GLooked into the sky, walked another mile.
Watching snowfall take its time to the groDund,
To bury this tCown.
Yeah, oGne step at a time walking on the line.
Laid in the dirt of the pigs, The saints and the clDowns 
know 'em all too wCell.
[Chorus]
Yeah, wGe already madDe our bed to laCy our head to rGest.
GAnd we drove every nDail in that old Ccoffin for the Gtrench.
[Verse]
Looked into the sky, walked another mile.
Cutting losses till my arm's dead tired.
Nothing to admire.
Yeah, one step at a time walking on the line.
Cut through the thick and thin on the way to hell,
Know it all to well.
[Chorus]
Yeah, we already made our bed to lay our head to rest.
And we drove every nail of that old coffin for the trench.
Yeah, we already made our bed to lay our head to rest.
And we drove every nail of that old coffin for the trench.

Looked into the sky, walked another mile.

Watching snowfall take its time to the ground,

To bury this town.

Yeah, one step at a time walking on the line.

Laid in the dirt of the pigs, The saints and the clowns

know 'em all too well.

And we drove every nail in that old coffin for the trench.

Cutting losses till my arm's dead tired.

Nothing to admire.

Yeah, we already made our bed to lay our head to rest.

And we drove every nail of that old coffin for the trench.
