 The rest is just the main riff 
  
 A thorn in my side 
 and you live just to pull me down 
 rusted nail I stepped on this infection 
 A thorn in my side 
 You're full 
 I think so 
 of Anger 
 You need to sit down 
 and stay down 
 these things you want but don't get 
 Is that fair? 
 I don't think so 
 A sure thing that you can count on 
 a big depression 
  
 Your praise is two faced 
 and you're cut down my friend
