Six Lashes from Shadows by museumoforder

When you're holding out your hand
You get what you are given
Not what you've been asking for
And as if that's not enough

When you're holding back the tears
Because you've got what you been given
Not what you've been asking for
And as if that's not enough

Six lashes my boy
And I hope that they hurt you
Six hard lashes on those mummy's boy hands
Do you feel those fingertips?
No, you shouldn't by now
Six lashes my boy,
You'll get what you are given

When you're crying not from pain,
But from the lack of justice
That you've been asking for
And as if that's not enough

Six lashes my boy
And I hope that they hurt you
Six hard lashes on those mummy's boy hands
Do you feel those fingertips?
No, you shouldn't by now
Six lashes my boy,
You'll get what you are given

When you're holding out your hand,
You are reaching for the stars
And that's all you've been asking for
And as if that's not enough

Six lashes my boy
And I hope that they hurt you
Six hard lashes on those mummy's boy hands
Do you feel those fingertips?
No, you shouldn't by now
Six lashes my boy,
You'll get what you are given
Six hard lashes on those mummy’s boy hands
