Muzzle No. 1
The Whip Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Long years ago I fell in love
With a lady proud and fair
So passionate were she and I
We made fire in the air
I loved her more than life itself
She loved me just the same
And it broke my heart
To think we'd part if she ended the affair
But I was brutal, I was ignorant
I was cruel, I was brash
I never gave a damn about
The beauty that I smashed
No sadist I, I took delight
In making my love cry
Now I'd pray for a single kiss from her
To be lashed and crucified
And now I feel this lady fair
Can never more be mine
Long gone are night in my lonely bed
All suffering and crying
And though I fear that through this life
She'll only call me friend




'Till I'm dead and buried in my grave
My love will never end

Here are the lyrics:-

I'm moving for no one
Start moving for me
You can't say what I'm doing
You're not the boss of me
No fooling around now
I'm free of shackles and chains
No more strings attached 'round here
It's time to take a hold of the reigns
I was speaking out in silence
But no one ever heard
Nothing more than whispers cause you're...
Getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Drop the leash, I've been released
I'm standing my ground now
I keep up my defense
My own two feet on the level field
Instead of sitting on the fence
Don't wanna hear voices
Spinning round my head
You can't tell me what to do now no more
I'm keeping it to myself
Well I was backed into my corner
But no one ever saw
Dreams on hold, you pinched them, woke me up
Getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Drop the leash, I've been released
Drop the leash, I've been released
I'm moving for no one
The lights have started shining on in
I'm not giving an inch anymore
'Cause the chances are so slim
Hold my head up high now
I blow smoke in your eyes
Your vision's a blur and a kiss
You're Muzzle #1
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Getting in the way, getting in the way
Drop the leash, I've been released
Drop the leash, I've been released
I've been released...
I've been released...
