Switchfoot Dirty Second Hands song lyrics

Please don't be so naive

You know you're not fooling anyone

You're not as tough as you think

With dirty second hands, dirty second hands

Can't get nothing for free

It becomes so predictable

You start fighting to breathe

The dirty second hands, dirty second hands

(chorus)

Here's the face of everything that breaks you down

Now you face the face of everything that breaks you down

With an army of me

We invent our own enemies

Man versus machine

And the dirty second hands, the dirty second hands

In the land of the free

And the home of the remedy

The old clock is a thief

With dirty second hands, dirty second hands

(chorus)

Are you really as tough as you think

You blink and you're over the brink

You bleed but the blood runs pink

With dirty second hands, dirty second hands

You're not quite as tough as you thought

You bought the American rot

The very seed that you thought you shot

With dirty second hands, dirty second hands

You might be right, the fight might be right

Inside you the blind leading the lied-to, tonight

Maybe you bind you with dirty second hands

(chorus)
