
What you need is you need
A little something that will take the edge off
Just a little a push to get you to the ledge
You can jump it from
And when you’re jumping
Only you would ever know again
You live for love
But the love’s all gone
Surround yourself with genius
But the meanness is enough to kill someone
So you learn what you learn
You drink your blessings
And you take your pills
You look for something better
But you’ve lost your will to save yourself
So the hurt keeps coming
Only you would ever know who was your friend
I know
What you need
You need someone to help you tonight
Only when you’re here can I feel like this
When I put my arms around you
Only when you smile does it hurt like this
Just let somebody love you
