[verse x-1]
I'll be here when you need me
Said the Hammer to the Man
I'll be here when you need me
Said I to all my "friends"
[verse x-2]
They picked me up and used me
Like a tool at their command
But now they will feel sorry
Without me anymore
--------------------------------------------
[pre chorus x-1]
I'm the fire on your wick
That kept you from burning out
[break]
But now (Like "I had" in Skin O My Teeth)
I'm sick of (Say it like "Sicka") bein' warmhearted
When life starts getting cold
[chorus]
Don't get pissed when I fight back
When you know that I'm right
Don't get distraught with me
When you know you're wrong
(Higher vocals/guitar start here)
I will fight til you back away
Like I always do
(INSERT 1 or 2 MORE LINES?)

[verse xx-1]
I was your backbone so long
It felt so right for us both
Through thick and thin I was there
Never letting you down
[verse xx-2]
I'm done being the pillars
That held you up when you slumped
I crumble right beneath you
And watch as you tumble
