Lyrics Beat Yourself Blind (live, 1995: Astoria, London, UK) - Skid Row

Give me a minute 'cause I'm wrapped in superstition
Pour me a chemical to take away the edge
Don't make up anything that's breaking all your fingers
Just slap around a bit of what it takes to pledge

Carry out another stone as a slave
Ask general know it all, "Who's juggling the earth?"
Tease all the natives that will walk across your grave
And shove aside your nation all for what it's worth

Beat yourself blind, beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind, beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind, beat yourself blind
And open eyes and a closed mind

Look at the suit in suspended animation
A faded outline that used to be a man
A piece of paper that's fallen out a window
Has got a better chance to know where it will land

Beat yourself blind, beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind, beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
And open eyes and a closed mind

To bleed in vain, to bleed in vain
Under my eyes are painted skies

Down at the bone yard, they're diggin' up the relics
Handfuls of parasites thrown into machines
I got the phone call, they're tearin' down the mission
The zombies had a ball, but they don't know what it means

Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
Beat yourself blind
...
