Nerves of Steel

​

I've told my story

I've laid my soul bare

I've told my side

We'll leave it there

​

And the truth will out,

The truth will out,

The truth will out,

Oh yeah

​

Chorus

​

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

You didn't reckon on me

Having nerves of steel now did you?

You didn't reckon on me

Having nerves of steel now did you?

​

I know what you are

I've laid it bare

So take your sides

We'll leave it there

​

And the truth will out,

The truth will out,

The truth will out,

Oh yeah

​

Chorus

​

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

You didn't reckon on me

Having nerves of steel now did you?

You didn't reckon on me

Calling off the deal now did you?

​

I've told my story

I've laid my soul bare

I've told my side

We'll leave it there

​

And the truth will out,

The truth will out,

The truth will out,

Oh yeah

​

Chorus

​

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

I weathered the storm

I held my nerve

I really hope that you get

What you deserve

You didn't reckon on me

Having nerves of steel now did you?

You didn't reckon on me

Calling off the deal now did you?

​

I know what you are

​

I know what it's like

​

He doesn't use his fists

'Cause fists leave a mark

He does it all by stealth

Undercover and after dark

He takes the light from your heart

And puts darkness in its place

He takes the sparkle from your eyes

And wipes the smile from your face

​

Chorus

​

And I know what it's like

To tell the truth and be called a liar

I know what it's like

To tell the truth and have no-one believe you

I know what it's like to be pushed to the brink

And see them all still buying bully-boy a drink

​

He isn't what he seems

He's the devil in disguise

He beats you black and blue

But don't leave you with bruised eyes

​

He takes the light from your heart

And puts darkness in its place

He takes the sparkle from your eyes

And wipes the smile from your face

​

Chorus

​

And I know what it's like

To tell the truth and be called a liar

I know what it's like

To tell the truth and have no-one believe you

I know what it's like to be pushed to the brink

And see them all still buying bully-boy a drink

​

Yeah I see them all still buying bully-boy a drink

You Do Moody So Well

​

Misunderstood, misconstrued, misread yeah

I read that sign

Misunderstood, misconstrued, misread yeah

But it's all the time

​

Chorus

​

And you do moody so well

Give me that twisted feeling in my belly

You do moody so well

And I can't keep this from falling into hell

​

So pick your toys up and put them back in your pram

And love me for who I am

Or lets go our seperate ways

And life seperate days

'Cause I'm not just an ego stroker

And I've already played my joker

​

Repeat Chorus

​

You got your wand out

And you waved it well

I succumbed but not to your spell

So let's go our separate ways 

And live seperate days

'Cause I'm not just your ego stroker

And I already played my joker

​

Repeat Chorus

​

Go to hell
