I'm sick of chasing after things, I'd rather them chase after me

Keeping up is bound to wear me down

There's a million ways to skin a cat, I've put my choices in a hat

Picked a few and threw the bad ones out



I know now



So if you want me you'd better knock me down

Cause I ain't easy and this ain't hallowed ground



I've been thinking about ol' Cain and Able, sitting at a breakfast table

Talking about the way things used to be

Well Able looked at Cain and said all that shit was in your head

I'd like to think that Cain was hard to please



I know now



So if you want me you'd better knock me down

Cause I ain't easy and this ain't hallowed ground



She said no one loves you more than me

I looked at her, she looked at me

I think she's waiting for me to believe



I wish that love was all it took

I'd fall into you if I could

Hoping for a graceful recovery



But I know now



So if you want me, you'd better knock me down

Cause I ain't easy oh, and this ain't hallowed ground
