i m sick of chasing after things i d rather them chase after me keeping up is bound to wear me down there s a million ways to skin a cat i ve put my choices in a hat picked a few and threw the bad ones out i know now so if you want me you d better knock me down cause i ain t easy and this ain t hallowed ground i ve been thinking about ol cain and able sitting at a breakfast table talking about the way things used to be well able looked at cain and said all that shit was in your head i d like to think that cain was hard to please i know now so if you want me you d better knock me down cause i ain t easy and this ain t hallowed ground she said no one loves you more than me i looked at her she looked at me i think she s waiting for me to believe i wish that love was all it took i d fall into you if i could hoping for a graceful recovery but i know now so if you want me you d better knock me down cause i ain t easy oh and this ain t hallowed ground
