Don’t Count on the Wicked Lyrics by Billy Talent

Dead Silence

2012

This heart don't count on the wicked
These hands don't fight at all
This mind don't do what it's told to
These eyes don't cry at all
Don't cry at all, hey-oh… hey-oh…
These eyes don't cry at all, hey-oh… hey-oh…
This heart don't count on the wicked
We face this world alone
When all they want is to break you
Turn anger into hope
Within this city of villains
I walk these streets alone
Where everyone is a stranger
Their eyes turn me to stone
Turn me to stone, hey-oh… hey-oh…
Your eyes turn me to stone, hey-oh… hey-oh…
This heart don't count on the wicked
We face this world alone
When all they want is to break you
Turn anger into hope
I'm telling you, tonight I swear to tear out these nails
From the cross I've bared for giving you control of me
This heart don't count on the wicked
This anger turns to hope, it turns to hope
Calling from the mountain tops
Rain is falling from the sky above
They surround you with their darkest thoughts
'Til you drown you in pessimistic talk
You say you don't care, if the atom drops
You say you don't care, if the world is lost
They'll never break you if you're strong enough
They'll never change you, If you turn your anger into hope
This heart don't count on the wicked
We face this world alone
When all they want is to break you
Turn anger into hope
I'm telling you, tonight I swear to tear out these nails
From the cross I've bared for giving you control of me
This heart don't count on the wicked
This anger turns to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
Anger turns to hope!
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
We turn it to hope
Anger turns to hope!
